Chapter 906 Battle of Janfatal
905, Battle of Janfatal
Unexpected changes made the commander of the combined fleet of the Interstellar Banking Association and the Fourth Group, the Dark Jedi The warrior Uru-Ulix was at a loss.
The dispersed Republic fleet made it impossible for him to achieve decisive results in a short time through the powerful frontal firepower of the Behemoth-class battlecruisers and Generosity-class frigates, and he saw that the Republic fleet had begun to attack Janfatar. When the planet launched its landing, he was even more panicked.
The leaders of the workers’ strike organization on the planet have been pleading hard, asking the fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems to go to reinforcements as soon as possible. Because the powerful clone army of the Republic has been advancing towards the capital city of Atal, those troops who defected because they sympathized with the workers were no match for the clone army.
Uru-Ulix was just a Jedi apprentice with average qualifications. During the Battle of Bespin, he gained the favor of Darth Malthael by stabbing his master Green Betty in the back, granting him the power of the dark side. The strength has skyrocketed.
However, in the final analysis, he is still a Jedi apprentice with average qualifications, and he is unable to make decisions when encountering problems.
Under the pleading of the leader of the strike organization, Ulu-Ulix thought for a while and felt that it was also very important to get the support of the planet, so he also forcibly put down the landing despite the harassment of the Republic fleet. force.
However, compared with the Republic Fleet, which has the Cheer-class assault landing ship in the fleet, the fleet in the hands of Uru-Ulix is completely configured for fleet decisive battles. Although the Behemoth-class can There are also a lot of marines to carry, but it will be a lot more troublesome to transport them to the planet.
The increase in combat targets also dispersed the strength of the Confederate Fleet of Independent Systems, and ground battles on the planet Zanfatar also broke out.
Tens of thousands of independent system confederacy robot legions entered Atal City, the capital of the planet Janfatar. At this time, more than half of the city was occupied by striking workers' organizations. After the army of workers' organizations and the robot legions merged, fierce street fighting broke out. Then unfold.
The ruling party organization of the planet was unwilling to be driven out of the capital. They mobilized reinforcements from all over the planet and wanted to launch a counterattack.
After the Republic troops landed, the Jedi Knights of the Altis sect, led by Jein Altis, led the clone army into the city from several directions at the same time, and launched a very flexible guerrilla Combat.
The young Galactic Republic commander Gilad Pellaeon began to rise to prominence. Under his central command, the clone army exerted a more powerful combat effectiveness. They harassed the armies of workers' organizations and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Although the robot army is at a numerical disadvantage, it continues to delay the battle.
The street fighting lasted for about 5 days. As armies from various places continued to rush to the planet's capital, the robot army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the army of workers' organizations began to retreat.
However, at this time, the head of the planet's ruling party government, who had already seen the dawn of victory, was a little carried away. He publicly executed the leaders of the workers' organizations he had captured, and ordered his troops to speed up the process to eliminate the separatists and those who revolted within 3 days. The workers must be completely suppressed and driven out of the capital. It is best to kill them all!
Girard Pellaeon strongly opposed this resolution, but the head of the ruling party government, who had been dazzled by the victory, simply looked down on this young commander who had just turned 30, and issued the entire line with a wave of his hand. Attack orders.
The ruling party of the planet, with the support of the Galactic Republic, has been exploiting the working class of the planet. All they want is their own economic interests, and they don't care about others at all. During the frenzied attack by the government forces, the city of Atal was severely damaged and caused a large number of civilian casualties during the battle. Not to mention, government forces began a global purge. All workers who participated in the strike were arrested and executed without trial!
However, this approach aroused the resistance of the civilians on the planet. Ulu-Ulix was not a mediocre person, and immediately seized the opportunity to distribute a large number of weapons to those civilians. The Confederation of Independent Systems lacked control in this direction and did not have that many weapons delivered, so he contacted the famous arms dealer, Santa Claus Yuri Orlov.
Yuri Orlov has done a lot of things like supporting the planetary rebels against the ruling party since he started on the planet Seriya, and he can be said to be familiar with it.
While the Republic fleet was overwhelmed by the Behemoth-class battlecruisers of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, small transport ships loaded with various weapons entered the Zhanfatar planet one after another, flying Deliver weapons to cities where strikes and uprisings broke out.
Yuri Orlov was very sure of what these rebels needed. He sent a large number of high-quality and low-cost weapons, including anti-tank rocket launchers, mortars, short-range rockets, individual anti-aircraft missiles, and snipers. Rifles and stuff.
After entering the city, although the regular army of the ruling party of Jan Fatal had tanks and artillery, they were constantly attacked in the complex urban environment and were exhausted.
The anti-government armed uprising on the planet Zhanfatar finally intensified and reached the point of being uncontrollable.
The clone troopers of the Galactic Republic were told never to shoot at civilians, but as more and more civilians took to the battlefield, they had to stop their actions.
Worker uprisings broke out in almost every city on the planet. The ruling party’s army could only be trapped in the capital city of Atal and did not dare to leave. The clone army of the Galactic Republic and the robot army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems Instead, he became a supporting role.
The first battle was unfavorable, and the somewhat frustrated Captain Girard Perrine had to submit a withdrawal application to the fleet commander. However, his original combat goal has been achieved. This ground battle has lasted for a month, and almost all of his energy was involved in the ground battle. The fleet of Uru-Ulix has never been able to defeat the fleet of the Republic. .
In the end, Gilad Pellaeon returned to the space battlefield. This failure did not affect the fleet commander's evaluation of him, and he joined his staff team.
During this month, the Republic fleet also received a lot of reinforcements. The number of Jaeger-class battlecruisers increased to 20, which carried a large number of fighter jets to the Interstellar Banking Association and the Fourth Group. The combined fleet posed a huge threat.
At this time, news came of the sudden attack by the geth. Their attack targets were not only the Galactic Republic, but also the areas controlled by the Confederation of Independent Systems. As a result, the space battle on the planet Zanfatar came to an end, and both sides began to retreat. .
