The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

663. The Battle of Christopher Sith (19)

Hearing Obi-Wan's voice, Anakin was very pleasantly surprised, and said loudly: "Obi-Wan! Finally got in touch! I also want to know what happened now! Just before, our communication was completely cut off, and later There have been a lot of false tactical orders. I just arrived at the communication tower and found that the tactical commander of CI-3331, nicknamed Slippery, is a major suspect, but he has already escaped."

While talking, he asked the soldiers here to send out a light signal, calling for Rex and the others to come over quickly.

During the holographic projection, Obi-Wan said: "My technical team here has checked out that a Trojan horse has been implanted in our communication system. The technicians have already cleared part of it and restored some functions, but it is still necessary to completely restore communication." It's going to take some time...but I think we're running out of time."

He went on to say: "And the situation is very strange. Just before, under the invasion of the Trojan horse, we were constantly sending messages for help to the rear."

"Help? It stands to reason that if the separatists invaded our communication system, then we shouldn't be allowed to send a message for help?" Anakin frowned.

"The signal for help is that we are being attacked by the main force of Fleet A of Dawn Star, and request for support." Obi-Wan Kenobi said in a deep voice.

"Why did you send this message... wait a minute, are you trying to achieve something through this message?" Anakin suddenly thought of it.

"Yes, I am worried that this conspiracy also involves the Dawn Star. If this is the case, the 19th Army will be in danger! Once this message is sent back to the Supreme Strategic Command, they will think that the Dawn Star's main fleet has run away. To the other side of the galaxy!" Obi-Wan Kenobi had already figured out many things.

"No! Correct information must be sent to the rear immediately!" Anakin said loudly.

"We can't do it at the moment. We are encountering fierce attacks from the separatist fleet, and the fighter formation has suffered heavy losses. The opponent's electronic interference is very strong. Under such a battlefield situation, we cannot effectively send hyperspace communications. At present, what I can do is Use our warships as base stations to re-establish the communication network, and you must regroup your troops as soon as possible!" said Obi-Wan.

"Okay!" Anakin nodded.

Sure enough, after a while, the communication of the Republic Army gradually recovered, and Anakin immediately contacted the command center.

But the information they got was desperate, the command center was shifting, to be more precise, it was constantly retreating. Because when the communication was cut off, they didn't even know where they could establish a solid line of defense, so they could only retreat in despair, trying to exchange the complex and huge space of Crystal City for time.

Fortunately, they finally waited until the moment when communication was restored.

But unfortunately, the whole front has completely collapsed!

The clone troopers and the local troops on Christopher Sis, with a total remaining force of less than 200,000 people, were divided into more than 170 unconnected solitary troops, and at least half of them were under attack to a greater or lesser extent. .

That's right, more than 170 lone troops! It can be said that they were completely broken up!

Under such circumstances, even if military geniuses from ancient times to the present gather together, it is absolutely impossible to reintegrate the army!

Anakin-Skywalker's face was gloomy. At this moment, even he felt that the situation had completely collapsed and he was powerless to recover. He checked the locations of the scattered troops through his personal terminal, and asked, "Can you detect the location of the enemy's command center?"

"Communications have just been restored, and it is impossible for us to detect such intelligence..." the commander said.

"I think I have some clues, master." A slightly immature female voice suddenly came through the communication.

"Little devil! That's great, you're fine!" Anakin was a little surprised. Although he was very worried before, after all, there were many more important things, so he didn't have time to ask, and now he heard Ahsoka-ta Nuo's voice finally relieved his heart.

"My team had previously reinforced a local army on the northern flank of the defense line, but they had already broken up when they arrived. They were pursued by a Croydonian army. My intuition told me that the other commander Probably in this direction," Ahsoka Tano said.

"intuition?"

"Uh... I'm sorry, master, it's really just intuition..." Ahsoka also felt that his reason was a bit far-fetched, and his voice dropped.

"No, maybe this is the guidance given to you by the Force, little devil." Anakin said, turning to the commander, "I will launch a raid against the separatist commander, maybe this is our last chance gone."

At this time, another communication cut in, and Obi-Wan Kenobi said loudly: "Anakin! I have seen the situation on the ground station! Now except for the direction of Crystal City, the battlefields in other places on the planet Christopher Sis Now, our army has also suffered a defeat! Now we have to think about retreating!"

"No! If we retreat, the 35 billion people on Christopher Sis will fall into the claws of separatism!" Anakin said through gritted teeth.

"Listen Anakin! We were alone in this battle, and now we have been cut off from the Republic. This is extremely dangerous! If we don't respond as soon as possible, we may be wiped out here , if this is the case, the separatist forces in this area will no longer have any power to contain them!" Obi-Wan said.

"No, as long as I kill their commander, then there is still a chance of victory!" Anakin said loudly.

"The commander of the ground forces, Worm Lostham, is just a small character. Before that, General Yularen had already identified the existence of Admiral Trench's flagship in the Separatist fleet! In this battle, the Separatists are the elites as well. It turns out that Worm-Lortham can't affect the overall situation! And what I'm most worried about is... the mysterious power that wiped out our entire squadron in the Reese galaxy before, if that power came here, maybe We're all going to die here," Obi-Wan said in a low voice.

"I'm not afraid of sacrifice! No matter what, we should fight to the end!"

"But think about it! If our army is wiped out here, what will it mean for the Republic?! This is not an easy decision for Anakin, but we have to leave." Obi-Wan said When he said these words, his voice trembled a little.

What he didn't say was that, on the space battlefield, facing the fierce offensive of Admiral Trench and Severance Tann, the fleet of the Republic is struggling to support, and the losses are extremely heavy, and it can only be delayed for a second. The clock counts one second!

Anakin-Skywalker thought for a while and said: "Commander, Ahsoka! The plan remains unchanged, I will launch a surprise attack on the enemy commander, hoping to cause confusion for the opponent's ground forces, so as to buy you time to retreat. "

"I'm going too! Master! Now my troops are not far from the northern flank and can provide support!" Ahsoka said eagerly.

"You should..." Anakin was about to say the words of refusal, but when he saw Ahsoka Tanona's petite but immature face in the holographic projection, he finally nodded emphatically.
