766. Jabiem’s Finale (Part 1)
On the planet Jabim, the battle broke out on the 34th day.
The heavy rain continued, and even with the physical fitness of the clone soldiers, there were many cases of fever, colds, and even pimples and blisters, which seriously affected their combat effectiveness.
In an advanced camp of the Republic Army, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and several Jedi Knights were patrolling the barracks.
In the pouring rain, everything was so irritating. More than a dozen logistics soldiers are using high-pressure water spray guns to wash away the mechanical legs of the AT-TE walker that are completely covered in mud and can hardly move.
Several clone soldiers took off their combat armors, poured out the rainwater accumulated in them, and then took off their inner linings to wring them out, revealing their soaked, white and wrinkled skin, as well as the white Deep wounds.
Seeing that one of the injured soldiers was about to put his clothes and armor back on, Anakin stopped him and said, "Soldier, the wounds on your body are already showing symptoms of inflammation and suppuration. You need to go to the medical unit for treatment as soon as possible."
"No problem, General Anakin, I've already been injected with antibiotics." the soldier replied.
"Then it is obvious that these antibiotics that have been exposed to rain and moisture for a long time have not had the desired effect. Go find Aubrey. She has received the guidance of Master Windu and is an excellent Force healer." Anakin said.
The soldier shook his head, "General Aubrey is very tired, and there are people who are much more seriously injured than me waiting for her treatment."
"Go soldier, this is her duty, and there are Jedi apprentices who have learned medical skills to help her." Obi-Wan Kenobi said.
"Yes, I'll go right away." The soldier no longer insisted and nodded in agreement.
A clone commander with blue shoulder pads on his armor said in a deep voice: "With all due respect, General, as the battle has progressed so far, we have lost the possibility of winning in a short time. We should start again." Consider the options I mentioned before..."
"Killing doesn't solve the problem, Alpha-17. If we carry out assassinations on high-ranking rebels, then our reputation on the planet Jabim will completely collapse. By then, maybe we will have to kill half the people on the planet. ——And maybe it won't end the war." Obi-Wan Kenobi shook his head.
Alpha-17 was the first clone commander produced on the planet Kamino. And among these clones, the ones with the best training results and the strongest combat capabilities formed the ARC force, and Alpha-17 was the best among them, both in terms of qualifications and ability.
"I also think we should consider this plan. According to what I know about Alto Stratus, his firm and resolute personality has infected every one of his followers. Now only death can stop them." Jia Oris Gilman, the commander of the Bim Planet government forces, said from the side.
Anakin Skywalker was already in a irritable mood. When he heard this, he sneered coldly: "Are you teaching us Jedi Knights to do things? Mr. Commander. We are Jedi Knights, the guardians of the Galactic Republic. We have Our own code of conduct! Killing innocent people indiscriminately has never been our method!"
"But Alto Stratus is not innocent, and he will be sentenced to the harshest penalty in any court." Ollis Gilman continued.
"Enough!" Anakin roared.
"Anakin!!" Obi-Wan Kenobi shouted immediately.
Anakin lowered his head and shook his head, "I'm back to the camp. I need to prepare for the counterattack in the afternoon."
After saying that, he walked away.
"You are reasonable, but the separatists will not. As I said, only death can stop them." Gilman sighed, turned and left.
"I agree with his opinion. Those separatists, we will kill them sooner or later." Alpha-17 said from the side.
Obi-Wan Kenobi's face darkened, "Say something meaningful, Alpha. Otherwise, I will transfer you to the logistics department to be responsible for flushing the sludge."
"Then why don't you just kill me." Alpha-17 said, pressing the button on the holographic battlefield map. "Let's talk about the battle plan."
Unexpectedly, after the holographic battlefield map was opened, there was a lot of interference on the screen. Alpha-17 slapped the projector hard, and water actually swung out of the projector. Then the holographic map completely shut down and there was no screen.
Alpha-17 was extremely annoyed and kicked the projector aside, causing a large amount of rainwater to gush out from the machine. Fortunately, he was still prepared. He took out a map made of waterproof material and spread it on the table. He pointed at the dense markings on the map and said: "According to our latest news, Alto Stratus is on the Razor Coast." Set up camp. This is his third location in the past 10 days."
At this time, the tent was opened, and Jedi Master Cyrus walked in and said, "Are you discussing the next phase of operations? I hope I didn't miss anything."
"Alto Stratus is on the Razor Coast," Obi-Wan said.
"Is the news confirmed?" Cyrus asked.
"The news is certain, but I'm not sure whether he will escape, just like the previous two times." Alpha-17 said.
Master Cyrus glanced at the holographic projector lying in the corner, came to the map, looked at it, and said: "Now we are one day away from the base camp Cobalt camp, and if this distance allows the AT-TE to travel in the mud, If we struggle inside, it may take 3 to 4 days. I think this is our limit. If we cannot catch Alto Stratus this time, we must retreat. The tragedy of Master Nocuna, It cannot be repeated."
"Then let's start the general attack this afternoon. I can't stand being rained on in this place anymore." Alpha-17 said.
But they couldn't wait until the afternoon.
Several missiles launched from the IG-227 Fire Hail combat machinery fell into the camp of the Republic Army, kicking off the Jabiem National Army's counterattack!
A large number of B-1 combat robots emerged from the rain curtain and launched an attack on the Republic's army! After these B-1 combat robots attracted a large amount of firepower from the Republic Army, the more elite A-series combat robots and their agile posture burst into the battlefield!
Not only that, jackals armed with sniper rifles and carrying energy shield generators on their backs also mingled among the robot legions, firing deadly bullets at Republic soldiers.
The army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems used all their heavy equipment. Large combat robots such as the OG-9 Nest Spider Robot, IG-227 Fire Hail combat machine poured their extremely powerful firepower towards the clone trooper positions.
