640. Confusing
"Christophsis is Christophsis! Star map! Hurry!" Colonel Lott said loudly, "Also, confirm the source of the intelligence! Where is the updated decrypted information in the database? Send a receipt immediately!"
Intelligence Department suddenly became busy. Some people sent out communications to inquire about the source of intelligence. Others replaced the countless intelligence records on the holographic projection with a huge star map.
The computer quickly gave a conclusion, and Colonel Lott was sweating profusely, "Damn it, they do have this possibility! Separatist fleet If they set off from Bespin Planet and sail in the opposite direction along Corellian Trade Route, they can cross the neutral zone and enter Mustafar. If you then take Hydian Way from Mustafar, you can bypass the 18th Army defense line of Wilhuff-Governor Tarkin and directly enter the control area of Separatists!"
He continued to control the computer and issued simulation instructions. The computer simulated thousands of action routes and finally listed the most likely ones. Colonel Lott looked at the complex hyperspace routes on the star map and said, "If it is the most threatening situation, they can pass from here. The branch line of Kessel Run threatens Naboo and Enarc. If we cannot block the hyperspace channel through the blocker, Separatist fleet will be able to break through the blockade and enter Christophsis from the other direction!"
"But this is unlikely, right? A raid that spans almost half of the galaxy?" An intelligence officer was confused.
"There is definitely a possibility." Colonel Lott mused, "Now the Christophsis battle has entered a fever pitch, and Separatists's main fleet in that direction is Falin system blocking our reinforcements. And their closest war zone has also been 18th Army's Governor Tarkin is holding back, and reinforcements from other directions will not be able to arrive because Hutt has closed the border of Hutt Space... Then if Bespin Planet's fleet can raid Christophsis, there is no doubt that it will be a surprise force!"
Another intelligence officer came over and said, "The intelligence source is confirmed, Republic Intelligence Headquarters from Coruscant."
"What about credibility ratings?"
"There is no level marked, but this is the pronunciation method learned from a Dawn Star Planet construction worker. It seems to be a unique form of pronunciation in their local area. Several syllables are blended together for vague pronunciation, so we were unable to compare it before."
Colonel Lott looked ugly. If this intelligence label was very credible, he might have doubts, but now, he just kicked the ball to himself.
According to conventional calculations, it would take no more than three days for a fleet to prepare and set off, including loading supplies, soldiers, equipment, etc. That means that even if he now figures out the movements of this Separatist fleet, they only have two days to prepare.
Moreover... if Bespin Planet's fleet is allowed to slip away without them 19th Army taking any action, then this is also a serious dereliction of duty.
As an intelligence officer, he must make a decision and then feed the decision back to Governor Sulama.
"What is the number of Separatist fleet near Bespin Planet now?" Colonel Lott asked.
"The number of Separatist fleet near Bespin Planet is Fleet A. According to the intelligence, Commander is Matt-Admiral Horner. According to the last intelligence brought by our intelligence officers, they currently have 45 ships of Kohl-class Battlecruiser, 10 Sova-class Carrier, 6 Hiigaran-class battlecruiser, and there should be many small auxiliary warships, but the number of these cannot be counted. "An intelligence officer said, "In the past nearly a month, our hyperspace detection station has not detected many large-scale warship movements. The total number is only 12, so this number should be relatively close."
Colonel Lott nodded, "Now we know that Dawn Star Planet has two Admiral of the Navy, Matt-Hona showed a very calm command style among the previous Battle of Bespin, and Sefrans-Tann It was Sarabin Planet who led the army to raid Core Worlds, causing Core Worlds and Draon Planet to lose power. Her command style is cunning and changeable, and full of aggression. Currently, her Fleet B number is facing off against our Planet Kaal defense line on the planet Noah-Ha-On..."
He clicked a few times on the star map, "I think the main purpose of Dawn Star Planet deploying Fleet A in Bespin Planet is to retain the right to use Corellian Trade Route, the main hyperspace channel, to facilitate the mobilization of a large fleet. Commander from here is Matt-Hona can see that their deployment is based on safety. Previous intelligence also showed that they are building a large-scale armed space station in Bespin Planet... So I think that their move is to free up the fleet here to launch an attack while ensuring the safety of Bespin Planet!"
"That means we can confirm that Separatist fleet's attack direction is Christophsis?" asked an intelligence officer.
"It's not a confirmation, it's a choice and judgment. Report this news to Governor Sulama. Inform us of the insider hidden in Bespin Planet, and we must do our best to determine what the purpose of Separatists is!" Lott said.
At this time, in the 19th Army capital of Hoth Planet, Governor Sulama was looking at the holographic projection with a livid face. Inside, there was an old woman in Chinese clothes who was saying with worry, "... Now Coruscant's political trend is a bit subtle. After Galactic Republic's series of failures, a scapegoat must be introduced to take responsibility... At yesterday's meeting, Chancellor Palpatine made it clear that he would support Jedi Order's position."
She sighed and continued, "So now some people in the parliament are starting to blow the whistle, mainly for the previous failure of Battle of Bespin and the failure of Battle of Geonosis... Battle of Geonosis was defeated by Chancellor Palpatine attributed it to the sudden action of Separatists, which left us too late to deploy. Since then, the failure of Battle of Bespin, a counterattack operation that has received widespread attention from Coruscant, has become very conspicuous..."
Bang! The cane in Sulama's hand hit the ground hard and made a muffled sound, "Asshole! Why are you always staring at me! Isn't it the same that Byluir (Byluir), the governor of the 13th Army, lost his army in Falrin Planet?!"
"Governor Byluir is still worried about Christophsis's war, and 17th Army is also sending reinforcements in this direction. At this time, it is naturally impossible to touch him." The old woman said.
"Where did this news come from?" Sulama asked in a deep voice.
"This kind of thing cannot be traced back to its origin, but as far as I know, at least a dozen congressmen have talked about it privately... The main reason is that Chancellor Palpatine decided to launch another counterattack. You know, Kuat Drive Yards has already launched at full strength, and the mobile fleet we can use has added nearly 100 battlecruisers. But before the counterattack begins, I think it is very possible to liquidate the previous failures to boost morale."
The communication rang, Sulama looked at the information displayed on it, his face became more and more gloomy.
