Chapter 663 The Battle of Christopher Sis (19)
663, Battle of Christopher Sith (19)
Hearing Obi-Wan's voice, Anakin was very surprised and said loudly: "Obi-Wan! Finally contacted! I want to know what happened now! Just before, our communication was completely interrupted, and a large number of false tactical commands appeared. I just arrived at the communication tower and found that the tactical commander with the nickname of ci-3331 was a major suspect, but he had already escaped."
While speaking, he asked the soldiers here to send out light signals and greet Rex and the others to come over quickly.
In the holographic projection, Obi-Wan said: "My technical team has checked it out. It is a Trojan that has been implanted in our communication system. The technicians have cleared some of it and restored some functions, but it will take some time to fully restore communication... but I think we don't have much time."
He continued: "And it's very strange. Just before, under the invasion of the Trojan horse, we were constantly sending messages to the back."
"Ask for help? Logically speaking, if separatism invades our communication system, we shouldn't send us a message for help, right?" Anakin frowned.
"The signal for help is that we are attacked by the main force of the Dawn Fleet A, and we are requesting support." Obi-Wan Kenobi said in a deep voice.
"Why send this message... Wait a minute, is it that I want to do something with this message?" Anakin suddenly thought of it.
"Yes, I'm worried that this conspiracy also involves Star Dawn. If this is the case, there will be danger on the 19th Army! Once this message is sent back to the Supreme Strategic Command, they will think that Star Dawn's main fleet has come to the other end of the Milky Way!" Obi-Wan Kenobi has also figured out many things.
"No! The correct information must be sent back immediately!" Anakin shouted.
"We cannot do it at the moment. We are facing fierce attacks from separatist fleets, and the fighter formations suffer heavy losses. The electronic interference of the opponent is very powerful. In such a battlefield situation, we cannot effectively send hyperspace communication. What I can do now is to use our warships as base stations to rebuild the communication network, and you can reorganize the troops as soon as possible!" Obi-Wan said.
"Okay!" Anakin nodded.
Sure enough, after a moment, communications from the Republican army gradually resumed, and Anakin immediately contacted the command center.
But the message they received was desperate, and the command center was shifting, to be precise, it was constantly retreating. Because when the communication was cut off, they didn't even know where they could establish a solid defense line, so they could only retreat in despair, trying to exchange the complex and huge space of the Crystal City for time.
Fortunately, they finally waited for the moment when communications were restored.
But unfortunately, the entire front has completely collapsed!
The Clone and the local forces on the planet Christopher Sis, with a total remaining force of less than 200,000, were divided into more than 170 lonely troops with no connection to each other, and at least half of them were more or less attacked.
That’s right, more than 170 lonely troops! It can be said that they were completely broken up!
Under such circumstances, even if military geniuses from ancient times to the present gather together, it is impossible to reintegrate the army!
Anakin-Skywalker's face was gloomy. At this time, even he felt that the situation had completely collapsed and was unable to turn the world around. He checked the positions of the troops scattered around through his personal terminal and asked, "Can we find the location of the enemy's command center?"
"Communications have just resumed now, and it is impossible for us to reconnaise such intelligence..." said the commander.
"I think I have some clues, master." A slightly immature female voice suddenly came from the communication.
"Little kid! That's great, you're fine!" Anakin was a little surprised. Although he was very worried before, there were still many more important things, so he didn't have time to ask. Now that he heard Ahsoka Tano's voice again, his heart was finally relieved.
"My squad previously reinforced a local army in the direction of the northern wing of the defense line, but by the time they arrived, they had already collapsed. The Chloydon army was chasing them, and intuition told me that the opponent's commander was likely in this direction." Ahsoka Tano said.
"intuition?"
"Uh... I'm sorry, my master, it's really just intuition..." Ahsoka also felt that his reason was a bit far-fetched and lowered his tone.
"No, maybe that's the guide that the Force gives you, little damn," Anakin said, instead saying to the commander: "I will launch a raid against the separatist commander, maybe this is our last chance."
At this time, another communication came in, and Obi-Wan Kenobi said loudly: "Anakin! I have seen the situation in the ground station! Now, except for the direction of Crystal City, our army has also suffered failures on the battlefields of other places on the planet Christopher Sis! Now we must consider the retreat!"
"No! If you retreat, the 35 billion people on the planet Christopher Sith will fall into the clutches of separatism!" Anakin said gritting his teeth.
"Listen to Anakin! We were originally alone in this battle, but now we have been cut off from the Republic. This is extremely dangerous! If we do not respond as soon as possible, we may be wiped out here. If this happens, the separatist forces in this area will have no more force to contain!" Obi-Wan said.
"No, as long as I kill their commander, there will be a chance of victory!" Anakin said loudly.
"Wolm Lothom, the commander of the ground forces, is just a small character. General Yularen has identified the flagship of General Trench in the separatist fleet! In this battle, separatism is also full of elites. Wolm Lothom cannot affect the overall situation! And what I am most worried about is... I used to silently wipe out the mysterious power of our entire squadron in the Rees Galaxy. If that force comes here, maybe we will all die here." Obi-Wan said in a deep voice.
"I'm not afraid of sacrifice! No matter what, we should fight to the end!"
"But think about it! What does it mean for the Republic if our army is completely wiped out here?! It's not an easy decision to make Anakin, but we have to leave." Obi-Wan's voice trembled as he said these words.
What he didn't say is that in the space battlefield, facing the fierce offensive of General Trench and Sephrans-Tann, the Republic's fleet is struggling to support it, and the losses are extremely heavy, so it can only be done by dragging it for a second!
Anakin Skywalker thought for a while and said, "Commander, Ahsoka! The plan remains unchanged. I will launch a raid on the enemy commander, hoping to cause chaos in the opponent's ground forces, so that you can get time to retreat."
"I want to go too! Master! Now my troops are not far from the north wing and can provide support!" Ahsoka said anxiously.
"You should..." Anakin was about to say something that refused, but when he saw Ahsoka Tano's petite and tender face in the holographic projection, he finally nodded heavily.
Chapter completed!
