The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2315. Raid Battle on Planet Kira (End)

The entire battle situation has completely collapsed. Michel Unser looked at the battlefield in despair. Even without looking at the holographic battle star map, just through the porthole of the bridge, he could see the cloud-like swarm in the universe. Drone formation.

Is this the true strength of the main fleet of the Dawn Principality? Michel Unser is extremely desperate. You must know that he has 1,000 battleships in his hands, and half of them are Imperial-class Star Destroyers!

So, how many warships can compete with the main fleet of the Dawn Principality? 2,000 ships? 3,000 ships?

Don't know... can't calculate.

From the intercepted opponent's combat communications, Michelle Unser learned a lot. For example, that large, top-heavy battleship was called the Apocalypse-class battleship. For example, the commander of the fleet attacking from the rear was the super-famous general Severance Tann.

Famous general? Does this situation still require a famous general? Michel Unser smiled mockingly... Even if the other side tied a bantha to the bridge and commanded it, he would win.

"General...I, we..." the adjutant came to Michelle and said tremblingly, but he couldn't finish his words halfway.

The atmosphere of fear has occupied the hearts of all imperial officers and soldiers. This is a desperate battle, a battle with no hope in sight, and they can't even hope that they can survive.

"The whole army retreats..." Michel Unser finally gave the order. He looked at the adjutant who was extremely frightened on his face, sighed, and added: "No... it's not a retreat... run for your life, each of you. Escape back to the planet Kira...how much you can escape is as much as you can..."

Boom~~~ There was a dull explosion in the bridge, and the ground was shaking slightly. Sure enough, the operator shouted: "The deflector shield in the M-69 area at the bow of the ship has been broken!"

"Retreat! Get out of here!" Michelle Unser said in a deep voice.

The huge body of the Lusankaya Executor-class Super Star Destroyer began to turn and accelerate. At the same time, the entire 5,000 heavy-duty turbolaser turrets on the battleship were also firing wildly! The Lusankaya sailed on the cosmic battlefield as if it were a huge city in itself!

Even an approaching Shenshi-class battleship was bombarded by thousands of turbine laser beams. The main armor belt was penetrated, and fires and explosions broke out everywhere. Then it turned around and ran away without hesitation. The Xingzi-class maintenance drone carrier and the Pioneer-class logistics cruiser immediately rushed to perform emergency repairs on the battleship.

However, the Lusangkaya has completely ignored this rare opportunity to sink the Apocalypse-class battleship. Now they only think about how to get out of here.

There was a white light flashing at the edge of the battlefield. It was some imperial warships on the edge that quickly left the battlefield and started their hyperspace engines to escape.

However, most of the battleships were entangled by unmanned interceptors, or were called out one by one by the powerful battleships of the Principality of Dawn. They tried to forcefully start the hyperspace engine under countless artillery fire. Whether they could succeed or not depends on the sky.

The Lusankaya is even more difficult. Although the Executor-class super Star Destroyer is extremely powerful, it is also the focus of attention. Almost all of the 50 Doomsday Battlefield-class battlecruisers came closer, and then aimed all their power-destroying devices at the Lusangkaya, causing the super battleship's reactor power to continue to decrease.

The Executor-class super Star Destroyer was like an old lion, staggering forward on the battlefield, and around it were countless ferocious and bloodthirsty wolves!

The battle lasted until noon on August 7. Seeing such a tragic battlefield, the planet Naboo finally chose to surrender. They no longer dared to offer any resistance.

And at this time, the Lusangkaya finally escaped. The shield of this Executor-class super Star Destroyer had long been broken, and it was on fire everywhere. It looked extremely miserable. But the 19,000-meter-long giant body still saved the battleship. Even though it suffered heavy damage, it still escaped from the battlefield under the desperate protection of more than a dozen Imperial-class Star Destroyers around it.

Now on this battlefield in the Naboo galaxy, there are almost everywhere the wreckage of battleships. There are still a few Imperial-class Star Destroyers still resisting, but their fate is doomed. Of course, Severance Tann could not let go of this opportunity. She immediately reorganized the first and second task forces, leaving some injured warships and relatively backward warships to clean up the battlefield, and left Ling Liang to command. And she herself organized all the main battleships into her second task force and advanced directly towards the planet Kira.

This decision made Ling Liang extremely dissatisfied, but as one of the initiators of Operation Plan Zero, Ling Liang still looked at things from a higher perspective. She did not argue with Severance Tann, but accepted it. This mission is to clean up the battlefield.

…

At 16:00 on August 7th, the planet Kalinda fell into the wind and did not dare to offer any resistance.

At this time, the planet Kira was in chaos!

After Imperial Navy Admiral Michel Unser finally returned to the planet Kira after a near-death experience, he learned that the army left behind on the planet Kira had actually been defeated!

20 Empire-class Star Destroyers, 50 Victory II-class Star Destroyers, and more than 130 light cruisers of various types faced the Separatists' 60 Catastrophe-class battlecruisers and 100 light cruisers, but they didn't even fight! !

You know, the Disaster-class battlecruiser has no way to conduct close combat. If there is no cooperation from other battleships, the Disaster-class will really face a disaster. However, this time, there are only 100 light cruisers cooperating with the Disaster-class.

No matter how good the Victory II-class Star Destroyer is, it is still a Star Destroyer level. Facing the three to five hundred meters long light cruiser, it is still a crushing existence. How could it fail? !

Michel Anser also got the answer-the problem lies in the 50 "miniature Behemoth-class battlecruisers".

Those 50 heavy cruisers, which are similar in appearance to the Behemoth-class battlecruisers but reduced in length to 550 meters, can actually compete with the Victory II-class Star Destroyer! How is this possible? What about the interstellar era, where big means strong? How can a 550-meter-long battleship compete with a 900-meter-long Star Destroyer?

But this is what happened. 50 "miniature behemoths" were met with a salvo of Yamato cannons, catching the Imperial Defense Fleet off guard and causing heavy losses. And taking advantage of this opportunity, 60 Disaster-class battlecruisers also took the opportunity to launch multiple salvos on the Imperial battleships.

In the first round of attacks, 7 Victory II-class Star Destroyers and 1 Imperial-class Star Destroyer were lost, and the Imperial Defense Fleet immediately lost its will to fight. So their strategy changed to wandering and delaying, as long as the Disaster-class battlecruisers did not continue to bomb the planetary defense facilities.

And this small separatist fleet was also very sensible. They fired several more salvos at the Imperial Fleet, and after seeing that the effect was not very good, they stopped while they were ahead.

But now, Admiral Michel-Unser no longer cares. He doesn't care about any amazing technology that the Principality of Dawn comes up with.

Because now, he is going to die!

At 19:00 on the same day, Severance Tann led the reorganized Second Task Force to Kira. Almost at the same time, the small fleet of 60 Disaster-class battlecruisers that had retreated earlier also arrived at Kira and joined the main fleet.

Michel Unser looked at the broken fleet in his hands and had decided to die here.
