After establishing the Landing Position, the Fourth Civilization Army began a Large-Scale Battle Operation.
More than a dozen Battle Groups set off on M650 Mastodon Armored Personnel Carriers. Under the cover of Siege Tanks, Vulture Hoverbikes and M9B4 Wolverine SPAAA Anti-Aircraft Artillery, they began to attack, aiming directly at the Hidden Spaceports that had been discovered and Starfighter Landing Platforms.
In the Universe, three Lucrehulk-class Battleships have entered a near-Earth synchronous orbit of Terminus and began to send all the Soldiers and Equipment in their huge cabins to the Planet's Battlefield.
In the sky, the C-9979 Landing Craft was still rising and falling. After the 10,000-person Fourth Civilization Army and Equipment landed, they began to transport the Droid Army down.
Naturally, the Galactic Republic will not sit still and wait for death. The Air Force on Terminus is attacking everywhere, constantly switching targets. They are either conducting Air Strikes on the Fourth Civilization Army or intercepting the C-9979 Landing Craft transporting Supplies. In addition to the Z-95 Headhunter Starfighters secretly deployed by the Republic, some Bounty Hunters and Mercenaries have also been hired by the Republic to join the battle.
After a slight repair, the Republic Fleet also began its second attack.
This time their target is clear, the three Lucrehulk-class Battleships!
The attack and defense were even more fierce. The Republic Fleet desperately tried to break through the defense, and Matt Horner also commanded his Warships to defend tightly. Some Warships even used their Hull as Shields to block the Lucrehulk-class Battleships.
Warships are also arriving from the rear of the Fourth Civilization, but most of them are Small Warships that are more convenient for passing through Hyperspace, and according to Matt Horner's instructions, the reinforcements coming are all Garda-class Flak Destroyers.
A total of 10 Garda-class Flak Destroyers arrived before, and another 10 now, which greatly eased the pressure on the Fourth Civilization Fleet facing the Republic's Starfighters.
Coupled with the fact that the Starfighters of Darth Malthael and the two Dark Jedi fired unparalleled on the battlefield, the Republic's Starfighter Group suffered serious losses.
On this battlefield, there are currently no Jedi Knights in the Galactic Republic participating in the war. Darth Malthael and the others are simply a dimensionality reduction strike! The only thing that can restrain them from causing more killings is the ammunition stock of Elite Viking Hybrid Starfighters.
This Space Battle lasted for more than ten hours, and both sides suffered losses, but relatively speaking, the Republic Fleet suffered greater losses.
The offensive and defensive battle continued until the 10 Marza-class Heavy Missile Cruisers of the Fourth Civilization finally passed through Hyperspace and joined the battle.
The Republic Fleet suffered heavy losses and could only retreat to one of the Moons of Terminus to defend and receive supplies from the Planet.
After Matt Horner obtained the Cutting-Edge Warships, he immediately launched a counterattack, but after discovering that the Republic Fleet's will to fight was still tenacious, he also retreated to continue covering the Ground Troops for Landing Operations.
Because the reinforcements came from the Marza-class Heavy Missile Cruisers. Although this type of Warship had Heavy Firepower, it also relied heavily on Logistical Supplies. If it was not used sparingly, it might be possible to throw out all the Missiles in one battle.
At the same time, supplies from the rear of the Fourth Civilization began to arrive continuously, and several Hoshiko-class Robotics Cruisers also arrived on the battlefield to provide repairs for Damaged Warships.
Both sides suffered heavy losses in the battle in space. The Fourth Civilization Fleet also did not pursue it fiercely due to supply difficulties, in case it completely lost the cover of the space battlefield after running out of ammunition and food, so the game between the two sides began to focus on the Ground Battle.
Eight hours after the war began, five Acclamator-class Assault Ships of the 18th Army of the Galactic Republic arrived on the battlefield and launched a landing from another direction on the Planet.
At this time, the Army of the Fourth Civilization has begun to advance, with the Battle Droids as the Main Frontal Force, the Goliath Mechs as the Air Defense Force, and the Warhound Mechs as the Frontal Assault Force. Under the cover of the Powerful Long-Range Artillery of the Siege Tanks, they began to advance towards Fermos City, the Capital City of Terminus.
The Rapid Assault Force formed by the Fourth Civilization Army, consisting of M650 Mastodon Armored Personnel Carriers, M9B4 Wolverine SPAAA Anti-Aircraft Artillery, Vulture Hoverbikes, and a small number of T-280 SCVs for field repairs and support, attacked everywhere and destroyed 17 Hidden Spaceports and Supply Bases of the Republic.
Fourteen hours after the war began, 150 kilometers south of Fermos City, 20 LAAT/I Gunships of the Galactic Republic launched an Air Attack on the Fourth Civilization Army position under the Air Cover of Z-95 Headhunter Starfighters.
The Fourth Civilization's Army, dominated by Battle Droids, repelled the Republic's Starfighters with the help of Goliath Mechs, and the Armies of both sides officially exchanged fire.
At this time, in the Field Command Center of Major General Xiao Guanghua, Commander-In-Chief of the Army of the Fourth Civilization on Terminus, two Elite Viking Hybrid Starfighters landed, and two people wearing Black Cloaks and exuding deathly aura walked out.
Lifting their hoods, they are a Female Bothan and a Middle-Aged Human. They are the Dark Jedi of Darth Malthael, former Jedi Masters, Glynn-Beti and Aidan Bok.
"The Lord has sent us here to assist you in your battle, General Xiao," Glynn-Beti said calmly.
"Let's talk about the current battle situation and see what we can do." Aidan Bok added on the side.
Xiao Guanghua frowned, not liking the aura emanating from these two people, but still replied: "At present, our Army is advancing smoothly. 20,000 Soldiers and 40,000 Battle Droid have already landed, and more Soldiers, Weapons and Equipment are also being transported and are expected to be available for landing this evening."
As he spoke, he came to the Holographic Map, pointed to a hill in front of him and said: "This is a hill in the south of Fermos City. It stretches for hundreds of kilometers and has 9 highlands above 1,000 meters. With our Army's current mobility, it is very It is difficult to get around, so we are preparing to force a breakthrough. However, we have just been attacked by Republic Starfighters, which means that their Army is coming, and the situation has changed."
"As for our Rapid Assault Force, they are conducting a detour to the north of Fermos City. The detour operation should last for about a day, but now the Republic's Air Force has increased the intensity of its Air Strikes, plus their Acclamator-class Assault Ships have entered the atmosphere, and the situation is not optimistic."
Glynn-Beti nodded and said: "In this case, we will fly our Starfighters to assist the roundabout Troops and strive to cut off the Republic Army's backup. At present, we do not feel that Jedi Knights are participating in this battle. This is our opportunity. As for the Space Battlefield, the Lord has his own plans."
"I understand. Then everything will be carried out according to the Battle Plan." Xiao Guanghua gave a Military Salute to the two of them.
The two Dark Jedi nodded, walked out, got into their Elite Viking Hybrid Starfighters, started the Thrusters and quickly disappeared from the sky.
