847. The Lost Fleet (End)

The engines of Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser one after another came on, expelling a large number of shriveled corpses of Republic Judicial Fleet crew members from the hatches, then opening their shields, turning their guns and firing at Republic fleet led by Octavian-Grant.

The ship Luukri-Hok-class battleship driven by Cun Te arrived at Blade Fleet nearly 40 minutes early, which became the decisive factor in this battle.

Although this Luukri-Hok-class battleship collided with Plague, there were still more than 50,000 Gran Marines who swarmed out to snatch Blade Fleet's Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser. In the next hour, more than 15,000 Marines recovered from minor injuries from the collision and joined the battle.

In total, they robbed more than 150 Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser.

Later, when the main fleets of both sides arrived at the battlefield, most of these warships were still warming up their engines, but there were still 7 or 8 warships engaged in the battle. As time goes by, more and more Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser will join the battle, which is a snowballing advantage.

The fleets led by General Trench and Octavian-Grant were in a melee on Blade Fleet's side. Both sides refused to retreat and sent a large number of Marines to land on Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser to seize the ship without any care.

At the same time, inside Plague, the ending was also ushered in.

The bruised Jedi Master Isi-Kos was leaning against the corner. Only in this way could he remain standing. His hands holding Lightsaber were also shaking. Several gunshot wounds on his arms made it almost impossible for him to swing Lightsaber.

More than a dozen B-2 super battle robots raised their right arms and exposed blaster machine guns and pointed at the desperate Jedi Master. There were more Gran soldiers standing far away. They did not dare to get too close because the trapped Jedi Master had killed at least a hundred of them before.

But at this moment, they who could have easily shot Isi-Kos into a sieve did not fire, but separated to make a way out on both sides.

Darth-Malthael, wearing a black cloak, strode up, came to him, and said coldly, "Master Yisi-Kos, surrender. Galactic Republic, has ushered in another failure. Soon, failure will become a habit for you."

Isi-Kos raised his dull eyes and looked at Darth-Malthael. Without saying a word, he just used all his strength to raise Lightsaber, making a crooked sword posture.

"Ha..." Darth-Malthael smiled coldly, raised his hand, and Isi-Kos' Lightsaber flew out of his hand and landed in his hand, "Catch him."

Seeing that he was without Lightsaber, the Gran soldiers who had been cowering just now became fierce. They rushed forward, pushed Isi-Kos to the ground, and handcuffed him.

Das-Malthael kept sneering from the side, "Capturing one of the Jedi Order Twelve-member High Council members alive is definitely big news, right?"

He knelt down and gently slapped Isi-Kos on the face with the back of his hand. However, Isi-Kos had almost fainted and had no reaction at all.

Das-Malthael stood up and ordered, "Tell Trench to speed up! I don't want to see the little mouse of Galactic Republic continue to covet my Blade Fleet!"

"Your Majesty the Governor, Separatists has occupied more than three-quarters of the Blade Fleet battleships. Now these battleships are just warming up their engines for the time being, but if this continues, we may suffer extremely severe consequences. Heavy loss..." On the Republic fleet flagship, Hunter Class Battlecruiser Elder, the adjutant came over and said to Octavian-Grant.

"How many battleships have we actually confirmed that we can capture?" Octavian-Grant asked.

"Currently we have boarded 37 warships, and most of them are still fiercely contested. But I must say that the situation is not optimistic. Separatists has brought a lot of people." The adjutant said.

Octavian-Grant nodded solemnly, "Separatists has three Luukri-Hok-class battleships, and their transport capacity far exceeds ours... the damn the Givin!"

He punched the console hard.

If it weren't for the Givin pretending to be crazy on Galactic Senate and setting up Interdictor in their galaxy, he wouldn't have rushed over with only Hunter Class Battlecruiser's formation. He had to bring some Acclamator-class assault ship anyway!

He took several deep breaths and then said, "Notify all Marines that we still have 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, we will break away from the battle and leave here immediately!"

The adjutant nodded, stood at attention and saluted, "Yes!"

The battle in the last 20 minutes was brutal. Because Galactic Republic only brought Hunter Class Battlecruiser, their Marines had less than 20,000 people in total. Compared to Fourth Civilization, which brought three Luukri-Hok-class battleship, a total of 300,000 troops, which was completely insufficient.

Even if Galactic Republic and Marines are very elite Clone Trooper, in such an environment, there is still a huge numerical disadvantage of 1:10 and there is no way to use it.

In fact, Tang Xiao ordered Gran to dispatch the 300,000 troops instead of stuffing 600,000 robots into Luukri-Hok-class battleship, because in this complex environment of boarding operations, intelligent biological soldiers are much more flexible in handling and adapting.

Before the main fleets of both sides arrived, the remaining fleets of Sefrans-Tann snatched 6 Dreadnought-classs, and Shen Jon's people landed on the other 2 Dreadnought-classs.

After that, the Marines in the Luukri-Hok-class battleship that Cun Te brought in advance landed on 170 of the remaining 192 Dreadnought-classs. Even if it was too late to completely control the warship, at least it was possible to lock the hangar door after entering the warship.

Afterwards, the main fleets of both sides arrived, and a large number of landing forces began to fight for it. All warships were boarded, and 37 of them, Galactic Republic and Marines, forcibly broke in.

The battleships that were forcibly broken into were basically because Galactic Republic had mastered the key to the battleship. Therefore, if Marines of Fourth Civilization did not have time to completely take over the battleship system, Galactic Republic could directly control the battleship to open the hatch and welcome the landing troops to enter.

So in the final stage of the battle, Galactic Republic was actually only competing on 39 of the Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers.

After listening to the analysis of the Fleet Staff Department, General Trench made the decision to open fire on all Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser that had no hope of recapture.

At the same time, Galaxy Governor of the 20th Republic Army Octavian-Grant also issued an order for the entire army to retreat.

They were able to take away only 15 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers, and the remaining 178 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers were controlled by Fourth Civilizations. During the battle, 7 Dreadnought-classs were destroyed.

The battle for Blade Fleet came to an end in such chaos.

After Galactic Republic fleet retreated, Tang Xiao ordered all fleets to repair on the spot, establish a hyperspace navigation beacon here, guide the engineering fleet to enter, and perform maintenance and repairs on all Blade Fleet warships that were grabbed.

And the most important thing is to let Plague Titan warship, which has been completely paralyzed and cannot even sail normally, move again - this terrifying steel monster that once became a nightmare for people throughout the galaxy is already dying.
