2197, The Empire Strikes Back (Part 1)

The core circle of the galaxy, the capital of the Galactic Empire - Imperial Center (formerly Coruscant), the headquarters of the Imperial Intelligence Agency.

An intelligence officer rushed into the minister's office with hurried steps, almost bumping into him, and then said in panic: "Sir... Report, Sir! The Principality of Dawn has a large-scale military mobilization!"

"What did you say?" Armand Isard, the Minister of Intelligence, was in the office at the moment. Hearing this news, he frowned and immediately asked: "Where, what mobilization?"

"The second Infinity-class supercarrier, the Eternal, appeared on the planet Dawn! And four hours ago, the planet Dawn announced a military exercise, temporarily blocking the entire Endor system!" The intelligence officer said anxiously.

"According to previous intelligence, the Eternal is in the direction of Chis Territory. Contact the informant in Chis Territory immediately to confirm the situation there!" Armand Isard said seriously.

"It has been confirmed! The Ancient of Days left Chis Territory two days ago and its whereabouts are unknown. But now it appears on Dawn!" said the intelligence officer.

Isard touched his chin and pondered, "Two days... Chis Territory is located in the unknown star region, and in the northwest of the Milky Way. And Dawn is in the southwest of the Milky Way. Starting from Chis Territory, they need to go around a big circle to get to Dawn... Could it be true that the intelligence that the Principality of Dawn has mastered some very fast hyperspace navigation methods is true...?"

The intelligence officer continued: "In addition, Severance Tann, who has been active in the Mandalore star region, has also taken action. The Infinity-class supercarrier Infinity left the spaceport an hour ago and its whereabouts are unknown."

"Why is it the Infinity-class again? Are all the recent movements of the Principality of Dawn related to the Infinity-class?" Isard thought for a while and said: "We have obtained some data of the Infinity-class before. Immediately retrieve all the data of the Infinity-class! Immediately organize a team to analyze what the Principality of Dawn needs two Infinity-class ships for!"

"Yes!"

"Anything else?" Isard asked.

"In fact, if we link the actions of the Principality of Dawn with the Infinity-class supercarrier, we have found another piece of information. The Principality of Dawn built at least three Infinity-class supercarriers, and the first of them, the Eternity, left the spaceport and disappeared about a year ago. We judged that it might have gone to an unknown star field." The intelligence officer said.

Isard nodded and said, "Pay attention to this matter, I will report to His Majesty the Emperor immediately."

"Yes!"

Isard did not dare to delay, and after informing Emperor Palpatine's eunuch, he immediately walked out of the office and drove to the Imperial Palace.

However, just as the hovercraft flew to the middle, he received another emergency communication.

[Minister! Urgent military intelligence! The Infinity, the third Infinity-class supercarrier of the Principality of Dawn, has just broken through seven of our border outposts, three of which were destroyed, and the other four lost contact! ]

Isard was shocked and stood up suddenly, but the space in the car was small and his head hit the roof with a bang. He covered his head and shouted: "This is an invasion! This is a war! Notify the military immediately!"

[The military has already known, and they are urgently summoning the defense fleet! ]

In the palace of the Galactic Empire, Emperor Palpatine, who received the urgent military information, immediately convened the highest military meeting.

"My Lord, the news has been confirmed. An Infinity-class supercarrier of the Principality of Dawn broke through our border, destroyed seven border outposts, and has now entered the Rafa Galaxy." Darth Vader said in a dull voice in the holographic projection.

"Is Tang Xiao finally tired of living? Hehehehe... This is just right! Gather the army immediately, I want to plow the Principality of Dawn into a flat land!" Palpatine laughed crazily.

"Our main fleet is besieging the Trade Union's planet Cato-Neimoidia. Before ending the war here, we lack the strength to attack the Principality of Dawn." Darth Vader said.

"Then end the war of the Trade Union!! When can Cato-Neimoidia be captured!? I need some time!!!" Palpatine roared.

"The offensive we launched last month failed. I have executed seven commanders above the rank of major general who commanded the operation. We are currently reorganizing the fleet and plan to launch a new round of general offensive in 40 days." Darth Vader said.

"So you are telling me now that I can only wait in the face of Tang Xiao's provocation?!" Palpatine's anger was almost visible to the naked eye, and everything around him was constantly shaking and trembling under his extremely powerful dark side force.

"The Rafa system is located in a remote area of ​​the Milky Way and has no strategic value. I am mobilizing the surrounding defense fleet to go there and strive to block the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier in the Rafa system and sink it." Darth Vader said.

Palpatine rarely stopped going crazy at this time. He suddenly frowned and said, "Since the Rafa system has no strategic value, why did Severance Tann lead the Infinity there in person?"

Armand Isard, Minister of the Imperial Intelligence Department, stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, we have reviewed all the information about the Rafa system and found an anomaly."

"Speak!"

Isad immediately controlled the terminal to project a large amount of data into the holographic projection in front of him, and said: "After inquiries, we have maintained a research team in the Rafah galaxy. The project studied by this team is an ancient people called the Saru people. Civilization. Moreover, this research project was started by the Galactic Republic a hundred years ago. However, the research has not yielded any results, so it has been gradually abandoned. At present, we still have an annual subsidy of 100,000 credits, but There are very few research results.”

"You mean, the Principality of Dawn is heading for the ruins of the Saru people?" Palpatine asked coldly.

Armand Isard nodded and said: "We have obtained key evidence on this matter. The research team of the Saru civilization, fourteen people headed by the leader Yaco Vesti, has betrayed the empire. And within the empire There are other internal agents who support them in selling their research results to the Principality of Dawn, and their research has made major breakthroughs, which is why Severance Tann took such a big risk and openly broke through our border outpost. Enter the Rafa Galaxy."

What he didn't say was that the latest information on this research project in his hands was already ten years ago. We don’t know what the current situation of this team is, how many people there are, or even whether Yaco Vesti is still alive.

But in this case, the matter became a serious dereliction of duty on his part as the Minister of Intelligence, so he simply labeled him as a traitor and made the matter more serious.

Since there is a conspiracy to betray the country, then the Principality of Dawn must be operating behind the scenes, and coupled with other traitors within the empire, then compared with such a major event, the failure of the Intelligence Department is not so obvious.

Sure enough, Palpatine's face became extremely gloomy, and he said slowly: "Now that we have the evidence, all team members led by Yaco Vesti are wanted immediately! And their family members are also arrested! !”

"yes!"

Original Sins of Empire of the Sun II is really a time-killing artifact... I farmed for a while at the beginning, and three hours passed... The computer came over and besieged me, and the afternoon passed...
