Chapter 658 Agonev
656, Agonev
22 BBY, the morning of August 11, Bespin planet.
A group of 20 V-19 Riptide fighters escorting 5 Y-wing bombers are flying at full speed, heading towards the Bespin planet.
This huge gas giant has a diameter of 118,000 kilometers, but in fact, the turbid atmosphere spilling out around it is wider. If this part is included, the diameter of the Bespin planet can even reach 130,000 kilometers! In comparison, the Earth with a diameter of 12,000 kilometers is like a marble placed next to a basketball.
Now, in this turbid atmosphere, a terrible battle is breaking out.
Countless lasers and missiles were passing by like raindrops, some from the enemy and some from our own side. This team of fighter jets is like swifts flying up and down in the storm, thrilling!
In fact, if you don't look at the instruments, you can't actually see anything around you, because the area where the two sides are fighting is so large that it is completely impossible to see it by sight.
But even so, the dense laser beams and constant explosions still showed the cruelty of this battle.
This fighter squadron passed by a Gauss artillery platform at high speed. The two 500mm caliber heavy guns on this 50-meter-high small armed fire platform were firing continuously into the void. Two 8-mounted missiles The launcher also fired 16 missiles at once, directly in the direction of the Republic fleet in the rear.
But these Republic fighters didn't pay attention at all. Their goals were elsewhere.
The two close-range laser cannons on the Gauss fire platform fired wildly at the fighter jets. The lasers were all blocked by the fighter shields. Then, from an unknown direction, a powerful turbo laser cannon hit directly. Gaussian firepower platform! Then came the second and third rounds. After withstanding nearly 10 rounds of turbolaser cannon fire, the shield of the Gauss Firepower Platform finally collapsed, and then the main structure and armor also collapsed during the shooting!
Amidst the violent explosion, the fighter squadron flashed past, passing through layers of turbid clouds and fog. Suddenly the front suddenly became clear, and the surrounding scenery suddenly became clear.
I only saw the huge disk-shaped body of Besping Cloud City floating in the distance. More than 20 warships and countless fighter jets and frigates were fighting fiercely in this airspace. Countless lasers and missiles Flying across the sky.
However, this is not the point. After this group of fighter jets passed through the clouds, directly in front of them was another terrifying creation!
An extremely huge armed space station!
No, this can no longer be described as a space station. This giant space station, which has a square trapezoidal top and a slightly thinner bottom, looks like a mushroom. Its side length reaches a terrifying 8,000 meters! The height also reaches as much as 6,000 meters!
Such a size is clearly a fortress! Star Fortress!
Thick armor is spread all over the whole, dense close-range anti-aircraft guns are everywhere, and vertical missile launchers arranged on the edges are constantly launching various types of missiles. What's even more terrifying is that an extremely huge twin-mounted heavy laser cannon is installed on the four corners of the edge of the fortress! The laser cannon launcher alone is larger than a frigate!
As the interstellar fortress slowly rotates, the heavy laser cannons on the four corners are also firing rhythmically. Each irradiation lasts for about 2 seconds, which will bring devastating damage to the battleship.
It can be seen that this interstellar fortress has not yet been completed, and the frame structure in many places is still exposed and is being assembled by some large engineering ships with a length of more than 900 meters. There were already thousands of fighter jets engaged in fierce fighting around the fortress. Naturally, the Republic understood the threat posed by the fortress and dispatched a large number of fighter jets for bombing.
After discovering this newly joined fighter squadron, the Star Fortress deployed a part of its close-range firepower to fire wildly. The dense lasers and artillery shells were fired over, immediately killing all the fighters in the squadron. Several fighter planes destroyed.
But these brave Galactic Republic fighter pilots still moved forward fearlessly. As soon as they discovered the target, they launched all the missiles and proton torpedoes carried on the fighter jets. Facing this long side A super giant fortress with a height of 8,000 meters and a height of 6,000 meters. You don’t even need to aim!
Under the cover of the V-19 fighter jets, the Y-wing bombers finally rushed close to the fortress despite the firepower. The anti-aircraft firepower was so dense that it was impossible to see directly. The human eye alone could no longer detect hundreds of them. To find a space to dodge amid the thousands of oncoming fires, they relied only on the assistance of the navigation computer and their own irregular evasive movements.
However, even so, the Y-wing bombers could not get too close to this interstellar fortress, because the surrounding firepower was really crazy. After the three Y-wing bombers were destroyed, they had to launch all the heavy proton torpedoes and then turn around. Just run.
The firepower at close range became more and more crazy. More than a dozen heavy-duty proton torpedoes were intercepted, but more than 20 of them still hit the target, causing ripples to ripple on the energy shield of the interstellar fortress.
At this moment, the escorting V-19 fighter jets were already fighting with a group of ghost fighters that came to protect them. The V-19 torrent fighters fell into a complete disadvantage when facing the stealth fighters, and were shot down one after another. The Y-wing bombers had to make a wide circle to prepare to leave in the other direction.
However, at this moment, a Martha-class heavy cruiser flew around the interstellar fortress at an extremely fast speed. Facing a group of Republic fighter jets that rushed over, all missile launchers were deployed, and hundreds of missiles were launched. Missiles are launched like raindrops! !
This unique missile will form a large deadly radiation cloud after it explodes. This salvo directly covers an area of hundreds of kilometers! Among them, at least 100 Republic fighters were disintegrated into pieces by the radiation cloud.
Among them, this group of Y-wing bombers was also included.
......
At the same time, Bespin Cloud City, the command center of the fourth civilization.
Commander-in-chief Igor Zavalov is commanding calmly, issuing orders one after another. Each battleship and fighter squadron is performing its duties, doing its best to resist as many as 80 Jaeger-class ships of the Galactic Republic. A crazy attack by battlecruisers and tens of thousands of fighters.
Beside him, a Vathian was reporting the situation with a portable terminal, "General, the Agonev-class interstellar fortress has not yet been completely completed, and after all, it was transformed from the industrial floating city Shefa City. , so the structural strength cannot be guaranteed, and the shield of the interstellar fortress should be avoided as much as possible.”
The Vathians are an insectoid race with four legs and a thick carapace covering their bodies. They are extremely strong, hardworking, and very talented in engineering. This should be in line with their distant ancestors, the Kiliks. After all, the Kiliks are also a race that is keen on all kinds of giant structures.
But this time, the Vathians were able to transform Shefa City into an Agniev-level interstellar fortress in just two months, and the Vathians took the greatest credit. In addition, the Jiwen people also prepared the precision components of the interstellar fortress's weapon system early, and then secretly sent them for direct assembly. This allowed the interstellar base to play a role in this defensive battle.
