1105. Possibility of victory
21BBY, September 9th.
The outer ring of the Milky Way, the industrial world Sullest Planet.
Darth Malthael stood in the space port, looking at the vast starry sky without saying a word.
The hermit was still wearing the coarse robe, lowering his head and following Darth Malthael. At this moment, his hands were still shaking a little.
Ciri-Taki was dead, killed by his own hands.
Yes, he killed his... beloved woman with his own hands.
Regardless of whether the hermit admits it or not, Ciri-Taki does occupy a very important position in his heart.
However, he had no choice...but to kill Shiri-Taqi.
He kept comforting himself that Shiri Taqi was dead and was resurrected by the angel of death. Killing her now would be her relief.
However, in the final analysis, he still stabbed the lightsaber into her cold heart.
The angel of death gave him a choice, but in fact, the hermit knew that he had no choice...
The dead angel wants to fall to the dark side...
The hermit took a deep breath and calmed his force until there was no fluctuation at all.
Darth Malthael looked back at him and snorted coldly, his expression not very good. He could feel the fluctuations of the hermit's force, and could feel the extremely firm light in his heart.
This feeling made Darth Malthael feel sick.
But he also knew that it was almost impossible to make Obi-Wan Kenobi fall to the dark side. He is like a saint, pursuing his own path and his own truth.
Maybe the light in his heart is not firm, but it is flexible enough. You can flatten and round it into any shape, but you can't change the nature of its light.
However, after the Hermit indeed killed Ciri Taqi, Darth Malthael finally confirmed that he could be used.
At this time, the communicator in Darth Malthael's hand rang, and Adi Gallia appeared in the holographic projection. She bowed and said: "My Lord Governor, the battleship Xuanwu has left the hyperspace channel. It is estimated that 10 Arrive at the spaceport in minutes."
After hearing the name 'Xuanwu', which was pronounced strangely in the galactic common language, the hermit was also a little curious and looked up out of the spaceport port window.
But what I saw was not only the vast starry sky, but also the vast starry sky.
The 10-minute flight of the spacecraft far exceeds the limit of human vision, even with the Force.
Time passed very quickly. When he saw the spaceship appearing in his field of vision, even the calm hermit felt a surge of turmoil in his heart!
This is... the battleship that the Angel of Death was waiting for himself?
This is...the new enemy of the Galactic Republic?
The hermit closed his eyes in pain.
…
At the same time, the planet Eriadu was in outer orbit.
Hundreds of warships from the Galactic Republic and the Fourth Civilization are engaged in a brutal fierce battle here. Both sides have invested a large number of fleets, and the Fourth Civilization has devoted all its resources! Among the hundreds of warships that are constantly fighting, there are almost 200 thousand-meter-level battleships alone!
In addition, there are even more densely packed small warships including the Galactic Republic's Aquitens-class light cruisers, CR-90 frigates, and DP-20 gunboats, as well as the Fourth Civilization's Javelin-class missile frigates, Guard-class anti-aircraft destroyers, and other small warships.
Although the planet Eriadu has been captured by the Fourth Civilization, the Galactic Republic does not intend to stop there. A large number of fleets are arriving one after another, determined not to fall into the hands of the separatists even if it is turned into scorched earth.
Ling Liang, general of the Army of the Fourth Civilization and Governor of the Sethwenna Sector, stood in the vast and advanced command center on the Eriadu satellite, commanding this massive battle.
Jiwen's mathematics team has been assisting from the side, using zero-mode probability to predict the actions of the Republic warships and assist General Ling in commanding.
On the other side, among the huge fleet of the Galactic Republic, Republic Admiral Theost stood on the bridge of the flagship with a stern expression. He also continued to issue instructions and command his fleet to fight.
Compared with the time when the hyperspace storm just subsided, the Galactic Republic fleet has continued to receive reinforcements, and the number of Jaeger-class battlecruisers is close to 100! There are also more than 150 other small and medium-sized warships!
Even though the warships coming from behind were not fully equipped with fighter jets, there were still more than 20,000 Republic fighter jets operating around the planet Eriadu at this moment. They swarmed in like a swarm of wasps and launched a non-stop attack on the battleships of the fourth civilization.
The current fleet of the Fourth Civilization is dominated by the Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers of the Blade Fleet. There are currently more than 130 Dreadnought-class ships on the battlefield, as well as others including your Martha-class guided missile heavy cruisers, Cole-class battlecruisers and Solo-class battlecruisers. There are more than 50 Watt-class aircraft carriers in total.
Although the number of warships on both sides is evenly matched, on the one hand, the number of fleet fighters of the Galactic Republic is extremely large, and on the other hand, the Republic is constantly arriving with reinforcements. The war potential of the two sides is not on the same level at all!
It is also a thousand-meter-class battleship. For the Galactic Republic, if it sinks, it will sink, but for the Fourth Civilization, it will be a piece of meat.
"General Ling, according to our calculations, we will completely lose the battle on the planet Eriadu within the next six months. There is almost no possibility of victory." A Jiwen mathematician came over and said to Ling Liang .
"Victory will definitely belong to us." Ling Liang said calmly with calm eyes, "Everything is according to the plan of the Governor."
…
"Separate 10 Jaeger-class warships and bomb the interstellar base structure that the Separatists have completed on the equator of the planet!" Admiral Theost was giving instructions on the flagship of the Republic fleet, "In addition, strengthen the surveillance of military targets on the surface of the planet. Bomb! Send out all the Y-wing bombers!"
He shook his fist fiercely as he spoke.
It was he and Master Yoda who previously commanded the battle to attack the Model Sector of the Fourth Civilization. But that battle made him extremely painful. Master Yoda adhered to the bottom line and was absolutely unwilling to harm civilians or orbital bombardment. This made the Republic fleet fall into trouble under the strong-wall clearing strategy of the Governor of the Model Sector Volgograd-Kanidi. Passive, and ultimately defeated in the air battle outside the orbit of Annaji's planet!
"This time, I want to get back everything I lost in the Model Sector!!" Theost couldn't help but say it out. He shook his fist fiercely and said loudly, "The whole army is coming!! Our backup!" Endless! Even if it means collision, I will knock down every separatist warship left!!"
Under his command, the Republic fleet was divided into three. Two fleets attacked the nearly completed Agonev-class interstellar base in outer orbit over the south and north poles of the planet Eriadu. The third fleet was the largest. The main fleet of the Fourth Civilization continued to put pressure on the main fleet of the fourth civilization.
Theost used the power in his hands unscrupulously, and he felt extremely happy.
Compared to when we were in the Model Sector, where we didn't dare to fire artillery, orbital bombing, or harm civilians, now, this is war!
This is the war he wants!
Use the strongest firepower to tear the enemy into pieces!
This is war!
At this moment, an officer from the Radar Department walked over quickly and said, "General, the hyperspace sensor has detected large-scale hyperspace fluctuations!"
