588, Death Beam

Boom! boom! Boom boom boom!!!

Dozens of kilometers away, the heavy artillery behind the 48 AT-TEs opened fire. At this distance, affected by the curvature of the planet, straight-line energy attacks were not effective. Therefore, Shen-Qiaoen dropped his troops tens of kilometers away from Mount Kolvister, and continued shelling at the maximum range to test the firepower deployment of Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Shen Qiaoen didn't know what happened at Mount Kolvister, but under the guidance of the Force, he knew that the closer he got there, the greater the danger.

The warning of death really came from the guidance of the Force.

"Calibrated distance 41.879, fire!!" the clone officer gave the order, and the heavy cannon on the AT-TE behind him spurted out a stream of angry flames. Large-caliber high-explosive shells were shot out instantly, falling on the heads of the robot army with a whistling sound.

boom!! A violent explosion set off, and although the formations of these robots were spread out, more than a dozen robots were still destroyed by the shock wave of the explosion.

"Master, the radar shows that Separatists began to divide the robot army into six directions and attack simultaneously. I have never seen Commander that can command the robot to this extent..." Stam Reese said while standing next to an AT-TE.

"Listen to the voice of the earth and follow the guidance of the Force." Shen Qiaoen said in a deep voice, "The crisis has not disappeared, and is getting stronger."

"What makes me uncomfortable is that we still don't know what the opponent's trump card is. I just counted that the opponent has a total of 50 Diamond-class transport cruiser, which means they carry about 100,000 troops. With such a number, it would have been impossible to capture the Mount Kolvister." Stam-Reese said.

"Perhaps, this is power of the Dark Side." Shen Qiaoen said lightly, and then said to the clone Commander on the side, "The opponent's troops are divided into six groups, and we also divided our troops into six groups to attack."

"Master, the opponent's troops have an absolute advantage, so..."

Shen Qiaoen looked forward, and in his eyes, he could see the darkness in that direction. His expression became more solemn, and he just nodded without speaking.

Boom! boom! boom!! AT-TE is still firing bombardments, but after all, it is not a professional self-propelled artillery. The number of high-explosive shells they carry is limited, and naturally they cannot stop the robot army from attacking from six directions at the same time.

In fact, firing all the artillery shells in advance at such a distance is quite dangerous for the subsequent battle. After all, in the battle between the two armies, this kind of long-range direct firepower is still very important, but Shen Qiaoen still made this choice.

Among the hundreds of dead ends in Force sense, he found such a narrow escape path.

As the distance between the two sides continued to get closer, the robot army's artillery fire also fell on Clone Trooper's position. At this moment, Shen Qiaoen's expression suddenly changed. He suddenly hugged Stam Reese and tried his best to lift the Force and dodge to the side.

He fully unfolded his the Force, no longer caring about the other people around him, and just jumped up with all his strength, covering several meters in less than a second, and then threw Reese forward suddenly.

Almost at the same time, a thick green light shone instantly, with invincible power, directly hitting the AT-TE walking fuselage next to where they were standing just now.

Boom~~~~~~

The AT-TE walking machine's body was immediately vaporized, leaving only the lower half of the body and six mechanical legs. Even this last part completely melted within a few seconds.

This terrible blow directly penetrated Republic clone army's position, and even formed a ravine 5 meters wide and 2 meters deep on the ground! The melted molten iron and Rock even formed a small river in the ravine! Not to mention a person, even smaller vehicles, such as hoverbikes, can't even leave any traces!

"Master!!" Stam Reese quickly got up from the ground and saw Shen Qiaoen lying not far in front of him. The waterproof fabric windbreaker on his body was already burning.

He quickly stepped forward, raised his hand and pushed, the Force set off a strong wind to extinguish the flames. He quickly went up and hugged Shen Qiaoen, "Master! What's wrong with you? Master!"

He understood that if his master hadn't reacted in advance and pushed him away, this terrible attack would have killed him, and there would be no chance of survival!

Shen Qiaoen was obviously seriously injured because he was affected by the terrible high temperature around the beam just now. The burning tarpaulin windbreaker burned the skin on his back beyond recognition, turning it black. He moved his lips and said in an imperceptible voice, "Destroy this weapon... otherwise... disaster... don't... worry about me..."

After saying that, he struggled to get up, sat down on the ground, and began to meditate.

Stam-Reese nodded seriously, he knew what his master meant. Judging from the power of this attack, if this weapon is not destroyed, even if they bring reinforcements, if the 150,000 troops on board the 15 Acclamator-class assault ships on the way arrive here, the result can only be a catastrophic massacre!

You must know that among the 150,000 troops they brought, there were only 16,000 Clone Army, and 6,000 of them are here. The training and discipline of other natural soldiers cannot meet the requirements. Once there is a rout, it will definitely be a chain reaction!

Stam Reese quickly called a medical soldier and asked him to give Shen Qiaoen emergency treatment. He pulled out Lightsaber and began to gather the Clone Army that had been scattered by the previous attack, preparing to launch a counterattack.

At this time, the terrifying green beam attacked again, but not in this direction. It seemed that this super weapon was destroying the artillery position of their AT-TE walkers at a fixed point. It was sheer bad luck that they were attacked first where they were.

"Commander, our radar has locked the opponent's position of 'Death Beam'!" A clone officer ran over and said loudly. He gave this unknown and terrifying attack an equally terrifying name.

"Gather all the troops and launch a counterattack there! Destroy 'Death Beam' at all costs!" Stam Reese's eyes turned red and he gave the order for a general attack.

"Yes!" The clone officer immediately stood at attention and saluted, and said in the communication, "Notify all units to launch a combined attack. The target is Separatists's secret weapon, 'Death Beam'!"

Jon Shen had already divided the clone troops into six groups before. Now the six groups of armies immediately launched a counterattack from different directions. They faced a robot army that was three times their size without any fear, and they counterattacked brazenly!
