2425.Thrawn's Pincer (Part 2)
This is not a battlefield, this is hell!
The First Fleet sent out by Sefrans-Tann did achieve their goal. They did encounter Galactic Empire Northern Fleet led by Thrawn and had a fierce battle.
But judging from the current battlefield situation, they fell into the trap carefully laid by Thrawn without any precautions!
All Galactic Empire and Northern Fleet are here, 300 battleships and more than 2,000 small and medium-sized warships. This fleet is no longer very powerful on the current galactic battlefield with thousands of capital ships, but on the Northern Territory battlefield where both sides of the war are losing troops, it is still a very impressive force.
And among the heavy siege is First Fleet, whose strength is only one-sixth of Imperial fleet!
They only have 50 capital ships and 200 Light Cruiser. In this state of being surrounded, they fought hard for four full hours! If there were not 5 Divinity-class battleships in the establishment, I am afraid that now that Archangel Titan warships have rushed over, all that can be seen are fragments in the sky.
But even so, First Fleet has suffered heavy losses and can almost be removed from the list!
Five Divinity-class battleship were attacked by Thrawn led by Executor-class Super Star Destroyer. When Divinity-class battleship faced the main force of the Galactic Empire - Imperial-class Star Destroyer, it was almost crushing. Advantage, a Imperial-class Star Destroyer can't last long in front of Oracle-class. On the other hand, Imperial-class Star Destroyer's Turbolaser cannon is helpless against Divinity-class battleship's Voltage Armor Coating.
However, when Executor-class Super Star Destroyer appeared in front of Divinity-class battleship, the situation was completely different.
With a length of 19,000 meters and the firepower of 5,000 heavy-duty Turbolaser cannons, even if any one of them hits Oracle-class, it will not hurt, but the firepower of 5,000 twin-mounted turrets and a salvo of 10,000 rounds still gives Divinity-class battleship a fatal blow.
The five Divinity-class battleships blocked the attack of Executor-class Super Star Destroyer with great difficulty, so that the remaining warships could have more room to maneuver.
The previous force deployment arrangements of Sefrans-Tann have finally taken effect. These 50 battleships include 32 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser and 18 Behemoth-class battlecruiser, all of which are all-round warships that can fight and run. Moreover, Hell Angel-class has rough skin and thick flesh, while Behemoth-class and Yamato Cannon can also provide good long-range fire support. Each has its own characteristics and complements each other perfectly.
Most of the 200 small and medium-sized warships are Catalyst-class heavy destroyer and Pioneer-class light cruiser, with a small amount of Steadfast-class Cruiser. These are all the most advanced warships currently in Kingdom of Dawn. Basically, they were all newly acquired by Sefrans-Tann from the Northern Trade Alliance after they came to Northern Territory.
Because of this, with the same quantity, First Fleet can form an absolute advantage over Imperial fleet. But the problem is, the number of Imperial fleet is more than six times theirs! Moreover, they have been surrounded by the Empire battleships since the beginning of the war, and there is not much room for maneuver at all!
The battlefield was already littered with wreckage and fragments of battleships. Three of the five Divinity-class battleships were destroyed by Executor-class Super Star Destroyer during the brave battle, and the remaining two were just struggling to hold on. There are now only 14 of the 50 capital ships left, and there are now only more than 30 of the 200 small and medium-sized warships left!
It can be said that if another half hour passes, then First Fleet will really be wiped out!
Having said that, the naval officers of Kingdom of Dawn did not flinch. They persisted in resisting even in such a desperate situation. Among the wreckage and debris floating on the battlefield, there are quite a few belonging to the Galactic Empire battleship!
But now, First Fleet's bloody battle has finally received a response!
That strong white flash heralded the arrival of reinforcements, and then what appeared here was the huge, majestic figure of Archangel Titan warship!
The communication that had been completely cut off by the powerful electronic interference of Executor-class was finally answered. When the clear and loud voice of Sefrans-Tann came from the communication channel that originally had only the sound of noisy current, at this moment, many First Fleet soldiers who were roaring and fighting to the death a second ago even cried out!
The appearance of Archangel Titan warship, although only a solitary one, shows that Kingdom of Dawn has not given up on them! It also shows that the counterattack is about to begin!!
[General Tann! It is the flagship of General Tann!!]
[When will we fight back? General Tann, we are ready!]
[Now is a good opportunity! Lead us to kill these the Empire dogs! General Tann!!]
That's right, these naval soldiers who had been fighting for more than 4 hours and were on the verge of destruction, when reinforcements arrived, did not think that they would finally survive. What they want is to counterattack immediately!
To be honest, Sefrans-Tann is not a person who knows how to sympathize with her subordinates, but what makes those soldiers shout her name so sincerely and excitedly is her invincible myth!
Sefrans-Tann stood in the Emissary bridge command center. A line of tears appeared on her cheeks.
Only she knew that she was unworthy of the expectations of these warriors. Because it was her own error in judgment that sent them into this desperate trap.
The heroic words before departure turned into a complete joke at this moment.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk... First Fleet is not there yet, collapsed. the Empire's fleet is very consumed. tsk tsk tsk tsk..." General Trench stroked his chelicerae at the corner of his mouth and said, "Yes, indeed, we can launch a decapitation... operation against Executor-class. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..."
Bang! Sefrans-Tann slapped her hands on the hollow plastic plate of the console again, although her eyes were still bloodshot, although her breathing was extremely heavy and her chest was heaving violently, like an angry lioness. But after being silent for just a few seconds, she said word by word, "Telegram all warships First Fleet. From now on, all actions will be subject to the command of the flagship."
She gritted her teeth, and every word seemed to come out with all her strength, "Now is not the time to counterattack! Follow my command, with Emissary as the core, arrange a defensive formation! Cover Emissary to deploy Hyperspace Jammer, and deploy the fleet beacon!"
Under her command, the First Fleet battleships, which were still fighting on their own, began to retreat in an orderly manner.
Sefrans-Tann slammed his fists on the console again and said, "This belated decisive battle, let us... start again!"
