1331. The battle situation reverses

Woo~~~Woo~~~Woo~~~Semirren City The piercing air defense siren sounded again in the sky!

Residents in the city entered air raid shelters in an orderly manner, waiting for this wave of bombing to pass.

This situation has happened many times. Since the war began, Semirren City has been bombed almost every day. It's just that the Galactic Republic fighter group is more focused on precision bombing of military targets, such as anti-aircraft missile sites, armories, arsenals, or command centers, without causing much damage to civilian facilities.

The main reason is that most of the carrier-based aircraft carried by Galactic Republic fleet are V-19 Torrent light fighters and ARC-170 heavy multifunctional fighters, while the number of Y-wing bombers is very small. This is also a factor in the gradual changes in Republic fleet's combat system.

A direct consequence of this is that before Knight-class Star Destroyer and Imperial-class Star Destroyer complete large-scale installation, Galactic Republic fleet's ability to attack the planet will be compromised, because in this new generation of combat system, this role is played by Star Destroyer, whose firepower is several times more powerful than Hunter Class.

However, this time, the situation is completely different from before!

I saw thousands of V-19 Torrent light fighters swooping down from high altitude like locusts, carrying out tragic bombings on all military targets throughout the entire Semirren City!! Not only that, some fighter jets even spared places like spacious streets and squares, using blaster cannons to strafe and drop aerial bombs!

In just over 10 minutes, Semirren City was covered in thick smoke and flames! The anti-aircraft missiles, anti-aircraft guns of various calibers and laser beams launched from the ground are like raindrops flying upside down into the sky! However, the Galactic Republic fighter group hovering in the sky had no intention of leaving. They began to return after firing all their ammunition, and a new wave of fighter groups had already arrived on the battlefield!

Continuous bombing! There is no intention to give Semirians any room to respond!

Corresponding to the bombing that occurred at Capital District, Galactic Republic did not invest much air power at all on the fronts in Tortok City and New Dalan City.

So much so that in the direction of Tortok City, Scorpion tank cluster of Army Lieutenant General Dai Hongkui drove straight in, and the Acclamator-class assault ship suspended in mid-air was already visible to the naked eye!

It's not that there are no Galactic Republic fighters in these two directions, but because after most of the fighters are transferred to Capital District, the air force here is not enough to completely block the counterattacks of Ulu-Ulix and Asajj-Ventress.

After a long period of continuous bombing, Galactic Republic's real killer move finally showed its fangs!

Hundreds of LAAT/I assault transport boats appeared on the horizon, blocking out the sky and the sun!

Under the cover of fighter jets, these assault transport boats immediately launched airdrops after entering the predetermined position!

The entire Semirren Region garrison reaches 1.3 million, basically all of them are Semirians soldiers, and all their robots have been sent to the front line.

But the mobilization of these 1.3 million troops has been greatly restricted!

Galactic Republic Under the almost crazy bombing by the large number of fighter jets, the rail transportation was completely paralyzed and the main roads were blown up, making it almost impossible for this army to move.

And those who came down from these LAATs were all Clone Trooper!

In the early stages of the war, this Galactic Republic was able to compete with the tens of millions of Confederacy of Independent Systems super soldiers of the robot army with only about 2 million in number!

Now that Kamino's clone factory has been destroyed and Clone Trooper's production has dropped sharply, every Clone Trooper that has survived to this day is an elite in all battles! And he is the best among the best!

After they entered the complex environment of Semirren City, they immediately transformed into Ghost and disappeared. With their extremely high tactical literacy and combat skills, they easily destroyed the defenses of several Semirians garrisons.

The target is High Command who is Semirres Planet!

After receiving the emergency report from the capital, every Separatists military Commander in the Semirres Planet direction was shocked!

Lieutenant General Dai Hongkui, General Trench, Asajj-Ventress, Ulu-Ulix, none of them expected this - they did not expect Galaxy Republic commander to be so cruel!

They used all the natural troops of nearly 1 million as cannon fodder and bait, sacrificing the lives of these 1 million people to create an opportunity for the Clone Army to directly attack the heart of Semirres Planet!

However, after seeing the results and inferring it in reverse, it was found that Galaxy Republic commander did have a reason to do so - they only had 11 days and they had to fight quickly so as to leave themselves time to retreat.

After such a battle, it is impossible for the army of millions of ordinary people that has been deployed to wait for them to slowly board the ship and then evacuate. In other words, these people were destined to be sacrificed at least a large part from the beginning!

After convening an emergency combat meeting, these Separatists military Commander also reached an agreement.

The armored group of Lieutenant General Dai Hongkui continues to attack, regardless of losses, it will penetrate Republic army's position in the direction of Tortok City, striving to severely damage or even destroy Acclamator-class assault ship in this direction.

General Trench continued to lead the fleet to contain the main force of Galactic Republic fleet, preventing them from making any unexpected moves at this most critical time.

In view of the adventure and craziness shown by the Galaxy Republic commander in this Semirres Planet campaign, they have every reason to believe that maybe this Republic fleet is really capable of sacrificing several battleships to cover the crazy move of more Hunter Class Battlecruiser breaking into the planet's atmosphere.

Asajj-Ventress said that the secret weapon sent by Count Dooku will arrive within one day. At that time, she will carry this secret weapon and directly give a fatal blow to Republic army in the direction of Capital District.

Ulu-Ulix immediately worked with Thunbach-Tula to assemble an army as quickly as possible to back up Capital District.

After all, Ulu-Ulix has been staying in New Dalan City's command center, and he is also the one closest to Capital District among these Commander.

The armies from all walks of life immediately began to take action.

At the same time, Galactic Republic clone army has surrounded the underground command center where the Semirres Planet supreme command headquarters is located, and launched a determined attack on this command center with solid fortifications.

On this battlefield, two vigorous figures are moving rapidly. They are waving Lightsaber while rushing forward. Nothing in front of them can stop them!

Jedi Master Pawoish-Ladur, and Jedi Master Wilhuff-Monn.

They are powerful and ruthless, and they don't mind causing killings at all. Wherever he passed, Semirians soldiers were littered with corpses! In front of their keen and powerful the Force, no matter how hidden the firepower point is, they will be immediately detected, while the indestructible Lightsaber will directly cut through all the cover and bring death!

The entire top leadership, including Governor of Semirres Planet, is behind this solid fortification!
