Chapter 2314 Raid Battle on Planet Kira (End)
2315. Raid Battle on Planet Kira (End)
The entire battle situation has completely collapsed. Michel Unser looked at the battlefield in despair. Even without looking at the holographic battle star map, just through the porthole of the bridge, he could see the cloud-like swarm in the universe. Drone formation.
Is this the true strength of the main fleet of the Dawn Principality? Michel Unser is extremely desperate. You must know that he has 1,000 battleships in his hands, and half of them are Imperial-class Star Destroyers!
So, how many battleships can compete with the main fleet of the Principality of Dawn? 2,000 ships? 3,000 ships?
Don't know... can't calculate.
From the intercepted opponent's combat communications, Michelle Unser learned a lot. For example, that large, top-heavy battleship was called the Apocalypse-class battleship. For example, the commander of the fleet that attacked from behind was the super-famous general Severance Tann.
Famous general? Does this situation still require a famous general? Michel Unser smiled mockingly... Even if the other side tied a bantha to the bridge and commanded it, he would win.
"General...I, we..." the adjutant came to Michelle and said tremblingly, but he couldn't finish his words halfway.
The atmosphere of fear has occupied the hearts of all imperial officers and soldiers. This is a desperate battle, a battle with no hope in sight, and they can't even hope that they can survive.
"The whole army retreats..." Michel Unser finally gave the order. He looked at the adjutant with extremely frightened face, sighed, and added: "No...not retreat...Escape for your lives, each of you. Escape back to Planet Kira... As much as you can escape..."
Boom~~~ There was a dull explosion in the bridge, and the ground was shaking slightly. Sure enough, the operator shouted loudly: "The deflector shield in the M-69 area at the bow of the ship has been broken!"
"Retreat! Get out of here!" Michelle Unser said in a deep voice.
The huge body of the Lusankaya Executor-class Super Star Destroyer began to turn and accelerate. At the same time, the entire 5,000 heavy-duty turbolaser turrets on the battleship were also firing wildly! The Lusankaya sailed on the cosmic battlefield as if it were a huge city in itself!
Even an approaching Shenshi-class battleship was bombarded by thousands of turbine laser beams. The main armor belt was penetrated, and fires and explosions broke out everywhere. Then it turned around and ran away without hesitation. The Xingzi-class maintenance drone carrier and the Pioneer-class logistics cruiser immediately rushed to perform emergency repairs on the battleship.
However, the Lusangkaya has completely ignored this rare opportunity to sink the Apocalypse-class battleship. Now they only think about how to get out of here.
There was a white light flashing at the edge of the battlefield. It was some imperial warships on the edge that quickly left the battlefield and started their hyperspace engines to escape.
However, most of the warships were entangled by unmanned interceptors, or were called out one by one by the powerful warships of the Principality of Dawn. They tried to forcefully start the hyperspace engine under countless artillery fire. Whether they could succeed or not only depends on the sky.
The Lusankaya is even more difficult. Although the Executor-class super Star Destroyer is extremely powerful, it is also the focus of attention. Almost all of the 50 Doomsday Arena-class battlecruisers came closer, and then aimed all their power-destroying devices at the Lusangkaya, causing the super battleship's reactor power to continue to decrease.
The Executor-class super Star Destroyer was like an old lion, staggering forward on the battlefield, and around it were countless ferocious and bloodthirsty wolves!
The battle lasted until noon on August 7. Seeing such a tragic battlefield, the planet Naboo finally chose to surrender. They no longer dared to offer any resistance.
And at this time, the Lusangkaya finally escaped. The shield of this Executor-class super Star Destroyer had long been broken, and it was on fire everywhere. It looked extremely miserable. But the 19,000-meter-long giant body still saved the battleship. Even though it suffered heavy damage, it still escaped from the battlefield under the desperate protection of more than a dozen Imperial-class Star Destroyers around it.
Now on this battlefield in the Naboo galaxy, there are almost everywhere the wreckage of battleships. There are still a few Imperial-class Star Destroyers still resisting, but their fate is doomed. Of course, Severance Tann could not let go of this opportunity. She immediately reorganized the first and second task forces, leaving some injured warships and relatively backward warships to clean up the battlefield, and left Ling Liang to command. And she herself organized all the main battleships into her second task force and advanced directly towards the planet Kira.
This decision made Ling Liang extremely dissatisfied, but as one of the initiators of Operation Plan Zero, Ling Liang still looked at things from a higher perspective. She did not argue with Severance Tann, but accepted it. This mission is to clean up the battlefield.
……
At 16:00 on August 7th, Planet Kalinda fell into the wind and did not dare to offer any resistance.
At this time, the planet Kira was in chaos!
After Imperial Navy Admiral Michel Unser finally returned to the planet Kira after a near-death experience, he learned that the army left behind on the planet Kira had been defeated!
20 Empire-class Star Destroyers, 50 Victory II-class Star Destroyers, and more than 130 light cruisers of various types faced the Separatists' 60 Catastrophe-class battlecruisers and 100 light cruisers, but they didn't even get a fight! !
You know, the disaster-class battlecruiser has no way of conducting close combat. Without the cooperation of other battleships, the disaster-class battlecruiser will really face disaster. However, this time, there were only 100 light cruisers to cooperate with the disaster class.
No matter how good the Victory II-class Star Destroyer is, it is still a Star Destroyer. Facing the three to five hundred meter long light cruiser, it is still a crushing level existence. How could this fail? !
Michel Unser also got the answer - the problem lies with those 50 'miniature Behemoth-class battlecruisers'.
Those 50 heavy cruisers, which look similar to the Behemoth-class battlecruiser but are reduced to 550 meters in length, can actually compete with the Victory II-class Star Destroyer! How is this possible? Is it said that in the interstellar era, being big means being strong? How could a 550-meter-long battleship compete with a 900-meter-long Star Destroyer?
But that’s what happened. The 50 ‘miniature Behemoth-class’ ships were met with a salvo of Yamato artillery fire, catching the Imperial defense fleet off guard and causing heavy losses. And seizing this opportunity, 60 disaster-class battlecruisers also took the opportunity to fire multiple salvos at the imperial battleships.
In the first round of strikes, 7 Victory II-class Star Destroyers and 1 Imperial-class Star Destroyer were lost, and the Imperial Defense Fleet immediately lost its will to fight. So their strategy changed to wandering and delaying, as long as the Cataclysm-class battlecruisers did not continue to bombard the planet's defense facilities.
This small separatist fleet was also very sensible. They fired several salvos at the imperial fleet. After seeing that the effect was not very good, they stopped after seeing good results.
But now, General Michel Unser no longer cares. He doesn't care if the Dawn Principality comes up with any amazing technology.
Because now, he is going to die!
At 19:00 on the same day, Severance Tann led the reorganized second task force to arrive at the planet Kira. Almost at the same time, the previously retreated small fleet including 60 disaster-class battlecruisers also arrived. Planet Kira, rendezvous with the main fleet.
Michel Unser looked at the broken fleet in his hands, and he had decided to die here.
