404. War in the Desert (Part 2)

The news of the attack on Sabos Factory has not yet come. In the palaces of Mos Eisley City and Hutt Jabba, the holographic projections of another Hutt, Gaddula-Besadi are greatly displayed in front of Jabba.

"Your good days are over! Jabba!! Tatooine is mine! Mine!! Take your Desilijic kajidic dogs and get out of here!!" Gaddula shouted arrogantly with Hutt language. She was so excited that she kept waving her two short hands.

"I'm glad to see you crawling out of a ravine in Tatooine, Gaddula. This time, no one can save you! Not even the Grand Hutt Council's Alok!" Jabba didn't take Gaddula seriously at all. In his opinion, Gaddula was hiding deep in the desert of Tatooine. It was a good thing if he could save his life, but he dared to show up?

Jabba never thought that Gaddula could do anything while hiding in the desert of Tatooine. His mercenaries and bounty Hunter were monitoring the entire Tatooine at all times, and even if a bug wanted to come in, he would have to nod.

As for his upright friend Yifent-Meng's information was invaded by Super Lotus, which caused Fourth Civilization to crack the communication between him and the bounty Hunter long ago, and then used Jabba has never thought about using 'Black Ship' to cover one transport ship after another when Ironfang is moving to the valley where Gaddula is hiding!

Later, Helmut-Baron Zemo brought a group of mercenaries to ask for wages. When the two sides were arguing with each other, Baron Zemo also took advantage of the gap to send a lot of materials, including 90,000 tons of high-quality aviation alloy sent by Hutt Alok-Besadi.

Of course, Jabba was very happy that Gaddula-Besadi, the thorn in his side, came to his door.

He slammed the communicator on the head of Hunter, the bounty on the opposite side, and muttered a few words in Hutt language.

"The powerful Jabba said that Gaddula has appeared. Track her signal and capture her. The dead Gaddula 5 million Upiupi coin, the living Gaddula 20 million Upiupi coin." The etiquette robot next to him quickly translated.

"Leave it to me, Lord Jabba!" Bounty Hunter looked fierce.

"Smart Jabba said that IG-41 will also go with you." the etiquette robot said.

As soon as it finished speaking, a IG-series assassin droid, which looked like it was spliced together from bamboo poles, walked in from outside the door. Seeing this robot, a hint of fear flashed in the eyes of the bounty Hunter, but he did not dare to disobey Jabba's wishes, and quickly turned around and left with several of his subordinate leaders.

At this time, the etiquette robot received a communication. It came to Jabba and said, "Merciful Lord Jabba, I just received a communication that Sabos Factory was attacked and the entire factory was evacuated. More than 30 people patrolling around were killed, and two spacecraft were also shot down."

With a bang, Jabba's little short hand punched the table, and Hutt language roared loudly, "Gaddula Why do we still have an army! You bunch of trash! Get out of here all of you! If you don't catch Gaddula, you are not allowed to come back!!"

The etiquette robot quickly translated his words.

Those who were able to enter the Jabba palace were all leaders of the bounty Hunter and mercenary gangs. Seeing Jabba's wrath, they who had been drinking and having fun just now also showed cruel expressions. They saluted Jabba one by one and filed out.

However, just when the bounty Hunter bosses were about to go back to gather their troops, the other corner of Mos Eisley City was bombed again! We also didn't see who the culprit was, we could only see the rockets that suddenly appeared out of thin air.

Jabba's bounty Hunter immediately took off more than ten spaceships, large and small, of all models. These spaceships flew straight in the direction of the attack like vultures.

However, they found nothing except the burning house at the scene of the explosion.

The spacecraft hovered in the sky for a while, without a clue. Then on the ground, dozens of bounty Hunter were fully armed, wearing goggles and cloaks, riding hoverbikes and speeding towards the outskirts of the city.

But they searched for half a day and found nothing.

The spacecraft with bounty Hunter turned on its radar and continuously scanned, and continued to expand the search range along Mos Eisley City, but there was still nothing within 200 kilometers around the city.

At this moment, news came again that a space port in the north of the city had been attacked!

Bounty Hunter flew the spaceship again, but still found nothing, the other party seemed to have disappeared!

Suddenly, a bounty Hunter piloting the Z-10 Explorer spacecraft discovered the clues with the help of his spacecraft's more advanced sensing system. He loudly said, "There is a weak radar signal at 11 o'clock!!"

Four other bounty Hunter spacecraft responded immediately nearby, turning around and flying towards this side.

The pilot of the Z-10 Explorer spacecraft (the easter egg in Chapter 26 is pictured) immediately connected to the message of the other bounty Hunter, "Everyone, pay attention! I caught the other party's tail! They seem to have counter-detection means!"

"Follow them! I still have a few brothers nearby! I'll let them catch up along the ground!" One of the bounty Hunter bosses immediately ordered more than 20 of his men to drive hoverbikes in that direction.

The Z-10 spacecraft followed closely. After flying about 300 kilometers, four obvious signals suddenly appeared on the spacecraft's radar! Turning on the optical detection, I saw only 4 aircraft painted in khaki in front of me!

These four fighters are about 18 meters in length and are driven by a pair of ducted turbine engines. It is obvious that this is a dedicated fighter aircraft for use in the atmosphere! This is really rare to see on a planet like Tatooine!

"Enemy target found! There are 4 fighter jets!" the Z-10 spacecraft pilot shouted.

Several other bounty Hunter spacecraft accelerated immediately, and their radars also detected these 4 Banshee Fighters at the same time!

"Catch up! This kind of fighter must have a base!" The bounty Hunter piloting the Z-10 spacecraft was very knowledgeable and made an immediate judgment.

At this moment, the radar on his spacecraft suddenly sounded a piercing alarm! He looked down and was shocked, "Six more targets have appeared!"

Six fighter jets shaped like flat triangles suddenly appeared in the sky. These six fighter jets swooped down with their backs to the dazzling light of the star Tatoo I, and then directly launched 12 air-to-air missiles!

"Careful! Missiles!!" the pilot screamed. The one in charge of the turret among his crew members immediately locked onto the incoming missiles. The blaster cannon fired continuously. Several missiles were intercepted immediately, but the six fighter jets kept firing missiles!

Wave after wave, they fired three times in succession, and a total of 36 missiles were fired densely! Then a dazzling purple laser was fired from the front of these fighter jets!

Uh-huh!! The purple laser instantly swept across the Z-10 Explorer spacecraft, and the shield value dropped sharply!

Then, boom! boom! boom! boom! Company One string explosion came! They are several other spaceships with bounty Hunter! They also failed to intercept all the missiles, and three spacecraft were shot down immediately!

"Retreat! Retreat!!" Bounty Hunter exclaimed loudly, but the six fighter jets had already charged forward! This kind of fighter is extremely flexible, the purple laser is very powerful, and the missiles they carry are also very advanced. The other remaining bounty ship, Hunter, entered a dogfight and was shot down before it could last long!

No doubt about it! This is an advanced fighter jet specially designed for combat within the atmosphere!

"Open the shield to the maximum! Let's retreat! Run, run!" The pilot of the Z-10 Explorer-class spacecraft shouted hysterically. The co-pilot quickly added all the energy supplies to the shield, and boom! boom!! The spacecraft was hit by two missiles, and the shield rippled, but it finally withstood it.

"Tell Lord Jabba! It's in this direction! They must have a base! It's in this direction!!" the driver shouted.

However, these were the last words he said.

The six strange fighter jets reorganized their formation again and launched another salvo, with 12 air-to-air missiles shooting out!

boom! boom! boom!!!

At this time, those bounty Hunter riding hoverbikes on the ground were also attacked. 15 Pathfinder-class assault vehicle appeared in their sight, and 15 twin six-barreled remote-controlled electromagnetic machine guns turned their muzzles and faced them coldly.

~~~~~~~~There was a continuous sound of gunshots.

The firepower of a 12-meter-long armed off-road vehicle and the firepower of those suspended motorcycles are not at the same level.
