Chapter 657: Cruel Choice
Matt Horner stood with his hands behind his back and his feet likepasses. He looked at Qi Jian, the Chief of Staff of the Fourth Civilization on the screen in front of him, and said very seriously: "The 19th Army deployed 80 Venator-ss Star Destroyers attacking Bespin... I understand."
Qi Jian nodded and said, "Then, I''ll leave Kinyen to you."
Matt Horner did not speak but gave a firm Military Salute.
...
At 8:00 p.m. on August 10th, Gctic Standard Time, only half an hour after the Fleet of the Gctic Republic entered the Bespin System, the 60 Warships of the Dawn''s Fleet A, which the Gctic Republic believed had gone to Christophsis, broke away from the superstructure. They appeared in front of the Kinyen Defense Line painstakingly managed by the 19th Army of the Gctic Republic!
Looking at the Four Gn I Space Defense tforms from Gn Arms armed to the teeth on the Sensors, as well as the Tight Defense Lineposed of 30 Venator-ss Star Destroyers, 20 Arquitens-ss Light Cruisers and more than 200 Small Spaceships of Various Types, Matt Horner looked serious.
The Defenders of the Gctic Republic are obviously well prepared. The Starfighters have all taken off. The number of Z-95 Headhunter Starfighters and V-19 Torrent Starfighters surrounding the Four Gn I Space Defense tforms and those Venators is...
10,500 Starfighters!
Matt Horner stood in the center of his Sova-ss Carrier as his gship, but the expression on his face did not fluctuate at all. With a big wave of his hand, he issued the first Combat Order, "Keep your distance! All fighters take off! Kol-ss Battlecruisers start charging, the countdown is 30 seconds, and the Hypermatter Railgun is ready to fire!"
10 Sova-ss Carriers began to take off Starfighters, all Wraith Starfighters, the number was 2,400! Each Carrier has also begun to deploy Unmanned Missile tforms around.
At the same time, 10 Hiigaran-ss Battlecruisers and 10 Marza-ss Heavy Cruisers also entered the position of Fire Cover.
The Hypermatter Railguns in front of the 30 Kol-ss Battlecruisers began to charge. As the Huge Energy was extracted from the Antimatter Reactor and converged into the Gun Bore, the Muzzles in front of the Battleships lit up like the sun!
"Launch!" Matt Horner gave an order, and 30 Kol-ss Battlecruisers fired immediately!
Through the porthole of the gship, the Light from the Hypermatter Railgun was so dazzling that it almost made his eyes unable to see the surrounding scenery clearly.
Thirty Huge Shells hit the Gn I Space Defense tform code-named A by Matt Horner almost at the same time. Even with the Huge Energy Supply of the Gn I Space Defense tform, the Deflector Shield was broken down, and at least 4 Shells directly hit the Armor of the Gn I Space Defense tform in the middle, countless fragments flew around in an instant, and violent mes and thick smoke were even ejected from the middle.
Soon, the Gn I Space Defense tform began to separate the Damaged Module from the Cabin as the Bay was lowered, and the damage was contained.
Almost in the next second, the Powerful Firepower of the Republic Fleet poured over like raindrops, and the Tens of Thousands of Starfighters rushed forward like locusts!
...
At the same time, in the Moddell Sector, the Capital of the Ayrou Civilization, Annaj, theary Pce.
"Our Main Fleet hasunched a General Attack on Bespin, and at the same time, reinforcements are also being sent to the rear to attack with the Main Force of the Fleet." A Jedi Knight in a Brown Robe said while bowing in front of Queen Ayrou.
This 40-year-old Falleen Woman is Yahe Yah, the Jedi Master who seeded Master Shen-Jon and came to Ayrou for Underground Work.
As soon as Dawn was mentioned, Queen Aryou''s expression became very ugly, but she still maintained her rationality and said in a deep voice: "You should understand that we don''t have the strength topete with Dawn. Your War broke out and we withdrew from the Republic and from then, until now, I have fully seen the strength of Dawn"
Unlike the initial friction with Dawn, Queen Ayrou has now fully understood the strength gap between the two sides.
Among other things, two months ago, the Gctic Republic''s mighty 60 Venator-ss Star Destroyers went to attack the Bespin that was just upied by the Dawn. How many came back? Not to mention a Race like the Ayrou who can''t even match the strength of a Thousand-Meter-ss Warship like this!
"What you need is not Military Confrontation, but Political Confrontation, and a Public Opinion Confrontation. I also know about the exploitation of the Ayrou Civilization by Dawn. The Vashans have been stripped from your control and upied Ovise III, one of your Industrials, and if this continues, you will only be their Vassals..." Yahe Yah said.
Queen Ayrou''s tone became cold, "You should know that your suggestion is equivalent to telling our Ayrou Civilization to use our flesh and blood to fight against the Battleships and Tanks of Dawn. Could it be that you, as a Jedi Knight, should make such a suggestion?"
Yahe Yah sighed and said: "I just want to avoid the situation from developing in a worse direction... For me, this is also a dilemma because Dawn is a member of the Separatists. Their Fleets continue to attacks loyal to the Gctic Republic through Annaj, which is also very unfavorable to the position of the Ayrou Civilization..."
She bowed her head deeply.
Indeed, for a Jedi Knight who should be bright and righteous, instigating the Ayrou Civilization to resist the absolutely powerful Dawn is definitely against the doctrine of the Jedi Order. But she has no choice because it was the orders of the Supreme Strategic Command who told her that the Ayrou Civilization is responsible for Dawn''s Fleeting in and out of the Annaj Hyperspace Lane, which vites their Neutral Position, and the most important thing is...
The Ayrou Civilization withdrew from the Gctic Republic before, and the Gctic Republic has no responsibilities or obligations towards the Ayrou Civilization.
So in fact, there are only two options in front of Yahe Yah for the Ayrou Queen
Option 1: The Ayrou Civilization is forced to rise up, fight and get brutally suppressed by Dawn, but at least they showed their position and attitude toward the Gctic Republic.
Option 2: The Gctic Republic directlyunches a War against the Ayrou Civilization and Annaj, a Neutral with Force, then this ce will be a cruel battlefield.
Yahe Yah took a deep breath, overwhelmed by the hesitation and pain in her heart, and said solemnly: "This is your only chance... because if the Ayrou Civilization doesn''t express their attitude, the Gctic Republic... will take action against you..."
