Since very few people dared to resist the rule of the Galactic Empire, and the main control areas of the empire were very stable, it had been a long time since anyone had considered the possibility of any surprise attack by any foreign military force. As a fat shortage that everyone dreams of, the garrison commander of the imperial capital is certainly not something that anyone can serve.

The current garrison commander is a young man who has just turned 30 years old, and neither his professional background nor military experience is far from being able to handle this heavy burden of militarism. But since he was the main heir to a well-known merchant family that controlled the trade of dozens of wealthy galaxies, he was officially appointed thanks to his family background + blind loyalty to the emperor and, most importantly, bribes of a large number of high-ranking officials.

Needless to say, such a "talent" naturally cannot be a military genius, let alone a model of integrity. Except for the initial period of his tenure, he honestly learned about the deployment around Coruscant, and the commander-in-chief almost never stayed in the base for long.

Growing up pampered, he couldn't stand the intense life in the barracks, and after discovering that the emperor didn't value his work, he began to learn from countless colleagues with similar backgrounds in the imperial army to hand over the main duties to his lieutenants, and then began to spend his days drinking, just like before he joined the army.

Due to his high authority, he naturally has access to the top celebrities of the empire and the gods of wealth. Taking advantage of his authority as the commander of the garrison, he also opened up some money-making projects for himself, and used public power unscrupulously for private purposes.

Except for a few times when he had to return to the base and pretend to work hard, most of the time he was entangled in a group of officers from the same second-generation background, haunting various high-level clubs in Coruscant. Enjoy the luxurious life they have long been accustomed to.

At this time, he was sleeping in the VIP suite on the top floor, and there were several beautiful women lying next to him, and what happened was self-evident. The communications soldier who had just run to the top floor was rushing into his suite with a nervous expression.

"Commander. I have urgent information. Commander ......" shouted the signal soldier as he ran, and the moment he rushed into the suite, he regretted it a little, because the floor of the room was full of ** marks, and the precious carpet was full of wine stains and human secretions.

Dozens of young ladies of all nationalities lay in the corners, surrounded by disheveled high-ranking officers lying in the midst of wine bottles and flesh. There is hardly any room left in the main hall of the entire private room. The herald was so shocked that he stopped even shouting.

But he quickly restrained himself. After carefully looking at the group of people on the ground, he confirmed that the commander was not here, and immediately rushed straight to the innermost bedroom. That's where the commander is most likely to be found.

"What's the matter?" Soon, the commander of the garrison, whom the herald had been searching for, finally woke up at his shouting. He put on a loose nightgown and stretched as he opened the bedroom door, not giving his herald a good look. But the herald's next sentence almost scared him out.

"His Majesty the Emperor orders the garrison fleet to assemble at once......" The words of the signal soldier made the garrison commander turn pale with fright on the spot, and after confirming this order, he immediately called out to a group of officers outside. Rush back to base as fast as you can.

Since the signal corps is only responsible for conveying this order for an urgent assembly. I don't know the specific situation, let alone the fact that it was actually Vida's rebellion. So the young garrison commander didn't realize the seriousness of the problem at first.

On the way back to base, he gathered his bags and cursed the source of the emergency rally. In his opinion, His Majesty the Emperor is likely to have had some major military accidents, and other military regions have had several major storage and training accidents in the past two years.

The reason for this is simple, it is caused by low level of training or lack of effective maintenance. It was mentioned before, except for a few elite troops. Corruption was rampant within the Imperial Army, and it was naturally impossible for an army that had been embezzled by its superiors to maintain a high level of training and equipment maintenance. So every now and then there will be some accidents.

Due to the high level of equipment and sufficient manpower and funds of the Capital Military District, there have been no similar incidents before. But it's not a few years ago, God knows what level of training is now, at least he, the commander of the garrison, hasn't learned about it for a long time.

By the time he rushed back, the adjutant of the base had already taken to the air with most of the warships in the camp, ready to meet the enemy. The Emperor did not waste time waiting for the garrison commander, and when he contacted this place ten minutes ago, he ordered all the combat troops to go into battle immediately.

Although the fleet of the Coruscant Military Region has several heavy fleets, most of them are not stationed in Coruscant, but patrol and warn in the space of several hundred light years nearby. It will take some time to gather them all back at once.

In a day, more than half of the fleet could be assembled on the outskirts of Coruscant, but they didn't have a full day. "You're finally here, go and answer His Majesty's request for communication, he's been waiting for a few minutes"

After taking the shuttle to his command ship, the adjutant pushed him directly to the communication room without introducing anything, and he stayed on the bridge to continue arranging the deployment of the fleet. In desperation, the garrison commander had to remind him to run into the communication room to receive the emperor's imperial order.

"Commander, you've finally arrived! I hope you still have the strength to command the battle. The emperor finally waited for his garrison commander to say this dissatisfiedly, he had already basically understood what the previous commander was doing through principle sensing. Although he knew that most of the high-ranking officials in his army were of this kind, Palpatine was still a little resentful at the moment of Vader's rebellion.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates were only inspecting the people's situation before, and I don't know what happened, so I ask Your Majesty to make it clear......" Since I don't know what happened to alarm the emperor, the commander can only ask carefully here.

As a person who has been in the imperial officialdom for several years, His Excellency the Commander naturally blurted out lies without blushing. And Palpatine didn't immediately expose him. Because it's unnecessary. Soon this guy will have to work hard for himself and hurt his feelings.

"Here's the thing, Commander. I had just sensed that someone was planning and carrying out an assassination of me, and that the enemy fleet was rushing towards Coruscant......" The Emperor mysteriously introduced his "feelings" and tempted him to ask questions.

This is his consistent method of manipulating others, never finishing his own words, but letting the other party make up for it. In this way, when the object of his persuasion guesses his intention and says it, it is no longer the command he gives, but the will of the other party.

"Who is so bold?" As long as you give the order. The subordinate will definitely lead the fleet to destroy the rebels. Hearing that someone had rebelled, the young commander breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was better that it was not his own subordinates who had an accident.

The military strength of the rebel alliance is really not very good. Even in the rotten Imperial Army, there are many people who don't think much of it. The second generation of Kwon like him, who had never seen a battle, dared to laugh at Vader in private for not taking so long to destroy them.

"Your courage is commendable, Commander. It seems that my choice was not wrong, and the empire is very fortunate to have such a pillar of talent...... It was none other than Lord Vader who was leading the rebellion this time. I expect his and her fleet to arrive within an hour. ”

The emperor's first half of the sentence also made him feel very good. But after hearing that it was Vader's rebellion, the garrison commander was immediately shocked, and almost fell to his knees with a weak leg. No matter what he does in private, Vader's reputation still carries a lot of weight.

Although the garrison commander had never met Vader a few times, he knew that all the opponents who had fought with Vader face-to-face had basically died under his sword, and there were many high-ranking officials who were also from the Imperial camp.

"Your duty is to do everything in your power to stop Vader's fleet from breaking through the defenses. I am a symbol of the empire and cannot leave at this time. I will stick to my post ....... You and your subordinates are not allowed to take a step back, you understand? The emperor didn't care about the other party's sluggish appearance, and gave his own order behind.

"Yes, Your Majesty, we will ......" The Commander hastened to show his loyalty, although he himself was already scared to pee. And the emperor didn't seem to care if he was still afraid, and hung up the communication very simply without waiting for him to finish answering.

For the next hour, the young garrison commander struggled with a difficult mental battle, on the one hand, he wanted to escape, put down his title and everything else and hurry away from the impending battle, and on the other hand, he feared that it was just the emperor testing his loyalty.

After all, until now, he had not been alerted to any hostile attack, and there was no actual evidence that Vader had defected. The emperor himself was known for being suspicious and often testing the loyalty of his subordinates, and it is said that many of them were removed from their posts for failing to pass the emperor's loyalty test.

Under the influence of these thoughts, he did not flee immediately, but followed the emperor's instructions to stay where he was and wait for Vader's arrival. Half an hour later, shortly after he had barely assembled more than a hundred nearby warships to form a two-tier defensive circle, a wave of spatial fluctuations was detected, and then Vader's fleet suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

"Unknown battleship group found, distance 150, unknown number, one super battleship, unknown type......" All kinds of information on the command platform suddenly rushed over, but as the commander-in-chief, he was unaware, because he was already frightened by the situation in front of him.

The specific enemy ship intelligence has not yet been formed, but one thing is certain, this is really a rebellious Imperial fleet, and it is huge, and there is a super-large warship that has never been seen before. At this moment, even more shocking news came.

"The enemy's super battleship is charging the main gun, and they are about to launch!" An officer in charge of monitoring the enemy situation shouted.

"No way, we're all outside each other's maximum range. The deputy commander retorted, but as he spoke, a dazzling light overcame him, interrupting all their communication.

"I should have run away...... " was the last thought of the garrison commander before he lost consciousness, and then his command ship, along with himself and the entire crew, was reduced to a floating debris. (To be continued......)
