The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 2631 The Battle of Bilbulin (Part 4)
2631. The Battle of Bilbo Nymph (Part 4)

The fleet shields projected by the Taotie Titan were not particularly sturdy, but they were enough to allow the Divine Messenger Titan to withstand the most devastating wave of attacks—the proton torpedoes launched by TIE bombers from the ship's flanks and vulnerable positions.

After this wave of attacks was blocked, the Titan warship Divine Messenger, protected by the fleet's shields, began to turn and maneuver towards the other side of the battlefield.

The Titan battleship HMS Envoy was maneuvering in the same direction as Holst-Stretch's flagship, the Executor MK-II class battlecruiser. This maneuver allowed the Envoy to quickly turn in that direction and launch its doomsday weapon to destroy it directly.

This operation, coupled with the appearance of the Titan-class battleship Taotie, made Admiral Holster-Stretch even more nervous. Facing a super battleship that could destroy them with a single shot at any moment, no one could remain calm.

He could only continue to order his flagship to maintain maneuverability, regardless of whether the Divine Messenger had the capacity to attack him with doomsday weapons.

Although his fleet was launching a full-scale attack, his flagship was circling around on the periphery. This looked incredibly ugly and pathetic, but compared to being beheaded so soon after the start of the battle and losing his command center, it didn't matter how ugly it looked.

When Holster-Stretch saw the massive silhouette of the Taotie appear on the battlefield, doubt began to creep into his heart. He started to think that he couldn't possibly win this battle...

Although the Divine Messenger's deflector shields were breached at one point, judging from the Titan warship's combat data, breaching the shields was just the beginning. Its powerful and robust voltage-coated armor was the true source of despair.

But the appearance of the Taotie shattered all of this.

Holster-Stretch is once again in a dilemma: should he continue his offensive while the enemy's forces are still insufficient, or should he quickly retreat?
Continuing the attack does offer an opportunity. More warships are now being deployed, and frontal firepower is increasing; perhaps we really have a fighting chance. However, if a direct assault proves ineffective, we will suffer even greater losses.

What if we recover our forces and defend the planet using the armed asteroids and armed space stations surrounding it? The Titan warship Divine Messenger can use hyperspace beacons to guide more fleets to the scene; if this drags on, the situation will only worsen.

After all, the Titan warship, which was isolated and outnumbered, was completely different from the Titan warship that led a large fleet.
However... after much deliberation, Admiral Streich made up his mind to continue deploying the capital ships and continue the attack!

With such a powerful fleet, Straitch cannot bear the blame for abandoning Bilblin without even a fight.

More Imperial-class Star Destroyers began to advance and spread out around the Dawn Kingdom's fleet formation, the warships tilting slightly forward and firing wildly from their 60 twin-mounted heavy turbo-laser cannons!
A massive force of 250 Imperial-class Star Destroyers, 50 Imperial II-class Star Destroyers, 50 Victory II-class Star Destroyers, and 50 other types of Star Destroyers, including the Tracker-class, Knight-class, and Victory-class, is gradually being deployed. The Imperial fleet's firepower is also being increased.

Even under such siege, the Titan-class battleship, the Divine Messenger, remained unmoved. Eight sets of flagship-level laser arrays in the forward disc structure and six sets on each side of the hull fired relentlessly. Since the start of the battle, more than ten of the Galactic Empire's capital ships had already been destroyed!
The Taotie continuously provided support with its fleet shields, and even though the shields of the Titan-class battleship Divine Messenger were breached twice more, they were still repaired. The armor damaged by the proton torpedo bombardment was also visibly 'repaired' under the repair of the large number of nanobots deployed by the Taotie.

At this moment, the white light flashed again, and two Prophet-class battleships, seven Hells Angel-class battlecruisers, and two Dunov-class battlecruisers arrived at the battlefield, guided by the hyperspace beacon.

Almost simultaneously upon arrival, the Prophet-class battleships and Hellsangel-class battlecruisers charged towards the Imperial fleet's formation. The Dunov-class battlecruiser immediately approached the Prophet-class Titan, assisting it in charging its shields and boosting engine output. Once the Prophet-class battleships began their assault, their captains immediately ordered the activation of the battle array! The battleships' engines were overloaded, and the three flagship-level laser arrays on each side unleashed a furious barrage at an incredibly high rate! The X-ray rate of fire more than doubled! Less than a minute after these two battleships arrived on the battlefield, having activated their battle array, they had already destroyed three Imperial capital ships.

At this moment, the Dawn Kingdom fleet was also suffering heavy losses. Of the warships that jumped over at the beginning, five Hells Angel-class battlecruisers and eight heavy cruisers had been sunk, and most of the rest were also severely damaged.

However, as long as the Divine Messenger-class Titan warship exists, the hyperspace beacon will exist. With the hyperspace beacon present, a continuous stream of reinforcement warships will arrive!

Shortly after the arrival of the second wave of reinforcements, led by the two Prophet-class battleships, ten Hellsangel-class and six Masha-class guided-missile heavy cruisers also entered the battlefield. The Hellsangel-class continued to hold the line, forming an iron wall in front of the Prophet-class Titan battleships.

However, the pressure on the Dawn Kingdom's fleet did not diminish at all, and even increased.

As time went on, the Galactic Empire's fleet gradually deployed its full formation, and the powerful firepower of up to 400 capital ships was almost devastating!
Furthermore, the effect of the phenomenon generator deployed by the Titan warship Divine Messenger began to wane, requiring it to be cooled, recharged, and recirculated again.

With the limitations of the phenomenon generator gone, the Imperial warships were finally freed from the reduction in speed and firepower, allowing them to unleash their full power! Meanwhile, the Dawn Kingdom's warships' overcharged shields and overloaded weapons returned to normal levels.

The situation remains precarious!

On the Dawn Kingdom's side, the losses are also increasing.

However, in the eyes of Admiral Trench, who was commanding the entire battle, the formation was basically stable. The two Prophet-class battleships activated their battle systems, and with the protection of the Taotie Titan and the overwhelming combat power of the Divine Messenger Titan, the Imperial fleet could no longer break through their defenses in a short time.

So in that case...

General Trench swung his whip sharply, and as if on command, another wave of reinforcements arrived.

This time, there are only two warships!

A massive aircraft carrier, 4600 meters long and with an enormous design—the Wangu-class supercarrier!

As the supercarrier entered the battlefield, the new generation of fighter squadrons of the Dawn Kingdom also set out!
