2071, Planet of Rain and Clouds
The Galactic Republic, Outer Rim, Planet Jabim.
This was a planet that was surrounded by rain all year round. About two-thirds of the time, it was muddy and humid, so the development of this planet had always been slow. Although Planet Jabim had joined the ranks of the Republic 3000 years ago, they had never had a sense of existence, and the representatives of the Republic had never looked at them seriously.
But now, the discovery of a huge treasure mine under Planet Jabim had changed everything, bringing war and destruction.
It was still drizzling, and in the mud, two armies were engaged in an intense exchange of fire. One side was made up of clone soldiers wearing white plastic armor. This special plastic was very light and had good energy absorption properties, so it could protect the clone soldiers who were hit by the energy beams.
Compared to these fully-armed clone soldiers, their opponents were much simpler. They were holding outdated blasters and wore blue military uniforms made of very simple waterproof fabric. They were all soldiers of the Jabim Nationalist Front, soldiers who fought for the freedom and fairness of their planet.
But these Jabim soldiers could not withstand a single blow from the elite clone army. They lacked heavy weapons, and on the clone army's side, although the two AT-TE's were stuck in the mud and could not move, they could at least be used as fixed turrets to provide powerful firepower support.
On the other side of the battlefield, three figures were fighting quickly. The light swords in their hands danced at high speed. Ordinary people could only see flashes of light and could not keep up with their speed. Two of them were Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Their opponent was a bald woman wielding two red lightsabers. She was skinny and her skin was ashen. There were two tattoos on both sides of her mouth, which made her look strange and ferocious. Although her moves were crude, they were wide and fierce.
"Surrender, Asaji Ventress!" Obi-Wan roared loudly, waving his light swords to force the bald woman towards a large smooth stone wall. Anakin Skywalker had a tacit understanding with him. He attacked from the other side, forcing her to be flustered.
"Impossible! Obi-Wan! " A fierce glint appeared in Ventress's eyes. She suddenly raised her hand and grabbed several Jabim soldiers nearby with origin power, hurling them toward Obi-Wan like meatballs!
Obi-Wan hesitated for a moment. He didn't want to kill someone who had already lost the ability to resist. Ventress seized the opportunity to kick Obi-Wan away. She abandoned her soldiers and fled quickly.
The remaining Jabim soldiers were still fighting bravely, but they were outnumbered and were soon annihilated. The soldiers that Ventress had tossed over were the only captives, but even so, they were still cursing at Obi-Wan and the others.
"You are a bunch of murderers! Jedi Knight!! "
"Invading our homeland and slaughtering our compatriots, you deserve to die!"
Looking at these people, Anakin Skywalker was a little moved. He turned to Obi-Wan and said, "I don't think this war is fair to Planet Jabim, Master. Their suffering does exist, and the Republic has indeed let them down. "
Obi-Wan took a deep breath and said, "Stick to your heart, stick to the path. This is the way of a Jedi Knight. Perhaps the Jabim have their own reasons, but it is also an indisputable fact that they used mining rights to exchange for support from the Separatists. These minerals will be turned into weapons and used by the Separatists to kill even more people. Shouldn't we stop this from happening? "
… …
"You have once again abandoned our valiant soldiers and fled, Ventress!" A middle-aged man in a red robe with golden hair and a face full of vicissitudes shouted from the camp behind the Jabim army.
"That's because I'm much more important than them," Ventress retorted fiercely. Ventress retorted fiercely. She grabbed a dry towel from the side and wiped her drenched body while walking towards her tent. After a few steps, she turned back to stare at the middle-aged man and said, "You must remember, Otto Stratus, you only had a chance because I helped you assassinate those high-ranking officials of the Jabim government. So, don't point fingers in front of me! Without me, you are nothing! "
With that, she walked away without looking back.
Alto Stratus held back his rage and stared at Ventress' back. After a long while, he let out a heavy sigh. He whispered to the soldier beside him, "Get the Storm Assault Team ready. We will attack the Republic's rear again and delay them!"
"General, the Storm Assault Team has been fighting for a month and is exhausted … I'm afraid …" the soldier said with some difficulty.
"We can't rely on the Confederation's reinforcements now, but we must persevere to protect our home!" Otto Stratus said firmly.
At this moment, a soldier suddenly ran over and said, "General, an Independent Star System Confederation shuttle has flown over and requested to land. It wants us to provide the landing coordinates."
Stratus' eyes lit up, and he immediately became excited. "Could it be that the Confederation's reinforcements have arrived? Let's hurry over! "
Then he thought for a moment and said, "Tell Ventress the news as well."
… …
As Planet Jabim was in constant rainy weather, it was not easy to find a flat piece of land in the wilderness. Fortunately, it was only a Lamuda-class shuttle.
The shuttle's door opened, and a tall, graceful figure walked out. Even the stone-hearted Otto Stratus could not help but feel his heart skip a beat when he saw such a beautiful woman. The woman took a step forward and nodded to Stratus, saying, "Hello, General Stratus. I'm Peacock, a member of the Independent Star System Confederation. I've been ordered by the Confederation to bring you reinforcements from Planet Guardian. "
Stratus immediately became excited. He quickly asked, "May I ask how many reinforcements you've brought?"
Peacock smiled. "Not many. 10000 elite troops, 20000 combat robots, and some armored units."
"Armored units are probably not very reliable on our planet, but 30000 reinforcements are enough! Who would have thought that in the end, the ones who did not abandon us were you, the ones who were slandered as separatists by the Republic! Thank you so much! "Stratus didn't care to avoid arousing suspicion. He held Peacock's hands tightly and said excitedly.
"Oh, Councilor Peacock, why aren't you staying in Lasax's spacious office? What are you doing here?" an arrogant voice was heard. It was Ventress. She glowered at Peacock. There was no doubt that Peacock's arrival was a slap to her face. It meant that Count Dooku was very dissatisfied with the completion of her mission. This infuriated Ventress, who was eager to impress Count Dooku.
Peacock said indifferently, "I also want to be happy and relaxed, but only if you don't let me worry."
"You …" Ventress's face darkened. She was about to flare up when she saw Peacock's dry hair. She was shocked! After all, it was a rainy day!
