Chapter 940 - 940 505 The Princesss Great RebellionChapter 940: Chapter 505, The Princess’s Great Rebellion Chapter 940: Chapter 505, The Princess’s Great Rebellion The “Princess Major Rebellion” actually broke out a bit later than Gu Hang had estimated.
Previously, he even thought that by the time Tie Nu Shi made its move, he might not have returned to the Dragonhawk Star Domain yet.
In this regard, he believed that the Alliance had made great contributions.
If not for that bloody duel that had broken the backbone of the Fury Flame Battle Group and rendered the ‘Fury’ in Tie Nu Shi temporarily unusable, the Princess Major Rebellion might have been launched even earlier.
Although he really did not want to go to war, this matter was not up to him.
By thrashing the Fury Flame Battle Group and stalling Tie Nu Shi for several months, it was actually quite an accomplishment.
Logically thinking, the current choice of ‘Tie Nu Shi’ was within expectations.
Everyone knew they were going to rebel, and they knew that everyone else knew as well.
The atmosphere had been elevated to such a degree that they had no choice but to rebel.
However, no one expected the situation to be so explosive.
The great rebellion stirred up by Tie Nu Shi was as fierce as fire!
In the 230th year of the 10th millennium since the establishment of the Empire, in February, the Princess Major Rebellion broke out.
Tie Nu Shi issued a public declaration, making it clear that they were the protectors of the entire Princess Star Domain, even the guardians of the entire Spiderweb Domain. All 14 star domains from the Princess Star Domain to the Spiderweb Domain should listen to the Iron Armor Battle Group’s orders and coordinate with the Iron Armor Battle Group’s actions.
“This is for the benefit of the Empire.”
That’s what they said.
The government of the Sacred Terra Empire immediately declared the Iron Armor Battle Group, Fury Flame Battle Group, and Bedrock Shield Warband traitors to the Empire.
The Spiderweb Domain Government immediately followed suit and called for the Empire forces within the space domain to stand guard over their territories; the assembled Star Realm Army and the Imperial Navy began to launch probing offensives towards the Princess Star Domain.
From this perspective, the Empire was clearly prepared.
In fact, the entire political faction led by Minister of Justice Ou Juren had been preparing to militarily eliminate Tie Nu Shi for a long time. However, in earlier years, Holy Terra had not yet reached a consensus, with support factions like Norberto, so the necessary preparations simply could not be fully launched. Ou Juren and his faction were only able to mobilize their own strength, at most making some defensive arrangements.
By the time Norberto was eliminated and the war between the Empire and Tie Nu Shi became inevitable, although the Empire had finally reached a consensus and could prepare for military actions against Tie Nu Shi, the bloated and inefficient political and military institutions of the Empire were simply not capable of acting swiftly.
Over the past year, a lot of time had been wasted on meetings and discussions.
After finally deciding which forces could be dispatched, and having their leaders accept the orders, the process would get stuck again when it came time to gather supplies for them;
Holy Terra had sent envoys to contact some other battle groups within the Spiderweb Domain, excluding Tie Nu Shi, but many of those envoys had not even reached the Spiderweb Domain yet;
There have been multiple inquiries from within the Tribunal institutions to the Silver Tribunal, especially from the Heretic Tribunal and the Vigilance Tribunal, which strongly demanded the Silver Tribunal cut ties with Tie Nu Shi and conduct self-inspections and internal purges.
They did clean up, but there was no movement.
An elite team from the Iron Armor Battle Group interfered with the Silver Tribunal’s internal purge, with politically Empire-leaning factions being eliminated instead. Along with that, a squadron of Battle Nuns and a company of Loyal Heir Stormtroopers sent by the two tribunals, as well as their Judges, were all wiped out.
The Heretic Tribunal and the Vigilance Tribunal were furious, and although they had stepped up the recruitment of new forces, it was difficult to respond to the situation for the time being.
This was the situation on the Imperial Side for the past few months: preparations had indeed been made.
They hadn’t prepared well, but what could they do?
Did the Empire itself know about this situation?
Actually, they had an idea.
They knew that the current preparations were definitely not enough, so often, they were hoping that Tie Nu Shi could start the rebellion later; that the forces within the Spiderweb Domain, and even Princess Domain, could hold back Tie Nu Shi for a longer time.
But… the situation still collapsed.
And it was more catastrophic than even the pessimists had imagined.
It was originally thought that there would still be some forces loyal to the Empire inside the Princess Star Domain. Even if these forces were ultimately inescapable from being purged by Tie Nu Shi, shouldn’t they at least be able to hold on for a while?
Eh? No.
They couldn’t hold on at all.
That month, a total of 472 worlds in the entire Princess Star Domain almost unanimously declared a change of allegiance and sided with Tie Nu Shi.
All Star Realm Army and Imperial Navy units were transferred under the command system of Tie Nu Shi.
Resistance?
It was not completely absent.
But Tie Nu Shi’s preparations for this were too ample. This was their stronghold, where they had operated for too long, and even the slight resistance was expected by them. They knew exactly where problems would arise and had people in place in advance. Upon issuing the declaration, as soon as these issues started emerging, they moved in and quashed them.
The entire Princess Star Domain just switched allegiances like that.
If the Empire could barely accept this turning point, then the events that unfolded next exceeded everyone’s expectations.
By the third month, within the Spiderweb Domain and around the Princess Star Domain, two more star domains almost entirely switched allegiances and joined Tie Nu Shi.
It wasn’t as straightforward as the Princess Star Domain; in fact, there were brutal bloody clashes. But Tie Nu Shi acted quickly and forcefully; even in intense combat, they wanted to handle it with overwhelming military strength and a tough stance.
A United Fleet formed by the Spiderweb Domain, under high-level command in the hope of containing the over-spreading tide triggered by Tie Nu Shi, hastefully entered Tie Nu Shi’s controlled area along with several Star Realm Army Corps, attempting to check Tie Nu Shi’s spread.
However, this fleet disappeared just eighteen days after entering.
It was encircled by Tie Nu Shi’s fleet, and small-scale skirmishes broke out. Then Commander Paulo, without an escort, without weapons, boarded the flagship of this fleet in a small boat and had a talk with the commanding Admiral.
Then, this commander and his Fleet… joined…
