419. General
When the huge ring-shaped hull of the Rookery Hook-class cargo ship emerged from hyperspace, even though they knew it was just an unarmed cargo ship, the Elu people were shocked.
This ring with a diameter of more than 3,000 meters has a sphere with a diameter of 1,029 meters in the middle. Such a huge scale represents industrial capabilities that the Ailu people will be hard-pressed to match in their lifetimes.
What's even more frightening is that the spaceship is located just in front of the incoming Airu supply fleet! !
"How is it possible! How did they do it!! The jumping point is obviously within the gravity well of the Fang of Kuna!" General Tyrese was shocked. "Inform the supply fleet to take shelter immediately!"
"They are still in the hyperspace channel, how can we notify them?" In desperation, the communications soldier also directly responded.
"Where's our spaceship!?" Tyrese yelled.
"5 minutes left!!"
At this moment, white light flashed, and more than ten transport ships left the hyperspace channel and appeared in the universe! After the pilots of the transport ships took a clear look at the scenery outside the portholes, they were all stunned by the huge Rookery Hook-class cargo ship in front of them!
Almost at the same moment, Canidi gave an order, and fighter jets took off from the Rookery Hook-class cargo ship.
More than 100 blade fighters took off from the cargo ship's extremely wide flying platform at the same time and headed straight for the Airu transport ship.
The Blade fighter is limited by performance and space and can only be equipped with blue lasers, primary energy shields and up to 4 Gemini air-to-air missiles, which has squeezed the structure of this type of aircraft to the limit.
But these fighter jets piloted by B-1 robots are enough to pose a threat to transport ships that only have basic defensive firepower! The Ailu transport ships scattered and fled, no longer daring to approach the direction of the planet. The scene suddenly became chaotic.
Telsi was very decisive and immediately issued an order, "They don't have enough fighter jets! All spaceships take off fighter jets and focus on attacking the cargo ship!"
The transport ships have all been dispersed by Blade fighters. It will take a lot of time to rescue them one by one. At this time, it is very likely that some transport ships will be shot down. It is better to directly encircle Wei and rescue Zhao, attack the Ruklihuk-class cargo ship, and force the opponent's fighter jets to return for reinforcements.
The Aru fleet currently on the Fang of Kuna planet includes a total of 10 Defender-class frigates and 5 CR-12 light frigates. The Defender class is an early warship produced by Rendili Star Dynamics Company. It is 94 meters long, 71 meters wide and has a flat shape. The CR-12 is an early model of the most classic CR series frigates of Corellia Engineering Company, with a length of 100 meters.
Of course, like the Defender class, the so-called 'early' refers to the Sith War period, about 3,000 years ago... Although technology develops to a certain extent, bottlenecks will appear, which means that there will no longer be a problem from steam. to this leap-forward development of electricity. Therefore, the technology of 3,000 years ago was not necessarily so backward that bows and arrows could fight against electromagnetic guns. At most, assault rifles could fight against electromagnetic guns.
Therefore, these warships that were mass-produced during the war and later eliminated were received by those planets and became their defense fleets.
After thousands of years of imitation, the Airu people have been able to build some crude imitations of this kind of warship. This is where their greatest confidence lies.
Regardless of quality, the Airu people with two industrial worlds at least have a large fleet.
Sure enough, as Telsi expected, the Rookery Hook-class cargo ship didn't even fight back and just kept being beaten passively.
"Continue the attack!! Sink that cargo ship! Give the Dawn Planet some color!" Tyrsi yelled.
"General! A large number of off-road vehicles have been dispatched from the Dawn Planet and have arrived at the outskirts of the city. They are firing at residential buildings!" the communications soldier said loudly.
"Deploy 5 brigades of troops to resist! Other ground troops should not act rashly!" Tersi immediately ordered.
Hundreds of Airu soldiers disguised as civilians boarded hoverbikes and rushed straight towards the convoy on Planet Dawn. Gunshots suddenly rang out outside the city.
The Dawn Planet sent more than 30 Warthog off-road vehicles and more than 50 Mongoose off-road motorcycles. They strafed the residential buildings on the outskirts of the Airu colony, and even used rocket launchers to launch rockets. After a burst of bombing, they saw Airu. The Lu defenders took action and immediately began to retreat.
The angry Airu people followed closely, but they soon discovered that although they could catch up with the Warthog on hoverbikes, they were no match for the opponent's powerful firepower, and were quickly dispersed. But the Dawn Planet's convoy did not run far, it just kept hanging and constantly harassed everywhere with its mobility.
Telsi did not notice that the three fronts formed now formed a strange balance.
The Blade fighter jets lacked firepower and were unable to destroy the transport fleet in a short period of time. The Airu spacecraft was also unable to pose a threat to the Rookery Hook-class cargo ship in a short period of time. The ground battlefield also showed that it was impossible to catch up. A situation where those who can win cannot catch up.
At the same time, in the Noire City command center, Volgograd-Kanidi had been standing in front of the screen, watching the battle intently without saying a word.
"Sir, how did you do that?" The series of operations just now made the adjutant Jin Chen, who had already been deeply suspicious of Canidi, drop his jaw.
"I have been monitoring the arrival time and route patterns of the Airu supply fleet. With the electronic system of the Rukrihuk-class cargo ship, it is not difficult to do this." Canidi said calmly.
"But...how could that cargo ship jump directly into the planet's gravity well through hyperspace navigation?! And if it's not in that position, it's likely that the opponent's transport fleet will run away!"
"It's not a gravity well there, at least not now." Canidi replied, "Because in the last week of this standard month, the flare activity around the star has greatly increased, which will affect the magnetic field of the Fang of Kuna. , thus slightly reducing the actual range of the gravity well. The star chart of the navigation system will not record this change, because it does not affect navigation."
Jin Chen exclaimed: "So, you have been planning this battle for a long time?!"
"It is the duty of a colonial governor to understand the astronomical laws within his jurisdiction and the activities of his neighbors. I never want to fight with anyone." Canidy slammed his fist on the table with anger.
"But now we are... we should be able to kill this small fleet of the Aru people, right?" Karls Wharton on the side also asked.
Canidi gently touched the beard on his chin, "With our strength, we cannot checkmate all three lines, so I need to test the opponent's chess strategy, and then consider how to... checkmate!"
