“Range and time are the weaknesses of this Titan battleship Xuanwu?” Admiral Theost said in a deep voice.
A staff officer said: "No wonder they arranged the fleet in a dense formation, just to allow as many of their warships to enjoy the protection of the Xuanwu!"
"But equally Yes, if our fleet formation is too loose, it will be difficult to concentrate our firepower. And if we cannot concentrate our firepower, it will be difficult for us to even destroy one of their warships under the protection of the opponent's Titan warships," another staff officer said.
At this time, only four Dunov-class battlecruisers were seen approaching the Xuanwu. The sensors on the Republic battleship also immediately discovered that these Dunov-class battlecruisers were assisting the Xuanwu in charging!
“General, I don’t know how long it takes for the group shield device of the opponent’s Xuanwu Titan battleship to cool down and recirculate, but I think we should counterattack as soon as possible now. While we still have the ability to damage the separation When fighting a warship," the adjutant said.
Theost didn't hesitate at all and immediately said loudly: "Notify all ships to reorganize their formations immediately and launch a counterattack!"
"Yes!"
西Admiral Oster looked at the holographic battlefield projection in front of him with a gloomy look, "These separatists still want to pursue them now? In this case, don't blame me."
This was the real reason why he immediately adopted the suggestion and launched a counterattack!
On the holographic battlefield projection, it can be seen that the separatist fleet began to disperse as the battle continued.
The main reason is that the formation of the Galactic Republic fleet was originally a loose formation, and during the battle, the separatist warships, which had the upper hand with the protection of the Xuanwu, continued to pursue them, and unknowingly they also His formation was stretched out.
And it is obvious that the opponent's commander did not adjust this. Was it intentional, or did he not think of it, or was he just not busy enough?
"The commander of the separatists...Ling Liang..." Theost said to himself, "Transfer Severance Tann and leave this little-known general behind. , what is the dead angel of separatism thinking?”
As the order was issued, the Galactic Republic fleet, which had been stunned before, finally recovered. They also found that the previously rampaging Separatist fleet had finally calmed down a lot and acted more cautiously. Many warships began to recirculate their shields. .
Theost was not a mediocre person. He made a decisive decision and immediately ordered a counterattack.
Under his command, the Republic fleet's currently broken formation was reorganized on the spot, and it pierced directly into the Separatist fleet's formation like more than a dozen sharp knives!
......
At this time, on the bridge of the Titan battleship Xuanwu, Darth Malthael was also watching the development of the battle, "Ling Liang did a great job. , so far her command has cooperated well with the Xuanwu.”
"Sir Governor, the interference matrix system has been charged." A technician came over and lowered his head and said.
"Let the Xuanwu rush forward, and then follow my instructions to activate the interference matrix." Darth Malthael said coldly.
"Yes!"
......
"General! The other side's Titan battleship Xuanwu is advancing!" the staff officer said loudly.
On the battlefield, the huge body of the Titan battleship Xuanwu began to accelerate forward, and soon rushed to the front of the formation of the fourth civilization fleet.
And this huge body is naturally a fire magnet. The warships of the Republic fleet turned their turrets and fired wildly at the Xuanwu!
The Xuanwu also unleashed its full firepower without hesitation!
The Xuanwu's main gun is the same type of pulse laser cannon as the Agniev-class interstellar base. A total of 8 guns are installed, which are installed at the tips of the hull on both sides. If the entire battleship structure is viewed as a rectangular parallelepiped, then these 8 main guns are installed at each corner. Although the pulse laser cannon's turret is small and its steering is very flexible, this structure also prevents the Xuanwu from fully exerting its full firepower no matter what posture it adopts.
Of course, from another perspective, this arrangement also minimizes the problem of firepower dead spots around this strange-looking Titan battleship.
At the same time, Xuanwu also deployed a large number of close-defense turrets and vertical missile launch systems. Most of these weapon systems are arranged on both sides of the hull, and the middle body is only equipped with a small number of close-defense turrets. It's just a blind spot of firepower.
The staff officer of the Galactic Republic is right. This layout is very similar to a castle. The hulls on both sides are the walls that protect the battleship itself, and most of the weapons are installed on it.
But even so, the Xuanwu's firepower is still very fierce, and it does not fall behind when faced with the siege of more than 20 Jaeger-class and Aquitens-class ships.
"What are they doing? Showing off? Or do they want to test the performance of the battleship?" Admiral Theost frowned.
"General, it has been detected that the opponent's Titan battleship is charging again!" the soldier controlling the sensor shouted.
"Is it another group shield? Under the current formation, this Titan battleship can only protect at most one-third of their battleships." Theost hesitated, not knowing for a moment what should be done. How to deal with it.
But he is hesitating. The Titan battleship Xuanwu has no intention of stopping!
Suddenly, everyone only heard a low sound coming from their headphones and speakers, like a whistle that was several tones lower! The sound lasted for about half a minute, and many people couldn't stand it and took off their headphones.
"Is it a sonic attack or communication interference? Deal with it as soon as possible!" Theost covered one ear and ordered loudly.
But this was just an ordinary sound, but at the same time as the sound sounded, almost all electronic systems were interfered with to varying degrees.
"No! It's electromagnetic interference!" the engineer from the technical department said loudly, "Our protective measures are taking effect! The system operating efficiency has been reduced by about 9%, which is within the controllable range! I think... maybe... ...We have resisted this interference?"
Theost breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could relax, the urgent voice of the battleship's power department came through the communication, "General! General! There is an unknown failure in our reactor! The energy output of the engine has been reduced by 10%!"
"The charging rate of the turbolaser has been reduced!" The fire control department also sent a communication, "Wait...stop! General! Half of our turrets are temporarily unable to charge!"
"Damn it! Is it an all-round interference?" Admiral Theost finally understood the reason for the enemy's Titan battleship. He clenched his teeth and looked fiercely at the Xuanwu Titan battleship showing off its might on the battlefield, and said loudly: "Retreat the entire army! Withdraw from the gravity circle of the planet Eriadu! Reorganize your deployment and wait for reinforcements!"
"Report! The separatist fleet has launched another attack! More than 80% of our warship systems have been affected, and combat efficiency has been reduced!"
"General! The damage control department found that some armored belts were affected by electromagnetic interference from the separatist warships , causing shallow damage!"
The bad news came one after another, and he roared, "Bastard! This battleship... inform the Supreme Strategic Command. ! I want reinforcements! I need Commander II dreadnoughts!"
Boom! ! boom! ! boom! Several proton torpedoes hit his flagship in succession, causing the battleship to shake. The operator quickly turned the battleship and flew away from the battlefield.
After the Signal Corps also sent the message, they turned back and said: "The Supreme Strategic Command called back and immediately reported all combat information related to the Xuanwu. The more detailed the better! At the same time, two Commander II-class dreadnoughts were launching At the same time as the letter was sent, we had already set off from the planet Kuat and are expected to arrive at the planet Dacanel one day later, together with the current batch of reinforcements.”
"This Titan battleship is a new personal threat! It must be eliminated!" Admiral Theost looked fiercely at the Xuanwu Titan battleship on the holographic projection.
