906. Development of the war situation
The Janfatar battle lasted for more than a month. Surprisingly, the winner was not the two warring parties Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems. On the contrary, the arms dealers Yuri-Orlov, Janfatar ruling party government and workers' strike organizations became the protagonists.
The battle ended abruptly with the sudden large-scale outbreak of Geth, but before that, the workers' uprising on Janfatar had succeeded. They overthrew the ruling party government and established their own workers' power.
They hated Galactic Republic deeply. After establishing the political power, they immediately announced to join Confederacy of Independent Systems and declared war on Galactic Republic.
Although Galactic Republic returned without success in this battle, the captain of Leveler Acclamator-class assault ship, Captain Gillard-Perine, still emerged. He contributed to this battle. Zhan made important suggestions, allowing his own fleet to disperse and harass, and forcefully landed on Janfatar, inducing Ulu-Ulix to make wrong actions, and once allowed Galactic Republic to see the dawn of victory.
On the space battlefield, Jedi Master Sass-Ting and Anakin-Skywalker, Ahsoka-Tano master and apprentice The two fought side by side and withstood the strong pressure of Confederacy of Independent Systems fleet. At the same time, they also made the other party's Dark Jedi Knight Ulu-Ulix lack the courage to fly a fighter plane to challenge.
Everyone worked together and finally blocked the invasion of the combined fleets of the InterGalactic Banking Clan and Fourth Group.
For Fourth Civilization, their original plan was to hope that this combined fleet would be able to fight all the way to the Republic 8th Army's capital, the planet Ord-Mantle, and then slowly accompany Galactic Republic to stage the drama of Geth's invasion.
However, it was unexpected that the fleet was blocked in Janfatar. Although it successfully induced the workers' uprising in Janfatar, they finally occupied the planet, but this was already a month later.
A month is enough for many things to happen, and enough for the terrible industrial capabilities of Galactic Republic's Kuat Drive Yards and Corellia Engineering Company to devote more warships to the war.
The Galactic Republic fleet currently gathered on the planet Oud-Mantel already has 20 Hunter Class Battlecruiser and more than 300 small and medium-sized warships produced by Corellia Engineering Company, which is very powerful.
After losing the opportunity, Fourth Civilization Supreme Military Command, Chief of Staff Qi Jian ordered to suspend the offensive on the planet Oud-Mantel and focus on Geth. Then wait for the time to come and kill this fleet with Geth.
During the month from March to April when the Janfatar battle lasted, the war situation in the galaxy changed drastically.
The Mid Rim Territories strategy plan planned by General Grievous has made great progress.
Technological Alliance The big foreman Watto-Tambo once again led the army to attack the Republic's 14th Legion capital Ryloth.
In the original plot, after Watto-Tambo retreated from Ryloth, Confederacy of Independent Systems was unable to continue the offensive because the mobile fleet was stretched thin, so from then on Ryloth's political situation began to stabilize.
But now the situation is completely different. The lack of mobile fleet has become Galactic Republic, which also gives Technological Alliance the possibility of launching a second attack.
The powerful fleet of 5 Hiigaran-class battlecruiser, 3 Deceiver-class destroyer, and 20 Generous-class frigate blocked the planet. At the same time, an army of 1.1 million robots swept across the entire Ryloth. The guarding Nikto Jedi Master Ima-Gun Di) died in a fierce battle, and the Ryloth capital Lessu finally fell.
The mother star of Tusken fell into the hands of Confederacy of Independent Systems, and Technological Alliance is not as easy to talk to as Fourth Civilization. The big foreman Watto-Tamber came back defeated last time on this planet. He severely oppressed Tusken out of revenge.
All Tusken who dared to resist were sold into slavery to build large-scale robot factories for the Technological Alliance.
Where there is oppression, there will naturally be resistance. Tusken started a long guerrilla war and resistance movement under the leadership of the resistance leader Chamu-Hera Syndulla.
The fall of Ryloth also marked that Galaxy Republic's 14th Legion'Red Tails' became the second legion to be completely wiped out after the 19th Army.
At the same time, General Grievous personally led the fleet, and with the assistance of Count Dooku's Dark Followers Asajj-Ventress, Antar system's two habitable satellites - Antar 4 and Antar 5.
The fall of Antar system marked that Confederacy of Independent Systems really brought the war to Inner Rim of the galaxy!
This is not the two raids launched by Sefrans-Tann, nor is it Kato-Neimoidia, Skako, which were originally at Inner Rim, Core Worlds, and then directly joined Confederacy of Independent Systems, but the front is extended step by step!
As expected from General Grievous's plan, after the fall of Antar system, Galactic Republic had to concentrate its forces on Inner Rim Territories's traffic artery Delon system to prevent Confederacy of Independent Systems from using Antar system as a springboard to destroy Inner Rim of the galaxy everywhere.
Affected by the battles in these directions, Fourth Civilization's battle has also made great progress.
21BBY, on March 12, Sefrans-Admiral Tann suddenly led 35 Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser to attack Malastare and defeated Galactic Republic wanted to pass Malastare Narrows to reinforce Eriadu's fleet, blocked Malastare, and set up a large number of Interdictor at Malastare Narrows.
In the next half month, Galactic Republic gathered the fleet that was originally intended to reinforce Eriadu and wanted to get through Malastare Narrows. However, under the genius command of Sefrans-Tann, Galactic Republic fleet was defeated again!
After that, Trade Federation general Mal-Tuke, who had completed the mission of Haruun Kal, led three Luukri-Hok-class battleships and also came to Malastare. After joining Fourth Legion who had been waiting for a long time, they started the landing operation on Malastare.
Fourth Civilization Army Major General Xiao Guanghua personally directed this ground battle.
The reason why not only Fourth Legion was involved in the invasion of Malastare, but also personally commanded by Xiao Guanghua was because there was some other meaning behind this landing battle. It was destined to be an extremely difficult battle.
On March 33, Galactic Republic once again assembled a fleet to attack Malastare Narrows, and this time they assembled 20 Hunter Class Battlecruiser!
Because Malastare Narrows's battle is directly related to Galactic Republic's reinforcements to the 18th Army's capital Eriadu. Because when Ryloth falls and 14th Army is destroyed, once Eriadu falls, it can be said that Southern Territory and Western Reaches in the entire galaxy will no longer be owned by Galactic Republic!
Moreover, Republic Intelligence Department has also received more information. News from unknown channels shows that the Blade Fleet 178 warships snatched by Dawn Star Planet will be completed as early as the end of April.
By that time, there is no doubt that these 178 Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser will attack Eriadu and completely capture this planet!
So instead of sticking to the Ord-Mantel planet in the direction of the 8th Army, and sticking to Denon Planet in the direction of Inner Rim, Galactic Republic launched an active offensive against Malastare!
