2576: Aggression Like Fire (Part )
"General...the Divine Revelation-class battleship is ready to open fire." The adjutant walked over and said.

"Keep moving!" General Grievous growled, without saying much.

"Yes..." The adjutant immediately saluted and conveyed the order.

The Divine Revelation-class battleship was equipped with six sets of flagship-level laser arrays, which were arranged on both sides of the battleship, three sets on each side. Therefore, in order to fire, the battleship had to be turned sideways. But in this way, if you want to fire straight ahead, you can't maintain a full speed posture.

But General Grievous' choice was not to open fire and continue the attack!

He had only one goal - to use these 10 Divine Revelation-class battleships to engage in head-on combat with the Galactic Empire's fleet!

Under his command, the Dunov II-class heavy cruisers continuously provided additional engine output and shield capacity to the Divine Revelation-class battleships, ensuring that these battleships could exert combat power far beyond normal levels.

At this time, Lieutenant General Lin Nanyi turned pale and fell into deep self-doubt. He held his head and muttered, "This is impossible! This is impossible! Why would they appear on the planet Losar? Why?"

General Grievous glanced back at him and said coldly, "Palpatine's Eye is out of control, and the Galactic Empire fleet must take the initiative to attack, so the only question is when they will take the initiative to attack. Considering the strength comparison between the two sides, if a route takes three days to reach the combat target, then unless the time is compressed to within one day, any action will be courting death. Therefore, the Galactic Empire will not choose the planet Lothal, but will choose other targets."

His voice was as unpleasant as a broken bellows, and it was obvious that something was wrong with him. However, he continued, "But according to intelligence, the Galactic Empire's fleet did not choose any targets, but just stayed where they were. This is abnormal. Since it is abnormal, there is only one possibility - they have already taken action. Cough cough cough cough!"

General Grievous coughed violently, and then stopped talking. He stood quietly, supporting the edge of the holographic star map with his hands.

After hearing General Grievous' explanation, Lin Nanyi also clearly felt that he was not in a good state. This was obviously a reminder to him. Under such circumstances, Lin Nanyi could no longer have any hostility towards General Grievous' behavior.

He also understood that he was obviously too reckless this time.

Without finding out the battle situation, he blindly set the goal of destroying Palpatine's Eye and took away all of his main fleet to a place far away from his headquarters. This obviously gave the other side an opportunity to take advantage.

In fact, if he could ensure the safety of the planet Lothal while continuously investigating the war situation and not acting rashly, he would not give the Imperial Fleet any chance.

The strength of his fleet is obviously superior to that of the Imperial fleet that lost the control of Palpatine's Eye. With this premise, as long as he is not in a hurry, his strategic space will be much larger than that of the Galactic Empire.

It was just that his eagerness for quick success, coupled with the two consecutive assassinations on Planet Dark, led Lin Nanyi to make a wrong judgment, making him believe that the current situation was on the verge of getting out of control, so he took the risk to attack.

Little did he know that it was because he took the risk that the situation got out of control!
It is indeed as General Grievous said. If the Galactic Empire wants to launch an attack, then it is absolutely impossible to take the route that takes three days. And they definitely cannot stay where they are and wait for the Eye of Palpatine to be destroyed, so they must take action. If the problem of the voyage to Lothal cannot be solved, then the Imperial Fleet will definitely choose other targets. In short, it will definitely move.

The previous intelligence has always been that they did not take any action. This actually proves that they did take action, but it was a strategic deception!
Lin Nanyiyi did not notice this, and instead took this strategic deception as a reason to take the initiative to attack. This was a serious oversight on his part as an independent fleet commander!
The battlefield is full of intrigue and deception, and intelligence is true and false. If you cannot make correct judgments among the massive amount of true and false intelligence, then you are not a qualified general!

Judging from the fact that the Galactic Empire has already arrived at the planet Lothal to launch an attack, while he was still complacently ordering a general attack on the Eye of Palpatine, the Galactic Empire's fleet was already on its way to the planet Lothal!
Under such circumstances, General Grievous returned at the critical moment and forcibly seized command of the fleet, and then quickly returned to the planet Lothal to provide support within the most extreme time possible. This can only be said to be God's blessing for the Fourth Civilization!

At this moment, 10 Divine Revelation-class battleships have directly penetrated into the center of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer array. The flagship laser arrays on both sides of the battleships have risen and expanded into cylindrical shapes, and faint rays of light flashed rapidly.

In sharp contrast to this insignificant flash, the Imperial-class Star Destroyers that were illuminated by the surrounding laser flashes were bursting into large balls of fire and explosions!

The most terrifying and extreme weapons often appear in the most simple and unpretentious form.

There are no gorgeous lights and shadows, no brilliant colors, only the destructive energy output!

This reckless fighting style shocked the Imperial Fleet. Admiral Gideon Tarkin, who was commanding the battle on his flagship at the moment, looked at the flaming Stargate and punched the table in dissatisfaction.

One hour! At most one hour! He could cause serious damage to the Star Gate!
But...he doesn't have an hour left!

The devastating laser weapons of the 10 Divine Revelation-class battleships are one thing, but the firepower erupting from the 200 heavy cruisers in the distance is equally terrifying.

The upper and lower twin hypermatter electromagnetic cannons installed on the Cole II-class heavy cruiser, and the improved Yamato guns installed on the Minotaur-class heavy cruiser, even if the firepower output of these warships is still slightly behind that of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer, has undoubtedly reached the level of kilometer-class battleships!

No matter how powerful the Imperial-class Star Destroyer is, it cannot ignore such powerful firepower.

And there is the almost invincible Divine Revelation-class battleship!

Admiral Gideon Tarkin quickly made a judgment that if he was determined to give up the fleet, he could undoubtedly destroy the stargate. But once he did that, what would be the result?

There will be no more reinforcements for this battle that broke out in the distant east, and it is not just the Kingdom of Dawn that is coming.

Even if he destroyed the star gate, the main fleet of the Kingdom of Dawn was still there, so the war situation would collapse quickly and the Galactic Empire would completely lose control of the East.

Staring at the Revelation-class battleship that was wreaking havoc in his own camp, Admiral Gideon Tarkin squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Retreat!"
