The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1592. Battle of Fei Aida (Part 1)

"1 o'clock direction! Fire! Hold on!! Don't let them break into the range of 50 meters!" The clone officer commanded loudly.

boom! boom! Shhhhh~~! ! The blaster rifles and rockets immediately shot in that direction intensively, killing a large group of corpse puppets over there immediately.

After temporarily delaying the progress of the corpse puppet, there was only a whistling sound coming from above the head!

boom! boom! boom! boom! ! A terrifying explosion immediately completely covered the front area! Even with full-coverage helmets, the clone troopers had to hide behind cover to avoid being blown away by the blast from the horrific explosion.

Looking up again, the front has been covered by a sea of ​​flames, many buildings have been blown up, leaving a piece of ruins. The group of corpse puppets that roared and rushed up before no longer existed.

But as every clone trooper knows, this is only the beginning.

These zombie puppets made by ordinary civilians are just used by geth to waste their defenders' ammunition, and at the same time will expose their firepower settings.

Sure enough, just a moment later, I saw countless balls of light appearing in the sky, passing over their frontline positions, and shooting directly towards the rear artillery positions and the firepower points hidden in the buildings!

boom! boom! boom! ! Suddenly, a burst of flames erupted from behind.

The two sides fired at each other crazily, and at the same time, under the cover of a large number of corpse puppets as cannon fodder, the Yamrui corpse puppets who could fly a short distance launched the next wave of attack!

And the Geth body also appeared again, they moved extremely fast, even in the burning ruins, they couldn't stop their footsteps.

At the same time, the clone troopers also discovered that these geths were different from the types they encountered before! In addition to the most common geth, there are also geth equipped with heavy firepower; the elite geth is more than 3 meters tall, covered in red paint, and almost only the firepower of several teams can fight against.

With the appearance of these more advanced and more difficult to fight geth, even the clone soldiers can only retreat steadily!

...

On the space battlefield, Lieutenant Admiral Henderson led the Republic fleet to fight the Geth fleet. And even here, the situation facing the Republic Fleet is also not optimistic!

As we all know, geth warships are fierce and flexible, and they are very difficult enemies. Their combat style tends to be close-range combat, and they don't even set up any formations, rushing directly to attack frantically.

In order to deal with the wolf-like offensive, Lieutenant General Henderson concentrated all the warships into a defensive formation, and a group of fighter jets guarded the periphery of the fleet. Under the cover of a large number of fighter jets, this barely resisted the attack of the Geth.

But the situation is still not optimistic!

Less than half a day after the battle started, the geth sent reinforcements again! More than a dozen warships suddenly appeared without warning, and then joined the battle.

The two sides fought fiercely again for several hours, until the various systems on the battleships of both sides overheated and it was difficult to maintain, they gradually separated and reorganized.

Admiral Henderson's fleet paid the price of the destruction of 3 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 3 Arquitense-class light cruisers, destroying 4 geth cruisers, 1 destroyer, and 7 frigates.

This exchange ratio is pretty ugly for the Galactic Republic, considering that the geth cruisers are only 300 meters long medium-sized battleships.

At the same time, the fighters of the Hesitant Republic Fleet were also very seriously consumed. More than 1,500 fighters were lost in this battle. If this continues, when the fighter formations cannot provide strong support, their warships may be in a state of crisis. more extreme unfavorable situation.

"Where did the Geth's reinforcements come from?! Why is there no response from the monitoring outpost!!" Lieutenant General Henderson asked loudly.

"General! Our hyperspace detection equipment really didn't respond! And we have carried out maintenance, and there is no problem with the equipment. Unless, they did not use hyperspace jumps." During the communication, the commander of the monitoring outpost said.

"Then do you want to tell me that the geth's warships fly by sublight engines?" Lieutenant General Henderson roared.

"General, we really don't know..." the commander of the monitoring outpost said with a sad face.

"In short, I want you to increase your monitoring! Keep an eye on me 24 hours a day! I can no longer face enemy reinforcements again and again without knowing anything!" Lieutenant General Henderson said loudly.

"yes!"

Henderson turned back and said: "As soon as possible, arrange the damaged warship to go to the spaceport for repairs, and organize the rotation of injured personnel! Complete the cooling and recirculation of the weapon system and shield system as soon as possible!"

"It's been arranged, don't worry, general." The adjutant nodded and said, "It's just something I'm worried about. If we continue to consume like this, our losses will increase. The durability of Geth battleships in each battle is higher than Our side, and we also have to consider the physical strength of the controllers. Many people can't stand the high-intensity battle for several hours or even half a day. During this battle, our non-combat attrition number reached more than 2,000 people. "

"We can still rely on the spaceport for supplies, while the Geth can only rely on their transport ships, which is our only remaining advantage." Henderson said, "The ground battlefield must not be lost, and two Jaeger-class ships will enter Planetary synchronous orbit is used as a take-off and landing platform for ground support fighters, and if necessary, the use of orbital bombing to destroy the geth ground forces is not ruled out."

"But in this case, these two battleships will be attacked by the Geth. The three cheerers that have been withdrawn from the surface of the planet have not yet recovered their combat capabilities." The adjutant said.

"Then this is what our fleet needs to consider, let's do it!" Henderson said.

"yes!"

However, at this moment, the radar soldier suddenly screamed, "General!! Geth reinforcements appear again!! Including 5 cruisers, 8 destroyers, 8 frigates! There are also 15 large transport ships!!!"

"This is impossible!!" The adjutant screamed, and before Henderson gave an order, he immediately connected to the communication of the outer monitoring post and shouted: "Why are the Geth reinforcements still appearing!? Their assembly point Where? Which lane was used? Why didn't the hyperspace blocker work!?"

"We have no response here!" The answer from the outpost is still the same.

"Bastard! I will immediately send inspectors to your outpost! Conduct a thorough investigation on you!" the adjutant shouted.

"Sir... We really didn't find anything abnormal..." The outpost also felt extremely wronged.

"General! Geth battleships are attacking us!! And their transport ships are penetrating towards the planet!!" The radar soldier shouted.
