1587. Believe
The doctor was stunned when he saw that Wilhuff-Tarkin was actually talking to Gillard-Perine, and was directly wearing a big hat of discussing confidential military information.
"Do you need me to repeat it a second time?" Tarkin said coldly.
"No... no..." The doctor quickly turned around and walked out. He also made a trade-off at this moment. Compared to the Governor of the Seventh Army Marceline Wessel, there is no doubt that Wilhuff-Tarkin is more powerful.
Although both of them are Sector Governor, compared to Marceline Wessel, who was in her 50s and barely relied on her connections and qualifications to get into a remote star region, it is obvious that Wilhuff-Tarkin is closer to the core of political power of Galactic Republic.
After all, Marceline Wessel's Seventh Army was not on the front line at all before the destruction of the Eighth Army. Its main responsibility was to explore Unknown Regions. How much power can you expect from a legion whose main responsibility is exploration?
Compared with Wilhuff-Tarkin, when he served as the governor of the 18th Army, he was responsible for guarding the transportation hub Eriadu system, and also shouldered the important task of suppressing Salust. From that time on, 18th Army was a front-line combat corps. And even after the 18th Army suffered a disastrous defeat, Tarkin could rise again and serve as Governor of the Fourth Army!
This kind of resume alone is enough to push Marceline Wessel to the ground and rub her.
After the doctor fled in a hurry, Wilhuff-Tarkin turned around and looked at Gillard-Perine and said, "Although it was recommended by Dean Conrad, the reason why I I am willing to listen to your opinion, but I value you personally, Colonel Peren. Although the two battles you commanded ended in failure, judging from the battle situation, there are many highlights in your command. To put it bluntly, I appreciate you. Tell me, what military information do you want to report?"
Gillard-Perine said eagerly, "I hope to immediately increase the number of troops Faida Planet! Because Faida Planet is likely to be the springboard for Geth to attack the planet Palin-Minor, the capital of the Ninth Army!"
Tarkin frowned and said, "As Rytal Military Academy's top student in the current period, you should not make common sense mistakes. So, what made you ignore the geographical factors and make such a judgment?"
"I don't have direct evidence. But I analyzed various data when Geth fleet appeared in the past four months. There were more than 270 cases before and after. The analysis of these cases showed that more than 30 of them, Geth fleet had problems with its state after jumping out of hyperspace." Gillard-Perine pulled out his personal terminal data again.
"What's the problem?" Wilhuff-Tarkin, unlike Marceline Wessel, was looking at the data carefully, "Wait a minute... In these cases, after Geth fleet left hyperspace, the shield was deployed, and there was a process of restarting the engine?"
"That's right! This means that these Geth fleet are performing hyperspace jumps with their propulsion engines turned off and their shields raised! But we know that hyperspace jumps are actually sailing in the hyperdimensional space and will not turn off their propulsion engines!" Gillard-Perine said.
He then pointed to the optical images detected by several of the sensors and said, "And you see, these Geth warship still maintain a neat battle formation after leaving hyperspace. But in fact, after the hyperspace jump, the hyperspace fluctuations caused by the warships will cause the coordinates of subsequent warships to be slightly different after they leave! If the fleet is large enough, the difference in coordinates may reach tens of kilometers! In this case, it is impossible for the fleet to maintain such a neat formation!"
"So?" Tarkin touched his chin and guessed a possibility.
"So I judge that these Geth fleet are traveling at super-light speed in a relatively stable and stationary state. Yes, this is probably not a hyperspace jump, but another method of super-light speed navigation!" Gillard-Perine said, "If If we judge based on this basis, then Faida Planet is the closest springboard to the planet Palin-Minor! So in this case, Geth's attack on Faida Planet is not an act of plunder and harassment, but..."
Perine said the last few words with a solemn expression, "Determined to win!"
The communication room fell into a dead silence. Gillard-Perine looked at Tarkin's face with uneasiness.
After several minutes, Wilhuff-Tarkin said, "I really want to label you as mentally ill and throw you directly into prison. However, there is another voice in my head that makes me believe your crazy rhetoric. Well, if I give you this opportunity and let you defend Faida Planet, how many troops do you need?"
Gillard-Perine said without hesitation, "300,000 Clone Army! And it's Kaminoan clones, not Spartan clones! According to my judgment, Spartan clones's unstable mental state will collapse in the face of Geth."
Wilhuff-Tarkin laughed dumbly and said, "300,000? Do you know that even when facing Separatists, we have never invested such a large number of Clone Trooper on any battlefield. And don't forget, Separatists is also a robot army."
Gillard-Perine supported the console with both hands and said very seriously, "Your Majesty the Governor, Geth... they are not robots. They are a race that is completely different from all the races we know, another model. This is not War of Power, this is... a battle of races, a battle of survival. An army of 300,000 people may be just the beginning."
Wilhuff-Tarkin thought for a while, then pressed a few times on the communicator, and another person soon appeared in the holographic projection. An old man in his 50s, bald and skinny, is actually Perine's immediate boss, Governor of the Seventh Army, Marceline Wessel.
However, in front of Tarkin, the arrogant Marceline Wessel just now no longer existed, replaced by a flattering look on her face, "Governor Tarkin, it's been a long time. May I ask, what do you think of me when you suddenly come to see me?"
"I will recruit Gillard-Colonel Peren, and Seventh Army's Second Sub-fleet under his command, to go to Faida Planet for reinforcements." Wilhuff-Tarkin did not use the tone of discussion at all, but made a decision directly.
Marceline Wessel did not dare to disobey. He said, "This is natural. I will immediately arrange for Second Sub-fleet to be redeployed... However, Second Sub-fleet's battleship was seriously damaged and currently does not have much combat effectiveness..."
"I will make up for him. That's it." Wilhuff-Tarkin dropped this sentence without any explanation and closed the communication.
