The Battle of Christophsis (8)

"Investigate the origin of this Fleet immediately!" Admiral Wullf Yularen said sharply.

An Intelligence Officer on the Battleship immediately began to look through the records and then raised his head and said: "There is no news, all the Border Posts between us and the Separatists have not detected such a Large-Scale Hyperspace Navigation Record, and there are no internal lines everywhere for feedback on which Fleet has recently left."

"Take back all Starfighters, start Resupply immediately, and the Pilots take turns to rest. Notify the Warships, the Deflector Shields will recycle, and the Main Guns will remain charged." Wullf Yularen pondered for a moment, and issued an order, "Let us report the Separatist Information about the Unknown Fleet to the Supreme Strategic Command."

"Calculate the coming direction of the Enemy Warships." Obi-Wan Kenobi suddenly remembered something and asked.

"It should be...from Tatooine." The Radar Soldier hesitated for a moment and replied.

"Tatooine? Didn't the Hutts close all the Hyperspace Lanes? Even after we rescued Gardulla, they were only willing to open it to us for a month." Wullf Yularen said, a little surprised.

"Let's leave these matters to Diplomacy. We are just dealing with the enemy in front of us." Obi-Wan Kenobi said in a deep voice, connected to his Apprentice's Transceiver and said, "Anakin! Enemy reinforcements have been sent! They may have a conspiracy, so don't act rashly."

Afterwards, under the command of Admiral Wullf Yularen, the Republic Fleet began to recover Battle Formation. After a series of fierce battles before, they still have 18 Venator-class Star Destroyers, 12 Arquitens-class Light Cruisers, more than 7,600 Starfighters, and more than 400 Bombers.

At this moment, Admiral Trench's Fleet, huddled in the shadow of the Moon next to Christophsis, only has 14 Hiigaran-class Battlecruisers, 3 Munificent-class Frigates, 3 Recusant-class Light Destroyers, 5 Lucrehulk-class Battleships and a Providence-class Destroyer as his Flagship.

As for the Vulture Droid Starfighters, there is no more than 1 left, and the only remaining ones are more than 100, which have all entered the atmosphere of Christophsis to cover the Ground Troops in operations.

Compared with the Fleet after the war and the follow-up Support Fleet, Admiral Trench's Fleet has less than half of its strength, which can be described as extremely miserable.

A moment later, a White Light flickered violently, and 20 Large Warships broke away from the Hyperspace Lane and suddenly appeared in space.

Among these Warships, 10 are short and thick, with a small bow and a large stern, which looks like a raised character; while the other 10 Warships are larger and longer, with a flat bow, which looks like a T. These Battleships are even larger than the Venator-class!

"The scan is complete. 10 Warships are 940 Meters long, and the other 10 Warships are 1,300 Meters long! The Models are unknown!" the Radar Soldier said loudly.

Admiral Wullf Yularen looked at the images sent back by the sensor, and frowned, "What type of Warship are these? Immediately notify the Intelligence Department for comparison! Order the Warships to disperse into Battle Formation G and open fire! "

The Eight Dual DBY-827 Heavy Turbolaser Turrets on the Venator-class Star Destroyers have already been ready to fire, firing in an instant! The Red Blaster Beams poured down like raindrops.

The opponent was obviously prepared for a long time ago, and began to adjust their Formation to become denser, and also fired back.

"The Formation of the Enemy Warships is adjusted, it is a Dense Shelling Formation!" The Staff Officer said loudly.

"It seems that they don't have too many Starfighters, so they can only rely on Dense Formations to cover each other and maximize the power of the Battleship's Capital Guns." Wullf Yularen frowned, "In this case, inform the Warships, get ready to take off Starfighters!"

"The Separatist Fleet has also changed, and they are beginning to move closer to the reinforcements!"

"Those are Warships in heavily damaged condition, they are not a threat! Concentrate our forces to deal with the Separatist Reinforcements." Wullf Yularen commanded the battle calmly, "The first wave of Starfighters, set off to test!"

The Venator-class Star Destroyers at the back of the Battle Formation have deployed the Huge Hangar Platform at the bow, and Thousands of V-19 Torrent Starfighters have taken off one after another. With 4 Starfighters per group, they flew straight like locusts.

At the same time, the firepower of the opponent's 20 Battleships also fell on the Republic Fleet, and strong ripples flickered on the Deflector Shields of the Battleships hit by the Laser and Artillery Fire.

"Report the damage immediately! Calculate the power of the opponent's Capital Guns!" Wullf Yularen gave an order.

Obi-Wan Kenobi said from the side: "General Yularen, I will leave Command to you, and I will also lead a Starfighter Squadron to attack. I always have some bad premonitions. It seems that these 20 Warships are not simple. ."

After speaking, he quickly ran towards the Hangar.

Along the way, you can see rows of Clone Troopers wearing Black Pilot Uniforms marching in the direction of the Hangar. Now as more and more Clone Troopers join the battle, many Starfighter Pilots have also been replaced by Clone Pilots. They are more skilled and calmer in situations. Almost every one of them can be said to be an Ace Pilot.

Obi-Wan Kenobi came to the Hangar, greeted the Captain of the Squadron he was directly under, jumped on the Delta-7 Starfighter and took off from the Hangar, flying straight out like lightning.

At the same time, an Intelligence Agent ran up to Admiral Wullf Yularen and said, "General, the Intelligence Department has completed the comparison. The name of the short and thick Battleship should be the Marza-class Heavy Cruiser. This latest new type of Warship was produced by Dawn but the information on the Larger Warship with a length of 1,300 Meters is unknown!"

"Marza-class..." Wullf Yularen repeated the name, "These Warships have been firing since just now, but their firepower is very sparse... Looking at this shape, is it a Transport Ship? But why? Also known as a Heavy Cruiser?"

After thinking about it, he decided to take a look first. The first batch of 1,100 Starfighters had already taken off, so let's test the opponent's situation now.

"The Enemy Warships are starting to slow down!"

"They stopped!"

"There is a strong Energy Response at the front of the Enemy's Large Unknown Warships! There is an obvious phenomenon of Energy Storage!" The Radar Soldiers kept reporting.

Wullf Yularen's heart tightened, and he said loudly: "Order the Warships to increase the output of the front Deflector Shield!"

"The Starfighter group has 140 seconds to contact the Enemy!"

"The Enemy Marza-class Heavy Cruisers have changed, wait a minute..."

"It's a Missile Launcher!" The Radar Soldier yelled loudly after zooming in on the sensor image, "A large number of Missile Launchers! According to visual inspection, there are... 140 Missile Launchers on each Marza-class Heavy Cruiser of different sizes and specifications! This is... this, It's a Guided Missile Cruiser!!"

Wullf Yularen only felt a gust of cold water pouring from head to toe, and his intuition as a General told him... things were not good!

It is no longer possible to give him time to think on the battlefield...

The 1,100 Starfighters of the Republic Fleet are constantly approaching this emerging Separatist Fleet.

At this moment, Dense Missiles were fired from the densely packed Missile Launchers on the 10 Marza-class Heavy Cruisers!

In just one minute, 10 Marza-class Heavy Cruisers fired Thousands of Missiles!

These Missiles did not aim at any target but spread out directly, flew directly into the Airspace, and then...

Detonate!!
