Chapter 2375 The Empire Strikes Back (2)
2376. The Empire Strikes Back (2)
Return to the aid of the Yago-Dur planet, or directly attack the Fangdo planet?
This is a multiple-choice question before Severance Tann. The planet Yago-Dur is now unable to support itself. Facing more than five times the strength of the troops, plus the Enforcer super Star Destroyer that is dealing with injuries like crazy, General Lingliang has done his best, and has also reached the point where he has already done his best. To the limit.
One of the disadvantages of starting the war early is that there is only one Death Star cannon. A Death Star cannon was not enough to threaten the Fondo planet, so Darth Vader launched a powerful attack and rushed out, abandoning the Fondo planet.
Because Darth Vader is in this situation, he can fully count on himself to capture the Yago-Dur planet first before the fall of Fondo planet.
It is true that the Galactic Empire lost the planet Fangduo, but the Kingdom of Dawn lost the planet Yago-Dur, which is directly the result of the door opening!
If nothing else, the Jiwen people must be resentful for losing their hometown, and the Golden Rock planet, the hometown of the Gran people, cannot be defended. As a result, two races with a population of tens of billions began to deviate from each other, and the blow to the Kingdom of Dawn was even more fatal.
So what to do now?
"Tell Ling Liang that she must rely on her own strength to defend the planet Yago-Dur. And I will not give her any assistance." Severance Tann said coldly to the staff officer Said, she didn't even want to explain to General Ling in person, and immediately threw herself into the plan to attack Fangduo planet.
...
On October 8, Darth Vader's fleet had taken control of the outer orbit of the planet Yago-Dur and began orbital bombing of the planet.
The First Task Force led by Ling Liang does not dare to fight rashly due to lack of strength. He can only adopt a long-distance harassment posture and use the particle lance of the disaster-class battlecruiser to continuously fire from a distance to harass the imperial fleet. bombing campaign and possible subsequent landings.
The location where her fleet is currently stationed is in a space dock area about 1 astronomical unit away from the planet. This is where the Titan battleships were built on the Yago-Dur planet.
In the beginning, in order to keep the construction of the Titan battleship secret, the construction site was not built in the planet's synchronous orbit. Instead, it was chosen to be far away from the planet and build an independent space facility in a location with relatively gentle gravity. In addition to the Titan battleship dock, it also includes a large spaceport, supply station, and even a space station that can accommodate 20,000 people!
Now, with the outskirts of the Yago-Dur planet lost, the Titan Shipyard has become Lingliang's last stronghold. She can't leave here, otherwise, the isolated and helpless planet Yago-Dur will be completely captured!
A large number of engineering ships and supply ships are constantly coming from behind to repair the battleships in Lingliang on the spot, especially the Titan battleship Xuanwu, which must regain its combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
At the same time, Severance Tann led the second most powerful task force, which had circled around and threatened the Fangdo planet from another direction. The main reason for being able to carry out strategic maneuvers like this is that the Galactic Empire has lost control of the southern line of the Hydia Channel by occupying the planet Kira.
On October 9, Severance Tann captured the planet Bestine under a fierce attack, and in the early morning of the next day, a large number of fleets entered the Fondo system!
At the same time, Darth Vader discovered something very embarrassing.
He can't capture the planet Yago-Dur! Although more than 200 Imperial-class Star Destroyers have been bombarding the planet for two full days, orbital cannons are still being fired from the planet Yago-Dur to fight back.
Even though the surface of the planet has been blasted with lava everywhere and flames rising into the sky, it seems to have no effect.
After careful scanning, Darth Vader discovered a very serious problem - the orbital defense cannons used by the planet Yago-Dur to fight back were all built underground! These orbital defense cannons are all built under rock formations more than 5,000 meters underground. Each shot has a very narrow range to shoot through such thick rock formations, but the Jiwen defenders don't care. They can hit if they can, or if they can't. Also join in the fun.
Because almost all the buildings and cities on the entire Yago-Dur planet are built underground!
The Yago-Dour galaxy is a three-body galaxy. The existence of three stars makes the gravitational environment of the galaxy unpredictable and extremely dangerous. The planet Yago-Dur has passed by extremely close to the star hundreds of thousands of kilometers away hundreds of times in history!
So now the surface of Yago-Dur's planet is covered with reflective and extremely hard obsidian rock layers. In addition, the Jiwen people have been continuously strengthening this planet for thousands of years. They have added countless supports from the inside out and driven countless extremely hard reinforcement structures into the rock formations. They are several kilometers deep underground. Build your own cities with incredibly strong support structures!
Even at the bottom of their cities, they have built hundreds of huge artificial gravity systems to ensure that the city can still maintain normal operation even if the planet loses its rotation.
It can be said that the entire Yago-Dur planet is a super fortress built over tens of thousands of years! Such a fortress-like structure, in turn, ensures that the planet remains intact despite the extreme astronomical phenomena of the Trisolaran Galaxy.
Just like the last battle on the Yago-Dur planet, the planet was thrown out directly by the gravity of the star, flying around in the galaxy like a pinball. If it were any other planet, it would have disintegrated long ago!
But the planet Yago-Dur is still strong. Just as they are now facing the bombardment of hundreds of Star Destroyers, they stand still!
Darth Vader stood on the bridge of the Executor, staring from a distance at the planet Yago-Dur, which appeared to be blazing with flames but was actually unscathed. His cold mask blocked all his emotions. His expression, only the sound of heavy breathing coming from the respirator, was still so chilling.
I don’t know if he is currently scolding the incompetence of the Galactic Republic. Why did he force a resilient race like the Givenians to the Separatist side, and then gave them an almost unstoppable weapon? The captured super fortress! !
Since the Galactic Republic's multiple attacks on the planet Yago-Dur during the Clone Wars until now, countless battleships and countless soldiers have died here. But now, even though he has defeated the guarding fleet, facing the planet itself, he can still only look back and sigh.
"Continue to maintain the siege of the planet and guard against the separatist fleet. Send the Cheer-class assault landing ship to launch a landing operation on the planet Yago-Dur!" Darth Vader said coldly Said: "No matter how much the price is paid, the planet Yago-Dur must be captured!!"
