Conspiracy

"Count Dooku, the forward Detection Station has sent a message that a large Fleet of the Galactic Republic has entered the Corellian Trade Spine, and all of them are the most Advanced Warships of the Republic, the Venator-class Star Destroyers. I hope the Supreme Command can provide support." During the communication, Tang Xiao said to Count Dooku very seriously.

"Unfortunately, my friend, although we knew the offensive plan of the Galactic Republic in advance, our Fleet is now fighting in every part of the Galaxy. Passel Argente is leading an Army to raid the Kamino, Wat Tambor's fleet is attacking Excarga, and at the same time, we have detected that the Galactic Republic is plotting to raid our Capital Planet of Raxus." Count Dooku sighed, "We really can't mobilize more Fleets..."

"You should know that the Fleet attacking Bespin is all the new Warships of the Galactic Republic at this stage. It is very important to win the battle. Moreover, the Battle of Bespin is the only battle successfully achieved by our Confederacy of Independent Systems. Are you going to sit idly by?" Tang Xiao asked with a gloomy expression.

"I also hope that you can understand my difficulties, Your Excellency Governor, as long as you can hold the Republic Fleet for a while, I will definitely organize reinforcements to come to help as soon as possible. I believe that with the strength of the Dawn, it will definitely be able to defeat the Republic Fleet, said Count Dooku.

Tang Xiao cut off the communication coldly. He was angry in his heart, but he also understood that it was useless to pester him.

This time, Sheev Palpatine and Count Dooku's conspiracy was overt. Palpatine first delayed the assembly of reinforcements to the Geonosis, so that Depa Billaba had to lead a motley Army to rescue Master Yoda, but soon, the delayed Fleet assembled again.

At this time, he can send this powerful Fleet to Bespin on the grounds that Bespin has been captured, and go for the Fleet of Dawn.

Bespin is definitely not a good strategic attack direction, after all, it is too remote. However, because Palpatine strongly advocated the establishment of an Army, his prestige in the Republic's Military was unparalleled for a while, so once or twice, the Military could tolerate such small selfishness.

The Jedi Knights will not question this strange strategic choice because Master Yoda and Master Windu are not there.

For Count Dooku, now that the Confederacy of Independent Systems has just started a comprehensive strategic offensive, and there are still 200,000 Clone Troopers and the two High Leaders of the Jedi Order besieged on Geonosis, he has enough reasons to refuse to send troops to aid.

What's more, Palpatine sang with him and proposed a plan to raid Raxus, the Capital Planet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Faced with the changes in the Republic, Count Dooku directly decided to assemble a large number of Fleets on the Capital Planet of Raxus.

It is absolutely unrealistic to ask for reinforcements at such a time. The only way is to turn this crisis into an opportunity.

That's right, Francis Underwood, the Prime Minister of Dawn, has led a mission to Raxus and vigorously publicized the bravery of Dawn at the Senate of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

The capture of Bespin, and the raid on Geonosis, these battles have been exaggerated and elaborated time and time again by him, and now he even describes Dawn as a battle hero who held back the entire Elite Fleet of the Galactic Republic and created opportunities for offensives in other directions!

So, now the problem is on Tang Xiao's side!

In order not to be trapped by Palpatine and Count Dooku in the future, he must eat this Republic Fleet!! Only in this way can he gain a firm foothold in the nascent regime of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and establish his own image of hegemony!

Sev'rance Tann has her own secret mission. Admiral Trench, as a dark chess player, is best placed in the Corporate Alliance. Now here, the only one he can rely on is the Admiral, Matt Horner.

"Listen, Matt." Tang Xiao switched on the communication and said to the straight Admiral Matt Horner standing on the other end, "You won't have too many reinforcements, neither Fleet B nor Fleet C will come to support, but... I want you to win this battle! Win it big!"

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!" Matt Horner answered resonantly without squinting.

"I will come to the battlefield in person. When they launch Fighters, I will destroy the Jedi Knights of the Galactic Republic for you." Tang Xiao said word by word, "Don't let me down."

"Yes!"

Tang Xiao nodded, and after turning off the communication, he said to Thull Wulain, the Instructor of the Fourth Legion, and Justin Reeves, the Commander of the Fourth Legion, who were standing behind him: "The matter of the Jedi Covenant will be discussed later, first we have to resolve Battle on Bespin."

"The Fourth Army, always on standby." Justin Reeves said.

"Your enemy is the Clone Army, and the Army that came to attack Bespin this time is Ordinary Soldiers. The power in our hands cannot be exposed too much, especially now. The Fourth Legion cannot be dispatched on a large scale this time. " Tang Xiao said.

"Yes." Justin stood at attention and saluted, and replied.

Thull Wulain's main work now is on training, and the front-line combat command of the Fourth Army has been handed over to Justin Reeves.

...

"Welcome to your arrival, General Glynn-Beti, General Aidan Bok." In the spaceport of Haven, the huge Fleet is undergoing the final replenishment, and the Governor of the 19th Legion, Sulamar, personally received the Generals at the Command Center. Two Jedi Masters and their Padawans from the fleet.

Sulamar is a human male, 59 years old, well-maintained so that he looks like he is in his 40s, wearing a white uniform and holding a cane in his hand.

"The 19th Legion Army, 200,000 people have been assembled. They can board the ship at any time." Sulamar said, "Bespin's special situation is not suitable for the operation of the Acclamator-class Assault Ship, but, all available Transport Ships are assembled. Just waiting for news from the forward Fleet."

[PS: Actually, I did some research on the battles that took place during the Clone Wars... I was basically sure that Anakin Skywalker had Clone Trooper skills in this war... Take the early days of the war as an example, within a few days he Participated in the Battle of Geonosis, went home to marry Padmé, defended Kamino, attacked the Capital Planet of Raxus, and then participated in the operation of Rhen Var... Oh, yes, Christophsis in the movie version, the Battle of the Sith and saving Jabba's son were also during this time...]
