Chapter 308 The Battle Situation Takes a Sudden Turn

The wreckage of the Revival-class Star Destroyer slowly fell through the atmosphere of Pava, like a giant meteor.

As it descended, the dense oxygen reacted violently with the metal on the surface of the debris, instantly igniting a raging fire.

The flames raged like demons, engulfing the entire warship in a sea of ​​fire.

Chunks of steel, molten at high temperatures, fell from the sky like meteorites, crashing onto the surface of Pawa.

Each impact triggered a massive explosion and shockwave, creating an apocalyptic scene.

At this thrilling moment, General Grievous stood at the control panel of the planetary shield generator, his eyes glued to the screen.

After seeing that most of the warships had safely entered the atmosphere, he issued the order without hesitation: "Activate the planetary shield generator!"

This flash of inspiration from Grievous was crucial for him. If he had destroyed the planetary shield generator as he had done in the past, his fleet would have suffered a devastating blow after the battle, regardless of the outcome.

He himself will become the first general in the history of the Galactic Empire to suffer a crushing defeat.

Fortunately, he made the right choice.

The planetary shield generator was activated rapidly on his command, but due to the previous damage, the shield's energy was no longer sufficient to completely cover the entire planet.

Greaves immediately realized this and decisively ordered the fleet to assemble in three specific areas.

These three areas are precisely where the planetary shield cannot cover.

At the same time, the Republic's Navy also discovered these three obvious gaps.

They knew this was their only chance to inflict heavy damage on the Galactic Empire's fleet.

Therefore, the Republic Navy quickly adjusted its tactics, concentrated its firepower, and prepared to launch a fierce attack on these three areas.

However, frustratingly, the size of these three gaps is very limited.

The smallest gap could only accommodate five Jagdpanzer-class cruisers at the same time, while the largest gap could only allow thirteen Jagdpanzer-class cruisers to enter Pava Star at the same time. This situation put the Republic Navy commanders in a dilemma.

They knew full well that adopting a "piecemeal" tactic was definitely not a wise choice.

This tactic will only gradually weaken their fleet, ultimately leading to defeat.

However, with the Galactic Empire's support potentially arriving at any moment, they had little time to waste.

Time has become a luxury for the Republic's Navy.

Every second of delay could mean more losses and failures. And it seems that even luck isn't on their side.

Despite facing such a difficult situation, Grievous gained some new insights into the Force's premonition.

Through his perception of the Force, he gradually understood why Palpatine and Kirsaëns would ultimately decide the new fate of the galaxy, and perhaps only the Force could explain the reasons behind it.

However, time was of the essence, and the Republic's naval commanders could no longer hesitate.

After a painful struggle, they gritted their teeth and made a bold decision.

They decided to send all their V-wing fighters through the narrow gap and into Pawa.

These agile fighters will disrupt the Galactic Empire's naval formations at breakneck speed, creating opportunities for subsequent operations.

Immediately afterwards, the cheerleader-class landing ships surged into Pava Star like a torrent without hesitation.

These landing ships carry a legion of clones, who will support the Republic Navy's offensive by diverting the attention of the Galactic Empire's navy.

Following this, the Jagdpanzer-class and Imperial-class cruisers quickly sprang into action, working in close coordination to provide strong cover for the Hope-class cruisers, ensuring their safe entry into Pava.

The objective of this operation was very clear: to engage in a thrilling fleet battle with the Galactic Empire's navy within the atmosphere of Pava.

This deployment by the Republic Navy was indeed unexpected by the Galactic Empire fleet, as they were suddenly faced with such a fierce attack before they had even completed their assembly.

A massive swarm of V-wing fighters descended like locusts, severely hindering the Galactic Empire's fleet assembly.

Faced with this situation, the Galactic Empire fleet hastily dispatched TIE interceptors to respond.

However, due to the vast numerical disparity, these TIE interceptors were quickly overwhelmed by the sea of ​​V-wing fighters and were unable to play their due role.

In local battles, the number of V-wing fighters has far exceeded that of TIE interceptors and drones, forming an absolute advantage.

The anti-aircraft firepower of the few Fuxing-class Star Destroyers proved inadequate against such a large number of enemy aircraft.

They're everywhere!

"Then fire everywhere!"

However, despite the crew's best efforts to fight back, the number of V-wing fighters was simply too great. They kept breaking through the air defense network and causing serious damage to the warship.

"We've already lost half of our anti-aircraft turrets!"

There are too many of them!

In this fierce battle, both the Fuxing-class S-type high-speed star destroyer and the Fuxing-class C-type carrier star destroyer suffered far more damage than other warships due to their reduced armor.

However, because these specialized Revival-class Star Destroyers were so large, they did not suffer fatal damage.

V-wing fighters alone are still insufficient to destroy the Galactic Empire's capital ships under the powerful anti-aircraft firepower of the Revival-class Star Destroyers and Axis Gun Frigates.

In order to gain air superiority to the greatest extent and intercept the enemy's drones, all warships of the Republic Navy were equipped with V-wing fighters during this deployment.

However, this decision has now become a blunder in the current situation.

However, the Republic Navy had no time to think about these issues at this point.

Because a large number of cheerleader-class landing ships successfully penetrated the gaps in the star system's shield, like a swarm of wasps, they dropped squads of clone soldiers into every corner of Pawa.

The clone legions of these four army groups quickly deployed, well-trained and well-equipped, sweeping in like an iron torrent.

Their objective was clear—to launch a fierce attack on the surviving orbital cannons on Pava and to cause as much trouble as possible for the Galactic Empire.

Meanwhile, after a chaotic aerial fleet battle, the Galactic Empire's ground forces were also in dire straits.

They kept sending Griffith messages about the attack, requesting support and instructions.

Grievous was not entirely unprepared for the sudden deterioration of the battle situation, but he never expected the Galactic Republic's commander to be so decisive, which truly made him feel somewhat troubled.

At this moment, Griffiths' gaze slowly fell on the lightsaber he was holding tightly in his hand. The blade shimmered with a faint light, as if echoing the Force fluctuations within him.

The Force flowed slowly across the lightsaber like a clear spring, and this wonderful feeling gradually calmed his mind.

However, no one could know what he was really thinking at that moment.

Beneath this seemingly calm surface, a turbulent storm may be brewing.

Commands were issued from his hand like lightning, quickly reaching every corner of the Galactic Empire's navy and army.

Upon receiving the order, the troops immediately sprang into action, adjusting their strategic deployment, reorganizing their defensive lines, and preparing for the impending fierce battle.
