676. The fall of the 19th Army (Part 1)
"For now, I like a boss like you very much. From the first moment I saw you, I understood that we are the same kind of people." Gabriel Tosh spoke word by word. , the rhythm is a little weird, "cold-blooded, efficient, and unscrupulous. However, voodoo tells me that you have a mask on your face. I like you, but I don't like the mask."
"You should understand where you and I are, Tosh. I very much hope that I won't show that side to you." Tang Xiao said lightly, "Now, you should talk to Severance Tann Get in touch and cooperate with her to take down the planet Haven."
"I will not obey anyone's command! Including you. But I like you, so I listen to you, and my asking price will be very high." Tosh said.
"I can meet any reasonable offer you make, Tosh. Well, okay, then your first commission is to capture the planet Haven. After that, 5 million credits will be credited to your account." Tang Xiao Said, "I only have one condition - I must be able to contact you at any time."
"This business is very good." The butterfly knife in Tosh's hand curled up and disappeared into his sleeve. Then red energy waves appeared around his body, and the whole person disappeared out of thin air. "Planet Haven is in chaos. , out of control, give me 3 hours."
Tang Xiao thought of something and asked in the direction where the communication had not been cut off but the projection was empty, "How... do you see this world?"
"This is a desert of voodoo, but beneath the desert lies the sea." Tosh's voice came from the air.
"Voodoo? Force? I don't think so." Tang Xiao said.
"You are a person who lives in the oasis. You don't understand that this world is hungry for voodoo." Another sentence came in the air, and then the communication was cut off.
…
The outer star region of the Milky Way, the Greater Javin Region, the headquarters of the 19th Army of the Republic, the planet Javin.
This is the home planet of the Mugaari people. It was once prosperous, but it was abandoned due to a series of conflicts between the Mugaari people and the Republic hundreds of years ago. Many Mugaari people left their homes and became miners and bounties. Gold hunter.
But because this planet is rich in resources and has a suitable environment, and it is also an important link at the end of Corellia's trade route, a large number of merchants from the Galactic Republic soon came back, making this planet prosperous again.
Until now, this is still a sector where the Galactic Republic has a very stable position in the Outer Rim sector. Even if Count Dooku's separatist movement has made a big fuss in the past, the Great Haven sector has remained absolutely loyal to the Republic.
Currently, the planet Havin has a total population of 1.5 billion, but one-third of them are still Mugari people, and the rest are basically humans.
The 19th Army of the Galactic Republic set its headquarters on the planet Haven because the transportation, supplies, and political environment here are ideal.
But now, Planet Haven is finally facing its end!
The original defense layout of the 19th Army of the Republic was to install a large number of hyperspace blockers on the hyperspace channel between the planet Bespin and the planet Haven, and to establish a military base on the planet Glenzon. The main purpose was to delay time. Because there are actually no other enemies in this direction except the Dawn Planet, which occupies the Bespin Planet.
Later, because the planet Karl was a very important economic center, the 19th Army focused on deploying defenses on the planet Karl. Not only did it build four heavily armed space stations, but it also deployed heavy troops. Mainly because in this direction, there are not only threats from the Dawn Planet, but also other threats such as the Gran people from the Golden Rock Planet. Originally, this direction was the main battlefield in Suramar's strategic planning.
However, after the first Battle of Bespin, the deployment of the 19th Army was completely disrupted. However, Suramar and Admiral McGlenn still had the dream of defensive counterattack, so they worked hard to manage the defense line of the planet Karl and prepared to start from there later. Set out here to attack everywhere to safeguard the unity of the Republic.
Wishful thinking was a good one, but the Second Battle of Bespin completely destroyed the main fleet of the 19th Army in one battle, and all the strategic arrangements were in vain.
After Suramar was ordered to return to the planet Haven to take charge of the overall situation, because Admiral Maglenn was dead and he himself had no military talent, he could only continue the previous strategy and rely on the hyperspace blocker in the direction of Bespin. Delaying time, and at the same time intending to rely on solid defense on the defense line of the planet Carl to fight the fleet of the Dawn planet.
This plan was good at the beginning. Fleet B of Dawn Planet could only slowly clean up those hyperspace blockers covering a range of more than 5 light-years, and kept jumping into hyperspace, and the jumps were constantly terminated by blockers, and then Keep clearing blockers.
Moreover, the defense line of Planet Carl really caused a headache for Fleet A, which had a small business and could not suffer too much losses.
But things changed when Admiral Severance Tann returned from the planet Christophersis. She directly led 5 Cole-class battlecruisers and 5 Sova-class aircraft carriers into the chaotic hyperspace sub-channel tributaries. This level of sub-channel, for those who grew up in the unknown star field and faced those changes for a long time. For Severance Tann, who is in unpredictable hyperspace, this is nothing.
So, caught off guard, 10 large battleships from the Dawn Planet appeared in the outer space of the almost unprepared Planet Havin!
The people on the planet Haven suddenly fell into chaos. At this time, Suramar, as the governor of the legion, also showed his ability and successfully stabilized the situation. He activated the planetary shield and orbital defense system to prepare for a stubborn resistance.
At this moment, without any warning, Suramar died in his heavily protected governor's palace!
The leaderless 19th Army fell into chaos again. The soldiers fighting on the front line did not even receive any instructions for a whole day, and all inquiries were like silence. Without their command, these troops could only stand in place, thus missing the last chance to save the planet Havin.
Galactic Standard Time, the night of August 17th.
Severance Tann's fleet occupied seven spaceports outside the planet Haven, cutting off all connections with the outside world.
In the early morning of the next day, 10 battleships of Fleet B of the Fourth Civilization began to use high-yield nuclear bombs to conduct orbital bombardment against the planetary shield of the planet Havin. The planet's orbital defense system fought back desperately, but the fleet was very flexible under Tann's command. She was not in a hurry to capture the planet quickly, but slowly teased her prey like a cat catching a mouse.
