2428, Battle of the Two Heroes (Part 1)
Grand Marshal Thrawn is undoubtedly the most outstanding general of the Fourth Empire, no doubt about it. But the most shocking battle he commanded was the one that took place in the Isol Galaxy and the Palin-Minor Galaxy when he and I were both serving the Galactic Empire. Because that time, Grand Marshal Thrawn really gambled everything. He had never been so crazy, nor had he ever been so embarrassed. It was also because the person standing opposite him was also his best opponent. ——”Memoirs of a Veteran of the Fourth Empire”, Chapter 5, Section 36. Memoirs of Rell Benting, Rear Admiral of the Fourth Empire Navy.
Dunn Wessex, the King of the North, finally showed his fangs like a cornered rabbit!
At his command, the last defensive fleet gathered on the outskirts of the planet Palin-Minor and immediately rushed towards the fourth, fifth, and sixth squadrons left by Severance Tann!
As Thrawn said, the fleets left by Severance Tann were all old-model battleships. Because her initial combat intention was to have the first fleet hold back Thrawn’s fleet, and then the Titan battleship Aegis led the second fleet to break into the battlefield to establish victory, and then the third to sixth fleets were to expand the results.
Therefore, the first and second fleets are the strongest in both quantity and quality. Tann handed over all five Aegis-class battleships to the first fleet, and all the most advanced battleships, such as the Hell Angel class, Doomsday Battlefield class, Behemoth class, and Paladin class, were mostly divided into the first and second fleets.
Naturally, although there seem to be 80 battleships in the fourth, fifth, and sixth fleets, most of them are second-line battleships during the Clone Wars.
On the other hand, although Dunn-Wessex only had 60 battleships, 40 of them were the most advanced Imperial II-class Star Destroyers of the Galactic Empire, and 3 Commander II-class Dreadnoughts, which were backward but still posed a deadly threat due to their terrifying energy power brought by their huge size. With such a force, it would be invincible against the fleet left behind by Severance-Tann!
Severance-Tann also gave orders to the remaining fleet, and they must not retreat a step and fight to the death!
Because she was a step slower in seeing through Thrawn’s plan, although she immediately realized that the battle situation at that time must block the reinforcements of Palin-Minor, she still failed to stop the Third Fleet from going to the planet Isol as planned, which led to insufficient manpower for the remaining fleet in the Palin-Minor system.
Now she let the most powerful force in her hand-the Second Fleet-wait for the hyperspace channel of the Titan battleship God’s Envoy to come to reinforce. At the same time, let the third fleet turn back immediately and return to Palin-Minor planet for reinforcement to block Dunn-Wessex’s reinforcements.
However, due to the battlefield on the side of the Titan battleship of the God, both sides are frantically operating the hyperspace channel, causing the channel to become very unstable. If the third fleet wants to reach Palin-Minor planet, it must wait for two or three hours until the hyperspace channel gradually changes and bypasses the battlefield.
However, Dunn-Wessex has no such concerns!
With his crazy order, three Commander II-class dreadnoughts opened fire in unison, opening the prelude to the battlefield of Palin-Minor planet!
…
At the same time, on the side of the Titan battleship of the God, the situation has become grim.
On the remaining battleships of the first fleet, although the morale of the navy soldiers of the Kingdom of Dawn is high, the condition of the battleships cannot be determined by their morale.
Those warships were basically in tatters in the previous battles. Even with the reinforcement of the Titan battleship God’s Envoy, they were still being sunk. This put more and more pressure on the Titan battleship!
For Severance Tann, she now feels that although the comprehensive strength of her Northern Fleet is obviously far superior to the Northern Fleet of the Galactic Empire, she seems to be at an absolute disadvantage in every battlefield.
In fact, if you carefully judge Severance Tann’s troop deployment, you can understand why it was a humiliating defeat for her.
Because of Thrawn’s strategy, active and passive factors combined, Tann’s Northern Fleet was actually divided into five at a certain time period!
The first squadron trapped by Thrawn was one, the fourth, fifth, and sixth squadrons left behind on the planet Palin-Minor were the second, the God’s Envoy that went to reinforce was the third, the second squadron that waited for the hyperspace channel to open before it could reinforce was the fourth, and the third squadron that ran back and forth between the two planets of Isor and Palin-Minor was the fifth.
Such a mobilization led by the nose will of course result in insufficient troops in every battlefield!
So embarrassed, so busy, so confused, Thrawn made a light strategy and shattered the Northern Fleet in an instant. How could such a battle situation not make Severance Tann depressed! How could she not be humiliated!
But is Thrawn really relaxed?
No! He is not relaxed at all, he is on the verge of collapse now!
Because the Titan battleship of the God’s Envoy is killing all around in Thrawn’s fleet, as if it has directly opened the unparalleled!
Even if the doomsday weapons are not used, the conventional weapons of the Titan battleship of the God’s Envoy are still doomsday for the Imperial battleships! The terrifying high-energy laser array keeps flashing, and each flash carries an extremely terrifying power. Even the Imperial-class Star Destroyer can’t withstand a few shots.
However, in order to prevent the Titan battleship God’s Envoy from opening the hyperspace channel, Thrawn had to fight desperately. He also knew that once the Second Fleet arrived at the battlefield, the fresh force with 50 battleships, 1,000 light cruisers and destroyers could immediately tear his exhausted fleet apart.
Moreover, once the reinforcements arrived, Thrawn was very sure that the Super Star Destroyer Leela would be bombarded by the doomsday weapon of the God’s Envoy at the first time!
Maybe it was a bit lucky just now, but now, the Super Star Destroyer Leela, which had been hit by several rounds of salvos from the God’s Envoy, would really be hit by the doomsday weapon!
And once the Leela was sunk, it was certain that Dunn-Wessex would definitely turn around and leave, and there was no way he would come to reinforce!
Thrawn let his fleet madly besiege the Titan battleship God’s Envoy, and threw out all the hyperspace blockers they carried to activate and prevent hyperspace jumps. Not only that, his four Interdictor-class Star Destroyers also turned on their gravity well projectors to maximum power. The interference energy of the four Interdictor-class Star Destroyers made this battlefield area look like a small star in the hyperspace navigation system!
Hyperspace jumps must never target stars, so the jump cannot be established.
But the fleet navigation system of the God’s Messenger is fighting against this interference and trying to form a stable hyperspace channel.

At this moment, the Titan battleship of the God’s Messenger is not only frantically exchanging fire with the Imperial fleet, but also in electronic warfare and hyperspace navigation, a total of three battlefields, competing with Thrawn’s entire fleet!
This is the power of the Titan battleship! !
