Chapter 838 The Lost Fleet (8)
837. The Lost Fleet (8)
This news shocked the Galactic Council, because the Jivin people have been from the beginning of the war until now. Very firmly asserting its status as a neutral galaxy. They did not allow ships from the Confederacy of Independent Systems to pass by, nor did they allow ships from the Galactic Republic to pass by.
It is precisely because of this that the Jager-Durr galaxy has become a wall between the 18th Army, the 19th Military District and the 20th Military District of the Galactic Republic.
But now, it is revealed that the Jiwen people are building warships on a large scale in the Yag-Dur system?
Faced with the accusations of the Galactic Republic, the Jivin councilors stated that they built warships entirely for self-protection, and they guaranteed that the warships they built had never been used in war.
However, Chancellor Sheev Palpatine, who had already smelled the smell, refused to give in, and sternly requested that an investigation team be sent to investigate what the Given people were doing in their own galaxy. The thing is, if it is the production of warships, then what warships are produced and how many are produced?
The Jiwen people were naturally unwilling to kill them, claiming that the Galactic Republic's behavior trampled on their sovereignty, and they resolutely resisted it. Moreover, this behavior of the Galactic Republic is tantamount to a slap in the face of all neutral planets, disregarding the Constitution of the Galactic Republic, and exercising power and dictatorship in the name of war.
The two sides were quarreling endlessly in the parliament, but the Givens were obviously at a loss in this matter. The representative of the Trade Federation, Lot Dude, had just experienced the Plague's raid on the Nubian planet, and now he It was difficult to guarantee and did not dare to speak out in support. Only the representative of the Interstellar Banking Association came out to argue a few words, but his voice was quickly drowned out.
At this time, Octavian, the governor of the 20th Army, had no time to continue quarreling with the Givenians. He led a fleet of 15 Jaeger-class battlecruisers across the Jager-Dur system and continued Heading towards the Halm galaxy.
But at this time, the Fourth Civilization took the lead. They responded earlier than the Galactic Republic and were closer to the Harm Galaxy. Fleet C led by Admiral Trench had arrived here two days ago. There were only a few small colonies on the planet Halm, and they surrendered immediately without any resistance.
The Harm Galaxy was originally under the jurisdiction of the 19th Army of the Galactic Republic. After the destruction of the 19th Army, the Fourth Civilization did not bother to pay attention to this planet. They simply declared neutrality. But now, the administrative officials of Halm Planet have never imagined that their own, a remote and indifferent planet, could actually attract such a huge fleet to arrive?
After General Trench occupied the planet Halm, he immediately commandeered the only spaceport on the planet and began to deploy defense lines, build Gauss weapon platforms, and arrange air mine positions, waiting for the arrival of the Republic fleet.
At the same time, he also summoned the best navigators, hoping to send the three Rookery Hook-class battleships filled with Gran Marines to the Blade Fleet.
On January 14, 21 BBY, Octavian Grant, the governor of the 20th Army of the Galactic Republic, led a fleet to the Halm system and exchanged fire with Admiral Trench's defensive fleet. Facing the iron barrel formation deployed by Admiral Trench, the Republic fleet returned in vain. Neither side had an advantage. After a melee, Octavian withdrew the fleet to the asteroid belt of the Halm system for repairs.
On January 15, the leader of the fourth civilization, Tang Xiao, arrived in the Halm system on Cunte’s Astro-class frigate. However, he did not participate in the offensive and defensive battle. He only had a face-to-face meeting with Admiral Trench, then returned to Murte's spaceship and began to think of ways to connect through this area where there is no hyperspace channel, but the distance is 11.7 light years. area and arrived at the location of the Blade Fleet.
In fact, strictly speaking, it is not that there is no hyperspace channel connection at all, but the hyperspace here is very unstable and intermittent. If the hyperspace connection is suddenly interrupted during the jump of the spacecraft, in order to prevent accidents, the protective equipment on the hyperspace engine will force the spacecraft to exit hyperspace and appear in the void of the universe, waiting for the next connection.
Because when the hyperspace channel is sailing, although it has to avoid the mass projections of those stars and planets, the coordinates of the hyperspace channel are also determined based on these mass projections. But the Blade Fleet is in a void without any stars, so it is naturally more difficult to locate.
The escort fleet sent by the Fourth Civilization before was to seize a good opportunity to connect to hyperspace and fly over.
As for Jon Shen, he uses the Force to navigate, so even if there is no hyperspace channel, he can keep the spacecraft in hyperspace and sail at a relative speed exceeding the speed of light.
...
At the same time, on the Blade Fleet side, the battle between the fleet led by Severance Tann and the fleet of Iss-Kos has been extremely fierce. Unlike the two sides in the Halm Galaxy who were still testing each other and were unwilling to lose too much strength, Severance Tann and Iss Kos were completely unwilling to give in in front of the huge cake of the Blade Fleet.
However, now the balance of victory has begun to tilt towards Severance Tann. The Republic fleet was attacked by a sudden appearance of a large group of Z-95 fighter jets, and soon Caught in chaos, all warships were fighting almost independently and were hit by a large number of proton torpedoes, leaving their shields in danger.
Then they were attacked by the Fourth Civilization Fleet with concentrated fire. Soon the shields of two Jaeger-class battlecruisers were penetrated, and then they were severely damaged and set on fire under more attacks. They had to move towards The rear of the line fled in panic.
The situation of the other three Jaeger-class ships is also very bad. This battle has reached the edge of failure. They are slowly retreating and want to withdraw from the area where the Blade Fleet is located.
At this moment, Shen Qiaoen finally couldn't sit still anymore. He connected to the communication of Isi-Kos and said loudly: "Stop retreating! We should continue to stay in the formation of the Blade Fleet! "
"Don't you know that the hangar platforms of the battleships in the Blade Fleet have been occupied by the separatists? "The situation is urgent, and it is impossible for Yisi Kos to give Shen Qiao a good look."
"No! They just occupied the hangar! They did not control the warships! Immediately send the marines to land on the warships of the Blade Fleet, and control every one they can!" Shen-Qiaoen said.
Ess-Kos finally woke up from a dream and quickly ordered all the fighters to withdraw to cover the landing of the Marines on the Blade Fleet.
The biggest advantage they have is that they can get the keys to the battleships of the Blade Fleet. They can activate the battleships directly without cracking them!
"After starting the engine, give priority to supplying energy to the turret! This will allow the battleship's turret to fire within 20 minutes!" Shen Qiaoen continued.
"Okay!" Isi-Kos made arrangements immediately.
A large number of clone troopers took shuttles and began to land on the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser of the Blade Fleet under the cover of V-19 Riptide fighters.
Seeing this scene, Severance Tann smiled coldly, "Haha, putting the cart before the horse! Ignore those shuttles! Continue to attack the Jaeger-class battlecruiser with all your strength!"
"If this continues, we will still lose." Shen Qiaoen looked at the battlefield situation map and kept calculating the situation, "There is only one way!"
"What way?" In the communication, Isi-Kos Not caring about anything more, I quickly asked.
Shen Jon looked at the broken body of the Plague and said fiercely: "Kill Severance Tann!"
