2830. Strategic shift
At the same time that Planet Dagobah underwent drastic changes, the galaxy Core Worlds, First System Army headquarters, and Anax Planet.
In the planet's military command tower, the red light flashed rapidly and the alarm sounded continuously.
At this moment, inside a towering Bacta tank, a half-human, half-machine body is soaked in the Bacta fluid filled with active therapeutic cells.
This man's body was in a state of disrepair, with almost no lower body left. It seemed as if the whole body was torn apart from the right to the left by a huge force. Starting from the right shoulder to the left hip, the body was directly torn apart, and the lower half simply disappeared.
Instead, there are black mechanical prostheses made of countless precision instruments. The right hand and feet, as well as almost the entire abdominal cavity and less than half of the chest cavity, have become machines.
The cold mechanical structure is directly embedded into the incomplete body from the prosthetic limb, penetrating into the bone marrow, connecting nerves, and connecting blood vessels. Through the structure of the metal frame, you can even see the mechanical lung lobes inside the right body that are constantly expanding and contracting with breathing.
This body is extremely miserable. Even the right side of the face is seriously injured. The right eye and a small part of the cheek are also mechanical prosthetic eyes and metal structures. In order to facilitate the installation of the machine, all the hair has been shaved, and the bald head is filled with data interfaces and connecting cables.
The siren sounded, and the man shuddered and opened his eyes.
The intelligence network data began to connect, the command system was connected, and countless data were immediately gathered into the mechanical prosthetic eye.
Dantooine's retreat, Eastern Territory's collapse of the war situation, Twelfth Army Governor Seben's wailing, Titan warship's departure, Fourth Army began to build a new Ombara planet line of defense, Rebel Alliance's recent activities have begun to affect Core Worlds, Koru Er-fan D'ron's speech on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor...
Wait a minute! The data is rolled back.
Among hundreds of thousands of pieces of information, one piece of information was screened out and marked in blood red.
Titan warship is leaving the port!
Kingdom of Dawn Northern Fleet flagship, Archangel Titan warship, left its home port at Bilbrin Planet and entered hyperspace jump. The destination has not yet been tracked!
The still intact brain quickly contacted the quantum computer connected through the electronic prosthetic eye, and issued the highest order in the military command system - [In half an hour, the highest level military meeting First System Army will be held immediately!]
After the order was issued, with a rumbling sound of drainage, the nearly two-ton, extremely precious Bacta fluid inside Bacta tank was drained out like waste water, and the glass cover slowly lowered. Dozens of black mechanical arms stretched out from the surrounding automatic machines and began to install external armor plates on this half-human, half-machine body.
Different from the black mechanical prosthetic skeleton, the outer armor plate is white, which is the color of Imperial Navy. The armor plate not only covers the mechanical part, but also the body part. When the installation is completed, what appears here is a white armored general, there is the Galactic Empire mark on the chest, and a badge etched on the armor - three blue and three yellow in the first row, three blue and three red in the second row, a total of twelve squares. This badge also shows the identity of this person: Imperial Marshal!
That's right, this person is First System Army, Supreme Military Commander, Imperial Marshal, Oswald-Tessik.
Although his body is made of majestic white armor, he does not wear a helmet. His bald head has a scarlet mechanical eye and a black metal structure on the right side. His head is full of connectors. This look makes him look extremely scary.
Imperial Marshal, who was once a bit fat but still majestic and talented, has now become a mechanical monster.
However, he also got what he wanted.
Because in Goalkeeper Plan, he resolutely led troops to attack Bilbrin Planet to die, and used this action to show his loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor. At the same time, he was also hyped as an imperial battle hero by the imperial propaganda machine.
This is his price.
Half an hour later, a terrifying figure appeared in the Anax Planet Supreme Operations Command conference room. All the staff officers and generals participating in the meeting were speechless in the face of such a semi-mechanical monster.
Because, he is no longer the Oswald-Tessik he used to be.
At the same time, in the capital of Northern Galaxy, the Palin-Minor planet command center.
An intelligence officer quickly walked into the command center, rushed into Chief of Staff's office, and shouted, "Sir! It's not good! Separatist Titan warship is leaving the port!"
"Monitor immediately!" Chief of Staff jumped up instantly, "Report Gillard-General Perine and Dunn-Governor Vesex immediately!"
Titan warship is leaving the port!
This means there will be huge action in Kingdom of Dawn main fleet from Northern Territory!
According to the Galactic Empire's understanding of Kingdom of Dawn, their large-scale military operations will inevitably be accompanied by the mobilization of Titan warship. Now that Titan warship is moving, it means that Kingdom of Dawn will have major military operations in Northern Territory!
Dunn-Vesex was extremely nervous, and his body was even trembling, because judging from the results of several recent large-scale military operations, Galactic Empire on the Northern Territory battlefield, although it cannot be said to have been completely defeated, was basically in a retreat.
He immediately reported the news to Imperial Supreme Strategic Command.
At present, Kingdom of Dawn gave Galactic Empire a head-on blow in the previous Battle of Palanci, but then withdrew from Palanci Planet. This put great pressure on the empire Northern Defense Line, forcing the empire to spend huge resources to maintain the Palanci defense line.
What Imperial Supreme Strategic Command is most afraid of now is, of course, Kingdom of Dawn rushing over again, taking advantage of the fact that Palanci Planet's defense line is not yet stable, tearing it apart again, making the empire's already very tight resources even worse.
Dunn-Governor Vesex immediately held a meeting, and almost everyone in the meeting room was filled with his wailing.
"No! Perine! They are coming! They are coming to the planet Palin-Minor to take my life! Hurry! Recover the defense line! Hurry!" Dunn-Vesex said loudly, "Let Imperial Center send me reinforcements! The more the better!"
"Please calm down! Your Majesty the Governor! I think it is unlikely that Separatists will directly attack the planet Palin-Minor." Gillard-Perine said.
"But we must be prepared for this! They have launched too many surprise attacks before our expectations!" Dunn-Vesex said, "What did Imperial Supreme Strategic Command say?"
"Imperial Marshal Oswald-Tessik are already having a meeting to discuss, and First System Army begins to send additional troops to the Palanci Planet front line. But Supreme Strategic Command refuses our request to send reinforcements immediately." Intelligence officer. Said, "They seem to hope that you can lead Northern Territory Legion, just like you defeated Sefrans-Tann last time, and use the tactics of 'Dunn's Pincer' to beat Separatists again."
Dunn-Vesex was immediately choked, and he said, "It is absolutely necessary to beat Separatists hard! But they are too cunning. They don't fight us head-on every time, but play all kinds of conspiracies! I'm worried about what conspiracy they have this time! Maybe they are diverting the tiger away from the mountain to attack the west, hoping to create loopholes in our defense line."
Gillard-Perine was also a little nervous. He thought for a while and said, "You are very right, Your Excellency the Governor. I also think that Separatists will definitely want to mobilize our main force to create opportunities for their next target. But the question is... where is their next target?"
"Planet Palin-Minor! It's definitely the planet Palin-Minor!" Dunn-Vesex taught, patting the table.
But the tension between the two of them did not last long. The hyperspace outpost sent a message that Archangel Titan warship returned to Makito, took away half of the main fleet, and disappeared without a trace through the star gate.
Now, Northern Defense Line of Kingdom of Dawn only has Taowu Titan warship and 400 battleships and second-generation Heavy Cruiser, and this force must be divided to defend Bilbrin Planet and the planet Ord-Mantel.
These two directions are to guard against the First System Army and Northern Territory Legion respectively. It is very obvious that the troops are very insufficient.
With this force, it is absolutely impossible to launch a strategic offensive.
But it is not easy for the Galactic Empire to counterattack, because Taowu is currently stationed behind Fortress Planet Bilbrin's defense line, and it is impossible to penetrate there.
Unless...
Dunn-Vesex are willing to cooperate.
Oswald-Tessik sent the extremely cold command, requiring Dunn-Vesex to immediately organize a fleet and launch a tentative attack on the planet Oud-Mantel. Attack. And he will attack Bilbrin Planet with all his strength - this fatal blow of building a plank road openly and secretly attacking Chencang will force Taowu to step forward to intercept, exposing Northern Defense Line's most vulnerable central node.
But Dunn-Vesex refused directly. This was simply using Northern Territory Legion as bait! He roared loudly when faced with the news.
However, the reply he gave was very high-sounding: [Given that Separatists has a star gate as a strategic means of maneuver, the transfer of Archangel Titan warship this time is likely to be a strategy to attack the east and attack the west. Don't act rashly until the target of Separatists's attack is known.]
But the newly born Oswald-Marshal Tessik was very decisive. He immediately began to command First System Army's fleet to assemble towards Palanci Planet, preparing to threaten Bilbrin Planet.
Northern Territory's new round of battle is about to break out again.
However, Imperial Supreme Strategic Command still paid the highest attention to Kingdom of Dawn's historically weird strategic maneuvers. They asked Oswald-Marshal Tessik not to take the initiative for the time being, but to prepare for the attack as soon as possible in Palanci Planet.
After Oswald-Marshal Tessik was reborn, he had completely become His Majesty the Emperor's loyal dog. He assembled a huge force including 1,000 battleships and 8,000 small and medium-sized warships, preparing to attack Bilbrin Planet.
Just when Northern Territory suddenly became tense, about a week later, a guest came from the Imperial Center, capital of the Galactic Empire and Imperial Palace.
Imperial Twelfth Army Governor--Seben!
This old man, who was over eighty years old, screamed for his father and mother inside the Imperial Palace. He threw himself on the steps outside the emperor's palace, his silver beard covered with dust, and cried hoarsely, "Your Majesty! Twelfth Army is going to die! If we don't get reinforcements, within a week, the establishment of the Imperial Twelfth Army will be cancelled!"
There was only one reason why he went to the Imperial Palace to meet the emperor in person.
Kingdom of Dawn Titan warship--Emissary, after returning to Dawn Star Planet to replenish the fleet, led a huge force of 200 battleships and more than 300 Heavy Cruiser to appear in Lothal Planet!
It's Eastern Territory again!
But now it is almost impossible to see Emperor Palpatine. Also after Northern Territory Campaign, Palpatine was seriously injured and Dark Side Force was on the verge of losing control. Like Tang Xiao, he also chose to live in seclusion and almost no one could see him.
But Twelfth Army, who was basically in a state of semi-abandonment, was naturally unable to get any reinforcements. He was not even called to the combat meeting held by Imperial Supreme Strategic Command.
Because no matter what happens now, Galactic Empire has only one request for the Twelfth Army - to guard Lantilis Planet for as long as possible. If you can't guard it, commit suicide yourself, and don't bother us.
Imperial Supreme Strategic Command is currently holding a meeting to discuss, mainly on two topics. First, what is the purpose of Archangel Titan warship going to Eastern Territory? Second, how should Imperial Navy respond?
Especially regarding the first question, the senior imperial generals participating in the meeting argued endlessly: some believed that Emissary was intended to induce the main force of the empire to move eastward to create opportunities for Northern Territory's real offensive; others asserted that Kingdom of Dawn is simply unable to fight on two fronts, and Eastern Territory is just bluffing; others pointed out that Kingdom of Dawn intends to completely destroy Twelfth Army and occupy Lantilis Planet.
Faced with various speculations, Imperial Marshal smoked spices while having a meeting and got high Miltin-Tarkel said that when Emissary came to Eastern Territory, the only goal was Fourth Army. And their goals were not the same. The road reaches the capital of the Fourth Army, Alderaan, but breaks through the blockade of the Fourth Army, threatening Galactic Empire's largest line of defense from the east, Denon Planet!
Because once this strategic concept is achieved, Kingdom of Dawn will be able to besiege Denon Planet from three sides: Fondor Planet, Kira planet and Fourth Army.
But no matter which strategic intention it is, there is one thing that everyone agrees on.
That is, Emissary is going to Eastern Territory this time and is likely to stay for a long time. And even if the stay is not that long, Imperial Navy will try his best to hold Emissary back!
Because the current Eastern Territory is perfect for trapping Emissary!
First of all, it is because Kingdom of Dawn only has one stargate in Eastern Territory, Lothal Planet, which is in operation. The new stargate has not yet been built, and Lothal Planet is located in a remote location of Eastern Territory, which results in the stargate's mobility being reduced.
And with the bloody purge of Kingdom of Dawn in Eastern Territory, Rebel Alliance also hates Kingdom of Dawn in this direction, and they will inevitably continue to take revenge in the foreseeable future.
Then, once Emissary is trapped in Eastern Territory, then Galactic Empire will have a chance in other directions!
