529. Fight Geonosis again (middle)
"What's going on! Galactic Republic's fighter jets suddenly increased?" General Trench, who was commanding the fleet to fight, was so shocked that he almost dropped his pointer to the ground.
"Sir, Galactic Republic took off more fighter jets, and they should have carried additional hangar bays." T-series tactical robot could not understand what happened, and could only follow its own program logic to come up with an explanation it thought was the most reasonable.
"Continue to attack! Those extra fighter jets must be fake!" General Trench said decisively.
Needless to say, those Vulture droid fighters were already fighting with more than 1,000 V-19 Torrent fighters under the guidance of the program.
I only saw one Vulture droid fighter suddenly accelerate, locking on one of the Torrent starfighter, and immediately Company One launched a series of explosive beams. However, these explosive beams passed directly through the Torrent starfighter as if they hit the air.
This Vulture droid fighter had no other ideas. The program determined that the attack had failed, and it immediately began to turn to prepare for a second attack. However, at this moment, a real Torrent fighter flew over at high speed, and the laser cannon fired fiercely, instantly blowing the Vulture fighter into pieces.
Facing the thousands of Galactic Republic fighters that were both real and illusory, Confederacy of Independent Systems's Vulture droid fighter suddenly ran around like headless flies, while the pilots on Galactic Republic's side had their morale boosted. They flew fighter jets and happily harvested among countless illusions.
The modified ARC-170 piloted by Luna-Meng and Luna-Huan looked just like Reaper on the battlefield. Every Vulture fighter they encountered was shot down easily without exception.
Luna-Meng was so excited that he was laughing and flying the fighter jet towards the most dangerous place with the most enemy planes. Luna-Meng kept reminding his sister in the earphones not to act recklessly and to be more steady.
Confederacy of Independent Systems fleet's Vulture droid fighter were shot down in large numbers, and not long after, Kallak-class light cruiser and CR-70 frigates left hyperspace and arrived at the battlefield. Not long after, 5 Acclamator-class assault ship and other small warships also arrived.
Finally, the four Invincible-class heavy cruiser's huge 2,011-meter body appeared on the battlefield. They were the largest warships here, but after all, the technology and design of more than 3,000 years ago resulted in their insufficient hyperspace engine level, and they finally arrived on the battlefield.
The so-called hyperspace engine level can be intuitively understood as how far each hyperspace jump can be. Some engines with lower hyperspace levels have a very short jump distance each time. To reach the same place, multiple jumps are required, and the engine also needs to be re-cooled and the route recalculated.
This will waste a lot of time, and the Hypermatter fuel used by the hyperspace engine will also consume a lot of fuel, and it often needs to be replenished.
Therefore, the larger and more advanced the warship, the higher the level of the hyperspace engine, and can also carry more Hypermatter fuel.
Therefore, during long-distance raids, Fleet Commander would dispatch large battleships with close hyperspace levels instead of incorporating small battleships - because this would reduce mobility.
But this time, Galactic Republic really had no choice, because the 60 Hunter Class Battlecruiser Kuat Drive Yards had previously promised to deliver were secretly revealed by Palpatine The secret was delayed, so Depa-Barris could only find such a miscellaneous army to go to Geonosis, which also led to uneven hyperspace engine levels in the fleet.
However, the reason why Depa-Barris dared to do this was because of her two most beloved apprentices - Luna-Meng and Luna-Huan!
They must be together to use the Force, which also prevents them from learning the sword skills of Lightsaber. However, their Force talent is very powerful and has a unique talent-creating illusions!
This illusion that can confuse the warship's radar is completely a battlefield-level ability!
General Trench's plan to rely on a large number of fighter jets to disrupt Republic fleet's formation and severely damage Republic fleet before the follow-up warships arrived completely failed in the face of Dream Sisters's illusion!
More than a thousand phantoms and more than 200 real fighter jets easily destroyed Vulture droid fighter's fleet. Now, General Trench had to face the almost intact Republic fleet head-on!
The high-power laser main gun of the 2011-meter-long, roughly cylindrical battleship Invincible-class was aimed at Confederacy fleet, and then opened fire directly!
The ultra-high-power laser that spread after launch but was still focused within a diameter of 5 meters instantly illuminated a Generous-class frigate. The frigate's shield sent out a piercing alarm almost at the same time, and large areas of the capacitor were burned, followed by a violent explosion!
The B-1 robot that wanted to repair and replace the capacitor was blown away by the explosion. Smoke billowed inside the Generous-class, which completely lost its combat effectiveness and floated there crookedly.
Invincible-class heavy cruiser is an old battleship that dates back more than 3,000 years. Its biggest shortcoming is that it cannot cope with the all-out attacks from many directions by today's increasingly modern star fighters. However, these battleships are big enough after all. If they are big enough, the energy will be strong enough, and the power of the main gun will be even more terrifying!
Under normal circumstances, it might only take one or two squadrons of fighter jets to make Invincible-class lose sight of the other. However, Dream Sisters's terrifying illusion covering the entire battlefield directly reversed everything. General Trench simply did not dare to take off more fighter jets to die.
In this way, the two sides launched a formation to engage in artillery battle. Republic fleet, which had the advantage in number and size of battleships, was not false at all, or in other words, they wished it was like this.
Depa-Barris gave the order, and Republic fleet all the battleships came forward.
The CR-70 frigates and Kallak-class light cruiser took advantage of their maneuverability to attack from the flanks, while the 18 Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser and 4 Invincible-class heavy cruiser escorted the 5 Acclamator-class assault ship without any tricks and pressed them directly from the front!
And after Acclamator-class and Invincible-class entered the battlefield, they took off more fighters. Now the number of Galactic Republic fighters on the battlefield has increased to more than 600, including more than 400 V-19 Torrent fighter and more than 200 Z-95 Headhunter fighters.
The number of illusions maintained by Dream Sisters still remains at more than 1,000, which is also the current limit of their capabilities.
Under the cover of these illusions, the pilot of Galactic Republic roared over in a fighter jet! General Trench took off all Vulture droid fighter and surrounded the battleship for protection, but to no avail!
Geonosis Peripheral blockade, breakthrough!
