Chapter 744 Battle Plan
743. Battle Plan
“Qi Jian, Chief of Staff of the Fourth Civilization, report to the Governor!” Qi Jian stood in front of the Governor’s office, puffing out his chest and shouting loudly.
He is wearing the light gray military uniform of the staff, and the epaulettes on his shoulders also indicate his current military rank - general.
Considering that he is now less than 40 years old, such a military rank is indeed a miracle. On the one hand, this is what will inevitably happen in the growing Fourth Civilization. On the other hand, it is also the result of Qi Jian’s 13 years of hard work, step by step.
Qi Jian was originally one of the civilian staff awakened by the mastermind. He was appointed as the temporary chief of staff by Tang Xiao just because his name was interesting. Moreover, as an ordinary-level figure, Qi Jian also showed that he actually had no achievements before. and accomplished.
He just walked step by step. Although he was cautious and lacked adventurous spirit, he rarely made mistakes in his work and completed everything responsibly. It is precisely because of this that his status is as stable as a mountain in the ever-expanding fourth civilization, and the tide is rising.
Now, there are some traces of time on his face. Although he has been in the office for a long time, his body shape is not that standard, but from his bright eyes, you can see that he Inner energy and enthusiasm.
The office door opened silently, Qi Jian straightened his clothes again and walked in.
Tang Xiao was sitting at his desk, with his hands crossed to support his chin, looking at him expressionlessly, "Come to me while I'm meditating. You must have a reason to do this, Qi Jian. In other words, you must have it.”
Qi Jian's heart trembled inexplicably, but he still said in a loud voice: "Your Excellency, the General Staff of the Fourth Civilization, the Supreme Combat Command and the Commander-in-Chief of Fleet A, Admiral Matt Horner, have proposed a combat plan. , please take a look."
"Tell me." Tang Xiao said lightly.
“This is a plan to attack the planet Terminus.” Qi Jian said: “Judging from the current deployment of our army, the Given people’s Yag-Dur planet and the Gran people The Golden Rock Planet has temporarily isolated us from the advance route of the Republic's 20th Army, and Admiral Severance Tann's B Fleet is facing off against the Republic's 18th Army on the planet Glenzon. Therefore, if we want to open In terms of the situation, the planet Terminus will be a very good direction."
"Answer me two questions" Tang Xiao remained expressionless, "First, the planet Terminus is. It is a neutral planet. Our previous attack on the neutral planet Bespin was already very risky. If such things happen again and again, it will affect the expansion of the influence of the Independent System Confederation and be very passive politically. "< br>
Qi Jian replied: "Although the planet Terminus claims to be neutral, their political tendency is still to move closer to the Galactic Republic. In fact, they are also providing a large amount of materials and supplies to the 18th Army of the Republic. Although It doesn’t involve war preparation materials, but food and medicine are also very important.”
He continued: "...So we can pressure them to stop the transportation work in this area and force them to stand in line. Then, there is another plan. We have smuggled a large number of banned stimulants and spices into the Special Administrative Region through Mr. Ni Yongxiao. Planet Erminus, as long as you use these things to create a public incident, then whether it is the Galactic Republic or we personally intervene, we can create an excuse to send troops."
Tang Xiao nodded and said. : "Then the second question is, the hyperspace channel from the planet Terminus to our army's Bespin planet base is not stable, so the logistics pressure is great. And the link from this planet to the planet Eriadu, the headquarters of the 18th Army The hyperspace channel is the Corellian trade route - one of the busiest hyperspace channels in the galaxy. How can we fight a large-scale battle with the Galactic Republic here when our fleet itself has no advantage. ?" Qi Jian replied confidently: "The recent offensive launched by General Grievous has almost shaken the entire defense line of the Galactic Republic. The pressure on the 18th Army is very huge, because after this series of battles, the adjacent 17th and 2nd Army are under great pressure. The 15th Army is now fully prepared for the next phase of General Grievous's offensive. The 18th Army will be isolated and helpless for a short time. In addition, the Governor of the 18th Army, Wilhuff Tarkin, was also assassinated by our agents. Being seriously injured and unable to take charge, this is the best time for us to take the initiative to attack! If we miss this opportunity, when the Republic recovers with its own productivity, we may be under great pressure.”

Tang Xiao frowned, he didn't feel good about this battle. However, the Force in the entire galaxy is now in chaos, and people as powerful as Master Yoda cannot see through the future of the galaxy. And the reason why he can see it is mainly because he knows the direction of the future plot.
But the battle proposed by Qi Jian is actually beyond the scope of the original plot, and if it is said that it does not matter if he predicts some small things, Tang Xiao's current dark side force is also extremely powerful. But when it comes to the outcome of a battle, there are too many things involved, and there is no doubt that the opponent also has a Jedi Master sitting on his side, so he can only make decisions through his own feelings and judgment.
However, it feels...really not good.
Refuse? What Qi Jian said is indeed very reasonable. Now the fourth article is clearly blocked by the 18th Army and must find a way to break through their blockade. However, the areas controlled by the fourth civilization are all remote areas, and the hyperspace channels are very complicated, which is not conducive to the operation of large-scale fleets.
Moreover, compared to other armies, the 18th Army of the Republic is indeed the hardest nut to crack. There is no doubt about Wilhuff Tarkin's ability. At the end of the Republic, he could be said to be one of the top five commanders in the entire galaxy.
Now that such a strongman was seriously injured by Gabriel Tosh's assassination, it is difficult not to say that this is an opportunity.
As long as it can surpass the 18th Army, the Fourth Civilization will be able to border the large areas controlled by the Confederation of Independent Systems, so that it can better develop its own strategy. As for the mediocre 17th Army and 15th Army, they will definitely not be opponents!
It would be great if Severance Tann was here, Tang Xiao thought.
If it were her, then the chance of success in conquering the planet Terminus might be much greater.
Unfortunately, Tann is now leading the Titan battleship Plague to conduct a raid on the planet Cato-Neimoidia.
So... do you agree?
Tang Xiao made up his mind, "Yes, on the premise of ensuring the integrity of our defense zone, I agree to launch an attack on the planet Terminus!"
