700,stopping steps
After the Ewoks joined the battle, the Lota people's plan to fight guerrilla warfare on the planet came to nothing. The ensuing retaliation and purge suddenly swept across the entire planet.
Millions of people were implicated, arrested, and then sent to work in harsh mines, with only three out of ten surviving.
However, the Luota people were fierce by nature, and even so, they still set off several armed riots. After completing the arrest mission, Huang Yehao's troops went out many times to fight the militants.
Huang Yehao and Cummings witnessed with their own eyes the weapons in the hands of the militants changed from rocket launchers and blaster rifles to pistols, homemade bombs, and then to wooden sticks and long knives, but the resistance continued.
Their blood is getting colder and colder, and their eyes looking across the battlefield are getting colder and colder.
There is a saying that is right, you cannot change the war, then you can only wait for the war to change you.
Time entered September of 22 BBY, and the flames of resistance on the planets Lota and Haven gradually extinguished. No matter how much hatred the residents of these two planets felt in their hearts, they could only bury it deep in their hearts. Order gradually restored, and workers,
Farmers and administrative staff returned to their posts one after another, and began to work under the supervision of robots.
While continuing to eliminate the remaining forces of the 19th Army, the Fourth Civilization also began to adjust its defense forces in a targeted manner.
The planet Karl, which was previously an important line of defense for the 19th Army, is no longer so important. The Fourth Civilization has begun to move its defense forces north to the Golden Rock Planet where the Gran people belong. This can block the imminent moves of the 20th Army of the Republic, and can also secretly support them.
The activities of the Given people on the planet Yager-Dur. Once the news that the Given people are members of the Confederation of Independent Systems can no longer be concealed, then the Golden Rock Planet will be an important fulcrum to support the defense operations of the planet Yager-Dur.
The Raz-class heavy engineering ship began to go to the Golden Rock Planet and began to build a new Agniev-class interstellar base. The huge mineral transport ships of the United Mining Group kept traveling between the Karl Planet and the Golden Rock Planet, and the original defense line of the Karl Planet was blocked.
The wreckage of the destroyed Republic heavily armed space stations was transported over and used as part of the raw materials for building an interstellar base.
And once this Agniev-class interstellar base is completed, the Gran people will have no choice but to completely surrender to the fourth civilization. Otherwise, this interstellar base will have the ability to burn glass directly on the Golden Rock Planet.
In addition, the Fourth Civilization Fleet A captured the planet Manpha and directly stationed here. There are tens of millions of Shawda Ubb people living on the planet Manpha. This is a
A small amphibious race with very backward civilization and technology has not yet gotten rid of the primitive tribal society and is still at the primary level of just beginning to prepare to integrate into the republic society.
However, there is still a spaceport on the planet Manfa, Port Shanpan (Sha).
After the Fourth Civilization occupied Manfa Planet, Shanpan Port became busy. The daily cargo throughput almost immediately made this small space port almost explode. As a last resort, Matt Horner could only
Pull two-thirds of the fleet back.
The deployment on the Manfa planet mainly threatens the edge transportation hub of the 18th Army of the Republic - Terminus planet. This is also the place that Matt Horner has been obsessed with before and hopes to conquer with the power of the Plague.
In fact, his opinion is not unreasonable, because if you want to attack the planet Terminus, the only and most convenient hyperspace route is through the planet Manfa.
However, the backward planet Manfa is simply unable to support the logistical supplies for large-scale fleet operations, while the planet Terminus has a complete industrial and logistics system. These two huge differences make the Fourth Civilization’s influence on the planet Terminus
The offense is very difficult.
On the contrary, once the planet Terminus can be captured, the Fourth Civilization's strategic space for the 18th Army will suddenly become clearer. Not to mention having an advantage, at least it will be able to move freely.
So if we can conquer it in one fell swoop with the help of the Plague, we won't have to worry about the logistics of Manfa Planet anymore. Unfortunately, Tang Xiao finally chose Severance Tann's other more radical and risky plan.
——
Assault on Cato-Neimoidia.
But as Tang Xiao said, this was a decision made from the perspective of Darth Malthael.
After all, the reason why the Trade Federation joined the Confederation of Independent Systems was indeed brokered by his master, Hego Damask II, but in the end, Newt Gunray was promoted to the position of Governor of the Trade Federation, and the Trade Federation
The person who joined the ranks of separatism was Darth Sidious.
Therefore, the Trade Federation can be said to be the direct descendant of Darth Sidious - of course, the kind of direct descendant who is fattened and then slaughtered.
However, the direct lineage is the direct lineage after all, and now the Trade Federation still follows the instructions of Darth Sidious.
However, for Darth Malthael, the timid and wavering Newt Gunray is an object that can be fought for and one that must be fought for!
Now Newt Gunray has a good relationship with the Fourth Civilization. The main reason is that he believes that Tang Xiao was dragged on board by Darth Sidious just like him, so they share the same problem. But if such a relationship begins
, and then slowly implanting Darth Malthael's fear into Newt Gunray's heart, there is a chance that Newt Gunray can be won over.
Sending the Plague directly into Cato Neimoidia is an opportunity to show Newt Gunray the powerful dark side power of Darth Malthael.
You must know that the end of the Clone Wars started when Newt Gunray entered the password to shut down all combat robots in the entire Confederacy of Independent Systems.
Why Darth Sidious has the confidence to say that the war will end when he wants it to end? This is one of the biggest reliances.
If this reliance became Darth Malthael's, it would be a shame.
Compared with this, it is not so unacceptable to throw Matt Horner into the swamps of the planet Manfa to crawl around and painstakingly expand the spaceport and build infrastructure.
Fleet B, temporarily led by Lin Nanyi, is stationed on the planet Glensong. On the one hand, it echoes the planet Haven and protects this planet, which can now be said to be the most important planet of the fourth civilization besides the Dawn planet. On the other hand, it is
On the one hand, it occupies this hyperspace channel that can lead directly to the capital of the 18th Army of the Republic - the planet Eriadu.
There is no doubt that this hyperspace channel is cut off by countless air mines and hyperspace blockers, and it is impossible to go directly there. However, it has also become the location of a direct fleet confrontation between the Fourth Civilization and the 18th Army.
…
During this period of time, the Fourth Civilization actually had no time to continue its external expansion, so Tang Xiao focused his energy on consolidating his rule in the occupied areas.
But it doesn't mean that he can let the future governor of the 18th Army of the Galactic Republic, Wilhuff Tarkin, who will be famous in the future, sleep peacefully.
Others don't know what Tajin's future will be like, but Tang Xiao knows it all.
As the first senior governor after the establishment of the Galactic Empire, and the highest-ranking military leader under Emperor Darth Sidious, Wilhuff Tarkin will be a leader in the foreseeable future.
