บท 73: Phase 2
My eyes turned to the 30 Officers crouched on both knees Infront of me, handcuffs behind their arms, and troopers standing above them.
These were 30 of Tarkin's Supporters within the Judicial Outer-Rim Security Force, either in the Military or Navy.
It had been extremely easy. When we arrived the Judicials were already running around and arresting the 30 individuals, and with the arrival of our own personnel it quickly turned to our favour.
While this was happening I read the backside of the letter, this included people Tarkin, wanted gone.
Oh this old bastard, although he was annoying, power hungry and militaristic stupid.
His brain was still extremely fast, he had utilised a respectable move. He tried to get his opposition arrested and friendlies not.
It was a smart move to use this chance to get rid of them without him getting any backlash or suspicion.
However it backfired the second we got our hand on it.
I then used those Officers to replace the previous one, installing them with a sense of loyalty due to my kindness and dealing with the large problem named Tarkin for them.
Those arrested were also rounded up in the hangar of 'The Dauntless'
I then turned to the men.
"Your affiliation with the Galactic Republic, Republic Navy and Judicial Fleet has been terminated, severed. You no longer work for us. You have all been accused and found guilty of said traitorous acts; Conspiracy to destroy an Republic Ally, Conspiracy to destroy an Republic Fleet, Conspiracy to murder a member of Republic High Strategic Command, first level insurbordination, active sabotage towards the Republic for personal gain, active sabotage against the Republic. Along with other minor crimes." I told them. I then began shouting out names.
"J… F…. E… You 23 have been removed from active duty and will serve 25 years in prison."
"H… D…. L….., you 5 have been removed from active duty and will serve 15 years in a work camp and 20 years in prison."
"Maarisa Zinsj, and Laslo Dorits, you have been sentenced to death." I said, before taking out my pistol.
This was a pistol I used for formal works, it was precisely the same as an Desert Eagle, it was black with golden outline and lines across the pistol.
And with two quick shots I ended the life of those two supporters. They were something called slug blasters, and it worked like a desert eagle as well, shooting bullets.
And with that I turned around and walked off as the officers were dragged to their cells.
While walking I took out a Handeld Holographic Communicator and Yularen appeared.
"Ensure the prison transport ship is attacked by pirates. And have the droid move." I told him and he nodded.
I then took out my handheld communications device and called Captain Will.
"Set course back to Sullust, take the Eriadu Fleet with you." I told him, and I got a reply with a bit too much joy.
As I was taking the elevator to the bridge my comm-device rang.
I took it and activated it, the voice of Captain Will came.
"We've jumped and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine is requesting your presence." He told me.
"Very good, direct him to meeting room 2." I told him as the doors to the elevator open.
I walked straight into the meeting room, and there was the entire Republix Strategic Command.
"Greetings, I suppose you wish to know the origins of my recent arrests?" I asked them as I sat down.
"Hmm, enlighten us, you must." Yoda said.
I nodded.
"Upon my arrival at Sullust alongside my own fleet and Republic Troops we were met by a large CIS Fleet. We fought them and eventually came ontop but it required a devious tactic from Admiral Trench." I told them before turning to the reason.
"Immediately upon arrival I asked for the support of the Eriadu Defense Fleet, also formally known as the Judicial Outer-Region Security Force." I told them, and of course someone caught on.
"Eriadu Defense Fleet? They are just headquartered there, not obligated to defend it above others." Admiral Dao said.
"Correct, but Admiral Tarkin and the Officers of said Fleet did not understand what was explained by Admiral Dao. They refused a direct order to reinforce us and remained. They used the excuse of a CIS Fleet, but if 15 Dreadnaughts kept them from being attacked, then 15 Dreadnaughts, 2 Imperator-Class Star Destroyer, 4 Valiant-Class Star Destroyer and 25 other medium-capital ships should do the same." I told them.
"Hmm, this is a problem. Leave Eriadu undefended for less than an hour is not even comparable to the loss of 12 Acclamators, 200 thousand Clones and a Veridian Fleet." Admiral Coburn said.
"I agree, which is why I removed all the officers and declared them guilty. I talked with High Admiral Wulf Yularen beforehand and he agreed and accepted my actions. As the Chief Military Judge he approved my actions as legal." I told them, and with that I had won over most of them.
"But tell me dear, why did you arrest Admiral Tarkin?" Palpatine asked.
"Simple, while the Battle ensued my Munificent's have been outfitted with advanced jamming techniques and advanced transmission tracking devices. And we stumbled upon a transmission between Admiral Tarkin and Vice-Admiral Maarisa Zinsj, where he told Maarisa to ignore it and to let me die, no matter my pleads."
I told them as the Audo-records of said conversation happened.
"And as such Tarkin has been demoted to Captain and he will not be able to lead any group larger than an element." I finished and with that they calmed down.
"I see, how is the campaign going?" Palpating asked.
"Sullust has fallen, I've taken the Judicial Outer-Rim Fleet, I'll reorganise them into the Republic 18th Sector Fleet." I admitted and stated at the same time.
"Additionally I'll begin phase 2 and start the attacking of the upper CIS planets." I told them.
And with that a few minor decisions were made and starting of Judicial Forces honourable discharge would begin in 2 months time.
And with that it ended.
Immediately after I contacted Yularen.
"Greetings, M'Lord. Seems everything went according to your plan." Yularen stated and I smiled.
"Indeed, but I have a new mission for your agency." I told him.
"Alright." Was his response.
"Get names on every single Judicial and whom will be terminated first. Then make offers on position based on their skill and experience. We'll be working hard to recruit those discharged, additionally I need you to spread rumours that I heavily advocated for keeping the Judicials but were overwhelmed by the Senators." I told him with a smile.
Yularen nodded, he knew precisely what to do. He had made similar rumours hundreds of time to counter anti-Senator rumours or General rumours regarding the Senate, even to counter truths.
And with that, as we were heading to Eriadu I sat down at my desk to begin going over the planets needing conqueroring.
The total planets numbered 12 Planets.
Meaning I'd split my forces into 7.
6 Attack Fleets and 1 Sullust Fleet.
The first 4 Fleets would be led by a single Valiant and 2 Gladiator-Class Star Destroyers. They would then be furthermore supported by 2 Acclamators and 3 Cumulus-Class Corsairs.
The support ships would be 9 Carrack-Class Light Frigates, 2 DP20 Gunships, and 2 CR-90 Corvettes.
The 5th and 6th will be led by 10 Dreadnaughts each, a mix of Sullust Defense Guard and the new Sector Fleet.
The 5th got supported by 15 Carrack-Class Light Frigates, 10 CR90 Corvettes and 30 DP20 Gunships.
Essentially the Sullust Defense Guard plus 5 Dreadnaughts.
Meanwhile the 6th had;
10 Dreadnaught-Class Heavy Cruisers.
12 Arquitens-Class Light Cruiseds.
15 Modified Consular-Class Corvettes.
And 20 CR90 Corvettes.
Basically the entire Judicial Outer-Rim Fleet minus 5 Dreadnaughts
Meanwhile the Sullust Fleet would include 2 Imperator-Clas Star Destroyers, 5 Munificent-Class Star Frigates, 1 Immobilizer-418 Cruiser, 2 Cumulus-Class Corsairs, 21 Carrack-Class Light Frigates and 8 CR90 Corvettes.
There were also 2 Lucrehulk-Class Battleships but those might be moved around depending on circumstances.
The 1st Task Force would be sent to the closest Byilura, which had a low population rate. They were meant to simply destroy any ground militaries and deploy a garrison.
They would then move onto Arbra, which would be much easier and no garrison was needed, they simply needed to officialise their membership to us.
Only 7000 humans and 400 other species and would be convinced easily.
After that they would return and escort a Lucrehulk to Plagem where ships could replenish troops put in garrisons and get new to put in others.
Additionally General Tyr was sending a single Lucrehulk down to Woostri, having 150 000 new Veridian Troops, bumping our numbers to 350 000.
Already placed garrisons would be replaced by local garrisons after their pledge to the Veridian Kingdom, and a bit of training the new garrison.
The 2nd Task Force would head to Indupar, they would likely be getting some resistance from the Induparan Monarchy, but it wouldn't be enough, after that they would remain there until the rest return. Protecting the hyperlane coming in there, not yet named.
I might just name it.
Meanwhile the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Task Forces would head together to Vondarc.
On Vondarc we'd do a power stunt, and we'd take out the 100 000 strong Militia or force them through surrender through either naval power or army.
Following that the 3rd and 5th Task Forces would head to Lazerian through Plagen, where they'd likely fight a large battle against the 475 Million population of Lazerian IV.
Once there they would split up, the 3rd heading to Wroona to escort the Lucrehulks to Woostri.
Meanwhile the 5th would head to Kerkoidia, which was largerly unprotected.
Apparently there were a single Munificent due to General Whorm Loathsome coming from there, but the 5th could deal with it easily.
Their population was also not more than 20 Million.
Meanwhile, Woostri would be harder.
With 18 billion in population, they'd be hard to control.
As such the 6th Task Force was to simply blockade the planet, not allowing anyone to leave nor enter.
They would attack together with the 4th Task Force, but after defeating their meagre naval forces according to reports the 4th Task Force would head to Vandelhelm, I expected less resistance even though they had 40 million inhabitants due to their Monarchy already in place and mainly being human.
So the propaganda workers would have it easier.
The 4th Task Force would then perform the long journey to Kinyen through Yag'Dhul, taking the planet with 2 million in population Epica while moving there.
The 4th Task Force would experience most combat, which is why 'Dauntless' was with them.
Meanwhile the 1st Task Force would attack Epsi Nadir after delivering the Lucrehulk to Woostri.
And after taking that they would head back alongside most other fleets or assist anywhere needed.
If the 4th Task Force needed help then they'd ask the 2nd Home Defense Fleet on Yag'Dhul, the Veridian Fleet.
After that we would take a break, let the garrisons return after planets join us and prepare for the larger part of the campaign. Perhaps get some Republic Reinforcements.
And with that we jumped out of hyperspace and I walked into the hangar, I would need to get back onto my flagship.
