1325.Battle of Semirres Planet (5)
A large group of V-19 fighter jets in the sky are doing their best to bomb the ground, but they still cannot stop the tidal offensive of robots and Semirians.
Kato on the side was holding a telescope, and he could see more clearly.
Even the desperate expressions of those Galactic Republic soldiers can be seen clearly!
Not only that, their existence seemed to have been discovered, as three new tanks were seen separated from Separatists, rushing towards them! This new tank turret is small and set back, has Group Four tracks, and looks like a scorpion.
The radar of their AT-TE walker is broken, but the radar of Separatists is not!
"We have been discovered! Get ready to fight!" Kato shouted, "Take out the rocket launcher quickly! The opponent has three tanks!"
Before he finished speaking, he only heard a bang, and there was a violent explosion next to him! Those tanks are firing!
Peter-Ander Sen and others quickly retreated and ran towards some of the destroyed buildings around them.
boom! boom! boom!! The three tanks began to bombard them with high-explosive shells, and then rolled over the hill with great horsepower. But just after turning over, the AT-TE on Galactic Republic fired!
boom!! A violent explosion set off, and one of the Scorpion tank was affected by the explosion. The huge power even lifted the tank's body a little, one track was broken, and the tank's body tilted and stopped.
The AT-TE commander's roar came from the communication, "Come on you scum! Try the power of 'Little Bean'!!"
Peter-Ander sen saw that the remote-controlled turret on top of the Scorpion tank in front of him was still turning, aiming at the AT-TE. He quickly ran out, took off a grenade from his waist and threw it away.
boom! The grenade exploded, but this fragmentation grenade had no effect on the tank, but it seemed to startle the gunner inside, and the shot actually went crooked.
Before he could react, Kato on the side had already knocked him to the ground!
The next second, boom! boom!!! Two anti-tank rockets were launched, hitting Scorpion tank! The sand and dust blown up by the powerful explosion hit Ander Sen's back, causing burning pain.
However, when I looked up, I saw that the Scorpion tank had not been destroyed yet! Only the tank burst into flames.
The hatch opened, and two B-1 combat robots climbed out, holding fire extinguishers in their hands. But they were instantly destroyed by a burst of fire from the angry Peter-Ander sen.
However, on the other side, the AT-TE walking machine 'Little Bean' that came with them was not so lucky.
The other two Scorpion tank took advantage of their mobility to directly flank the walking machine. With just this simple tactical action, the walking machine was completely unable to react!
The AT-TE walker uses six mechanical legs and is very inconvenient to turn. Moreover, the four anti-infantry scattering laser cannons on the front do not have a turret and can only rotate at a limited angle. It is useless against the opponent's heavy armor units. Not only that, the heavy howitzer on the back of the walking machine cannot hit nearby units due to the problem of shooting range.
Having said all this, it boils down to one thing - facing a flexible and fast assault armored unit like Scorpion tank, AT-TE has no power to fight back unless accompanied by a large number of infantry!
The AT-TE is a very excellent tactical walking machine, but its main function is to provide long-range fire reinforcement and transport infantry to fight an armored decisive battle, which is definitely not what they are good at.
boom! boom! boom!!! The side armor of 'Little Bean' was hit continuously by the main gun of Scorpion tank, and was penetrated instantly. In a violent explosion, 'Little Bean' exploded and disintegrated, turning into a pile of scrap metal!
And the two Scorpion tank also began to turn their turrets and began to aim this way!
"Asshole! Run!!" Peter-Ander sen panicked, yelled and ran away.
He didn't have any courage to face this 66-ton heavy piece of iron that hit him at a speed of 70 kilometers per hour!
One day later...
The light rain fell on this city called Manka, extinguishing the once scorching flames of war... A furry hand stretched out, caught some rainwater, and looked at the black impurities mixed in the rainwater.
How ironic that the billowing smoke of the battlefield carried the soot into the sky, and then was thrown back by nature with rain.
"Two days, 120,000 people." The speaker was a clone Commander wearing a blue helmet. "We cannot afford such losses."
Standing in front of him was a man with hair as thick as steel needles and a protruding mouth. He looked like a werewolf, but he was wearing Jedi Knight warrior uniform and stood majestically.
Fourth Army Third Sub-fleet belongs to Jedi Master, Wilhuff-Monn.
"Blood debt must be paid with blood." Monn said.
Although it is brief, it contains murderous intent and makes people's hair stand on end.
Monn's nose twitched and came to the other side. There is a destroyed AT-TE walker here, and not far away there is the wreckage of a Scorpion tank. Judging from this position far away from the main battlefield, it should be that the team deviated from the direction when landing, then landed and became a lone army, and was annihilated by Separatists.
He knelt down and saw a corpse that was half buried among the ruins of a building. He dug around and took off a soldier tag from the neck of the corpse. I picked it up and looked at it. It read - 'Private, Peter-Ander son'.
Monn put the soldier card into the pocket on his waist, stood up and continued moving forward.
"You have collected hundreds of soldier cards along the way, General." Clone Commander said.
"Pain makes me strong." Monn turned sideways and said, "Only when you are strong can you win."
"What you said doesn't sound like what Jedi Knight said at all, but I like it very much." Clone Commander shrugged.
The communicator in Monn's hand rang. He pressed the button, and the figure of Third Sub-fleet Commander Lieutenant General Alfonso appeared in the holographic projection, "General Monn, now my ship The team has to retreat. The Behemoth-classs from Separatists are too threatening. We have already lost two Hunter Classs and two more were severely damaged. We may not be able to provide support in the next few days."
"Here, leave it to me." Monn nodded and closed the communication.
"General Monn, although we used Orbital Bombardment to temporarily block Separatists's counterattack, the fleet is already retreating. The situation will be very unfavorable if it continues. Our Clone Army numbers are too small to play a decisive role." Clone Commander said worriedly.
"120,000 people died in two days, and the formation of the 243rd, 244th, and 245th Natural Legions was almost broken up." Another clone, Commander, also said, "Now their morale is low."
A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Monn's mouth, "Of course there is a chance for victory."
