Chapter 640: The Battle of Christopher Sith (7)
638. The Battle of Christopher Sith (7)
As soon as Anakin heard Ahsoka call himself 'Skywalker', Anakin Furious, "Hey! No matter what, at least for the time being, I am still your master. Are you so disrespectful to the master? Little devil!"
Ahsoka looked unconvinced, but still bowed her head and gave in. : "Okay, I understand, God... Oh, Master."
"Okay, at least now I am going to carry out a raid mission. You can follow Rex first and learn how to do it. Survive the battlefield!" He immediately left Ahsoka to Rex and walked aside to organize the new reinforcements and prepare for his raid.
Yes, a raid, this was what he just thought of. In short, Anakin would never stop his attack.
He and Rex led the 'Torrent' company (Torrent), the most elite of the 501st Legion, to launch a raid from a commercial center full of buildings, destroying an independent system Confederate tank that was advancing towards the front line. force. This attack blocked an attack originally planned by the Robot Legion, leaving the frontline robot troops without enough heavy units, and the attack stalled again.
After that, the clone forces began to establish a solid air defense position, and as more and more V-19 fighters came down from space to support, the Confederacy's Vulture robot fighters became fewer and fewer, almost unable to Then provide air cover.
So the clone forces established several new artillery positions, and the AV-7 artillery began to exert extremely powerful power. Under the intensive bombing, the robot troops of the Confederacy of Independent Systems were blown to pieces. Fallen, unable to organize a decent offensive at all.
Seeing this situation, Worm-Lotham understood that the matter had come to an end and there was nothing he could do about it, so he once again led his troops to retreat to the position in the eastern suburbs.
The Galactic Republic finally regained control with great difficulty, and Anakin did not relax and immediately began to prepare for a counterattack. But it will be more difficult to counterattack. After all, the robot army still has one million troops, and in the counterattack, don't count on the Christopher Sith army - they have no guts to rush out from behind the bunker.
Worm-Lotham once again asked for help from the Enterprise Alliance, but this time, all he got in exchange was a hysterical curse from Parcel Argent. In Parcel Argent's view, it was precisely because of Worm-Lotham's incompetence that the millions of troops were trapped in the quagmire of war on the planet Christophsis and unable to extricate themselves.
Worm-Lotham also had troubles that he couldn't express. He told Parcel-Argent that without air superiority, millions of robots would be useless. Now the remaining more than a hundred Vulture robot fighters can't even cover his command center, so how can they still fight?
Parcell Argent had no choice but to throw his anger at Admiral Trench, but Admiral Trench also told him that the existing fleet could only do this, and he could not do more. Well, if you want to blame, blame the Hutts, they were the ones who let the Republic fleet come over.
On the battlefield, more is stronger. This is an eternal truth. Unless the level gap between the commanders on both sides is too large, it is almost impossible to defeat more with less.
At least the current level of the Republic's commanders, Admiral Wolf Yularen and Obi-Wan Kenobi, is not that big of a gap with Trench. In fact, with the existing military strength, it is indeed difficult for anyone to say that anyone can do better than General Trench.
Although it was very difficult for Admiral Trench to hold on under the offensive of the Republic fleet, he was still able to hold on. He concentrated the fleet near the satellite of the planet Christophsis and used the satellite's gravitational field to prevent the Republic's fighter jets from going too deep. After all, with the engine power of the V-19 Torrent light fighter, once captured by the satellite's gravity, it would be Quite dangerous.
Fortunately, the Republic has not yet equipped the ARC-170 heavy fighter at this time. If it is the latter, then Admiral Trench will have only one way to retreat.
After disrupting the opponent's fighter force, the powerful ship-to-ship firepower of the Hiigaran-class battlecruisers, Generosity-class frigates, and Defiant-class light destroyers began to be unleashed. Admiral Wolf-Yularen was worried that the fleet would suffer unnecessary losses, so he did not continue the pursuit. He only blocked Trench's fleet and sent fighter units down into the atmosphere of the planet Christophsis to support ground operations.
In this situation, Parcel Argent finally despaired. He did not dare to ask Count Dooku for help, so he ran to the Technical Alliance Foreman Walter Tambor and the Trade Alliance Governor Newt. - Gunray. But now the former is attacking the planet Rynos, and the latter is preparing to rebel against the planet Rodia, and they don't want to pay attention to him at all.
Then go to the co-chairman of the Interstellar Banking Association, San Hill, and the director of the Fourth Group, Gross Shelbia. They both said that their fleets were being restrained by the main fleet of the Galactic Republic on the planet Mequito, and they did not dare to do so. Act rashly.
"If reinforcements are not sent, the planet Christophsis will be completely doomed! The Croydonians will return to the Republic's camp again, and we will never have a chance to attack this planet next time!" Parcell-Argent exclaimed.
"There is nothing we can do about it. If this is the case, allowing the Republic to maintain a sizable garrison on the planet Christophsis can be regarded as spreading their strength. Hahahaha..." Sang- Hill smiled slyly.
"In this case, all my investment will be lost!" Parcel Argent wailed.
"I'm sorry, friend. But in business, it's normal to make profits and lose money. What do you think?" Thorn-Hill said.
"Please help me. My attack on Kamino planet also failed, and I was forced to retreat from the Bothans. If this continues, I will have nothing to do in this war!" Pasay Er-Argent pleaded.
At this stage when the war has just begun, these corporate giants actually regard this war as a sure-profit deal. Naturally, they are not willing to suffer heavy losses at the beginning of the war, so they divide the The fruits of victory come when you lag behind others. "I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do." San Hill shook his head, then turned to Gross Shelbia and asked: "Ms. Shelbia, do you still have a fleet in hand that can support the Enterprise Alliance? ?”
Gross said coldly: “If the Enterprise Alliance can lift the siege of the Mequito System and the Murinster System, then of course the fleet will be fine.”
"This..." Parcel Argent naturally knew that this was impossible. He thought for a long time and then said in a deep voice: "Master Hill...I am sure that you can save me now. It’s just you... If you have any conditions, just say it. As long as we can win the Battle of Christophsis, I will agree to anything.”
"Hehehehe..." Thorn Hill smiled proudly, "As for the solution, indeed, it's not that there is nothing... it's just..."
Parcel Argent's eyes lit up, He quickly said: "If it works, then I am willing to give half of the profits from the planet Christophsis in the future..."
"90%!" San-Hir snorted coldly, "Besides, you have to be obedient. That's it."
Passel Argent was stunned. After a long time, he wilted like a defeated rooster, "I understand..."
Sang Xi A cunning smile bloomed on Er's face again, "Recently, a new type of warship that I cooperated with the Fourth Group happened to be on trial near the planet Tatooine. Of course, these are experimental warships and will be put into actual combat. , the price is very high.”
"I know..." Argent whispered.
“And to mobilize troops from under the Hutt’s nose, I still need to open up the upper and lower joints.”
“Yes.”
“At the same time, an excellent A commander is also essential.”
“Yes...”
"The Republic has a lot of fighter jets, and we need to come up with ways to deal with them."
"Yes..."
"So you understand, the price is very high. You still Do you think 90% is a lot of profit?"
"Not much...not much..."
"That's it," San-Hir smiled coldly and closed the communication. .
...
"Parcel Argent has given in. Your plan is really effective, Mr. Governor." After a moment, Thorn Hill said to Tang Xiao in the communication.
Different from the arrogant look he had in front of Parcel Argent before, Thornhill now has a smile on his face and looks like the two brothers are getting along well.
Tang Xiao smiled with satisfaction, "Yes, in this way, the plan to bring the corporate alliance onto our tank has taken another step forward. In this case, Severance Tann can attack ”
