1563. The Cage of the Trapped Beast (The End of the Second Galaxy Army-6)
This electromagnetic pulse covers The range reaches thousands of kilometers. Even if the Republic fleet has begun to evade in advance, some warships are still affected. The Galactic Republic is researching ways to counter Conqueror-class battleships, and scientists from the Confederation of Independent Systems are naturally competing to further improve their weapons designs.
The improved version 2.0 directional high-energy electromagnetic pulse gun currently used on the USS Destruction battleship. The most important improvement is the range and diffusion speed of electromagnetic pulses (in the plot, Anakin Skywalker drives a spaceship to avoid electromagnetic pulses).
Including the CR-70 frigate, those small and medium-sized warships simply cannot withstand this wide range of electromagnetic pulses! All electronic systems of the battleships it passed were paralyzed, and their engines lost all power, floating in space.
However, the Jaeger-class battlecruiser was able to withstand the electromagnetic pulse of the Destruction this time. Although most of the electronic systems of the three Jaeger-class ships affected were still paralyzed, the most critical energy system was still preserved, allowing the battleship to Have the ability to withdraw from the battlefield as quickly as possible.
In addition to the key protection of the energy system, there is another system on the Jaeger-class battlecruiser that is protected by a complete set of electromagnetic pulse defense systems, and that is the communication system. This ensures that if the battleship is attacked by a Conqueror-class battleship, it will at least have the ability to send back the news of the attack, and will not be unable to send back a single word like the Venomous Fang did before, and in the end almost took Master Plo-Kon on board. There.
This time, Severance Tann rushed in this direction immediately after launching the directional electromagnetic pulse. The Destruction battleship is all equipped with medium-sized turbolasers. Although there are as many as 500 twin turrets, it still suffers a big loss in terms of effective range. In order to maximize its firepower, it must be closer. .
"Hmph! Seeking death!" Mace Windu saw that the Destruction did not retreat but advanced, with a look of a desperate situation, and sneered, "All battleships are on full fire! Completely destroy the Destruction. ! ”
The Republic’s battleships and fighter jets immediately poured fire on the Destruction.
But then they discovered that it was not easy! Although the 500 twin-mounted medium-sized turbolaser cannons installed on the Destruction do not perform well in attacking opponent's warships, as a multi-functional artillery, its performance against fighter jets is very good.
The 500-gun turret has almost no dead spots for firepower. Under the powerful and advanced fire control system, those V-19 Riptide light fighters of the Galactic Republic were shot down in large numbers, and the Y-wing bombers covered by them were also difficult to obtain. An opportunity to drop bombs at close range.
In addition, the formation of the Republic fleet is very scattered, and the Destruction is constantly firing electromagnetic pulse cannons to interfere. This actually allows the Destruction's formation to rush directly into the Republic fleet, and it is likely to penetrate directly with a stick. momentum!
At this time, the other two fleets sent by Master Windu to intercept the Destruction also entered the Antwei system, and only then did they understand Severance Tann's intention to take the initiative!
The Destruction has rushed deep into the formation of Master Windu's fleet, but is getting further and further away from the other two squadrons. If the Destruction had continued to stay near the Antwi planet and resisted, there would no doubt have been surrounded by now!
But now, there are not only the directional electromagnetic pulses of the Destruction, but also the powerful Yamato cannons of the five Behemoth-class battlecruisers. This has resulted in the Republic's warships not daring to appear in front of the Destruction at all. They can only come from Rush in from the side and rear and shoot coldly.
So the battle situation became a situation where the Destruction and the small fleet continued to attack Mace Windu's fleet, while the other two fleets of the Republic could only chase behind.
In a short period of time, the numerical advantage of the Galactic Republic fleet cannot be used.
And Severance Tann wants this ‘short time’!
The battleship Destruction has turned around and is flying towards the asteroid belt outside the planet Antwi. As mentioned before, as a young galaxy, the star-making movement of the Antwi galaxy has not yet ended. There is only one formed planet, the Antwi planet, in the entire galaxy, and there is another planet outside the orbit of the Antwi planet. The asteroid belt is also filled with electromagnetic nebulae.
Perhaps in hundreds of millions or even billions of years, these asteroids and nebulae will gradually form two, three or more planets, and then in the collision with each other, more matter will be ejected to other orbits, forming a new planet. Another new planet makes this galaxy lively. But now, these early planetary materials will become the best hiding place for Doom!
Seeing the movements of the Destruction, Mace Windu clenched his teeth, and the expression on his face gradually became ferocious, "What? You still want to run? Chase after me! You can't let it go. The Destruction runs away! Blood debt will be paid!"
He looked at the holographic star map again and snorted, "Prepare my fighter planes! I will lead the formation myself. Get out!"
"Yes!" The fleet commander made arrangements quickly, and finally said carefully: "General Windu, the information we just received from local communications confirmed that the commander of the opponent is Seve. Lance Tann..."
"So what?" Mace Windu gave him a cold look.
"This... Severance Tann is a famous general on the separatist side, and has never been defeated on the battlefield..." the fleet commander whispered.
"No defeat? Huh! I remember that she was chased like a lost dog by Shen Qiaoen, my former apprentice!" Mace Windu said.
"But...General Windu, Severance Tann..."
Mace Windu waved his hand, "I know that she is very good at commanding the fleet. , no one can defeat her in the military formation. But now, she only has so many troops! If you don't seize the opportunity to eliminate her now, will you be able to ensure it when she leads the army? Defeat her? ”
"This..."
"Attack!!" Mace Windu ignored the submissive admiral, turned and walked out.
"..." The fleet commander hesitated, but Windu ignored him at all. He walked out of the bridge and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
"General Sopnos...do you think there may be a problem this time?" The staff officer next to him came over and asked.
“If it’s my military common sense, I don’t know how much room the Destruction will have to struggle this time. Their retreat has been cut off, and the Separatists have no direction to send reinforcements. This is a strangulation battle with absolute advantage." General Sopnos sighed, "But the opponent is Severance Tann!"
