At the same time, Planet Laskers 4.
The vast venue fell into chaos, and the sound of cursing and roaring could be heard without end. The representatives of the various planets looked at Count Dooku's holographic projection in the center of the venue with indignation.
"Just ten hours ago, the Republic's fleet shamelessly launched a surprise attack on us! We suffered heavy losses! This is a blatant provocation! The Republic's answer to our demands for freedom and fairness is a surprise attack by their army! This is what the Republic wants us to be enslaved or slaughtered! Are we supposed to swallow this humiliation? Are we supposed to be enslaved? No! We must resist! We must fight! For freedom! For fairness! For justice! "Count Dooku raised his arms and shouted.
"War! War! Kill those fat-headed exploiters!! "
"We want war! We want war! "
"Launch a counterattack! We must let the Republic know how powerful we are! "The representatives of the various planets roared, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely heated.
Tang Yu and the others were very calm. He looked at the representatives and then returned to his own mansion.
"The Battle of Geonosis has begun. I wonder what the outcome will be this time …" Tang Yu frowned and connected to White Queen Emma's communicator.
After Emma's holographic projection appeared, she first bowed deeply to Tang Yu before saying, "Your Majesty, the reason for the Republic's surprise attack on Geonosis is more or less clear. After Obi-Wan received your report, he began to secretly investigate the power of the dark side of the Force. He then quickly locked his target on Count Dooku. After that, he snuck into Planet Geonosis to investigate and accidentally bumped into a meeting between Count Dooku and the Trade Federation. He then reported the news that Count Dooku had fallen to the dark side and was preparing for war to the Jedi Council. That was why the Republic decided to attack him. "
After some thought, she said, "The one who provided the information to Obi-Wan should be someone from Black Sun."
Tang Yu rubbed his chin and said, "This is really strange. Even though we killed Jango Fett, our attack on Black Sun caused them to hate the Confederation. Then, Obi-Wan found Geonosis through them and became the fuse for the war. In other words, things have come back to square one? "
"The cycle of karma and retribution. That's true, although sometimes it's really a jerk," Jane Connor said from the side. She seemed a little unhappy.
"And then? Didn't the Jedi Knights raid the arena to rescue Obi-Wan? "Immortal Fox asked.
Emma shook her head. "That didn't happen. Count Dooku didn't want to kill Obi-Wan. He kept trying to persuade him to join the Confederation. However, the Jedi Knights did participate in the battle. There were more than 200 of them, and each of them led a clone army. Their vanguard was very sharp, and the Confederation's army quickly collapsed. However, the main reason for the defeat on the ground was that they lost control of the air. Count Dooku came to Geonosis this time mainly to collect goods. The robot troops that were used for the battle were goods that were not loaded onto the spaceship in time. Therefore, there isn't much air power on the planet. "
"What about the space battlefield?" Tang Yu asked.
"At first, the Confederation fleet was commanded by a good-for-nothing called Kaviktok. After the first battle was lost, Count Dooku asked me to take over his position. I did my best to preserve those Rukelihouk-class battleships. Only two were destroyed, but the other battleships suffered heavy losses. I've already sent the detailed battle reports. You can compare them, "Emma replied.
Tang Yu nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The most important thing is to see you come back alive from such a tragic battle."
A warm smile appeared on Emma's face as she replied, "It doesn't matter. Since the war has already begun, we should also take the opportunity to strengthen our forces. Now that I'm with Dooku, there should be many opportunities for me to help. "
Deity Fox was already flipping through the battle reports. As she compared the data, she said, "The strength of both sides in the battle is similar to the data in Battlecraft Wars. The Republic had invested a total of 192000 clone soldiers, over 2000 LAAT gunships, and over 2200 AT-TE walkers. Meanwhile, the main force of the Confederation was 1.1 million B-1 Combat Droids, 100,000 B-2 Super Combat Droids, and some other units. According to Emma, the Jedi did not directly attack the core of Geonosis, so the Jedi did not suffer many casualties in this battle. Although it will put more pressure on us in the short term, in the long term, preserving the strength of the Jedi is beneficial to us. "
Tang Yu nodded and said, "Moreover, after this incident, Obi-Wan will more or less owe us a favor. This way, our relationship with the Jedi Knights won't reach the point of being irreconcilable. When we expose Shiv Palpatine's true colors in the future, they won't be so unacceptable. "
"It's still too early to say that. If we expose Palpatine's true colors now, we will die immediately. There's no other possibility." Fox Deity shook her head, her eyes still fixed on the screen. "From the looks of the battle damage, although our reminder had put the army on Geonosis in a state of combat readiness, and the losses from the surprise attack were reduced significantly, the Geonosis ground troops were still completely annihilated in the end. More than 1.4 million Androids were annihilated, and more than 300,000 Geonosians were annihilated. The remaining Geonosians are hiding in caves, struggling at death's door. However, according to a rough estimate, they caused more damage to the clone army. They killed more than 12000 clone soldiers. According to the original plot, only 4,900 clone soldiers died in the entire battle. "
"The battle damage ratio is 1 to 150? In other words, it went from a terrible defeat to a terrible defeat … but it's still acceptable. After all, this time, the Confederation Army is facing a clone army of more than 200 Jedi Warriors. The pressure they are facing is much greater than in the original plot, "Tang Yu said as he rubbed his chin.
"In fact, the changes we can make in the ground battle are very limited. First of all, the Geonosis planet lacks air power. Even if we are prepared, we will soon lose control of the air. Once we lose control of the air, defeat is inevitable. Moreover, after the battle began, both Count Dooku and General Grievous were busy running away. There was no one to command the battle. The Androids fought on their own, and their combat effectiveness was unimaginable. But we can't blame them. After all, compared to the ground forces, preserving the precious space battleships and the 3.5 million robots on the Rukri Hook-class battleships is more important. " Peacock also participated in the discussion of the battle, which was very rare. Tang Yu gave her a look of approval.
"But the space battle is much better. Because we were prepared in advance, and with Emma's command, we only lost two Rukri Hook-class battleships. You have to know that in the original plot, the Confederation Army lost 14 battleships! This directly caused the Confederation Army to not have enough means to deliver the Androids after the full-scale war broke out, and thus lost the initiative. Although the other Venga-Class frigates, Defiant-Class destroyers, and Sky-class cruisers still suffered heavy losses, compared to the Rukri Hook-class battleships, they are insignificant. "Speaking of this, Fox Deity's face was full of smiles.
"The army carried by a Rukri Hook-class battleship is enough to launch a full-scale invasion of a planet. This means that the Confederation Army has an additional 12 Rukri Hook-class battleships, which will indeed be a great advantage in the early stages of the war! Now that the war has broken out, we should not hold back at this stage. We should do our best to help the Confederation Army beat the Republic thoroughly! Then try to prolong the war as much as possible, so that we have more opportunities to develop! "Tang Yu said firmly.
