The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1517: trap

At the same time, the capital of the Fourth Civilization Saiswena star area, the planet Eliadu, and the capital city of Elixiang.

"General Ling, according to your request, we have continued to pay attention to the hyperspace fluctuations around the planet Naboo, and have not found any abnormalities. This shows that during this period of time, the main fleet of the 17th Army of the Republic is still on the planet Naboo , I have no intention of leaving." An intelligence officer came over and said.

Ling Liang waved his hand to signal him to back down, and then he entered a long series of numbers in the terminal in front of him, performed a series of calculations, then frowned, and said: "Add troops to the Ennaco galaxy, do it immediately!" Get ready. This time, I will fight in person."

"General? Are you going to fight in person?" The adjutant was a little surprised. "It's just a stalemate. You don't need to go to the battlefield in person, right?"

"Not soon. According to the calculation of zero-mode probability, the main fleet of the 17th Army of the Galactic Republic should launch an active attack within 3 days." Ling Liang said lightly.

"Actively attack? They don't want to live anymore?" The adjutant couldn't understand Ling Liang's judgment.

"Even through logical inference, we can draw a similar conclusion, but it's not as accurate." Ling Liang said, "After we issued a statement of support for the Jedi Order, the Galactic Republic immediately made a statement on several fronts. Respond, but only within the sphere of influence of our fourth civilization, there is no movement at all. This is the first point."

She raised up the other two fingers, and then said: "Second point, although our strategy was very successful and nailed the opponent's main fleet to death, it is not unbreakable. The fleet of the Galactic Republic only needs to separate its main fleet from the main fleet in batches." We also have no choice but to withdraw from the planet Naboo, so as long as they are willing to spend some more time, they can still draw a large number of fleets to return to the planet Kira. Increase troops in the direction of the galaxy."

"What does the addition of troops to the Yago-Dur galaxy have to do with our direction? Shouldn't this mean that they want to attack the Yago-Dure galaxy?" the adjutant asked.

"After the troop increase, the battleship needs to be reorganized, the personnel need to rest, and the equipment needs to be maintained, so this is indeed a precursor to an attack, but at least it will not be immediately." Ling Liang said, "And the Republic fleet on Naboo So those actions were not taken because they were no longer needed."

"That means they will attack soon! So there is no need to increase the number of troops to mess up the original complete establishment?!" The adjutant suddenly realized.

"Get ready to go." Ling Liang took the military cap from the orderly and put it on for himself, then walked towards the outside of the bridge.

Suddenly, the communications soldier came over and said loudly: "General Ling! Dawn Star Telegram - there is definite news that the main fleet of the 17th Army of the Republic will launch an active attack in the near future, attacking the Ennaco Galaxy! Chief of Staff Qi Jian, Commander-in-Chief of the Navy Matt Horner is waiting in the virtual conference room!"

The corners of Ling Liang's mouth turned up slightly, "Oh~~~~It seems that our intelligence department is also extremely powerful."

...

And at this moment, on the periphery of the Ze-Hess planet, the flagship of the Guerrilla Fleet of the Sesvenna Sector of the Fourth Civilization—the Hell's Angel-class battlecruiser Long River.

Rear Admiral Malcolm Granger was studying the next step in front of the holographic star map. After looking at the star map for a while, he said to the staff officer on the side: "How is Pax Planet?"

The staff officer quickly replied: "According to the report from the reconnaissance drone, the Galactic Republic still has a large number of salvage ships at the edge of the Pax galaxy, salvaging the wreckage of the battleship where we fought last time."

"They are quite courageous enough. Knowing that we have already captured Planet Ze-Hess, yet we are still stuck on Planet Pax." Major General Granger frowned.

"It is estimated that the purification-level stealth special service ship shocked them too much." The staff officer said, "And on Planet Pax, they also deployed an escort fleet."

"It's a desperate effort to get something back." Malcolm Granger sneered, "Then let them do what they want. When you're ready, we'll attack Planet Pax! Then, we'll go Take a walk around Planet Kira! I just want to see if their main fleet can stay so securely on Planet Naboo!"

At this time, the communications soldier came quickly and said in a low voice, "General Granger, there is a secret message from the headquarters."

Malcolm Granger nodded, and immediately went to the conference room on the side of the bridge, where Ling Liang's holographic projection had already appeared in the center of the conference room.

Seeing Granger coming here, Ling Liang said straight to the point: "Give up all the current combat operations of the guerrilla fleet, and immediately move to the planet Ennako to prepare for reinforcement operations."

"Going to the planet Ennako? Don't tell me that the 17th Army has any illogical ideas and is going to take the initiative to attack?" Malcolm Granger shrugged and spread his hands.

"You're right." Ling Liang said.

"Damn it! We are still planning to harass and force their main fleet to take action! For this reason, I also specially formulated a second raid on the planet Kira, but they actually sent it to their door?" Malcolm- Granger cursed.

And he is still waiting for the planned second raid on the planet Kira to upgrade himself to lieutenant general.

Compared with the Galactic Republic, where the admiral walks everywhere, the military rank of the Fourth Civilization is much more cautious. Even an awakened general like Malcolm Granger would at most start as a major general after joining the navy, and he would be promoted to lieutenant general only after completing inspections and achieving certain military exploits.

In the Fourth Civilization, a lieutenant general or above is qualified to lead an entire fleet to fight independently.

"The situation has indeed changed. I have sent you the battle plan. Don't worry, it won't affect your promotion." Ling Liang said.

Major General Granger looked at the document she sent over, but his expression gradually turned serious, "Do you want me to choose between the coffin and the lieutenant general? General Ling."

"After all, the main fleet of the 17th Army has a strong force. I don't want to fight a battle in which one thousand enemies are injured and eight hundred are injured. Therefore, more preparations must be made. The three Commander II-class dreadnoughts of the 17th Army really need to If you work hard, the Xuanwu will not pass through unscathed," Ling Liang said.

"I see." Malcolm Granger gave a military salute.

...

"Lot Dude, the insatiable bastard! He actually wants us to hand over the planet Vanderheim first!" Admiral Kourney cursed.

"From his standpoint, he is naturally worried that we will renege on our debts afterwards." The governor of the 17th Army, Lynch Houser, touched his goatee and said, "But what I am more concerned about is whether the plan he proposed is feasible? "
