Hearing Obi-Wan's voice, Anakin was extremely pleasantly surprised and said loudly: "Obi-Wan! We finally got in touch! I also want to know what happened now! Just before, our communication was completely interrupted, and later on
A large number of false tactical instructions appeared. I just arrived at the communication tower and found that the tactical commander of CI-3331, nicknamed Slippery, was a serious suspect, but he had already escaped."
As he spoke, he asked the soldiers here to send out light signals, 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 cleared part of it and restored some functions, but there is still a long way to fully restore communication.
It's going to take some time...but I guess we don't have much time left."
He continued: "And the situation is very strange. Just before, under the invasion of Trojan horses, we were constantly sending messages for help to the rear."
"Ask for help? Logically speaking, if the Separatists invade our communication system, we shouldn't be allowed to send a request for help, right?" Anakin frowned.
"The signal for help is that we are under attack from the main force of Fleet A on the Dawn Planet and are requesting support." Obi-Wan Kenobi said in a deep voice.
"Why are you sending this message...Wait a minute, what do you want to achieve with this message?" Anakin suddenly thought of it.
"Yes, I'm worried that this conspiracy also involves the Dawn Planet. If so, the 19th Army will be in danger! Once this message is sent back to the Supreme Strategic Command, they will think that the main fleet of the Dawn Planet has escaped.
Coming to the other side of the galaxy!" Obi-Wan Kenobi has also figured out many things.
"No! Correct information must be sent to the rear immediately!" Anakin said loudly.
"We can't do it now. We are facing a fierce attack by the separatist fleet, and the fighter formation has suffered heavy losses. The opponent's electronic interference is very powerful, and we cannot effectively send hyperspace communications in such a battlefield situation. What I can do at the moment is
Use our battleships as base stations to re-establish the communication network, and regroup your troops as soon as possible!" Obi-Wan said.
"Okay!" Anakin nodded and said.
Sure enough, after a while, the communications on the Republic Army side gradually recovered, and Anakin immediately contacted the command center.
However, the message they received was disappointing. The command center was being transferred, or to be precise, it was constantly retreating. Because when communications were cut off, they didn't even know where to establish a solid defense line, so they could only despair.
He retreated, trying to trade the complex and huge space of Crystal City for time.
Fortunately, they finally waited until communication was restored.
But unfortunately, the entire front has completely collapsed!
The total remaining strength of the Clone Forces and the local forces on the planet Christophsis is less than 200,000, and they are divided into more than 170 isolated armies that have no contact with each other, and at least half of them are under attack to a greater or lesser extent.
.
That's right, more than 170 lone troops! It can be said that they were completely dispersed!
Under such circumstances, even if the military geniuses from ancient times to the present come together, it is absolutely impossible to reintegrate the army!
Anakin Skywalker's face was gloomy. At this time, even he felt that the situation had completely collapsed and there was no way to recover. He checked the locations of the scattered troops through his personal terminal and asked: "Can you detect the enemy?"
Where is the command center?”
"Communications have just been restored. 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 from the communication.
"Little devil! That's great, you're okay too!" Anakin was a little surprised. Although he was very worried before, there were still many more important things after all, so he didn't have time to ask. Now he heard Ahsoka Tower
Hearing Nuo's voice, his heart finally relaxed a little.
"My team 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 opponent's commander was very
Maybe in this direction." Ahsoka Tano said.
"intuition?"
"Uh...I'm sorry, master, it's really just intuition..." Ahsoka also felt that her reason was a bit far-fetched, and her tone lowered.
"No, maybe this is the guidance given to you by the Force, little devil." Anakin said, turning to the commander: "I will launch a surprise attack against the separatist commander. Maybe this is our last chance.
Already."
At this time, another communication came 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, there are battlefields elsewhere on the planet Christophsis.
Above, our army also suffered a defeat! Now we must consider retreating!"
"No! If we retreat, the 35 billion people on the planet Christophsis will fall into the clutches of the separatists!" Anakin said through gritted teeth.
"Listen Anakin! We were going into this battle alone, and now we are cut off from the Republic. This is extremely dangerous! If we don't respond as soon as possible, we may be annihilated here.
, If this is the case, the separatist forces in this area will no longer have any power that can be contained!" 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-Lotham, only plays a small role. General Yularen has previously identified the presence of Admiral Trench's flagship in the Separatist fleet! In this battle, the Separatists are also the elites.
It turns out that Worm-Lotham cannot affect the overall situation! And what I am most worried about is... the mysterious force that silently annihilated our entire squadron in the Reese galaxy before. If that force comes here, maybe
We will all die here." Obi-Wan said solemnly.
"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 to make Anakin, but we have to leave." Obi-Wan said.
When he said these words, his voice was trembling a little.
What he didn't say was that on the space battlefield, facing the fierce offensive jointly launched by Admiral Trench and Severance Tann, the Republic's fleet was struggling to support itself and suffered extremely heavy losses. It could only delay for a second.
The clock counts to 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 in the opponent's ground troops and buy you time to retreat.
"
"I want to go too! Master! Now my troops are not far from the north wing and can provide support!" Ahsoka said eagerly.
"You should..." Anakin was about to say the words of rejection, but when he saw Ahsoka Tano's face in the holographic projection, which was petite and immature, but still firm, he finally nodded heavily.
