The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2221. Dunn’s concerns

Dunn Wessex's face was gloomy, and he said: "Ajingano, okay. You tell me the Dawn Principality's plan in the unknown star field."

Ajinjano chuckled and said: "The reason why the Dawn Principality can launch large-scale military operations in Chaos is precisely because they have mastered the star gate technology. At present, Levik's planet almost certainly has a star gate, and Chis There is also one inside the collar, but its location is still unclear.”

"I need detailed information," Dunn-Wessex said seriously.

"It's not easy to get detailed information, but you asked the right person. In fact, three years ago, the Dawn Principality deceived several major families in the Chisland and asked them to help build the first star gate. However, this matter was strictly kept secret among the senior leaders of Chisland. The Kingdom of Dawn successfully deceived them, making several major families in Chisland think that if they did not help the Kingdom of Dawn build the star gate, the Kingdom of Dawn might look for others. Forces, such as the Kingdom of Light, Kilgi. On that day, the Dawn Principality will become hostile to the Qisi Territory." Ajinjano laughed, "Hehehehe, it's really stupid. In fact, if they sent it at that time. If the main fleet fights to the death with the Principality of Dawn, it is impossible for the Principality of Dawn to build the star gate. "

"So, the Star Gate was actually built by the Chissland." Dunn-Wessex asked.

"That's right. The amount of Stargate project is very huge. Even if the Principality of Dawn has the Endless-class super aircraft carrier, it is impossible to complete it by itself. What they rely on is deception, and then they can gain a foothold in Chaos." A Jin Garno said: "After the construction of the Star Gate was completed, the families in the Qisi Territory discovered that the power that the Dawn Principality was able to project at this time was far beyond their imagination. The Dawn Principality, which owns the Star Gate, Qisi Ling already has the absolute right to speak."

"Then, why are there so few people in Chisland aware of such a huge amount of work?" Dunn Wessex then asked.

Ajingano said: "The construction of the Star Gate was done after the components were processed in Chisland's factory, and then transported there by a spacecraft piloted by robots or synthetic humans. One of the conditions offered by the Principality of Dawn to Chisland, It provided them with very efficient manufacturing technology for synthetic humans and robots, which made the Chisling family, who were short of labor, very satisfied. Of course, after the construction of the Star Gate was completed, the family thought it was a scandal, so they chose to cover it up. The truth. What they are promoting to the people of Chisland is that the Principality of Dawn has mastered the technology to navigate the chaotic hyperspace channels. The family told the Chiss people that it is not that they want the Principality of Dawn to move into Chisland. Because they can't resist."

He continued: "After that, the Dawn Principality launched a massacre and purge of family forces. In the process, all Star Gate insiders were targeted and silenced by ghost agents. The existence of Star Gate is just that. Covered up."

Dunn Wessex frowned and asked, "So, do you know the location of the Star Gate?"

"Oh, that's another story," Azingano said with a smile.

"So, what's going on on Planet Levik?" Dunn-Wessex asked again.

Ajingano just smiled and said: "Hehehehe, of course I know. Although the Dawn Principality tried every means to hide what happened on Levik's planet, they couldn't do it."

However, he did not go into more details.

Dunne-Wessex understood that this guy wanted to raise the price. He said in a deep voice: "Tell me what you know! If it is true, then I will naturally reward you heavily! You know who I am, so you should naturally know what I can give you."

"Of course there are a lot of things I can tell you, Lord Governor...but I have a small request. I hope that I can serve as an advisor for the next operations in Chisland." Ajingano said, "You know... our country has been destroyed, and almost all the citizens have withdrawn to the deepest part of the chaos, and I am here alone without any sense of security."

Dunn Wessex sneered and winked at the dark Jedi behind him. The dark Jedi immediately stepped forward, and together with the dark Jedi who was at the door before, the two of them stood on one side and the other on the right. Ajingano was arrested.

"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me, Grisk. Use your own actions to prove your worth. This is the only possibility for you to survive." Dunn Wessex said coldly, he waved He waved his hand and said, "Lock him up and don't let him come into contact with any ordinary people! Then, dig out everything he knows!"

"As you command." The dark Jedi nodded and dragged Ajinjano down.

Ajingano did not resist, he knew that resistance was useless. However, an inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of this Grisk man's lipless mouth.

Dunn Wessex didn't pay attention to this. He waved his hands anxiously and began to think about the explosive information he had just obtained...

Stargate!

There is actually a star gate in the Principality of Dawn! !

In fact, the Imperial Intelligence Department had already speculated before this. They believed that the Principality of Dawn had made a technological breakthrough in hyperspace navigation, and that the navigation efficiency might be much faster. However, the Ministry of Intelligence also generally believes that this technology is used on the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier for the first time.

The intelligence personnel and scientists of the Galactic Empire are not fools. After they obtained the data and intelligence of the Infinity Class, they immediately found that the engine data of the Infinity Class supercarrier was abnormal. After a lot of reverse calculations and calculations, they concluded that the engine part was disguised and modified, and was not actually used. The engine used by the real Infinity Class is a more powerful and advanced technology.

Therefore, when the Eternal Supercarrier returned to the Dawn Planet from the Chis Territory in two days, the Imperial Intelligence Department was a little surprised, but not surprised, because they knew that the Infinity Class had similar technological achievements.

However, all these judgments are derived from this high-tech hyperspace engine, which can only be installed on super-large battleships such as the Infinity Class supercarrier!

Now, Akingano has given another terrifying intelligence-Stargate!

Once the existence of the Stargate is confirmed, the consequences will be unimaginable! Because the Principality of Dawn may use the Stargate to do many things, and each of these things may directly hit the most painful and sensitive part of the Galactic Empire!

The planets of Rendili, Mandalore, Christophsis, and of course the unknown star regions. This series of originally scattered areas can be directly connected through the star gate! What's more terrifying is that it is possible that these places have already been connected.

In this way, the territory and resources that the Principality of Dawn can control may be much larger than the most pessimistic considerations of the Galactic Empire!

A consensus of the Galactic Empire before was that the control area of ​​the Principality of Dawn was fragmented. The Mykito planet area in the north and the Moder star area they directly ruled separated the entire galaxy. The planets of Christophsis and Rendili are all isolated enclaves, and the Mandalore star area can only fight guerrilla warfare there.

Therefore, although the area controlled by the Principality of Dawn is very vast, it cannot be effectively connected together for the time being to exert a whole force. In contrast, almost 80% of the power of the Galactic Empire is concentrated in the core area of ​​the Milky Way. The circulation and connection between each other are very convenient, and it is easy to gather an extremely powerful force.

And this force is the biggest reliance of defeating countless enemies and establishing the hegemony of the Milky Way since the reign of the Galactic Republic more than 20,000 years ago! Their enemies can only disperse their forces and it is difficult to concentrate.

But now... the existence of the Stargate makes it easy for the Principality of Dawn to connect all its jurisdictions!

Dunn Wessex began to think that he needed to re-evaluate the future war.

He walked around the office anxiously, thinking about what to do.

In fact, he was not thinking about the safety of the Galactic Empire. Dunn Wessex and almost everyone else held the same view that the Galactic Empire would eventually win the war - that is, the Principality of Dawn could not resist the strong economic and industrial strength of the core circle of the Milky Way, just like the countless powerful enemies that the Galactic Republic had encountered.

Maybe there will be a short-term advantage, but the final victory is no suspense.

So, what Dunn Wessex really needs to think about is how he can use this information to gain more benefits.

He knew very well that once this information was handed over to the Emperor Palpatine of the Empire, he would most likely go to war directly against the Principality of Dawn regardless of everything! Moreover, he is likely to terminate military operations in other directions and launch a thunderbolt attack on the Dawn Planet!

But... this result is not what Dunn-Wessex wants.

The Galactic Empire is now using troops in several directions, and several powerful factions in the military all have their own tasks - Darth Vader, Wilhuff, Tarkin, and himself, the King of the North, Dunn-Wessex.

Darth Vader, the supreme commander of the Galactic Empire's military, is commanding the war against the Trade Union. Now the progress is slow, and Palpatine is extremely dissatisfied with this. And Wilhuff-Tarkin, the main task at present is to extinguish the uprisings that have been rising one after another, especially when the Empire decided to take action against the Trade Union. Governor Tarkin's primary task is to re-establish the rule of the outer ring galaxies that were cut off by the Trade Union.

On his side, in addition to constantly resisting the invasion of the Geth, he sent troops deep into the unknown star field to interfere with the Chiss Territory, and it would be best to trigger a civil war in the Chiss Territory.

A slight comparison of the three directions will reveal the difference in the problems!

Because in these three places, the military operations that Dunn Wessex was in charge of were the only ones that were not scolded, and even received praise and good reviews! !

Four months later, Darth Vader still failed to destroy the Trade Federation, and Palpatine even publicly scolded him at a meeting. This scene was rarely seen before.

And to extinguish the rebels? Even if you think with your butt, you know it is completely impossible. Wilhuff Tarkin is now in a state of panic, and Palpatine's evaluation of him can be imagined.

On the other hand, the combination of Gilad Pellaeon and Thrawn successfully resisted the infiltration of the Geth. Even if the Geth used warp speed technology to harass, the scale was small and insignificant. And the operations in the unknown star field have also begun to show results, severely damaging the Ancient of Days super aircraft carrier, causing the Principality of Dawn to suffer a great loss.

In such a good situation, Dunn Wessex would not be so kind to free Darth Vader and Wilhuff Tarkin!

Because once the intelligence of the star gate is submitted, what will be the result?

Palpatine must be furious, and then ordered to start a war immediately. Who will prepare for this war? It is almost certainly Darth Vader and Wilhuff Tarkin! Because on the one hand, they need to withdraw their forces from the battlefield where they failed to attack the Dawn Planet, and on the other hand, aren't you Dunn Wessex doing a good job? Then you can continue!

What's worse is that because you are doing a good job, some of your forces will be withdrawn to reinforce Darth Vader.

This is not impossible. No, it should be said that this is too possible!

Dunn Wessex must not let this happen!

On the contrary, what if he holds this information in his hands? What does this mean? It means that he has a switch that can turn on the war at any time! When he hands over the information, the war will break out! And when will it break out? Naturally, when his interests are greatest!

A satisfied smile appeared at the corners of Dunn Wessex's mouth. After figuring this out, he relaxed again, and the uneasy mood that had just been caused by the information about the Star Gate disappeared.

He sat on the sofa, poured himself a glass of fine wine, and tasted it comfortably.

…

At the same time, in the core circle of the Milky Way, the Trade Union's world of wealth - Cato-Neimoidia.

A Cheering-class assault landing ship, under the dense anti-aircraft firepower, forcibly assaulted the planet's atmosphere. The firepower fired from the ground is terrifying. The Trade Union has deployed more than 3,000 powerful orbital defense cannons at the equator of the planet alone! And these cannons have separate power generation facilities, and the output power of each cannon can reach the level of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer!

The battle here is extremely fierce. Under the cover of 10 Victory II-class Star Destroyers, this Cheering-class assault landing ship was finally able to descend to a suitable height.

The battleship's belly hatch opened, and dozens of orbital airdrop pods were fired like cannonballs. At the same time, hundreds of TIE/LN fighters gathered around like locusts to cover the whereabouts of the orbital airdrop pods.

In one of the orbital drop pods, a burly clone soldier said in a deep voice: "Clone Troop 99, move out!"
