Chapter 2140 Order-37
2141, Order-37
Planet Rosa, although it is not a particularly important one among the major planets of the Trade Alliance, after all, the location of this planet It's in the core circle of the Milky Way. In such an environment where the economy and industry are extremely developed, no matter how poor the planet is, it will still have great strength.
What’s more, this is the Trade Alliance! It is not an exaggeration to say that it was the second largest economic entity in the galaxy at its peak!
So Planet Rosa is still armed to the teeth.
Planet Rosa is a planet dominated by immigrants, and its indigenous people, the Rosa people, are actually a very excellent race. Their bodies are flexible and flexible, yet powerful, and they have four tentacles on their heads that are very sensitive to light. The Rosa people are extremely good engineers. They were also one of the first races to establish a trade alliance, so they also have very strong economic and industrial strength.
There are about 4 billion Rosa people on the planet, and more than 9 billion immigrants of other races. Previously, Planet Rosa was a planet with good racial diversity, and it was also considered one of the most powerful races among the many participating races in the Trade Alliance.
It’s just that after the rise of the Galactic Empire, although senior officials and the media did not admit it, the empire, which pursued human supremacy, was not very friendly to the planet Rosa.
So this time the Galactic Empire declared war on the Trade Federation, and the Rosa people did not hesitate to side with the Trade Federation.
And they were attacked by Darth Vader.
In order to protect their homeland, the Rosa people resisted. They relied on the planetary shield and orbital defense system, and cooperated with the armed space stations and Gauss defense platforms around the planet to launch a resolute counterattack.
But Darth Vader was also very determined, and the fleet under his command launched a storm-like offensive. He doesn't intend to waste too much time on Planet Rosa at all. He wants to destroy Planet Rosa's resistance in the shortest possible time!
After three years of the Clone Wars, and the following four years of the siege of the planet Salukami, as well as the continuous rebellion and suppression after the establishment of the Empire, Darth Vader has long been prepared to command such a battlefield. It has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. His fleet was like a huge battle axe, continuously slashing at the defense line of Planet Rosa.
On July 17, three days after launching the attack, the Gauss defense platforms and armed space stations outside the planet Rosa were wiped out, and the Imperial fleet began bombarding the planetary shields of the planet Rosa.
The orbital defense cannon built on the surface of the planet Rosa also kept firing. The turbolaser beam fired by this giant cannon more than two hundred meters high is fatal even to an Imperial-class Star Destroyer. of!
However, the orbital defense cannon's rate of fire is very slow and the range it can cover is limited. It cannot truly withstand the siege of the Imperial fleet.
Two days later, on July 19, Planet Rosa’s planetary shield was broken!
Without any hesitation, Darth Vader, who had been standing on the bridge of the flagship, just waved his hand vigorously. The adjutant behind him immediately stood at attention and saluted, turned around and said loudly: "The landing ship is dispatched immediately!"
Two Cheer-class assault landing ships began to enter directly into the planet's atmosphere, followed by more than 130 CSS-1 transport ships, full of Imperial Stormtroopers.
At this time, a dense burst of missiles suddenly attacked! Almost off guard, one of the transport ships was hit by several missiles that were too late to intercept, and exploded violently. The Imperial Stormtroopers transported on it all exploded into a ball of fire!
Dozens of frigates appeared in the field of vision as hundreds of fighter jets appeared. It was the planetary defense fleet that had never appeared before!
Most of those frigates are Javelin-class missile frigates produced by the Principality of Dawn, and many of the fighter jets are export models of Phantom fighters, and some are relatively backward Z-95 Headhunter fighter jets.
It turned out that all of these battleships were hiding in the planet’s atmosphere!
Darth Vader immediately ordered the fighter formations of the Imperial Fleet to enter the atmosphere and fight fiercely with the fighter formations of Planet Rosa. At the same time, he did not care about the lives of those stormtroopers and ordered the landing operation to continue!
The warships of the Imperial Fleet also began to lower their altitude and fired directly from the outer layer of the planet at the defense fleet warships in the planet's atmosphere. It doesn't matter even if the attack is empty, just treat it as an orbital bombing.
After determining the landing direction of the imperial fleet, more fighter jets and battleships from Planet Rosa also rushed to the battlefield. The first to bear the brunt are the Vulture robot fighters, which number more than 2,000!
Almost all combat forces in the Trade Federation are equipped with a large number of these robot fighters. Even if their performance has lagged behind, they can still pose a great threat with their huge numbers.
In addition, the huge figures of several Generous-class frigates appeared in the atmosphere of Planet Rosa, as well as the 1000-class light cruisers, as well as the Apocalypse-class light cruisers and Revenge imported from the Principality of Dawn. -class destroyers and other battleships.
The Rosa people have adopted such a posture of concentrating all their fleets in the planet's atmosphere, and are completely prepared to fight against the Galactic Empire!
But Darth Vader would not stop, nor would the Imperial fleet's attack.
Forty Victory II-class Star Destroyers penetrated directly into the planet's atmosphere and engaged in close firefights with the planet Rosa's defense fleet. At the same time, 10 Chaser-class aircraft carriers also lowered their altitude and entered low-Earth orbit. With the support of the aircraft carriers, thousands of TIE/LN combat secrets took off densely, swooping towards the planet Rosa like hungry locusts. go!
On July 23, the sky above Planet Rosa has been basically cleared. The planetary defense fleet was almost completely destroyed, and fighter jets no longer dared to fight in large formations. They could only break into pieces and hide in some hidden airports, harassing the transport ships of the Galactic Empire from time to time.
At this time, a more brutal battle on the ground had already begun.
The first batch of 60,000 landing troops of the Galactic Empire has completed the landing 200 kilometers east of the capital of the planet Rosa, and established a stable landing site. After completely gaining air supremacy, a steady stream of supplies and soldiers began to be transported down.
A ground attack on the planet Rosa also began.
After advancing more than 30 kilometers, the imperial army encountered the first ground force of Planet Rosa. This force numbered more than 100,000 people and built a strong defensive position in a town to block the empire. The advance of the army.
In the sky, TIE bombers kept whizzing past, dropping powerful bombs on all exposed fire points. The Imperial Army also set up a small number of AV-7 self-propelled artillery and launched a bombardment of towns.
Boom! boom! boom! ! The sound of explosions was endless, and a large number of defense force soldiers were blown to pieces in the explosions. But this does not dampen their will to resist.
The Imperial Army launched the first wave of attacks, with Imperial Stormtrooper clone troopers wearing white combat armor as the vanguard, followed by a larger number of ordinary soldiers wearing gray military uniforms. But what greeted them was the crazy firepower network hidden in almost every building!
A large number of imperial soldiers were shot and fell to the ground. TIE bombers kept circling and bombing in the sky, but they still could not break through the defense line and suffered heavy losses.
In the sky, the huge figures of two Victory II-class Star Destroyers slowly flew by, their powerful turbolaser cannons aimed at the town, and they fired directly after reducing the power!
At the same time, Darth Vader, standing on the bridge, coldly issued an order: "Execute, Order 37! (ExecuteOrder37.)"
