Chapter 1576: The Ending of the Second System Army
1576. The Ending of the Second System Army
Count Dooku has firmly gained the advantage, and Mace Windu is completely gone The power to fight back.
The violent seventh form of swordsmanship, Wapad, is now unable to be violent. It is like a beast locked in a cage. It only has the ferocious claws and tusks, but they are no longer there. any threat.
Just like the Second Galaxy Army he led, they have become caged animals and can only sit and wait to die!
"No! No! This is impossible! You should not be my opponent, Dooku!" Mace Windu roared loudly, and the purple lightsaber slashed down with extremely powerful momentum.
Actually, in the early days when both of them were still in the Jedi Order, they would sometimes compete with each other, but generally they were evenly matched. Both of them were masters of swordsmanship, and both had reached the pinnacle of excellence, so Basically, there was victory and defeat for each other, and the two of them also gained a lot from this kind of competition.
But as time went by, the ideological differences between Dooku and Windu became larger and larger. Later, even in the Jedi Order, the two were basically strangers, let alone friendly. of discussion.
However, after Master Windu created the Wapad sword technique, after many verifications, it is basically recognized that the Wapad sword technique has a great influence on the second Makashi sword technique that Dooku is good at. Strong restraint relationship.
In addition, Dooku later fell directly to the dark side, but the seventh sword technique Wapard was able to get a lot of bonuses in the battle against the dark side. Because Wapard swordsmanship uses the Force in a completely different way, the negative effects of the dark side can be enhanced for Wapard users.
Therefore, Master Windu has always been confident that he is definitely stronger than Count Dooku, and their confrontation on the planet Thule also proved this. And as Count Dooku gets older, Master Windu, who is in middle age, also has greater and greater advantages.
However, now, he found that he was no match for Count Dooku! Such a gap is completely unacceptable to Mace Windu!
I saw Count Dooku draw his sword like lightning, and the blood-red cranked lightsaber stabbed Windu's sword three times in a row. Windu instantly found that the movement of his Force power was stagnant! Seizing this momentary flaw, Count Dooku raised his hand to grab it, and a console on the battleship was immediately torn off by the Force and hit Master Windu hard!
Bang! Master Windu was knocked several meters away by this blow. However, just as he was retreating continuously, Count Dooku arrived first and stabbed straight at him with the lightsaber in his hand!
Mace Windu was unable to resist, and the sword stabbed directly into his left mechanical eye! If he hadn't been able to dodge quickly, the stabbing would have been so strong that his head would have been damaged immediately.
However, even so, the terrifying high temperature generated by being stabbed by the lightsaber directly burned Mace Windu's wound, causing him to scream in agony!
At this moment, Severance Tann's voice suddenly came from the communication, "There is a shuttle and a fighter jet flying over at high speed. Our anti-aircraft fire can't stop it. It should be Jedi." Samurai."
"Oh? It seems that your companion is here? I'm looking forward to fighting him now, and you, very much. It's a pity that I can never see it again..." Count Dooku said lightly, raising his lightsaber to give Mace Windu the final blow.
However, at this moment, to everyone’s surprise, the ETA-2 fighter jet opened fire directly! Two proton torpedoes flew at high speed and suddenly exploded on the bridge of the battleship! The Endurance is basically in a paralyzed state. Without the deflector shield, these two proton torpedoes have exerted their maximum power!
Boom! boom! ! ! The devastating explosion immediately blasted a big hole in the bridge, and everything inside was sucked out by the vacuum!
After this crazy move, the Lambda-class shuttle next to it passed by at high speed, grabbed Mace Windu with a tractor beam, and turned around without slowing down at all!
Count Dooku, who stabilized his body in the vacuum airflow and used the Force to protect himself, was furious. He raised his hand and grabbed the one belonging to Savage Opress next to him. He threw the two lightsabers directly at the relatively closer fighter!
This sword is so fast that even an ordinary electromagnetic gun cannot reach it under the acceleration of the Force! Pierce a big hole directly in the ETA-2 fighter jet!
The fighter jet suddenly emitted billowing smoke, and then it lost the ability to control and rolled in space. The next second, the anti-aircraft firepower launched from the Destruction directly blew the fighter into a ball. Fireball! !
However, the Lambda-class shuttle has disappeared into the horizon.
Don't forget, even if a raid was launched, Severance Tann still led only the Destruction and dozens of other small battleships. They were still deep in the center of the formation of the Second Galaxy Fleet, and the Third Although the Second Galaxy Army has been defeated, their existing warship power still has an advantage.
Count Dooku looked at the direction in which the spacecraft disappeared, his eyes full of anger!
"You actually saved a life! Mace Windu!" Count Dooku gritted his teeth, "Is it a coincidence? Is it luck? Or is it destiny? No... destiny, it should be returned to darkness!"
< br>...
The Lambda-class shuttle that rescued Mace Windu did not stay, but flew directly away from the battlefield.
This latest shuttle equipped by the Galactic Republic is specially used to pick up and transport the most important people, without considering the cost at all. Therefore, safety and speed are all top-notch configurations.
In this chaotic battlefield, it is already an impossible task to find this shuttle.
Although Count Dooku, who returned to the Destruction, was furious, he could only accept the reality that Master Windu had escaped from a desperate situation. He couldn't blame Severance Tann. After all, relying on conventional anti-aircraft firepower, it was almost impossible to shoot down a fighter jet flown by the top Jedi Master.
And the behavior of the Lambda-class shuttle to save Master Windu was crazy!
The first is to launch a proton torpedo directly at the bridge. This can be avoided by Count Dooku who is at the peak of his condition, but it is fatal for Master Windu who has been seriously injured. ! If you don't pay attention, he will be blown to pieces.
Then they use a tractor beam to catch Master Windu, which is equally crazy! You know, tractor beams are generally used by spacecraft to grab cargo in space. They are equivalent to an invisible crane, which is actually very convenient.
But the tractor beam can only grab metal objects! After Master Windu was seriously injured by Depa Billaba and the Angel of Death on the planet Harunkar, he became a paraplegic at a high position. He could only undergo mechanized transformation, so of course there was metal on his body.
It’s just that in this case, the mechanical prosthetic limb on his body is grabbed by the tractor beam and then flies at high speed, which is equivalent to constantly tearing the mechanical prosthetic limb on his body! Such pain is unimaginable! And even if he escaped from the battlefield, whether Mace Windu would still be alive was a question. It can only be said that the person who came to save him had already thought about the most difficult plan, and in order to increase the success rate of escape, that person sacrificed everything he could!
Of course, after Mace Windu, the supreme commander of the Second System Army, fled the battlefield, the leaderless main fleet of the Second System Army has almost come to an end,
< br>
In fact, before the communication was restored, it didn't matter whether the dragons were leaderless or not, because those battleships had no idea that Master Windu had escaped. Therefore, they continued to be harvested by the fleet led by Severance Tann.
In such a desperate battle situation, many warships chose to surrender - the separatists continued to issue signals on the radio, telling those warships that as long as they shut down their engines and lowered their shields, it would be regarded as an act of surrender and they would be Will not be attacked.
This time the communication interference is not continuous. As mentioned before, a mere 80 Sentinel-class electronic warfare frigates are not enough to shake the communication system of the entire Second System Army's main fleet. After all, the firewalls of those large warships are not just decorations. Their energy levels are much higher, and they cannot cause interference under normal circumstances.
So, after the magnetic field explosion caused by the Destruction detonating the electromagnetic nebula subsided, the communications of the Second Galaxy Army were finally restored.
At this time, they got the news that their supreme leader Mace Windu was missing!
It's not just that Mace Windu is missing! And the information obtained from the survivors of the Endurance showed that he had killed his fleet commander Admiral Sopnos before! The reason why there are still survivors on the Endurance is because the surviving officers and soldiers on the battleship chose to surrender immediately after seeing Master Windu being rescued by the shuttle.
Not to mention, in the subsequent battle, the entire fleet staff and senior officers on the Endurance were also directly affected! The entire command system equivalent to the Second Galaxy Army has been paralyzed.
Of course, compared with the paralysis of the command system, the collapse of the morale and fighting spirit of the officers and soldiers at all levels of the Second Galaxy Army is a fatal problem!
More and more warships surrendered, and after communications were restored, the number of warships discussing surrendering together was also greater.
Less than three hours after Mace Windu was rescued, the battle near the planet Antwei was completely over.
The main fleet of the Second System Army, surrender!
The Second System Army participated in the Battle of Antwy System with a total of 118 capital ships, including 80 Jaeger-class battlecruisers, 5 Invincible-class battlecruisers, 25 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers, and 8 Victory I-class Star Destroyers.
There are also 325 small and medium-sized warships, including 90 Aquitens-class light cruisers, 50 Karak-class light cruisers, 50 armed Consul-class cruisers, 50 CR-70 frigates, DP- 20, 80 anti-aircraft gunboats and 5 Apocalypse-class light cruisers.
During the battle, 27 Jaeger-class battlecruisers, 5 Invincible-class battlecruisers, 18 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers and 3 Victory I-class Star Destroyers were destroyed or disabled. Small and medium-sized battleships The loss was more than half.
After Master Windu disappeared, all remaining battleships surrendered!
After excluding those warships that were seriously damaged and were better to be dismantled than repaired, Severance Tann received a total of 42 Jaeger-class ships, 5 Dreadnought-class ships and 5 Victory I-class ships.
Small and medium-sized warships received 59 Aquitens-class light cruisers, 16 Karak-class light cruisers, 40 armed Consul-class cruisers, 2 CR-70 frigates, and 21 DP-20 anti-aircraft gunboats ships and 5 Apocalypse-class light cruisers.
Here, the armed consul-class cruisers are too weak in firepower, so almost no one wants to deal with them. After all, they were originally just unarmed spaceships, and later installed turrets to join the battle, so so many of them have been preserved. .
The Apocalypse-class light cruisers were retained intentionally by Severance Tann and did not attack them. After all, after these warships surrender, they can be directly incorporated into the Navy of the Principality of Dawn, without even needing to modify them.
As for the CR-70 frigates, Karak-class light cruisers and Invincible-class battlecruisers, these battleships that were eliminated in the Galactic Republic Navy were almost completely wiped out due to insufficient combat capabilities.
Not all of the Second System Army participated in this battle. Half of their battleships remained on the planet Garos IV and the planet Mandalore. After receiving the news that the main fleet had been annihilated, these warships immediately left the star field and returned to the Galactic Republic.
The other two fleets were commanded by the fallen dark Jedi masters Ki-Adi Mundy and Re-Gul. After sensing the danger, they flew their fighter planes away to the Antwi system, finally saving Master Windu, but they also lost control of their fleet.
The officers and soldiers of the Second Galaxy Army were not very willing to betray the Galactic Republic, and many of them were just coerced. Therefore, after suffering a disastrous defeat, they abandoned Master Windu and the others without hesitation.
Now these officers and soldiers want to have their merits dismissed, hoping that their actions in bringing the fleet back will allow the Supreme Military Court to forgive their previous treasonous behavior.
However, the verdict one month later showed that these people obviously thought too much. They were all convicted of serious crimes by the Supreme Military Court. After several of the officers were executed, the rest were all sent to the mining areas to mine - of course, this is all a story later.
When the Destruction was cleaning the battlefield, the fighter jet that was pierced by the lightsaber thrown by Count Dooku and then destroyed by the Destruction's anti-aircraft fire was also recovered.
The mutilated body of the driver could no longer be distinguished. It could even be said that it was just a few lumps of burnt rotten flesh. But Count Dooku knew the identity of this man through his perception of the Force—Jedi Master, Ray Gur.
Then this basically confirms that the person driving the Lambda-class shuttle is none other than Ki-Adi Mundy!
It is precisely because of his powerful strength and control that he was able to make such extreme moves and rescue Master Windu from under the nose of Count Dooku.
After cleaning the battlefield, Count Dooku said some words to Severance Tann about recruiting, and then returned with the Titan battleship Darkness, who had been watching the show from afar in the Yawen system. The subplanet of Laxus.
