1400. Dirkson Meat Grinder (4)

Hearing Tarkin's words, the adjutant suddenly realized, "So that's the case, then Saw Gerrera is a scapegoat? And the reason why you dismissed Saw Gerrera's proposal and kept the Royal Guard is for us to kill him as a scapegoat later. , can you get more support?"

Wilhuff Tarkin said with a teachable expression, "I'm glad you finally understood my intentions, very good."

"It's still the governor who has a far-sighted vision." The adjutant hurriedly flattered, "At that time, as long as we say a word, those royal guards will immediately send Saw Gerrera's head up... Hahahaha."

But Tarkin immediately looked serious, and said: "Now that you know, put away all your illusions! Capture the Dirksen satellite as soon as possible! Let this battle come to an end as soon as possible! We need to reorganize our offensive and concentrate our forces on The place where the breakthrough has been achieved, and then form enough depth within the range of the city shield!"

"yes!"

The battle on the Dirksen satellite is still going on. Under the continuous bombing of the fleet and army of the Galactic Republic, the city-level shields of the Iron City have almost reached their limit. The shields in many places began to appear due to insufficient charging resulting gap. absurd

With the most extreme and precise assistance of the navigation robot, the fighter pilots of the Galactic Republic rushed into the city while the city shield was flashing, and in the last few seconds before they were shot down, put their fighters on the ground. Launch everything that can be launched!

The city of steel's air defense firepower began to suffer losses. Once there was a loss, gaps appeared in the dense fire nets. As the situation ebbs and flows, the Galactic Republic's air forces have more room to move.

Two of the ten huge orbital defense cannons around the city have been captured under the continuous attack of the Army of the Galactic Republic. The battle robot also detonated the huge energy of the orbital defense cannons installed in advance before the battle to the end. The bomb on the core died with the Army of the Republic.

After the Galactic Republic Army experienced an initial full-scale siege that took nearly half a day, it also adjusted according to the offensive situation launched by dozens of landing points.

Under the meticulous command of Wilhof-Tarkin, the Army of the Republic began to abandon the landing points that suffered heavy losses due to heavy artillery attacks by the separatists and made poor progress, and then focused on launching attacks in the remaining 9 directions.

These 9 directions are also the directions where the Army of the Galactic Republic was finally able to break into the shield range after paying a lot of casualties.

However, in order to achieve such a result, more than 700,000 Republic soldiers have been buried here. absurd

On the Onderon Star Battlefield, countless corpses are almost piled up like a mountain. For these corpses, the separatists are basically combat robots, so it doesn't matter, but the Republic has to use various methods to dispose of these corpses as much as possible.

Since the war started, too many people have died.

Some of the corpses were disposed of on the spot on the planet Dexon, and were thrown into the lava pits and volcanoes that were bombed out of the previous orbital bombing as garbage and burned directly. There are also some wounded who died on the planet Onderon. Usually, several cremation pits are set up on the outskirts of the city for unified treatment.

Afterwards, the continuous offensive of the Galactic Republic slowed down a bit, and then reorganized its troops, and then launched an overwhelming offensive again!

However, this time, the situation suddenly changed!

The separatist army, which had been passively defending, suddenly showed its terrifying fangs!

Scorpio Tank! absurd

More than 400 Scorpion tanks, under the cover of more than 100 M-9 Wolverine anti-aircraft assault vehicles, drove out of the underground garage of the City of Steel, and then went straight to the rear of the Republic Army!

At this moment, the army of the Galactic Republic is concentrating its offensive in nine directions, but this also means that there is a gap that cannot be controlled between these places.

And the scorpion tank group launched an interspersed attack from these gaps!

It should be said that Wilhof Tarkin's command was correct. After all, the City of Steel has a radius of more than 500 kilometers. It is a super-giant city, and it is also a fortress city. Even if the Galactic Republic has an army of 7 million, it is impossible to continue to launch a full-scale attack on this front with a circumference of one or two thousand kilometers. Concentrating forces to carry out assaults in certain directions is a completely correct choice.

However, Governor Tarkin, who wanted to end the battle as soon as possible, was blinded by the passive stance of separatism. He focused all his attention on how to launch an attack, but he did not expect that General Kalani was holding A counter force.

Scorpio Tank!

Since the analysis of this tank was completed and entered the fourth civilization army equipment sequence, it quickly became the favorite equipment of army generals. Not only because of the excellent performance of the Scorpio tank, but also because the production cost is low enough and the production process is not difficult. absurd

This means that ~www.mtlnovel.com~ even an ordinary industrial planet will have enough capacity to mass-produce Scorpio tanks.

Originally, army generals did not need to care about production, but the low cost of Scorpion tanks directly led to these generals being able to easily obtain a large enough tank group.

Who doesn't love such a tank?

The same is true for the Dirkson Satellite. After receiving the information that the Republic was about to invade, in addition to evacuating the original Behemoth-class battlecruiser production line, another important task was to convert part of the production line to produce Scorpion tanks.

In just a few months, this group of factories that manufacture kilometer-class battleships has produced hundreds of Scorpion tanks.

And now, these tanks hit Wilhuff Tarkin directly in the face!

More than 400 Scorpio tanks were divided into several directions and resolutely interspersed. In order to complete such complex tactical maneuvers, the crew of these Scorpio tanks were all the Army of the Fourth Civilization, not just B-1 battle robots! absurd

The Scorpion tank group directly cut off the supply line between several of the Republic Army troops and the rear landing field, forcing these Republic troops to retreat and defend, and even retreated from the shield range they had finally entered.

After that, these Scorpion tanks directly attacked the artillery positions set up by the Republic more than ten kilometers away!

After the exasperated Wilhof-Tarkin concentrated fighter formations bombarded these Scorpion tanks indiscriminately, and finally forced the Scorpion tank group to retreat, the several artillery positions they set up were in a mess.

The precious SPHT self-propelled turbo laser cannon was destroyed by this assault, and a total of 5 vehicles were destroyed!

You must know that this kind of expensive weapon, whose cost is comparable to that of a battleship, only has double digits in the entire galaxy!
