Chapter 590: When the Death Star Aims at Earth

"Comrades, the earth has reached a critical juncture of life and death, the powerful weapon of the empire has been built in the past ten years, and its power is incomparably huge, capable of destroying a planetary civilization like the earth in an instant."

"And we, Earth, are at the top of the list of planets destroyed by the Empire......"

After the global alarm, Xia Yu's image appeared in every place on the earth that was connected to the projection, almost all the earthlings stopped what they were doing and looked at Xia Yu speaking, under more than ten years of federal propaganda, they also knew the seriousness of the matter, donated money and materials, and sent their sons to join the federal guards, none of them wanted to see their homes destroyed in the war.

"The comrades of the Rebels have been attracting the attention of the Imperial Army for our Earth for more than a decade, but under the nest, there are eggs, and the Earth has developed to this day, and it is time to fight them at the forefront."

"The Earth Expeditionary Fleet, composed of a total of twenty-four cruiser-class space warships, has assembled two million Earth Expeditionary Force, and they will fight to the last moment with the indomitable will and imperialism of the earthlings."

"Boom~~"

Looking at the huge fleet that appeared behind Xia Yu, all the earthlings were boiling, they would not regret entering the earth in this life, and they would like to be the earthlings in the next life.

"Departure~~"

Xia Yu's instructions were transmitted to every warship in the fleet, and I saw that they all turned on the curvature engine one by one, and entered the hyperspace in the eyes of everyone, and they will successfully join the rebels in the depths of the galaxy, and immediately carry out harassment operations against the Galactic Empire.

More than ten years of governing career has given Xia Yu an unparalleled reputation on the earth, and it has also trained him, Hongchen refining his heart may be what he said, and when Xia Yu really understands this moment, he will definitely be able to be promoted from the true immortal to the legendary Taiyi Golden Immortal.

But now it's time to get through the Death Star!

Why did they disperse their forces at such a critical moment, and send nearly half of the only 40-odd capital warships out to form an Earth Expeditionary Fleet and send them away from Earth?

The reason is simple, eggs cannot be put in one basket, if the earth is really destroyed, the two million expeditionary force on the expeditionary fleet is the seed of human civilization.

This probability is very small, and Xia Yu also has enough confidence in his own strength, but there are still some preparations to be made, after all, before Palpatine officially deals with him, the pressure on the rebels is also very high. And one day he will leave this world, and there is a good chance that the remnants of imperialism will resurge.

Such a huge space fleet is Xia Yu's last gift to the earthlings of this world, no matter what the galaxy looks like, as long as the earth is not eye-catching, it will always be able to protect itself.

Maybe when he returns to the real world, he should go to the United States, buy the copyright of "Star Wars", and completely end the entire series, otherwise when the ninth or tenth part is filmed, the earth in the small corner of the galaxy will still be destroyed over and over again.

And at this moment, also in a remote and hidden corner of the galaxy, the Eclipse-class super star destroyer that His Majesty the Galactic Emperor was riding was parked in front of a white sphere.

The diameter of 160 kilometers is not huge, but the eclipse class is far away from the artificial sphere, because the incredible energy used by this space station combined with its own huge mass makes the magnetic and artificial gravity fields of the Death Star equal to that of an orbiting object several times larger than it, and it is no joke that it is accidentally caught by its gravitational waves and collided.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, the DS-1 platform has been fully built, the pilots, and the Imperial Stormtroopers are all in place, may I ask His Majesty the Emperor if he wants to board the ship for review?"

The captain in the wheelhouse saluted Palpatine.

"No need, I want to see his performance on the battlefield more than what he looks like inside, to see if it can deter those planets that are about to move, and deter those rebels."

Because he was not attacked by Master Windu, Palpatine didn't have to hide his appearance in his hood at the moment, but he had a lot more wrinkles on his face.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, your subordinates will do their best."

Wilhoff Tarkin, the commander of the Death Star and the Empire's high-ranking Sector Governor, saluted to the Emperor in the projection.

"Get up!"

Palpatine waved his hand to get all the commanders in the projection up.

"Governor Tarkin, the Imperial Council has been dissolved by me, and the Death Star has been established for this purpose, if you want to deter the entire galaxy, which one do you think is the most suitable choice?"

Palpatine asked in a casual tone.

"Your Majesty, according to reliable information, Governor Bell Organa of Aldlang has been very close to the rebels, and some time ago he tried to find out the secrets about the DS-1 platform, and I think that choosing it as the first target of the Death Star will have the greatest impact on the entire galaxy."

Before the dissolution of the Imperial Diet, Audrang Star had been trying to invade the Imperial Military Department, and after more than ten years of exploration, there was direct evidence that the remnants that remained in the Jedi Temple were rescued by Bell Organa after being let go by Xia Yu.

Such a planet that does not deal with the Empire is indeed the best choice.

"No, no, no, the Odrang people have never been a threat, and they don't need to be in a hurry at this time, I think this blue planet far from the center of the empire is very good."

The map of the entire galaxy of the Milky Way quickly zoomed in and moved to the area marked by the Emperor.

"Orion Spiral, Earth?"

"That's right, it's Earth, Governor Tarkin, and I ask you, in the name of the Emperor, to set out immediately and destroy this planet."

"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor."

Although it is not clear why His Majesty the Emperor is so obsessed with a remote planet, since it is an order, it is carried out.

The huge combat space station of the Death Star was instantly busy, with an astonishing range of fusion reactions taking place in the super-large supermatter reactor in the center, and the huge reactor power was transmitted to the ion engine network.

The heavy artificial star began to move and accelerate in the universe, and 123 hyperspace-driven field generators connected into a single navigation matrix turned on the hyperspace flight mode after the Death Star's speed was increased to the extreme.

"Huh~~"

The Death Star in front of the Eclipse-class Super Star Destroyer instantly entered hyperspace and disappeared.

"Your Majesty, are we going to Orion together to watch the battle?"

The captain bent over and suggested.

"No need, go back to Coruscant, and let Governor Tarquin report back to me when this is over."

Sitting on his throne, Palpatine rejected the captain's proposal, the hatred for Xia Yu to deceive himself has turned into another emotion after more than ten years of fermentation, he doesn't need to see the destruction of the earth with his own eyes, he just needs to know this result is enough.

On the Earth side, he has always been concerned, the destroyer-class space battleships have been launched from the space dock one by one, this small planet has been nervously preparing for fate, but all resistance in the face of the death star is in vain.

Will things really be the same as Pa Huang imagined?

"Master Windu, oh no, the spy we planted in the Imperial army has sent back the news at the risk of being exposed, that the Imperial superweapon has been manufactured and debugged, and has entered hyperspace."

"What?"

In the Rebel Alliance, Master Wendu is dealing with the government affairs that have been squeezed down, and the Earth Expeditionary Fleet has just successfully joined forces with them a few days ago.

"Did the Imperial army go to Audrang?"

"No, the direction they entered hyperspace is the Orion arm in the remote area of the galaxy, and their target this time is very likely to be Earth."

Hearing the words of his subordinates, Wen Du "chuckled" in his heart, the rebel army can still be broken into pieces, but the huge earth, with a population of tens of billions, cannot escape at all.

Earth, dangerous.

"Contact the Earth side immediately, and I'm going to speak to their Supreme Speaker right away."

Without anyone in the world, the sun will rise as usual the next day, the original meaning of this sentence is to warn a person not to be too self-righteous, but in interstellar warfare, this sentence is more literal, because most likely, the sun will not rise the next day.

"Your Excellency, it's half past six in the morning, please get up."

A nice voice sounded in Xia Yu's ears, and the curtains next to the bed automatically opened to both sides, and warm sunlight shone in from the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Whew~~"

Xia Yu slept quite soundly this night, and he thought that the immortals didn't need to sleep, but even the Bodhi Ancestor had to sleep at night, and Xia Yu was no exception, and he seemed to feel something when he changed into the speaker's robe.

"Toot ~ Toot ~ Toot ~ Your Excellency the Speaker, urgent communication."

"Pick it up."

The projection of Wendu reappeared in Xia Yu's Speaker's office.

"Speaker Xia, the Imperial Super Weapon I told you before has rushed in the direction of the Earth, and we have no time to support you, so we can only tell you the news."

"Okay, I got it."

Compared to Master Wendu's nervousness, Xia Yu's reaction was a little too calm, or he had been waiting for this day for a long time, so long that he could start counting from the second time he stood on the earth of this world.

"The Earth will not surrender, and Palpatine will not accept the surrender of the Earth, for which the Earth can only fight to the death."

After speaking, Xia Yu turned off the communication, and looked at the bright sunlight outside the window, tomorrow, the sun will still rise, illuminating the whole earth.

"Toot ~~~"

The alarm sounded again around the world, and countless earthlings left their homes and lined up to enter the large underground shelter. The Earth enters a first-level combat state.

A large number of councillors gathered to ride in a small spaceship in the square of the Federal Center, and everyone came together to the Guardian, the flagship of the Earth Fleet.

This is the longest of the destroyer-class space battleships, and its 19,000-meter hull is comparable to Darth Vader's personal flagship, the Executor-class interstellar dreadnought.

Thousands of energy cannons are lined with sleeve-length ships, showing the aesthetics of violence while also revealing the wisdom of human beings on Earth, which is a battleship made by integrating a planet and the power of a civilization.

Commanding such a fleet, Xia Yu is confident that he will go head-to-head with any fleet of the empire, but the Death Star, even if it is the main gun of his flagship, cannot blast through the powerful deflection shield of this armed space station, and the individual combat spacecraft can freely shuttle inside and outside the deflection shield that specializes in guarding against the high-power main guns of warships.

So do you want to use a proton torpedo to attack the exhaust hole on the surface of the Death Star that leads directly to the huge reactor at the core of the base, as in the original book?

No, this is not a challenge for Xia Yu at all.

"Huh~~"

Before the neatly arranged fleet, the void underwent hyperspace distortion, and an incomparably huge gray-white sphere slowly expanded from one point to three-dimensional.

Seeing this scene, the other councilors watching the battle instantly became nervous, an armed space station the size of a satellite, the diameter is eighty times longer than their largest flagship, how can this battle be fought?

Unlike these councilors, all Xia Yu had in his heart at this moment was excitement, the excitement of seeing the Death Star, and the excitement of destroying such a powerful weapon with his own hands.

Yes, he wants to destroy the Death Star, and this is the beginning of the fall of the Galactic Empire.

"Order all battleships, charge the main guns, and fire a salvo."

Regardless of whether his subordinates were afraid or not, Xia Yu directly gave the order to fire a salvo, and the main guns of the twenty-four battleships were all aimed at one point on the Death Star in the shortest possible time.

"Put~~"

"Buzz~Buzz~Buzz~......"

Dozens of incomparably thick pillars of energy light instantly concentrated the Death Star, and the dazzling light instantly made everyone lose their vision, and the light did not dissipate until more than ten seconds later.

The Death Star in sight was unscathed.

This?

Everyone looked at the Supreme Speaker behind them, Xia Yu has been leading them for more than ten years, and they have no choice in the face of such a situation, what about the Supreme Speaker?

"Hehe, I can't help myself."

Looking at the images transmitted from outside, Governor Targin said disdainfully, in the face of the Empire's ultimate weapon, all the actions of the earthlings are to hit the stone with eggs, and even if they launch a suicide ramming with one warship, they will not be able to tear through the biased shield of the Death Star.

"Maybe it would be more impactful for them to watch their planet being destroyed than to wipe them out directly, activate the main laser cannon, aim at the earth and prepare to shoot."

"Yes, Your Excellency, Commander."

As soon as Tarkin's order was delivered, all the members in the control room were busy.

"Hum~~"

The main laser cannon began to accumulate, and a huge amount of energy was directly transmitted from the supermatter reaction chamber to the array of Kaiber crystals, and eight individual branch laser beams, one by one, were generated, converging into a highly concentrated point under the magnified reflection of the multi-faceted magnification crystal.

"Your Excellency, what shall we do now?"

Seeing the main laser cannon of the huge sphere on the opposite side lit up, a European parliamentarian finally couldn't help but ask, because the array radar told them that the laser cannon that was thicker than the diameter of their warship was aimed at the earth behind them.

There is no doubt that the energy of this blow can penetrate the earth, as long as it is hit, the planet will shake, and tens of billions of compatriots will die on the spot.

"Whew~~"

"Don't panic, you and I will come, all the battleships will be on standby."

With a long sigh of relief, Xia Yu stood up from the seat of the supreme commander, and now it was time for him to play.
