Chereads / Fourth Scourge of Star Wars / Chapter 536 - The Result of the Battle

Chapter 536 - The Result of the Battle

The Republic Fleet finally escaped from Geonosis after Admiral Trench's Fleet was exhausted.

Since May 20, when Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi snuck into the underground Droid Factory of Geonosis, the battle that lasted for 9 days finally came to an end.

The Galactic Republic was able to evacuate from Geonosis with only 15 Acclamator-class Assault Ships, 50 CR-70 Frigates, more than 60 Carrack-class Light Cruisers, 11 Dreadnought-class Heavy Cruisers, and the largest In the end, none of the 4 Invincible-class Heavy Cruisers could be brought back, 3 were severely damaged and scrapped, and 1 had no time to evacuate, so they had to surrender together with more than 7,700 Officers and Soldiers on the Battleship.

The Clone Army participated in the battle with 200,000 Clone Troopers, more than 47,000 were killed and irreversibly seriously injured, more than 91,000 were injured, and 5,000 were captured, and more than 30,000 Light Equipment of various types were lost.

At the same time, all Heavy Equipment was lost, including more than 100 SPHA Self-Propelled Artillery, more than 2,600 AT-TE Walkers, 1,600 LAAT Gunships, and more than 600 V-19 Torrent Fighters.

For the Jedi Order, Master Windu and Master Yoda led a total of 215 Jedi Knights to participate in the battle, plus the rescued Anakin-Skywalker and Obi-Wan-Kenobi, as well as the later support of Depa Billaba and Dream Sisters , a total of 220 Jedi Knights participated in the battle, 181 of whom were buried forever on Geonosis.

Whether it was against the Galactic Republic, the newly formed Grand Republic Army, or the Jedi Order, this battle was a heavy loss.

The Confederacy of Independent Systems lost 5 Providence-class Destroyers, 5 Recusant-class Light Destroyers, 10 Assault-class Light Destroyers, 22 Munificent-class Frigates, the Sabaoth Squadron loyal to Count Dooku, 3 Lucrehulk-class Battleships, 2 Diamond-class Cruisers, 2 Hardcell-class Interstellar Transports and all 5 Geonosian-class Cruisers were also shot down.

The Army lost more than 2.3 Million B-1 Battle Droids, including the B-1 and T-series Tactical Droids that were aboard Battleships, 150,000 B-2 Super Battle Droids, 170,000 Geonosian Soldiers, 500 NR-N99 Persuader-class Droid Enforcers, as well as more than 20,000 Large-Scale Heavy Machines, such as OG-9 Homing Spider Droids, DSD1 Dwarf Spider Droids, and Hailfire-class Droid Tanks, were all destroyed.

The loss of Fighters was also very heavy. 2,100 Nantex Fighters, more than 7,000 Vulture Droid Fighters, and more than 200 other types of Fighters were all shot down.

The losses on Geonosis were even more severe. Three Anti-Orbital Cannons were destroyed, and the underground Droid Factories were also damaged a lot under the earth-shaking riots of the Jedi Knights.

The most deadly thing is that the damage caused by the wreckage of the Warships that fell to the Planet during the battle, is no less than that of Orbital Bombardment. The Droid Factories took its toll, reducing production capacity on Geonosis by a third.

This battle, which can be said to have ignited the fuse of the war, caused immeasurable losses to both parties involved in the war, and also set a bloody tone for this huge war that was about to sweep the entire Galaxy.

In reality, no one knew that the course of the war had actually been drastically altered.

With the intervention of the Fourth Civilization, Tang Xiao, and Admiral Severance Tann that suddenly led a Fleet into the battlefield, defeating the Fleet deployed by the Republic in the outer orbit of Geonosis, and then walked away, although it was just such a incident, it triggered a chain reaction! The Army of the Republic was actually blocked on the Planet, so they had to send more Warships to rescue and continue the battle.

You must know that according to the original battle process, the Republic only paid the price of less than 3,000 Clone Troopers, 179 Jedi Knights, and completely destroyed the Army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The Confederacy of Independent Systems lost 14 Lucrehulk-class Battleships, more than 150 Hardcell-class Interstellar Transports, 20 Diamond-class Cruisers and more than 3 Million Droids transported on them, plus the Ground Troops were completely defeated and they lost more than 110 Warships. The original battle was almost equivalent to breaking a leg of the Confederacy of Independent Systems from the very beginning.

The proposal of this strategy made Tang Xiao have to admire the Combat Staff who made the plan and Sev'rance Tann who commanded the battle. Only the joint efforts of these extremely outstanding people made this battle a success. The most favorable outcome for the Fourth Civilization.

On the one hand, the Army of the Republic has suffered heavy losses. The 200,000 Clone Army can now be sent to other battlefields at no more than 50,000, and the rest must be rested and reorganized. This result is necessary, because in the final analysis, the real enemy of the Fourth Civilization is still the Galactic Republic, and the worse the Republic is beaten, the better for them.

On the other hand, the Confederacy of Independent Systems retained almost all of its Transports, but at the cost of more Warships. The Fourth Group and Dawn, which have a strong Shipbuilding Industry and Technology, are bound to receive more attention.

Only by making the relationship between the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the Freemasonry Alliance secretly established by Tang Xiao closer can Count Dooku not dare to attack him more.

The goal of the Freemasonry Alliance is to control the industry and economy of the Confederacy of Independent Systems behind the scenes, and this plan has only just begun.

The reason why Tang Xiao wanted Admiral Trench to make the battle a lose-lose result was also a response to Count Dooku.

When Count Dooku told him the news that the Galactic Republic had assembled a huge force of 60 Venator-class Star Destroyers to counterattack Bespin, Tang Xiao immediately understood that it was Darth Sidious and Count Dookus conspiracy between the two.

Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to explain why the Republic did not send this cutting-edge Fleet to Geonosis, but sent it to the remote Bespin.

With the gradual display of some of Darth Malthael's power, Dawn and the Fourth Group will inevitably be suspicious of Darth Sidious's Master and Apprentice. This is an inevitable result, but what Tang Xiao had to do was to prevent Count Dooku from attacking Dawn and the Fourth Group. This was not only Military, but also political.

Darth Sidious's promise to Count Dooku certainly did not include the fact that the Confederacy of Independent Systems would soon be wiped out, and Count Dooku was unwilling to do so, because the Confederacy of Independent Systems can be said to be his political ideal and most important tool.

So now, on the one hand, Darth Sidious controlled various forces and sent a huge Fleet to attack Bespin, and Count Dooku was unwilling to provide support, so on the other hand, Tang Xiao also had to use his own strength to bloody the Confederacy of Independent Systems!

Count Dooku didn't dare to gamble on the political consequences of continuing like this, because at the Confederacy of Independent Systems on Raxus, Francis Underwood, a Senator of the Dawn, had already started his own performance and build momentum for Dawn.

Once Dawn is successfully packaged as the hero of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, then Count Dooku's political reputation will suffer a major blow!
