Chapter 701: Stopped Steps [Wish you all a happy new year, may the tiger be vigorous and powerful~~]

700, Stopped Steps

After the Ewoks joined the battle, Lotta People's plan to fight guerrilla warfare on the planet has completely failed. The ensuing retaliation and purge immediately swept the entire planet.

Millions of people were implicated, arrested, and then sent to work in mines with harsh conditions. It is estimated that only three out of ten will survive.

However, the Lotta people are fierce by nature. Even so, they still set off several armed riots. After Huang Yehao's unit completed the arrest mission, it made many attacks to fight the militants.

Huang Yehao and Cummings witnessed with their own eyes the weapons in the hands of the militants changed from rocket launchers and blaster rifles to pistols, homemade bombs, and then to wooden sticks and long knives, but the resistance continued.

Their blood is getting colder and colder, and their eyes looking at the opposite side of the position are getting colder and colder.

There is a saying that is right, you cannot change the war, then you can only wait for the war to change you.

As time enters September of 22 BBY, the flames of resistance on the planets Lota and Haven are gradually extinguished. No matter how much the residents of these two planets hate it in their hearts, they can only bury it deep in their hearts. Order was gradually restored, and workers, farmers, and administrative staff returned to their posts one after another, and then began working under the supervision of robots.

While continuing to eliminate the remaining forces of the 19th Army, the Fourth Civilization also began to adjust its defense forces in a targeted manner.

The planet Karl, which had previously been an important line of defense for the 19th Army, was no longer so important. The Fourth Civilization began to move its defense forces north to the Golden Rock planet where the Gran people belonged. This place can block the imminent moves of the 20th Army of the Republic, and can also secretly support the activities of the Given people on the planet Yag-Dur. Once the news that the Given people are members of the Confederation of Independent Systems can no longer be concealed, then the Golden Rock Planet will be the support An important fulcrum in the defense operations of the Yage-Dur planet.

The Raz-class heavy engineering ship began to go to the Golden Rock Planet to start building a new Agniev-class interstellar base. The huge mineral transport ships of the United Mining Group constantly travel between the planet Karl and the Golden Rock Planet, transporting the wreckage of several Republic heavy-armed space stations that were originally destroyed on the defense line of the planet Karl as part of the raw materials for building the interstellar base.

And once this Agonev-class interstellar base is completed, the Gran people can only completely surrender to the fourth civilization. Otherwise, this interstellar base is capable of burning glass directly on the Golden Rock Planet. of.

In addition, the Fourth Civilization Fleet A captured the planet Manpha and stationed directly here. There are tens of millions of Shawda Ubb people living on the planet Manfa. This is a small amphibious race with very backward civilization and technology. They have not yet gotten rid of the primitive tribal society and are still in the early stages of preparing to integrate into the republic society. level.

However, there is still a spaceport on the planet Manfa, Shanpan Spaceport.

After the Fourth Civilization occupied Manfa Planet, Shanpan Port became busy, and the daily cargo throughput almost immediately made this originally small space port almost explode. As a last resort, Matt Horner could only withdraw two-thirds of the fleet to the rear.

The deployment on Manfa Planet mainly threatens the edge transportation hub of the 18th Army of the Republic - Terminus Planet. This is also the planet that Matt Horner has been obsessed with before, hoping to use the power of the Plague to destroy it. A place to conquer.

In fact, his opinion is not unreasonable, because if you want to attack the planet Terminus, the only and most convenient hyperspace route is through the planet Manfa.

However, the backward planet Manfa is simply unable to support the logistical supplies for large-scale fleet operations, while the planet Terminus has a complete industrial and logistics system. These two huge differences make the Fourth Civilization very vulnerable to special forces. The attack on the planet Erminus was very difficult.

On the contrary, once the planet Terminus is captured, the Fourth Civilization's strategic space for the 18th Army will suddenly become clearer. Not to mention having an advantage, at least it will be able to move freely.

Therefore, if it can be conquered in one fell swoop with the help of the Plague, then there will be no need to worry about the logistics of Planet Manfa. Unfortunately, Tang Xiao finally chose Severance Tann's other more radical and risky plan -

Assault on Cato Neimoidia. But as Tang Xiao said, this was a decision made from the perspective of Darth Malthael.

After all, the reason why the Trade Federation joined the Confederation of Independent Systems was indeed brokered by his master, Hego Damask II, but in the end, Newt Gunray was The person who held the position of Governor of the Trade Federation and brought the Trade Federation into the ranks of separatism was Darth Sidious.

So the Trade Federation can be said to be the direct lineage of Darth Sidious - of course, the kind of direct lineage that is fattened and then slaughtered.

However, the direct lineage is the direct lineage after all, and now the Trade Federation still follows the instructions of Darth Sidious.

However, for Darth Malthael, the cowardly and wavering Newt Gunray is an object that can be fought for and one that must be fought for!

Now Newt Gunray has a good relationship with the Fourth Civilization. The main reason is that he thinks that Tang Xiao is the same as him and was pulled aboard by Darth Sidious, so he shares the same problem. But if we start with such a relationship and then slowly implant Darth Malthael's fear into Newt Gunray's heart, there is a chance that Newt Gunray can be won over.

Sending the Plague directly into Cato Neimoidia is an opportunity to show Newt Gunray the powerful dark side power of Darth Malthael.

You must know that the end of the Clone War started when Newt Gunray entered the password to shut down all combat robots in the entire Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Why Darth Sidious has the confidence to say that the war will end when he wants it to end? This is one of the biggest reliances.

If this reliance becomes Darth Malthael's, it will be a disaster.

Compared with this, it is not so unacceptable to throw Matt Horner into the swamps of the planet Manfa, and work hard to expand the spaceport and build infrastructure. Something happened.

Fleet B, temporarily led by Lin Nanyi, is stationed on the planet Glensong. On the one hand, it echoes the planet Haven and defends this planet, which can be said to be the fourth civilization after the Dawn planet. The important planet, on the other hand, occupies this hyperspace channel that can lead directly to the capital of the 18th Army of the Republic, the planet Eriadu.

There is no doubt that this hyperspace channel is cut off by countless air mines and hyperspace blockers. It is impossible to go directly there, but it has also become the gateway of the Fourth Civilization and the 18th Army. The site of a direct fleet confrontation.

...

During this period of time, the Fourth Civilization actually had no time to continue its external expansion, so Tang Xiao also focused his energy on consolidating his rule in the occupied areas.

But this does not mean that he can let the future famous Wilhuff Tarkin, the governor of the 18th Army of the Galactic Republic, sleep peacefully.

Others don’t know what Ta Jin’s future will be like, but Tang Xiao knows it all.

As the first high-level sector governor after the establishment of the Galactic Empire, and also the highest-ranking military leader under Emperor Darth Sidious, Wilhuff Tarkin will be in the foreseeable future. , will be a very difficult and powerful enemy!
