Seeing the Republic warships being destroyed one after another, followed by the AA-9 transport ships, Tang Yu felt it was a pity. Putting aside the massive amount of resources carried by these transport ships, if they could just drag the warships back and repair their electronic systems, they would be able to fight again in a month at most.
But this was impossible. No matter how powerful the Poison Fang battleship was, it had its limits. Therefore, every time they carried out a raid, they had to be fast. This way, they could leave the battlefield as soon as possible before the Republic's large-scale fleet arrived to support them. And to ensure absolute secrecy, every raid by the Poison Fang could not leave any survivors!
In the month that the Poison Fang had been active, just the number of people on the warships and transport ships that they had destroyed had reached hundreds of thousands! These people, without exception, had all perished in the cold deep space when the ships exploded.
General Grievous turned on the communicator, and Count Dooku's image appeared. He reported, "We've destroyed the Republic's escort fleet again! The trade lifeline of the Republic is in danger! Count Dooku. "
"Well done, General Grievous. And you, Your Excellency Tang Yu. According to our sources, the Republic's fleet will come to support us in five hours. You must leave as soon as possible! "Count Dooku said with satisfaction.
Count Dooku had only been on the warship for three days at the start of the battle. After that, he left alone because he still had many things to do. Tang Yu did not leave. He told Dooku and Grievous that he wanted to see the power of the Poison Fang battleship, but in reality, he wanted to stay on it and be ready to rescue this super warship that would crash according to the plot at any time.
"Hahahaha! After we kill everyone here, we'll leave immediately! "General Grievous said proudly.
After the communication was cut, Tang Yu thought for a moment and said to General Grievous, "Out of the hundreds of battlefields between us and the Republic, it seems that only planet Kristofsith has turned into a protracted war. I think we can go to the Corellian hyperspace channel there. If we can intercept a few Republic supply fleets, we'll make a killing. "
"That's what I wanted to say, Tang Yu! But the second wave of reinforcements hasn't arrived yet. We need to return to the Hutt Dimension first, then take a detour to Mon Carra to resupply! After that, let's completely cut off the supply lines of the Republic and let Kristovsis' army starve to death! "General Grievous clenched his metal fist and waved it fiercely.
…
The capital of the Galactic Republic, Coruscant, the Jedi Temple.
The twelve highest members of the Jedi Council sat in a circle on the top floor of the central tower of the Holy Sanctum. From the viewing windows around them, they could see the panoramic view of Coruscant. However, there were only seven members of the Jedi Council present, including Master Yoda and Master Wendu. The other five were out on combat missions and participating in the meeting through holographic communication.
"I'm sure that I've discovered a Separatist foundry on Planet Hypori." In the middle of the conference room, a holographic projection of a bearded middle-aged Jedi Knight wearing a Jedi cloak was reporting to the Jedi Council.
"Do you have proof? Master Duckman Barrick, "Master Mace Wendu asked with a frown.
"I've discovered traces of Geonosians' activities on this planet. There are at least three large nests built underground, and there are many spaceships transporting raw materials landing and taking off near the nests. The Geonosians usually don't leave their planet. The discovery of their nests on Hypori can only mean one thing — the Separatists have migrated a portion of the Geonosians to Hypori, "Master Barrick replied.
Master Wendu rubbed his beardless chin and said in a deep voice, "The Geonosians aren't very strong in combat, nor are they very creative. However, they are excellent builders. It seems that the only reason they've migrated a portion of the Geonosians to Hypori is to build a robot factory. "
"After we defeated the Separatist fleet on Planet Geonosis, their forces there were destroyed, but they have no intention of rebuilding. So, they're hiding in Hypori …" Master Pulokon, one of the members of the Jedi Council, said.
"The robot factory in Hypori must be destroyed," Master Yoda said.
"However, we don't have too many troops that we can use. The battle on Planet Kristovsis has already pinned down three of our armies. Unless we mobilize the troops that we originally planned to use to launch an attack … "Master Wendu shook his head.
"We can't change our plan." Master Yoda shook his head.
"I think I can bring a newly matured and trained clone army from Camino to launch an attack on Hypori. However, I wonder how many troops are defending Hypori?" At this time, Master Shak-Ti, a member of the Jedi Council who participated in the meeting through the holographic communication, said.
"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I didn't sneak into the factory. However, based on the size of the transport ships that take off and land, the robot factory in Hypori can only produce about 1,000 units per day, and the distribution of weapons shouldn't be 100%, "Duckman Barrick replied.
"If that's the case, the 5,000 clone troops I brought from Camino should be enough. What do you think? "Shak-Ti turned to look at Wendu and Yoda.
"Participate in this operation, Ki-Adi-Mundi." Master Yoda turned his head and said to a Celian Jedi Master with a conical skull, Gi-Adi-Mundi.
"Alright, the battle in the Lyana Star System is coming to an end. Our Republic's army has begun to gain the upper hand. My disciple should be able to handle the rest. I'll head to Camino and meet up with Master Shak-Ti now, "Ki-Adi-Mundi nodded and said.
"Alright, I'll continue to hide on Hypori and wait for your next move." Duckman Barrick nodded and disconnected the communication.
Master Wendu thought for a moment, then turned to Master Yoda who was sitting beside him and said, "Although we can't leave Hypori alone, our main threat now isn't in this direction. Judging from the situation on Planet Kristovsis, the separatists are using a brand new robot model in large quantities. Their combat power has completely surpassed the B-1 robot. If this kind of robot reaches widespread use, it'll be a devastating blow to our frontline battle. "
Master Yoda let out a long sigh and said, "Guardian planet …"
"In addition, the separatists colluded with the galactic pirates. Later on, they even got the navy to participate and launch unlimited attacks. Such shameless behavior must be stopped! The most important thing now is that they have a secret weapon that's attacking our transport ships everywhere. Even if we send the escort fleet, it won't be of any use. The transport ships that are attacked can't even send back a complete message! "Master Pulokong said.
"The shadow of failure will shroud us. If we don't solve these two problems," Master Yoda's gaze suddenly became extremely sharp. "Take the initiative to attack! We must. "
