Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

Chapter 667: Trap!

22BBY, August 12 am.

The Offensive and Defensive Battle near Bespin has entered a Fierce Stage. Admiral McGlenn launched an offensive with all his strength, and all the firepower of the Fleet hit the Argonev-class Star Fortress. He knew very well that as long as this powerful and exceptionally solid Star Fortress was destroyed, he was equivalent to winning this Battle!

However, even though his attack on the Argonev-class Star Fortress had lasted all night, this Huge Star Fortress still stood majestically. During the battle, the Shield of the Star Fortress was broken 4 times, but every time it resisted the Bombardment of the Republic Fleet with its Heavy Armor, and recirculated, raising the Shield.

Although the Shield Capacitors are constantly damaged, making the total capacity of the Shield lower and lower, the Republic's Fleet is also suffering losses under continuous blows.

Their Biggest Victory was blowing up one corner of the Star Fortress and its Heavy Beam Cannon into pieces. This area is about 900 Meters in size, but even so, this Star Fortress based on the Factory Floating City of Shefa City has survived until now! This even surprised the Vashan Engineers who were in charge of the Star Fortress Project.

Now the Main Fleet of the 19th Army of the Galactic Republic has fully occupied the advantage on the Battlefield. Even if Igor Zavalov has exhausted all tricks, he is still powerless to reverse the huge difference in strength.

Of the 80 Venator-class Star Destroyers and 20 Arquitens-class Light Cruisers, there are still 59 Venator-class Star Destroyers and 11 Arquitens-class Light Cruisers. Although they are all damaged to varying degrees, such strength is still not what the Fourth Civilization's current Fleet can match.

Seeing the development of the Battle Situation so far, Admiral McGlenn finally made a judgment, and now, he is about to take the Fruits of Victory into his pocket!

"Order the Garrison of Kinyen to set off immediately, pass through tNoe'ha'on, and threaten the Moddell Sector! Try to contain the Enemy's ... Fleet A on Annaj!" Admiral McGlenn said frowning at the Fleet Number. The Number of the Enemy Fleet has been confirmed, and the one on Annaj is indeed the Number of Fleet A.

So, it is Fleet B that is going to Christophsis? Admiral McGlenn has not yet understood when Dawn switched Defenses, and what is the significance of this switch.

But now he can't take care of so much. The only thing that can threaten him is Dawn's Fleet A which is currently on Annaj. This Fleet currently has a total of about 50 to 60 Capital Warships, which can indeed pose enough threats to his Fleet.

"It's time to Reap the Victory?" Admiral McGlenn has not closed his eyes for two whole days. His eyes are bloodshot, staring at what is close at hand. He is riddled with holes, and flames and thick clouds are spraying everywhere. The Argonev-class Star Fortress was in smoke, as he muttered to himself.

He picked up a cup of coffee with trembling hands and took a sip. Although Dawn is his Worst Enemy, he still loves some Special Products from Dawn, such as this kind of Coffee that refreshes his mind when he is sleepy.

"Maybe, after winning this Victory, I should retire." Admiral McGlenn sighed.

However, Fate is like this, capricious.

No, this time, it's not Fate, but...

It's a Trap!

A Staff Officer ran over quickly, his face was pale, and his voice was trembling, "General... General... the Supreme Strategic Command has confirmed that the Separatist Reinforcements from Christophsis... are not Dawn's Fleet A! No!!"

With a crisp click, the Coffee Cup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces of glass shards, and the Black Coffee flowing all over the floor gave off a strong aroma. However, at this moment, no one is going to take care of this cup of drink that is widely sold in the market. At this moment, on the entire Bridge, in the highest Command Center of the Republic Fleet, there is a gloomy atmosphere.

"Fleet A is on Annaj, and we have reconfirmed the designation. So, is it their Fleet B that is going to Christophsis?" Another Staff Officer asked with the last glimmer of hope.

"The same is not true, that Fleet did not go from the direction of Dawn. Now the Republic Intelligence Headquarters is looking for the source, but all clues have disappeared without a trace within Hutt Space. But at least it is certain that the Mysterious Fleet is From Hutt space..."

"Then tell me where the other half of the Main Fleet of Dawn is!!" Admiral McGlenn interrupted the words of the Staff Officer, roaring like a lion.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one could give an answer.

"Retreat! Retreat immediately!" Admiral McGlenn immediately made a decision.

"But... this Star Fortress..." The Staff Officer looked at the crumbling Argonev-class Star Fortress reluctantly.

"I said... retreat! Let the Navigation Computer calculate the Best Route for retreat immediately! I want to know when I can enter the Hyperspace Lane if I turn around now!" Admiral McGlenn said loudly.

The strength of Dawn is very powerful. With a total fleet of about 150 Capital Warships, the power of this Planet ranks first in the entire Galaxy. Leaving aside those Inner Rim Planets whose Industrial Capabilities can be called terrifying, at least able to rank among the best in the Inner Rim.

This is why even after the Fleet of the 19th Army was supplemented with 110 Venator-class Star Destroyers, neither Sulamar nor McGlenn took the initiative to launch an attack.

This attack on Bespin must be confirmed when half of the Fleet of Dawn is not at home. Otherwise, in the Main Battle, the supply is convenient, the morale is high, the reinforcements are fast, and the advantages are accumulated one by one. The side that takes the initiative to attack will inevitably pay a bigger price.

For example, the Marza-class Heavy Missile Cruiser, if it were not for the continuous replenishment of Missiles, perhaps would have run out of Ammunition in such a Fleet battle that lasted for more than a day.

There is no need to worry about Fleet A which is only assembled on the planet Anji. After all, they just bumped into the Iron Plate of Kinyen's Defense Line. No matter how cautious they are, they will bleed all over the place. But the Fleet B, which has been missing for a long time, is the real killing move!

"General! The Calculation is complete! Now the entire Fleet has escaped from the Gravitational Circle of Bespin and to enter Hyperspace Lane...Need..." The navigator swallowed, glanced at the results on the screen worriedly, and lowered his voice, "Need 5 hours..."

"5 hours? Are you sure? According to normal circumstances, we can enter Hyperspace in less than an hour!" The Staff Officer became anxious when he heard this, and shouted loudly, "Recalculate for me! If you can't figure it out, replace it with someone else!!"

"There is no problem with the calculation. The Hyperspace Navigation is disturbed, and the source of the disturbance is... this Star Fortress..." The Navigator was sweating profusely.

"What's in the Star Fortress? Is there a Hyperspace Blocker?" Admiral McGlenn asked.

"The Hyperspace Blocker is not used in this way, and it cannot be set within the range of the Gravitational Circle. This is an Unknown Technology that can interfere with the Fleet entering Hyperspace. If we want to synchronize the Hyperspace Lane and the Hyperdrive of the Warships, the time has increased by more than 5 times!" said the Navigator.

"Could it be that this battle was a trap from the very beginning!" The Staff Officer's face turned from white to green, and he almost suffocated.

"General! Strong Hyperspace Fluctuations have been detected! A Large-Scale Fleet is approaching!" The Radar Officers suddenly shouted hysterically.
