Chapter 917: Battle of the Western Territory: A Tragic Failure
916. Battle of the Western Territory: a Tragic Failure
Marastal Planet, outer space, 40,000 kilometers above the ground.
10 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 35 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers were entangled, and deadly heavy turbolaser cannons continued to fire.
At this distance, the planet Marastal is very huge in the field of vision, and the turbo laser beams continuously emitted by the fleets of both sides seem to be countless death fireworks lit up on the planet.
The Republic's warships assumed an offensive stance and rushed straight towards the Confederate Fleet of Independent Systems. However, their purpose was just to escape into the planet's atmosphere and escape the fate of destruction.
Both sides also took off their remaining fighter jets. The Republic Fleet still has less than 100 V-19 Torrent light fighters, while for the Confederacy of Independent Systems, General Severance Tann is the leader of his own fleet. 350 triple robot fighters are retained.
There is a gap in both quantity and quality of fighters on both sides. Coupled with the comparison of warships and firepower on both sides, the Republic's fleet is at a comprehensive disadvantage!
Master Cape Xie led a squadron to take off for combat. There was also a Jedi Apprentice and a Jedi Knight in the formation, flying Delta-7 fighter jets. They became the only hope for the Republic fleet.
If their fighter formation cannot cause damage to the flagship of the Confederate Fleet of Independent Systems and cause chaos to the other party, then they may not be able to return to the atmosphere with their lives.
Kep-Xie turned the fighter engine to maximum speed, and the acceleration instantly surged to a terrifying 2000G!
However, this place is already very close to the planet. Under the influence of the planet's gravity, the fighter jet trembles and shakes violently every time it accelerates, as if it is about to fall apart.
But this speed was enough. She rushed into the formation of the triple robot fighters at lightning speed. The AI of the robot fighters could not lock on to the target flying at such a fast speed and could only shoot randomly. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kep-Xie kept firing, and within ten seconds she shot down 7 triple robot fighters!
Suddenly, a series of explosive beams were fired. Kep-Xie sensed the approaching crisis and started to turn left in advance to avoid it, but almost at the same time, another series of explosive beams were fired directly to her left side!
This feeling!
"Dark Jedi..." Cape-Xie gritted his teeth.
However, when she looked at the radar, she was stunned!
Because she discovered that in front of the formation of 10 triple robot fighter jets approaching her rapidly, there was a Delta-7 fighter jet! And it’s the blue and white livery of the Confederacy of Independent Systems! !
"Traitor..." Kep-Xie suddenly changed direction, bit the opponent's Delta-7 and opened fire wildly.
The fighter jet also rolled flexibly, easily dodging all the shots. Immediately afterwards, the triple robot fighter formation led by the opponent also began to unfold, and under the command of this fighter jet, it rushed over from various angles.
The V-19 fighter jets flown by the clone pilots in the Cape-Xie formation were unable to compete with the triple robot fighters, and several were shot down in just one encounter!
The fighter jet flown by the opponent's Dark Jedi Knight also took the opportunity to dodge Cape-Shay's shooting and suddenly turned. The wings kept shaking, and the blaster cannon fired a burst. Using the shooting angle caused by the shaking of the wings, at A web of fire formed in front.
"No!!!" came an exclamation from the communicator, and then he saw that the fighter jet piloted by the Jedi apprentice was hit by several blaster beams, and the aircraft exploded and burned directly in space. Then the flame was extinguished instantly and turned into countless fragments flying around. At this time, a very familiar face appeared on the screen in front of Kep-Xie, "Surrender, Master Kep. This is your only way to survive."
" Master Adi Gallia... I once thought you were dead." A trace of regret flashed in Master Kep Xie's eyes, "I didn't expect you to become a traitor to the Republic!"
"I am indeed dead... Maybe I betrayed the Republic, but I did not betray the way of light! The behind-the-scenes of this war are far more complicated than you imagine!" Adi Gallia said, "Now, surrender , before I shoot you down."
"There is no word surrender in the Jedi's creed!" Cape-Xie said loudly.
"You will die here! You know you are no match for me!" Adi Gallia raised his voice, "I... don't want to do this."
"Then come Go ahead! Kill me! Your hands are already covered with blood!"
The two Delta-7 fighter jets flew through space at a speed that even electronic instruments could not lock on!
But the movement frequency of one of them was obviously faster than that of the other. The fighter jet kept changing its angle and direction, and finally blocked the opponent's dodge angle with a series of shots. Then it fired again, and the scorching blaster beam instantly penetrated the fighter. The wing of a Delta-7 fighter jet.
The wing was penetrated, and the out-of-control fighter was hit by more blaster beams, eventually turning into a ball of fire and completely blown up.
The Republic fighter formation, which had lost its leader, was massacred by the triple robot fighter formation that had an absolute advantage in quantity and quality. Such a tragic scene was like swatting flies.
Similarly, the artillery fire of 35 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers continued to explode on the 10 Jaeger-class battlecruisers!
The shield was broken, the armor was penetrated, and the exploded armor fragments and corpse fragments were blown dozens of kilometers away along with the air sprayed from the hull.
But the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser continued to fire, and the powerful turbo laser hit the outer armor of the Jaeger-class, causing tragic explosions one after another...
One of the Jaeger-class battleships The cruiser was finally overwhelmed by the constant bombardment. First, the weakly armored bow hangar platform was broken in the explosion. Then, the explosive gas and missiles stored in the hangar were detonated one after another, and the explosion spread to the battleship. Behind, in the end, the battleship was blown into four parts of different sizes, and fell directly towards the planet Malastar.
Almost every one of the remaining Jaeger-class battlecruisers was seriously damaged, with flames constantly spurting out from the damaged sealed cabins, but they were still struggling to rush into the planet's atmosphere. .
The gravity generators of two of the battleships were damaged, and they were unable to land perpendicular to the direction of gravity with relatively small resistance, and they fell directly crookedly. Under the extremely violent air friction and high temperature, the hull of the ship, which had been overwhelmed during the continuous attacks, suddenly shattered, and the battleship disintegrated directly in mid-air!
The bridge of another battleship was attacked intensively, and the entire bridge was plowed flat. Then the engine stalled during the attack. Although luckily it did not cause the energy module to explode, the battleship also became deformed. It became a steel coffin that could not move at all, floating on the outer periphery of the Malastar planet, and then slowly being pulled into the planet's atmosphere by gravity...
