The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

743、Battle Plan

"Qi Jian, Chief of Staff of the Fourth Civilization, report to the governor!" Qi Jian stood in front of the governor's office, puffed out his chest and shouted loudly.

He was wearing the light gray military uniform of the General Staff, and the epaulets on his shoulders also indicated his current military rank-admiral.

Considering that he is less than 40 years old now, such a military rank is indeed a miracle. On the one hand, it is the inevitable situation of the growing fourth civilization. On the other hand, it is also the result of Qi Jian's hard work in the past 13 years, step by step.

Qi Jian was originally one of the civil servants awakened by the mastermind, but Tang Xiao was appointed as the interim chief of staff only because his name was more interesting. Moreover, as an ordinary person, it also shows that he actually had no achievements before. and established.

He walked step by step like this. Although his character was cautious and lacked the spirit of adventure, he seldom made mistakes in his work, and he completed everything with due diligence. It is precisely because of this that his status is as stable as Mount Tai in the ever-expanding Fourth Civilization, and it is rising with the tide.

Now he has some traces of time on his face. Although he has been in the office for a long time, his body shape is not so standard, but from his piercing eyes, you can see the vigor and enthusiasm in his heart .

The office door opened silently, Qi Jian straightened his clothes again, and walked in.

Tang Xiao was sitting at the desk, crossing his hands to support his chin, looking at him expressionlessly, "Come to me while I am meditating, you must have a reason for doing this, Qi Jian. Or, you must have."

Qi Jian's heart trembled inexplicably, but he still said in a resounding voice: "My lord, General Staff of the Fourth Civilization, Supreme Combat Command and Commander-in-Chief of Fleet A, Admiral Matt Horner, have proposed a battle plan , please take a look."

"Speak." Tang Xiao said lightly.

"This is a plan to attack the planet Terminus." Qi Jian said: "Currently based on the deployment of our army, the Jag-Dur planet of the Jiwen people and the Jinyan planet of the Gran people are temporarily We have cut off the advance route of the 20th Army of the Republic, and Admiral Severance Tann's B fleet is facing off against the 18th Army of the Republic on the planet Glenson, so if we want to open up the situation, Thermy Nus would be a very good direction."

"Answer my two questions." Tang Xiao remained expressionless, "First, the planet Terminus is a neutral planet. Our attack on the neutral planet Bespin was already very risky before. If such a thing Again and again, it will affect the expansion of the influence of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, and it will be very passive politically."

Qi Jian replied: "Although the planet Terminus claims to be neutral, their political orientation is still moving closer to the Galactic Republic. In fact, they are also providing a large amount of materials and supplies for the Republic's 18th Army, although it does not involve combat materials. , but things like food and medicine are also very important.”

He went on to say: "... so we can force them to stop the transportation in this area and force them to stand in line. Then, there is another plan. We have already smuggled a large amount of prohibited stimulants and spices into the Special Forces through Mr. Ni Yongxiao Erminus planet, next, as long as these things are used to create a public event, then whether it is the Galactic Republic to interfere or our own intervention, it can create an excuse to send troops.”

Tang Xiao nodded, and said: "Then the second question, the hyperspace channel from the planet Terminus to our army's planet Bespin base is not stable, so the logistics pressure is relatively high. And this planet to the headquarters of the 18th Army The hyperspace lanes of the planet Eriadu are the Corellian trade lanes—one of the busiest hyperspace lanes in the galaxy. How can we communicate with the Galactic Republic here when our fleet itself does not have the advantage? Fight a large-scale battle?"

Qi Jian replied confidently: "The recent offensive launched by General Grievous has almost shaken the entire defense line of the Galactic Republic. The pressure on the 18th Army is very huge. Because after this series of battles, the adjacent 17th and 15th Army The Army is now fully prepared for the next phase of the offensive by General Grievous, and the 18th Army will be isolated and helpless for a short time. In addition, the governor of the 18th Army, Wilhuff Tarkin, was also injured because of the assassination of our agents. This is the best time for us to take the initiative to attack! If we miss this opportunity, when the Republic recovers with its own productivity, we may be the ones under great pressure."

Tang Xiao frowned. He didn't feel good about this battle. However, the force of the entire Milky Way is now in chaos, and people as strong as Master Yoda cannot see through the future of the Milky Way. And the reason why he can see it is mainly because he knows the direction of the future plot.

But the battle proposed by Qi Jian is actually beyond the scope of the original plot, and if it doesn't matter if it is a small matter, Tang Xiao's current dark side force is also extremely powerful. But when it comes to the outcome of a battle, because there are too many things involved, and there is no doubt that the other party also has a Jedi master, so he can only make a decision based on his own feelings and judgments.

But it doesn't feel...well.

refuse? What Qi Jian said is indeed very reasonable. Now that the fourth article is clearly blocked by the 18th Army, we must find a way to break through their blockade. However, the control areas of the Fourth Civilization are all remote areas, and the hyperspace waterway is very complicated, which is not conducive to the actions of large-scale fleets.

Moreover, compared to other legions, the 18th Army of the Republic is indeed the toughest bone to crack. Wilhuff Tarkin's ability is beyond doubt. At the end of the Republic, he can be said to be a powerful commander who can be ranked among the top five in the entire galaxy.

Now that such a strongman is seriously injured by Gabriel Tosh's assassination, it's hard not to call it an opportunity.

As long as it can cross the 18th Army, the Fourth Civilization will be able to border on a large area of ​​control of the Federation of Independent Galaxy, so that it can better develop its own strategy. As for the next mediocre 17th and 15th armies, they will definitely not be opponents!

It would be great if Severance Tann was here, Tang Xiao thought to himself.

If it was her, then the chance of success in capturing the planet Terminus might be much greater.

It's a pity that Tann is now leading the Titan battleship Plague to carry out a raid on the planet Cato-Neimoidia.

So... do you agree?

Tang Xiao made up his mind, "Yes, on the premise of ensuring the integrity of our defense zone, I agree to launch an attack on the planet Terminus!"
