1229. Northern Territory Fengyun (12)
Admiral Longo's flagship was hit by two Turbolaser cannons!
One round of artillery fire landed behind the side of the battleship, near the B turret, and another round fell under the bridge. Fortunately, they were all well-protected by armor. Apart from a burst of vibration and armor falling off, there was no more damage.
As Separatist fleet's second wave of salvo fire arrived, Galactic Republic fleet, which had not raised its shield at all, began to suffer losses.
The Turbolaser cannon hit Hunter Class Battlecruiser's armor, causing bursts of violent explosions and flames.
Although most of them failed to penetrate the armor, the fire and smoke generated by the explosion had already begun to create a tragic atmosphere for the Republic fleet, which had just begun the war and was in trouble.
Republic warship also began to fire back, and a large number of fighter jets also took off.
The fleets of both sides continued to approach, and invariably activated the laser cannon at a distance of about 10 light seconds!
Thick laser beams continued to sweep across the battleships on both sides, creating ripples of energy shields and seas of fire that burned armor.
At the same time, the fighters from both sides were also strangled together!
Because this is a home battle, the fighter jets taking off from Separatists can be said to be a large group of Wuyang Wuyang. The first wave of attack groups alone has more than 6,000 fighter jets! Most of them are Vulture droid fighter, and there are a few Tri-fighter and Hyena-class Droid Bombers.
These fighter jets take off directly from the space station near the planet and do not need to occupy the transportation capacity of the battleship.
Correspondingly, although there are 60 Hunter Class Battlecruisers on the Republic fleet side, the theoretical carrying capacity reaches 24,000 aircraft, but as always, due to the losses in daily operations and the problem of pilot recruitment, they are not fully loaded.
They also have less than 10,000 fighter jets, and some of them are even Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets that are already far behind.
But don't forget there is Geth fleet!
Although Geth fleet did not take off its fighter jets immediately, it can be known from past combat experience that Geth's extremely flexible light frigates are not afraid of Galactic Republic's fighter jets at all.
Fighter clusters from both sides started a fierce battle over an area of tens of thousands of kilometers. At the same time, the gunfire from the warships on both sides also intertwined for the third and fourth time!
A violent explosion set off again, and Republic fleet, which did not raise its shield, once again suffered heavy losses.
This time, two Hunter Class Battlecruiser were hit by the opponent's powerful plasma beam. With a terrible explosion and fire, the two warships were directly blasted with a huge gap by the powerful plasma beam, and were paralyzed almost instantly.
Yamato Cannon!
Separatist fleet The defense fleet of Makito is a combined fleet of Fourth Group and InterGalactic Banking Clan. Among the main ships of this fleet, in addition to some Munificent-class communications frigate and Defiant-class light destroyer, it also includes 5 Deceiver-class destroyer and 12 Behemoth-class battlecruiser!
Especially those 12 Behemoth-classs, they are a threat like natural enemies to the Hunter Class Battlecruisers that have not raised their shields!
"General! We can't hold on like this for too long!" On the bridge of the Republic fleet flagship, the adjutant said loudly to their commander-in-chief, Admiral Longo.
"How long until the hyperspace engine can be started!" Admiral Longo asked sternly.
"I don't know... the energy index keeps beating. This time ranges from 10 minutes to 5 hours..." The hyperspace engine operator nervously looked at the changing numbers on the screen, sweating profusely.
"Why is there such a big error!" Longo yelled.
"Maybe it's electronic interference... maybe..."
"If it is electronic interference, then it will only interfere with the display of the system! It cannot interfere with the hyperspace engine!" Longo obviously doesn't understand anything.
"If that's the case... then there is hyperspace turbulence..."
"Why is there such a thing as hyperspace turbulence here?"
"Maybe it's Hyperspace Inhibitor!" said the Intelligence Department official on the side. "In both the Bespin Campaign and Eriadu battles, Separatists used this device that can interfere with hyperspace jumps. However, this device needs to be set up in advance, and is very fragile and can be easily destroyed."
"But in a situation like this... we have no ability to find Hyperspace Inhibitor!" Admiral Longo looked solemn, "And their small spacecraft that launches electronic interference, haven't they been solved yet?!"
"Those spaceships are very flexible, and although they are not armed, they have extremely strong electronic interference capabilities. Some of our lone fighter formations will even be directly paralyzed by them! So far we have only shot down 5 ships..." the adjutant said, wiping a cold sweat.
Admiral Longo looked at the picture projected on the screen. These were some optical images of this electronic warfare spacecraft captured by their fighter formation.
I only saw that this spacecraft is about 93 meters long, roughly shaped into a U-shaped catamaran, and has a large number of extremely powerful electronic antennas installed on both sides of the hull. These ships are very fast, and the readings of Deflector Shield are also very high. This is a performance obtained by completely giving up the weapon system.
"Is this the thing?" Longo looked solemn.
"We have intercepted the codename of this warship from the enemy's communications - Sentinel-class. Sentinel-class heavy electronic warfare frigate." The adjutant said, "It is these Sentinel-class that form an electronic jamming network, which almost completely intercepts our communications and blocks the energy system of our warship... It also interferes with the firing of the main gun of our warship!"
Longo clenched his fists, "Separatists Many warships have begun to use this electronic warfare technology, from the Doomsday Battlefield-class battlecruiser that appeared at the beginning, to the Xuanwu Titan warship that appeared in the Eriadu battle... Now there is another Sentinel-class?"
"Separatists obviously doesn't want to compete head-on with us on the performance and quantity of battleships. They seem to have always wanted to compete with us Asymmetrical Warfare." said the adjutant.
"But they did it!" Longo gritted his teeth.
"What should we do, General! If we continue, we may not be able to activate the hyperspace engine!" said the adjutant. "Electronic interference has greatly weakened the combat performance of our warships. If Deflector Shield cannot be turned on again, we may be completely annihilated within half an hour!"
Longo thought for a while and said, "Instruct all ships to raise Deflector Shield! Resist on the spot! Then our ship begins to retreat, away from the battlefield, continue to keep the shield down, and try to start the hyperspace engine and leave here as soon as possible!"
"Yes!"
At the same time, Makito outer orbit space station, in the command center.
"The outcome of this battle has already been known before it begins... Why waste my time?" The holographic projection on the screen projected the figure of Governor of Dawn Star Planet Tang Xiao.
"We killed a Jedi Master, which is very powerful." In front of the screen, a Geth unit said, "After comparing the database, we know his name - Sass-Ting."
Tang Xiao laughed dumbly, "Huh? Sass-Ting is dead? Hahahahaha! Galactic Republic Those people are really cooperative! If they hadn't been so smart, our plan wouldn't have been so easy to unfold!"
Thorn-Hill said, "Our plan went very smoothly indeed. Galactic Republic rushed over almost unprepared. I thought they were somewhat suspicious of the relationship between us and Geth."
Tang Xiao sneered, "It seems that Sass-Ting, the so-called highest Council member, is just a trash with no reputation. He gave his life to Caladan Planet, but he didn't get anything valuable. Well... he assassinated General Dilar. Did he think that the death of Dilar would have an impact on the war situation?"

So we have to close the city again...
