Chapter 673: Traces of Poison Fangs
672. Traces of Poison Fangs
Master Ares-Nune looked at the huge battleship on the screen with a gloomy expression, "It looks right, This is the separatist warship that has been attacking our fleet in the Hydia hyperspace channel recently! Get ready to fight!"
The clone commander standing next to him immediately gave the order, "The ships launch combat teams. Form, the fighter squadron will take off immediately!”
Ares-Nune looked at the hangar platform spread out in front of the battleship and the densely packed fighter jets taking off, his face still full of worry.
The first wave of five Jaeger-class battlecruisers took off about 800 fighters, and it was obvious that the flying postures of those fighters were unfamiliar.
After suffering heavy losses on the three battlefields of Fallin, Bespin and Christophsis, it is incredible that such a large Galactic Republic could not find enough fighter pilots in a short period of time. Not to mention it's a tragedy.
Even the V-19 light fighter, which is simple to operate, will require 2 months of training if it is a clone soldier who has received input on the knowledge of piloting the fighter aircraft in advance. If it is an ordinary soldier, then This training cycle will increase to 4 months to half a year.
And now, only 3 months after the outbreak of the civil war, the Republic has lost more than 50,000 pilots on all fronts! !
Battleship operators do not require long training due to functional subdivision and intelligent automation of the system. The number of more complex positions such as navigators, helmsmen, and engine engineers is not large. It is enough to have a dozen men on a battleship, and the losses of these men so far have not exceeded 3,000.
But fighter pilots are different. A qualified fighter pilot must independently control a complex fighter. It requires extremely fast reaction capabilities and spatial recognition capabilities. It also requires combat formation training and combat tactics training. Such Almost everyone is an elite.
With the Republic having abandoned its military due to Rusan's reforms, there are not many fighter pilots in reserve, and now they are basically all lost! Most of the pilots being supplemented now are recruits or recruited from civilian pilots, and their quality varies, but there is no other way.
Looking at the dense formation of fighter jets taking off, Ares-Nune whispered: "This won't work, I still feel the threat of death... Such methods are not enough to threaten that battleship!"
"General! What should we do?" Clone Commander Kate turned around and asked.
"What we need to do is to spread the news. I don't think we have the ability to defeat that super battleship." Ares-Nune said in a deep voice, "Open all the battlefield recorders immediately , after recording any valid information, seal it immediately! ”
"Yes!"
Ares Noone also got up and went to the hangar platform, sat down on his Delta-7 fighter jet, started the engine and flew out.
However, as soon as his fighter jet took off, an exclamation came from the communication, "A powerful energy concentration has been detected! The enemy ship may be about to open fire!"
"Everyone Disperse the ship!!" Ares-Nune exclaimed. Before he finished speaking, an invisible electromagnetic pulse completely enveloped the area tens of thousands of kilometers around, followed by darkness.
His fighter jet immediately lost control, all systems were offline, and it was just floating in the universe relying on inertia.
"Hey! Kate! Anthem! Answer!!" Ares-Nune yelled at the communicator, but there was no sound.
On the other side of the battlefield, General Grievous, standing on the bridge of the Fang, laughed loudly, "Stupid scum of the Republic, this is the end of you! Hahahahaha!! The battleship is advancing at full speed, Blow the Republic's battleship to pieces! Slowly... Hahahahaha!"
The Venomous Fang moved forward immediately, and hundreds of turbolaser cannons on the battleship fired continuously, losing the protection of the shield. , the powerful turbo laser beam exploded countless flames on the armor of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser.
Under this continuous attack, the Jaeger-class battlecruisers gradually disintegrated and were blown into pieces bit by bit.
Among those warships, tens of thousands of officers and soldiers could only watch all of this happening in a state of weightlessness and lack of oxygen! "The enemy ship's weapon has been determined... it is electromagnetic pulse..." Ares-Nune spoke to a memory with difficulty.
The inside of a fighter jet is no better than a battleship. After the life support system is destroyed, the air stored inside the fighter jet will be quickly consumed.
Ares Nune looked at the memory. He had a flash of inspiration at that moment and used the force to protect it. But even so, the memory was still damaged, and he didn’t know. How many of the previously recorded things are still preserved?
"This is...the only hope...to pass on the news of the Separatist super battleship..." Ares-Nune finished speaking, took a deep breath, and then entered a deep state of meditation. .
……
One day later, a formation of six Jaeger-class battlecruisers arrived in the Pui system.
Standing in the center of the bridge of the formation's flagship is Master PloKoon, a member of the Twelve-member Supreme Council of the Jedi Order, and one of the top strong men in the Jedi Order.
What was reflected in his masked eyes at this moment was a terrifying scene...
Countless battleship fragments were floating in the universe, and these fragments were very fine. , completely different from the battleships that are destroyed under normal circumstances, as if they were crushed finely!
In this debris field that stretches for thousands of kilometers, not even a complete body can be found!
"Mysterious super weapon, once again..." Master Pro-Kong said to himself, "Immediately send out a search and rescue team to recover the bodies of the soldiers as much as possible, and at the same time, look for anything that may have clues!"
"Yes!"
Pullo-Kong thought for a while, and then he also came to the hangar platform, boarded a search and rescue boat, and drove the boat with several soldiers. It was less than 5 meters long, but there was a hole at the front end. Small aircraft with robotic arms participate in search and rescue operations.
Suddenly, he felt something and looked in one direction, "Go over there." Pro-Kong pointed ahead and said.
The pilot drove the search and rescue boat over. Plo-Kon sensed someone calling in the Force. He asked the pilot to make room for him. He personally drove the search and rescue boat and controlled the two robotic arms there. Searching through an ocean of debris.
Finally, he discovered a mutilated Delta-7 fighter jet.
Seeing this fighter, Pro-Kong sighed, opened the hatch and jumped out. He is extremely powerful with the Force, and his mask allows him to survive in a vacuum.
He jumped onto the fighter jet, and sure enough he saw the body of Ares Noone, sitting peacefully in the cockpit, restrained by the seat belt and not floating out.
This fighter jet was obviously bombarded by a turbolaser cannon. The powerful force blew up more than half of the fighter fuselage, but Ares-Nune's body was miraculously preserved.
"May the Force be with you, my friend..." Plo-Kon whispered.
At this time, he suddenly sensed something, reached out and took out a memory device from Ares-Nune's arms.
