Chapter 2419: Burning Moon (Part )

2420: Burning Moon (Part )

Kingdom of Dawn, Northern Fleet, attack!

Since a day ago, this fleet has been quietly docked 10 light minutes away from the planet, motionless.

After each warship leaves the hyperspace jump and arrives at the target point, it will silently adjust its position and arrange itself into a neat queue.

As more and more warships arrived, the array became larger and larger. However, all the warships left a space in the center of the array, as if waiting for the king to come!

One day later, all the main forces of the Northern Fleet were deployed, and the huge gap in the center of this huge formation became increasingly glaring.

Finally, accompanied by an extremely dazzling white light, the huge Titan battleship appeared instantly and stopped right in the middle of the formation!

The entire array was then complete, and even though it was 10 light minutes away, a murderous aura was felt in the face!

When the huge figure of the Divine Titan battleship appeared, Dunn Wessex, who was watching this scene through the optical sensor in the underground command center of the planet Palin Minor, even felt his body trembling!

However, beside him, several other Galactic Empire Navy generals were whispering to each other, their eyes were also full of shock. They were not concerned about how majestic and domineering the God-Envoy-class Titan battleship was, but what really shocked them was the hyperspace jump of this Titan battleship that was accurate to meters!

Dunn-Wessex was just a layman. He could be a politician or a businessman, but he was not a military commander. But just because he didn't understand, it didn't mean that the generals who graduated from the Imperial Naval Academy didn't understand.

Because it can be seen that after leaving the hyperspace channel, other warships will go to their pre-set positions, generally flying several kilometers, and some have to fly dozens or even hundreds of kilometers. These are all deviations caused by hyperspace jumps and are within the normal range.

But the Titan battleship actually jumped directly towards the center of the fleet's formation! Under normal circumstances, everyone would have cursed the operator for being crazy, as such a jump would likely hit other battleships. But when the Titan battleship actually did it, they finally realized that the Kingdom of Dawn might have mastered an extremely advanced hyperspace jump method that even the Galactic Empire could not master.

At this point, it can no longer be called a jump. This should be called a transition!

With such hyperspace precision, there are so many things that can be done. Perhaps this battleship can even launch an extremely precise decapitation operation and jump directly to the center of the enemy fleet formation!

When the generals explained this to Dunn Wessex, the King of the North went crazy. He shouted hysterically, "I don't care what method you use! You must get Thrawn to come to me! Come to me!!!"

No one dares to stand in front of the Titan battleship, which has such high-precision jump capabilities that it can directly take down the flagship among thousands of ships.

"Governor, please rest assured. Although this Titan battleship looks extremely powerful, the fortress planet we have painstakingly built for hundreds of years is by no means vague. Moreover, we also have a defense fleet stationed here. Judging from the current troop strength, the Separatist fleet cannot shake our defense system." said an Imperial Navy rear admiral.

"Simple defense will never repel the enemy!" Dunn Wessex is also somewhat good at theoretical warfare. "I don't want to hide behind the defense line. What I want is to see that we have enough capabilities to eliminate the invaders! Only in this way can we ensure the safety of the planet Palin Minor!"

At the same time, it is also to ensure his own safety.

"Please rest assured, Governor." Lieutenant General Naka, commander-in-chief of the Palin-Minor Planet Defense Fleet, said seriously.

He turned around and walked to the other side of the command center, and issued an order in a very majestic manner, "All defense fleets immediately change their deployment and maintain a distance of 10 kilometers from the 'Iron Moon'!"

"Yes!"

"All units, immediately enter combat readiness!"

Iron Moon was the name they gave to the small satellite with a diameter of 700 kilometers next to the planet Palin-Minor. They built this satellite into a small fortress with a powerful orbital defense cannon installed on it.

Vice Admiral Naka chose to deploy the fleet 10 kilometers away from the Iron Moon. Here, his fleet will be protected by the orbital defense firepower of both the planet Palin-Minor and the Iron Moon. It can be said to be as stable as a rock.

The rotation and revolution of the Iron Moon were artificially adjusted by planetary engines. The front of the satellite always faced the planet Palin-Minor, where the satellite's energy system and planetary shield system were installed. The back always faced the outer space, where this huge orbital defense cannon and countless turbolaser cannons were installed.

Not only that, the orbit of Iron Moon is synchronized with the rotation of Palin-Minor. The satellite has been hovering over the capital of the planet, 24 kilometers away from the planet. "Charge the Iron Moon Orbital Cannon immediately! Calibrate the distance - 5 light minutes! Pre-aim immediately!" Lieutenant Naka continued to order.

"Yes!"

"The Separatist fleet is advancing, 7 light minutes away!"

"Particle Light Spear strike detected on the way, expected to arrive in 8 minutes!"

"Roger that!"

"Adjust planetary shield power! Set attack window!"

"Yes!!"

On the entire planet of Palin-Minor and its surrounding satellites, armed space stations, and spaceports, billions of people looked up at the sky with great nervousness, looking in the direction of the Kingdom of Dawn fleet.

Would they attack, feint and then turn back to chase Thrawn's fleet, or would they attack without hesitation?

Almost everyone has this question in their mind.

The Northern Fleet was getting closer and closer. When it sailed to a position 5 light minutes away from the planet Palin-Minor, the orbital defense cannon on the Iron Moon, which had already been fully charged and ready to go, finally opened fire!

A dazzling green light instantly pierced the universe!

But this attack had no effect. The Northern Fleet didn't even change its formation. It simply performed a maneuver to avoid this sub-light speed attack.

At the same time, the particle light spears' attacks had already landed on the planets of Iron Moon and Palin-Minor. The planetary shield was instantly activated, blocking all the attacks, but the rippling light of the planetary shield reminded all the people watching this scene on the ground that the attack had begun!

A huge panic instantly swept through every city on the planet, and the residents were panicked, screaming and running around. The imperial soldiers quickly maintained order and threatened with blaster rifles, asking the residents to return home immediately and wait, and not to run around and disrupt the order of the resistance.

The bombardment of particle lances continued, and Iron Moon's orbital defense cannons launched several counterattacks, but with little effect.

At this moment, when the distance between the two sides was shortened to 2 light minutes, the disc-shaped device in front of the Divine-class Titan battleship was seen to change!

The hatch in the middle slowly opened in three directions, revealing a huge gun barrel with a diameter of at least 1000 meters! Then, at the three energy nodes on the left and right sides of the disc, an extremely huge amount of energy began to gather!

These energies began to gradually gather towards the central gun barrel, like six trickles of water, flowing to the barrel, forming a terrifying energy ball that was extremely terrifying, extremely condensed, and extremely powerful!

At this moment, on the planet Palin-Minor and the Iron Moon, almost all the detectors were emitting extremely shrill alarms.

"Report! The enemy Titan battleship is charging!!"

"Energy level... No! This is impossible!!"

"Determine the shooting angle immediately! Focus all energy on the planetary shield!!"

"Prepare for defense!!"
