The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

837. The Lost Fleet (8)

This news shocked the Galactic Council, because the Jiwen people have been very firm in declaring their neutral galaxy status from the beginning of the war until now. They do not allow the spacecraft of the Confederation of Independent Systems to pass by, nor do they allow the spacecraft of the Galactic Republic to pass by.

It is precisely because of this that the Yager-Dur galaxy has become a wall between the jurisdictions of the 18th Army, the 19th Army and the 20th Army of the Galactic Republic.

But now, it is revealed that the Jiwen people are building warships on a large scale in the Jager-Dur galaxy?

Facing the accusation of the Galactic Republic, the members of the Chiven people stated that they built warships entirely for self-protection, and they guaranteed that the warships they built had never been used in war.

However, the speaker, Heev Palpatine, who has already smelled it, insisted on it, and demanded that an investigation team be sent to investigate what the Jiven people did in their own galaxy. If so, what warships were produced and how many were produced?

The Jiwen people were naturally unwilling to kill them, claiming that this act of the Galactic Republic was trampling on their sovereignty, and they resolutely resisted it. Moreover, this behavior of the Galactic Republic is tantamount to slapping all neutral planets in the face, disregarding the Constitution of the Galactic Republic, and using power and dictatorship in the name of war.

The two sides were arguing endlessly in the parliament, but the Ji Wen people were obviously wrong in this matter. The representative of the Trade Union, Lott Dude, had just experienced the Plague's raid on the Nubian planet, and now he could not guarantee himself and dared not speak up to support it. , Only the representative of the Interstellar Banking Association came out to argue a few words, but his voice was quickly drowned out.

At this time, Octavian, the governor of the 20th Army, had no time to continue arguing with the Jivin people. He led a fleet of 15 Jaeger-class battlecruisers across the Yager-Dur galaxy and continued towards the Halm galaxy. go ahead.

But at this time, the fourth civilization took the lead. They responded earlier than the Galactic Republic, and they were also closer to the Halm galaxy. The C fleet led by Admiral Trench had arrived here two days ago. There were only a few small colonies on the Harm planet, and they surrendered immediately without any resistance.

The Halm galaxy was originally under the jurisdiction of the 19th Army of the Galactic Republic. After the destruction of the 19th Army, the Fourth Civilization didn't bother to pay attention to this planet, and they simply declared neutrality. But now, the administrators of the Harm planet couldn't think of it, how can He De, a remote planet that doesn't shit like a bird, be able to attract such a huge fleet?

After Admiral Trench occupied the planet Halm, he immediately requisitioned the only spaceport on the planet, and began to deploy defense lines, build a Gauss weapon platform, and set up empty mine positions, waiting for the arrival of the Republic fleet.

At the same time, he also summoned the best navigators, and wanted to send the three Rucrehook-class battleships filled with Granite marines to the Blade Fleet.

21BBY, on January 14, Octavian Grant, governor of the 20th Army of the Galactic Republic, led a fleet to the Harm galaxy and exchanged fire with Admiral Trench's defense fleet. Facing the iron barrel array arranged by Admiral Trench, the Republic fleet returned without success, and neither side had an advantage. After a melee, Octavian withdrew the fleet to the asteroid belt of the Halm galaxy for repairs.

On January 15th, Tang Xiao, the leader of the Fourth Civilization, arrived in the Harm galaxy on Cunte's Astro-class frigate. However, he did not participate in this offensive and defensive battle. After meeting with Admiral Trench, he returned to Cunte's spaceship and began to think of ways to connect through this area without hyperspace channels, but the distance is 11.7 light years. area, arriving at the location of the Blade Fleet.

In fact, strictly speaking, it is not that there is no hyperspace channel connection at all, but the hyperspace here is very unstable and intermittent. If the hyperspace connection of the spaceship is suddenly interrupted during the jump, the protective equipment on the hyperspace engine will force the spaceship to exit the hyperspace and appear in the void of the universe in order to prevent accidents, waiting for the next connection.

Because when the hyperspace channel sails, although the mass projections of those stars and planets have to be avoided, the coordinates of the hyperspace channel are also determined according to these mass projections. But the Blade Fleet is in a void without any stars, so it is naturally more difficult to locate.

The escort fleet that the Fourth Civilization sent there before seized a good opportunity for a hyperspace connection and flew there.

As for Shen Jon, he uses the force to navigate, so even if there is no hyperspace channel, he can keep the spacecraft in hyperspace and sail at a relative speed beyond the speed of light.

...

At the same time, on the side of the Blade Fleet, the battle between the fleet led by Severance Tann and the fleet of Ith Kos has been extremely fierce.

Unlike the two sides in the Halm galaxy who are still testing each other and are unwilling to lose too much strength, in front of the huge cake of the Blade Fleet, Severance Tann and Ith Kos are completely refusing to give up an inch.

However, the balance of victory has begun to tilt towards Severance Tann. The Republic Fleet was attacked by a large group of Z-95 fighter jets that suddenly appeared, and soon fell into chaos. Almost all warships were fighting on their own. And was hit by a large number of proton torpedoes, and the shield was in jeopardy.

Then they were attacked by the Fourth Civilization Fleet, and soon the shields of two Jaeger-class battlecruisers were penetrated, and then they were severely injured and caught fire under more attacks, and they had to flee in a panic behind the front line.

The situation of the other three Jaeger-class ships is also very bad. This battle has reached the brink of failure. They are slowly retreating and want to withdraw from the area where the Blade Fleet is located.

At this moment, Shen-Jon finally couldn't sit still anymore. He connected to Ith-Kose's communication and said loudly: "Stop retreating! We should continue to stay in the formation of the Blade Fleet!"

"Don't you know that the hangar platforms of the warships in the Blade Fleet are all occupied by separatism?" The situation is urgent, and it is even more impossible for Is-Kos to give Shen-Jon any good looks.

"No! They just occupied the hangar! They didn't control the warships! Immediately send the marines to land on the warships of the Blade Fleet, and they can control one of them!" Shen-Jon said.

Is-Cos just woke up like a dream, and hurriedly commanded all the fighters to withdraw to cover the landing of the Marine Corps on the Blade Fleet.

One of their biggest advantages is that they can get the keys of the battleships of the Blade Fleet, and they can directly activate the battleships without cracking them!

"After starting the engine, give priority to supplying energy to the turret! This will allow the turret of the battleship to fire within 20 minutes!" Shen-Jon continued.

"Okay!" Ice-Cos immediately made arrangements.

A large number of clone troopers took shuttles and began to land on the Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers of the Blade Fleet under the cover of V-19 Torrent fighter jets.

Seeing this scene, Severance Tann sneered coldly, "Haha, put the cart before the horse! Ignore those shuttles! Continue to attack the Jaeger-class battlecruiser with all your strength!"

"If this continues, we will still lose." Shen Qiaoen looked at the battlefield situation map and kept calculating the battle situation. "There is only one way!"

"What way?" During the communication, Ice-Cos couldn't care more, so he hurriedly asked.

Shen Jon looked at the broken body of the Plague, and said fiercely: "Kill Severance Tann!"
