2256. A strange beginning
11BBY, Galactic Empire lasts for 9 years, and Galactic Republic Great Resynchronization lasts for 24 years.
Galactic Empire was established in 20BBY, so this is the ninth year.
Duchy of Dawn uses the Galactic Republic Great Resynchronization calendar. The Great Resynchronization calendar happened to be implemented in 35 BBY when Tang Xiao crossed over. Therefore, after Dawn Star Planet joined Galactic Republic at that time, the Great Resynchronization calendar was uniformly adopted and is still used today. And Duchy of Dawn sometimes uses the principality calendar to record the year internally, and now it is also the 9th year of the principality calendar.
This is interesting because Duchy of Dawn and Galactic Empire were also established in the same year.
And this year is destined to be a very special year, because starting from the first month of this year, the political situation in the galaxy began to take a very strange path.
First, the Hutt Space civil war suddenly stopped, and Goresla Family, headed by, began planning to establish a unified regime. Hutt Thousands of years of tradition have been broken, and this place is facing an unprecedented and huge change.
Then Galactic Empire and Duchy of Dawn quarreled in the air, accusing each other of violating human rights on the issues of Trade Federation and Chiss territory. But the problem is that while they are quarreling, they are still suppressing and strengthening their dominance in these areas. Galactic Empire's attacks on Trade Federation have not stopped for a moment.
This war of words has intensified. In the past few years, the two sides, at least on the surface, were on good terms with each other, and now it has reached the point where they have closed their borders to each other.
But the most amazing thing is that on January 20 of this year, Duchy of Dawn actually sent a delegation headed by Prime Minister Francis-Underwood to the Galactic Empire to repair the relationship between the two parties.
Francis-Underwood seemed to have a strong purpose. He made a request to the Galactic Empire to reopen Rendili Trade Route, and said that as long as this channel can be opened, Duchy of Dawn is willing to make concessions in some "areas that the Empire is interested in."
In addition to this, Duchy of Dawn also brought many gifts. Although most of them were worthless souvenirs, they at least showed their sincerity.
Galaxy Emperor Palpatine didn't want to pay attention to Francis-Underwood at all, but surprisingly, he didn't refuse, and let Koru Ya-fan D'ron be the representative to negotiate with Francis-Underwood.
So two people who had cursed and sworn to kill each other immediately a month ago actually started talking?
However, no one can say how sincere this negotiation is. The Galactic Empire and Duchy of Dawn media only briefly reported on the negotiation and did not publicize it.
On the contrary, some unofficial media are extremely excited, thinking that this may be the beginning of peace in the galaxy.
Moreover, in addition to Hutt Space, Galactic Empire and Duchy of Dawn, something explosive is also happening in Northeastern sector of the galaxy and Mandalore - Mandalorian Crusaders, which has been destroyed for more than 4,000 years, is actually resurrected!
The current ruler of Mandalore, Pre-Vizsla, announced that he will ascend the throne and become True Mandalor, and will fully restore everything in Mandalorian Crusaders, including beliefs, traditions, systems, military, etc.
And the day of coronation is today!
Regarding this retrograde move, the former Mandalore Grand Duke Bo-Katan-Kryze immediately issued a declaration, claiming that Mandalorian Crusaders had long been swept into the garbage heap of history and was a backward and outdated system. The people of Mandalore are peace-loving and are willing to build their own Homeworld in a peaceful environment. War is only a means of self-defense and should not become a weapon that threatens other planets.
Finally, she declared that she would fight Pre-Mand'alor to the end. Rebel Alliance of Mandalore would immediately march to the capital Sundari City, vowing to completely destroy the ambitions of Pre-Vizsla!
Thus, 11BBY, a unique year full of changes, opened the first month of the war in the flames of Mandalore.
Mandalore, Sundari City are about 50 kilometers outside the city.
Bo-Katan-Kryze and the 20,000-strong army she assembled have completed final combat preparations. This 20,000-man army is basically the local Public Security Department team that rose up and joined the resistance movement. Although these soldiers of the Public Security Department team have only undergone basic training, they are much better than the militiamen who can't even handle a gun.
This is currently the only army that Bo-Katan-Kryze can bring out that is capable of launching an active attack, and the equipment of this army has also been greatly improved.
Vitaly-Orlov sent another batch of weapons and equipment, and those provided by Mandalore Engine Company include the Brick-A Ror-class armed airspeed craft, M3-A Zik-type light fighter, as well as some armored vehicles with relatively simple structures and heavy blaster machine guns have also arrived.
There are a total of 150 Brick-A Ror class armed airspeed craft, 60 Zik-type fighter jets, 100 various modified armored vehicles, and 600 heavy blaster machine guns. This is a luxury for the poor Rebel Alliance.
What lies in front of them is the capital Sundari City, and the real elite troops in the hands of Pre-Vizsla - an army of 100,000 led by Gal-Saxon! The weapons and equipment of this army are also supplied with priority by the Pre-Vizsla army. Even compared to the really powerful armies of the Galactic Empire and Duchy of Dawn, they are still like beggars, but compared to the remote areas of Mandalore, they can be regarded as well-equipped.
Not only that, the main force of Death Watch is also here. Death Watch warriors is still with Pre-Vizsla, and there are more than 200 people in total. These are all powerful warriors who can compete with ten.
Moreover, no matter how difficult it is to supply Pre-Vizsla's army, he continues to shrink his defense line, and with the addition of a batch of supplies sent by Zann Consortium, he can still support the battle.
However, faced with such a powerful force, Bo-Katan-Kryze decided to take the initiative to attack!
She must tell everyone through her actions that the Mandalorian will never give in! And Mandalorian Crusaders, the cruel and bloodthirsty Ghost, will be completely buried!
After the army completed its preparations for the attack, Bo-Katan-Kryze gave the order, and 20,000 soldiers rushed towards Sundari City without fear of death!
Mandalorian Restoration Army headed by Jango-Fett, 20 Super Soldier and John-117 wearing Crusader power armor activated their jet packs, like 21 sharp knives, directly inserted into Vizsla government forces's position!
This kicks off Battle of Sundari!
