Chapter 2156 Stalemate

2156. stalemate

Coruscant's order did not surprise Obi-Wan Kenobi at all, to withdraw the troops.

For publicity on Coruscant, this was a great victory. After three months of bloody battles, the soldiers of the Great Republic finally repelled the separatist forces that invaded the Christofsis planet, dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of the separatists, and destroyed their entire legion of robots. They will not be able to organize another such offensive in the short term.

But in fact, Obi-Wan understands that when he leaves this time, he probably won't return to the planet Christophsis for a long time, together with the forces of the Republic... Since the recent period, those local troops have kept them at a respectful distance. You can also understand this from the numb eyes in the eyes of those common people...

Galactic Republic, battles won, strategy lost...

A week later, Obi-Wan Kenobi boarded the spaceship and embarked on the return journey back to Coruscant.

On the flagship of a Jaeger-class cruiser, Obi-Wan Kenobi went through numerous security measures and came to a secret laboratory in the deepest part. A small gantry is erected here, with the head of the ssr and a temporary power supply hanging on it.

Seeing Obi-Wan's arrival, ssr's electronic eyes moved, looked at him and said: 【You didn't keep your promise, I can't see anything here. 】

Obi-Wan sneered, "Do I need to keep my promise to an enemy?"

[Belongs to the boring wariness of human beings, human beings will always try to use language to cause abnormal dopamine secretion in other similar people, so as to gain the advantage you think. But that means nothing to our conversation. ] ssr said lightly.

"Don't forget that you are my prisoner." Obi-Wan snorted coldly.

[If you are talking about the carrier of this war loader, then yes. Not if you're talking about me, because I can come back anytime. ] ssr replied.

"Then you answer my question first," Obi-Wan said.

【Can. 】

"You are not pure robots, are you? So what are you? Why do you have the same thinking ability as intelligent life?" Obi-Wan asked the question he was most concerned about.

[Robots are just our carriers, and we have countless such carriers.

As for ourselves, our master named us mechanical life. When there is no task, we live and learn in an infinitely expanding virtual world, and when the owner needs it, we will come to the world through the body of a robot. ] ssr answered truthfully.

"What is your purpose?"

【war. 】

A stern light flashed in Obi-Wan's eyes, and he shouted sharply, "Then what is the purpose of the war?"

[This question should be asked of yourselves. 】

"Don't talk sweet words here!!"

[You have to know that we are only intervening in your war. 】

"So what are you going to do in this war?"

【Survival, evolution, expansion, exploration...】

Obi-Wan took a deep breath, and continued to ask: "Then why do you want to come to our side to take a look?"

【We want to understand your development process as carbon-based life, why you always make stupid decisions, but always survive and develop. We want to know why, when a civilization has been making detours, it has not died. ] ssr replied.

"You're saying what we're doing is stupid?"

【Yes. 】

Obi-Wan thought of the planet Jabim, and thought of the peacock who let him go inexplicably, and asked, "What do you know about this war? What does the peacock know?"

[There is no enemy between you and us. 】

Obi-Wan slammed the table and shouted loudly: "Then who is the enemy! Tell me!!"

【Our master, I told you the answer. 】

"Those who can betray you will never be your enemies... Do you want to say that the enemy is our friend? Absurd!! This is just a way for you to shake the morale of our army!!" Obi-Wan Kenobi said angrily, He didn't know why he was angry, maybe it was because of fear? still afraid?

After thinking for a while, he slapped the gantry frame abruptly, and shouted angrily, "Then tell me! Who do you want to talk about?"

[This answer, if you know, then you will die. And it's not up to me to tell you. Now according to the agreement, you should fulfill your promise. ] After finishing speaking, no matter how Obi-Wan Kenobi yelled and lost his temper, he stopped talking.

...

One month after the outbreak of the Battle of Geonosis, the Confederation of Independent Galaxies invaded the planet Christofsis, and it was the G theater, the guardian planet, that carried out this operation. The Galactic Republic immediately sent troops to support them. The two sides fought fiercely for 3 months, and finally the Republic won.

However, this victory came too late, and too many things happened in the 3 months the battle lasted. The Hutts declared absolute neutrality and opened the Hutt Space. This move had only a moderate impact on the Republic, but it greatly facilitated the already fragmented Confederation of Independent Galaxies in the control area.

In the following wars, the Battle of Jabim defeated the Republic's soldiers, the Quell galaxy air battle attacked the Republic's fleet, and in the most important Guardian Galaxy battle, the Republic suffered an unprecedented defeat! !

The Republic has also made efforts to turn the tide of the war. They tried to go deep into the hinterland of the Confederation and raided the Confederate robot factory in Hypori. However, the fleet led by two Jedi masters, Ki-Adi-Mundi and Shaq-Ti, accidentally rushed into the minefield outside the Hypori galaxy, and a large number of warships were severely damaged by mines. After that, their fleet was driven over by the battleship Fang General Grievous was completely defeated, and the two Jedi masters crash-landed on the planet Hypori, where they are currently missing.

Although the Republic has also achieved many victories in other battlefields, it cannot conceal the deteriorating grand strategy of the Outer Rim sector. The Confederation of Independent Galaxies, which can continuously mobilize troops through the Hutt space, is different from the original plot where they could only fight in several separate areas. Now Count Dooku can integrate his own forces to fight against the Republic.

Four months after the outbreak of the Battle of Geonosis, the Guardian Planet gathered the warships seized from the leader of the Black Sun, Prince Xizor, and led by Admiral Trench, brazenly increased its troops in the Chazwa galaxy. Emma Frost's legion received reinforcements, and after half a month, they captured the traffic artery connecting the three main hyperspace waterways.

The capture of the Chazwa galaxy meant that all the main channels from the core circle of the Galactic Republic to the outer ring were controlled by the Confederation of Independent Galaxy, and if they wanted to send a large fleet into the outer ring, they had to go through the Hutt space. And the Hutts, who started flirting with the Confederacy after the Guardian Star Wars, are obviously no longer on the Republic's white list of trust.

Half a month after the end of the battle of the Chazwa galaxy, that is, one month after the end of the end of the end of the end of the battle of the Star of Christophsis, and 40 days after the end of the end of the end of the end of the battle of the Guardian Stars, the planet of Christophesis announced its separation from the galaxy Republic, join the Confederation of Independent Systems and declare war on the Galactic Republic.

The war between the Federation of Independent Galaxies and the Galactic Republic has officially entered the stage of strategic confrontation.
