Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

Chapter 643: Complicated and Confusing

Chapter 643: Complicated and Confusing

"The "Shovel" is Christophsis! Star Map! Quick!" Colonel Lott said loudly, "Also, please confirm the source of information! Where is the updated Decrypted Information in the Database? Send a receipt immediately!"

The Intelligence Department suddenly became busy. Someone sent a communication to inquire about the source of the information, and someone replaced the countless Intelligence Records on the Holographic Projection with a Huge Star Map.

The computer quickly came to a conclusion, and Colonel Lott was sweating profusely, "Damn, they do have this possibility! If the Separatist Fleet departed from Bespin, they could sail in the opposite direction along the Corellian Trade Spine. If you do this, you can cross the Neutral Area and enter the Mustafar System. Afterwards, if you take the Hydian Way from Mustafar, you can bypass the 18th Army Defense Line of Governor Wilhuff Tarkin and directly enter the Separatist Area of ??Control!"

He constantly manipulated the computer and issued simulation instructions. The computer simulated thousands of action routes and finally listed the most likely ones. Colonel Lott looked at the complicated Hyperspace Lanes on the Star Map and said: "If it is the most threatening, If necessary, they can pass through the branch line of the Kessel Run from here, threatening Naboo and Enarc. If we cannot block these Hyperspace Lanes with Hyperspace Blockers here, the Separatist Fleet can break through our blockade and enter the Christophsis System from another direction!"

"But it's unlikely, right? A raid that spanned almost half of the Galaxy?" An Intelligence Officer was a little puzzled.

"There is definitely a possibility." Colonel Lott mused, "Now the battle on Christophsis has reached a fever pitch, and the Separatist Main Fleet in that direction is intercepting our reinforcements in the Falleen System and their closest War Zone was also held back by Governor Tarkin of the 18th Army, and reinforcements from other directions would not be able to arrive because the Hutts closed the border to Hutt Space... Then if the Fleet of Bespin can raid Christophsis, it would be an Elite Army! There is no doubt about it!"

Another Intelligence Agent came over and said: "The Source of the Intelligence has been confirmed, it is from the Republic Intelligence Headquarters on Coruscant."

"What about the credibility rating?"

"There is no marked level, but this is the pronunciation method learned from the mouth of a Construction Worker on Dawn. It seems to be a unique pronunciation form of their native land. Several syllables are blended together for fuzzy pronunciation, so we were unable to compare them before."

Colonel Lott's expression turned ugly. If the information marked was very credible, he might have doubts, but now, he kicked the ball directly to himself.

According to Conventional Calculations, a Fleet needs to prepare and set off, counting the time for Loading Supplies, Soldiers, Equipment, etc., at most no more than three days, that is to say, even if he now understands the movement of this Separatist Fleet, they will only have two days to prepare.

If the Bespin Fleet is allowed to slip away and their 19th Army does nothing, then this is also a serious dereliction of duty...

As an Intelligence Officer, he must make a decision and then feed the decision back to Governor Sulamar.

"What is the current number of Separatist Fleets near Bespin?" Colonel Lott asked.

"The number of the Separatist Fleet near Bespin is Fleet A. According to the intelligence, the Commander is Admiral Matt Horner. According to the information brought by our Intelligence Agents last time, they currently have 45 Kol-class Battlecruisers, 10 Sova-class Carriers, and 6 Hiigaran-class Battlecruisers. There should also be many Small Auxiliary Battleships, but the number of these cannot be counted." The Intelligence Officer said: "In the past month or so, Our Hyperspace Detection Station did not detect too many Capital Warship Transfers, the total number was only 12, so this number should be relatively close."

Colonel Lott nodded, "We now know that Dawn has two Admirals. Matt Horner showed a very calm Command Style in the previous Battle of Bespin, while Sev'rance Tann led an Army to raid Sarapin in the Core Worlds, causing Power Outages on many Planets in the Core Worlds. Her Command Style is cunning, changeable, and she is full of aggressiveness. At present, her Fleet B is between Noe'ha'on and our Defense Line of Kinyen, facing off..."

He clicked a few times on the Star Map, "I think the main purpose of Dawn's deployment of Fleet A on Bespin is to keep the right to use the Corellian Trade Spine, the Main Hyperspace Lane, so as to facilitate the mobilization of large Large-Scale Fleets. It can be seen from the fact that the Commander here is Matt Horner, their deployment is based on Security. Previous Intelligence also shows that they are building a very Large-Scale Armed Space Station orbiting Bespin... So I believe that their move is indeed freeing up the Fleet here to launch an attack on the premise of ensuring the safety of Bespin!"

"That is to say, we can confirm that the attack direction of the Separatist Fleet is Christophsis?" the Intelligence Officer asked.

"It's not a decision, it's a choice and judgment. Report this news to Governor Sulamar. Inform him of the possible hidden conspiracy on Bespin, and we must do our best to determine the purpose of the Separatists!" Lott said.

...

At this time, in the Capital of the 19th Army on Javin, [Note 1:] Governor Sulamar was looking at the Holographic Projection with a livid face. Inside, an Old Woman in a fine dress was speaking worriedly, "...now the political trend of Coruscant is a bit subtle. After the series of failures of the Republic, a scapegoat must be launched to take responsibility... In yesterday's meeting, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine clearly stated that he would support the Jedi Orders position."

She sighed and then said: "So now some people in the Senate are starting to blow the wind, mainly for the failure of the previous Battle of Bespin and the failure of the Battle of Geonosis... The Battle of Geonosis was attributed by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and the sudden action of the Separatists made it too late for us to deploy, so the failure of the Battle of Bespin as a counterattack that received widespread attention on Coruscant was very conspicuous..."

Boom! The cane in Sulamar's hand hit the ground with a muffled sound, "Bastards! Why are you staring at me all the time?! Didn't Byluir, the Governor of the 13th Army, lose his Troops on Falleen?!"

"Governor Byluir is still worrying about the War on Christophsis, and the 17th Army is also reinforcing in this direction. At this time, it is naturally impossible to move him." The Old Woman said.

"Where did this news come from?" Sulamar asked in a deep voice.

"This kind of thing can't be traced to the root, but as far as I know, at least a dozen Senators have talked about it in private... The main reason is that Supreme Chancellor Palpatine decided to launch a counterattack again, you know, Kuat Drive Yards has been fully mobilised, and to boast, we have added nearly 100 Venators to our Mobile Fleet. But before the counterattack begins, I think it is very possible to liquidate previous failures to boost morale."

A Subspace Transceiver sounded, and Sulamar looked at the information displayed on it, and his face became more and more gloomy.
