Chapter 664: The Battle of Christophersis (Eighteen)
662. The Battle of Christophersis (Eighteen)
“Attack! The communication tower must be captured as soon as possible!” Anakin-Tian The traveler shouted loudly, rushed forward with his lightsaber, and bounced back all the incoming blaster beams.
Then, led by Rex, the clone warriors bravely rushed forward.
However, the opponent's firepower was also unexpectedly fierce and very precise. Several soldiers of the Riptide Company fell down almost as soon as they rushed out.
Anakin kept rebounding the opponent's firepower, creating opportunities for his own soldiers. However, after a while, he finally realized something was wrong and shouted, "Stop advancing! The opponent seems to be a friendly force!!"
Rex also discovered that No, he quickly stopped and hid behind the bunker, took out his binoculars and took a closer look. Sure enough, through the smoke, he saw that those in the opponent's position were also clone soldiers!
But so what? On a battlefield where explosions and gunshots are constantly heard, do you still have to run out and say hello to the other side and tell the captain not to shoot, you are one of your own?
"General, what should we do? The other side seems to regard us as enemies!" Rex said to Anakin.
"The situation is a little weird. I remember that we didn't send clone soldiers to the communication tower, right? Why are there clones guarding it? And, since it is guarded, why is our communication interfered with? "Anakin frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "You let everyone provide fire cover here! I will rush over to find out!"
"This is too dangerous, General!" Before Rex could finish his words, he saw Anakin Skywalker rushing forward.
......
"Sir, what is that? It seems to be a lightsaber? Is it a Jedi?" In the defensive position on the communication tower, a soldier pointed to the smoke looming ahead. asked the lightsaber.
Slippery Picked up the telescope and looked at it, suddenly panicked, "Bastard...it's Uru-Ulix! The traitor in the Battle of Bespin!!"
"Uru-Ulix Alex? The Jedi who betrayed the Republic?"
"It turns out it's him... I've also seen the battle report of the Battle of Bespin. It's so despicable!"
"In short, we have not received any valid friend-or-enemy identification codes so far. Our mission is to guard communications. Tower, there must be no mistake! I will go upstairs now and open two fire points upstairs with CI-1094 and the others, please be careful!" said Hua Tou.
CI-1094 is one of the clone troopers who was killed by his gun in the control room just now.
"Yes! We will fight to the death and never retreat!" the clone trooper replied firmly.
……
At this moment, the communication channel of the Republic Army suddenly became noisy again, and this time, there were indeed various instructions coming from the channel!
"Qingfeng battleship, please bomb the commercial center immediately!"
"L-7 artillery position, please pay attention, our airborne troops are approaching you, please launch flare instructions as soon as possible! Direction! "
"Rebellious Jedi appear outside the communication tower, please provide fire coverage immediately!"
"Shanshi Company, withdraw from the commercial center position immediately, enemies are approaching the rear!"
"The shelter in White Light Street has been captured by the living dead. Please fire incendiary bombs to prevent the spread of the living dead!"
Most of these miscellaneous instructions were ignored by the vigilant commanders, but there were still some The more confusing instructions were carried out.
Several incendiary bombs suddenly exploded over the civilian shelter in Baiguang District, and a terrible rain of fire fell from the sky, completely turning the shelter into a sea of flames! In the shelter, civilians wailed one after another, and the ignited firemen rolled in despair on the ground, and then stopped. The scorching smell could be smelled even blocks away.
And these miscellaneous instructions finally caused the Republic's army to fall into chaos and lose unified dispatch and command. In addition, due to the previous siege of biological and chemical weapons Inchori Avengers and stopping zombies As the tide spread, the Republic's troops had already dispersed, and now the loss of communication has made them all alone.
On the frontal battlefield, the robot army launched a general attack. The commander-in-chief of the army, General Worm-Lotham, put in his last reserve force. Large numbers of retail joint LR-57 combat robots were activated, and then rushed towards the defense line set up by the Republic in the commercial center.
Not only that, the zombie groups induced by the Fourth Legion from other directions also attacked the Republic Army's position from the side and rear. The remaining hundreds of Incholi Avengers were mixed among the zombie groups, attacking those The defenders who fired wildly launched a surprise attack!
Starting from the rout of the local Christopher Sith troops defending the electronic business district, the Republic troops in several surrounding positions also fled. They were mainly local Christopher Sith. Their equipment, training and Morale was low, and communications were cut off. It was only a matter of time before they were at a loss what to do and collapsed.
Although Worm-Lotham performed poorly in this battle, he was by no means mediocre after all. He immediately seized the opportunity and personally led a militia unit organized by the Croydon people. Insert this gap and continue to expand it, and use a NR-N99 Persuader tank robot as a leader to launch a deep assault into the Republic's position.
The situation has become more and more deadly. The clone commander in the command center can no longer control the deployment of the enemy and ourselves on the front line in real time through the intelligence fed back from the front line. He can only attack based on the two Cheer-class ships in the sky. The landing ship's data link is shared to control the battle situation. However, the two warships are being attacked by a large number of invisible ghost fighters and are struggling to support themselves.
What's even more fatal is that the command center cannot effectively deliver instructions to allow its troops to retreat in an organized manner and organize new defensive positions. This resulted in the situation where the troops in front who had not yet fled and were retreating in an orderly manner did not know where they were. Several clone squadrons chose to defend in the wrong places. They only understood when robots rushed over from all directions. The position I was in before was a protrusion.
Boohoo! Whoosh! ! Explosive beams were fired like raindrops, and countless B-1 combat robots advanced while firing. The scattered corpses on the ground were trampled under their feet by their iron hooves.
A blood-stained clone trooper helmet was kicked around by the robot and kept rolling on the ground full of blood. Finally, it was stepped on and the whole thing was crushed. On the broken On the tactical eyepiece, countless robots are reflected here.
......
"Don't shoot! It's me!" Anakin Skywalker finally approached the communication tower position. He jumped in front of the clone soldiers and raised his hand He raised his hand and said loudly.
"General Skywalker?! Why you?!" A clone trooper was shocked.
"Why can't it be me?" Anakin asked.
"Slick Chief said that the one who came was the renegade Jedi Knight Uru-Ulix!" Another clone trooper replied.
"Where is Slippery now?"
"He said he went upstairs to set up a firepower point." The clone trooper pointed to the inside of the communication tower.
However, when Anakin Skywalker came inside, he only saw the corpses of several clone soldiers, but Slippery was nowhere to be found.
"Slip...damn it! I understand! He lied to us!!" The clone trooper immediately understood everything and cursed angrily.
At this time, a long-lost voice finally came from Anakin's communication, "Anakin! Anakin! What happened to you?"
This is Obi-Wan Kenobi's voice!
