The atmosphere here is now as stagnant as death. No one dares to express their anger, and even some timid officers are trembling slightly.
The source of this terrifying atmosphere is the man standing in the middle of the bridge, who looks like a demon.
Black armor, black helmet, black cloak, even his eyes were completely covered. Standing in front of him, he could only see his fearful face reflected in the smooth helmet.
Just half an hour ago, everything was going in a good direction. Although their fleet was short of supplies, energy, and exhausted officers and men, they succeeded in dragging the separatist fleet into a decisive fleet battle.
Even though most of the middle and lower-level officers and soldiers were dissatisfied or even angry with this decision, the outstanding officers in the staff and command headquarters could still tell how wise it was to fight this decisive battle of the fleet now.
In other words, after this fleet battle, although the winner will not be determined immediately, they can definitely give up when they are ready. After severely damaging the Rendili defense fleet, they can recover to the edge of the galaxy and drive away the opponent's squadron.
Establish contact with the rear and receive supplies.
After the supplies are completed, attack the planet again in a complete posture, and you will conquer it in one fell swoop without any suspense.
But...a piece of news turned all these efforts into nothing.
The planet Kira has been captured!
How is this possible! It has only been two days since the two sides declared war on each other on August 6! And even if part of the fleet stationed in the Kira system has been mobilized, there are still 1,100 capital ships and more than 3,000 ships left.
How could a small and medium-sized auxiliary battleship, coupled with the cooperation of an armed space station and a planetary shield, be captured in two days?
The capture of the Kira Galaxy means that the entire Hydia Channel will be opened, and the Dawn Planet's fleet will be able to directly threaten the inner ring of the Milky Way through the Hydia Channel.
(It’s a bit late today, I will draw a star map tomorrow.)
This will mean that the Galactic Empire must redeploy its fleets in various places. In order to prevent the main fleet of the Principality of Dawn from penetrating into the inner ring and causing serious political consequences, the Galactic Empire must mobilize more mobile fleets to block the Principality of Dawn fleet.
go ahead.
The mobilized troops are probably their fleet that is attacking the Rendili system!
This is the reason why Darth Vader immediately ordered to break away from the battle when he received the news that the Kira planet fleet was defeated. And once they retreat, Rendili planet will get a chance to breathe. Next time, they will have to fight again.
It is almost impossible to find such a good opportunity.
After this lesson, the commanders on the separatist side will definitely hold their ground next time and will not take the initiative no matter how provocative they are. What awaits the Galactic Empire will be a head-to-head battle!
Sure enough, Emperor Palpatine of the Galactic Empire personally ordered that Darth Vader immediately organize a mobile fleet to return to the defense, must block the advancement of the Separatist fleet, and strive to eliminate the enemy commander-Severance Tann!
…
The time goes back to two days ago, August 6.
Immediately after the Principality of Dawn declared war on the Galactic Empire, according to the arrangement of Operation Plan Zero, the Principality of Dawn stationed its fleet at the two most important gateways and military bases on the planet Eriadu and the planet Yago-Dur.
Immediately organize into the First Task Force and the Second Task Force and launch an attack on the predetermined target.
As for the planet Kira, which directly threatens the Malastar planet and blocks the fleet of the Dawn Principality's Eriadu planet, it immediately entered the highest level of combat readiness.
The supreme commander of the fleet stationed on the planet Kira, Imperial Navy Admiral Michael Unther, has arrived at the combat command center and issued an order: "All battleships, immediately sail out of the space port and enter combat formation!"
"yes!"
The fleet stationed on the planet Kira consists of one Executor-class super Star Destroyer, and it is also the flagship of the fleet - the Lusankya.
2 Commander II-class Dreadnoughts, 4 Commander-Class I Dreadnoughts, 560 Imperial-class Star Destroyers, 50 Imperial II-class Experimental Star Destroyers, 100 Knight-class Star Destroyers, and Interdictor-class Star Destroyers
10 ships, 200 Victory II-class Star Destroyers, 50 Victory I-class Star Destroyers, 50 Chasseur-class battlecruisers, and 5 Chaser-class aircraft carriers.
The warships in this garrison are of very high quality, and there are also 50 Imperial II-class Star Destroyers. This was launched by the Quat Dynamics Shipyard after absorbing the problems encountered by the Imperial-class Star Destroyers and Knight-class Star Destroyers in actual combat.
Improved model, but this model is not yet completely finalized and needs further combat testing.
However, this fleet is not completely without hidden dangers. For example, what puzzles Michel Unser the most is that one of the biggest changes to the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer is the removal of all close-defense turrets and the transmission of energy
It became more integrated and centralized, resulting in more powerful artillery fire and stronger shields.
In other words, the Empire II-class Star Destroyer is being improved in the direction of a battleship used in fleet decisive battles. Perhaps it is to deal with the powerful battleships of the Principality of Dawn, such as the Hells Angel-class battlecruisers, and some intelligence departments.
I didn't get the exact data, but it looked like a very scary battleship.
But this does not mean that there is no threat to the carrier-based aircraft force of the Principality of Dawn! The combination of Phantom fighters and Viking fighters, even now, the Galactic Empire has no way to crack it.
So the way to crack Kuat Power Shipyard is not to crack it?
Another hidden danger is that Michel Unser believes that the proportion of Imperial-class Star Destroyers in his fleet is too high. Although the Imperial Navy keeps talking about building a diversified and comprehensive fleet,
A three-dimensional navy, but in the end, a large number of orders still flew to the Kuat Power Dockyard, and then the Empire-class Star Destroyer was built day after day.
But this is not a problem that Michel Unser needs to consider. Even if there are some hidden dangers, he is still confident in the fleet in his hands. He is a very typical imperial officer - he came from a wealthy businessman's family and entered the empire.
After graduating from the Naval Academy, he achieved excellent results and had full confidence in the new order of the empire. Then he started as the captain of a cruiser, climbed up the ranks, worked steadily, and finally became an admiral guarding one side.
For Michel Uncer, it is his honor to be able to command such a powerful fleet. And he also hopes that under his leadership, this powerful fleet can make contributions to the empire and expand its frontiers.
earth.
The Galactic Empire and the Principality of Dawn declared war on each other, and when the war broke out again, Michel Unser was a little excited.
Because, the time has finally come to show his value!
