1563. Cage of trapped beasts (Second Systems Army's doomsday-6)
The coverage of this EMP reaches thousands of kilometers. Even though Republic fleet has begun to evade in advance, some warships are still affected. Galactic Republic is researching ways to counter Conqueror-class battleship, and the scientists at Confederacy of Independent Systems are naturally competing to further improve their weapon designs.
The one currently used on Destruction battleship is the improved version 2.0 Directional High-Energy EMP Cannon. The most important improvement is the range and diffusion speed of EMP (in the plot, Anakin-Skywalker drives a spaceship to hide from EMP).
Including the CR-70 frigate, those small and medium-sized warships simply cannot resist this wide range of EMP! All electronic systems of the battleships it passed were paralyzed, and their engines lost all power, floating in space.
However, Hunter Class Battlecruiser was able to withstand Destruction's EMP this time. Although most of the electronic systems of the three affected Hunter Class were still paralyzed, the most critical energy system was still preserved, allowing the warships to withdraw from the battlefield as soon as possible.
In addition to the key protection of the energy system, there is another system on Hunter Class Battlecruiser that is protected by a complete set of defense systems for EMP, and that is the communication system. This ensures that if the warship is attacked by Conqueror-class battleship, it will at least have the ability to send back the news of the attack. It will not be like Malevolence who was unable to send back a single word, and in the end he almost put Ploo-Master Kong there.
This time, Severance-Tann immediately rushed in this direction after launching the directional EMP. Destruction battleship is equipped with medium-sized Turbolaser guns. Although there are as many as 500 twin turrets, it still suffers a big loss in terms of effective range. In order to maximize its firepower, it must be closer.
"Hmph! Seeking death!" Mace-Windu saw Destruction not retreating but advancing, with a look of a fish-or-death battle, and sneered, "All warships are firing on all cylinders! Completely destroy Destruction!!"
Galactic Republic's battleships and fighter jets immediately poured artillery fire on Destruction.
But then they discovered that it was not easy! Although the 500 twin-mounted medium-sized Turbolaser guns installed on the Destruction do not perform well in attacking opponent's warships, as a multi-functional artillery, its performance against fighter jets is very good.
The 500-gun turret had almost no dead spots for firepower. Under the powerful and advanced fire control system, those Galactic Republic V-19 Torrent light fighters were shot down in large numbers, and it was difficult for the Y-wing bombers covered by them to get a chance to drop bombs at close range.
In addition, Republic fleet's formation was very scattered, and Destruction also continued to launch EMP cannon to interfere. This actually allowed Destruction's formation to directly enter the interior of Republic fleet, with the momentum of directly piercing it with a stick!
At this time, the other two fleets sent by Master Windu to intercept Destruction also entered Antewei System, and only then did they understand the intention of Severance-Tann to take the initiative!
Destruction has rushed deep into the formation of the fleet where Master Windu is located, but is getting further and further away from the other two squadrons. If Destruction had continued to stay near Antewei Planet at that time and resisted, there would undoubtedly be a situation where it would have been surrounded by now!
But now, there are not only Destruction's directional EMP, but also five Behemoth-class battlecruiser's powerful Yamato Cannon. This means that Galactic Republic's warships simply do not dare to appear in front of Destruction, and can only break in from the side and rear to make a cold shot.
So the battle situation became a situation where Destruction led the small fleet to continuously attack the fleets of Mace-Windu, while the other two fleets of Galactic Republic could only chase after them.
In a short period of time, Galactic Republic fleet's quantitative advantage cannot be brought into play.
And Severance-Tann, what he wants is this 'short time'!
Destruction battleship has changed direction and is flying towards the asteroid belt beyond Antewei Planet. As mentioned before, as a young galaxy, Antewei System's star-making movement has not yet ended. There is only one formed planet, Antewei Planet, in the entire galaxy. Outside the orbit of Antewei Planet, there is an asteroid belt, and it is also filled with a large number of Electromagnetic Nebula.
Perhaps in hundreds of millions or even billions of years, these asteroids and nebulae will gradually form two, three or more planets, and then throw more matter into other orbits during mutual collisions, forming new planets one after another, making this galaxy lively.
But now, these early planetary materials will become the best hiding place for Destruction!
Seeing Destruction's movements, Mace-Windu clenched their teeth, and the expression on their faces gradually became ferocious, "What? You still want to run? Chase after me! We can't let Destruction run away! Blood debt must be paid with blood!!"
He looked at the holographic star map again and snorted coldly, "Prepare my fighter jets! Arrange another formation of Y-wing bomber, and I will personally lead the team out!"
"Yes!" Fleet Commander quickly made arrangements, and finally he said carefully, "General Windu, the information we just obtained from local communications confirmed that the other party's Commander is Sefrans-Tann..."
"So what?" Mace-Windu gave him a cold look.
"This...Sefrans-Tann is a famous general from Separatists. He has never been defeated on the battlefield..." Fleet Commander said in a low voice.
"No defeat? Huh! I remember that she was chased like a lost dog by Shen Qiaoen, my former disciple!" Mace-Windu said.
"But...General Windu, Sefrans-Tann she..."
Mace-Windu waved his hand, "I know that she is very good at commanding the fleet, and no one can defeat her in the military formation. But now, she only has so many troops in her hands! If we don't seize the opportunity to eliminate her now, will we have to wait until she leads the army? By then, can you ensure victory over her?"
"This..."
"Attack!!" Mace-Windu ignored the obedient naval general and turned around and walked out.
"..." Fleet Commander hesitated, but Windu ignored him at all and walked out of the bridge in a few steps and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
"General Sophronos... Do you think there might be a problem this time?" the staff officer next to him came over and asked.
"If it is my military common sense, I don't know how much room Destruction can struggle this time. Their retreat has been cut off, and Separatists has no direction to send reinforcements. This is a strangulation battle with absolute advantage." General Sophronos sighed, "But the opponent is Sefrans-Tann!"
