Chapter 526: Bloody Battle on Bespin (2)

524. Bloody Battle on Bespin (2)

In the cosmic space around the planet Bespin, hundreds of battleships are firing on all cylinders, and countless Missiles and lasers kept flashing, bursting into bursts of red fire against the background of the orange planet, and even the light blue light of space collapse caused by the explosion of proton torpedoes.

Densely packed vulture robot fighters flew like flies at high speed around the Republic fleet, while constantly firing lasers and proton torpedoes. The Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets of the Republic Fleet relied on this DP-20 gunboat for defense. Under the firepower of the DP-20 gunboat specially developed for small fighters, the Vulture robot fighters were destroyed in pieces and became garbage floating in space.

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

"They want to forcefully land in Cloud City and stop them!" Fleet Commander Santamaria immediately ordered, "The CR-90 frigate formation fired salvos at the opponent's outflanking warships! Notify the fighter jets to break away from the formation and intercept the opponent's warships!"< br>
"A concentrated energy reaction has been detected within the Separatist fleet!" a soldier shouted loudly.

"Asshole! Do they still have a secret weapon?" Santamaria called up the information about the Cole-class battlecruiser in the database, but with Mabel who was in the Battle of Geonosis two days ago- Like Garson, all he saw was one unknown area after another.

A moment later, a dazzling light emitted from behind the Dawn Planet fleet, and almost at the same time, bursts of violent explosions erupted from the largest Corellian defense cruisers in the Republic fleet!

"Report! We encountered fire from the enemy's extremely powerful kinetic energy weapons!"

"The Langen's shields are overloaded!"

"The Dead Lake lost contact and the bridge was visually 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 shots. And If we focus on kinetic energy protection, the opponent's high-power laser will also cause us great losses," a technician said back.

Another staff officer said from the side: "The one that is detouring to the flank is the Hiigara-class battlecruiser. According to the records in the database, the two main guns of the Hiigara-class battlecruiser are more powerful than what we have now. Every type of warship is powerful, so we can’t take the risk of exposing our fleet to the attack of the Hiigara-class main gun!”

"Retreat immediately! Disperse the formation, let's go back and rely on Cloud City to defend!" Santamaria made a prompt decision and issued the order to retreat.

Lord Santamaria, a Corellian noble, initially served in the Corellian Defense Fleet, and later went to the planet Bespin to serve as a military commander due to family business. After the Confederation of Independent Systems announced its establishment and declared war on the Galactic Republic, and then the Speaker of the Republic, Sheev Palpatine, announced the formal establishment of the Grand Republic Army, he discussed with Miela Figo, the current leader of Cloud City, and decided to start the war Remain neutral among them.

In order to express their determination to be neutral, they drove away the envoys of the Republic, and also directly rejected the solicitation of the Confederation of Independent Systems through communications, expressing the same meaning to both parties - remaining neutral, welcome to do business, and other things No discussion. But less than five hours after they issued the declaration of neutrality, information came immediately that a large fleet of the Dawn Planet had left the Annaji planet, and based on the hyperspace route response, their destination was Bespin!

Seeing that the Separatist fleet trampled on their declaration of neutrality without hesitation for a minute, Miela Figo issued a serious warning to the Dawn Planet and at the same time The Galactic Republic calls for help. And she also asked Santamaria to command Bespin's defense forces in order to delay the arrival of reinforcements from the Republic.

Then, an hour later, the planet Bespin issued a public declaration stating that it was resolute to safeguard the unity of the Republic and to fight against separatism.

In front of the huge fleet of Dawn Planet, Bespin couldn't care less that they had just kicked out the Republic's envoy a few hours ago and declared that they would not help each other to maintain neutrality.

The Republic Strategic Command also responded quickly. It immediately established a unified command channel with the Bespin Defense Force, and immediately began to mobilize reinforcements for support. At the same time, it separated the weapons detected by their hyperspace detection station. The course and position of the communist fleet were shared.

Knowing that the enemy was outnumbered, Santamaria immediately formulated a battle plan. He gathered 150 warships with the best condition and the most powerful firepower among the Bespin defense forces, and knew in advance that the opponent's hyperspace jump Under the circumstances of the coordinates, a single salvo directly damaged 6 Cole-class battlecruisers when the opponent did not open the shield.

However, he still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Cole-class battlecruisers and Higra-class battlecruisers. Even if they suffered a blow, the Fourth Civilization Fleet A was still under the impeccable command of Matt Horner. Stand firm and launch a counterattack at the cost of 500 Vulture robot fighters.

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

The Republic fleet retreated faster and faster, and finally lost its formation completely and became a mess.

At this time, 10 Suowa-class aircraft carriers have arrived at Yuncheng, and 80 unmanned missile platforms have been deployed outside Yuncheng to completely blockade Yuncheng.

On the way back, Santamaria's fleet ran into the defense line constructed by the unmanned missile platform. The formation was scattered again. They had to leave Cloud City and ran towards the direction of several other floating cities. all.

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

The more than 1 million residents in Cloud City watched in utter horror as the huge shadow in the sky blocked the light of the stars bit by bit, and the huge hull with a diameter of more than 3,000 meters blocked the sky and the sun!

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

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