Chapter 284 Raid on Coruscant
At this moment, the orbit around Coruscant was unusually deserted, with only a few dozen Jaeger-class cruisers silently carrying out their patrol missions.
On the ground, some cheerleader-class landing ships were busily loading clone legions, and everything appeared calm and orderly.
However, this seemingly peaceful situation was completely shattered by a sudden attack.
The Independent System Confederation's raiding fleet arrived silently like a ghost. More than ten massive Resurrection-class star destroyers, leading numerous Confederation warships, appeared in the Republic fleet's sight without warning.
This sudden turn of events caught the Republic's fleet completely off guard; they didn't even have time to send out any warning signals.
Even more shockingly, an astonishing number of Vulture fighters swarmed out of those Revival-class Star Destroyers and Confederate warships like locusts.
Among this overwhelming array of aircraft, the most eye-catching are the Skywalker's advanced TIE fighters.
Like a sharp sword, it charged ahead, leading the other fighters like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey, heading straight for the Jagdpanzer-class cruisers that had been urgently mobilized.
In an instant, bursts of energy beams rained down, slamming into the shields of the Jagdpanzer-class cruiser and triggering a series of earth-shattering explosions.
The shield flickered incessantly under the fierce attack, as if it might collapse at any moment.
"Open the hangar and get the planes off! Quickly!" Faced with this sudden attack, the captains of the Juggernaut-class cruisers acted decisively and immediately issued the order.
However, their reaction was still a little slow, because the Confederate commander had anticipated this move and quickly ordered the fleet to concentrate its firepower and directly bombard the hangars of the Jagdpanzer-class cruisers.
Amidst the chaos and panic, the Republic's captains frantically opened the hangar doors.
However, their hasty actions soon had serious consequences.
The Confederate warships' guns mercilessly struck the hangar of the Jagdpanzer-class cruiser, instantly triggering a massive explosion.
In this explosion, a large number of V-wing fighter jets were destroyed, and their pilots were also reduced to fragments in the raging flames.
Those few lucky V-wing fighters that managed to take off also met their doom.
They encountered a fierce attack from Confederate Vulture fighters in the air and were quickly destroyed.
At this point, no Republic fighter jets could be seen in the high-altitude orbit above Coruscant.
The Confederate raiding fleet, with its superior firepower, launched a relentless attack on the dozens of Jagdpanzer-class cruisers.
Cruisers were destroyed one after another under the bombardment, some even blown to pieces, with debris flying everywhere.
Under Coruscant's gravitational pull, these fragments fell toward the republic's capital planet.
On the ground, a cheerleader-class landing ship that had just taken off collided with a piece of debris from a falling jester-class cruiser.
The impact caused the landing ship to lose its balance, and it plummeted into the distance like a kite with a broken string.
After crashing into a tall building, the cheering landing craft finally managed to regain its balance and made an emergency landing at a starport.
When the last Jagdpanzer-class cruiser in high orbit exploded like fireworks under the concentrated fire of the Confederate fleet, the shocking explosion instantly illuminated the entire space, like a giant meteor streaking across the sky.
However, this was not a dazzling fireworks display, but a brutal life-or-death struggle.
The cheering landing ship, which had been scrambled into the air, appeared so vulnerable and helpless in the face of the Confederate fleet's fierce bombardment.
Their meager upper guns were unable to effectively fire at the Confederate warships.
However, Coruscant was not without its own strength. As the location of the Jedi Temple, it was home to a large number of Jedi Knights.
Their existence is like a ray of dawn in the darkness, bringing people a glimmer of hope.
Soon, a large number of fighter jets took off from Coruscant.
Among them, nearly a hundred Jedi fighter jets were particularly eye-catching.
Their appearance made the commanders of the Confederate fleet uneasy.
Palpatine's face turned extremely grim. He knew that if the Jedi Knights failed and the Confederate fleet gained control of the universe, the situation would become extremely dire.
The Confederate fleet could easily order their warships to launch indiscriminate orbital bombardment of Coruscant. At that point, even if he were the Sith Lord, he would likely not survive such a perilous situation.
Fortunately, the Confederate warships did not blockade the entire planet.
This means that as long as there are still aircraft capable of taking off, Palpatine still has a chance to escape Coruscant, the planet that is about to be destroyed.
"How did things get to this point?" Palpatine stared at the Jedi Knights taking off to meet the enemy, pondering to himself.
He never imagined that he would find himself in such a desperate situation, with no cards left to play.
The Independent Galaxy Confederation has been quietly brought under the complete control of a female Sith Lord, who has also placed this force, which was supported by Palpatine and his deceased master, in direct opposition to Palpatine.
Palpatine's power was gradually being eroded by that Sith apprentice, and he felt his situation becoming increasingly difficult.
Now, his only hope is that the Galactic Republic can defeat its enemies and reverse this unfavorable situation.
However, a question that puzzled Palpatine lingered in his mind: "Why does she know so much? Does she possess Sithic secrets that I don't know about?"
This question haunted him like a ghost, leaving him pondering deeply but unable to find an answer.
Meanwhile, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, master and apprentice, once again fought side by side.
However, unlike in the past, the responsibility they bear now is exceptionally heavy, making the relaxed atmosphere between master and apprentice completely gone.
In the midst of fierce battle, a cheering landing ship exploded in mid-air in front of the fighter jets, instantly bursting into a dazzling light and a huge shockwave.
Debris from the warship rained down on the two men, carrying scorching heat and powerful impact, as if to tear everything apart.
As the signals of friendly warships disappeared one by one, the clone commander's heart sank. He knew that the Cheerleader-class landing ships could no longer hold out until they entered Coruscant's high-altitude orbit.
At this critical moment, he made a decisive decision and issued an order without hesitation, instructing the climbing warships to immediately change course to provide cover for the fighter jets.
These fighter jets that took off were now facing an extremely dangerous charge. They not only had to withstand the fierce firepower of the enemy fleet, but also had to travel a long distance to get within range of their own fighter jets.
In this process, a large number of fighter jets may be destroyed at any moment, making it undoubtedly a battle with no chance of survival.
However, the Jedi Knights and pilots had no other choice.
The once mighty Galactic Republic is now reduced to its last remaining fighting force on Coruscant.
With no support in sight, they could only shoulder the banner of the Republic alone, risking their lives to defend this once glorious country.
