741. Bloody Battle Jabiim (Part 1)
Such an agreement is simply a shame in the eyes of the people of Jabiim planet!
Jabiim planet A very courageous and charismatic figure stood up, Alto-Stratus (Alto Stratus). He denounced the greed of Galactic Republic in several public speeches.
"... We have joined Galactic Republic for 3000 years! We have dedicated our loyalty, our resources, and our labor force! But now, our Homeworld is drowned in blood!!"
"... where was Galactic Republic when we were invaded by Lycian pirates?"
"... where was Galactic Republic when we were enslaved by Trandoshan's slave traders?"
"... When we broke out Brain Plague and lost half of our people, where was Galactic Republic?!!!!"
"... And now! Jabiim planet discovered the ore vein, and Galactic Republic is here!! They came with stinky meat and moldy food!! They want to use these things to 'aid' us, and then 'help' us mine the vein!!"
"... What do Galactic Republic want the ore for? They want to join the war! They want to build battleships! They want to maintain their rule!!"
"But, no! I want to tell them, no!!! If our ore is going to be thrown into the war, then I would rather go into a war that destroys Galactic Republic!!"
"Let Galactic Republic know the pain of our wives being separated and the destruction of our families!! Let Galactic Republic know the pain of being hungry and enslaved!!... We must pay back all of this pain to them in full!!!"
The speeches of Alto-Stratus were impactful and successfully ignited the flames of resistance on Jabiim planet against Galactic Republic.
Then, he suddenly launched a coup in Jabiim capital city and massacred most of the MPs in current Jabiim government who were loyal to Galactic Republic and prepared to sign an unequal agreement with Galactic Republic on the exchange of ore for food.
Then Alto-Stratus established Jabiimi Nationalists (The Jabiimi Nationalists), referred to as Jabiimi National Army, in the Jabiim planet coastal city Rezaal (Razor), which directly started the civil war.
It was only then that people discovered that the Jabiimi Nationalists army under Alto-Stratus was well-equipped and well-prepared, and equipped with a large number of combat robots!
Confederacy of Independent Systems did not miss this opportunity. Count Dooku had secretly contacted Alto-Stratus. The two hit it off and reached a cooperation agreement. And because of the long-term good relationship between Dawn Star Planet and Jabiim planet, Fourth Group also began to accept orders from Jabiim planet, providing a large number of M-15 Defender assault rifle to Jabiimi Nationalists at a discounted price.
This assault rifle using Hypermatter electromagnetic acceleration is far more effective than the DC-15 Blaster rifle commonly equipped by Republic clone army in the swamp environment of Jabiim planet, which is commonly equipped with Republic clone army. Because Blaster rifle will have a large amount of energy leakage in a heavy rain environment and its power will be greatly reduced.
The corrupt and greedy current Jabiim government had no preparation at all, and their army had no combat effectiveness. They collapsed at the first touch. Soon Alto-Stratus occupied most of Jabiim planet's cities.
The remaining troops of Jabiim government forces are now making their final resistance under the control of Commander Orliss Gillmunn, and Galactic Republic is notified urgently, requesting Galactic Republic to send reinforcements.
At this moment, Galactic Republic is losing its troops in General Grievous's raging offensive, and is teetering on the edge of collapse. There are not enough warships to invest in this direction.
So after research on Republic Supreme Strategic Command, we came to the conclusion that because of the unique environmental climate of Jabiim planet, it is not suitable for fighter jets and warships to enter the atmosphere to fight. Even Orbital Bombardment is very difficult, because you can hardly hit the target accurately, unless you carry out mass extermination.
Therefore, the battle on this planet is basically based on land warfare, so Galactic Republic decided after research to send more Jedi Knight to participate in the battle.
They dispatched three people including Jedi Master Selius, Nokuna and Laiska, as well as other Jedi Knight and Jedi apprentice, a total of 40 people. Such a large team hopes to make a difference in the complex political environment of Jabiim planet. If Alto-Stratus can be arrested directly through beheading operations, it may be possible to win without a fight. If not, these Jedi Knight can quickly gain an advantage on the battlefield.
The decision of Supreme Strategic Command also took into consideration that in the mud and swamp of Jabiim planet, their superior armored forces could not be used, so more Jedi Knight were sent.
However, when Galactic Republic, three Acclamator-class assault ship, and Clone Army with nearly 21,000 people landed, they found that the situation was far worse than they imagined.
Jabiim planet The government troops have almost no combat capability. Their equipment is outdated and their morale is low.
On the contrary, Jabiimi Nationalists led by Alto received full support from Count Dooku and Fourth Group. They were wearing Liberator combat suit that Fourth Civilization had changed from the army this time, and were holding M-15 Defender assault rifle. The sealed combat uniforms and Hypermatter accelerated live ammunition make them at home in such an environment.
And the most important thing is that almost all civilians on Jabiim planet hate Galactic Republic. It is impossible for Republic army to get any support from the local residents. They don't even dare to ask for directions, because it has indeed happened that the residents leading the way directly led them into the robot army's station.
Alto-Stratus also showed strong military talent. He is a Force-sensitive [Note 1]. Although he has not received systematic training, the Force also gave him keen intuition, strong physique and skilled combat skills.
Jedi Knight launched several beheading operations against him but failed, and even cost the lives of two Jedi Knight and one Jedi apprentice.
The occurrence of casualties in Jedi Knight also means that this battle has entered a more cruel stage.
Jabiimi National Army and Republic army launched an extremely bloody battle. They fought in almost every inch of swamp and every patch of mud. Even with the help of robots, Jabiimi National Army is still not afraid of death. They are even willing to rush towards Galactic Republic's AE-TE walker with Proton Bomb in their arms, and die together with these powerful armored units!
Jabiimi National Army under the command of Alto launched attacks against the Clone Army again and again like waves. There were many of them. Even though each battle left a large number of corpses, their soldiers still fought one after another!
At this time, it happened that the troops of Obi-Wan-Kenobi and Anakin-Skywalker were defeated at Bakura planet, so Republic Supreme Strategic Command also threw them into this battle.
At the same time, reinforcements from Confederacy of Independent Systems also arrived.
Dark Apprentice of Count Dooku - Asajj-Ventress leads 10,000 state-of-the-art Series-A Amphibious Battle Droid into the battle.
Not only that, Dawn Star Planet also sent an expeditionary force.
Selurite, who is good at amphibious warfare, directly sent troops to join the battle!
Selurite gathered 1000 Selurite and 15000 Gnoll to form a huge army and entered the battlefield, and immediately entered the battle!
Selurite also sent a combat advisory team to the Staff Department who joined Alto to provide them with support.
At the same time, Dark Jedi Knight Ulu-Ulix, who betrayed Jedi Order under the temptation of Darth-Malthael, joins the battle! -

[Note 1: There is no setting indicating that Alto is Force-sensitive, but it does not say that he is not. At least in the plot, he can indeed defeat some ordinary Jedi Knight in hand-to-hand combat, so it is better to add this setting.]
