The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

Chapter 862 The Jiwen People Join the Battle

861. Jiwen people join the battle [2/5 update, ask for a monthly ticket]

The temporary calm on the battlefield does not mean that nothing really happened between the warring parties. On the contrary, a bigger storm is constantly brewing.

On January 35th, after a long period of quarreling, the Speaker of the Galactic Republic Council, Sheev Palpatine, finally announced that he would send an investigation team to the planet Jag-Dur, the home planet of the Givins, in 3 days. Vote on one thing.

Members of the Givens have repeatedly objected to this, but this time Palpatine made up his mind, and the vote was finally officially held on February 3.

In the end, the parliament passed the resolution with 67% of the votes in favour, 22% against, 9% abstentions and 2% nullified.

Palpatine announced that he would send Alderaan planet councilor Bail Organa to organize a special envoy to go to the planet Yag-Dur to investigate the illegal construction of warships by the Given people.

The Jiwen people need to cooperate with the investigation and explain clearly the purpose of their warships, as well as the type, quantity and source of funds of the warships that have been built.

At the same time, the Customs and Commerce Department of the Galactic Republic also launched an investigation into the previous logistics records of Yag-Dur.

However, the results of the investigation were unexpected. All the logistics records of Yager-Dur Planet in the past 10 years have been deleted, and no data can be found at all.

This intensified the Galactic Republic Council's suspicion of the Jivin.

On February 5, the investigation team set off. But the Jiwen people set up a hyperspace blocker again, blocked the traffic, and refused the investigation team to enter.

That afternoon, Bail Organa issued a strongly worded ultimatum to the Jivan people, demanding that the Jivan people must open the border within a standard day and welcome the investigation team to enter.

The Givens have not responded, but the nearby Republic outpost has detected that the hyperspace traffic signal in the direction of the Golden Rock planet near the Grans to the south of the Yag-Dur planet has become busy, which is more than five times the normal situation.

On February 6, Bail Organa returned to Coruscant and publicly announced the breakdown of negotiations in the council. Ji Wenren MPs were immediately expelled from the Galactic Parliament Building.

On February 7th, the Speaker of the Galactic Council, Schiff Palpatine, authorized the Governor of the 20th Army of the Republic, Octavian Grant, to lead the fleet to forcibly enter the planet Yag-Dur.

In the afternoon of the same day, Octavian Grant's fleet arrived in front of the hyperspace blocker array on the planet Jager-Dur, and began to fire to forcibly destroy the hyperspace blockers.

An hour later, the Jiwen people issued a statement, saying that the Galactic Republic ignored the declaration of neutrality and forced neutral planets to participate in the war, which violated the Constitution of the Galactic Republic and trampled on the sovereignty of the Jiwen people. In retaliation, the Jivin announced their withdrawal from the Galactic Republic, openly joined the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, and issued a war mobilization order.

That night, after destroying the hyperspace blocker, a total of 10 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 1 Cheer-class assault landing ship of the 20th Army Fleet of the Republic entered the hyperspace again and broke into the range of the Jager-Dur galaxy .

However, this hyperspace jump was affected by the gravitational force of the three stars inside the Yager-Dur galaxy, and the jumping point was deviated. Two of the hunter-class battlecruisers deviated from the course and lost contact after 30 minutes.

According to the video images sent back by the two Jaeger-class ships before they lost contact, although the interference on the battlefield was very serious, it can still be recognized that they encountered an extremely large mushroom-shaped space station.

After comparison by the intelligence department, it is believed that the mushroom-shaped space station in the image has a similarity of more than 70%, and it is the Argonev-class interstellar base that appeared in the Battle of Bespin before! However, the interstellar base in the image is much larger than the one on Planet Bespin!

Out of careful consideration, Octavian Grant immediately led his army to retreat.

On February 8th, the 20th Army of the Galactic Republic formally submitted a combat plan to the Supreme Strategic Command of the Republic, preparing to launch a full-scale attack on the planet Yag-Dur.

On February 9, with the personal signature of Speaker Palpatine, the Supreme Strategic Command of the Republic approved the plan.

At the same time, the fleet of the Republic's 20th Army began to assemble on the planet Giju, under the command of Jedi Master Sha Koon and her apprentice Baylis Archan.

Master Sha-Kong is a Kordo, the niece of Jedi Master Plo-Kong, who possesses great telepathic abilities and is powerful.

At the same time, the Jiwen people are also actively deploying defenses. According to the monitoring of the Galactic Republic's border outpost, at least 10 large warships set off from the Dawn planet and entered the Yager-Dur galaxy via the Golden Rock planet.

The war is about to break out in the Yager-Durr galaxy, which has been quiet for tens of thousands of years, but because of the complex environment of the Trisolaran galaxy, the 20th Governor Octavian-Grant did not rashly launch an attack, but gathered a large number of mathematicians and Astronomers are constantly calculating and observing the recent trajectories of the three stars in this galaxy to find the most suitable time to attack.

The official intervention of the 20th Army also means that for the Fourth Civilization, they will have to open up a new front in the Yager-Dur galaxy, and at the same time face the two major armies of the Republic 18 and 20 in the north and south directions.

And what's worse is that Wilhelm Tarkin's ability needless to say, Octavian Grant will also be one of the famous Marshals of the Galactic Empire on the list in the future, and he is also a very difficult opponent.

Because Admiral Trench received the call from General Grievous, and was going to continue to command the fleet of the Enterprise Alliance to start the next phase of the raid on the Central Star District, Tang Xiao had to adjust his deployment again, recruiting General Ling who had just awakened. Liang went to the Yager-Dur galaxy to serve as a military advisor. At the same time, Lin Nanyi was transferred from Severance Tann's B fleet as Ling Liang's adjutant.

Lin Nanyi had previously led the fleet alone and had combat experience on Planet Seria and other places. Letting him serve as Ling Liang's adjutant would help make up for Ling Liang's lack of experience in space combat.

At the same time, Tang Xiao also wanted to see what Ling Liang's ability was.

...

And at this time, the communication that Tang Xiao had been waiting for for a long time finally rang again.

He looked at the message attached to the communicator and understood the identity of this person. He also put on his formal suit very solemnly, straightened his clothes to ensure a meticulous image, and then connected to the communication.

The communication was connected, but the image of the other party was not projected at the first time. Instead, a few extremely beautiful maids came, paved a road with flowers, and then covered it with a layer of silky and soft cloth. Then an old man came over.

He has some lines on his face and looks about 60 years old, although considering his net worth, he must be much older than he looks. Wearing a white and soft robe that is as light as nothing, with very gorgeous shoulder ornaments, the snow-white hair is neatly combed behind the head and falls down like a waterfall, reaching the waist.

With such an appearance, even Tang Xiao had to admit that it really looked like a fairy.

"Mr. Tang Xiao." The old man said slowly, "I am Bangira Ulan, the patriarch of the Ulan family, and the chief director of Lundili Interstellar Power Company. I heard that your memory is not very good, but it's okay, you know The name carries its weight."
