1595. The war resumes

Those gangster groups on Faida Planet were also attacked by Clone Trooper.

Clone Trooper went straight over in the assault transport boat, blasted the door open and read the recruitment order, and shot to death anyone who dared to resist. Those gangsters usually just lord it over civilians, but it is simply impossible for them to face Kaminoan clone troopers, who is famous throughout the galaxy.

Even if they can resist, the firepower of the LAAT/I assault transport craft hovering in mid-air is no joke!

A few gangsters were directly wiped out because they tried to resist. Most of them could only be captured without restraint. They were then taken to several temporary military camp training grounds. After a short training, they were ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

Many of these gangs and mercenary groups resisted Corpse Puppet's attack in Derapha City, and after Clone Trooper of Henderson came to reinforce, they retreated back to Chynesti City because they hated Galactic Republic.

Now, after witnessing the overwhelming number of Corpse Puppets, seeing the ferocious Yamrii corpse puppets, and seeing the cold-blooded Geths, the courage these people mustered up in the face of death instantly dissipated, leaving only endless fear.

So many gangs and mercenary groups began to hide in their respective strongholds, and then burned, killed and looted wantonly. They just wanted to have a good time before they died. As for what happened to Geth, they no longer wanted to care.

During those two days, Chynesti City almost turned into a city of chaos, with everyone closing their doors and not daring to go out. In this case, it would be amazing if Clone Army brought by Lieutenant General Henderson can get the support of those people.

For other civilians on the planet, the problem is much easier to solve.

After taking down the gangster groups and mercenary groups on the planet, many of these people began to work as maintainers of law and order and as recruiters. These people are very familiar with such things. They knock on the door from door to door, then enter the house to search, and forcibly take away every man of the right age.

Clone Trooper no longer needs to carry out these tasks. Clone Trooper began to return to the front line, and some injured and disabled people served as instructors in the barracks.

Not every one of these recruited men went to the battlefield, but many went into factories and farms to engage in production work to ensure the logistical supplies of the war.

As for those women, arrangements will also be made to engage in the production work they can do, as well as medical, sanitation, cooking and other work.

In short, the strategy of Gillard-Perine is to mobilize the power of the entire planet to fight Geth to the death!

Within 5 days, about 200,000 gang members and more than 50,000 mercenary members were recruited on Faida Planet, in addition to more than 1 million non-combatants from these gangs. Later, with the help of these people, approximately 7 million civilians were recruited into the militia.

More than 90% of these people are in capital, Chynesti City. In future work, the scope will also be expanded to other cities.

The militia was used to build more barracks and build stronger fortifications, and then further recruitment followed, which mobilized more men.

General mobilization is a very systematic process. Even if there is a mobilization plan, the mobilization time for a planet will be approximately 3 months to half a year. Naturally, Faida Planet cannot have any mobilization plan, so it will take a long time to really mobilize the power of the entire planet.

But the current situation is better than nothing.

The only good news for Gillard-Perine is that the fleet he sent to Kotaris Planet did not encounter Geth fleet, and successfully sent over the supplies and heavy vehicle units that Lieutenant General Henderson had thrown over there. Although this batch of equipment and supplies is only for the 80,000-strong Clone Trooper, and the quantity is not too large, it is still a powerful force.

However, bad news also came one after another. As he expected, their transport fleet began to be harassed by Geth warship. Just like before, these Geth warship appeared mysteriously and suddenly appeared without passing through any hyperspace channel. Wullf-Admiral Yularen had to send more warships to form a convoy to protect the navigation of the transport fleet.

However, during the intensive reconnaissance, the defenders of Galactic Republic finally saw that the Geth warship that suddenly appeared behind them were actually like hyperspace jumps when they evacuated. They needed to leave the planet's gravity well before they could be started. However, when they left, various instruments and equipment did not detect any hyperspace fluctuations.

This proves that Geth warship is indeed not a hyperspace jump!

The observation results were immediately sent back to the Galactic Republic Research Department. Speakers Sheev-Palpatine attached great importance to this matter. He personally gave instructions and asked Research Department to find out the principle of Geth's super-light speed navigation within a month.

At the same time, on the sixth day after the reinforcements from Gillard-Perine arrived, Geth finally launched another attack!

And Geth's attack this time was not just against Chynesti City, but launched attacks in several cities at the same time! It is obvious that in the past few days, Geth has been constantly reorganizing and deploying the offensive direction of his army.

They want to capture more cities by expanding their front lines to obtain more Corpse Puppet materials!

Clone Army began to lead the conscripted militiamen to resist desperately. The work they arranged for the militiamen was very simple. They gave them enough weapons and then let them enter some less important positions. Then they were asked to only open fire on the attacking Corpse Puppet and Geth.

And among these recruited militiamen, there was even a B-1 combat robot! Such robots are sold almost all over the galaxy, so it is very common for them to be purchased by some mercenary groups and gangs to be used as thugs.

In fact, on the battlefield, sometimes these militiamen really hope that the person standing next to them is a B-1 combat robot instead of other equally unreliable militiamen. At least B-1 can help you block a bullet, right?

In the first few waves of offensives, the addition of a large number of militiamen also achieved very significant results. At least they increased the firepower density of Republic army. This is very important in a battle situation where Corpse Puppet is used as cannon fodder.

At the same time, on the space battlefield, Geth fleet also launched an attack again! However, this time Gillard-Perine brought a powerful enough fleet, so the actions of these Geth warship began to focus on harassment, mainly to prevent Republic warship from carrying out Orbital Bombardment.

While Faida Planet's tragic battle broke out again, Galactic Republic Capital Coruscant, Governor of the Fourth Army Wilhuff-Tarkin also received a special communication——

Governor of the Ninth Army, Dunn-Vesex!
