861, Jiwen people join the war [Updated 2/5, please vote]
The temporary calm on the battlefield does not mean that nothing really happened between the two warring parties. On the contrary, a bigger storm is brewing.
On January 35, after a long quarrel, the Speaker of the Galactic Republic Parliament, Sheev Palpatine, finally made the decision and announced that he would decide in three days whether to send an investigation team to the Given home planet of Yag-Dur.
Vote on a matter.
The Given councilors repeatedly objected to this, but this time Palpatine was determined, and the vote was officially held on February 3.
In the end, the parliament passed the resolution with 67% of the votes in favor, 22% of the votes against, 9% of the votes abstaining and 2% of the votes invalidated.
Palpatine announced that he would send a special mission headed by Bail Organa, a member of the planet Alderaan, to the planet Yag-Dur to investigate the illegal construction of warships by the Givenians.
The Jiwen people need to cooperate with the investigation and clearly explain their purpose of building warships, as well as the models, quantities and funding sources of warships that have been built.
At the same time, the Customs and Commerce Department of the Galactic Republic also launched an investigation into the previous logistics records of the planet Yag-Dur.
However, the results of the investigation were unexpected. All the logistics records of the planet Yag-Dur in the past 10 years have been deleted, and no data can be found at all.
This heightened the Galactic Republic Council's suspicion of the Givens.
On February 5, the investigation team set off. However, the Jiwen people once again set up a hyperspace blocker, blocked traffic, and refused the investigation team entry.
In the afternoon of that day, Bail Organa issued a strongly worded ultimatum to the Jivin people, requiring them to open the border within a standard day to welcome the investigation team to enter.
The Givens never responded, but the nearby Republic outpost detected that the hyperspace traffic signal in the direction of the Golden Rock planet south of Yag-Dur and close to the Gran people became busier, more than five times the normal level.
On February 6, Bail Organa returned to Coruscant and publicly announced the breakdown of negotiations in the Senate. The Jivan senators were immediately expelled from the Galactic Capitol.
On February 7, the Speaker of the Galactic Parliament, Sheev Palpatine, authorized the Governor of the Republic's 20th Army, Octavian Grant, to lead a fleet to forcibly enter the planet Yag-Dur.
In the afternoon of that day, Octavian Grant's fleet arrived in front of the hyperspace blocker array on the planet Yag-Dur and began to fire cannons to forcefully destroy the hyperspace blocker.
An hour later, the Givens issued a statement, saying that the Galactic Republic ignored the Declaration of Neutrality, forced neutral planets to participate in the war, violated the Constitution of the Galactic Republic, and trampled on the sovereignty of the Givens. In retaliation, the Givens announced their withdrawal from the Galactic Republic, openly joined the Confederation of Independent Systems, and
Issue a war mobilization order.
That night, a total of 10 Chasseur-class battlecruisers and 1 Cheer-class assault landing ship of the 20th Army Fleet of the Republic, after destroying the hyperspace blocker, once again entered hyperspace and jumped into the Jager-Dur system.
.
However, this hyperspace jump was affected by the gravitational pull of three stars within the Jager-Dur system, causing the jump landing point to deviate. Two of the Jaeger-class battlecruisers deviated from their course and lost contact after 30 minutes.
According to the video images sent back by the two Jaeger-class ships before they lost contact, although the battlefield interference was very serious, it could still be recognized that they encountered an extremely large mushroom-shaped space station.
After comparison by the intelligence department, it is believed that the mushroom-shaped space station in the image is more than 70% similar to the Agonev-class starbase that appeared in the Battle of Bespin! However, the size of this starbase in the image is
Far bigger than the one on Bespin!
Out of caution, Octavian Grant immediately led his army to retreat.
On February 8, the 20th Army of the Galactic Republic officially submitted a combat plan to the Republic's Supreme Strategic Command in preparation for launching a full-scale attack on the planet Yag-Dur.
On February 9, with the personal signature of Speaker Palpatine, the Supreme Strategic Command of the Republic approved the plan.
At the same time, the fleet of the 20th Army of the Republic began to assemble on the planet Giju, with Jedi Master Sha Koon and her apprentice Baylis Ar taking command of the fleet.
Master Sha-Kong is a Kordo, she is the niece of Jedi Master Plo-Kon, she has strong telepathy and powerful power.
At the same time, the Jivin people are also actively deploying defenses. According to the monitoring at the border outpost of the Galactic Republic, at least 10 or more large warships set off from the Dawn Planet and entered the Yag-Dur system via the Golden Rock Planet.
The war was about to break out in the Jager-Durr galaxy, which had been peaceful for tens of thousands of years. However, considering the complex environment of this Trisolaran galaxy, the 20th Governor Octavian Grant did not launch an attack rashly. Instead, he gathered a large number of mathematicians and
Astronomers are constantly calculating and observing the recent trajectories of the three stars in this galaxy to find the most suitable opportunity to attack.
The formal intervention of the 20th Army also means that for the Fourth Civilization, they will have to open a new front in the Yag-Dur system, and at the same time face the 18th and 20th Army of the Republic in both directions.
And what's terrible is that, needless to say, Wilhuff Tarkin's ability, Octavius Grant will also be one of the famous marshals of the Galaxy Empire on the list in the future, and he is also a very difficult opponent.
Because Admiral Trench received the call from General Grievous and was preparing to continue to command the Enterprise Alliance fleet to start the next stage of the attack on the Central Star Area, Tang Xiao had to adjust his deployment again and recruit the newly awakened General Ling.
Liang went to the Jager-Dur system as a military advisor. At the same time, Lin Nanyi was transferred from Severance Tann's B fleet as Ling Liang's adjutant.
Lin Nanyi had previously led a fleet alone and had combat experience in places such as the Seriya planet. Letting him serve as Ling Liang's adjutant would help make up for Ling Liang's lack of experience in space combat.
At the same time, Tang Xiao also wanted to see what Ling Liang's abilities were.
…
At this time, the communication that Tang Xiao had been waiting for for a long time finally rang again.
He read the message attached to the communicator and understood the person's identity. He also put on his formal clothes very solemnly, straightened his clothes to ensure that his appearance was meticulous, and then connected the communication.
The communication was connected, but the image of the other party was not projected immediately. Instead, several incredibly beautiful maids came first, paved a path with flowers, and then covered it with a layer of silky and soft cloth.
Then an old man came over.
He has some wrinkles on his face and looks to be about 60 years old, but considering his wealth and status, his actual age must be much older than he looks. He is wearing a white, soft, lightweight robe, and has very gorgeous shoulders.
The snow-white hair was neatly combed back and cascading down like a waterfall, reaching her waist.
With such an appearance, even Tang Xiao had to admit that he really looked like an immortal.
"Mr. Tang Xiao." The old man said slowly, "I am Benjila Ulan, the patriarch of the Ulan family and the chief director of Lundili Interstellar Power Company. I heard that your memory is not very good, but it doesn't matter, you know
The weight of the name will do."
