The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 2379 Bloody Battle with Fang Duo (Part )
2380: Bloody Battle of Fangduo (Part )
Darth Lilim led the elite squad of the Fourth Legion all the way to the core of the factory. Here, they saw one sophisticated production line after another, producing various cutting-edge chips. When these chips were installed on robots or automatic turrets, they would immediately become the brains of these killing machines, pouring all their firepower on all invaders!
Some controllers and managers could be seen fleeing in panic, while at the same time, various engineering robots were waving anything around them that could be used as a weapon and rushing towards them.

These engineering robots picked up stun guns, flamethrowers, chainsaws and all kinds of weapons, and charged forward fearlessly.

But the soldiers of the Fourth Legion did not give them any chance at all. A burst of intensive firepower instantly blew all the robots into pieces.

Darth Lilith is invincible. She wields a whip of light, and nothing, whether it is a robot, a missile, or a blaster beam, can get within three meters of her!

After all resistance was defeated, the soldiers of the Fourth Legion began to install tactical nuclear bombs in the production line and control room. Several technical soldiers also took a handful of chips from the production line and prepared to take them back for research.

A commander of the Fourth Legion came before Darth Lilith, raised his wrist and unfolded a light screen on the universal tool, and said: "My Lord, the tactical nuclear bomb has been installed. This factory will soon be reduced to ashes. However... according to our statistics..."

The commander shook his head. "To truly affect the production capacity of Fangduo Planet, it is still very small. These real core factories are all arranged underground, and some factories even have independent shield systems installed. Even if it is a fixed-point orbital bombing, it will take multiple bombings to be effective. The combat command just sent you the simulation combat results you requested before... It is not optimistic."

"Based on the current progress, how long will it take us to capture the planet Fangduo?" Darth Lilith asked coldly.

"More than a year." said the commander.

The corner of Darth Lilim's mouth twitched, and her face darkened. She snorted coldly and turned away, "What's the next battle plan? Isn't Severance Tann known as the strongest general? Now is the time to show her value."

"General Tann plans to occupy an industrial zone as our forward base, and use the factories on the planet Fangduo to produce weapons and equipment and even combat robots for us. At the same time, she also asked Super Lotus' hacker force to crack the control system of the planet Fangduo as soon as possible." said the commander.

"Haha, this is her plan?" Darth Lilim sneered, "Does she really plan to spend a year here?"

The commander sighed and whispered, "General Tann doesn't seem to be in a good condition these days, and she seems to be in some conflict with Ms. Alexia..."

"What contradiction?" Darth-Lilim asked.

"Ms. Alexia seemed to want to give the planet Fondo to her," the commander said, "but General Tann was furious and refused."

"Oh? Hahahaha... this is really interesting..." Darth Lilith laughed out loud.

The commander did not dwell on such gossip. He tapped on the light screen, marked a topographic map, and said, "This is the next target planned for us by General Tann, an energy power station. She asked us to occupy this power station so that we can use it to charge our landing robot army. The Second Armored Division has launched a raid in this direction."

"Hmph. Just a meaningless struggle. The more she wants to prove herself in front of His Majesty, the more she proves that she is simply incapable of doing so. In a battle like this, does she really think she can conquer it just by moving her fingers and being a little clever? Hahahaha..." Darth Lilith sneered, but she did not pause and walked outside.

A violent explosion occurred in the factory area behind him, the chip factory was blown to pieces, and Darth Lilith also led the elite troops of the Fourth Legion towards a new target.

……

Admiral Severance Tann was very reluctant to fight such a siege battle. If she had a choice, she would not even lead the fleet to the battle on the planet Fangduo.

But the problem now is that she has no choice.

Darth Vader led the Death Squadron to directly attack the planet Yago-Dur, completely disrupting her original combat deployment based on Operation Zero.

Operation Zero was a very large and sophisticated plan, but it was executed two to three years in advance, and as a result, it was full of loopholes.

It has to be said that the Galactic Empire’s sudden declaration of war caused great trouble to the Kingdom of Dawn.

But in fact, if Severance Tann had not annihilated a main fleet of the Galactic Empire in the Battle of Kira, perhaps Operation Zero would not even have been possible.

And now, the result of forcibly implementing the plan is that the movements of the Galactic Empire are simply beyond their control.

Darth Vader attacked the planet Yago-Dur. After careful consideration, Severance Tann decided that it was absolutely impossible to return to provide assistance at this time.

She did have full confidence that she could defeat Darth Vader's Death Squadron on a frontal battlefield, but the problem was that, apart from anything else, judging from Darth Vader's military deployment alone, there was no way she could turn such a battle into a war of annihilation.

Darth Vader organized a huge military network that stretched across nine star systems, with each supporting the other. Severance Tann could defeat him, but she couldn't destroy him.

At this point, if Darth Vader was simply defeated, then nothing would have happened.

The main fleet of the Galactic Empire is still there, the Death Squadron is still there, and with the industrial production capacity of the Galactic Empire, this main fleet will be replenished soon.

But for the Kingdom of Dawn, this is a big loss.

First of all, Severance Tann's plan to attack the 12th Army of the Galactic Empire, break through the planet Salukami, and establish contact with the core control area of ​​the former Confederation of Independent Systems will completely fail, and she will have to confront the Imperial fleet near the planet Fondo.

Although the fleet of the Kingdom of Dawn is elite, it is insufficient in number. Such a fleet must constantly maneuver and annihilate to maximize its advantage. On the contrary, if it shrinks in one place and takes a defensive posture, it will be meaningless. Therefore, while Darth Vader attacks the planet Yago-Dur, he directly attacks the planet Fangduo, and the two sides fight in a posture of exchanging homes. This is such a choice that seems very risky, but in fact there is no other option at all.

But is it so easy to take down the planet Fangduo?
Totally impossible!
Severance Tann was well aware of this, but with only one Death Star cannon, no matter how brilliant her command skills were, she would not be able to display them.

Now, she could only pin her hopes on competing with Darth Vader to see whether Darth Vader would capture Yago-Dur first or she would capture Fangduo first. Although this strategy was a bad one, it at least met the most basic strategic intention - to keep her fleet mobile.

However, the situation is not optimistic at the moment.

Severance Tann was standing in front of the holographic scanning structure diagram of the planet Fangduo, thinking. With continuous scanning and detection, this structure diagram was constantly being improved, and many places that were originally blurry were gradually becoming clear.

But at this rate, it would take at least a week to complete the scan of the entire planet. Even so, some factories and structures deep underground still could not be scanned.

It can be seen on the map that the Dawn Kingdom's landing forces have established three landing sites outside the planet's old capital, Fangduo City, and are besieging Fangduo City from three directions. At the same time, the formations composed of ghost fighters and banshee fighters are also constantly bombing the core factories that have been discovered, and have destroyed hundreds of factories.

Some heavily guarded factories were also destroyed by elite troops led by Darth Lilith.

Moreover, with a firm control over the air, the Dawn Kingdom's landing force and the defense force assembled from Fangduo Planet's engineering robots had even produced a casualty ratio of more than one to one hundred!
However, this is not enough to capture Fangduo Planet!

"I've said it many times. If you hand over the planet Fangduo to me, I will help you conquer this industrial world that you have no chance of getting involved in." A cold and crisp voice came from behind Severance Tann.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Alexia Ashford, who still maintained the image of a fourteen-year-old girl, floated behind her. She looked graceful and beautiful in that gorgeous purple dress. Her bright blonde hair and doll-like delicate face made her look like a princess.

However, the cold expression on her face and the insect-like wings growing from her back destroyed this perfect beauty and made her look even more weird.

She flapped her wings and hovered behind Severance Tann like a ghost.

"To appoint a governor of a planet, it must be appointed by His Majesty the King himself. Neither you nor I have the qualifications." Severance Tann said in a deep voice without turning his head.

“Hahahaha…” Alexia laughed, her laughter was cold and pleasant. “Don’t use such excuses to evade me. If you adopt my plan, the fall of Fangduo Planet will have nothing to do with you. You will never be able to touch the Admiral you have been thinking about.”

She flapped her wings and flew in front of Severance Tann, looked at her coldly and said sarcastically: "Or has your plan to climb into the bed of His Majesty the King failed again? Hehehehe..."

"Shut up!" The corners of Severance Tann's mouth were trembling, and her hands were already on the metal hilt at her waist.

Perhaps many times, her extraordinary command ability makes people forget that Severance Tann herself is also a very powerful Force-sensitive person.

"Hehehehe... think about it carefully. Don't forget, the planet Yago-Dur can't wait that long. Hehehe..." Alexia Ashford sneered and flew away from the bridge and returned to her own nest.

……

At the same time, on the ground battlefield of Fangduo Planet.

Dozens of Scorpion tanks had broken through the Imperial defenders' defenses and were bombarding the factory entrances and exits. The 90mm rapid-fire electrothermal cannons fired wildly, firing a large number of armor-piercing shells, blasting the heavy metal door with holes.

The Imperial Stormtroopers inside the factory hid behind bunkers, firing cold shots from time to time, not even daring to show their heads. The elusive Banshee fighters in the sky had already blown up dozens of soldiers who dared to show their heads.

The biggest deterrent of the Banshee fighter to these defenders is that you have no idea whether there is this airborne death god above your head! In the noisy battlefield environment, the insignificant engine sound emitted by the Banshee fighter is completely inaudible.

Darth Lilith jumped down from a Scorpio tank. She leapt directly into the air to a height of more than ten meters, drawing a graceful arc in the air. All the blaster beams and rockets fired at her were blocked by the three-meter-long light whip and could not get close at all.

The moment she landed, whips of light danced around her body, weaving a web of light of death, shredding everything in its path.

However, at this moment, a blood-red lightsaber suddenly slashed across! The light whip immediately wrapped around the lightsaber, and the light net in the sky suddenly disappeared.

Darth Lilim squinted at the man in the black robe in front of him, with a charming smile on his face, "It seems that this trip may not be so boring..."

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~~~!! A dense burst of blasting energy beams was fired, extremely accurate! The light whip was restrained, Darth Lilim immediately turned off the light whip switch and flashed back, and this series of blasting energy beams were all shot on the ground.

Only a team of clone soldiers wearing heavy white power armor emerged from the factory. These soldiers moved very quickly and were equipped with micro anti-tank missiles on their shoulders. While firing, they aimed at the Scorpion tanks that had invaded the factory and fired missiles directly!
Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of explosions destroyed several Scorpion tanks. At the same time, the Fourth Legion soldiers led by Darth Lilim also scattered and engaged in a fierce firefight with these newly appeared enemies.

Darth Lilim was extremely excited. She waved the whip of light in her hand with deadly and beautiful movements. "Hahahaha! Who are you? A dark prophet or an imperial inquisitor? Hahahaha! It seems that this dog Palpatine still can't bear to leave the planet Fondo! Hahahaha!"

"That's it, bitch! When you fall into my hands, I will punish you in ten thousand ways, making you want to live but not to die!" The man in the black robe grinned, "By then, you may remember my name forever - Imperial Inquisition, High Inquisitor, Halmere!"
