Chapter 2298 The disappeared fleet


2299. The disappearing fleet

11BBY, August 3. Dawn Planet, the capital of Dawn Principality, Supreme Combat Command, Conference Room 03.

"Planet Lundili! It's the planet Lundili!!" Defense Minister Cheng Shitao poked the holographic star map hard and said in a deep voice: "We are unable to detect the military movements of the Galactic Empire because Their current fleet is all assembled in the center of the empire!"

"This matter is basically determined. But the question is, how many warships do they plan to mobilize?" Acting Navy Chief Commander Karls Wharton frowned, "Is there any reaction from the hyperspace outpost?"

Military Intelligence Minister Saratan Moss said: "It is very difficult to monitor the hyperspace fluctuations in the center of the empire. Fortunately, the population of the Empire Center is as high as one trillion, so we still have many informants inside. According to the information we currently have, there are no signs of large-scale fleet gathering around the Empire Center.”

"Where did the fleet that withdrew from the Trade Federation go?" Model Sector Governor Volgograd-Kanidi asked.

"After completing the renovation at the dock in the center of the empire, he left immediately. The severely damaged warship also went to the planet Kuat for repairs, and left immediately after the end, with no sign of gathering at all." Saratan-Mo Si's face was very ugly. As the Minister of Intelligence, it was a major dereliction of duty on his part to lose control of the location of the Empire's main fleet.

"So, where did their fleet go? Recently, the empire reduced the strength of the border garrison. Where are the warships that were withdrawn?" Army Commander-in-Chief Xian Hui rubbed the bridge of his nose and put the cigarette butt in the ashtray. Press up to turn it off.

The ashtray is full of cigarette butts.

"It could be anywhere. But... it is indeed not among the currently known military bases." Saratan Moss replied.

"Where is the rebel army? How many imperial warships are participating in the suppression of the rebel army now?" Ling Liang asked.

“The rebel army is not willing to share military intelligence with us. We can only calculate based on the existing intelligence. Currently, there are about 1,400 main imperial warships participating in suppressive operations in various places. Stationed in the northern border to resist The number of Geth warships has decreased, to about 2,500. The planets of Fondo and Kira each have 1,000 warships stationed for training, and about 3,900 warships are in garrison status. Therefore, the number of missing battleships is around 3,000," Saratan Moss replied, "Even excluding the inaccurate part of our monitoring, I am afraid that at least 1,000 battleships are missing."

Chief of General Staff Qi Jian shook his head, then looked at Severance Tann, who had come to Dawn Planet to attend the scene, and asked: "What do you think? General Tann."

"If I were in charge, my fleet would have already started attacking while you were suspicious." Severance Tann said coldly, "And the commander-in-chief of the other side is Darth Vay. Da, with his style, will make the same choice."

"If the empire has launched an attack, where are they?" Qi Jian knocked on the table, feeling very excited. Irritated, "To what extent are the defense preparations for the planet Rendili reached?"

"Admiral Trench has arrived at Rendili Planet, and all warships and defense systems have entered combat mode." Cheng Shitao replied, "The remaining question now is where the enemy is. I have asked Admiral Trench to expand the investigation "

Severance Tann suddenly said: "Continue to expand! Expand the scope of exploration to several unmanned galaxies around the Rendili Galaxy!"

Cheng Shitao Diandian! The boss said, "Okay. I'll make arrangements."

......

On the afternoon of August 4th, the Rendili Planet Command Center.

"I need...the reconnaissance team to report every hour! Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..." Admiral Trench stroked the chelicerae near his mouth with both hands, while the other hand held a pointer and tapped the palm of his hand gently. , "Hyperspace outpost, report every 10 minutes...Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Sometimes his movements always make people feel that having six hands is willful. "Yes!" A naval officer of the Principality of Dawn stood at attention and saluted, and then immediately made arrangements.

"Hmm..." Admiral Trench squinted his eyes, looked at the holographic battle star map, and pondered.

Planet Rendili, since Rendili Interstellar Power Company betrayed the Galactic Republic and joined the Fourth Civilization, this planet has been heavily fortified. The outermost edge of this line of defense is a huge number of hyperspace blockers.

These hyperspace blockers first block all major hyperspace channels connected to the planet. All ships that want to enter the Rendili planet must first leave hyperspace in front of the hyperspace blockers, and they will only get it after applying. Temporary authorization to allow entry into blocker range. Then make an ultra-short jump to the outer reaches of the planet.

And in order to prevent enemy fleets from emerging from some temporary hyperspace channels, more than 10 billion blockers have been deployed on the periphery of the entire galaxy, almost surrounding the entire galaxy.

Coupled with the deployment of more than 70,000 hyperspace outposts around it, it can be said that any fluctuations will be difficult to escape monitoring.

These peripheral defense facilities can buy Rendili planet at least three to seven days, and can make the enemy unable to hide.

Then inside the galaxy, there are as many as 150,000 vulture robot fighters equipped with special reconnaissance equipment patrolling. These robot fighters do not have hyperspace engines and rely solely on sublight engines to slowly fly to patrol positions. They are all robots anyway, and time doesn’t matter at all.

After that, there are monitoring facilities and defense facilities built on those planets.

There are a total of 9 planets in the Lundilli Galaxy, of which Lundilli is the third planet. Monitoring equipment and even certain orbital defense weapons have been built on the six outer planets.

At the end is the final defense system around the planet Rendili.

It can be said that among the various defenses, the planet Rendili is completely indestructible. It’s impossible to imagine any fleet capable of capturing this place! And under the combined effect of these defense systems, Rendili Planet will always have sufficient preparation time.

But the problem is...the enemy is there...

Admiral Trench looked at the system's defense system over and over again, thinking over and over again.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on the vulture robots patrolling the galaxy with sub-light engines. His eyes suddenly shrank, he slapped the table and shouted loudly: "No! The Imperial fleet does not attack through hyperspace channels!! Notify Dawn Planet immediately!!"

...

At the same time, in an unknown space, an extremely large fleet is sailing silently.

This fleet is extremely large in number, and all of them are capital ships, reaching a terrifying 700 ships! At least half of them are extremely powerful Imperial-class Star Destroyers, and some also include battleships such as the Chaser-class aircraft carrier and the Victory II-class Star Destroyer. There are even Commander II-class dreadnoughts and an extremely large flat battleship - the Executor-class super Star Destroyer!

On the extremely luxurious bridge of this Executor-class super Star Destroyer, a man wearing pitch black armor and a black cloak stood quietly in the center, breathing heavily from under his completely closed helmet...

"Huh...chih...huh...chih...huh...chih..." (End of this chapter)
