Chapter 2564 Start taking action

2564, Take Action

Kobori couldn't quite understand why Lin Nan's attitude seemed to change when he mentioned General Grievous. No matter how smooth he was, he was still a Given in essence. He really couldn't understand the Givens who liked to use mathematics to judge everything.

Lin Nanyi's breathing became a little disordered. He stood up and walked around the conference table a few times, then said to Kobor, "I need a stable rear now. In your opinion, how likely is it that the Galactic Empire's fleet will attack the planet Losar?"

"This judgment should be made by you, not me, General Lin." Kobori reminded very politely, but he still put forward his own opinion, "But in my opinion, the possibility of the Galactic Empire directly attacking the planet Losar is less than 10%. I don't think they would want to stir up this hornet's nest at the star gate, especially under the premise that a main fleet just emerged from this star gate."

Lin Nanyi said: "Since we can confirm that the only ship chasing the Destruction is the Eye of Palpatine, then the movement of the Galactic Empire's fleet must be trying to find a way to merge with the Eye of Palpatine! And we must never let them succeed! Cutting them off and defeating them one by one is my strategy!"

Koboree nodded and said, "I also think this plan is suitable, General Lin. I will fully support your plan. The planet Lothal may be peaceful for a while. Next, I will visit the planet Dak and try my best to stabilize the Mon Calamari so that you can have a stable rear."

"Thank you for your support, Governor Kobori." Lin Nan nodded slightly, turned around, and saluted Kobori very seriously.

Then, he walked straight out of the conference room, came to the bridge command center, and issued an order directly: "Notify the entire army to immediately conduct a two-day combat training! Send out reconnaissance aircraft to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the star region where the Destroyer lost contact! Two days later, the fleet will attack!"

"Yes!" The operations adjutant immediately stood at attention and saluted.

Lin Nanyi said to the signalman on the other side: "Notify the fleet of the Kubindi planet immediately. From now on, they will be under my direct command! General Grievous has nothing to do with them anymore!"

"Yes!"

"Similarly, have them guard Kubindi firmly. Don't let any of our industrial facilities go wrong! Also, send out reconnaissance planes to survey the surrounding star regions. Within three days, set up 40 temporary hyperspace outposts and lay out a giant net to trap Palpatine's Eye!"

"Yes!"

……

At the same time that Lin Nanyi was making combat deployments, Admiral Gideon Tarkin, commander of the Galactic Empire's Eastern Fleet, who had reorganized the main fleet on the planet Boonta, was also issuing combat orders.

"Send an order! As soon as we confirm that the Separatist fleet has found the location of the 'Eye' and begins to move, we will immediately raid the planet Lothal!" Admiral Gideon Tarkin's eyes were extremely determined.

"Uncle Gideon... General! The... Separatist reinforcements have just arrived, are we going to raid their lair?" Garrosh Tarkin was shocked.

Gideon Tarkin snorted coldly and said, "I'm not afraid of their reinforcements coming, I'm just afraid that they won't leave!"

He turned around and taught Garrosh, "You have to remember that understanding the enemy commander's psychology is very important for analyzing the battlefield situation. You have to understand that we have sunk the battleship Destroyer, and the victory report has been sent back to the center of the Empire. It can be imagined that our achievements have spread to the top of the Empire. Therefore, we are not in a hurry... On the contrary, the commander of the Separatists has just come here on an expedition and just learned that the Destroyer has been sunk. What will they think?" Garrosh suddenly realized, "I understand! They must hope to attack us as soon as possible, achieve certain results, and boost morale. Therefore, whether it is attacking our base or looking for the Eye of Palpatine, they will always take action."

"The Eye of Palpatine is not under our control at the moment, so if the Separatists attack it, that would be the best outcome for us," said Gideon Tarkin. "And if they want to come and attack our planet of Bonta, then we need to hold our ground and buy time, waiting for news from the Eye of Palpatine before making plans. This is a medium outcome. The worst outcome... is that they hold their ground and keep collecting intelligence, and by then, they are likely to discover something wrong with the Eye of Palpatine... that would be terrible."

Garrosh nodded.

……

The reconnaissance spacecraft sent by Lin Nanyi quickly arrived at the planet Malagar where the battleship Destruction last sent a message. As expected, they immediately discovered the wreckage of the battleship that had crashed on the surface of the planet.

The huge battleship plunged headfirst into the planet's surface, and the terrible explosion even created a crater with a diameter of tens of kilometers on the planet's surface! And the crater is still burning, and the continuous flames have even ignited the planet's atmosphere!

A large amount of debris and wreckage was also found in the outer space of the planet. According to analysis, some of these fragments were peeled off from the rock structure on the surface of Palpatine's Eye, but this was the only damage suffered by this super battleship.

The reconnaissance ship found no trace of General Grievous and was unable to contact him via the communicator, so it could only report that he might have died.

The hyperspace fluctuations in the Malagar galaxy are very complex, and the movement of Palpatine's Eye cannot be confirmed.

Lin Nanyi had no choice but to give orders to continue expanding the search range with the Malagar galaxy as the center.

……

At the same time, the planet Lothal really became much more obedient, and the resistance forces that were constantly active on the planet really calmed down a lot. As he promised, Kyle-Marr allocated an industrial zone to produce supplies for Lin Nanyi's fleet. In order to facilitate transportation, he also began to expand a spaceport for material transfer.

However, he didn't know that in the distance of the spaceport, a boy was monitoring the construction of the spaceport from afar with a telescope.

He observed for a long time, then suddenly frowned, rolled on the ground, quietly slid down the slope and hid himself.

At this moment, a faint buzzing sound was heard in the sky, and a distortion of air flew past quickly.

"These damn Banshee fighters..." After the air twisted and faded away, the boy curled his lips and muttered back to the other side, where a hoverbike was hidden.

"How's the situation at the spaceport? Ezra Bridger." A young woman wearing a purple Mandalorian helmet asked with a smile.
