1592. Battle of Feida (Part 1)
"1 o'clock direction! Fire! Hold on! Don't let them break into the 50-meter range!" The clone officer commanded loudly.
boom! boom! Boo hoo hoo~~! ! Blaster rifles and rockets immediately fired intensively in that direction, killing a large group of zombies over there.
After temporarily delaying the progress of the corpse puppet, a whistling sound was heard above the head!
boom! boom! boom! boom! ! A terrible explosion immediately completely covered the area ahead! Even wearing full-coverage helmets, the clone troopers had to hide behind cover to avoid being blown away by the air currents generated by the terrible explosion.
When he raised his head again, he saw that the front was covered by a sea of fire, many buildings had been blown up, leaving only a ruins. The group of corpse puppets that roared and rushed forward no longer existed.
However, every clone trooper understands that this is just the beginning.
These corpse puppets made by ordinary civilians are just used by the geth to waste their defenders' ammunition, and at the same time, they will also expose their firepower point settings.
Sure enough, just a moment later, countless light balls appeared in the sky, passing over their frontline positions, and shooting directly towards the rear artillery positions and firepower points hidden in the buildings!
boom! boom! boom! ! Suddenly there was a burst of fire from behind.
The two sides exchanged wild firepower, and at the same time, under the cover of a large number of corpse puppets used as cannon fodder, the Yamrayi corpse puppets that could fly short distances launched the next wave of attacks!
And the geth themselves also appeared again. They moved extremely fast, and even among the burning ruins, they could not stop their footsteps.
At the same time, the clone soldiers also discovered that these geth were different from the types they had encountered before! In addition to the most common geths, there are also geths equipped with heavy firepower; elite geths who are over 3 meters tall and covered in red paint can only fight with the firepower of several squads.
With the emergence of these more advanced and difficult-to-fight geth, even the clone soldiers can only retreat steadily!
…
On the space battlefield, Vice Admiral Henderson led the Republic fleet to fight the geth fleet. And even here, the situation facing the Republic fleet is not optimistic!
As we all know, geth warships are extremely powerful and maneuverable, making them very difficult enemies to deal with. Their combat style tends to be close combat, and they don't even form any formations, they just charge forward and attack like crazy.
In order to deal with this wolf-like offensive, Lieutenant General Henderson concentrated all the warships into a defensive formation, with a group of fighter jets guarding the periphery of the fleet. Under the cover of a large number of fighter jets, he could barely resist the geth attack.
But the situation is still not optimistic!
Less than half a day after the battle began, Geth sent reinforcements again! More than a dozen warships suddenly appeared without warning and joined the battle.
The two sides fought fiercely for several hours again, until the various systems on both sides' warships overheated and became difficult to maintain, and then they gradually separated and reorganized.
Vice Admiral Henderson's fleet paid the price of destroying 3 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 3 Aquitens-class light cruisers, and destroyed 4 geth cruisers, 1 destroyer, and 7 frigates.
This exchange ratio is quite ugly for the Galactic Republic, considering that the geth cruiser is only a 300-meter-long medium-sized battleship.
At the same time, the consumption of fighter jets of the Hesitant Republic fleet was also very serious. More than 1,500 fighter jets were lost in this battle. If this continues, when the fighter formation cannot provide strong support, their warships may be in a A more extreme unfavorable situation.
"Where did the geth reinforcements come from?! Why is there no response from the monitoring outpost!!" Lieutenant General Henderson asked loudly.
"General! There is indeed no response from our hyperspace detection equipment! And we have conducted maintenance and there is no problem with the equipment. Unless, they did not use hyperspace jump." During the communication, the commander of the monitoring outpost said.
"Then you
You want to tell me that the geth warships flew here with sub-light engines? Lieutenant General Henderson roared.
"General, we really don't know..." the surveillance post commander said with a sad face.
"In short, I want you to increase surveillance! Keep an eye on me 24 hours a day! I can no longer face the enemy's reinforcements again and again without knowing anything about it!" Lieutenant General Henderson said loudly.
"yes!"
Henderson turned back and said: "As soon as possible, arrange for the damaged warship to go to the space port for repairs and organize the rotation of injured personnel! Complete the cooling and recycling of the weapon system and shield system as soon as possible!"
"It's been arranged, don't worry, General." The adjutant nodded and said, "It's just that what I'm worried about is that if we continue to consume like this, our losses will become greater and greater. The endurance of the geth warships in each battle is higher than Our side, and we must also consider the physical strength of the control personnel. High-intensity fighting for several hours or even half a day is too much for many people. During this battle, our non-combat attrition reached more than 2,000 people. "
"We can still rely on the spaceport for supplies, while the geth can only rely on their transport ships. This is our only remaining advantage." Henderson said, "We must not lose the ground battlefield, and separate two Jaeger-class ships to enter The planet-synchronous orbit serves as a take-off and landing platform for ground support fighters. If necessary, the use of orbital bombardment to eliminate the geth ground forces cannot be ruled out."
"But in this case, these two battleships will be concentrated attacks by the geth. The three Cheer-class ships that were withdrawn from the surface of the planet have not yet regained their combat capabilities," the adjutant said.
"Then this is what our fleet needs to consider, let's execute it!" Henderson said.
"yes!"
However, at this moment, the radar soldier suddenly screamed, "General!! Geth reinforcements have appeared again!! Including 5 cruisers, 8 destroyers, 8 frigates! And 15 large transport ships!!!"
"This is impossible!!" the adjutant exclaimed. Without waiting for Henderson's order, he immediately connected to the communication at the peripheral monitoring outpost and shouted loudly: "Why are the geth reinforcements still showing up!? Their assembly point Where? Which channel was used? Why didn’t the hyperspace blocker work!?”
"We don't have any reaction here!" The answer from the outpost was still the same.
"Asshole! I will immediately send inspectors to your outpost! Conduct a thorough investigation on you!" the adjutant yelled.
"Sir... we really didn't find anything unusual..." The outpost also felt extremely wronged.
"General! The geth warships have launched an attack on us!! And their transport ships are penetrating toward the planet!!" the radar soldier said loudly.
