2371. Selsvis blocking battle (Part 1)

The face of Dark Jedi Knight named Egri was extremely ugly. He knew that Galactic Empire had a strict hierarchy in the army, but it was because of Thrawn's repeated strange requests that he had to navigate and give way again and again, which made him furious.

Originally, the consumption of Force navigation was not low, but Company One took a detour, and Egri was already exhausted and dizzy. However, the other two backup Dark Jedi Knight were not very useful. They were weak and it was more difficult to complete the navigation tasks required by Thrawn. Therefore, Egri could only do it by himself, so he got angry.

Later, he directly disobeyed Thrawn's order and told Navigation Department the navigation data leading to Celwis. If it had been someone else who had acted like this, he might not have been directly sent to a military court and shot!

But Egri is Dark Jedi Knight after all, and has a different status among the Galactic Empire, so he was still lucky, thinking that as long as he could successfully retreat, the matter would be over, and the worst he could do was get scolded.

However, after completing this jump, when Egri saw the Chiss territory fleet waiting in formation near Celwis, Egri only felt a bucket of ice water pouring down on him.

Now there are only two words in his mind - it's over!

Collision with Fleet's Highest Commander, disobeying military orders, falsely transmitting navigation data, causing the fleet to be ambushed by the enemy, any one of them is a capital offense! This is a capital crime that cannot even protect his Dark Jedi Knight status!

Waiting for him is Judgment from Inquisitorius!

However, when Egri saw this so-called 'encirclement' clearly, the last glimmer of hope emerged in his heart.

Because this so-called 'encirclement' only has 16 warships!

Among them, there are 14 battleships, including 4 Nightdragon-class battlecruiser produced by Chiss territory, 5 Kohl-class Battlecruiser, 2 Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser, and 3 Doomsday Battlefield-class battlecruiser. There are two other strange spaceships located in the center of the formation, about 500 meters in length, with two big bellies at the front and back.

On the other hand, their current strength is 9 Imperial-class Star Destroyer, 4 Victory-class Star Destroyer, 7 Aquitenes-class light cruiser, 2 Kallak-class light cruiser, 12 Vigil-class corvette, and 9 CR-90 frigates.

With such strength, Imperial fleet has an absolute advantage. Not only is it a numerical advantage, but also because of its huge size, Imperial-class Star Destroyer has a huge advantage when facing Kohl-class Battlecruiser. Even the Hell Angel-class cruiser can only achieve a 50-50 split between the two sides.

Egri looked at the small fleet with a ferocious expression. He said viciously, "It seems that the enemy is dividing their forces to intercept us! They don't have enough troops in this direction now! As long as we concentrate our firepower to kill this small fleet, we can leave here immediately! I will personally fly the fighter jet to fight, and no matter what, we will ensure the victory of the battle!"

He was eager to express his attitude to Thrawn. For Dark Side Force users, this was the utmost submission and apology.

However, Thrawn just glanced at him lightly and said, "No, this is the main fleet they sent to intercept us. It is also the one I have been trying to avoid in the past two days."

"Are you just avoiding this thing?" Egri sneered, but immediately thought that he had made a mistake first, and quickly added, "If this is the case, we should have a chance to successfully evacuate! It's not a big problem!"

Thrawn was also frowning at this moment, staring at the fleet. During these two days of circling, he always knew that there was such a fleet tracking him, which relied on his genius-like prediction. Because once Formbi betrays, their informant in Csilla will definitely suffer heavy losses, and his whereabouts will be exposed immediately.

Under this premise, Thrawn constantly calculated the opponent's pursuit route, and then kept circling in an attempt to get rid of the opponent. This is a space-distance game between two sides Commander. Although their fleets did not meet face-to-face, the confrontation has already begun!

However, after all, they were not face to face, so Thrawn did not know what kind of fleet the other party came from.

Therefore, Thrawn was a little surprised when such a small fleet appeared in front of him, because since the other party appeared here, it showed that they were confident in destroying their own fleet. However, with such power? Is it possible?

"It is certain that Chiss territory's troops will be stretched thin before they receive more assistance. But it will not be so tight... Their main fleet just failed. Why are they sending a small fleet like this? To die?" Thrawn also has a hard time making a judgment.

Although there are only a few geniuses among the officers who come out of the Chiss Naval Academy, the average level of these officers can be guaranteed and they will not make such reckless decisions.

Unless... they really think that such a small fleet can defeat them!

"Don't be obsessed with fighting, break through the blockade as soon as possible and evacuate here." Thrawn said, staring at the holographic combat star map. After a moment, he suddenly said, "Judging from the formation, the core of the opponent's combat is those two unfamiliar battleships!"

"Those two battleships are weird!" Egri said.

"What did you find?" Thrawn asked.

Egri nodded and shook his head, "I can only feel that something is wrong, but it's hard to describe. It just makes my the Force feel uncomfortable."

"Fire and shoot!" Thrawn gave the order.

While Imperial-class Star Destroyer opened fire, Chiss territory's fleet also immediately fired back, and the two strange spaceships had already opened the passage in front, and bombers flew out quickly!

On the bridge of the Chiss territory fleet's flagship, Jianghuo Hell-Angel Class Battlecruiser, the young Kingdom of Dawn Navy Lieutenant General Lin Nanyi was also looking at the holographic star map, but at this moment his face was full of ridicule.

"Is this the Thrawn who was blown up by Ziyala? It's nothing more than that." Lin Nanyi sneered and looked at Imperial fleet who was launching a surprise attack, " He could predict my pursuit two days ago, but he was simply seduced by me and bumped into me. Hahahaha... He doesn't live up to his name. This guy can't even compare to General Tann."

"General, Holy Advent Cult's priest said they are ready to attack." A staff officer came over and said.

"Leave the battle to them, I also want to see what kind of strength Holy Advent Cult is." Lin Nanyi said, "By the way, let me tell them that the condition of this Imperial fleet is indeed not very good. They lack air defense warships. As long as they are organized properly, the bomber formation can indeed cause a lot of damage."

"Yes!"
