1370, Fist of Tarkin
Two months ago, Galactic Republic Supreme Strategic Command, central command center.
A combat report has been placed on the table of the command center. This is a huge combat organization plan.
It involves 31 galaxies, 9 industrial planets, 17 agricultural planets, and 42 interstellar mines, with a total supply of more than 200 billion tons of huge materials. Covers detailed process plans for production, transportation, loading and unloading, receiving, etc.
It even includes transportation route maps, escort fleet numbers and arrangements, defense changes at various stages, advance arrangements and detection of hyperspace channels, etc. Everything is so that this huge batch of materials can be transported to the target location.
The establishment of the combat fleet has also been submitted. There are a total of 170 transport ships. The troops that can be transported by 5 Acclamator-class assault ship are escorted by 40 Hunter Class Battlecruiser to ensure that they can reach the target safely.
This huge fleet will undoubtedly be undertaken by Kuat Drive Yards. On the administrative order for fleet deployment and manufacturing, the names of Chancellor of the Galactic Senate Sheev-Palpatine are clearly signed. This administrative order involves an order for hundreds of warships, and the allocation of these warships is also directly related to Galactic Republic's future fleet allocation and offensive planning.
However, during the final review and approval, the escort warship plan was rejected, and only 5 Hunter Class Battlecruiser and some Kallak-class light cruiser that had withdrawn from the front-line combat order were approved.
The main reason for rejection was that Separatists no longer had an organized fleet near the attack target.
But apart from that, other material requirements and personnel requirements have been approved! An army of up to 7 million natural people has begun to assemble on four planets, and a simulated environment has been set up to strengthen training based on the topography of the target planet.
At the same time, a large number of armored units including AT-TE walkers, TX-130 Saber hover tanks, AV-7 self-propelled artillery, Zephyr-G hover motorcycles and Turbo Tank equipped for this army have also begun to be manufactured and transported by Rothana Heavy Engineering.
This is Galactic Republic's latest largest-scale landing operation, and for the smooth launch of this operation, Galactic Republic has made great efforts and sacrifices in all aspects.
At least the funds needed for this combat plan were Galactic Republic Finance Minister fainted on the spot after seeing the fund list.
You know, this is a very large-scale landing operation involving 7 million troops. Before this, when Galactic Republic used Clone Trooper as the main force, they generally rarely organized operations with more than 500,000 troops.
Because such a huge army fighting on another planet only requires resources for one day of eating, drinking and sleeping, which are also astronomical figures!
If the navy and logistics personnel are included, the number of combatants in this battle was close to 12 million!
Such a combat plan, if placed in the past, could be said to be a crime! The person who proposed this plan will not be arrested immediately, but he will definitely be removed from office on the spot.
But this time it is different, because the signature on the combat plan is-Wilhuff-Tarkin!
But now two months have passed, and this battle has reached the moment when the arrow is ready.
Inner Rim of the galaxy, Alderaan, Galactic Republic Fourth Army capital.
A staff officer quickly walked into the office, "Your Majesty the Governor!! Supreme Strategic Command urgent call! The combat plan will be launched 49 standard hours in advance!"
The lights were not turned on in the office. Acting Governor of the Fourth Army Wilhuff-Tarkin stood in the shadows. When he heard the report, he just said coldly, "I understand, please leave."
"Yes!" The staff officer gave a military salute and turned to leave.
With a click, the office door closed, and the interior returned to darkness. In this dark space, only the heavy breathing of Tarkin could be heard.
The communicator rang, and after it was connected, the projection of Chancellor of the Galactic Senate Sheev-Palpatine appeared in front of him, "I hope you are ready, my friend."
"A quick and cruel victory." Wilhuff-Tarkin seemed to be a bit unanswered. "As I once said when Bespin Campaign was in the early days of the war - fear and deterrence, this is exactly what Galactic Republic does not have now... Therefore, we must spend more energy to use realistic force to deter those gangsters."
"I very much agree with your point of view, Governor Tarkin." Palpatine said with a smile, "It's just a pity that we missed a lot of opportunities."
"It doesn't matter, this is exactly what Galactic Republic can't provide." Tarkin said calmly, "But this time, I must achieve this goal! Beat Separatists completely! Beat it to disability! Let other hostile galaxies in the Milky Way dare not look at us again!"
As he spoke, he pumped his fists vigorously.
"I will give you all the support I can, my friend. This is what I should provide to you as a comrade with the same philosophy." Palpatine said, "It's just a pity that I ultimately failed to convince the parliament on the allocation of combat ships. Because they think the fleet needs to be used in places where it is more needed... such as the Yago-Dur system."
"I will never make irresponsible remarks about the support you gave me, because I understand that what you give me must be all you can give." Tarkin said, "But, Galactic Republic... Haha, we all know what's going on."
"The timing is still a little short of time. Many people in the current parliament still have illusions." Palpatine said, "I believe that if you can complete the operation perfectly this time, the opposition voice in the parliament will be even smaller. And at that time, you will also be justified and become Governor of the Fourth Army."
"Don't worry, His Excellency the Chancellor. Onderon, as well as the production line of Behemoth-class battlecruiser, will be ground to dust under the iron hoof of the Empire!" Tarkin said ferociously.
"Oh~~I think you used the wrong word, my friend." Palpatine said understandingly.
"But in my heart, this is the truth of this galaxy. Power! It is the truth!" Tarkin bowed to Palpatine, then turned around and strode out of the office.
Outside the office door, two guards in black robes stood motionless. The black robes obscured their faces, but even ordinary people could feel the terrifying aura radiating around these two guards.
"Let's go to my flagship, Tarkin's Will (Tarkin's Will)." Tarkin said without looking back.
Onderon Invasion Plan, action code-Fist of Tarkin!
