The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1227、Fatal Misjudgment

After Rush Clovis turned off the comms, Longo thought for a moment and said, "I still feel like something's not quite right..."

"According to our previous information, how many separatist warships are stationed on the planet Megeto?" Fan Ke also frowned in thought, he asked.

"There are more than 50 thousand-meter-class capital ships, and more than 100 small and medium-sized warships." Longo said the result directly, "Then according to our outpost observations, the Geth warships that went to the planet Megito one after another, More than 130 ships, but many of them are small and medium-sized warships. If we add the movements that we can't observe, there may be more than 200 Geth warships..."

"With a fleet of this size, there should be a fierce battle between the Separatists and the Geths... Moreover, the Geths are indeed increasing their troops on the planet Megito." Fan Ke said, "The battleships of the Geths are very powerful. , at least two to three times stronger than a Republic warship of the same size... Such a balance of power can even be considered difficult for the defenders of McKeeto."

Longo also stroked his chin and said, "It's hard to handle, but it doesn't mean it's impossible to handle. So Planet McGeeto wants to send that thing out while they still have the strength to fight? But they don't have enough troops, So they can only issue the announcement, they know that as long as the emergency asylum agreement is issued, then we will definitely respond."

"That's right. As long as the emergency asylum agreement is sent out, we will definitely respond." Fan Ke said: "Just now what Rush Clovis said is correct, the thing sent by the Interstellar Banking Association, whether it is a database or a bill Or something else, in short, it must be more precious than our fleet. Therefore, Planet Mequito also grasped this point, so it wants to fish in troubled waters!"

Longo suddenly said: "You said... If the fleets of the Geth and the planet Megito did not fight... would it be..."

Immediately he was also amused by his own thoughts, "Well, I admit it was just a joke."

"If I hadn't known you for many years, what you said just now, I could have dismissed you for the crime of avoiding war." Fan Ke also smiled. The problem of greater loss."

"I'm going to let the fleet go to battle." Longo knocked his empty spice pipe on the table, "Megeeto wants to fish in troubled waters, and wants us to distract the geth so we can send things away? Hehe, Then I will do the opposite, grab their transport ship with a tractor beam and let them continue fighting the geth!"

"Try to minimize the loss of some battleships. After all, we still have a lot to do." Fan Ke urged.

Longo nodded, "It doesn't matter, buddy, I'm a bounty hunter. I'm a bounty hunter? Fishing in troubled waters? Hehe, I'm much better at it than the aristocratic kid who grew up in the inner circle like Rush Clovis!"

After the discussion was made, Longo immediately began to prepare.

It never crossed their minds that the geth and the planet Mygeeto might be together.

After all, from the appearance of the Geth until now, all they have brought is killing and plundering. All the planets targeted by them have been massacred, resources have been robbed, and factories have been moved, whether it is a separatist planet or a planet of the Galactic Republic. All have been poisoned by the geth.

What the geth shows is completely hostile to organic life. And it was true, no one would think that a mechanical life race would have a friendly attitude towards organic life forms.

Although many more planets of the Galactic Republic were attacked during this process, it is also because in the northern region, except for the core planets such as Mullinster and McKeeto, most of the areas are still in the Milky Way. Meaning that the Republic is in control.

No one doubts anything else.

Under such a premise, when the Geth go to the planet Megeeto on a large scale, and the number is still increasing, then apart from the fierce battle between the two sides there, there must be no second result!

As for the fact that Geth and Planet Megeeto are together? Such a thing is simply impossible!

As Fan Ke said, if Longo really said that, he would only use it as an excuse to avoid the war.

But what they don't know is that...

Longo's casual joke just now is precisely the truth! !

And what they didn't know was that they were so close to this fact that there was only a few seconds of time difference!

Because in the barracks area of ​​Planet Kali, Master Sass-Ting has already told this matter! But at the last moment, he saw the distress signal from the planet Megeeto, and saw the geth wreaking havoc on the planet Megeeto.

This news made Master Sass-Ting a little suspicious. During the few seconds of hesitation, General Dilar, who was knocked out by him, rushed forward and interrupted his communication.

Let this most critical information fail to be sent out in the end!

But in the final analysis, this is also the bitter fruit that Fan Ke and Longo planted themselves!

If they hadn't turned the geth's invasion on deaf ears and instead had been intent on helping Schiff Palpatine and Rush Clovis to plot against the Interplanetary Banking Association...

If they didn't have sinister plans to lure the geth to the planet Megeeto...

If they didn't have a guilty conscience, worried that Master Sass-Ting would object, and didn't tell Sess-Tin about the plan, and the result was that they waited for him to leave before taking action on their own, causing the Jedi Master to know nothing about it...

Then Master Sass-Ting will not be disturbed by the information that Megeeto planet was invaded by Geth at the last moment, and then the information that Geth and Separatism are allies can naturally be sent out.

The time difference of a few seconds actually means countless causes and effects.

Is the Geth an ally of the Separatists? The intelligence of this sentence may mean two completely different strategic directions and coping methods!

Based on a completely wrong judgment, Fan Ke and Longo issued an order to send themselves to hell—the main fleet of the Eighth Army immediately dispatched to the planet Mequito!

If judged normally, what they encountered on the planet Megeeto should be the Geth fleet and the Separatist fleet that are fighting fiercely. Then they can not only preserve their own strength in troubled waters, but also find a way to make it enough for them to The thing that the planet McKeeto issued an emergency evacuation agreement snatched over.

But the current situation...is completely the opposite of what they thought!

When the 60 Jaeger-class battlecruisers of the main fleet of the Eighth Army of the Galactic Republic departed from the battleship berth on the planet Ord-Mantel and entered the hyperspace channel...

They also plunged into the trap jointly set by this Geth and Tang Xiao!
