The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

524 , Bloody Battle Bespin (2)

In the cosmic space around the planet Bespin, hundreds of warships are fully fired, countless missiles and lasers are constantly flashing, and against the background of the orange planet, clusters of red flames are constantly exploding, and there are even The pale blue space-collapsing glow of a proton torpedo explosion.

A dense swarm of vulture droid warplanes flies around the Republic fleet like flies, firing lasers and proton torpedoes at the same time. The Republic Fleet's Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets relied on the DP-20 gunboat for defense. Under the firepower of the DP-20 gunboat specially developed for small fighter jets, the vulture robot fighter jets were destroyed in pieces and became garbage floating in space.

"The opponent's 20 warships are turning to the flank!" The radar soldier reported loudly.

"They want to forcibly land on Yuncheng, stop them!" Fleet Commander Santamaria immediately ordered, "The CR-90 frigate formation salvos the opponent's roundabout warships! Inform the fighters, leave the formation, and intercept the opponent's warships!"

"A concentrated energy response in the Separatist fleet has been detected!" a soldier shouted loudly.

"Bastard! Do they still have secret weapons?" Santamaria called up the information on the Cole-class battlecruiser in the database, but just like Mabel Garson in the Battle of Geonosis two days ago, he saw There is only one piece after another of the unknown.

A moment later, the rear of the Dawn Star Fleet emitted a burst of dazzling light, and almost at the same time, the largest Corellian defense cruisers in the Republic Fleet emitted bursts of violent explosion flames!

"Report! We have encountered the enemy's super-powerful kinetic energy weapons!"

"Lang's shield is overloaded!"

"Dead Lake lost contact, visually the bridge was destroyed!"

With a bang, Santamaria punched the console, "They actually secretly developed such a powerful kinetic energy weapon!"

"General, unless our deflector shield concentrates all its energy on kinetic energy protection, it will be impossible to block the opponent's shooting. And if it concentrates on kinetic energy protection, the opponent's high-power laser will also cause us great losses .” A technician turned around and said.

Another staff officer said on the side: "The one who is turning to the flank is the Higra-class battlecruiser. According to the records in the database, the two main guns of the Higra-class battlecruiser are more powerful than any of our existing warships." They are all strong, we cannot take this risk and put our fleet under the attack of the Higra-class main guns!"

"Retreat immediately! The formation spread out, let's go back and rely on Yuncheng to defend!" Santamaria made a decisive decision and gave the order to retreat.

Lord Santamaria, a Corellian aristocrat, initially served in the Corellian Defense Fleet, and later served as a military commander on the planet Bespin because of the family business. After the Confederation of Independent Systems announced its establishment and declared war on the Galactic Republic, and immediately after the Speaker of the Republic, Schiff Palpatine, announced the formal establishment of the Grand Republic Army, he discussed with the current leader of Cloud City, Miera Figo, and decided to fight against the Galactic Republic. remain neutral.

In order to express their determination to be neutral, they expelled the special envoy of the Republic, and also directly rejected the solicitation of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies through communication, expressing the same meaning to both sides—maintain neutrality, welcome business, and avoid talking about other things.

However, less than 5 hours after they issued the declaration of neutrality, there was information that a large fleet of the Dawn star had left the planet Anji, and judging from the reaction of the hyperspace route, their destination was Bespin!

Seeing that the separatist fleet trampled on their declaration of neutrality without hesitation for almost a minute, Mieira Figo issued a serious warning to the Dawn star and at the same time asked for help from the Galactic Republic. And she also put Santamaria in command of Bespin's defense force, buying time until the Republic's reinforcements arrived.

Then, an hour later, Planet Bespin issued a public declaration, stating that it is imperative to resolutely safeguard the unity of the Republic and combat separatism.

In front of the huge fleet of Star Dawn, Bespin couldn't care less about the fact that they just kicked out the special envoy of the Republic a few hours ago, declaring that they would not help each other to maintain neutrality.

The response of the Strategic Command of the Republic was also very fast. It immediately established a unified command channel with the Bespin defense force, and immediately began to mobilize reinforcements for support. share over.

Knowing that we are outnumbered, Santamaria immediately formulated a battle plan. He gathered 150 warships in the best condition and with the strongest firepower among the Bespin defense forces. When the opponent did not open the shield, a salvo directly severely damaged 6 Cole-class battlecruisers.

However, he still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Cole-class battlecruisers and the Higra-class battlecruisers. Even if they suffered a blow, the Fourth Civilization A Fleet was still under Matt Horner's impeccable command, by sacrificing 500 vulture robots At the price of fighter jets, stand firm and launch a counterattack.

But when Santamaria commanded the fleet to retreat, the 10 Higra-class battlecruisers that were turning to the flanks launched a fierce bombardment at them. At the same time, the opposing Cole-class battlecruisers also began to speed up. Moving forward, the four large laser cannons at the bow continuously fired X-rays to irradiate the warships of the Republic Fleet.

The Republic fleet retreated faster and faster, eventually losing formation entirely and becoming a mess.

At this time, 10 Sowa-class aircraft carriers had already flown to Yuncheng, and deployed 80 unmanned missile platforms around Yuncheng, completely blocking Yuncheng.

Santamaria's fleet crashed into the defense line built by the unmanned missile platform on the way back, and the formation was broken up again. They had to leave Cloud City and run to the direction of several other floating cities to regroup.

After dispersing Bespin's fleet, the huge figures of six Rookie Hook-class battleships slowly approached Cloud City.

The more than 1 million residents of Yuncheng watched in horror as the huge shadow in the sky was gradually covering the light of the stars, and the huge ship with a diameter of more than 3000 meters covered the sky and the sun!

The Sowa-class aircraft carrier launched more than 400 ghost fighters. These fighters used pulse laser cannons and air-to-ground missiles to violently bomb the periphery of Yuncheng against the air defense firepower on the periphery of Yuncheng!

After destroying the anti-aircraft firepower in a corner of Cloud City, dozens of C-9979 transport planes and 200 APOD-33 transport planes took off from the Rookie Hook-class battleship, fully loaded with B-1 combat robots and the Fourth Civilization Army, in the Landing brazenly in Cloud City!
