Among the Army equipment that is not abundant in the Galactic Republic, in addition to the high-quality and low-priced AV-7 self-propelled artillery that can be seen everywhere, heavy combat units such as AT-TE tactical assault walkers are basically concentrated.
Those on the frontline planets that need to launch an attack usually don't carry them around at all.
Not to mention the SPHA-T heavy self-propelled artillery! Even though there are not many in the army of the Republic, this kind of powerful weapon is as powerful as a battleship. It is a super equipment that is more than 100 meters long and can be called a land giant. No matter where it appears,
Then it will definitely be accompanied by a large-scale clone army!
In fact, more than two years after the war broke out, clone troopers are not particularly common on the battlefield. Previously, Kamino clones were mainly known for their small but refined style. They usually only appeared on the offensive battlefield.
, and will not take on too many defensive tasks.
Moreover, at its peak, the number of clone troopers on Kamino did not exceed ten million. This number was indeed too small for the entire galaxy.
Therefore, most of the people who appear on the battlefield are ordinary soldiers. For example, in the early days of the war when the Confederacy of Independent Systems launched its most fierce offensive, it was actually the ordinary people on the planet who often faced the torrent of steel from the B-1 combat robots.
force.
Therefore, once the clone army appears, it often means that the eyes of the Supreme Strategic Command of the Galactic Republic have been directly looked over.
But the Republic transport fleet plundered by Mira-Han revealed something else... First of all, the appearance of AT-TE and SPHA-T means that the Galactic Republic has a large-scale clone nearby.
If there is a human army, then it is very likely that they are preparing to launch an attack here - of course it cannot be the planet Tatooine, so there is a high probability that it is the planet Christophsis.
But the problem is that this transport fleet left from this direction!
So what does this mean?
Are they evacuating? Hasn't the fighting not started yet?
The Military Intelligence Department of the Principality of Dawn, headed by Mrs. M, was puzzled and could only send a large number of reconnaissance planes to the planet Christophsis in order to get more clues.
On July 13, in an unmanned system near the Yago-Durr system, a patrol formation of the Principality of Dawn encountered a formation of reconnaissance aircraft of the Galactic Republic. These reconnaissance aircraft were chased by the Roughhead-class light frigate.
Two were shot down, and the wreckage was sent back to the Yago-Dur system for analysis and research.
After analysis, it was found that these reconnaissance planes were here to detect hyperspace fluctuations and wanted to intercept hyperspace communication signals.
In the afternoon of that day, the reconnaissance aircraft sent to the planet Christofsis and the surrounding hyperspace outposts detected a large number of fluctuations in hyperspace navigation. After analysis, these fluctuations were the fluctuations of a large number of warships entering hyperspace. Therefore, this shows that a large number of warships entered hyperspace.
The spacecraft left this direction in a short time.
The Military Intelligence Department of the Principality of Dawn analyzed their recent operations in the Yago-Dur system and believed that the Galactic Republic adjusted their attack direction from the planet Christofsis to the Yago-Dur system.
This also sounded the alarm to Mrs. M. Because this information showed that the Military Intelligence Department had made a major misjudgment before - they simply believed that the Republic's next attack direction was the 20th Army or the 20th Army in the Yago-Dur System
The 17th Army of the Eriadu System.
However, it turned out that the Galactic Republic had quietly deployed a powerful force around the planet Christophsis.
If General Ling's plan had not been successful and he had proactively exposed the dock location of the Ankeron-class Titan battleship, they would have been completely unprepared when the Galactic Republic began to attack the planet Christophsis!
Fortunately, the Galactic Republic has clearly made its choice now. They are no longer covering up, and they have directly transferred their troops away from the planet Christofsis, and they are almost certainly replenishing them under the 20th Army to prepare for the attack on Yago
-Durr system, destroying the Titan shipyard of the Principality of Dawn.
It is because of this that the outpost on the planet Christophsis detected a large number of hyperspace fluctuations.
This also definitely shows that the Galactic Republic must have mastered unknown secret hyperspace channels near this star field. In order to remedy this, Mrs. M continued to send additional reconnaissance planes to conduct exploration, trying to find clues to these secret channels.
On July 14, the Supreme Military Command of the Principality of Dawn held a meeting to discuss who would command the campaign in the Yago-Dur system.
Qi Jian and others believed that this candidate should be Ling Liang. After all, she proposed the plan to attract the attention of the Galactic Republic to the Yago-Dur system through the Titan Shipyard, and Ling Liang was in a location in the Eriadu system.
A series of performances have proven that she is growing into the top military commander in the galaxy.
But Tang Xiao rejected this proposal.
He pointed out that Ling Liang was also indispensable to the Eriadu system. She had commanded the Titan battleship Xuanwu for a long time, so she was naturally more familiar with the performance of the Xuanwu and had the ability to prepare combat plans based on this.
Tang Xiao proposed that the possibility of a simultaneous attack on the three fronts of the Galactic Republic must not be ruled out. What if they become anxious and continue to mobilize warships from other fronts to actually attack the Eriadu system?
Therefore, the Titan battleship Xuanwu and Ling Liang must not move. Only if she is still in the Eriadu system, can she safely dispatch some fleets to reinforce the Model sector.
But in this case, who will direct the defense of the Yago-Dur system becomes a big problem.
The previous Yago-Durr system was commanded by Major General Lin Nanyi. He was a young general that Severance Tann was quite optimistic about. He later served as Ling Liang's adjutant for further study. It can be said that he is
Representative of the younger generation of generals who grew up in the Principality of Dawn.
But after all, Lin Nanyi was still too young to be qualified for such a large-scale battle.
General Severance Tann has now gone to the Alliance of Neutrals and accepted the military rank of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, so she is temporarily flying solo. And she herself does not like pure defensive operations. Although she is good at pre-emptive strikes,
If you really want to defend yourself, it is a powerful existence that no one can match.
There is also Admiral Trench, who is currently serving in the Confederacy of Independent Systems. In fact, his role is also very important. After all, in the original plot, Admiral Trench is a minority among the large group of losers in the Confederation of Independent Systems.
There are a few famous generals who are good at it.
After Tang Xiao conquered Trench, he sent him to the Confederation of Independent Systems in the hope that Count Dooku would not lose too quickly.
So now, he needs to find someone capable enough to command the battle in the Yago-Dur system.
