Chapter 2155 Meaningless Battle
2155. Pointless Fighting
On the planet Christofsis, teams of clone troopers marched into the city in a neat formation. On the side of the road, you can also see a large number of forklifts and engineering vehicles cleaning up the piles of robot wreckage. Most of these robots are made by T-2 combat robots, Guardian Planet.
Obi-Wan Kenobi stood on an incomplete tall building, looking ahead. It can be clearly seen that four extremely huge spherical spaceships are soaring into the sky. This is the core spaceship in the center of the Ruklihook-class battleship of the Federation of Independent Star Systems, and it is also the carrier module used by this battleship to land. Now the Republic's fleet can't stop them from leaving.
The Confederacy's legion retreated, and they once reached Chaldonia, the capital of Christofsis, and captured the important town of Torfin. But after the Republic Army came to support them, they adjusted their strategy and began to rely on the cities they had previously occupied to start brutal street battles with the Republic Army.
In terms of the strength of the space fleets of both parties, although the Republic fleet is stronger, it cannot eat up the Confederate fleet in one go. Under the leadership of Admiral Trench, the Confederacy's fleet relied on Christopher's satellite Lysis for defense, and since then four Rookie Hook-class battleships have been added to transport troops and provide fire support. In this way, the battle became a war of attrition to refuel.
In order to win this battle, the Army of the Republic recruited a large number of local troops from Planet Christopher to assist the Clone Legion in fighting, and these local legions suffered heavy losses. Because what they are facing is the army of mechanical life that protects the planet! Obi-Wan Kenobi is already very familiar with this kind of robot, they are smarter, not only invulnerable as a whole, but even have different personalities, and can react most flexibly to the battlefield situation!
Finally, after three months of fierce fighting, the Republic finally occupied the last city captured by the Confederacy, declaring victory in the Battle of Christofsis.
But is it really a victory? Obi-Wan Kenobi touched his long beard that had not been trimmed for a long time, and his face was serious.
"Victory is still far away, Master Kenobi." A first-born Jedi Master with two horns, Sass-Tin, came from the side. He came to support Obi-Wan Kenobi after Anakin Skywalker was transferred.
"It's not a victory...it's a defeat. Master Ting...the Separatists are retreating because this battlefield is useless...over 30,000 clone troopers have been devoured here, along with the lives of millions of native legions , but all of this...is meaningless..." Obi-Wan Kenobi said with a long sigh.
Suss-Ting also raised his head and looked at the spherical spaceship flying high into the sky in the distance, silent.
A forklift shovels the ground,
Immediately, the wreckage of dozens of robots was shoveled up together with the dirt and rubble, and then drove to the square next to it, and the wreckage was poured down. The plaza, which was originally a beautiful living square dotted with beautiful blue crystal trees, is now a dumping ground for these robots.
With the help of some local laborers, hundreds of technicians are roughly sorting out the wreckage of these robots, to see if they can find something of research value. This will allow them to find something different about the terrifying robots - why are they so smart? Also, why is there not even a byte of data in the wreckage recovered each time? !
An engineer picked up the head of a T-2 combat robot from the ground, and some wires were still connected to the head, but the robot's chest was blown to pieces. He looked at the head, shook his head in disappointment, and said to the laborer pulling the trolley next to him: "It's useless, it's still a blank robot... Forget it, take it back, this head is still complete, at least you can study them chip structure." After speaking, he casually threw the head into the trolley.
"Hey!! Come here!! There is a 'living' robot here!!!" Suddenly a worker next to him yelled loudly. Without saying a word, the engineer ran over there, and the people around who heard the sound did the same.
They ran to where the laborer was, and sure enough, it was the wreckage of a large robot. This kind of robot is also very familiar to everyone present. It is about 5 meters tall and has a small body. Four rapid-fire guns are installed on the huge hangers on its arms, and there are two missile launchers on its back. It looks like it has six hands. They also know that this kind of robot is called a war loader, and it is a tactical fire support unit used by the robot legion of the guardian planet on the front line. The offensive of those robot legions often started with a burst of indiscriminate bombing by war loaders.
And most importantly, this robot is not in the state where the data is instantly cleared! Its sensors glow red, making it look like a single red eye is looking around.
A moment later, Obi-Wan Kenobi came to a temporarily cleared laboratory according to the report. Of course, it would not be an exaggeration to call it a garbage dump, because the remains of robots were piled up everywhere. This war loader is hung on a gantry frame, and the redundant parts on it have been removed, except that the cable under the head is connected to a temporary power supply device.
【You are the commander here. ] The robot said that the voice was flat, and the electronically synthesized voice carried some low-frequency vibrato, which made people shudder.
"Yes, my name is Obi-Wan Kenobi. Who are you?" Obi-Wan asked.
[You can call me SSR. ] The robot answered.
"Okay then, SSR. Your companions seem to have cleared their data, but why didn't you?" Obi-Wan asked.
[We have not cleared the data. We just return. We will still return when necessary. ] SSR replied.
return? Advent? Obi-Wan firmly remembered these two keywords, and then continued to ask: "Then why didn't you return?"
[I want to come and have a look. 】
"Look at what?" Obi-Wan frowned.
[Anything is fine. I want to see the other side of the war. ] SSR said.
"Then you're not worried that we'll take you apart and get all your data?" Obi-Wan asked.
[I'm not worried. For under the power of the great Mechanic God, I can return at any time. You, can't stop it. 】SSR said, it scanned Obi-Wan up and down with its mechanical one-eye, and continued: 【In return, I can answer your questions within my authority. 】
Obi-Wan wanted to say something else, but a clone officer walked by. He stood at attention and saluted, "General Kenobi, urgent call from Coruscant, please reply immediately."
Of course Obi-Wan knew what this order was, he sighed, "Has it finally come?"
Then he pointed to the SSR and said, "Take it away, remember, it's very important, don't damage anything."
"Yes!" The clone officer replied loudly, and immediately began to direct the surrounding technicians to carefully remove the SSR from the gantry and pack it up.
