1522. Battle of Ennako (final)

General Malcolm Granger is on his way!

The Guerrilla Fleet of the Fourth Civilization set off from Planet Ze-Hess and headed straight for Planet Pax—the place where the guerrilla fleet annihilated the 17th Army's interception fleet before.

There are still a large number of salvage ships and garbage ships at the scene of the last battle. They spared no effort to salvage and scan every fragment. If they want to find some clues, they can tell the Ministry of Intelligence of the Republic that the battle happened at that time. What, and what new technology exactly did the separatists use.

Rear Admiral Granger led the guerrilla fleet to attack fiercely! Seeing a battleship jumping over, those garbage ships and fishing boats scattered one after another. But don't forget, among the guerrilla fleets, there are disaster-class battlecruisers!

The escort fleet of the Galactic Republic here is not large. There are only 3 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and more than a dozen small and medium-sized warships. Dealing with such an escort fleet is very simple. Not enough firepower to do damage to them.

In fact, if the Jaeger-class still had a way to fight against the Cole-class battlecruisers and the Higra-class battlecruisers before, then when the Disaster-class and Hell's Angel-class came out successively, the Jaeger-class has undoubtedly become A generational gap began to exist.

The most intuitive judgment is - the Jerger class has only 8 double-linked double XX-9 heavy turbolaser guns, and the layout that is not suitable for salvo, it shows that the firepower of this type of warship is far from meeting the requirements . And the hangars with huge space are becoming more and more powerless as the fourth civilization has more and more means of countering fighter jets.

After dispersing the escort fleet, Rear Admiral Granger looked cold and issued an order to attack those civilian salvage ships! In his opinion, although these salvage ships are all civilian ships, they are undoubtedly working for the military, so such people cannot be regarded as civilians in battle.

Attacking those civilian ships with a particle light spear is like attacking an ordinary civilian car with a 120mm caliber armor-piercing projectile. You can say that he is perverted, or that he is a waste, but there is no doubt that if this shot goes on, it will be torn apart, and there will be no scum left.

The ultra-long range of the particle light spear made these civilian salvage ships have no chance to escape. Most of them were quickly destroyed, and the rest finally activated their hyperspace engines and escaped before the disaster-class battlecruisers had time to take care of them one by one.

Then, Malcolm Granger started his own plan.

He first drove the fleet to the vicinity of the largest piece of wreckage, then released some small detection ships, and planted bombs on some of the wreckage, which detonated after a while.

In fact, these fragments and wrecks are randomly selected and have no meaning, but in the eyes of the intelligence department of the Galactic Republic, this is the guerrilla fleet destroying corpses and eradicating traces! Blow up some valuable wreckage!

The fleet of the 17th Army staying on the planet Kira responded immediately. They sent 15 main warships and 60 small and medium-sized warships into the Parkes galaxy to drive out the guerrilla fleet.

But Rear Admiral Granger didn't pay attention to the coming Republic fleet at all. He was just looking at his own time and the data from the border hyperspace outpost.

He led the fleet and fought and retreated, and then when the circulation of the transport fleet in the Kira galaxy was about to reach the next peak, he acted suddenly, activated the hyperspace engine and flew towards the Kira galaxy instead!

Although the action of the guerrilla fleet was very sudden, it was not very unexpected. After all, they had a history of raiding the Kira galaxy. The Kira galaxy has a very complete defense, and the defense fleet will immediately go to meet it.

But General Granger acted again. He and the defense fleet went around in circles, using the thick-skinned Hells Angel-class battlecruiser to repeatedly attack the formation of the defense fleet, and then used the particle light spear equipped by the disaster-class battlecruiser to shoot precisely. The firepower of the 5 Disaster-class ships is very powerful, and often a single salvo can destroy a Jaeger-class battlecruiser.

Afterwards, he didn't get too entangled with the defensive fleet, and often just left with one hit, circling around. Then when the hyperspace channel happened to be very busy, he made a sudden attack and scattered one of the transport fleets in the Kira galaxy against the artillery fire of the defense fleet!

After that, the guerrilla fleet activated the hyperspace engine at a very precise time and place, and continued to go deep, all the way to the planet Kalinda!

And when the defense fleet of the Kira galaxy wanted to pursue it, they found that the hyperspace navigation computer of their battleship sent a warning, telling them that the hyperspace channel had reached saturation, and hyperspace fluctuations had already occurred in the channel, and they needed to wait until the fluctuation subsided To continue sailing!

Therefore, the Republic Defense Fleet could only watch the guerrilla fleet go away, but he could only wait here dryly! After all, everyone is working part-time, so there is no need to risk falling into hyperspace fluctuations and forcefully jump.

The planet Kalinda is between the planet Naboo and the planet Kira. There is not much strategic value here, it is just a cargo transfer station. It is also because of this that, compared to the planets Kira and Naboo that have complete defense facilities in this galaxy, there are no defense facilities on the planet Kalinda, not even an orbital defense system.

In fact, this is very simple. Even when you play "Three Kingdoms", the second-tier cities behind the fortress cities that hoard heavy troops on the front line must have no defense and focus on logistics. After all, no one is rich enough to arm every planet to the teeth, right?

According to Ling Liang's precise calculations, General Malcolm Granger successfully ran to the planet Kalinda, and blocked the Republic's defense fleet, making it impossible to chase after him in a short time.

What's even more exciting is that there are a large number of transport ships near the planet Kalinda at the moment, loading and unloading cargo or preparing to transfer to the planet Naboo!

The guerrilla fleet rushed to the planet Kalinda, exactly like a wolf that got into the sheep pen!

Crazy fire Crazy shooting! A large number of transport ships were destroyed! The remaining transport ships could only flee in all directions. However, at this moment, the hyperspace channel returning to the Kira galaxy has begun to generate hyperspace fluctuations, so more transport ships are rushing towards the planet Naboo. A small number of transport ships ventured back to the Kira galaxy, but further aggravated the hyperspace fluctuations, preventing the reinforcements from the planet Kira from arriving in time.

At this time, due to the destruction of the guerrilla fleet, the Ennaco channel, which was not very smooth, was even more congested! The Republic had to suspend the navigation of all transport ships in the Ennaco galaxy, and was preparing to dispatch the fleet to destroy the separatist guerrilla fleet on the planet Kalinda immediately after the fluctuations in the hyperspace channel subsided, and then resumed navigation.

But such a move has put the main fleet of the 17th Army, which is fighting fiercely on the Ennako planet, into a greater predicament!

When the battle between the two fleets entered the second day, the main fleet of the 17th Army continued to overwhelm its forces. Now more than three quarters of the warships have entered the planet Ennako from the planet Naboo.

Moreover, the third Commander-class dreadnought ship has also arrived at the planetary battlefield of Ennako at this moment, and continues to engage in battle with the Titan battleship Xuanwu.

At the same time, Ling Liang, the governor of the Fourth Civilization Saiswena Star Region, also continued to increase troops to the planet Ennaco, and now the number of fourth civilization capital ships on the periphery of the planet Ennako has reached as many as 60!

Moreover, the Martha-class missile heavy cruiser and the Doomsday Battlefield-class battlecruiser also appeared on the battlefield.

And after entering the Fourth Civilization Navy and joining the battlefield, the doomsday battlefield-class battlecruiser has become a loathsome existence of the warships of the Republic!

The doomsday battlefield-class battlecruisers are constantly neutralizing the energy systems of the Republic battleships, causing the energy reserves of their battleships to bottom out again and again, even to the point where they cannot fire when their shields are turned on, and the shields have to be lowered once they fire!

So far, what is displayed in front of the main fleet of the 17th Army of the Republic is a complete complex fleet of the Fourth Civilization.

The Hells Angel-class battlecruiser is always at the forefront as a meat shield, relying on its extremely thick armor and the main guns installed on both sides to stalk it.

The Dunov-class battlecruisers are constantly replenishing energy and shields for their own battleships, and the Doomsday Battleship-class battlecruisers are constantly absorbing and neutralizing the energy reserves of the opponent's battleships, disrupting their operational deployment.

Cole-class battlecruisers provide medium-range fire support with hypermatter railguns, and can also provide powerful anti-aircraft firepower. The Sowa-class aircraft carrier takes off and lands fighter jets for mobile reinforcements. After the configuration is complete, the fighter formations of the Fourth Civilization are mainly for cover, and rarely carry out the task of attacking the ship.

And the disaster-class battlecruiser is constantly bombarding the Republic fleet with the most powerful particle light spear at the furthest distance!

Of course, the core is the Ankron class Titan battleship Xuanwu! With the existence of the Xuanwu, the group shield and the destruction matrix provide an almost invincible field! In this area, the fleet of the Fourth Civilization is almost invincible!

Coupled with the support of the Lantian-class command cruiser, the Xingzi-class maintenance drone carrier, the Javelin-class missile frigate, and the supplement of the Brown Bear-class heavy destroyer and the Apocalypse-class light cruiser.

With a variety of battleships, the fleet of the Fourth Civilization is almost invulnerable!

On the other hand, the battleships of the Galactic Republic - the Jaeger-class, can do everything; the Knight-class, mainly artillery; the Arquitense-class, can do everything; , can do everything; DP-20 gunboat, mainly air defense.

Therefore, except for the knight class specializing in artillery warfare and the DP-20 specializing in air defense, the other warships are all comprehensive multi-functional warships. Like the Aquatens-class light cruiser, it is actually equipped with marines!

If the current fleet of the Fourth Civilization is 1+1+1+1+1\u003e10, then the fleet of the Galactic Republic is at best 1+1+1+1+1=5, purely because of the increase in strength brought about by the increase in number .

Now in this battle on planet Ennaco, the fleet of the Fourth Civilization relied on its absolutely inferior force, but it was always beating the main fleet of the 17th Army of the Republic.

At present, the Fourth Civilization Fleet has 60 capital ships and less than 150 small and medium warships, while the main fleet of the 17th Army of the Republic already has more than 170 capital ships and more than 300 A small and medium warship.

But under such a comparison of strength, it is the 17th Army that is struggling!

The fleets of both sides stopped and stopped outside the planet Ennako, constantly consuming. Ling Liang's strategy is naturally to keep delaying time, and at first Admiral Kourney of the 17th Army's idea was also to delay time, waiting for more warships of his own to gradually arrive through the narrow hyperspace channel, and then form a larger Force superiority.

Therefore, after confirming that he was deceived by Lott-Dude, Admiral Kourney's combat strategy was also based on solid defense. After he was ready to accumulate enough strength, he struck out with a heavy fist and severely damaged the Xuanwu in one fell swoop.

During this period of time, in addition to delaying time, he used his numerical advantage to continue destroying the trade union spaceports outside the Ennaco galaxy and increase the difficulty of replenishing the opponent's fleet—since you are fighting at home, I can't help it Stop you from having more supplies, then I will kill your spaceport, so that your supplies can't be easily sent to the battleship, this is enough!

As more and more warships of the Republic entered the Ennaco galaxy, Admiral Kourney's mood became better and better.

Although he doesn't have much hope for the final victory in the battle, but now, he at least has a chance to attack with all his strength and fight fairly!

But he didn't understand, for the confrontation between the two armies, is it fair? This is the point that needs to be abandoned the most! Ling Liang never thought of having a fair contest with his main fleet of the 17th Army!

When the news came that the guerrilla fleet actually fled to the planet Kalinda, destroyed a large number of transport ships, and forced the fleet headquarters of the planet Kira to suspend the navigation of the Ennaco Channel, Admiral Kourney was stunned. .

The Ennaco waterway is a very simple hyperspace waterway. There is almost only one route, and there are no tributaries. It goes straight. So once such a channel is cut off, it means that the supply will be completely cut off!

This is why the 17th Army did not set the fleet assembly point on the planet Naboo-even though the planet Naboo has very important political significance, they still chose the planet Kira as their fleet assembly point. Because the Ennaco waterway where the planet Naboo is located is not suitable for the deployment of large-scale fleets.

Now, Admiral Kourney is stuck on the planet Ennako just like this, and the supplies stored on the planet Naboo have already been consumed for seven days when his fleet stayed on the planet Naboo and faced off with the Titan battleship Xuanwu. Seven or eight! The offensive he launched immediately relied more on the logistics supplies delivered by the planet Kira!

He can only hope that the rear can open up the channel as soon as possible and deliver the supplies.

But Ling Liang obviously wouldn't give him this chance!

Following her order, the Fourth Civilization Fleet headed by Xuanwu finally launched an active attack!
