The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2332. Chis leader’s harassment battle (Part 2)

Unknown Star Territory, Northern Territory.

(For the convenience of explanation, the name of the Unknown Star Territory will be divided into North and South Territory in the future, with the center of the Milky Way as the dividing line, and the north is the Northern Territory, including the Chiss Territory, the Kingdom of Light Kilgi, the area once controlled by the Grisk Hegemony, and the base. The breeding range of the Lick swarm is in the south. It is the Southern Territory, including the area controlled by the Xilu Empire and the area controlled by the God of Decay, Mongal-Mongal. It is centered on the planet Levik, and in the most remote area, it is where the original body of Mongal-Mongal was once located. The planet Moog-Fallo).

A small Imperial fleet is docked in the outer space of a desolate planet. This fleet only has 10 Imperial-class Star Destroyers, 10 Aquitens-class light cruisers and 20 Night's Watch-class frigates.

Most of the warships in this imperial fleet look quite weathered, and they look like they have experienced hundreds of battles. Among the galactic empire's navies, there are not many fleets in this state. The fleet led by Darth Vader that took four years to capture the Salukami planet was one of them, and that fleet was undergoing repairs after its attack on the Rendili planet was frustrated, and its movements are unknown.

The other Galactic Empire fleets could either suppress the rebels and rely on the strong to bully the weak, or they could be broken into pieces in the decisive battle with the Kingdom of Dawn's fleet. Therefore, each of those battleships looked brand new, shiny, and majestic. Showing the glory and domineering power of the empire.

Around this fleet, there are many large and small transport ships transporting supplies, but from the perspective of throughput, this fleet does not receive much supplies.

An Imperial-class Star Destroyer located at the core is very obviously from the period of this fleet, and its name - Chimaera - is spray-painted on the side of this battleship.

In the center of the bridge, a tall and resolute middle-aged man with a resolute appearance is standing next to the holographic star map. He stands as straight as a compass. He is dressed in military uniforms meticulously, with no wrinkles at all. His black hair is neatly combed. together.

What's even more surprising is his blue skin and bright red eyes.

There is no doubt that he is a Chiss - Mith-ro-Nurudo-Thawn!

An Imperial Navy officer came over, holding a supply list in his hand, handed it over, and said with great respect: "General Thrawn, this is the supply list sent by the Chisling family this time. Please take a look at it."

Thrawn took the list and looked at it very carefully, not even missing an item. Even so, he read very quickly. Then, he put down the list, frowned and asked: "We asked for more explosive gas, why is it only 40% of the expected amount?"

The officer shook his head and said: "It is very difficult to replenish explosive gas. The Chissland does not produce explosive gas at all. What we get now are all sent from the rear of the empire and then transferred to us by those families. . In fact... if it weren't for your successful attacks that allowed us to seize a batch of separatist supplies, it would be difficult for our fleet to form a combat effectiveness."

"It's still very dangerous now. Our actions are still walking a tightrope. We can't make any mistakes." Thrawn said calmly.

"General, we always believe that under your leadership, we will never make mistakes!" the officer said with an admiring tone, "General, give the order!"

"Making all plans well is the prerequisite for making no mistakes. But now the failure of the imperial army makes it impossible for us to make any more mistakes. We must cause damage to the main fleet of the separatists." Thrawn said.

"What should we do next? General."

General Thrawn turned back again and looked at the holographic star map. A sneer gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said to himself: "General Eliz Al-Alani Ziara... long time no see. I must have Separatism puts a lot of pressure on you... and you can't find our position... Of course a proud person like you will not allow failure to happen. You urgently need a victory to prove your worth. Of course, in the end The important thing...is to prove that your choice is right.”

"General?" The officer couldn't keep up with Thrawn's thinking.

Thrawn waved his hand and said: "Inform all ships to prepare for battle within two hours. In addition, stop all transport ships and tell them that we have use for these spaceships."

"Yes, General."

Thrawn touched his chin and said slowly: "The actions of the fleet are invisible, but the supply line... is tangible. It is like a thread, always following behind the fleet... Your choice is actually It's not difficult to guess, General Chiara. But what disappoints me is that you can't see my command style now... Did the fall of Chisland make you lose yourself? Hehehehe..."

…

"General! We have analyzed the hyperspace fluctuations in the past three days and found that there are small but frequent signals near the planet Cam'co." A Chiss intelligence agent came In front of General Qiara, he called for a piece of information.

Admiral Chiara carefully checked the resulting information, and his face became a little solemn. She handed the information to Lieutenant General Lin Nanyi who was standing nearby and said, "Take a look at this."

"Similar hyperspace fluctuations have been detected frequently in recent months, but we have missed every time. Such fluctuations are not worthy of belief." Lin Nanyi said while receiving the information.

But soon, his expression became solemn.

"The core element was leaked?" Lin Nan blurted out.

"Yes, our technicians captured an abnormal hyperspace jump fluctuation, which was originally unable to be analyzed based on our data. But the technicians from the Kingdom of Dawn gave us a new set of data, so that we can distinguish it. This time The abnormal fluctuation was caused by the leakage of the core element, which caused the spacecraft's hyperspace navigation to accelerate abnormally. This caused the spacecraft to almost hit the mass projection of a star, but the safety device of the hyperspace engine forcibly interrupted the jump." said.

"Qisi Ling's spaceships are not equipped with core elements at all. The only spaceships equipped with core elements are the Galactic Empire." Lin Nan said with a solemn expression.

Core element is one of the few technologies in the Galactic Empire that is more advanced than the Kingdom of Dawn. This is an extremely efficient hyperdrive catalyst that uses core elements to produce higher hyperspace jump levels with a very small dose. This is a technology that was developed only after the Galactic Empire was reorganized and established.

This resulted in the Galactic Empire's warships of the same level using core elements, so their hyperspace levels were generally about 0.5 levels higher than those of the Kingdom of Dawn.

As an outsider, the Kingdom of Dawn actually obtained its hyperspace technology from the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire, so it is normal for them to lag behind in this area. After all, people have been playing with hyperspace for tens of thousands of years.

However, with the large-scale use of star gates, the little technical advantage brought by core elements to the Galactic Empire has become insignificant.

"A hyperspace jump accident..." Admiral Chiara said slowly, "This at least shows that there are Galactic Empire warships in that direction."

"But is this a fraud? The other party has always shown a very superb command level. Will they make such a mistake?" Lin Nanyi hesitated.

Since the Galactic Empire began to intervene in the Chiss Territory, he has suffered more defeats than the total number of defeats since he joined the army, which makes the pride in his heart somewhat hesitant.

"No matter how powerful the commander is, he cannot foresee the failure of the spacecraft. What's more..." Admiral Chiara was very serious, "The Galactic Empire is not familiar with the chaotic hyperspace routes. Under various overloads, It’s normal for the hyperspace engines on their warships to malfunction. I think we can’t miss this opportunity... Get ready to go immediately!”

Lin Nan shook his head and said: "General Chiara, as Pope Anita of the Holy Advent Sect said the day before yesterday, the Holy Advent Sect has already begun to take action. Should we wait for their results?"

General Chiara snorted coldly, "Huh! I don't trust those magicians! They may be able to brainwash, but this is war, how can I expect such a group of godly people to command the army?! Since If a fighter plane appears, we must not miss it! It doesn’t matter if there are traps, we have an absolute strength advantage! Gather the fleet immediately!”

Lin Nan had to nod. General Chiara is the highest military officer of Chisland. This appointment has been repeatedly emphasized by Tang Xiao, the King of Dawn. For the Kingdom of Dawn’s unstable rule in Chisland, this is a very necessary political correctness and should not be tolerated. Wrong.

What Admiral Chiara did not say was that she was indeed very anxious now.

In fact, she has always been quite critical of the family system of Qisi Ling. She believes that this is one of the important reasons that restricts the development of Qisi Ling. So after experiencing the invasion of the Kingdom of Dawn and being unable to stop it, she began to think about the problem from another angle.

The development and growth of the Kingdom of Dawn is unstoppable, and the Chisi Territory cannot resist. In this case, it is better to use the powerful strength of the Kingdom of Dawn to help the Chisi Territory get rid of its stubborn diseases, become more energetic, healthier, and become a stronger and more powerful nation. Prosperous Chisland.

If this is the case, it would be a relatively acceptable solution.

So she accepted the conditions of the Kingdom of Dawn and became the supreme military commander of the new puppet regime of the Chissland. To put it bluntly, she was also the top horseman of the Kingdom of Dawn in the Chissland.

Because of this, Admiral Chiara must prove that her choice is correct. She joined the Kingdom of Dawn and used their power to eradicate the family power. Only in this way can she maintain her inner belief—— She didn't betray Chisling, she just wanted Chisling to become better.

However, in the recent battles, the Imperial fleet, which was obviously supported by the remnants of the family, repeatedly defeated her. This made her blame herself very much, and she began to think that she was not capable of doing what she wanted to do. On the other hand, is the family system really despised by everyone? Why do they still have such powerful power even though they have been eradicated once?

This gave Admiral Chiara some doubts.

So, she must deliver a victory!

…

On August 19, Admiral Chiara asked Lieutenant General Lin Nanyi to stay on the planet Hisla, and he personally led 60 battleships to attack the planet Kam-Co!

The reason why the light cruiser was not brought was because the battleship's hyperspace engine level was higher, so it could maneuver faster and reach the location where the abnormality occurred faster.

She believes that no one around the Qisi Territory can compete with a huge fleet of 60 battleships! This time, she did not plan to give the Imperial fleet any chance, because according to judgment, the intervention force sent by the Galactic Empire would not exceed 15 capital ships!

On August 22, Admiral Chiara's fleet arrived on the planet Kam-Co, and in the asteroid belt of the system, she discovered a transport fleet trying to hide.

…

General Thrawn once again achieved a great victory, inflicting heavy damage on the main fleet led by Admiral Chiara, the Chissland's highest military commander. This hour was only two days later, on August 24, when he was defeated by the Governor of the Ninth Army of the Galactic Empire, Northern Territory. King Dunn - Received by Wessex.

After receiving the good news, Dunn Wessex was overjoyed. He jumped up from the office and shouted loudly: "Quick! Quick! Give this good news to His Majesty the Emperor immediately! No... no... I need it. Send an envoy! That’s right, let everyone in the empire know that only I can defeat separatism! Hahahahaha!”

His wife Lila Wessex also came over, nestled in his arms affectionately, and praised: "You are my hero... dear. Your glorious victory makes those who only know how to blame failure You are the real soldier, the hero of the empire!"

Dunn Wessex was extremely pleased with his wife's flattery. He laughed again, "Hahahahaha! Darth Vader and Wilhuff Tarkin, this time they should know that they will never be able to Shake my status! As for the clown Allman Tag, he is destined to be just a joke, hahahaha!”

Lila Wessex also echoed: "I think we should pursue the victory and achieve more decisive results! If we can capture the Chiss Territory in one fell swoop, then there is no doubt that you will be the number one person under His Majesty the Emperor. "

"What do you think? Tell me." Dunn Wessex was in a good mood now. He smiled and patted Lila's buttocks and asked.

"There are many people in the empire who feel that our fleet formation idea is wrong. They believe that we should not focus on fleet decisive battles, but find ways to enhance anti-aircraft firepower... This is the biggest slander against us. This time General Thrawn's victory , It just shows that the fleet decisive battle is our most correct path! And this path will be defined by us!" Lila Wessex said with bright eyes.
