1569. The Cage of the Trapped Beast (The End of the Second Galaxy Army)
——————————————
A general who does not know astronomy, geography, formation diagrams, and military strength is mediocre. ——Textbook of the Fourth Imperial Military Academy, "Military Formation", Preface.
——————————————
Communication interference, the main fleet of the Second Galaxy Army was completely blinded and turned into a group of mutes!
Of course, they can confirm the battlefield situation through sensors and battlefield radar, but without communication, they lose unified deployment. It would be fine if their opponents were ordinary people, but unfortunately, standing opposite them...
It is Severance Tann who has put herself on the throne of the first general in the galaxy with one wonderful victory after another since the outbreak of the war!
"Steady! Steady!" General Sopnos said loudly on the bridge, "Our forces still have the advantage! Order all ships to hold their formation and don't run around! Restore communications as soon as possible! Send me a shuttle Go to every battleship and convey my orders to them face to face!"
Having said that, he was still extremely anxious. He walked a few steps to the holographic star map and asked, "What is the Separatist fleet doing now?"
"They are gathering! The battleship Destruction has sailed out of the electromagnetic nebula!" the radar soldier replied immediately.
"Asshole! Asshole! They want to take the initiative to attack! No...this formation...in this formation we will be defeated one by one! The opponent is Severance Tann!" Admiral Sopnos looked at the battlefield Seeing the situation, he slammed the console, "No! Call the shuttle back! Call it back! Modify the order and let the ships move closer to each other!"
"General! The first shuttles have taken off!" The adjutant was also covered in cold sweat.
"Call them back, don't you understand?!" Admiral Sopnos was furious.
"General, our communications have been completely paralyzed..." the adjutant said. The implication is that if you can call me back, go ahead and call me.
However, at this time, the chief of staff said from the side: "General, if our battleships are allowed to get closer to each other... the other side has the Destruction! That electromagnetic pulse cannon..."
There was suddenly a deathly silence on the bridge.
"That's it...has Master Windu been contacted?" Admiral Sopnos asked, covering his forehead.
"General, our communications have been completely paralyzed..." the adjutant replied with exactly the same words as before.
"I know! I fucking know!! I fucking know!!!" Sopnos was completely furious, and he roared hysterically.
…
On the bridge of the Destruction, Severance Tann was always sitting in her seat, holding a pointer in her hand and shaking it gently, "Fire the directional high-energy electromagnetic pulse cannon once to disrupt the opponent's formation, and then attack directly."
"General Tann, the strength of the Second System Army still has an absolute advantage... Should we make some preparations? For example... let the Sentinel-class electronic warfare frigates interfere with the opponent's fire control system..." The adjutant said carefully Put forward his own opinions.
"Are you a ***?" Severance Tann looked at him as if he were a fool. "If you can't do the job of an adjutant, just retire and go farming."
"No...no, General Tann, I just want to be on the safe side..." the adjutant said.
"The battlefield is changing rapidly, and there is no safe explanation." Severance Tann snorted coldly, "In the previous operations, I have already tested the opponent's commander, and he is just a mediocre person. In fact, Those truly capable officers will naturally go smoothly in this war era. How can such a person follow Mace Windu to rebel? Those who are willing to follow him and leave the Republic are nothing more than those who think their talents are not appreciated and feel that the Republic I owe myself, feel like I’ve been framed, etc. I always feel like I can soar into the sky if I change the environment...hehehehe..."
The adjutant lowered his head and said nothing, with cold sweat covering his forehead. He could naturally tell that Severance Tann was actually alluding to him.
In Severan
In Si Tann's army, she wants people who can keep up with her own thinking speed, not mediocre people who are steady and steady. Just like the current adjutant, what he just said was stupid. If those 80 Sentinel-class electronic warfare frigates had the ability to interfere with things like the fire control system while interfering with the other party's communications, then this battle would not have been so grinding and probing from the beginning.
It is precisely to defeat the weak and the strong, so we need to work step by step, constantly plan, and then we need a bold determination to take risks!
Buzz~~~~~The hull of the Destruction shook for a while, and through the portholes, a dazzling ball of lightning could be seen disappearing into the sky in an instant.
Directional electromagnetic pulse cannon, fire again!
Severance Tann didn't even look at it. With her back turned to the dazzling light, she swung her pointer and said sternly: "Issue an order for all warships to follow my order and launch an attack immediately! Let those who The mediocre people of the Second Galaxy Army should take a good look at what the art of command is!"
Following her order, the Destruction immediately began to turn, bringing the number of Behemoth-class battlecruisers, which had increased to 15, and more than 200 small and medium-sized battleships, rushing towards Mace Windu's first battleship like a pack of wolves. Two-star army!
In order to avoid the Destruction's electromagnetic pulse cannon, the formation of the Second System Army was originally very scattered. In addition, now that communications have been cut off, the battleships do not dare to act rashly. They are afraid that their random actions will disrupt the formation and make the situation even more chaotic. , so when Severance Tann assembled all her warships to directly attack the flanks of the Second System Army's main fleet, almost all the Republic warships stood still!
This is the first stage reaction of those combat units when there is no communication - to stand still.
Under the command of Severance Tann, those small and medium-sized warships brought their respective characteristics to the extreme! The Cobalt Alloy-class frigates attract firepower, the Javelin-class guided missile frigates provide long-range firepower support, the Brown Bear-class heavy destroyers conduct roundabout assault and cut formations, the Guard-class air defense destroyers roam within their own formations for air defense, and the Apocalypse-class light cruisers are responsible for intercepting the enemy's small and medium-sized missiles. Battleship.
The Behemoth-class battlecruiser relied on the powerful power of the Yamato cannon to concentrate its firepower on the targets that threatened the most in the Second System Army's main fleet formation. The so-called greatest threat does not refer to the type of warship, but to the current location of that warship and the threat it can pose to one's own warships. This requires dynamic judgment.
As for the Destruction battleship, it did not shrink back, but boldly rushed to the front to attack, relying on its 500 medium-sized turbolaser cannons to tear apart the defenses of the Second System Army battleships with raindrop-like attacks. Moreover, directional electromagnetic pulse cannons are also being fired continuously. The primary purpose of firing is not to paralyze many warships, but to continuously disrupt the formation of the opponent's warships, making it impossible for them to assemble to counterattack.
Under this storm-like offensive, those Second Galaxy Army warships that stood firm and wanted to resist on the spot immediately fell into a desperate situation of losing sight of one thing!
Three Jäger-class battlecruisers were destroyed less than 20 minutes after Severance Tann officially began her counterattack.
At this time, other Second Galaxy Army warships suddenly woke up from a dream and began to come from all directions for reinforcements. The originally neat formation suddenly fell into chaos.
So they entered the second stage of reaction after communication failure-running wherever there was trouble.
This is just like a football match. If one side has tactics and training, but the other side has no cooperation, then the result will definitely be that the players of the side without cooperation will watch the ball and run wherever the ball is. Because they don't know where running is effective or where running is useless when there is no ball, so they instinctively choose the plan with the least possibility of error - running with the ball.
As a result, he was naturally beaten through the defense by a few long passes from the well-trained opponent, and then singled out the goalkeeper.
And this is what Severance Tann is doing!
Those reinforced battleships are completely controlled by robots, even those Behemoth-class battlecruisers! Only in this way can all systems of the battleship be shut down and cooperate with the Sentinel-class electronic warfare frigate.
hide.
Therefore, these battleships are actually very rigid when controlled by robots. But there is also an advantage, that is, even if they are asked to die, they will not hesitate!
In fact, Severance Tann planned to sacrifice those Behemoth-class battlecruisers driven by robots as well! In order to eliminate the Second Galaxy Army, she can completely accept such a small loss!
She has made enough preparations to keep the Second System Army in a state of turmoil through the constant harassment of the Destruction. At the same time, she has hidden a large number of small and medium-sized warships near the Neutral Alliance, and secretly instigated rebellion on many planets.
This allowed Mace Windu and Thorpnos to misjudge the strength gap between the two sides, split their fleets into three, and launched an active attack on the Destruction. Even now, part of the Second System Army's fleet is stationed on Mandalore and Garros IV in case anything changes. Those who took the initiative to attack the Destruction were about half of their fleet.
Half of the fleet gave Destruction the possibility of defeating the opponent.
Then, through all aspects of planning, this half of the fleet, led by Mace Windu, was able to launch an attack even if the situation was not good, which laid another layer of guarantee for the final victory.
Later, with his excellent prediction and command skills, he did not retreat but advanced when fighting the overwhelmingly superior enemy fleet, breaking through the formation of the main force of Mace-Windu, entering the electromagnetic nebula, and at the same time causing the opponent's fleet to collapse. There was no time to gather together for the siege.
Finally, the electromagnetic nebula was detonated, triggering a magnetic field explosion and counter-interfering with the communication system of the Second Galaxy Fleet.
However, even after doing so much work, in the end, Severance Tann still had to face the overwhelmingly superior strength of the Second System Army in a head-on confrontation!
As she said, there is no real surety on the battlefield. Even with her planning and her confidence, she could only do this. Who doesn’t want to interfere with the fire control system while interfering with the other party’s communications?
But for a famous player like Severance Tann, this is enough!
Under the command of Severance Tann, the Separatist fleet truly transformed into a hungry wolf! Her command was completely meticulous and meticulous, and it was applied to almost every battleship!
Because most of these battleships are controlled by robots, she can only issue orders to the most detailed points, including steering angle, shield power, etc.!
The current battlefield between the two sides is very long due to the dispersed arrangement of the Second Galaxy Army, with a width of almost 200,000 kilometers. But such a huge battlefield, in the eyes of Severance Tann, is just a chessboard! She controls hundreds of chess pieces at the same time with speed, imagination, and logical thinking that ordinary people can't even imagine!
In the battlefield, a Victory-class Star Destroyer was being besieged by dozens of small battleships. Missiles fired from the Javelin-class guided missile frigate continued to explode on the Star Destroyer's shield. The two Apocalypse-class light cruisers always stayed behind the side of the Star Destroyer, avoiding its main gun group and firing continuously.
The fighter formations of the Second System Army wanted to attack those Javelins, but were blocked by the separatist triple fighter jets and guard-class air defense destroyers. After paying a lot of losses, they only destroyed one Javelin.
At this time, four Brown Bear-class heavy destroyers suddenly began to accelerate from hundreds of kilometers away! At the same time, all the firepower on the separatist side attacked the side of this Victory-class ship!
The Brown Bear-class heavy destroyer is not a very flexible warship. It mainly has thick armor and a rapid-fire electromagnetic gun that is incredibly powerful but cannot guarantee accuracy. At the same time, another characteristic of the brown bear class is that their straight-line speed is very fast!
After the engine entered the overload state, these brown bear-class ships, which were hundreds of kilometers away, rushed over in a few seconds! At the same time, almost as if it was getting better, the Apocalypse-class light cruiser just overloaded the side shield of the Victory-class Star Destroyer!
Almost face-to-face, the 300-caliber rapid-fire electromagnetic gun equipped on the Brown Bear class fired hundreds of heavy projectiles in a few seconds, and none of them missed! The outer armor of the Victory-class Star Destroyer was immediately torn apart with a huge hole.
son!
One of the Brown Bear-class ships had no intention of slowing down at all, and crashed directly into the opening! This 290-meter-long heavy destroyer directly transformed into a super cannonball, which penetrated directly from the port side of the Victory class to the center under huge acceleration, and then triggered a violent explosion!
The 7 or 8 Jaeger-class battlecruisers not far away saw this scene and quickly turned to reinforce them. At the same time, a pair of fighter formations also rushed over. However, they had just walked halfway when a dazzling electric light flashed. Three Jaeger-class ships and hundreds of fighter jets were suddenly hit by electromagnetic pulses. Their electronic components failed and they were paralyzed.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, these dozens of small warships immediately evacuated from this battlefield and turned to another lone Jaeger-class ship 5,000 kilometers away! This Jaeger-class ship was not originally alone, but because other warships came to reinforce the Victory-class Star Destroyer that had just been destroyed, there was a short gap for it to drift outside the formation.
This is the opportunity!
This is the wolf pack!
With no communication or command, the scattered Second Galaxy Army was like a herd of seemingly fierce cattle, being constantly eaten away by cunning wolves.
