The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars - Chapter 2346
2326, Dawn Celebration
Since the end of the Kira Planet Battle, the Galactic Empire has almost caused a shock like the collapse of the sky and the crack of the earth. Almost all the officials at all levels of the Imperial Military were anxious when they heard the word Dawn Planet, and almost all the nobles and wealthy families were also in a state of uncertainty at this moment.
In a word, they are no longer optimistic about the war prospects of the Galactic Empire.
As for the Imperial high-level officials, on the one hand, they began to publicize that in the Kira Planet Battle, the Imperial Fleet still caused serious losses to the Principality of Dawn, and the Principality of Dawn lost more than 500 battleships on the Kira Planet. Since then, the mobile fleet of the Principality of Dawn has suffered heavy losses, and the Imperial Navy will launch a counterattack to completely eliminate the Principality of Dawn.
On the other hand, the Galactic Empire also launched a large-scale public opinion, claiming that the Principality of Dawn used anti-human virus weapons on a large scale in the Kira Planet Battle, causing billions of casualties on the Kira Planet.
The Galactic Empire military increased the number of orders to major industrial giants and asked them to come up with a plan as soon as possible to deal with the massive swarm interceptors of the Archon-class aircraft carrier.
The result of this was soon realized. A company called Damorian Manufacturing Corporation almost immediately came up with a plan – the Tartan-class patrol cruiser.
This warship is 250 meters long and equipped with 20 laser cannons and the most advanced sensor system, as well as a powerful fire control array that can quickly lock a large number of small targets. At the same time, the Tartan-class patrol warship has very fast and flexible maneuverability, can maneuver at the fastest speed, and will not be thrown away by the opponent’s fighter jets using maneuverability in the process of fighting with fighter clusters.
In fact, it was a coincidence that Damorian Manufacturing Corporation could come up with this plan immediately. They are just a small industrial company. They built the Karak-class high-speed cruiser for the Galactic Republic before and accumulated a lot of capital. However, after the Karak-class was retired, they lacked a new generation of products and gradually withdrew from the military market.
However, when all major manufacturers in the Galactic Empire were targeting the battleship market for the decisive battle of the main battleship, Damorian Manufacturing Corporation was very pragmatic and chose a professional escort warship against fighter jets. So the Tartan-class patrol warship came into being, and when the Galactic Empire military just proposed how to counter the Archon-class aircraft carrier, Damorian Manufacturing Company immediately came up with their plan.
After the Galactic Empire military conducted a series of tests on the prototype, it directly issued an order to build 10,000 Tartan-class patrol warships! This order will include the Tartan-class patrol warship and at least 5 improved models later, and requires Damorian Manufacturing Company to complete the construction of at least 500 patrol warships within two months through outsourcing!
At the same time, a large number of production lines need to be transformed to mass-produce Tartan-class patrol warships.
Not only that, the Galactic Empire military has also increased its investment in the Defender-class heavy cruiser, because according to the situation of the Kira planet battle, they found that the Defender-class heavy cruiser’s air defense capability is still very good. At that time, the Vindicator-class heavy cruiser and the Tartan-class patrol warship will form a combination of one light and one heavy, and with a large number of TIE/LN fighters, they will be able to effectively fight against the Archon-class aircraft carrier!
However, this series of measures made Kuat Power Dockyard feel a little nervous. Because the main development direction of Kuat Power Dockyard now is the direction of fleet decisive battles. For this reason, Lila Wessex, the chief engineer of Kuat Power Dockyard, also forced her father, Willix Blissex, to improve the design of the Imperial class for her and launch the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer with fleet decisive battle as its main function.
(After marrying Dunn Wessex, Lila changed her surname to Wessex.)
However, at this moment, Kuat Power Dockyard discovered that the military of the Galactic Empire actually focused on anti-aircraft warships? Doesn’t this mean that the huge resources they invested in fleet decisive battles are now all in vain?
Such worries were directly transmitted to her husband, Dunn Wessex, who doted on his wife and was also the King of the North, through Lila Wessex, which almost led to the loss of the northern border of the Galactic Empire. Of course, this happened a few months later.
On the other hand, in order to have more financial funds to order more warships, the Galactic Empire began to call on the nobles in the core circle to buy war bonds and donate to the war. In order to get them to open their wallets, the Galactic Empire did not hesitate to use coercion to achieve its goal. For a time, the core circle of the Milky Way fell into a very tense atmosphere.
…
However, unlike the wailing of the Galactic Empire, the Principality of Dawn was jubilant after winning the epic victory of the Kira Planet Battle.
On August 12, Grand Duke Tang Xiao of Dawn announced that a national celebration would be held the next day, August 13, to celebrate this great victory.
On August 13, the grand celebration was held as scheduled.
Grand Duke of Dawn Tang Xiao, with his wife Adele Ulan, his children Tang Xing and Tang Yun, and Leia, who was nominally his apprentice, boarded a high platform built by countless drones and loudly announced the start of the celebration.
Dawn City, the capital of the Dawn Planet, was plunged into a sea of joy. People sang and danced and expressed their admiration for Grand Duke Dawn in various ways.
However, just when the celebration was reaching its climax, when Alia Isabella, the superstar of the Principality of Dawn, sang a moving song, something suddenly changed!
Only the chief minister of the cabinet, Baron Helmut Zemo, was seen suddenly flying in a drone in front of Grand Duke Tang Xiao who was watching the performance, and then fell to his knees with a thud!
At the same time, Aria-Isabella’s singing was also interrupted, the surrounding music and fireworks all stopped, and the entire Dawn City suddenly fell into silence.
I only heard Helmut Zemo kneeling on the ground and saying loudly: “My lord! The Galactic Empire has gone against the grain and led to the destruction of life. Under the rule of the empire, the people of Li have suffered great suffering and exploitation, and countless people have died. , countless people have been displaced! And the initiator of all this, the false emperor Palpatine, is standing high, enjoying the throne forged with the blood and lives of countless people!”
“And in our Principality of Dawn, under the leadership of the Grand Duke, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the society is harmonious and stable, the civilization has developed rapidly, and the economy is changing with each passing day! The current Principality of Dawn is the well-deserved light of the galaxy! Compared with the criminal and reactionary Galaxy Empire, the Principality of Dawn , is the bright future of the galaxy!”
“It is really inappropriate that the Principality of Dawn is still accepting the canonization of the False Emperor of the Galaxy Empire!”
“Now, I implore my lord to break the canonization and ascend the throne as king!”
