2431. Cut off an arm
The administrative core of the northern theater of the Galactic Empire, the planet Palin-Minor.
White light flashed, and a dilapidated fleet appeared in the space outside the planet. The appearance of this fleet was extremely miserable. The shields of almost every battleship were broken, the main armor belt was riddled with holes, and a large number of locations were on fire and smoking.
There is no doubt that this is the fleet led by Thrawn returning victoriously.
This fleet initially had a size of more than 800 capital ships, but Admiral Gilad Pellaeon commanded the fleet to launch a battle against the Malarian Alliance, but was defeated by Mal Took and suffered heavy losses. Later, when Mal-Took attacked the planet Birbrin, under the command of Lieutenant General Ozil, he forced a counterattack and suffered another defeat.
By then, there wasn't much left of the fleet. After receiving some reinforcements, the number of capital ships barely reached 300, and many battleships were more or less injured.
Thrawn led such a fleet to defeat Admiral Mal-Took's menacing merchant fleet!
Later, he received some supplements, keeping the number of his capital ships at around 300. But you must know that this is the third battle in a row that this fleet has fought.
Immediately afterwards, Severance Tann, who had been famous for a long time and was known as the strongest general in the galaxy, attacked again with the Titan battleship Archangel, known as the strongest battleship in the galaxy. If you include light cruisers, Severance Tann's strength is twice that of Thrawn!
Moreover, the quality of the battleships on both sides is also different. The Hells Angel-class battlecruiser needs the Imperial-class Star Destroyer to fight against it. The other battlecruisers including the Behemoth-class, Doomsday Arena-class, and Dunov-class battlecruisers also have a comprehensive combat capability. It is stronger than the Victory II-class Star Destroyer. The most important thing is that these battleships all have complementary advantages and have their own characteristics.
However, with such a dilapidated fleet, and after receiving reinforcements from the Executor-class Super Star Destroyer whose combat effectiveness was obviously inferior to that of the Archangel, Thrawn actually ended the battle with Severance Tann, with both sides suffering similar losses. !
To put it bluntly, the Kingdom of Dawn had 870,000 casualties and the Galactic Empire had more than 1.2 million casualties. The difference in the number of casualties of more than 400,000 was purely due to the fact that the battleships of the Kingdom of Dawn carried fewer crew members!
Even at the end of the battle, Thrawn still led the remnant army to cut off the rear and cover the heart of Governor Dunne-Wessex - the Lila Super Star Destroyer before they returned to Palin. -Planet Minor.
Standing next to Thrawn, Adjutant Rael Benteen could not hide the excitement in his eyes. He said loudly: "General! We won! We really won!! Even the separatist Titan battleships are here. Stopped in front of us!”
The other officers around him all cheered.
Indeed, it is not easy! It’s not easy! Especially the officers and soldiers standing on the flagship now, most of them have participated in the series of battles in the North. No one knows better than them how powerful the Kingdom of Dawn's warships are, how excellent the commanders are, and how weird the technology is.
But, they won, really won! Even the so-called invincible Titan battleship was beaten and caught on fire, and had to return to Hong Kong for overhaul.
Doesn't such a fleet, such naval officers and such a commander deserve a warm welcome? Doesn’t it deserve flowers and applause?
However, Admiral Thrawn, who had created this miracle, just stood there quietly, motionless, with no expression on his face.
"General?" Rael Benting asked tentatively. After he saw Thrawn's expression, he suddenly understood something, and his face suddenly turned pale, "No... no way?" < br>
"Yes, Colonel Rael. Yes." Thrawn shook his head.
...Thawn's fleet indeed received the warmest welcome. After his fleet left hyperspace, he saw the Lila super Star Destroyer as the leader, plus the one in the hands of Dunn Wessex. The new fleet is already waiting here.
The Lila is in the middle, and the other battleships are on the sides.
Although the appearance is also extremely miserable, and there are still many fire spots on the ship that have not been extinguished, the Lila still looks so majestic under the guard of the Dunn-Wessex fleet.
There was complete silence in the communication. Although the battle was indeed grand, there were no flowers, no applause, and no cheers. There was only silence and the fleet opposite.
Thrawn let out an inaudible sigh.
At the same time, the Chimera's console suddenly sounded an extremely sharp alarm!
"General! We...we are locked by the fire control radar!!" The radar soldier screamed loudly, "What is locked to us...no, it is...is the Lila Super Star Destroyer!!"
"General... they..." Rael Benting had a sad look in his eyes, and he already understood everything.
"The Chimera is calling the Lila, we are our own people! We are our own people!" The signal soldier began to call, but there was no reply.
Just a moment ago, he fought bloody battles with them, and even used his huge body and powerful shield to defend them against the attacks of the Titan battleship Hercules on many occasions. It can be said that without the fearless battle of the Lila Super Star Destroyer, they would not even be qualified to stand opposite the Archangel!
But now, the Lila is pointing its guns at them, at the comrades who were fighting side by side a few hours ago...

There was no hesitation.
"No need to call. Lower the shields, shut down the engines, and shut down the weapon systems." Thrawn said.
"General...we, did we win?" The radar soldier turned back and looked at Thrawn blankly.
"Who knows?" Thrawn said this lightly, then gave a military salute to the other officers and soldiers on the bridge, turned around and walked out.
He went straight to the hangar platform, arranged his white military uniform meticulously, and then stood there like a sculpture.
A moment later, a Lambda-class shuttle flew in and stopped unceremoniously in front of Thrawn. The hatch opened, and dozens of clone soldiers wearing white polymer alloy armor walked down. These soldiers immediately picked up the blaster rifles in their hands and drove everyone else away. At the same time, several of the soldiers came to Thrawn. In front of you.
An Imperial Navy officer wearing a gray uniform and a captain's rank badge came over, looked at Thrawn and said coldly: "Chiss, Mith-ro-Nurudo Thrawn. You are suspected of dereliction of duty. 17 charges including the crime of disobeying military orders, the crime of mistaken command leading to large-scale casualties, etc. According to the instructions of Dunn-Wessex, the governor of the Ninth Army of the Empire, you are deprived of the position of admiral and will be immediately sent to the Northern Military Tribunal. Accept the trial.”(End of Chapter)
