2326. Dawn Celebration
Since the end of Planet Kira Campaign, Galactic Empire has almost caused a tremor like the earth is falling apart. Almost all Imperial military officials at all levels became anxious as soon as they heard the word Dawn Star Planet, and almost all the nobles and wealthy families also felt anxious at this moment.
In short, they are no longer optimistic about the Galactic Empire's war prospects.
As for the Empire's top management, they began to publicize that among Planet Kira Campaign, Imperial fleet still caused serious losses to Duchy of Dawn. Duchy of Dawn lost more than 500 battleships in Kira planet. From then on, Duchy of Dawn's mobile fleet suffered heavy losses. Next, Imperial Navy will launch a counterattack to completely eliminate Duchy of Dawn.
On the other hand, Galactic Empire also vigorously mobilized public opinion, claiming that Duchy of Dawn used anti-human virus weapons on a large scale in Planet Kira Campaign, causing billions of casualties on Kira planet.
Imperial military has increased the number of orders to major industrial giants and asked them to come up with plans as soon as possible to deal with the massive Swarm Interceptor of Consul-class aircraft carrier.
The result came quickly. A company called Damorian Manufacturing Corporation (Damorian Manufacturing Corporation) almost immediately came up with a plan - Tartan-class patrol cruiser (Tartan-class patrol cruiser).
This 250-meter-long warship is equipped with 20 laser cannons and the most advanced sensor systems, as well as a powerful fire control array that can quickly lock on a large number of small targets. At the same time, Tartan-class patrol cruiser has very fast and flexible maneuverability. It can maneuver at the fastest speed and will not be thrown away by the opponent's fighter jets using its maneuverability during the battle with the fighter group.
In fact, it was a complete coincidence that Damorian Manufacturing Corporation could come up with this plan immediately. They are just a small industrial company. They built Carrack-class fast cruiser for Galactic Republic and accumulated a lot of capital. However, after Karrak-class was retired, they lacked a new generation of products and gradually withdrew from the military market.
However, while Galactic Empire major manufacturers are all targeting the battleship market where capital ships are decisive battles, Damorian Manufacturing Corporation is very pragmatic and has chosen escort battleships that are specialized in fighting fighter jets. So Tartan-class patrol cruiser came into being, and when Imperial military just proposed how to fight against Consul-class aircraft carrier, Damorian Manufacturing Corporation immediately came up with their plan.
After Imperial military conducted a series of tests on the prototype, it directly placed an order to build 10,000 Tartan-class patrol cruiser with a wave of its hand! This order will include Tartan-class patrol cruiser and at least 5 subsequent improved models, and requires Damorian Manufacturing Corporation to complete the construction of at least 500 patrol warships within two months through outsourcing!
At the same time, a large number of production lines need to be modified to mass-produce Tartan-class patrol cruiser.
Not only that, Imperial military also increased their investment in Vindicator-class heavy cruiser, because according to Planet Kira Campaign's situation, they found that Vindicator-class heavy cruiser's anti-air capability is still very good. At that time, Vindicator-class heavy cruiser and Tartan-class patrol cruiser will form a light and heavy combination, and with a large number of TIE/LN fighters, they will be able to effectively fight against Consul-class aircraft carrier!
However, this series of measures made Kuat Drive Yards feel a little nervous. Because the main development direction of Kuat Drive Yards now is the direction of fleet decisive battle. For this reason, Kuat Drive Yards's Chief Engineer Lila-Vesex also deliberately forced her father, Willix-Blythex, to improve the design of Imperial-class for her and launch Imperial II-class Star Destroyer with fleet decisive battle as its main function.
(After marrying Dunn-Vesex, Lila changed his surname to Vesex.)
However, at this moment, Kuat Drive Yards discovered that Galactic Empire's military actually focused on air defense warships? Doesn't this mean that the large amount of resources they invested in the fleet battle are now all in vain?
Such worries were directly transmitted to her husband through Lila-Vesex, the doting wife, King of the North-Dunn-Vesex, which almost led to the loss of Galactic Empire's Northern Territory. Of course, this was months later.
On the other hand, in order to have more financial funds to order more warships, Galactic Empire began to call on the noble families of Core Worlds to buy war bonds and donate to the war. In order to get them to unlock their money bags, Galactic Empire did not hesitate to use coercion to achieve his goal.
For a time, Galaxy Core Worlds fell into a very tense atmosphere.
However, unlike Galactic Empire who was in mourning, after Duchy of Dawn achieved this epic victory over Planet Kira Campaign, it can be said that the whole country was rejoicing.
On August 12, Grand Duke of Dawn Tang Xiao announced that a national celebration would be held the next day, August 13, to celebrate this huge victory.
On August 13, the grand celebration was held as scheduled.
Grand Duke of Dawn Tang Xiao took his wife Adele-Ulan, his children Tang Xing and Tang Yun, and Leia, who was nominally his apprentice, to the high platform in the air built by countless drones, and loudly announced the start of the celebration.
The capital of Dawn Star Planet, Dawn City, was plunged into a sea of joy. People sang and danced and expressed their admiration for Grand Duke of Dawn in various ways.
However, just when the celebration was reaching its climax and Duchy of Dawn's superstars Ailiya-Isabella sang moving songs, something suddenly happened!
I only saw Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Helmut-Baron Zemo suddenly flew in a drone in front of Grand Duke of Dawn Tang Xiao who was watching the performance, and then fell to his knees with a thud!
At the same time, Ailiya-Isabella's singing was also interrupted, the surrounding music and fireworks all stopped, and the entire Dawn City suddenly fell into silence.
I could only hear Helmut-Zemo kneeling on the ground and saying loudly, "Report to my lord! Galactic Empire's perverse actions have led to the destruction of all living beings. Under the rule of the Empire, the people of Li Suffered great suffering and exploitation, countless people died, and countless people were displaced! But the initiator of all this, the Empire, the false emperor Palpatine, is standing high, enjoying the throne forged with the blood and lives of countless people!"
"And we Duchy of Dawn, under the leadership of Grand Duke, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the society is harmonious and stable, the civilization has developed rapidly, and the economy is changing with each passing day! Now Duchy of Dawn is the well-deserved light of the galaxy! Compared with the criminal and reactionary Galactic Empire, Duchy of Dawn is the bright future of the galaxy!"
"Now Duchy of Dawn is still accepting the canonization of the false emperor Galactic Empire, which is really inappropriate!"
"Now, I implore my lord to break the canonization and ascend the throne as king!"
