Chapter 760: Assault on Cato Neimoidia (1) [2-in-1]

"Hahahaha!" Darth Lilim laughed and said, "I know! I know! Why did you come up with the plan to raid Cato Neimoidia at that time? You..."

She approached Sev'rance Tann and said teasingly: "You... are actually trying to figure it out. You are thinking about what kind of strategy Master likes... Hahahaha! An assault on Cato Nemoidia, this action requires the support of the Trade Federation. If it were based on your own character, you would never propose this strategy! But...you are thinking that Master will be very happy if you propose this strategy."

Silky arms climbed up to Sev'rance Tann's neck, and the orchid-like breath blew in her ears, "...You...know that Master has been trying to completely pull the Trade Federation over..."

Sev'rance Tann pushed Darth Lilim away and said coldly: "What do you think you have seen? As a Senior Military General, I naturally need to think about strategy from an overall perspective. And among the entire Fourth Civilization, the one with the highest position is naturally the Governor. It is normal to think from his perspective."

"Actually... I like you very much." Darth Lilim licked her lips.

"Then make yourself more useful. Until now, you are still just a vase." Sev'rance Tann snorted coldly and continued to give instructions to the other side, "Take off 100 Vulture Droid Starfighters! Take the initiative to attack the Enemy Fleet!"

"Yes!"

The Plague does not have many Starfighters, but Sev'rance Tann does not want to gain Air Superiority because of this. After the 100 Vulture Droid Starfighters took off, they immediately flew straight towards the Republic Fleet.

After their Flagship was destroyed by one blow, the Republic Fleet immediately exploded and rushed towards the Plague.

The Starfighter Group of the 7th Squadron bore the brunt, and Thousands of Starfighters rushed over like locusts. Although there are still numerous Backward Z-95 Headhunter Starfighters inside, such a huge number is still a very terrible threat.

"Avenge General Rivers!!"

"Kill! Charge forward! No matter how powerful it is, it's just a Warship!!'

"Starfighter Squadron follow!!"

"Dax! Full firepower! Fire at will!!" The Battle Communications of the Republic Fleet were filled with all kinds of angry roars, blood debts were paid with blood, teeth for teeth.

But there is anger, revenge, and sadness in Battle Communications, but there is only one thing missing - Tactics.

After the Flagship of the 7th Squadron was destroyed, another Mandator-class Star Dreadnaught immediately took over the command, but the new commander did not know all the previous arrangements of Admiral Rivers. He could only redo all the processes again.

Asking the Intelligence Department for Data on the Plague, sending a signal for help, reorganising the Battle Formation, and arranging a Counterattack Strategy based on the Battle Situation.

But all this takes time!

At this time, the Starfighter Groups and Warships of the 7th Squadron had already rushed forward. After the Plague took off 100 Vulture Droid Starfighters, they immediately rushed towards these Starfighters and opened fire wildly.

In the view of the new Commander, such behavior would have little impact on the Battle Situation. After all, the opponent only has one Battleship. Maybe this Battleship does have Powerful Firepower, but after all, they have enough Battleships. Even if this kind of Hypermatter Railgun can be fired 100 times, it's only one by one, right?

However, the second Intelligence sent by the Intelligence Department directly poured a bucket of ice water on the Commander!

He threw himself in the direction of the Radar Group and shouted loudly: "Enlarge the Enemy Warship's Sensor Image for me immediately!!"

The Radar Soldier immediately operated, and an enlarged image of the Plague appeared on the Screen. Now this Huge Battleship was under attack from top to bottom, and the light of countless Energy Shields flickered on its body.

But that was not what the Commander focused on. He looked at the shape of the Plague's Four Giant Rails that formed the Hypermatter Railgun. Sure enough, the front of the Four Guide Rails opened slightly, forming a trumpet shape!!

"Quick! Notify all Starfighters to disperse! Disperse!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the Plague once again emit a Dazzling Light like a star!

At the same time, 12 Viking Starfighters also launched Ripwave Missiles at several CR-70 Frigates under the cover of the Stealth System! Under the Advanced Fire Control System, the two Five-Unit Missile Launchers on the Viking Starfighter fuselage fired directly, and 120 Ripwave Missiles were fired directly at them!

Anti-Matter Missiles are super fast and have built-in AI Programs to evade Anti-Aircraft Firepower to increase the penetration rate.

Dozens of Ripwave Missiles hit the target, and their Powerful Power directly destroyed the Deflector Shield of the CR-70 Frigate. Then the Armor-Piercing Warheads penetrated the Frigate's Armor, and the Anti-Matter Missiles detonated directly inside the Spacecraft!

Three 120-Meter-Long CR-70 Frigates immediately disintegrated in a Violent Explosion. Such Backward Frigates were completely unable to fight against the New Generation of Starfighters.

But as time passed, the Republic's 7th Squadron finally regained its organization, and the Commander and Staff Officers on the Mandator-class Star Dreadnaught which took over as the Flagship began to function. After sorting out the existing Intelligence, they began to effectively direct the Fleet to redeploy their Battle Formations, and let the Smaller Warships and Starfighter Formations begin to circle around both sides of the Plague.

This finally caught the Plague's weakness!

Although the Plague is densely packed with various Powerful Turrets and Missiles, after all, the most Powerful Hypermatter Railgun can only fire forward. As long as you can avoid the bow of the Plague, you can avoid being destroyed.

Moreover, they can also judge whether the next Shot fired is a Normal Projectile or a Scattered Projectile by whether the current shape of the Hypermatter Railgun is trumpet-shaped.

But Sev'rance Tann didn't care about this at all. She just ordered the Plague to keep moving forward and speed up! Looking at this momentum, she just wanted to rush directly into the Defense Line of the Republic regardless of the situation!

The Starfighters that took off from the Plague were only playing a diversionary role to prevent the Republic's Starfighters from continuously attacking the Engine. After all, the number of these Starfighters was too small.

At this moment, the Largest Warships in the 7th Squadron also opened fire!

Two 8,000-Meter-Long Mandator-class Star Dreadnaughts, one 4,000-Meter-Long Praetor-class Star Battlecruiser, and three 2,500-Meter-Long Procurator-class Star Battlecruisers are the Largest Main Battleships of the 7th Squadron. These Warships are all Backward Warships of the previous era, and their efficiency in launching Offensive Operations is far inferior to that of the Venator-class Star Destroyers. However, these Slow and Extremely Large Warships are Very Powerful, and they are still qualified for Defensive or Blockade Operations.

Countless Turbolasers fell on the Plague Titan Battleship, and the readings of the Deflector Shield dropped sharply.

"General! The Enemy Fleet's Firepower is too fierce, and our Deflector Shield can only last for 10 minutes at most!" The Technicians in the Shield Department eagerly reported to Sev'rance Tann.

Darth Lilim stood aside with his arms folded and said, "Why doesn't the Hypermatter Railgun fire? At least we can destroy the opponent's new Flagship again."

Sev'rance Tann glanced at her, "Use your brain. Now the opponent's Flagship has concentrated most of its Energy onto the Deflector Shield. Our Railgun needs two attacks to destroy it. Instead of this, it's better to wait until the time is right and then destroy it with one shot."

Darth Lilim laughed again, "So, you are waiting for the Trade Federation's Fleet? The War has been going on for so long, but they have not moved. Are you still betting, do you believe in my Master so much?"

"What I believe in is the judgment of the situation and the Battlefield." Sev'rance Tann said.

"Hehehe... I like you like this." Darth Lilim smiled charmingly, "Then, I will naturally help you."

With that said, she turned and left the Bridge.

A moment later, a Purple Viking Hybrid Starfighter took off from the Hangar. This Viking Hybrid Starfighter was slightly larger than the Standard Model, and it was clearly Elite!

While the 7th Squadron began to encircle and suppress the Plague Titan Battleship, the Trade Federation's Defense Fleet outside Cato Neimoidia received instructions not to act rashly for the time being.

At the same time, the Viceroy of the Trade Federation, Nute Gunray, also received another frightening communication - Darth Sidious.

"I heard that the Titan Battleship Plague appeared on Cato Neimoidia..." Darth Sidious said in a distorted voice, "It seems that they are eyeing your property. Nute Gunray."

"Lord Sidious!" Nute Gunray was still full of fear, but for some reason, his fear of Darth Sidious seemed to have lessened a lot since he had a face-to-face conversation with Darth Malthael. "According to the Battle Plan, the Titan Battleship Plague is here to help us relieve the siege."

"Hehehe..." Darth Sidious sneered, and then uttered a few words, "I order you to destroy the Plague."
