Cannons provided a dignified alternative to vulgar invective. ——"Records of the Fourth Empire's Military Stars", Xian Hui, Chapter 15.
The blue figure of Endor gas giant appeared in the sky above Dawn Star Planet, reflecting the light of Endor star and shining on the ground of Dawn Star Planet.
Over the course of a year, there are actually not many times when Dawn Star Planet can directly see Endor star, but the light and radiation reflected by Endor gas giant are still enough for Dawn Star Planet to obtain enough energy to allow all things to grow.
So most of the time, Dawn Star Planet is neither too hot nor too cold. It deserves the title of being like spring for four seasons, at least for three seasons.
For many Dawn Star Planet residents who opened their eyes after a night of partying, this new day is both ordinary and means a new beginning.
From this day on, Dawn Territory was officially established. Different from the declaration of independence issued by Dawn Star Planet when the previous war broke out, the establishment of Dawn Territory now truly forms itself into a separate political power or country.
To put it bluntly, it is the founding of the country, and it has truly become Duchy of Dawn!
Although Duchy of Dawn is still nominally subordinate to Confederacy of Independent Systems, in fact, the relationship between the two has become similar to that between a leader and a member.
Duchy of Dawn is just a member state of Confederacy of Independent Systems.
This is truly an extraordinary moment for the many residents of Dawn Star Planet who followed the mothership to this galaxy. They experienced a time when they were homeless and floating in space; they also experienced a time when they were just a small colony that even pirates could not defeat; they also experienced a time when they gradually established a foothold and struggled with countless other powerful forces in the galaxy...
And now, they finally have their own country - Duchy of Dawn!
The promises given to them by their former manager, former governor, and current Grand Duke - Tang Xiao are being fulfilled step by step! And in fact, a large part of it has been achieved!
Also changing at the same time is Confederacy of Independent Systems.
In the reports of Dawn Star Planet major media, the news that is being exaggerated is that in addition to Tang Xiao taking office as Grand Duke of Dawn, Count Dooku is preparing to officially take office as the chairman of Confederacy of Independent Systems in three days.
Grand Duke Tang Xiao will also come to the scene in person on that day to give his support to his nominal superior.
As for Galactic Republic, there will also be huge changes.
The first is the formal establishment of Confederacy of Independent Systems and Duchy of Dawn, which gave Galactic Republic two loud slaps in the face. You must know that even if it is Hutt, the reason why they can coexist with Galactic Republic for so long is that the first premise is that they gave up their country name of the Hutt Empire.
So why is it that although Hutt is still independent from Galactic Republic, Galactic Republic doesn't pay attention to them? It's because now they call it Hutt Space, which is a place name! Instead of a country name like Hutt Empire!
Not to mention, the battle that was taking place at Enarc system also came to an end on the night when Tang Xiao took office as Grand Duke of Dawn.
Under Major General Malcolm Granger's leadership of the guerrilla fleet in a series of precise and crazy actions, the logistical supplies of the Galaxy Republic 17th Army main fleet that was invading Enarc system had been cut off.
The guerrilla fleet jumped around between Kalinda Planet and Naboo, disrupted the hyperspace channel, attacked the Galactic Republic transport fleet, and managed to survive for three days!
Seizing these precious three days, Ling Liang commanded Xuanwu Titan warship and his composite battle group to launch a fierce attack!
The reason for taking the initiative to attack was to intensify the material consumption of the 17th Army's main fleet, and to make use of Republic fleet commander's worry about gain and loss, which was on fire in the backyard, to make them disorderly.
It's just a proactive attack. In fact, for Duchy of Dawn's fleet, it's more like stretching his face to hit others. It's just that the face you stretched out was so thick, so hard, and had so many thorns.
After all, the fleet in the hands of Ling Liang is at an absolute disadvantage compared to the main fleet of the Republic 17th Army. Even with such powerful weapons as Particle Beam Lance, this fleet is generally defensive, and their firepower is far inferior to that of the opponent.
Even comparing the super battleships on both sides, the firepower of the three Commander II-class Dreadnoughts is much greater than that of the Xuanwus.
Therefore, since the firepower was not dominant, Ling Liang commanded his fleet to continuously use Xuanwu's group shield to maneuver around, constantly adjusting the formation, allowing the warships with intact shields to withstand Republic warship's firepower, consuming their supplies and energy.
You have to say that with the support of Xuanwu Titan warship, Duchy of Dawn's fleet is really the best at this, just like the stones in the pit, smelly and hard.
how? Are you dissatisfied? If you don't obey, beat me to death? I, Xuanwu, want to be beaten to death by you today! If you can't kill me, it's hard to say what will happen next.
17th Army Admiral of the Navy Kurny, who heard that the rear was raided and supplies were cut off, was thinking of another thing.
He still followed the doctrine he learned in the academy. When supplies were cut off and his troops were superior, he would launch a resolute assault as soon as possible while the supplies he carried were still sufficient, so as to avoid dragging the battle into a protracted battle and causing the supply to run out.
In his opinion, Ling Liang's fleet taking the initiative to attack was exactly what he wanted. Who knew that his behavior was also what Ling Liang wanted.
Therefore, Republic 17th Army's main fleet launched a crazy attack on Xuanwu, hoping to use its own strength advantage to destroy Xuanwu in one fell swoop!
However, the bloody and cruel fact told him that you were overthinking.
In this high-intensity and continuous battle, which was a crazy confrontation between the two sides, Republic fleet's supplies gradually bottomed out, while supplies from Ling Liang's side continued to arrive.
Forgot? She did not move all of Sith Vena star sector's main fleet to Enarc system to increase the difficulty of supplying her from the beginning. Moreover, with Enarc as the cargo distribution center of Trade Federation, how could she be short of supplies?
So after the battle lasted for three days, the combat status of the 17th Army's main fleet became worse and worse. Damaged parts cannot be replaced, exhausted capacitors cannot be recharged, and injured soldiers cannot receive treatment.
Finally, Malcolm Granger led the guerrilla fleet to get rid of the pursuers and rushed from Naboo to Enarc, and when he appeared behind Republic fleet...
This was the straw that broke the camel's back!
