Chapter 747 Fading Away
746, Fading Away
“General, we have lost contact with 5 companies. It is not clear whether it is due to weather or attack Attack." The clone commander said to Jedi Master Cyrus in the temporary command post of the northern wing of the Republic's clone army.
Sellers lifted his soaked hood, took the telescope from the clone commander and looked into the distance.
There is nothing but rain and fog in front of you. Switching between laser, radar, and infrared imaging methods is not ideal. There are reflected signals everywhere in the heavy rain, and the abnormal ionization in the clouds also interferes with the instrument. signal, which almost made them blind.
"The feeling of danger has always been lingering in my heart, and it is everywhere." Cyrus frowned.
"Are we retreating? General." the clone commander asked.
Cyrus shook his head, "On the planet Jabim, there are no more than five sunny days a year, so whether we retreat or not, we will always have to face such weather. We are now The only thing we can rely on is the strong strength of our main army."
The clone commander looked at the AT-TE walkers and AT-XT walkers struggling in the mud and shook his head. With the weight of the AT-TE, it can at least be submerged into mud close to 1 meter deep if it is kicked down. To lift it up again, the engine power required is more than 10 times that of normal conditions. Both speed and consumption are far beyond the limit. It has reached the limit of normal combat operations.
Sellers said to the few Jedi Knights behind him: "We can no longer divide our troops. Each of you will take a group of people to the direction of the missing company to confirm their situation."
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Several Jedi Knights nodded in agreement, and then each brought a few soldiers with them and climbed onto the Zephyr-G hoverbike (Zephyr-), which is the standard equipment of the Republic Army. Gswoop) speeding in several directions.
Sellers looked at their figures that had disappeared less than 50 meters away, with a solemn look on his face. He turned around and asked again: "Has the main force of the Jabim rebels been found in the direction of Master Nocuna?"
"No. In the routine communication half an hour ago, he said that they were preparing to attack Chuka City. It seems that the situation there is better than ours. At least they can still dry after arriving in Chuka City. Take a rest inside the house, and we haven’t seen any towns or even villages for several days,” the clone commander said.
At this moment, a LAAT/I assault transport boat fell from the sky. The transport boat was swaying in the heavy rain and could not fly stably, so it could only barely land. However, as soon as it landed, it fell headlong into a mud pit, and the entire transport boat turned over. The soldiers on the ground quickly directed a nearby AT-TE walker to go over, put on a steel cable to pull the LAAT, and rescued the driver.
As soon as the driver was pulled out of the mud pit, he shouted loudly: "General! There is enemy situation! A separatist robot army was discovered in an area 10 kilometers away from us in the north! There are at least 10 OG-9 Nest Spiders among them. Combat machinery!"
Master Cyrus said immediately: "The separatists can't hold back anymore! The whole army is ready to fight!"
...
At the same time, a Jedi Knight was driving forward on a Zephyr-G hoverbike with four clone soldiers.
They did not realize that their whereabouts on the nearby cliffs had fallen into the enemy's control.
Asajj Ventress put down the telescope and said with a ferocious smile: "You are indeed here, Jedi Knight."
She stood up from her hiding place, only to see her Behind him was a charred battlefield, with the corpses of hundreds of clone soldiers lying on the ground, and the burning remains of an AT-TE walker.
"Give them a surprise." Ventress said coldly. Beside her, more than a dozen gnolls let out a terrifying scream, then picked up their sniper rifles, without even using sights, and aimed directly with their excellent vision.
Bang! Bang! Bang! There was a continuous burst of gunfire.
The leading Jedi reacted very quickly. He had already pulled out his lightsaber when the Jackal's finger was on the trigger. With a quick swing, several sniper bullets were blocked.
But the clone troopers behind them were not so lucky. They were either knocked off the hoverbike by sniper bullets, or the hoverbike was hit and threw them away.
"Okay! He's mine!" Ventress lifted up his cloak, took off two cranked lightsabers from his waist, and rushed directly towards the Jedi Knight!
"This is indeed your conspiracy! Dark believers!!" The Jedi roared and came forward.
"I accept your life." Ventress swung his lightsaber like a gust of wind, defeating the Jedi Knight's sword power in just a few back and forth, and then sheared the swords. A head flew straight up.
......
Another front, Chuka City.
Jedi Master Nocuna looked at the small city in front of him, took a deep breath and said to the clone commander, "Go and negotiate with the local residents to see if we can rent their houses for us to rest. We will never damage any of their property and will pay adequate rent.”
After a while, the clone commander returned and reported: "They agreed."
Master Nocuna nodded and said: "The entire army entered the city, and the armored units were on guard at the periphery. After confirming safety, they took turns to rest. Dry the clothes. In addition, all units are strictly prohibited from disturbing the people, otherwise they will be dealt with seriously!"
"Yes!"
The clone army began to enter the town, and the residents in the town were very cold. He didn't even want to say anything, he just led the clone soldiers into the warehouse or compartment, and then they went back to their homes and never came out again.
The clone soldiers were also in good order, paying credits to each house and carefully stationed themselves inside the house. Master Nokuna is also constantly coordinating to prevent conflicts between soldiers and civilians.
Fortunately, the conflict did not occur. Even if there were some collisions, the local civilians said it was okay and walked away as if they were avoiding the plague.
Unknown to the Republic Army, these local residents all went into the basements of their houses after returning home, locked the entrances, and the family hugged each other tightly, waiting until that time came.
They don't even know that in the city's huge underground drainage pipe network, countless robots are squatting here in a shutdown state, and they remain motionless even if the rain washes them away.
The armor on these robots is integrated and completely sealed. Even if they squat in the water, not a drop of water will penetrate. Their heads are very pointed and look like they are wearing a pointed hat.
