The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

Chapter 1649 Yago-Durr Gun Battle (4)

1649, Jago-Toure Gun Battle (4)

In Gideon Tarkin's fleet, almost all the warships aimed their turbolaser cannons at the No. The door XX-9 heavy turbolaser continued to bombard.

So in such a situation, facing the sudden attack of the swarm drones, the entire Republic fleet was dumbfounded, and was unable to take any effective actions at all!

The Knight-class still has 40 point defense turrets, and the Jaeger-class battleship, which entrusts all the air defense of its own ship to the carrier-based aircraft, is even more blind at this time!

Facing the attack of the swarm drones, the Republic Fleet fell into chaos almost immediately! You must know that these drones all flew out of the No. B interstellar base, and it can almost be said that they rushed into the array of the Republic Fleet as soon as they flew!

With the frenzied bombing of more than 20,000 drones, each Republic warship can be taken care of by more than 100 drones on average! Such a saturation attack is simply not something they can handle.

And at the same time, under the command of Matt Horner, the Duchy of Dawn's fleet also launched a resolute counterattack!

No matter how badly these battleships were suppressed by the Republic fleet before, they don't care about them now. Even if the battleships are severely damaged, they have to rush up and bombard them with the main artillery that is still in good condition.

Even the 20 disaster-class battlecruisers no longer evaded the Republic's high-speed assault fleet at this moment, stopped again from the evasive state, and the particle light spears were outputting at full capacity!

The fighter jets guarding the Republic battleship were almost completely emptied in just 20 minutes! These fighter jets were not well connected in the electromagnetic radiation storm, and it was difficult to get the guidance of the flight control management of the mothership, and in the end they could only fly around and fight on their own.

After the initial wave of raids, more than 5,000 of the swarm drones rushed towards the Republic's high-speed assault fleet that was fighting the disaster-class battlecruiser formation!

In the face of the attack of the swarm drones, the performance of the Arquitense-class light cruisers and Karak-class light cruisers of the high-speed assault fleet was even more unbearable. Even the Karak-class light cruiser, known for its high speed, cannot give full play to its advantages in the face of the extremely fast and flexible swarm drones.

The high-speed assault turned into a high-speed escape. After entangled with the swarm drones for a while, these light cruisers found that they had no chance of winning at all, so they quickly turned around and fled in the direction of their main fleet.

The confident offensive of the Republic Fleet was completely disrupted in this way.

This sudden change shocked the commander of the Republic Fleet, Gideon Tarkin. He rushed to the radar and said loudly: "This is impossible!! Impossible!! Even our fighter jets can't fight, why are these little Drones can?!"

"I don't know! Strong electromagnetic interference still exists! Even the communications we send to other warships are being interfered!" said the communications soldier.

"Two-thirds of the size of those micro-drones are on the engine, and they are equipped with extremely powerful plasma rays! At first glance, the drones are completely dependent on remote control. How can they be so flexible in such an environment? What?!" Gideon Tarkin was so angry that he even wanted to accuse the Separatists of cheating!

"General! The high-speed assault fleet is turning around! The power generation inquiry has not been answered yet!"

"There are still 107 warships that have not responded via communication! Communication system interference has increased!"

"General! Not good! The power of the electromagnetic radiation storm is increasing! Our normal communication is also affected!"

"Fighter formation confirmed unable to take off!"

Gideon Tarkin looked at the densely packed swarm of drones on the holographic star map that had been constantly disturbed due to interference, and his face was extremely ugly.

Because even now that the electromagnetic radiation storm is raging, those swarm drones are still as fast and flexible as ever, and they are still in the same step, and they cooperate seamlessly.

"Retreat! Retreat immediately! Preserve your strength!" Gideon Tarkin decisively issued an order.

"General, I can't confirm whether the news has been conveyed! The interference is too strong now!" the adjutant said with sweat profusely.

"This ship turns around directly! Fire a thermal flare and notify all warships to retreat!" Gideon Tarkin said.

Five flares of different colors were fired from the flagship of the Republic Fleet, the Commander II-class dreadnought. The signal bomb burned rapidly, exuding extremely high temperature and brightness, like three small stars.

At the same time, the Commander II-class dreadnought didn't care about it, and started to turn around, no longer interested in fighting, and retreated towards the rear.

Because of communication interference, only some of the warships of the Republic that noticed these signals also began to retreat, but more warships were still engaging blindly, not realizing that their flagship had already taken the lead.

...

At this time, Matt Horner was still giving orders on the flagship of the Duchy of Dawn fleet, on the Consul-class aircraft carrier, "Fire the signal flare and tell all ships to attack with all their strength! Kill the Republic warships as much as possible!"

"General, the communication interference has increased, and it is no longer possible to communicate normally." The communication soldier turned around and said.

Only then did Matt Horner nod his head, let out a long breath of turbid air with relief, and said to himself, "Okay... this has bought us a little more time... next, just wait This time the planet will change orbit..."

He stretched out his hand to the communicator in front of him, thinking about the communication interference again, so he shook his head, turned around and walked towards a cabin behind the bridge.

Taking a heavily guarded elevator and passing through several security doors, Matt Horner came to a sealed cabin.

Through the spherical glass door of this cabin, I suddenly saw a woman standing in it—a pale-skinned Zabrak woman!

Once an apprentice of Master Shak Ti, Maris Bruder.

During the War on Kamino, Maris Bruder fell to the dark side under the influence of the Dream Sisters and joined the Fourth Civilization. Later she was assigned to Darth Lilim's subordinates, but since Darth Lilim went to the north, Maris Bruder disappeared.

Who would have known that she was actually here!

And look at her body, connected with countless data cables, even the back of her head was opened, and hundreds of long needles emitting light pierced directly into her brain!

"Start the self-examination and confirm the impact of the electromagnetic radiation storm on you." Matt Horner said lightly.

The Zabrak woman in front of him has become like this, and Matt Horner still has no sympathy. Because in his opinion, this person is not a good thing in the first place, and he came to join him hastily, so it is difficult to have any loyalty.

Now it is connected to the Consul-class aircraft carrier and becomes the command center of the swarm drones, which is also a good use of waste!
