The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

762、I'm determined to win

"There are still hidden Republic fighters on Terminus?" Matt Horner frowned, "This is a trap, the Republic has long been prepared for our actions, and has already won over Terminus , just to set up such a game.”

"Then what should we do? Retreat?" the combat staff officer asked with cold sweat on his face.

"Our combat analysis has made it clear that now is the best opportunity to occupy the planet Terminus!" Matt Horner's eyes were extremely firm, and he said firmly: "Don't pay attention to Terminus The goal on the planet! Our greatest enemy is always the Republic Fleet! Leave the affairs of the planet to our ground forces."

"yes!"

At this time, an alarm came from the sensor again, and 20 Arquitects-class light cruisers of the Galactic Republic left the hyperspace channel and joined the battle. And it is deeply disturbing that the alarm of hyperspace fluctuations has not stopped.

Matt Horner took a deep breath, stared at the holographic star map, and murmured: "I hope our army can withstand this test."

The Fourth Civilization Fleet kept retreating, broke away from the gravitational circle of planet Terminus, formed a combat formation, and recalled all the fighters and bombers going to the planet to bomb, preparing to meet the enemy and start the fleet battle.

The army of the Galactic Republic obviously has a clear plan. The Z-95 headhunter fighter jets hidden on the planet Terminus did not rush out of the atmosphere to fight the Fourth Civilization Fleet.

In fact, this is a very wise choice. As a fighter jet of the last era, the Z-95 Headhunter has proved in countless battles that it is not an opponent of the Ghost Fighter at all. Therefore, it is the correct tactic to guard the planet's atmosphere.

But the right play for them meant another failed plan for Matt Horner.

Then, all that's left is to fight head-on.

Matt Horner's gaze became extremely sharp, and he waved his hand suddenly and shouted: "Cole-class battlecruisers, ships No. 11 to No. 20, recharge the supermatter electromagnetic gun!"

"yes!!"

"Calculate the distance, preview the target, and fire!!" Matt Horner shouted again.

The salvo of the main guns of the 10 Cole-class battlecruisers opened the curtain for the frontal battle of the fleet.

The Fleet of the Galactic Republic keeps advancing, and after entering the optimal range of 1 light minute, it is fully fired, and a large number of fighter jets are launched to prepare to attack the Fleet of the Fourth Civilization.

Turbolaser cannons and heavy X-rays were intertwined, and thousands of fighter jets from both sides were engaged in a fierce battle in the air.

As in previous battles, the Galactic Republic had an absolute advantage in the number of fighters, while the fighters of the Fourth Civilization were entangled with it by means of cloaking devices.

Moreover, the new generation fighter jets of both sides are also put into actual combat in this battle.

Galactic Republic ARC-170 fighter jets are installed, and more than 300 fighters are equipped in this fleet!

And the Viking fighter plane of the Fourth Civilization was also put into mass production, and 100 participated in this battle-and, this is also a stealth fighter plane.

The warships of the Galactic Republic are still rushing to the battlefield one after another. Half an hour later, 20 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers also joined the battle!

What makes people desperate is that although the hyperspace fluctuations have weakened a lot, they are still going on!

Matt Horner formed all the battleships into a defensive formation, and the Cole-class battlecruiser's supermatter electromagnetic guns did not continue to fire after two salvos, and chose to save ammunition.

The fleets of the two sides continued to exchange fire like this.

However, because there was a large gap in the time when the Republic fleet came, they had not yet formed a strong concentrated firepower, and they did not continue to charge forward, but chose to stop at a distance of 0.8 light minutes and assemble the fleet on the spot.

Follow-up warships are still coming. After five 2,000-meter-class Invincible-class battlecruisers, 15 Karak-class light cruisers, and more than 40 Corellian DP-20 gunboats arrived on the battlefield, no more warships rushed to the battlefield. Come.

Like the Fourth Civilization, this fleet is also one of the few mobile fleets that the 18th Army of the Republic can free up when it is attacked from two directions.

It's not that these warships don't want to arrive at the same time, it's mainly because these warships have huge differences in performance, age and size, and the levels of hyperspace engines they are equipped with are also completely different. So even if they start at the same time, they can only arrive at the battlefield successively in this way.

But even so, this fleet has already formed a numerical advantage over the fleet of the Fourth Civilization.

After the battleships were assembled, the Republic Fleet took back the 2,000 fighter jets that had taken off before, and then took off 2,000 new fighter jets again.

At the same time, all warships launched an assault in a wedge formation!

Matt Horner commanded the fleet very carefully, defending desperately. The Cole-class battlecruisers protected the Sowa-class aircraft carriers in the rear, and the Sowa-class aircraft carriers began to retreat, as far as possible from the engagement zone.

In fact, according to the various scenarios in the combat plan, the possibility of the Galactic Republic's early intervention is not unconsidered, but in this case, the judgment of the Supreme Command is to retreat immediately.

But Matt Horner chose to continue fighting after thinking about it.

First, the number of the Republic's fleet is not as large as they imagined.

The second...fourth civilization...needs too much space...

The hyperspace channel is almost something that the fourth civilization dreams of.

The Bespin planet allowed the Fourth Civilization to get the first planet on the main hyperspace channel, but there was only one direction, and it was also blocked by the 18th Army of the Republic.

What they want now is another direction of attack.

This is like Jingzhou is to Liu Bei. If you lose Jingzhou, you will lose the world... Because only Liu Bei in Yizhou is left, and there is only one direction left.

The same is true for the Fourth Civilization. Occupying the planet Terminus can gain more strategic offensive directions, and then defeat the 18th Army, completely opening up the passive strategic situation.

Now... can't retreat!

Matt Horner gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

"General! The Supreme Command sent an order, asking us to withdraw from the battlefield immediately according to the combat plan." The combat staff came over and took out an authorization message from the Supreme Command.

Matt Horner took a deep breath, was silent for a while, and then said: "Call back. Judging from the situation on the front line, our army still has the possibility of capturing the planet Terminus, please continue the offensive plan! Terminus , our Fourth Civilization is determined to win!! I am a natural disaster!"

The eyes of the combat staff officer also became firmer, he stood at attention and saluted fiercely, and said loudly: "I am a natural disaster!"

Matt Horner waved his hand violently, and said loudly: "Electrically order all ships! Fight to the death, I am a natural disaster!!"
