606. Battle of Christophsis (2)
Christophsis, July 12, 800 kilometers east of Crystal City, transportation hub Kimberley City.
In the sky, the Vulture droid fighter formation passed by, and kept swooping down to aim at the target and bombard them indiscriminately. The Christophsian army could only hide under bridges or behind some solid buildings, and carefully poke their heads out to open fire.
However, on the main road of the city, Confederacy of Independent Systems's robot army is advancing unstoppably.
The huge body of AAT assault tank moved forward slowly. In addition to the turret above, this tank, which was armed to the teeth, also had a large-caliber Turbolaser cannon on the dragon racks on both sides, and six sets of rocket launchers on the chassis. These tanks were firing while advancing. The robot army showed no mercy. As long as they found someone in the building, they would immediately open fire until the building collapsed.
There are also Christophsian soldiers who are not afraid of death and want to quietly go over and blow up some tanks, but there are several B-1 combat robots standing on these AAT tanks who are always on guard. If anyone wants to get close, they will shoot them directly.
A huge array of B-2 super battle robots and LR-57s marched directly into the middle of the road. The B-2 fired in front to suppress it, and the LR-57 fired at fixed points from behind.
The robot army is like this. There is no cover and no tactics. All they do is advance, fire, and destroy.
On a huge metal building more than 2,000 meters high in the center of the city, the battle has reached its final stage. The few remaining Christophsian troops are desperately resisting. The power supply to the elevator has been cut off. They block the stairs and keep firing at the robots that climb up the stairs.
Resistance was in vain. After the last resisting soldier was killed, a Kloiden with dark blue skin and habitually narrowed eyes came to the control center of the building. He is the famous general Volm-Lotham, Kloiden. The yellow general uniform on his body represents his growth from a civilian official to a general.
Generals like Commander, Confederacy of Independent Systems, Volm-Lotham, who are rare in excellent Commander, are among the very few capable generals now.
Volm-Lotham came to the console, cleared his throat with a dry cough, and then said in that extremely unpleasant voice, "People of Christophsis, what you are hearing now is the voice from Confederacy of Independent Systems. This planet now belongs to me. We, belong to Confederacy of Independent Systems, just as you hear this voice means, the communication center of the planet has been controlled by us, the battle is about to end, your leaders have abandoned you, they took their wealth to escape, and left you alone to face our powerful and ruthless army..."
[... Now, this planet no longer belongs to Galactic Republic, and you are no longer bound by the laws of Galactic Republic. Your planet's resources will be managed by us, and we will fight for your independence and freedom. Please do not boycott our work and actions, and remain vigilant against the retaliation of Galactic Republic elements...]
Looking at the triumphant Volm-Lotham on the holographic screen, Christophsis Prime Minister Modisai is frantically contacting all major War Zone Commanders, and there are fewer and fewer Commanders who can still keep in touch with him, and all they bring is terrible bad news.
He finally gave up and fell to the ground with his head in his hands, "It's over... it's all over..."
A generous hand was placed on his shoulder, and the heavy voice of Bail-Organa came, "We can't give up hope! 35 billion people on Christophsis are still waiting for us! As long as we work together, we will definitely defeat the invaders!"
Modisai couldn't care less. He slapped Bail-Organa's hand away, pointed at his nose and cursed loudly, "It's all your fault Galactic Republic!! Why don't your army come to support! Where is your fleet?!"
Bail-Organa finally couldn't help but sneered at him, "It was you who rejected Galactic Republic's request to garrison troops before!"
But Modisai couldn't listen at all, and he continued to curse, "Each of you is staring at the crystal on our Christophsis, and you are all staring at my money! You Galactic Republic and Separatists are all the same, and you only know how to make us pay for it! Pay for it! Pay for it!"
"Enough!" Bail-Organa said loudly, "Now we must shrink the defense line, concentrate the remaining troops to defend the core city, and organize the residents to evacuate! Then mobilize the people, organize militia groups, do their best to resist the advancement of the robot army, and then wait for reinforcements from Galactic Republic!"
He glanced at Modisai who was still incompetent and furious, sighed, and said, "My special envoy still has 500 Clone Trooper. I will lead them to the eastern suburbs of Crystal City to delay Separatist army as much as possible, where their main force is located. You should organize the next defense as soon as possible."
Back to 3 days ago, when the dispute between Christophsis was intensifying, on the other side of the galaxy, the master and apprentice Anakin-Skywalker and Obi-Wan-Kenobi had led a small army to track the whereabouts of Dark Reaper.
Through the ability taught by Ulic-Qel-Djoma, Anakin-Skywalker can already sense the boundless darkness-like energy of Dark Reaper. At the same time, he also feels that this power is tempting him to fall all the time.
Finally, he tracked Dark Reaper to Tull Planet (Thule). Impulsively, he ignored Obi-Wan-Kenobi's obstruction and led his army to directly attack the location of Tull Planet's Planetary Shield, the satellite Sivvi.
However, his army was defeated, and he could only hide in Tibet alone under the pursuit of countless robots on Sivian satellite.
While Obi-Wan-Kenobi asked Galactic Republic for help, on the other hand, they also began to think of ways to rescue Anakin-Skywalker, because there was no food and water on Sivian satellite. If they continued, Anakin would only die.
But he no longer has enough military power to attack Xiwei. Count Dooku has deployed heavy troops on Tull Planet and is preparing to launch Dark Reaper here.
At the same time, Coruscant, 476 floors underground.
In a neighborhood filled with crime, spice smuggling, red light districts, casinos... all kinds of illegal transactions are everywhere. The dark streets are often visited by crooked gamblers and drunkards. They have no future and will not think about their future.
A drunk man walked over carrying a bottle of low-quality wine and singing. However, there was nothing in the middle of the road, but he seemed to have hit something and was bounced away. But under the anesthesia of alcohol, he just got up again, shook his head and walked away.
He also failed to notice that when he was bounced away just now, the scenery within 5 meters around him seemed to tremble for a moment, and then returned to normal.
A mouse crept over from the corner of the wall, but when it entered this area, it suddenly disappeared. After a while, it crawled out from the other end of this strange space, as if nothing happened.
"Focus, sister, if the dream you gave me is wrong, then I won't be able to create the correct illusion." A small voice came out of thin air, as if a girl was speaking. The voice was very pleasant, but she couldn't see where the person was.
"That person just now stinks too much, I have to push him further away." came another girl's voice.
"Okay, hurry up. The master just asked us to investigate the Spice Smuggling activity. We should reply to her in 30 minutes."
"Okay, I have stabilized the dream again."
"Oh~~ let's get started, connect to the Governor's communication... and then see what interesting things he will let us do? Ah, sister, did you not mute the sound?"
"... I was negligent..." Following the girl's voice, the surroundings fell into silence again, with only the drunken man's walking footsteps still echoing.
