Chapter 521: The Battle of Geonosis (9)
Surrounded by Droids, the Jedi Knights headed by Master Windu could only hold on. Although they succeeded in rescuing Obi-Wan and Anakin, they paid a higher price and wanted to capture Count Dooku and end the war directly. The war has become nonsense.
Master Windu tried several times to lead the team out but surrounded by 200,000 Droids, there was no way at all.
Although they killed Thousands of Droids, it was of no avail. The Jedi Knights under them continued to die, and now there are only more than fifty people left. However, even so, they are still fighting bravely, not retreating a step.
Seeing this scene, Count Dooku couldn't help thinking of his past, the scenes that happened when he was still in the Jedi Order, and they fought so bravely in various places in the Galaxy and the most recent one he participated in was the Battle of Galidraan and the war between the Mandalorians.
A trace of unbearableness flashed in his eyes, and he raised his hand to stop the Droid Army from attacking.
All the Droid Armies stopped advancing immediately, the B-2 Super Battle Droid retracted the right arm with the Blasters installed on its chest, the heat dissipation system started to work, and a trace of mist was emitted from the arm.
Seeing this, all Jedi Knights seized the opportunity to self-adjust their breath and restore their state to some extent.
"Surrender! Mace Windu! Your Fleet has been destroyed and there is no way out! You don't need to work for the rotten Republic anymore, you can do more!" Count Dooku stood at the guest table and said loudly.
"I'm not like you, Dooku. I will never betray the Republic!" Master Windu said firmly.
"If that's the case, then go die." Count Dooku waved his hand again, and the Army of Droids began to approach again, but he turned and left. At this moment, dozens of LAAT/I's descended from the sky, and powerful firepower instantly poured into the Army of Droids in the arena! The Spherical Turrets on both sides of the LAAT/I's emitted powerful Laser Beams across the ground. Wherever the beams passed, all the robots were destroyed!
Although the Fleet suffered a tragic blow, the Army of the Republic still firmly holds the air supremacy on the surface of Geonosis.
The Droid Army on the ground immediately turned their Blasters and fired towards the sky, while a large number of Clone Soldiers carried in the LAATs jumped off one after another, establishing a temporary position. They are well-coordinated and well-trained, and they actually blocked the attacks of Droids ten times their size.
Master Yoda came to Master Windu and said solemnly: "Failed, the battle in space. We must stick to it and wait for help, on Geonosis."
Master Windu didn't say much, just nodded.
The Jedi Knights boarded the LAAT/I one after another took off and retreated.
Meebur Gascon, the Tactical Advisor of the Republic who commanded the Fleet, sent another communication, "Master Yoda, the remaining three Warships in space, the Liya, the Borg and the Valiant, have been destroyed... me... what should we do?"
"Rushing out of the Planet's atmosphere will only lead to a head-on blow. Now our only option is to continue to attack on the ground, try to capture the main lair of the Geonosians, cut off their connection between the ground and space, and then wait for the support of the Republic." Master Windu said.
Master Yoda nodded in agreement.
Master Windu looked at the Clone Commander beside him and asked, "How many of those Delta Fighters that landed when we came here before can we get back?"
"We have already occupied that area, and recovered a total of 83 Fighters, 15 of which can be used immediately, and the rest need to be returned to the Shipyard for a certain degree of maintenance." The Clone Commander replied.
"Put those Fighters on standby as soon as possible, we need all the power now." Master Windu turned his head and said to the person beside him: "Master Adi Gallia, you lead a team of Jedi Knights, fly the Fighters, and take out the Sabaoth Squadron over there first!"
"I will immediately dispatch 3 Acclamators and all the squadrons to help." Meebur Gascon said in the communication.
Just as they were arranging their tactics, a sudden change occurred!
More than a dozen Huge Beams of Light descended from the sky and fell to the ground with the power of death. The place hit by it was instantly covered in flames. The super high temperature ignited the air, and under the violent expansion, a terrible gust of wind was formed, spreading the flames in all directions.
Whether it was Clone Soldiers or various Armored Vehicles within the range, they were all wiped out!
The 13 Acclamator-class Assault Ships in the sky were the first to bear the brunt. Most of the Lasers fell on these Battleships. The Deflector Shields of the Battleships were burned one by one, and a harsh siren sounded from the bridge console.
The huge Light Beams are still falling, and even the clouds in the sky are ignited and dispersed, and even a starry sky can be seen! The destruction of the Planet's atmosphere by Orbital Bombardment is very obvious.
"The Separatist Fleet is conducting Orbital Bombardment! All ships, concentrate the Shield Energy on the top!" Meebur Gascon was terrified and ordered loudly, and he said to the communication: "Master Yoda, Master Windu! This way It's impossible to go down! We can only be beaten like this, and there is no possibility of fighting back!!"
"Continue to resist, the Main Lair of Geonosis must be captured! This is their own Planet, they cannot allow the Orbital Bombardment to continue like this!" Master Windu said firmly.
What he said was right. At this moment, on the screen in front of Sev'rance Tann, the Archduke of Geonosis, Poggle, was yelling angrily: "Are you crazy?! This is my Planet!! How dare you carry out Orbital Bombardment on my Planet!! I will sue you in a court-martial!!"
Tann sneered, "If it wasn't for your incompetence and cowardice, would I have to support you from space? Why don't you tell me how you plan to defend your Main Headquarters under the attack of 200,000 Troops?"
"You don't need to control my Planet! But if you dare to shoot another shot at Geonosis now, I swear I will never end with you!!" Poggle roared.
"So what if I shoot you again, this dirty lump of dirt? Do you want to kill me? I'm right here, waiting anytime." Sev'rance Tann sneered.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
At this time, Count Dooku's communication cut in, and he said solemnly: "Stop the Orbital Bombardment, I have already told Governor Tang Xiao about this, he is coming by Shuttle. The loading of the Droid Army has been completed, bring the distribution for your 800,000 Droid Army, return to your own theater first, and prepare for the next general attack."
Sev'rance Tann snorted, but stopped talking.
