788, I am the Calamity

When Fourth Civilization launched the general attack on the ground battlefield, the space battlefield also ushered in a turning point that was related to victory or defeat almost at the same moment.

The Enlightener killed everyone inside the Republic fleet flagship, turning the huge Prosecutor-class battlecruiser into an empty shell.

According to the battlefield regulations, Republic fleet immediately appointed a new Fleet Commander and continued to fight under the leadership of the new commander.

But the new commander still had lingering fears and had not yet recovered from the previous fear and shock. It seemed that he still had illusions about the life and death of the previous commander-in-chief, but he did not order the immediate destruction of the Prosecutor-class battlecruiser!

When he finally made up his mind and prepared to let his fleet destroy Prosecutor-class battlecruiser, it was already a step too late. Before launching Orbital Drop, the two Corsev Battlecruiser launched more than ten assault landing ships in advance, and they were filled with folded B-1 combat robots and battleship operators.

These assault landing ships sent a total of more than 500 operators to Prosecutor-class battlecruiser. Forget it if it was a Hunter Class. After all, Prosecutor-class was a warship from the previous era, and its operation method had long been semi-public.

These operators quickly recirculated the battleship's shields. When the Flame Hunter Class Battlecruiser closest to the side turned the muzzle of the Turbolaser cannon to fire here, the extremely powerful Deflector Shield blocked most of the firepower!

Immediately, the Prosecutor-class battlecruiser opened fire, firing at the surrounding Republic warship while flying quickly towards the fleet formation of Fourth Civilization.

The Terminus Planet battle has been broken for a long time. This is the literal meaning.

Whether it is the personnel, equipment, cities on the ground or the fleets in space on both sides, they are all in shreds and can basically move.

In this battle, the trump card played by the Galactic Republic 18th Army Governor Wilhuff-Tarkin is this Prosecutor-class battlecruiser.

This kind of 2,500-meter-long large warship basically never leaves the Galaxy Core Worlds. Together with the 4,000-meter Governor-class and the 8,000-meter Commander-class Dreadnought, these three super-large warships form the most stable defense line of the Galaxy Republic Core Worlds.

Although the combat effectiveness of these three types of super-large warships is far inferior to that of Hunter Class Battlecruiser, they are large enough after all. After the war began, Galactic Republic continued to modernize and modify these backward large-scale warships, especially the installation of a large number of weapons and equipment that exceeded the limitations of Rusan Treaty. The combat capabilities of these super-large warships have now been much improved than before.

With a large enough body, larger shield capacitors, stronger turrets, more fighters, and faster engines can be installed. Without considering cost-effectiveness, the combat effectiveness of these warships has skyrocketed.

Therefore, at that time, a 2,500-meter-long Prosecutor-class battlecruiser arrived at Terminus Planet thanks to the connections of Wilhuff-Governor Tarkin.

Such a battleship is almost a dimensionality reduction attack. The exhausted Fourth Civilization fleet is simply unable to fight against this behemoth. Matt-Hona's last resort is only Kohl-class Battlecruiser's 40-meter caliber Hypermatter Railgun, and Martha-class heavy cruiser's powerful Fire Cloud series missile.

Finally, now, it's Republic fleet's turn to experience the sense of oppression brought by such a Prosecutor-class battlecruiser!

Although this Prosecutor-class battlecruiser was severely damaged in the previous battle, its firepower is actually not as good as that of the Hunter Class, but it is big enough! With a supply of 4 times more shield capacitors than Hunter Class, Deflector Shield is almost desperate!

You must know that Republic warship does not have the explosive power of Hypermatter Railgun, nor does it have Fire Cloud Missile!

With the help of the Turbolaser cannon, how long will it take to blast one after another?

What is even more desperate is that because it was used as the flagship before, the position of Prosecutor-class battlecruiser is now at the core of Republic fleet!

The offense and defense of both sides reversed almost instantly!

Although almost every ship in Fourth Civilization's fleet was seriously damaged, Republic fleet's formation had been completely disrupted. They didn't know whether they should deal with Prosecutor-class battlecruiser blooming in their center or continue to concentrate their firepower against Fourth Civilization's already broken fleet.

But soon, another option was presented to them...

After gaining an absolute advantage in ground combat, the Fourth Civilization fighter jets previously used for combat inside the atmosphere rushed out of the atmosphere and joined the space battlefield.

And in the orbital defense system in the eastern suburbs of Fermos City, there is now a terrifying scene.

Countless zombies pounced on the remaining defenders. They had no emotions and no knowledge of pain. They only had a desire for the flesh and blood of the living and the need to spread the virus.

During the previous battle, several Licker sneaked in, attacked and infected hundreds of staff who were resting during their shifts, and then a zombie wave broke out.

After learning the news, Major General Fourth Civilization Army Commander Xiao Guanghua made an immediate decision and sent a team of commandos to board an APOD-33 transport aircraft directly into the orbital defense system. They used special pheromones to attract the zombie groups to other directions to continue attacking the defenders, and then took advantage of the chaos to occupy the control center.

The 10-meter-caliber cannon of the orbital defense system adjusted its direction and pointed it at the sky. The computer instantly calculated the flight trajectory of the cannonball in the atmosphere. After considering the effects of the planet's rotation, revolution, and eccentricity, it determined the impact point as Republic fleet and fired decisively!!

And the last straw that hit Republic fleet also came from the ground.

Two hours after Fourth Civilization launched the Orbital Drop operation, the Terminus Planet administrative center was attacked by more than a dozen Fourth Legion soldiers with five Indjori Vengeance. They also used pheromones to induce a large number of zombies and Licker to participate in the siege.

Finally, after 10 minutes of resistance, all officials in the administrative center, including Planet Governor, surrendered.

Fourth Legion soldiers entered it and started a bloody massacre regardless of the other party's pleas. Only Planet Governor was left alone and asked him to issue a surrender notice to the entire planet.

As soon as the surrender notice was issued, many of the bounty Hunter left on the planet immediately defected, and even many local troops laid down their weapons and surrendered.

Some bounty Hunter were frightened to see the Fourth Legion soldiers and Indjori Vengeance falling from the sky like gods of death, and they all expressed their willingness to join the fight against Galactic Republic.

So under the supervision of the Fourth Legion soldiers boarding the ship, hundreds of Hunter bounty spaceships took off and joined the space battlefield.

From the Enlightener logging into Prosecutor-class battlecruiser to Corsev Battlecruiser deploying Orbital Drop, these two steps of a life-and-death strategy only took 5 minutes.

These 5 minutes sealed the victory, allowing Fourth Civilization to come back from the brink of defeat, and then win in less than 3 hours of fighting!

There is luck, sacrifice, hard work, wisdom, and bravery, but more importantly, it is the never-giving-up spirit of Fourth Civilization officers and soldiers.

In this battle, they lived up to their slogan...

I am the Calamity!!

Thanks to my boss Bai Xiruo for the reward of 500 Qidian Coin!!
