I changed Chapter 1311 yesterday. If you didn't understand it before, you can check it out...
1313.Battle of Semirres Planet (1)
Kona System, on a satellite of Planet 4.
A few kilometers away, thick smoke was billowing from the wreckage of the crashed shuttle. Because of the low gravity environment here, the air was very thin, so the smoke did not rise, but spread out like a flood, forming a unique scene.
In the sky, several V-19 fighter jets were slowing down and circling around.
Gabriel-Tosh was hidden behind a piece of Rock, and his consciousness was already a little blurry. From the beginning, he was seriously injured by the Dark Side Force hidden in Sehas's body. Later, he fought against Wilhuff-Monn, the werewolf Jedi Master, and suffered more injuries.
In the end, coupled with the fact that he fell with the shuttle, it almost killed him.
But he must persevere!
Tosh took out a syringe and pierced it directly next to his wound. This is a first-aid injection developed by Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group based on the combination of T-Virus and Bacta fluid of this world. It can accelerate the growth and healing of the wound, but the side effect is that it may cause excessive growth, such as the growth of something else.
After a while, the wound began to heal visibly, but the loss of physical strength was still irreparable, and the power of the Dark Side always made him dizzy, and he still cannot use Psionics normally.
"The news... must be sent back." Tosh murmured to himself, "There is also a deeper darkness..."
He observed the flight trajectories of the fighter jets and carefully adjusted his position. He now had to make sure that the werewolf-like guy didn't come. If he came, he wouldn't have any chance.
As time goes by, the energy in the stealth combat suit becomes less and less. Once the temperature regulation system loses energy, even with the protection of Psionics, he can only survive in this low temperature environment for less than an hour at most.
Tosh could vaguely feel that the werewolf was also probing around the satellite, but he also knew that as Jedi Knight was traveling with the army, he could not stay here for too long.
However, Wilhuff-Monn's patience seemed to be greater than he imagined, and Tosh also overestimated how long he could persist despite serious injuries.
Consciousness gradually fades away...
In the haze, he seemed to feel that he was wrapped in a ball of warm energy, and then he knew nothing...
"All, Hiigaran-class battlecruiser squadron! Assault on the flanks of Galactic Republic! Tsk tsk tsk tsk... Defeat them, Aquitenes-class light cruiser." Among the flagships of the Semirres defense fleet, General Trench continued to issue instructions, commanding the fleet to resist the attack of Republic fleet.
But he was extremely anxious at the moment. He kept slapping his palms with the pointer and walking up and down the bridge.
With his formation change this time, Hiigaran-class battlecruiser began to take advantage of his speed advantage over Hunter Class Battlecruiser and launched a surprise attack on the Aquitenes-class light cruiser formation on the flank. He tried to use Tian Ji's Horse Racing strategy to eat up part of the opponent's troops first, making a good start for the subsequent battle.
But Galactic Republic Fourth Army Main Fleet Commander, Admiral of the Navy Davis is still in command, and he is also making various responses. He began to adjust his formation, but instead of letting Aquitenes-class light cruiser retreat to get cover, he let them continue to outflank them, getting further and further away from the battlefield.
His purpose is very clear. He wants to eat my Light Cruiser Squadron. Yes, but you must first accompany them around the battlefield. Even if Light Cruiser Squadron will still be eaten in the end, it's hard to say what will happen on the front line at that time.
At the same time, he ordered the Hunter Class Battlecruiser formation to continue pressing forward, and asked each Hunter Class to form a temporary combat team under the cover of those small and medium-sized warships. On the surface, they fought independently, but in fact they spread a giant net.
This is relying on his own strength advantage to attack General Trench!
Galactic Republic The group of naval officers who grew up on the battlefield are completely different from the fat-headed bureaucrats at the beginning of the war.
Even including Lieutenant General Jian-Dodonna and Lieutenant General Skarrid who are currently being lifted up and beaten by Rendili system-Sefrans-Tann, actually put them on other battlefields, they are capable enough to win - I can't say how powerful they are, but unless you can reach the level of Tann, you will have to break a few teeth to eat them.
Sure enough, as bright lights lit up on the battlefield, Hypermatter Railgun in front of Kohl-class Battlecruiser opened fire!
But this time, 20 Kohl-class fired salvos, but still had little effect. Only one Hunter Class had its shield broken and began an emergency retreat under the cover of other warships. At the same time, a large number of fighter formations also swarmed in and began to attack all Separatists warships that might launch an attack on this Hunter Class.
Don't think that people like Galactic Republic's Tactical Research Institute, Naval Academy and Supreme Strategic Command are just doing it for free. Even if they can't keep up with Fourth Civilization in terms of technological advancement, they have also developed a complete set of plans to fight against old opponents like Kohl-class.
Now when Galactic Republic confronts Separatist fleet, which includes Kohl-class Battlecruiser, Martha-class missile heavy cruiser, and Sova-class Carrier, they often adopt a relatively flexible formation tactic.
To sum up, in one sentence, the small formation made large detours and used fighter jets conservatively.
Although Kohl-class Battlecruiser and Hypermatter Railgun are powerful, they have two biggest shortcomings - slow charging and slow projectile flight speed. Of course, when it comes to slow flying speed, this is relative to Energy Weapons. However, on the scale of the space battlefield, Kohl-class Battlecruiser and Hypermatter Railgun are indeed a bit inferior.
In this case, Republic fleet dispersed his warships in small formations, forcing Kohl-class to constantly adjust his position to aim, and then exposed his flanks to other warships here.
At the same time, in order to make up for the dispersion problem of combat effectiveness caused by small formation operations, Republic fleet commander will use fighter groups more cautiously. Let these fighters mainly play the role of series connection and cover. Under this tactical thinking, Republic Navy began to carry more multi-functional fighters and Interceptor, and fewer bombers.
This changes the previous tactic of commanding a group of fighter jets to swarm forward when Republic fleet bullied Confederacy of Independent Systems fleet for having few fighter jets, and Vulture droid fighter's combat capabilities were not as comprehensive as Galactic Republic's pilot + navigation robot combination.
Equivalent to this, the Republic fleet formation will expand to a very large extent, but because of the existence of the huge fighter group, you cannot really defeat them individually. This also puts forward higher requirements for Republic fleet commander.
Maybe such tactics don't seem so scary now, but you have to know what kind of battleship is currently lying on the industrial Star Ring Kuat Drive Yards, being assembled under the work of countless engineering robots.
Imperial-class Star Destroyer and Knight-class Star Destroyer!
Even now, with Republic fleet's superior troops and reasonable tactics, even General Trench feels extremely pressured.
Now the range of Republic fleet has reached tens of thousands of kilometers! In such a dispersed formation, even their powerful Agonev-class star base was a little preoccupied with one thing and the other.
"General, Republic warship is advancing from the flank in the U-8 direction, and they are still expanding their formation." T-series tactical robot, standing next to Trench, said.
"Take off, fighter formation. Tsk tsk tsk tsk... Raid, Republic warship in the direction of U-8." Although General Trench couldn't see the expression on his spider face, it could be heard from his solemn tone that this combat mode of seeing one's tricks was actually not the rhythm he wanted.
Sova-class Carrier The four huge take-off platforms unfolded one after another, and the densely packed fighter jets took off like a swarm of bees!
CF/A-17 G, the latest model Wraith fighter and Confederacy of Independent Systems and the latest Tri-fighter flew out in groups, accompanied by a larger number of Vulture droid fighter, swarming in that direction.
Approaching the battlefield, Wraith fighter turned on their cloaking devices one after another, and after approaching the opponent, the first thing they fired was a wave of Gemini II antimatter missile volleys!
Immediately afterwards, Droid Tri-Fighter and Vulture fighter strangled Galactic Republic's V-19 Torrent starfighter!
Now Wraith fighter's stealth technology has been cracked by Galactic Republic. Their fighter jets are all equipped with the latest radar that can detect Wraith fighter. Although the detection distance is not long and the detection signal is relatively weak, it has also got rid of the previous passive situation where Wraith fighter had to completely rely on the flight control center command of the rear battleship.
A Hunter Class Battlecruiser in this direction immediately launched electronic interference, and at least half of the missiles instantly lost their targets and started flying around. At the same time, the DP-20 gunship guarding the side was also firing on all cylinders, with 8 twin-mounted multi-functional Turbolaser cannons and 6 quadruple-mounted close-range laser cannons firing wildly. This kind of spacecraft that specializes in fighting small targets is also the best at dealing with fighter jets!
Under the attack of the DP-20 gunboat, more than ten Vulture droid fighter were instantly blown into balls of fire.
More Galactic Republic fighters began to arrive from other directions. Countless explosive fireballs suddenly exploded in the U-District 8 domain, and the battle became increasingly fierce.
General Trench is very determined to prevent Galactic Republic from continuing to implement strategic maneuvers. This time he invested 500 Wraith fighter! At present, the Wraith fighter, which has been improved many times, still has a greater advantage than the V-19 fighter with little room for modification. The fighters of both sides fought frantically for more than half an hour. Finally, Republic fleet commander General Davis felt that the loss of the U-District 8 domain was too great, so the small formation of warships retreated.
He won a slight victory, but there was still no smile on General Trench's face.
On February 35th (remind me again, a year in "Star Wars" has 10 months, each month has 35 days, and there are 10 Boxing Days, making a year 360 days), Confederacy of Independent Systems finally sent reinforcements.
A formation consisting of 1 Deceiver-class destroyer, 5 Luukri-Hok-class battleship and 5 Behemoth-class battlecruiser arrived at Semirres Planet.
The screen in front of General Trench flashed, and a woman with pale skin, no hair, and dark eye shadow appeared. Although she looked weird, she was full of exotic charm.
Asajj-Ventress! Count Dooku's favorite Dark Followers.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk... Are you the reinforcement, Ventress." General Trench's chelicerae at the corner of his mouth trembled and he made a tsk-tsk sound as he said hello.
"There are no more." Ventress said coldly, "Our fleet is now very limited in number, and Galactic Republic is still moving in several battlefields in the direction of Eastern Territory. Therefore, either use this power to defend Semirres Planet, or be buried with the planet."
"Then I'm very grateful for your coming, tut tut tut tut..." General Trench replied in a gentle tone.
"Don't worry, Hatchian. You can't kill me on this battlefield." Ventress smiled coldly.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk... I will send you the battle plan." Trench got straight to the point.
"Leave it to the person next to me." Ventress pointed to a person standing next to her. "Leave the battleship to your command. Count Dooku did arrange it this way. But I, you'd better leave me alone."
The man in black robe who had been standing behind Ventress took a step forward and nodded to Trench, "General Trench, long time no see."
"General Ulu-Ulix, tut tut tut tut..." General Trench nodded.
Ulu-Ulix, can be regarded as a relatively senior person under Tang Xiao. At the beginning of the war, he killed his own Bespin Campaign Master Green Betty, surrendered Fourth Civilization, and then has been fighting for Fourth Civilization as a Dark Jedi Knight who betrayed Galactic Republic until now.
He also enjoyed all the glory and wealth because of this. After all, at that time, Fourth Civilization didn't have many useful people, but his Jedi Knight was still quite easy to use.
At least now, Ulu-Ulix wears a combat uniform made of the best biological materials, with precious gems inlaid on the belt, and wears a rare red fur cloak. This is something he never dared to think about when he was Jedi Knight.
I don't know how much power these things brought him, but at least they brought him vanity and satisfaction.
And here, the battlefield of Semirres Planet, is where he continues to dedicate his strength to the darkness, and then allows himself to gain more wealth and power!
"According to the instructions of Governor Tang and Count Dooku, I will fully cooperate with your battle, General Trench. And I always believe that victory will definitely be on our side." Ulix said with his head raised.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk... very good, very good." General Trench stroked the chelicerae at the corner of his mouth, "Republic fleet, keep unfolding, I judge... they want to force a landing, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk. You need to be prepared, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
