The Wandering Planet
Chapter 518? The Arrival of Reinforcements
The imperial forces on the ground are gradually tightening the encirclement net, planning to annihilate the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Team hiding in the jungle in one fell swoop.
Although Stanton led the team to launch a wave of breakout charges and killed one or two AT-AT walkers, it was still a drop in the bucket for the overall battlefield situation.
The imperial army had a steady stream of reinforcements and armored troops to support it, but the casualties of the soldiers of the expeditionary force continued to increase, and their ammunition was gradually running out.
Especially after Stanton's death, Lieutenant Colonel Yang Rui took over the command. He was faced with a grim situation. The troops were short of guns and ammunition, and the wounded were left unattended. The enemy attacked again, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
At this moment, a figure fell from the sky and fell directly into the imperial army.
There was a flash of blue sword light, and the neck of an AT-AT imperial walker snapped.
The huge head containing the cockpit, two heavy-duty laser cannons, and two blaster rapid-fire cannons slid down from the flat section like a huge falling rock, killing a few hapless Imperial stormtroopers below.
This figure is exactly Qiao Li who jumped from the tower castle, relying on the jet flight device of the symbiont armor to glide all the way here, and join up with the besieged Wandering Earth Expeditionary Team.
On the other side, 2B and Genji also committed suicide, disintegrated the encirclement net of the Imperial Army from the two wings respectively, cooperated with the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force to fight a wave of central blossoms, and successfully repelled the attack of the Imperial Army again.
Qiao Li brandished his lightsaber to break out of the siege, and finally successfully reunited with the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Team.
However, when he saw that the person in charge was not the original Colonel Stanton, he still couldn't help asking:
Where's Stanton?
He sacrificed. Yang Rui replied slightly sadly, and then saluted Qiao Lu with fixed eyes:
Lieutenant Colonel Yang Rui of the Orbital Airborne Force of the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force is taking over the command, please instruct!
Yeah.
Qiao Lv took a look at the remaining people. After half the battle, the remaining people were still wounded. It was already a miracle that they could continue to fight.
At this time, the commotion above caught their attention. It was the fleet of the Rebel Alliance attacking Scarif's planetary shield force field.
Although the sound cannot come in,
But the ripples on the shield that were hit by the laser cannon were clearly visible on the ground.
A large number of X-wing fighters of the Rebel Alliance fought fiercely with the TIE fighters of the Empire. The red and green laser beams were intertwined in the dark space, making people dazzled. It was also a magnificent sight that could be seen on the ground.
Is that our reinforcement? Yang Rui asked curiously. As far as he knew, the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force should not be equipped with such an X-wing fighter.
Compared with single-shot laser laser cannons, the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force prefers extremely fast-firing aviation cannons and densely fired cluster missiles, and will not use this kind of seemingly petty laser weapons.
Qiao Li nodded and said, That's right, our reinforcements have arrived.
Above Scarif's orbit, X-wing fighters entangled with the Empire-class Star Destroyer like annoying flies. For the Rebel Alliance whose industrial strength is not strong, these X-wing fighters are the backbone of their fleet.
They are famous for a pair of X-shaped wings, and four identical laser cannons are distributed on each wingtip. They also have proton torpedoes against large targets, but the warheads are relatively expensive and generally not easy to use.
The high maneuverability and deflector shield of the X-wing fighter make it also have good survivability when facing the Imperial Star Destroyer.
The shipboard weapons of the Empire-class Star Destroyer, such as heavy-duty supercharged laser cannons and turbolaser turrets, always have a sense of cannon hitting mosquitoes when facing these X-wing fighters attacking like a swarm of bees. Fight back with point defense laser cannons.
However, the firepower of the X-wing fighter is not enough to fear for the Empire-class Star Destroyer. Even if it is a proton torpedo, it needs to hit the vital point to cause damage. It can only be said that each other cannot help each other.
In contrast, the Empire's TIE fighter is faster and more agile. This dual ion engine fighter can catch up with the X-wing fighter in terms of maneuverability, but the lack of deflector shields makes it more fragile, and an inadvertent scratch may destroy it. A TIE fighter.
Its only advantage is that it is extremely cheap, and it can be worth less than a few imperial stormtroopers, so it always swarms out like locusts when it fights, flooding the entire battlefield in an instant.
The main outcome of the Rebel Alliance's battle was to shoot down these TIE fighters, because it is not easy to take down an Imperial Star Destroyer.
Apart from the X-wing fighter jets, the Rebel Alliance's fleet only consisted of small ships such as light frigates, light cruisers, and security escorts.
The smallest is no more than a few hundred meters, and the largest flagship heavy cruiser, the Ladus, is only about 3,000 meters long. It is the only warship that can compete with the Empire-class Star Destroyer.
However, there are far more than one Imperial Star Destroyer, and follow-up reinforcements continue to arrive. The Rebel Alliance has only one Ladus, so no matter how you look at it, it doesn't have much chance of winning.
For this reason, Admiral Ladus of the Rebel Alliance decided to do his best to find a way to break the shield, and find a way to get the design of the Death Star.
It's a pity that their firepower is really weak. Even with all their strength, there is still no sign of being able to break through the force field of the planet's shield.
As more and more Imperial Star Destroyers arrive, the disadvantage of the Rebel Fleet will only become greater and greater. So far they have not been able to destroy any Imperial Star Destroyer. How can one imagine being composed of Star Destroyers? The scene surrounded by the imperial fleet?
As long as the firepower density reaches a certain level, the maneuverability of the X-wing fighter is meaningless.
Just when they were at a loss, the several Imperial Star Destroyers in front of them were suddenly pierced by the flames from a distance, and the armor, which was impenetrable even by proton torpedoes, was pierced through and torn like a piece of white paper in an instant. Make a big hole.
After these flames penetrated the Imperial Star Destroyer, they still fell on Scarif's planetary shield force field. It was twisted and deformed by the beating, almost to pieces.
Admiral Radus of the Rebel Alliance was stunned by this scene. What could destroy several Imperial Star Destroyers so lightly, and then almost break Scarif's planetary shield force field?
If it wasn't for the attack on the Imperial Star Destroyer, which caused the power to be dispersed to several points, this round of bombardment would be enough to destroy Scarif's planetary shield!
The Rebel Alliance definitely does not have such a powerful weapon. What exactly turned the situation around in one fell swoop?
