Chapter 630: The Battle of Christophsis (5)

An Acclamator-class Assault Ship landed directly on the eastern outskirts of Chaleydonia, the Capital Crystal City of Christophsis. 8,000 Clone Troopers quickly rushed out from the huge hatch with a width of 60 meters. They used TX-130 Saber-class Fighter Tanks and first launched an assault on the Droid Army besieging Senator Bail Organa.

The 500 Clone Troopers brought by Senator Bail Organa held on for a whole week by taking advantage of the difficult terrain, and now there are only more than 100 Clones left, and under the protection of these Clone Troopers, although Bail Organa's spirits was a little sluggish, at least he was still safe.

After responding to Senator Bail Organa, these Clone Troopers began to deploy more Armored Units from the Acclamator-class Assault Ship.

Since Christophsis has organized a Group of Rebels, although they are basically no-names who can barely shoot, but they are more or less a firepower point, so this Group of Reinforcements carries more Armored Units.

Among the Acclamators, 70 AT-TE Walkers and 10 SPHA Heavy Artillery were carried. The Clone Army immediately began to deploy the SPHA Heavy Artillery at high places, to attack the distant independent Droid Legions of the Confederacy.

Whorm Loathsom was eager to capture Chaleydonia as soon as possible, so he only adopted a strategy of besieging and not attacking Bail Organa's Troops. Instead of gnawing on this hard bone, he used his main force to attack Chaleydonia.

But he underestimated the determination of Christophsians to guard the Capital and the size of Chaleydonia. This Crystal City with a population of 800 Million is full of various Crystal-Like Buildings, which are very hard, and Christophsian Resistance Army Soldiers hid in every place and fired coldly, but those Droids could not hide!

Among the almost endless building complexes of this Crystal City, the 400,000 Droid Army invested by Whorm Loathsom hardly even caused a splash. Although the Droids continued to drive away the Civilians and destroy the Defenders' Resistance, their progress was still very slow.

Although in the long run, the fall of Christophsis is only a matter of time, it is clear that as Tatooine opened up the Hyperspace Lane, the Fleet of the Galactic Republic could pass, leaving Whorm Loathsom's time running out.

The Clone Army also entered Chaleydonia from several other directions. They fought the Droid Army in Crystal City, effectively delaying the Droid's offensive. At the same time, the Clone Army on the Acclamator-class Assault Ship that landed on the eastern outskirts also seriously threatened the rear of the Droid Army after establishing Artillery Positions, making Whorm Loathsom feel like he had a stick in his throat.

As a last resort, Whorm Loathsom once again asked the Retail Clan for help, and the Retail Clan, which had already lost even their underwear, had no choice but to find a Business Alliance.

An exasperated Passel Argente connected Admiral Trench's Communicator and cursed, but Admiral Trench retorted back confidently. He directly questioned Parcel Argent, why did the Republic's Fleet have the opportunity to enter Christophsis through Tatooine's Hyperspace Lane?

He claimed that his plan was flawless, but the work of the Confederacy of Independent Systems went awry, which allowed the Republic Fleet to come here directly.

This made Passel Argente speechless, and Admiral Trench was also the best Fleet Commander he could find, so he could only humbly ask Admiral Trench if there was anything else he could do.

Admiral Trench's method is also very simple, send reinforcements, both the Fleet and the Army are needed.

Now the Clone Army of the Republic on Christophsis has reached 30,000 Clone Troopers, and they have already seen how powerful these Clone Troopers are. These 30,000 Clone Troopers are absolutely capable of driving their Droid Army back.

So now we first need more Fleets to suppress the Republic's Fleet again, so that they can't continue to send reinforcements over unscrupulously. After cutting off their backup, they had to find a way to kill the 30,000 Clone Troopers.

Admiral Trench told him directly that the Galactic Republic had sent 20 Venator-class Star Destroyers, 15 Arquitens-class Light Cruisers, and even the 6 Acclamator-class Assault Ships could join the battle. In contrast, the Fleet in his hands is not enough to defeat the Fleet of the Republic, and the Hiigaran-class Battlecruiser alone is completely unable to compete with the Venator-class Star Destroyer.

Passel Argente was going crazy, where would he find such a Fleet now?!

"Then send 1 Million Droids there! Gather our Hardcell-class Interstellar Transports, and hand over the Escort Work to Mercenaries and Bounty Hunters!" Denaria Kee said viciously.

"But there are not many Mercenaries who are willing to enter the battlefield..." Passel Argent hesitated.

"Then give more money! We can't find the Battleship, but we can still find a way to get the money!" Denaria Kee said, "I also know an Arms Dealer who can also provide us with some Equipment. The man called himself Santa Claus, and his real name was Yuri Orlov has a deep relationship with both the Corellian Engineering Corporation and the Fourth Group, and he can be regarded as an Arms Dealer with a wide range of connections."

Passel Argente thought for a long time with a painful expression on his face and finally nodded fiercely.

...

"Your Excellency, the Western War Zone has been silent for too long. I hope you can launch an offensive on Kaller in the near future to put pressure on the Republic's 19th Army. It would be even better if you could capture their Headquarters, Haven, in one fell swoop." During the Holographic Projection, the hideous and terrifying Cyborg General Grievous said in that hoarse voice.

Sitting on the sofa, Tang Xiao propped his chin with one hand, and asked rhetorically, "After the defeat of the 19th Army of the Republic after the Battle of Bespin, they searched for Warships everywhere, and now they have gathered Soldiers in the Defense Line of Kaller. There are more than 300 Warships and 4 Armed Space Stations. Under such circumstances, you still want me to take the initiative to attack... Is it because of the 18th Army?"

General Grievous was very frank, and he replied: "That's right! The Fleet that we attacked the 18th Army of the Republic suffered heavy losses on Sullust. There is a great threat! I need you to defeat the 19th Army as soon as possible, and then start another Front on the Flank of the 18th Army so that Tarkin's Troops can lose sight of the other!"

"Unless we can get the Republic's Fleet to actively attack my Defense Line, otherwise, we will not be able to capture the Republic's 19th Army's Defense Line on Kaller." Tang Xiao shook his head.

"The Grans have already merged into your War Zone. This is the greatest support I can give you. I don't care what the result is, but you must launch an attack within a week! I will arrange follow-up support." Grievous said the general.

"Okay, I will do it." Tang Xiao nodded.

"Good luck, Your Excellency," General Grievous said, cutting off the Holographic Communication.

After a while, the Communicator Projected again. After connecting, it was Count Dooku who appeared in the Holographic Projection.

"General Grievous also informed me of the Supreme Command's decision just now, and I am looking forward to the performance of your Fleet." Count Dooku said with a smile.

"It's not a good choice to go head-to-head with the Republic's 19th Army's Defense Line. Our loss on Sullust is also a lesson from the past." Tang Xiao smiled wryly and shook his head, "Maybe, I need a plan to lure the Republic's Fleet out."

"If you need my help, I will be happy to help you." Count Dooku bowed very politely.

Since the previous great victory in the Battle of Bespin, Dawn has become famous in the Confederacy Senate, and Count Dooku's attitude towards him is getting better and better.

"I will immediately ask my Officers to come up with a plan for the implementation of the Specific Campaign. Now, why are you really looking for me?" Tang Xiao asked with a smile.

Count Dooku nodded, his smile became a little weird, "I hope to invite you to attend the Maiden Voyage Ceremony of our new Secret Flagship."
