553. Bloody Battle Bespin (11)
Bespin Planet, Cloud City.
Huh~~~~ A formation of 5 Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets passed by at low altitude. A dense beam of explosive energy fell from the sky and hit the ground and buildings. The powerful power set off a series of Company One explosions. But that's not all. A Y-wing bomber followed closely and launched a missile directly.
boom!!! The violent explosion immediately shattered the upper floor of a building. The Y-wing bomber wanted to turn around and continue bombing, but suddenly the bomber's speed suddenly stagnated. At this time, just as it was turning, the speed suddenly dropped, and the bomber suddenly spun.
Immediately afterwards, a Stilat Class Light Corvette flew over at high speed and directly destroyed the out-of-control Y-wing bomber with just one shot. The five escorting Z-95 fighter jets immediately turned around and engaged Stilat Class. Stilat Class was extremely powerful in combat. After shooting down two more Z-95 fighter jets, they were hit by several blaster beams in succession. Their shields were penetrated and they hurried away with billowing smoke.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, officer Galactic Republic Army shouted loudly for his soldiers to move forward. The poorly equipped Republic Marine soldiers could only shout to encourage themselves, and then rushed towards the building that had just been bombarded by missiles.
Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta! Ta-ta-ta!! A crisp burst of gunfire from Company Three was heard, and the Republic Marine soldiers fell in pieces. The remaining soldiers quickly lay down and hid behind the bunker, not daring to move.
Under the ruins of the collapsed building, a large number of B-1 combat robots lined up in a loose formation, holding E-5 Blaster rifle while firing while advancing. The intensive firepower immediately made the Republic Marine soldiers dare not even raise their heads.
But is it okay not to raise your head? The robot army is getting closer and closer, constantly compressing Republic army's position.
Galactic Republic's officer yelled into the communication, "Where's my walker? Where's the artillery support? Where's the air support?!?"
"There is a Separatists stealth fighter above you, and the follow-up troops cannot be sent over!" The communication line was also shouting.
Officer Republic Army looked up and saw that the battle above Cloud City was still extremely fierce. He could also see dozens of fighter jets flying around in the sky, and fireballs exploded in the sky from time to time. It was impossible to tell what the situation was.
At this time, I only saw a LAAT-C assault transport aircraft flying over with an AT-TE walker hanging on it. However, still more than 30 meters above the ground, a missile flew from a distance and directly hit the transport aircraft!
During the violent explosion, the pilot of the transport aircraft released the hanger at that moment, and the AT-TE fell down with a roar. One of its mechanical legs malfunctioned and sparks shot out. However, he still stood up and fired fiercely at the approaching B-1 combat robot unit.
The anti-infantry scattered blaster beam equipped by AT-TE exploded with powerful lethality at such a distance, and the B-1 combat robots were destroyed piece by piece.
But then the AT-TE was hit by a heavy artillery shell, and then another one! boom! boom!!
The powerful firepower caused the AT-TE's shield to flash. The ballistic radar of the walker immediately identified the firing point, and the heavy artillery behind it also opened fire.
"They have big guns! Big guns!! Let those idiots in the Air Force do some work and find me the big guns!!" Officer Republic Army continued to roar at the communication.
But before he finished speaking, an anti-tank rocket suddenly shot out from the ruins of a building on the side, hitting the AT-TE in the middle! Then a few more were fired from the other side!
Company One The series of violent explosions made the AT-TE pilot a little confused. He only saw a few 6-meter-high humanoid mechas walking out from the front - War Wolf Mech!
These mechas fired as they moved forward. The four-unit 'Chaos' anti-tank missiles on their shoulders fired directly. More than a dozen missiles exploded on the AT-TE's shield, and the railguns in the mechas' hands were also firing continuously.
Under the powerful firepower, the AT-TE was almost unable to fight back, and the other Galactic Republic soldiers around were unable to help at all, because the Fourth Civilization infantry began a counter-assault!
Among the remnants and ruins of the building, Fourth Civilization soldiers continued to rely on the terrain and bunkers to advance staggeredly. They advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, cooperating in a tacit understanding, and working in groups of five, like ghosts. Those Galactic Republic soldiers didn't even know where their targets were, and their porous positions were breached.
The B-1 combat robot army on the front stepped over like a torrent of steel!
boom! boom! In a violent explosion, the AT-TE walker, the only support of this Republic army, was finally destroyed by War Wolf Mech, which also heralded the complete destruction of this landing force.
"Holiday Avenue's enemies have been eliminated, please give instructions." An officer from Fourth Civilization said coldly in the communication.
"Galactic Republic has established a stable landing site on the east side of Cloud City. More than 20,000 people have landed, as well as a large number of armored units. I want you to cover Siege Tank immediately heads to the casino and establishes artillery positions and anti-aircraft firepower points there. Eight Goliath Mechs have already set off and will join your troops!" said the headquarters Commander in the communication.
"Yes!"
While they were having a conversation, more than a dozen Vulture droid fighters were covering the arrival of two APOD-33 transport planes. The doors of the transport planes opened, and Goliath Mechs filed down one after another, eight in total!
"Let's go, brothers! Let's start work!" the Fourth Civilization officer yelled in the communication.
Two kilometers behind, there was a mechanical roar from a building that seemed to have collapsed. Then a Siege Tank crashed through the ruins of the building and drove out. Then several Siege Tanks drove out from other hidden locations and drove towards the target location under the control of the driver.
Marines of Galactic Republic 19th Legion directly blossomed. After breaking into Bespin Life Belt, landing operations were launched at 62 locations among Cloud City at the same time, and landings were also launched at several other Floating Citys.
But soon they were hit hard!
Fourth Civilization Army has already deployed a defensive line and is ready. With Siege Tank as the core, the B-1 combat robot army spreads out for radiation. Each Siege Tank position can protect a large area around it. The well-trained Fourth Civilization Army is like a sharp knife, attacking when Republic Marine is most vulnerable.
Galactic Republic's Marines couldn't organize a decent offensive at all in front of the Fourth Civilization Army. Although the battle examples of Sith Wars and Infinite Wars were mentioned again and again in military school textbooks, Republic Army who really listened to these things and formed muscle memory through continuous training did not have it at all!
The 62 landing sites became 62 disasters almost at the same time that the landings began! In the first hour of the battle, more than 18,000 Republic Marine soldiers lost their lives!
