Chapter 607: The Battle of Christophsis (1)
Hundreds of LR-57 Combat Droids came out, and the Dual Blaster Cannons installed on the arms on both sides opened fire crazily. The Blaster Beams poured down like raindrops. The Christophsian Army faced this sudden attack, and were immediately crushed.
Some of those LR-57s replaced the blaster cannons on both arms with rocket launchers. After a burst of violent rocket bombardment, the few thin-skinned Christophersis tanks that were mainly used to maintain law and order were immediately destroyed by all of them. destroy.
Christophsis has money and even more money, and they have indeed built a large Army, but these Armies that lack training and equipment are completely useless when facing Droids!
Don't look at the fact that Clone Troopers and Droids have a battle loss rate of at least 1:50, but they are Clone Troopers, Super Soldiers who have deep combat awareness into every cell. As for those ordinary people, it is not easy to be able to face the Droid Army.
Think about it, the other party is a Droid with no consciousness, no emotion, copper skin and iron frame, and it will still act even if a hole is opened when you hit it with a Blaster, and they carry more caliber than you and more Droids than you. The Blasters lined up in a dense formation and fired while pressing over, who would dare to resist? I'm afraid they didn't even dare to look up.
You must know that when they are really locked by Droids, their accuracy rate is very high, especially the LR-57 Combat Droids, their can-like bodies are equipped with a very sophisticated Fire Control System, with three sets of Three-Dimensional Sensors, which can instantly lock the target position, and even make certain Advanced Calculations.
There were even some Christophsian Soldiers on the battlefield who didn't hide very well, with a small piece of forehead exposed, but they were shot by LR-57 Combat Droids!
Facing such an enemy, even if they were superior in number, the Christophsian Army would be defeated immediately.
It's not that they can't fight, but they dare not.
For example, in the history of Earth Civilization, if the Cavalry in the Cold Weapon Era were not equipped with Armored Riding Gear, they would actually be unable to rush through the dense Spear Formation of Heavy Infantry. But the problem is that no one dares to stand in front of the charging Cavalry. This is a huge monster with a combined weight of half a ton and a speed of more than 50 kilometers per hour. It is still a group! Therefore, the Infantry often collapsed before fighting, and when the formation dispersed, it naturally became a one-sided massacre.
However, well-trained Infantry with strict Military Discipline can make Cavalry return without success, such as Li Ling, such as Swiss Mercenaries.
Not only that, this LR-57 Combat Droid appeared in almost all Kerkoiden Cities! They broke through the Defense Line of the Christophsian Army all the way, and moved towards the Administrative Center of the City.
The worst thing is yet to come. The Retail Clan has united to publicly accuse the Christophsians of racial discrimination, even genocidal policies, and actively provoke civil war! In order to protect the lives and interests of the Kerkoiden people, they are obliged to uphold justice.
But after the Kerkoidens unilaterally declared to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the nature of the matter changed.
On July 11th, a day that is very meaningful to the Retail Clan, the combined Fleet of the Retail Clan directly sent Troops to surround Christophsis!
Led by the 30 Hiigaran-class Battlecruisers supported by the Corporate Alliance, they destroyed the Orbital Defenses of Christophsis in less than 10 hours and completely blocked Christophsis.
Immediately after the arrival of 12 Lucrehulk-class Battleships, the iconic dragonfly-shaped body of the C-9979 Landing Craft appeared in the Planet's atmosphere, transporting the continuous Army of B-1 Battle Droids.
This time, in order to attack Christophsis, the Corporate Alliance supported the Retail Clan with a full 3 Million B-1 Battle Droids and a large number of Combat Machines, including NR-N99 Persuader-class Droid Tanks, OG-9 Homing Spider Droids, DSD1 Dwarf Spider Droids, and a large number of Armored Assault Tanks.
The locust-like Vulture Droid Starfighters were raging in the sky. They quickly destroyed the Air Force of Christophsis and firmly occupied the Air Supremacy. Under their cover, the C-9979 Landing Craft even directly sent the Droid Army to Crystal City outside the Air Defense circle, about 400 kilometers away from the City!
In order to confuse people, the Retail Clan jointly appointed a Kerkoiden General, Whorm Loathsom, as the General to command the war on Christophsis.
Whorm Loathsom is a very good Commander. After the war started, he has commanded the Army to win consecutive battles in previous battles. Sev'rance Tann is absent due to injury, so he is the first in line.
This time, precisely because of his identity as a Kerkoiden, the Retail Clan specially transferred him back from other fronts to command the Battle of Christophsis, so as to better win the support of those Kerkoidens.
In just one day, the situation took a turn for the worse. Bail Prestor Organa, who was negotiating with the Prime Minister of Christophsis, Marccrai, in the Administrative Hall of Crystal City, tried his best to persuade him to stop the armed suppression and strive for a peaceful solution to the problem, could only see the flames of war being ignited in despair.
From the very beginning, the arrogant Christophsians and the scheming Kerkoidens never thought of a peaceful solution! ! When the Fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems arrived, the Civil War escalated to the height of a war between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
When things have developed to this point, Marccrai, who was still extremely arrogant before, has completely lost his position. The news from the front is getting more and more horrifying. Cities have fallen, and the Separatist Droid Army has even approached 400 kilometers away from Crystal City!
He hugged Bail Organa's shoulders and shouted loudly: "Where's the Army of the Republic? Where's the Army of the Republic?? Come and save me!! The Separatist Droids are coming! They're really coming!!"
Bail Organa sighed. Just a day ago, this guy took the initiative to send Troops to suppress the Kerkoiden riots with great fanfare. You must know that no matter what, the Kerkoidens who can be incited by the Retail Clan are limited after all, and the rioters are mainly Soldiers from Kerkoidia, and they are only in the Millions.
But the arrogance of Marccrai and even the entirety of Christophsis really pushed the nearly 4 Billion Kerkoidens on the Planet to the opposite of the Republic. The Separatists came prepared this time. An Army of 3 Million Droids is not scary, but If the 4 Billion Kerkoidens are added, the situation will be really dangerous!
Christophsis is really facing the crisis of being captured!!
