Chapter 661 Bespin Meat Grinder
659, Bespin Meat Grinder
The Javelin-class missile frigate is a very classic spaceship of the Emergency Traders Alliance in "Sins of a Solar Empire" , 85 meters long, is equipped with two sets of five-unit large-scale long-range anti-ship missile launchers with 60 rounds of ammunition, and is also equipped with a powerful fire control radar to target and guide missile attacks.
Currently equipped on the Javelin-class missile frigate is the Fourth Civilization’s second-generation anti-matter anti-ship missile ‘Crossgun I’, which is 7.3 meters long and equipped with a shield generator and an anti-matter reactor.
Different from the large missiles used on the Martha-class guided missile heavy cruisers that rely on radiation clouds to cause damage, the Crossgun I-type anti-ship missiles used on the Javelin-class guided missile frigates pursue faster speeds and larger point killing, and more accurate landing point. Once the target is hit, or the navigation AI determines that the target has entered the effective killing range and the missile itself has been seriously damaged, the missile warhead will connect to the anti-matter reserve in the reactor to produce a devastating explosion.
Even in "Sins of a Solar Empire", TEC's warships generally have weak firepower, so the Javelin-class guided missile frigate is also one of TEC's magic weapons against the enemy's powerful warships.
Igor Zavalov has 500 Javelin-class guided missile frigates hidden in those floating cities! One salvo is a total of 5,000 Crossgun I anti-ship missiles! The ammunition reserve on each Javelin-class guided missile frigate can be fired 6 times!
In order to increase the hit rate, Igor Zavalov decided to hide all the Javelin-class guided missile frigates inside the floating city. He also captured Admiral McGrane’s eagerness for success. Waiting until the Republic fleet was close enough to launch the missiles did not give Republic fighters enough time to intercept.
It can be said that in order to pave the way for this missile salvo, Igor Zavalov paid more than 2,000 fighter jets to be shot down, more than 300 frigates to be destroyed, and 1 Cole-class battlecruiser. The cost of being destroyed, one ship severely damaged, and three Masha-class guided missile heavy cruisers losing their combat capabilities!
The arrogant soldier plan can be said to be the right medicine for the self-esteemed generals and generals of the Galactic Republic at all levels.
Densely large anti-ship missiles were launched, and the fighter group of the Galactic Republic saw that something was wrong and immediately tried their best to intercept them. At the same time, Admiral McGrane also showed excellent military skills. His accurate prediction of the battlefield situation allowed his fleet to avoid disaster.
The Jaeger-class battlecruiser has been adjusted to a defensive formation, and the shield level has been increased while reducing the firepower output. All close-in defense laser cannons have been fully opened, and even the battleship's main gun has turned its direction to attack those Incoming missile swarm.
The golden energy clusters produced by the annihilation of antimatter continue to flicker in the universe, as if countless stars suddenly appeared in the universe!
This wave of missile attacks can also be said to be a desperate move for Igor Zavalov, who hopes to hit the Republic's fleet in one fell swoop. However, things went against expectations, and Admiral McGrane was not a mediocre person. His advance preparations minimized the losses of the Republic warships.
A large number of missiles were intercepted, destroyed, or were induced by powerful electronic interference to detonate in advance or shoot in other directions. Less than one tenth of them were able to hit the target in the end!
But even one-tenth of the anti-ship missiles caused extremely serious damage. Nearly two thousand missiles hit about half of the Jaeger-class battlecruisers. In the terrible explosion, the shields of these Jaeger-class battlecruisers flashed violently, and then directly overloaded and shattered!
Two Jaeger-class battlecruisers were directly blown up, 12 suffered heavy damage and had to withdraw from the battle sequence, and more than 20 other ships were damaged to varying degrees, but they still have a certain combat effectiveness.
Admiral McGrane looked gloomy, looking at the battleship damage data scrolling in front of him, suddenly grabbed his hat and slapped it on the table, and said firmly: "Continue to attack! Don't Stop! We will not stop until we destroy Bespin today!”
The defenders of the fourth civilization immediately endured extremely terrible pressure! More than 60 large thousand-meter-level battleships, more than 10 300-meter-level cruisers, and more than 14,000 fighter jets, this is the enemy they are facing!
Every minute, fighter jets are shot down, battleships are destroyed, and countless lives are lost. However, the players standing on both sides of the chessboard just waved their hands with stern faces, pushing more chess pieces and more lives into this meat grinder of death!
For this battle, the planner, Helmut Zemo, the chief minister of the Fourth Civilization Cabinet, has only one purpose: to strike later, if you don't move, you will be killed, if you move, you will kill! "General! Urgent report from Planet Annaji! Urgent report from Planet Karl!" The communications soldier quickly ran to General Maglen, saluted and shouted loudly.
"Planet Annaji? Planet Karl? What's wrong?" Admiral McGlenn's heart tightened, and he suddenly had some bad premonitions.
“In the planet Annaji, the riot caused by the Aru people was brought under control within a day, and the hyperspace channel was restored to navigation! The Dawn Planet fleet evacuated from the planet Carl and returned to the planet Annaji for repairs, and there were They may rush directly to the Bespin planet! "The messenger said, "Furthermore, judging from the communications intercepted by the intelligence department, the designation of this fleet is not Fleet B, but... Fleet A!"
"You! What are you talking about?" Admiral McGlenn was shocked and grabbed the messenger's shoulder, "Not the B fleet? No, this is impossible! The A fleet is not on the Bespin planet. Planet Noe-ha-on? Also! How can they quell the Airu rebellion in one day? "
"More intelligence on the planet Annaji is being compiled. The current situation is unknown! But it is certain that there was no orbital bombing. It was the riot that the Elu government restrained the people to stop. In addition, the commander of the defense fleet of the planet Carl is now asking for instructions whether to let the fleet leave. Defense zone, enter the planet Noah Ha-on," the messenger said, "As for the fleet number, the intelligence department is doing its best to verify it."
"Let the planet Karl not act rashly, there is nothing on the planet Noah-ha-on. Strategic value! Immediately send people to keep an eye on the movements of the Dawn Planet fleet! The Airu people's retreat has expanded the scope of this fleet's operations, and it is indeed possible to support the Bespin Planet!" Admiral McGlenn made an immediate decision, "We continue to attack Bespin!"
......
Model sector, planet Annaji, a few hours ago.
In the magnificent planetary palace, on the throne of Queen Elu, dozens of heads are piled bloody. The faces of each head were full of horror and pain. Obviously, they did not die happily.
With a little recognition, you can identify the owners of these heads...
The Queen of Airu, the Prime Minister, the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Defense, the Fleet Commander... almost the highest-ranking people in the Airu government are all conferred their heads here. !
In front of the throne, hundreds of Airu officials were trembling all over, kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs. Their eyes were blindfolded and could not see, but the experience of being inexplicably kidnapped and the strong smell of blood made them They guessed something terrible.
More than a dozen people wearing dark blue combat uniforms, thin bodies, special full-coverage helmets, tactical eyepieces flashing blue light, holding customized assault rifles are around these people, But in fact, there are more lurking in the invisible corners...
Salarian Special Forces!
