Chapter 669: The Battle of Christophsis (Final)


    Gctic Standard Time, 22BBY, August 12th at 9:00 PM, Chaleydonia, the Capital Crystal City of Christophsis.


    Under the Desperate Eyes of Countless Pairs of Christophsians, the Clone Troopers re-boarded the Acmator-ss Assault Ships, preparing to evacuate.


    Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano escorted the General of the Confederacy of Independent Systems Army, and Whorm Loathsom walked slowly onto a Shuttle, silent all the way, only Whorm Loathsom still muttering and begging Anakin to let him go.


    But neither Anakin nor Ahsoka paid him any attention.


    They seeded and finallyunched a deadly raid, sessfully captured the Commander of the Ground Battlefield on Christophsis, Whorm Loathsom, and forced him to stop the Droid Army.


    However, they also failed. The Army of the Republic suffered a Crushing Defeat on Christophsis, even if they captured Whorm Loathsom, it would not help.


    Now that the Battle has been fought, a lot of Information on both sides has been made transparent. The Commanders of the Separatists are Admiral Trench and the notorious Sev''rance Tann!


    ording to the Republic''s intelligence on Tann, a mere Whorm Loathsom is not enough to stop her. Once she finds out and takes over the Command of the Army, the Droid Army will be even more terrifying and fierce! The Offensive would tear the Republic Army to pieces!


    Thest thing Anakin and the others can do is to evacuate as soon as possible before Sev''rance Tann reacts.


    The Shuttle flew into the Acmator-ss Hangar, and several Clone Troopers came over and took Whorm Loathsom away and put him in a cell. Anakin took a deep breath, his eyes full of fatigue.


    "Master..." Ahsoka Tano came behind Anakin, lowered her head, crossed her hands, and even the Lekku on her head drooped. In fact, if this wasn''t a battlefield, or in the Army, maybe she would have cried aloud!


    This cannot be med on her, after all, when she stepped onto the Battlefield for the first time, she faced such a Horrific Battle, a Battle where she was restrained everywhere andpletely defeated!


    "Get on the Shuttle and get ready to fight." Anakin said nkly, "There is...another Hell waiting for us."


    The Acmator-ss Assault Ships increased its Thrusters Output, broke free from the shackles of Christophsis''s Gravity, rushed out of the atmosphere, and came to... that other Hell!


    In the Space Orbit near the equator of the, the Fierce Battle has been going on for a long time! Fragments and Parts of Battleships are everywhere, and the Iplete Wreckage of more than a dozen Venator-ss Star Destroyers and Munificent-ss Frigates are Floating in Space, and Explosions Explode from the Wreckage from time to time.


    In Space, the remaining Battleships of both sides are still fighting frantically! Turbser Turrets and Missiles are like a huge covering the battlefield.


    There are only 7 Venator-ss Star Destroyers left in the Republic Fleet. Most of these Battleships have suffered Serious Damage, and there is even a Battleship that has tilted over, which shows that the Gravity Stabilization System of the Warship has been damaged.


    But even so, these Battleships are still fighting desperately, not retreating a step!


    Not only the Battleships, but the remaining Starfighter Formations of the Republic are also fighting with theirst strength! The Number of Starfighters still fighting is less than 1,000 but they are looking for every gap on the Battlefield full of Deadly Radiation Clouds to attack.


    They can''t retreat, because once they retreat, the Clone Troopers on the ground will only die! As the Navy of the Republic, the Republic allows them to sit among the most Powerful Warships, so they don''t have to go to the Frontline, braving the rain of sters, Fire and Smoke, but at the same time, they must also shoulder their responsibilities.


    The Fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems is bombarding the opposite side, but it is a little tired. The main reason is the limitations of the Behemoth-ss Battlecruisers and Marza-ss Heavy Missile Cruisers in this Long-Term War of Attrition.


    Sev''rance Tann also understood this point, so she rushed forward, relying on the Marza-ss Heavy Missile Cruisers Missile Salvos to Severely Damage the Republic''s Starfighter Formation, and give her own side an inconspicuous advantage.


    Although the cost of a Venator-ss Star Destroyer does not seem high, in fact, if you add Carrier-Based Aircraft and Pilots who need at least several Months of Training, the cost of a lost Venator-ss Star Destroyer is at least doubled.


    The Republic Fleet has 20 Venator-ss Star Destroyers. If Starfighters are counted, the Combat Capability is actually much higher than other Warships of the same number.


    But still can''t stop this Fleet from going down!


    The Acmator-ss Assault Ships that took off from Christophsis and returned to Outer Space, stepped into such a Hell!


    More than 100,000 Soldiers in the Republic Fleet have died in this Hell! These 100,000 corpses are floating in the Cold Space, scattered among the Wreckage of Parts all over the sky, drawing blood one after another for these terrible Battle Stained Marks.


    Anakin Skywalker closed his eyes, took another deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, there was even a hint of Killing Intent, "Starfighter Squadron, attack!"


    The Delta-7 Starfighters rushed out of the Acmator-ss Hangar tform like lightning, followed by Ahsoka Tano, and they threw themselves into this Desperate Battle without hesitation!


    One after another, the Acmators broke free from the Gravity of Christophsis and rose into Outer Space. However, when the Fourth Acmator came up, there was no response from the, and the remaining Three Acmators never had a chance to escape.


    Anakin Skywalker drove his Delta-7 Starfighter to face the Swarming Vulture Droid Starfighters. He expanded his Force to the maximum, and countless Complicated Trajectories passed through his Predictions! The Operation of each Enemy Starfighter, he saw their direction in his eyes and reacted in advance.


    "General, we must retreat! No one else cane up from Christophsis..." Wullf Yren''s voice came from the earphone.


    Anakin Skywalker took onest look at this Emerald Green Crystal, without saying a word, turned around and flew to the gship of the Fleet, the Negotiator, Venator-ss Star Destroyer.


    When they came to the Bridge, Admiral Wullf Yren came over and said: "During the previous Battle, General Kenobi flew his Starfighter repeatedly, butter the Starfighter was hit by an Enemy Warship. Fortunately, he tried his best to fly the Starfighter away and came back, but was still Seriously Injured and is being treated in the Medical Bay."


    "Retreat... Where is the Retreat Route?" Anakin could barely straighten his tongue when he spoke, Extreme Exhaustion, Pain, and Self-me tormented his heart.


    "All the Hyperspace Lanes have been blocked. Our only way out is to return to Tatooine, and then leave through the Hutt Space. I will admit it, only hope that the Hutts will return the favor you gave to save Gardu." Wullf Yren said with a sigh.


    The Warships of the Republic began to retreat towards the periphery of the Gravitational Well. After they left 2 more Severely Damaged Warships, more than 500 Starfighter Pilots stayed behind voluntarily.


    Under the Reflection of Turbsers and Missiles, White Light began to flicker, and the remaining 5 Venator-ss Star Destroyers and 4 Acmator-ss Assault Ships of the Republic Fleet entered into Hyperspace and retreated in a panic from Christophsis.
