Chapter 585: The portal opens

583. The portal opens

At this moment, the outer orbit of the Sarabin galaxy, satellite No. 426.

The fleet of the Confederation of Independent Systems has suppressed the Republic's defense fleet with its powerful firepower. Because the large battleships have basically been transferred to other places, most of the defense fleets in these places are small boats.

This is mainly because the hyperspace engines of large battleships have a higher level, which means that they can reach their destination faster with fewer jumps.

But now, these small warships left behind are no match for the Independent System Confederacy fleet, not to mention, the person commanding this fleet is Severance Tann!

Under the command of Tann, the fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems seemed to have every battleship come alive. Through their flexible movements and constantly changing group formations, they made the Republic battleships miss one another, always inadvertently. Let the Republic's formation split itself apart during the artillery battle.

Then she immediately deployed the Apocalypse-class light cruisers and Revenge-class light destroyers, which were the fastest at sublight speed, to launch an assault, directly wedged into the formation of the Republic fleet, preventing them from looking at each other.

Then, 50 Diamond-class transport cruisers immediately rushed to Satellite 426 to launch a landing operation.

Deflection shields, especially deflection shields at the battleship level or even the planet level, actually still have many inconvenient drawbacks. Depending on the different shield generators, the manifestations of these shields will be different. In addition to being divided by functionality, such as thermal energy shields, particle shields, etc., there are also many types of divisions by generation methods, including one-way shields, two-way shields, and the like.

In order to extend the shield to cover the target, the shield generator itself is not actually protected by the shield. For fighter jets, the shield generator itself is not powerful enough and cannot cover the entire fighter jet at any time, so this does not matter.

For battleships, many shield generators are built in places that are not easy to be hit in battle.

But for planetary shields, this won't work. Because the planetary shield must be shrouded outside the atmosphere, at least 100 kilometers above the ground. Under such circumstances, a huge funnel-shaped defense hole will be formed above the shield generator built on the ground. , which can be easily exploited by the attacker (if you are interested, you can look at the generation process of the Gungan shield generator in "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace").

Not to mention projecting the shield energy from the ground to an ultra-high altitude 100 kilometers away, atmospheric interference and additional energy consumption must also be considered.

Therefore, planetary shields are often launched from large space stations or from the natural moon. The advantage of this is that it can generate a comprehensive shield on the planet, and it can ensure that the shield projection will never be interfered by the planet's atmosphere.

But the disadvantage is that you have to invest heavily in defending this shield generator.

And this is the purpose of Severance Tann’s battle now!

50 Diamond-class transport cruisers began to land directly against the intensive anti-aircraft firepower on Satellite 426, and an army of 100,000 robots rushed towards the Republic's defense line like a tide!

The Republic's garrison resisted desperately, but they could not withstand Severance Tann's flexible tactics, and their positions fell one by one.

Immediately afterwards, when the outcome of the fleet battle in outer space was determined and the fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems began to provide aerial fire support for the ground battle, the Republic's defenders finally fell into a total collapse.

Twelve hours after the attack began, Satellite 426 fell! With a loud noise, the huge planetary shield generator on satellite 426 was blown up. Sarabin, the most important energy supply planet in the core circle of the Milky Way, finally lost the protection of the planetary shield, as if it had been faded away. Like a beautiful girl with the last layer of gauze...

When the ground troops began to be reloaded into the Diamond-class transport cruiser, Severance Tann had returned to the role of this Aboard the Shenyi-class destroyer, the flagship of the battle.

"What a wonderful battle! General Tann." A human officer in his 40s, wearing a beige military uniform, came up to congratulate him.

Although the military system of the Confederacy of Independent Systems is still relatively chaotic, this beige military uniform shows that this man was promoted to an officer from a civilian official. His thin hair was parted in the middle and he had a light beard.

Severance Tann looked at this man with some disdain and said lightly: "The fleet set off immediately to cover the small number of Diamond-class transport cruisers that had been loaded to attack the space station outside the Sarabin planet first."
< br>The Confederate officer maintained the greatest respect for Severance Tann, but he still asked out of his own duties, "General Tann, what is the purpose of attacking this supply depot? We are not Should we wait for the fleet and ground forces to rest before launching a general attack on Sarabin?"

"Zian Finnis, I'm embarrassed to call you that general, you poor one. Can’t strategic thinking understand my current actions?” Severance Tann mocked, “We are now in the core circle of the Republic, and the Republic’s reinforcements will arrive in 10 hours at most, don’t you? Will you prepare for this? "

"10 hours, how do you know? We should not have such information..." Qian Fenis was obviously very good-tempered, and he did not hide his surprise. and ignorance.

Severance Tann glanced at him, but still said: "Within 5 hours of my launch of the offensive, the Republic's reinforcements did not arrive, which shows that they have no intention of evacuating our independent system Confederacy's location. The core circle joins the surrounding fleets around the planet. In this case, they must mobilize the fleet from the front line, and the front line closest to the Sarabin system is the Mingban planet. The time to mobilize the troops from the Mingban planet is 18 to 24 hours. between ”

While watching Zian Fenis sweating profusely as he hurriedly consulted the star map, Severance Tann sarcastically said: "I can't even put the basic deployment and hyperspace channel information on the star map into my head. Rather than commanding an army, it would be better for you to find a job in an electronics factory on the processing industry planet. By the way, I will tell you that the reason why I want to attack Sarabin's supply depot is because of the latest collection from Sarabin. The energy reserve is in the supply station, waiting for transportation, but unfortunately, it was blocked by my fleet."

With Severance Tann's order, the diamonds of the Confederation of Independent Systems were released. -class transport cruiser rushed directly to one of the supply space stations on the planet Sarabin. Here, the Republic no longer had the defense of the fleet, and the Diamond class easily launched a landing.

Then, a large number of robots began to carry the high-energy energy storage devices stored in the supply station, which were enough to last the Dawn Planet for two full years, back to their own spacecraft. And they are trying to occupy more supply space stations. If these space stations are looted, then Dawn Planet will not need to generate electricity for at least the next 30 years!

As expected, the plundering behavior of the robot army caused the defense commander of the Sarabin planet to misjudge. He believed that these separatist fleets were here to rob, so he separated his own defense forces and attacked several other planets. The supply station sent reinforcements.
