2090, Battle of Kristofsith (Lower, Lower)
Fox Immortal nodded. "The Republic will not allow us to obtain Kristofsith, one of the Kyber crystal production areas. They are very determined to protect this planet, so there's no need for us to fight recklessly here. Actually, we can choose to continue contending with them on the ground. "
Trench, however, shook his head. "We need to hold off the Republic's fleet here, at least until the ground forces take over Topen's spaceport before retreating. Tsk tsk tsk tsk. "
"This can't be forced. I'm willing to bet that the Republic's next wave of attack will be fatal," Fox Immortal said.
Trench looked at her strangely and asked, "You seem very certain that I'll fail in the next wave of attack? What do you know? "
I know that you'll fail in this aerial battle and luckily escape, only returning to the battlefield after recuperating for more than a year. However, you'll miss the most crucial period of the Independent Star System Confederation and won't be able to display your talents on the battlefield. Fox Immortal said in her heart, but she did not expose him. Instead, she continued to push this to her intelligence network. "Because I've received news that the Republic has sent two armies to participate in this battle. They're the 501st Army and the 212th Assault Regiment. Including the other troops, their total military strength is close to 100,000. Moreover, in the battle just now, the enemy's Jedi Warriors did not participate. Therefore, I feel that if they move out, it'll be a thunderous blow. In addition to the difference in strength between the two fleets, I have to prepare for the worst. "
Trench habitually touched the chelicerae at the corner of his mouth and shook his head. "As a soldier, the strength of the enemy is not a reason for us to retreat. According to the plan, we should hold off the Republic's fleet here until we open up the situation on the planet. Therefore, although the battle is very difficult, I plan to hold on here for at least another three days. Tsk tsk tsk … "
Fox Immortal thought about it and said, "Then I only have one request. You must be prepared to retreat at any time. Because this is our flagship, this Rukrihouk-class battleship, will definitely be the enemy's main target. Everyone in the Milky Way knows that this giant doughnut is most afraid of a sudden attack from the fighter fleet. "
She looked at the giant humanoid spider again and added, "According to the previous appointment, the highest commander of Battle Zone G is now Tang Yu. Therefore, even if it's an order, I have to make you do this. Do you want to talk to Tang Yu? "Immortal Fox took out a communicator and handed it to Trench.
Trench's eight small eyes flashed as he smacked his lips and said, "That's not a pleasant way to talk, tsk tsk tsk tsk. But you seem to have other concerns, so I accept. Relay my orders to all ships. Keep the broadside facing forward and be ready to turn at any time. "
After the battlefield calmed down, more than a day had passed. Both sides had their own plans and did not take the initiative to attack. Instead, they seized the time to repair their damaged warships.
After that, a lone Hunter-class cruiser appeared on the battlefield, approaching the Confederate Fleet's defensive zone.
Trench looked at the holographic image on the screen and pondered. "A battleship? What were they sent here for? Surrender? Or are you plotting something? "
Immortal Fox looked at the screen and didn't say anything.
At this moment, a B-1 robot in charge of communications turned around and said, "Report, a public channel is being transmitted."
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk … Take it." Trench touched the chelicerae at the corner of his mouth.
The holographic projection flashed, and a handsome middle-aged man with a big beard appeared. It was Obi-Wan Kenobi. He looked at the image that also appeared in the holographic projection on his side and said slowly, "So it's the famous Admiral Trench. Looks like we didn't lose unjustly the last time. And you, Miss Immortal Fox, long time no see. I didn't expect to meet you on the battlefield. "
Obi-Wan looked at Immortal Fox with a complicated gaze. Back when he visited the Guardian planet, Immortal Fox was the person he met the most. He also knew that this cunning woman was Tang Yu's advisor.
"Did you say the same thing to Peacock?" A mocking smile appeared on Immortal Fox's lips. Of course, she knew that Obi-Wan Kenobi had been released by Peacock. Otherwise, with Peacock's strength, Obi-Wan would have had no chance of escaping after being captured. This was also one of the established strategies of the Guardian planet. Fighting was one thing, and it had to be ruthless, but to the few main Jedi Warriors, they had to secretly convey some goodwill.
As expected, upon hearing Peacock's name, Obi-Wan Kenobi's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure, showing his strong and stable mind. He paused for a moment before saying, "As you can see, the Republic is determined to take Planet Kristovsis. I've also brought a large number of reinforcements. Based on the current strength, your previous victories won't happen again. However, I'm willing to give you a chance to retreat with dignity. If you retreat now, we won't stop you. "
Trench was clearly enraged, and his voice grew louder. "You came here on this warship just to say this nonsense to me? Don't tell me you want to talk to the enemy commander about surrender in this situation? You're insulting me! "
"Oh no no no, I'm not. I respect you very much, that's why I want to talk to you …" Obi-Wan Kenobi waved his hands and said seriously.
Immortal Fox retreated from the range of the communicator and said softly to Trench, "He's carefully keeping his warship out of our effective range. At this distance, even if we fire our cannons, it won't have much effect. Furthermore, we can't possibly disrupt our formation to chase after him. So, he's just talking nonsense to us? My conclusion is that he's using this clumsy trick to hide something. "
Trench yelled at Obi-Wan while nodding his head slightly, indicating that he understood.
"Alright, since Obi-Wan wants to talk nonsense, you'll talk nonsense with him. Listen to me carefully. I think it's very likely that he's brought an invisible spaceship to attack our flagship. I remember you saying that you have a way to lock onto a stealth warship? Do your combat robots know of such a method? "
Trench nodded again and began to talk to Obi-Wan Kenobi about the glory of a warrior and why he would never retreat.
Immortal Fox came to the side of the combat robot, only to see the robot with a flat, square-shaped head holding its hands up in a somewhat flattering manner. "General Trench's method is to detect the magnetic field of the universe. Because there is no such thing as absolute stealth, no matter what kind of stealth method is used, there is no way to erase the existence of matter itself. As long as matter exists, it will emit a unique magnetic field. So, as long as the magnetic field is scanned and compared, it won't be difficult to find any abnormal areas … "
Immortal Fox waved his hand. "I don't want to listen to your theory. Use your method to scan the entire battlefield. The enemy might have a stealth warship approaching!" In the original plot, Anakin Skywalker had used a stealth warship to destroy Trench's flagship and break through the defense of the Confederation fleet.
"Yes, sir." The combat robot nodded and bowed. No one knew what the person who programmed this robot was thinking.
On the other side, Obi-Wan Kenobi also sensed that General Trench was also talking nonsense with him. His expression suddenly changed as he scolded. "Looks like you're going to resist to the end! If that's the case, what awaits you is defeat! "
Immediately afterward, 18 Hunter-class cruisers used short-distance hyperspace jumps to suddenly cut into the battlefield, and the formation of these warships was not an offensive formation. At this time, the strangest thing happened. The few warships at the front began to adjust their positions. The entire warships turned to the side, with their abdomens facing forward, and maintained this strange posture as they advanced!
