1283. Task Force
Rendili system, Galaxy Republic task force, flagship - Arlionne (Arlionne) Knight-class Star Destroyer.
The 1,600-meter-long hull presents a sharp wedge shape, and the hull gradually becomes taller and thicker until the second half is lifted up by three additional layers of hull, with a towering bridge standing on it. Directly in front of the bridge, there are two rows of main gun emplacements. A total of 60 Taim & Bak XX-9 Turbolaser guns are neatly arranged. The cold, short and thick twin barrels are pointed straight ahead, ready to fire devastating artillery fire at any time.
Although Knight-class Star Destroyer has been off the production line for half a year, it has been continuously debugged. A few months ago, Knight-class Star Destroyer's battleship operating system was exposed to have vulnerabilities, so it was reworked again and asked Republic Sienar Systems to redesign the battleship's operating system.
Therefore, it was not until now, half a year later, that Knight-class Star Destroyer appeared on the front lines of the war for the first time.
Currently, there are three Knight-class Star Destroyers in this task force. As Kuat Drive Yards's newest warship, it is now being put in to deal with Rendili StarDrive's affairs. I have to say that this is an extremely ironic thing.
In other words, maybe this matter was done intentionally by the people over at Kuat.
On the bridge of the flagship Arlionne, Lieutenant General Galactic Republic Navy Trinald-Skarrid (Terrinald Screed) stood with his hands behind his hands, listening to the adjutant's report.
He is a young general in his 30s, with a dark complexion and a serious, calm expression. He wears a pair of lightweight power gloves with auxiliary movement functions. What is very conspicuous is that his entire left eye has been replaced with an electronic eye. The red electronic eye embedded in the middle of the hideous wound made him look very terrifying. The adjutant in front of him almost didn't dare to raise his head and look directly at him.
"Have we recaptured almost 50 capital ships?" Lieutenant General Skarrid nodded, "It's already better than expected. It's worthy of Jedi Order. Master Yoda took action personally. It's not like those despicable Separatists can resist. Get Master Yoda from me."
"Yes!" The communications soldier immediately connected the communication.
Looking at the image of Master Yoda on the screen, Lieutenant General Skarrid said in a friendly tone that did not match his ferocious appearance, "Master Yoda, thank you for your brave fighting. We will take over the next battle here. Would you like to find a place to rest and bandage it first?" He saw the wound on Master Yoda's forehead.
"The battle is far from over, Rendili Planet. There is still the possibility of division, Rendili Planet. This is not the time to rest, now." Master Yoda shook his head.
"In that case, please come to my flagship Arlionne, where you can get the best treatment. But I'm sorry, the next combat command will require me and Lieutenant General Jane Dodonna to jointly take over. You... it is best not to intervene."
His words were very firm and his meaning was clear - you Jedi Knight have worked hard, but rest now, it's none of your business.
Trinald-Skarrid is such a person. He respects Jedi Order very much and feels extremely grateful to Jedi Order for maintaining the order of Galactic Republic over the past thousands of years. But he also believes very clearly that Jedi Order has become a thing of the past, New Order of Galactic Republic, and Jedi Knight is no longer needed.
"I will provide necessary help. I will not interfere with the command of the fleet." Master Yoda was not dissatisfied, nodded and closed the communication.
Lieutenant General Skarrid connected to another communication, and another general of similar age to him but much thinner, Jan-Dodonna (Jan Dodonna), was projected in the holographic projection.
"I have to congratulate you, General Dodonna. Because of Jedi Knight's hard work, you won an opportunity to command 50 capital ships." Lieutenant General Skarrid said somewhat sourly.
He and Lieutenant General Dodonna are both comrades-in-arms and colleagues, but also in a competitive relationship. As top students who graduated from the Karida Naval Academy in the same period, and then climbed up to this level through constant battles, the result of their battle will be related to whether they can be promoted to Admiral of the Navy who can lead the fleet to fight against the forces of Separatists in the future.
"Oh, 50 battleships, which is more than double your number. Do you need me to allocate some battleships to you?" Jane-Dodonna is a very simple and straightforward person. He said this because he really wanted to allocate some battleships to Skarrid.
It's a pity that Skarrid misunderstood what he meant, and only thought that Dodonna was mocking him. He snorted coldly, "Huh! I can't stand your old junk! I just use the fleet in my hand! Rendili Planet will be mine!"
The task force he led had a total of 20 warships, including 3 Knight-class Star Destroyer, 3 Acclamator-class assault ship, and 14 Hunter Class Battlecruiser. In addition, there are Republic-class transport ship 100 ships used to transport soldiers and equipment.
These battleships were originally prepared to reinforce the counterattack fleet to fight against the battle group Separatists General Grievous gathered at Saleucami (Saleucami). However, due to the continuous major events in Core Worlds, Sheev-Palpatine intercepted this batch of reinforcements and formed a task force to send to Rendili Planet.
And Trinald-Skarrid and Jane-Dodonna are the Commander of this task force.
Jane-Dodonna reminded, "Rendili's rebels have opened Planetary Shield, and now we can only confront their fleet head-on. I think this mission is not easy."
"If it were easy, it would be enough to send you alone." Skarrid said sarcastically.
"I'm going to take over the fleet. The crews of these warships need to be reorganized. It is estimated that it will take at least two to three days... I will start work immediately." After Jane-Dodonna finished speaking, he performed a military salute and closed the communication.
At the same time, on a Victory I-class Star Destroyer that was originally a Rendili Planet Planetary Defense Fleet, a soldier came over and reported to Jedi Knight who was standing on the bridge, "General! Our fighter jets just intercepted a V-19 fighter jet. The latest friend-or-foe identification system did not respond, and there was no response in the communication. Please make your decision."
Jing Fang thought for a while and said, "Activate the tractor beam and recover this fighter jet. See who is the pilot inside."
"Yes!"
A moment later, in the medical room, Jing Fang looked at Arden-Lin who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed.
"She is Dark Side fiend more than 20,000 years ago." Master Yoda said slowly.
"I didn't know before, but now I know..." Jing Fang said, "But I still think we should save her. I think she is not essentially a bad person."
"Well..." Master Yoda shook his head but said nothing.
"General, do you need to cuff her during treatment?" a soldier asked.
"No need. If she really wants to leave, then let her leave. At least on the surface, she is working for the Republic Intelligence Department." Jing Fang said.
"What you did is right, maybe." Master Yoda sighed softly, "We are old, our generation."
