2439, Fondor Planet
Looking at the cowering Sefrans-Tann, Matt-Hona sighed secretly.
She was not like this before, she was once so high-spirited, so arrogant and domineering, and she was indeed invincible and invincible. All enemies who dared to question her were trampled under her feet.
Just one failure brought her to this point?
Qi Jian patted Matt-Hona on the shoulder, and the two walked out of the cell. When the heavy iron door closed behind him, locking Sefrans-Tann in darkness, Qi Jian sighed and said, "I hope the report you asked her to write can cheer her up to some extent."
"It is also possible that she will fall into deeper darkness." Matt-Hona was silent for a while, and then asked, "What exactly was Tang Xiao's plan back then? In fact, I can feel that Sefrans-Tann became like this, and it was directly related to him."
Qi Jian shook his head and said, "His Majesty had foreseen a long time ago that a the Empire general named 'Thrawn' was very powerful, and he once wanted Cun Te to bring him over. However, Cun Te failed to do this because Thrawn had a high status in Chiss territory at first and had little chance. Later, when he was exiled, Cun Te was no longer in Unknown Regions, and Thrawn went to Coruscant with a very clear purpose and became a member of the Galactic Empire."
He looked out the window as he walked, recalling the past, "His Majesty actually told us that Thrawn is very powerful, almost the most powerful military Commander he has ever seen. But why he is so powerful and where he is so powerful, His Majesty can't actually explain clearly. He only said that Thrawn exists., is the future he saw through the Force... But the future is too variable, so we don't know how to deal with it. We can't just avoid fighting when we see a person named Thrawn on the other side, right? How should the plan be done? The influence of such a person should not be included in it."
"This is inevitable. Tang Xiao has also mentioned Thrawn to me many times, but such topics are almost worthless in my opinion, and I can't even make targeted preparations. He also said that Thrawn is very good at studying his opponents to find their weaknesses... Others are almost No more. Does our battle plan have to bypass Thrawn? This is impossible." Matt-Hona said, "I just didn't expect that someone could really defeat Sefrans-Tann."
Qi Jian said, "Your Majesty should have wanted to stimulate Sefrans-Tann to fight against Thrawn, which is the so-called provocation method. And Tann is indeed studying and improving crazily for that unknown goal, and even regards defeating this person as the meaning of her existence, because for her, His Majesty is everything to her. Once she loses her value to His Majesty, she will also lose the value of her existence."
"However, Tang Xiao still feels that Sefrans-Tann cannot defeat Thrawn?" Matt-Hona asked.
"That's indeed what he judged." Qi Jian nodded, "Although I don't know the basis for his judgment. But judging from the results, His Majesty is indeed correct."
Matt-Hona smiled and said, "Tang Xiao He knows a lot of things, like a prophet. Maybe controlling death is just an appearance. His real Force power actually comes from precognition."
"That's why we call him... Your Majesty." Qi Jian said this, and it seemed to mean something, vaguely reminding Matt-Hona of their titles.
Matt-Hona said, "I understand him, but it does not mean that I agree with him. In many cases, it is he who makes things very scary. But the matter is now over, and we must win this long war."
"What's the difference between this and before?" Qi Jian asked.
"This time, I will fight to protect more lives in the galaxy." Matt-Hona said.
Qi Jian was silent for a while and said, "Is this why you went to see Hari Seldon yesterday?"
"Operation Zero is undoubtedly a failure. This plan relies too much on the Galactic Empire's reaction. Once Galactic Empire does not act as we expected, the plan is likely to fail. will fail." Matt-Hona said, "To defeat Galactic Empire, we must fight quickly. There is no problem with the implementation method."
"What do you think?" Qi Jian asked.
"Maybe." Matt-Hona smiled, "I hope it can succeed... Regarding this, I must say, Hari Seldon, he is really a genius among geniuses."
"Then I'm really looking forward to what sparks you can create." Qi Jian raised his eyebrows.
Matt-Hona nodded and said, "But Thrawn... he is indeed a troublesome existence as Tang Xiao said. Sefrans-Tann No matter how extreme her thinking becomes, her learning and improvement over the years are visible to the naked eye. She almost forgets to sleep and eat... but Thrawn defeated her easily."
Qi Jian smiled bitterly and said, "And I also understand why His Majesty failed to tell us why Thrawn is so powerful... because his command method is completely traceless, almost entirely based on improvisation, and some tactics are simply incredible. For example, the tactics he used to defeat Sefrans-Tann - Thrawn's Pincer."
"Thrawn's Pincer?"
"Well, Intelligence Department said so. Galactic Empire The naval officers who are now in Northern Territory call Thrawn's tactics 'Thrawn's Pincer'. They use their Stalker-class Star Destroyer to set up a trap The tactic is to form an artificial gravity well and then forcibly pull out the hyperspace jumping fleet and fall into the siege," Qi Jian said, "Now Imperial military is preparing to popularize this tactic. Officially, they call this tactic Dunn's Pincer."
"Hmph!" Matt-Hona sneered, expressing his disdain for the so-called Northern Territory God of War, but he was still extremely solemn about Thrawn. "I also read the battle report. He led the fleet to the route of General Tann's First Fleet in advance, creating artificial gravity wells and making First Fleet fall into an ambush. But... how did he get there so quickly? And almost the entire army jumped."
Qi Jian said, "If the naval officers of Chiss have any characteristics, it is that their understanding and utilization of hyperspace are far better than others. It may be due to the environment. Navigating in the extremely chaotic 'tangle' requires more than just advanced technology. You must also have excellent technology and understanding, as well as some luck..."
He paused, then pulled out a research report from Omni-tool and sent it to Matt-Hona, and said, "He forcibly turned off the safety insurance of the hyperspace engine, in case it may cause hyperspace fluctuations., used a fleet that exceeded the capacity of the channel to force a jump, and then escaped from the jump state before causing a wave. Moreover, he even considered the impact of the medium-sized Blackhole in front of the channel. This series of actions was even unpredictable and relied on improvisation."
Matt-Hona's face turned gloomy, "And such a tactic was only thought up less than three days after he got Stalker-class Star Destroyer... Such a person is too scary. Even if I were to fight Northern Territory Campaign again, I'm afraid I might not be able to achieve better results than Tann."
"So... I hope our preparations will work." Qi Jian said.
"Ander-Viking... He is just a child." Matt-Hona frowned.
"But I have never seen such a smart, talented person." Qi Jian said.
"Including Thrawn?"
"Including Thrawn!"
"Again, he is still too young. War should not belong to his age."
"Defeat Thrawn, just once is enough." Qi Jian said seriously.
Matt-Hona nodded and said no more.
Galaxy Core Worlds, Fondor Planet.
This planet was once one of the brightest industrial pearls in the entire galaxy, a completely factory-based industrial world. This planet alone produced one-tenth of the industrial output value of the Galactic Empire. Such a production capacity can only be described as terrifying.
But now, this planet is completely occupied by Kingdom of Dawn, which has become Galactic Empire's biggest shame!
Not only was the most important industrial world lost, but Fondor Planet also became the first Core Worlds to be occupied by Kingdom of Dawn for a long time! This means that Kingdom of Dawn's troops have been pointed directly at Core Worlds!
It can be said that if Das-Vader had not maintained a super large fleet of more than 2,000 battleships in this direction, the dignitaries of Core Worlds might have been in chaos now.
But for Kingdom of Dawn, things get a little trickier.
Being able to occupy Fondor Planet is definitely an important step in the strategy of Kingdom of Dawn. In the past, this was definitely the ultimate goal that could not be dreamed of. Occupying Fondor Planet will not only immediately greatly improve one's industrial production capacity, but also cause Galactic Empire's industrial production capacity to fall into chaos in the short term, while also causing a huge reduction in production.
It can be said that after occupying Fondor Planet, Kingdom of Dawn will be able to confront Galactic Empire head-on!
But the problem is...
Strictly speaking, the one who occupies Fondor Planet is not Kingdom of Dawn... but, Alexia-Ashford!
In order to occupy Fondor Planet, Fleet Commander Sefrans-Tann at that time had to accept the conditions of Alexia-Ashford and use her power to occupy this planet, but the condition was that Fondor Planet must be handed over to her!
Now, Alexia-Ashford has completed this order. According to the agreement, she has also become the owner of Fondor Planet.
Because of this incident, the top management of Kingdom of Dawn held an emergency meeting for discussion. However, after studying the current situation of Fondor Planet, they had to face a reality - Fondor Planet seemed to have no choice but to be left to her!
The process of Alexia-Ashford occupying Fondor Planet is actually very simple and crude. She sent the mother nest of T-Veronica Virus that she had cultivated for a long time to the planet, built an extremely large nest, and then merged with the nest to become an extremely powerful mother nest.
The mother nest continuously produces various biochemically mutated monsters. These monsters not only bring the virus to every corner of the planet and infect everyone on the planet, but also form an extremely large army.
It is precisely by relying on this endless supply of mutant troops that Kingdom of Dawn can defeat countless combat robots produced by countless factories on Fondor Planet.
Although this method is very simple and crude, it solves the problem that Kingdom of Dawn could not solve before.
First, the problem of troop projection was solved. Kingdom of Dawn did not need to go through long transportation lines to transport troops and supplies from the military base they occupied at Mid Rim Territories to Fondor Planet. What's more, Das-Vader's Death Squadron is still stuck on the road.
The number of mutant creatures produced by the second brood was extremely large. By the end of the campaign, including the production of the transformation belt, there were already close to tens of billions of monsters!
Third, there were 5 billion people on Fondor Planet before the war, including a large number of troops, workers, technicians and family members. Most of these people were eventually assimilated into mutated monsters by the T-Veronica Virus infection. This was also the reason why the planet's production eventually collapsed. Otherwise, under the control of these people, Fondor Planet's factory will continue to produce combat robots.
But after Alexia's operation, Fondor Planet's natural environment began to be completely transformed.
T-Veronica Virus, which is a mixture of plant and ant genes, has a strong ability to modify the environment and a strong social character. Now on Fondor Planet, mutated vines can be seen almost everywhere. These vines continue to absorb the energy from those energy facilities, and then produce more mutated organisms and grow more vines.
Many places were completely occupied by these vines, and the planet's atmosphere began to be filled with spores of T-Veronica Virus.
It can be said that if a person comes here alone, he will become a unconscious zombie in just a few minutes!
Such an environment will naturally have a very serious impact on the production of the planet, and Kingdom of Dawn absolutely does not want the industrial world that it finally occupied to be destroyed by Alexia-Ashford, turning it into a planet full of primitive jungles.
Therefore, Kingdom of Dawn's current Prime Minister Daphne-Clement personally contacted Alexia-Ashford and asked her to provide a solution as soon as possible.
But Alexia-Ashford was somewhat resistant. She told Daphne-Clement that she would only talk to Tang Xiao.
However, Tang Xiao had completely lost contact at this time. No matter how they called Helmut-Zemo, they could not find any trace of him. They even used life detectors to scan Dark Altar who was in retreat from Tang Xiao, but the result of the scan was that there was nothing, he was not here at all!
Therefore, Alexia-Ashford also said coldly at this time that since Tang Xiao is not here, she can only maintain the status quo.
