Chapter 788 Orbital Airborne (Part 2)
787, Orbital Airborne (Part 2)
The Lickers hidden in the darkness have become the biggest trouble for the Republic’s army. These silent hunts The attacker can appear from almost anywhere and then suddenly jump out and attack.
Although the Licker's claws cannot penetrate the battle armor of Republic clone troopers, they can knock the soldier to the ground and then attack the weak areas at the seams of the armor.
Moreover, there are not only clone soldiers currently stationed in Fermos City, but also a large number of local garrison troops from the planet Terminus!
If the clone soldiers could form a small team to resist on the spot when faced with orbital airborne landings and lickers in the dark, these local garrison troops were completely a side effect.
They were panicked when facing the orbital airborne landing and had no idea what to do. It is common to see a group of hundreds of soldiers not even resisting after a raiding spaceship crashes down, but just shouting and scattering.
At this moment, less than an hour after the start of the orbital airborne operation, the army of the fourth civilization has controlled more than one-third of the city, and the control area is still increasing rapidly.
The Republic army can't even find a retreat route!
This is the power of orbital airborne!
If the 6,000 Fourth Army elites and more than 2,000 Inchori Avenger 101s who were put into the battlefield were placed on the frontal battlefield, it would be absolutely impossible to make such progress.
Because the clone army has already deployed in-depth defense on the western outskirts of Fermoth City in the direction of the Fourth Civilization Army's advance. In addition to using robots to dig some trenches, they also used a large number of sandbags to surround the buildings to form a large number of fire points. .
By the way, when the number of portable laser fences is insufficient, the Republic army will still use a large number of sandbags as bunkers. Among all the materials readily available, sand is still the best material for buffering and cooling, and it also has a good effect on blaster rifle shooting.
Not only did the Galactic Republic clone army bring a large number of AT-TE walkers and AV-7 self-propelled artillery, but even the local garrison of Terminus planet was also equipped with a large number of artillery and mortars— —Produced by Santa Claus.
Yes, Yuri Orlov, the name of Santa Claus, is now so popular in the black market of the galaxy, not because of the scale of his arms business, but because of another Features.
While other arms dealers are still mainly smuggling blaster rifles, grenades or small spacecraft, Yuri Orlov has a soft spot for heavy firepower weapons.
Howitzers, mortars, rocket launchers and even rocket launchers!
Although these things are very ancient gunpowder weapons, they do not affect their power.
Anyway, when a 155mm grenade falls, it will not care whether you are a German SS or a clone of the Communist Party of China. All living beings are treated equally.
Such contraband is naturally strictly controlled by the Galactic Republic, but now that the war has broken out, no one can care about it.
Yuri Orlov's business is getting bigger and bigger, and he even opened his own black factories in some places, specializing in the production of various cannon grenades.
The planet Terminus is one of Yuri Orlov's large customers.
Under such a defense, if the Fourth Civilization Army wants to advance forward, it will inevitably face this crazy long-range firepower. Even if they broke through the western suburbs defense line, the Republic soldiers had already built countless firepower points and defense lines in the city.
This kind of defense line is highly recognized by even famous generals like Wilhuff Tarkin. He believes that it will take at least a year for these separatist troops to capture the city of Fermoth.
The premise is that they have so many soldiers' lives to fill this meat grinder-like battlefield.
Coupled with the anxiety on the space battlefield, now on the planet Terminus, it is basically a lone army from the Dawn Planet to confront the 18th Army of the Galactic Republic, which is constantly receiving support. The strength of both sides is clear at a glance.
The mainstream media of the Galactic Republic are already exaggerating the victory of the Battle of Terminus. They spare no effort in publicity and rack their brains to come up with various eye-catching headlines.
【Shocked! Governor Tajin is lying on the hospital bed, and the merit comes from heaven! 】
【The 19th Army's great revenge was avenged, with just one word from this person! 】【Famous experts angrily stated hundreds of reasons, concluding in one sentence that Dawn Planet will not survive next week! 】
[Tracing back to the road to victory, Speaker Palpatine actually started preparing 10 years ago! 】
【Looking at Governor Tarkin’s biggest mistake, he overestimated the planet Dawn! 】
【Who made the widow of Surama, the governor of the 19th Army, cry bitterly? Shaqima said that she would not marry anyone other than Tarkin! 】
[A professor surnamed Yang in a medical laboratory said that Tang Xiao, the governor of Dawn Planet, suffered from war addiction. If he was captured alive, he could be given a 20% discount on electrotherapy. 】
In such a warm atmosphere, all the people of the Galactic Republic who care about the war are waiting for when this inevitable victory will appear.
Correspondingly, the Federation of Independent Systems feels extremely pessimistic about this. Count Dooku had even given instructions, telling Tang Xiao, who had just visited the Lasax subplanet, that if necessary, Dawn Planet could shrink the front line, even if it gave up the former headquarters of the 19th Army, Haven Planet.
He also vowed to promise that once General Grievous's war on the planet Bosavi ends, he will personally lead the fleet to besiege the 18th Army and help the Dawn Planet get out of trouble.
Everyone in the entire galaxy knows that Dawn Planet cannot be delayed, and everyone also knows that Dawn Planet cannot be defeated quickly.
So the result is very clear - Planet Dawn will definitely lose.
But now, with the full support of Tang Xiao, Matt Horner told everyone about two life-and-death gambles in space and on the ground...
In this battle, our fourth civilization...
will definitely win! !
Countless assault spaceships fell from the sky like fire rain, the hatches opened, and the angry Fourth Legion soldiers and the bloodthirsty Incholi Avengers directly attacked the Republic army that was caught off guard!
The AV-7 self-propelled artillery position was destroyed, the quadruple blaster cannon anti-aircraft position was burning, and the wreckage of the AT-TE walker was billowing smoke.
Under the orbital airborne tactics, there was no longer any point of view on the entire battlefield, and the closely protected artillery positions and anti-aircraft firepower points were destroyed one by one.
The trenches lost their function, the carefully set up crossfire was useless, and the strategic reserves instantly became frontline troops!
Almost every place is burning, almost every place is fighting. There is no longer any battle line in the entire battlefield, there are only fighting and hand-to-hand combat!
On the front, the Army of the Fourth Civilization also launched a general offensive across the board!
The Republic's army no longer has organization, but they do!
The Republic Army no longer has long-range fire support, but they do!
They would not give the Republic army time to deal with the orbital airborne troops, but launched an attack while they were at their most chaotic and weakest!
If the most powerful thing about the Republic clone soldiers is their physical fitness and tactical literacy, they can remain calm even when facing ten times the number of robot armies.
But now, the tactical quality of the soldiers of the Fourth Legion is no less than theirs, and the physical quality of the Incholi people is even more direct!
After being airborne through orbit, the clone troopers had to face the Injori Avengers at close range, who were so huge that they were not even afraid of blaster rifle fire.
They wouldn't stand a chance...
