1332. Secret Weapon (Part 1)
Semirres Planet, outer orbit, Galactic Republic fleet flagship.
"General Davis, the radar department just sent a notification that our hyperspace sensor has responded." The adjutant came over and said to Fleet's Highest Commander, General Davis.
"This should be Separatists's reinforcements. Now we are deep behind enemy lines. This is not surprising." General Davis said lightly. "Now Trench's offensive is very fierce. I have to admit that it can be seen from this rigorous formation. Even I have too much to learn from him in terms of fleet command. But it is a pity... This time he must swallow the bitter pill of failure."
"The seventh formation immediately retreated! Attract the firepower of the Separatists battleship! Test whether they can destroy their formation! The eleventh formation immediately carried out a large-scale detour towards the north pole of the planet!" General Davis did not take the adjutant's words to heart, and he immediately devoted himself to the fleet command again.
The adjutant felt a little uneasy when he saw General Davis's appearance, but due to his duty, he continued, "General, it's just that this situation is a bit strange. Because judging from the hyperspace fluctuations, the approaching ones are at least of the battlecruiser level and should not be a transport fleet. However, the landing point of their hyperspace jump is on the outskirts of Semirres system's planet. In other words, they are at the outermost edge of this galaxy. General, although it is not a big deal, I think there must be some conspiracy behind Separatists's behavior!"
"The edge of the galaxy? If that's the case, then you don't need to worry about it. If you use Sublight to sail, it will take almost a day to fly from Planet 7 to Semirres Planet. With this time, you can see everything clearly on the other side." General Davis waved his hand.
But he looked back at the adjutant, who was almost sweating on his forehead. He didn't want to embarrass him too much, and said, "Okay, what you said makes sense. This situation is indeed a bit abnormal. Arrange a Kallak-class light cruiser to bring a fighter squadron to this direction to guard it."
"Yes! General." The adjutant immediately stood at attention and saluted, then turned around and began to arrange work.
At the edge of Semirres system, 0.0019 light-years away from Semirres Planet, white light flashed violently. The shapes of the three warships were completely different from any known warships in the galaxy. The warships with a length of more than 1,000 meters left hyperspace and appeared in this silent cosmic space.
They didn't move at all. After leaving hyperspace, they just stopped here quietly.
After Semirres Planet campaign was launched, although the combat fleet was in great embarrassment, Confederacy of Independent Systems was not stingy at all in terms of other supplies.
Trade Federation and Corporate Alliance also shipped a large number of robots and supplies to assist in their operations.
In the past few days, various transport fleets have been arriving in an endless stream, almost never stopping.
However, Galactic Republic fleet has not relaxed its interception and blockade of these fleets at all. As long as a transport fleet comes, Light Cruiser Squadron will immediately cooperate with the fighter formation to intercept. In the past few days, the escort fleet and the interceptor fleet have won and lost each other. This has also become a continuous peripheral conflict in addition to the main battlefield on the planet's surface and in space.
However, today's transport fleet is somewhat different.
With a flash of white light, a Behemoth-class battlecruiser and a CSS-1, Galactic Republic-class large shuttle that had been modified at a glance appeared in the outer space of Semirres Planet, and flew directly towards Semirres Planet without any pause.
CSS-1 is a product of Corellia Engineering Company, and its sales volume is very wide, so it is not surprising to see it even on Confederacy of Independent Systems. But this large shuttle is obviously different!
The original standard size of 80 meters was expanded to 105 meters. The originally round and beautiful shell became angular after the addition of heavy armor. In order to meet the expanded size, the spacecraft's engine was also modified. The entire spacecraft has almost reached the standard of Galactic Republic frigate.
The most obvious thing is that there is a large hemispherical structure bulging under the center of the spacecraft, which looks like it is pregnant.
After being modified in this way, the CSS-1 Galactic Republic-class large shuttle, which was originally very beautiful and was often used as a ship for ambassadors from various planets, became particularly ugly.
General Trench has already received the news. He commanded the fleet to start moving closer to the two-ship formation. On the one hand, he received the Behemoth-class battlecruiser as their new reinforcements. On the other hand, he protected the modified CSS-1 shuttle from entering the atmosphere of Semirres Planet.
Republic fleet naturally learned the news immediately, and General Davis sent Third Sub-fleet, led by Lieutenant General Alfonso, to intercept.
Semirres Planet ground battlefield, Tortok City direction.
Galactic Republic The defense line of the natural army in this direction was already shaky. Their front was penetrated by Lieutenant General Dai Hongkui, and the overall formation was divided into two parts. And the follow-up troops led by Asajj-Ventress immediately caught up, trying to use their numerical advantage to divide and surround Republic army.
And if it weren't for the powerful fire support of the Acclamator-class assault ship in the sky, which caused serious losses to the Asajj-Ventress troops, this battle would have turned into a massacre.
But even so, Semirians began to deploy a large number of air defense forces and launched a fierce attack on the Acclamator-class!
Hundreds of anti-aircraft missiles bombarded the battleship Deflector Shield almost all the time. There were also a large number of anti-aircraft guns, laser cannons, and even some gunpowder anti-aircraft guns left over from the previous era. In short, anything that can target the air was used by Semirians for the final bombing of this landing ship!
Asajj-Ventress no longer went to the front line to fight. She stood in the open space in front of the temporary command post, with a pair of cranks Lightsaber pinned behind her waist, looking at the sky in silence.
Firecloud caused by atmospheric friction suddenly appeared in the sky, and then a modified CSS-1 shuttle swooped down, lowered its altitude in an almost violent attitude, and hovered at low altitude.
It can be seen that the shuttle body is damaged in many places. It is obvious that the process of breaking through the outer reaches of the planet and intercepting Republic fleet is not that simple.
The hatch opened, and a figure appeared at the hatch. He jumped out without taking any measures!
boom!!!! There was a loud noise, and a big crater was made in the hardened ground! In the middle of the pit, there stood a man who was 3 meters tall and wearing a terrifying mechanical armor. Almost every inch of the armor was filled with murderous weapons!
If Asajj-Ventress hadn't known him for a long time, you would have thought that this guy was a complete robot at first glance.
"You're here, Durge (Durge). You'd better tell me that Count Dooku's secret weapon is still intact." Asajj-Ventress's tone was still so annoying, but her expression became much more relaxed.
Super mercenary Durge, he and Ventress are already old partners who have experienced many battles. The main reason why he ranks behind Jango-Fett and Cade-Bane in the mercenary world is that he almost always acts alone and rarely takes action, so it must be a big deal.
"It's intact and can be used at any time." Durge said, his voice was covered by the mechanical helmet and processed by the loudspeaker, sounding like a beast roaring.
"But please send this thing to me first. It's a long way from here to Capital District." Asajj-Ventress said.
"It doesn't matter. According to Count Dooku's commission, all I need to care about is the effect of this weapon." Durge said coldly, "As for those who came from Dawn Star Planet, I don't trust them."
