The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 2083 Battle Plan Zero ()

2084. Operation Plan Zero ()

This is a crazy gamble!

It was difficult for everyone present to understand why Tang Xiao had such high hopes for such a plan. Indeed, a large amount of data was used to support the plan, and the final success rate was 70%.

Although when explaining this combat plan, General Ling kept emphasizing that this probability of success is a real calculation result. As long as key technologies can be broken through and industrial output and mobilization plans can be implemented in these five years, yes, it is true. There is indeed such a chance of success.

But in fact, everyone still thinks that subtracting zero from this success rate may be more reliable.

However, this is the decision of Tang Xiao, Grand Duke of Dawn! That alone is enough!

The reason for this is, on the one hand, Tang Xiao's personal prestige and the terrifying deterrent brought by his powerful power. On the other hand, as Tang Xiao said, the development of the Liming Principality to this day is a miracle in itself! A miracle woven by Tang Xiao himself!

From a colony of a hundred people, it took more than 8300 years to develop and rule billion people! What kind of development speed and strength expansion is this?

In the process of development, Tang Xiao led them to miraculous reversals and victories again and again, each time proving Tang Xiao's wise determination and unparalleled foresight. Therefore, now, many people in the Dawn Principality are worried about Tang Xiao has an almost blind superstition and worship.

Therefore, they believe that this time, Tang Xiao will still lead them to another victory! Even if this victory seems so incredible and unbelievable, they still believe that a miracle will happen again!

Seeing the almost crazy Tang Xiao and the extremely warm atmosphere at the venue, Ling Liang finally understood what Hari Seldon meant and what Tang Xiao's intentions were.

Indeed, the starting point of Operation Plan Zero, the pessimistic prediction, is simply not suitable, no, it is absolutely impossible to use it as the premise of such a gambling-like operation plan. In this way, it will only give this combat plan a sense of tragedy or failure, and this sense of tragedy has no effect on whether the plan can succeed.

What Tang Xiao wants is such an almost superstitious fanaticism! Turn this battle plan into a victorious holy war!

Although it is still essentially the same plan, the results may be decisively different depending on the mentality when executing it!

Any objection is void.

Francis Underwood and Matt Horner both stood up and questioned this plan, but Tang Xiao didn't listen at all and insisted on going his own way with this plan. Even Matt Horner wanted to resign as Commander-in-Chief of the Navy on the spot in protest, but Tang Xiao stopped him with one sentence - "Do you want to resign? Yes. Then you recommend someone to come up and let him witness Let the navy of Dawn Principality perish."

The plan is so certain. And starting from the next day, the Dawn Principality quietly began to prepare according to this plan.

According to Operation Plan Zero, the attack officially started in the 12th year of the Principality Calendar, which is June 8, 6BBY!

This day is called - Day Zero!

……

Ling Liang retracted his wandering thoughts and memories and looked at the busy space port outside the window, his eyes becoming more determined. It has been more than a year since Operation Plan Zero was advanced. Although on the surface, there is still no change in the Principality of Dawn, Ling Liang knows that the changes have already begun!

First of all, from the outside, the Dawn Principality’s exploration and invasion of the unknown star territory has been almost semi-public. A large amount of manpower and material resources were invested in the unknown star field, and hundreds of capital ships were sent there.

What is the concept of hundreds of capital ships? At the beginning of the Clone Wars, the entire Fourth Civilization army totaled only 150 capital ships! Judging from the information currently available to the Galactic Empire, the overall number of capital ships in the Principality of Dawn is around 800.

In other words, according to the intelligence department of the Galaxy Empire, the Principality of Dawn has invested one-eighth of its troops in the unknown star field. If we exclude the troops that must be defended in the three major star regions, it seems that the Principality of Dawn does not have much mobile troops anymore.

Moreover, under the deliberate disclosure of the intelligence department of the Principality of Dawn, the intelligence department of the Galaxy Empire also learned that they were entering the unknown star territory in two directions at the same time, but they encountered danger in both directions and fell into the quagmire of war.

Departing from the northern border of the Milky Way, the Second Exploration Fleet, led by the Fourth Group and the Interstellar Banking Association, was caught in a dispute between Chisland and surrounding forces and was in a state of distress.

Starting from the southern border of the Milky Way, the First Exploration Fleet, led by the direct leader of the Principality of Dawn, encountered the mysterious virus Mongal-Mongal, and was also in a state of distress.

Scientists from the Principality of Dawn even published part of Mongal-Mongal's research data, listing this thing that is difficult to distinguish as a virus or an individual organism as one of the major threats to the safety of life in the galaxy.

The huge ring-shaped structures that appeared in the Principality of Dawn were interpreted as devices to stabilize hyperspace channels. Because the Galactic Republic had used such technology when it invaded the Model Sector before, the Intelligence Department of the Galactic Empire was also inclined to believe this before more conclusive information was available.

The intelligence deception at this stage was relatively successful.

Of course, the intelligence department of the Galactic Empire is not a vegetarian. In response to the above situation, they also started their own actions.

The Imperial Intelligence Department began to try to contact the Chisland, and then understand the situation of the dispute that dragged the Principality of Dawn into the quagmire. If possible, they would try to support the hostile parties on the Principality of Dawn's side.

The person in charge of this operation is the Seventh Army of the Galactic Empire, which is responsible for the exploration of unknown star fields.

Then Mongar Mongar, the Galactic Empire also sent agents to obtain its samples, and planned whether it could cause a large-scale infection of Mongar Mongar in the Principality of Dawn, and pass the blame to the Principality of Dawn research institution, as well. It is Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group.

However, the results of this part of the operation were tragic.

Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group, which had just been tricked by the rebels and had to push Alfred Ashford out to take the blame, now attaches great importance to this matter. Even Alexia Ashford De personally took action several times, directly dismembering the exposed Galactic Empire intelligence personnel on the spot and sending the videos back.

The highly confidential areas of the Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group are now controlled by Alexia Ashford's clone, making it impossible to penetrate.
