The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1283. Task Force

Rendili galaxy, Galactic Republic task force, flagship - Arlionne (Arlionne) Knight-class star destroyer.

The 1,600-meter-long hull presents a sharp wedge shape, and the hull gradually rises and thickens, until the second half is raised by three additional hulls, and the towering bridge stands on it. Directly in front of the bridge, there are two rows of main gun positions. A total of 60 Taim \u0026 Bak XX-9 turbolaser guns are lined up neatly. gunfire.

Although the Knight-class Star Destroyer has been off the production line for half a year, it has been continuously being debugged. A few months ago, there were loopholes in the battleship operating system of the Knight-class Star Destroyer, so it was reworked again, and the Republic Sina Systems Company was asked to redesign the battleship's operating system.

Therefore, it was not until now, half a year later, that the Knight-class Star Destroyer appeared on the front lines of the war for the first time.

Now in this task force, there are three Knight-class Star Destroyers equipped. As the latest warship of the Kuat Power Dockyard, it is now being put in to deal with the affairs of the Rendili Interstellar Power Company. I have to say that this is an extremely ironic thing.

In other words, maybe this incident was intentional by the people on Kuat's side.

On the bridge of the flagship Arion, Galactic Republic Vice Admiral Trinald Screed stood with his hands behind his back, listening to his adjutant's report.

He is a young general in his 30s, with a dark complexion and a serious expression. He wears a pair of lightweight power gloves with assisted movement functions. And it is very conspicuous that his left eye has been completely replaced with an electronic eye. . The red electronic eyes inlaid in the middle of the hideous wound made him look very terrifying, and the adjutant in front of him hardly dared to look up and look directly at him.

"Have you regained almost 50 capital ships?" Vice Admiral Scarride nodded, "It's already better than expected, as expected of the Jedi Order. Master Yoda took action himself, and it really wasn't those despicable separatists who could Resisting. Get me Master Yoda."

"Yes!" The communication soldier immediately connected the communication.

Looking at the image of Master Yoda on the screen, Lieutenant General Scarred said in a friendly tone that did not match his ferocious appearance: "Master Yoda, thank you for your brave fighting. The next battle here will be left to us." Come and take over, do you want to find a place to rest and bandage first?" He saw the wound on Master Yoda's forehead.

"It's far from over, the battle for Planet Lundili. There is still the possibility of a split, Planet Lundili. This is not the time to rest, now." Master Yoda shook his head.

"If that's the case, please come to my flagship Arion, where you can get the best treatment. But I'm sorry, I'm afraid that the next battle command will need me and Lieutenant General Jane Dodenne to take over. You ...better not to get involved."

His words were very firm, and the meaning was obvious - you Jedi Knights have worked hard, but rest now, it's nothing to do with you.

One such man, Trinald Scarride, has great respect for the Jedi Order and is immensely grateful for the way the Jedi Order has maintained order in the Galactic Republic for thousands of years. But he also made it very clear that the Jedi Order was a thing of the past, and that the new order of the Republic no longer needed Jedi Knights.

"I will provide the necessary help. I will not interfere with the command of the fleet." Master Yoda was not disobedient, nodded and closed the communication.

Lieutenant General Scarred connected to another communication, and the holographic projection projected another general who was about his age but much thinner, Jan Dodonna (Jan Dodonna).

"I have to congratulate you, General Dodena. Because of the hard work of the Jedi Knights, you have won a chance to command 50 battleships." Lieutenant General Scarride said a little sourly.

He and Lieutenant General Dodena are not only comrades-in-arms, but also competitors. As high-achieving students who graduated from the Calida Naval Academy in the same period and then climbed to this point in constant battles, the result of their battle this time will be related to whether they can be promoted to admirals who will lead the fleet to fight against the separatist forces in the future. .

"Oh, 50 battleships, this is more than double yours. Do you need me to allocate some battleships to you?" Jane Dodenne is a very simple and straightforward person. He really wants to allocate some battleships. To Scarride.

It's a pity that Scarred misunderstood what he meant, and only felt that Dodena was mocking himself. He snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! I still don't like your old rags! I use the fleet in my hand to That's enough! Planet Lundili will be in my pocket!"

The task force led by him has a total of 20 warships, including 3 Knight-class star destroyers, 3 cheerer-class assault landing ships, and 14 hunter-class battlecruisers. In addition, there are 100 Republic-class transport ships used to transport troops and equipment.

These warships were originally intended to reinforce the counterattack fleet against the battle group assembled by the Separatist General Grievous on the planet Saleucami (Saleucami). However, due to the continuous occurrence of major incidents in the inner circle, Schiff Palpatine intercepted this batch of reinforcements and formed a task force to send to the planet Lundili.

And Trinald Scarride and Jane Dodena are the commanders of this task force.

Jane Doddenner reminded: "Lundili's rebels have opened the planetary shield, and now we can only confront their fleet head-on. I don't think this mission is easy."

"If it's easy, it's enough to send you alone." Scared said sarcastically.

"I'm going to take over the fleet. The crews of these warships need to be reorganized, and it will probably take at least two to three days... I will start working immediately." After Jane Dodenne finished speaking, she deployed her troops and turned off the communication.

...

At the same time, on a Victory I-class Star Destroyer of the original Planetary Defense Fleet on the planet Lundili, a soldier came over and reported to the Jedi Knights standing on the bridge: "General! Our fighter jets just intercepted a A V-19 fighter jet, the latest identification friend or foe system did not respond, and there was no response in the communication. Please decide."

Jing Fang thought for a while and said, "Activate the tractor beam and recover this fighter jet. See where the pilot is."

"yes!"

A moment later, in the medical room, Jing Fang looked at Arden Lin who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed.

"She is the devil of the dark side more than 20,000 years ago." Master Yoda said slowly.

"I didn't know before, but now I know..." Jing Fang said, "But I still think we should save her. I don't think she is a bad person in essence."

"Hmm..." Master Yoda shook his head, but didn't speak.

"General, do you need to handcuff her while she is being treated?" a soldier asked.

"No. If she really wants to leave, then let her leave. At least on the surface, she is working for the intelligence department of the Republic." Jing Fang said.

"Your approach is right, maybe." Master Yoda sighed softly, "I'm old, people of our generation."
