67 Ulum Siege 2

Ulum Ground war

"Commander we have pushed the enemy back from the capital city and their retreating as we speak," Said a soldier

"Good, since the enemy is retreating, bring the injured back into the city and reorganize the defensive line just in case they attack again," said the Commander. "Also, reinforcements from another army will arrive at the city soon as they have just defeated a major enemy army, so don't be alarmed when you see a bunch of transports flying through the sky," he added.

The soldier saluted and proceeded to convey the commander's orders to the frontline soldiers. After the soldier had left, the Commander received a Holo call from the Admiral of the 1st Royal Fleet, which he answered, and Admiral Thrawn appeared on the screen in front of him.

"Greetings, Admiral Thrawn," The Commander said. "It's a joy to see you, and we've been waiting for you and the Emperor's arrival."

"Yes, we have just recently arrived above the planet and are fighting the enemy fleet, and the Emperor has just recently sent a spec ops team onto the enemy command ship to capture the enemy's Leader, so we should be finished with the enemy fleet shortly. In the meantime, how is the ground battle going?" Thrawn asked.

"I just got a report that another defense army is heading our way to assist with the defense of the capital from another city that has already completely destroyed the enemy army that was attacking their city, and once they meet up with us in the capital we should be able to eradicate the enemy from around the capital," said the Commander since he was confident once reinforcements arrive he will be able to defeat the enemy army completely.

"It appears the enemy is becoming desperate to destroy the planetary shield, but by the time they get near to doing so, their fleet will have already been destroyed," Admiral Thrawn said. "In the meantime, the Emperor wants you to defend the city and protect the citizens, and you know what to do if it comes down to saving the shield or the citizens, right?" remarked Thrawn

"Admiral Thrawn, don't worry. I know which one comes first, and when the time comes, I will not hesitate to put my life on the line to protect the citizens "With a serious expression on his face, the Commander stated that he knew what to do and that he would risk his life to protect the Imperium's citizens.

"Good," said Admiral Thrawn, "though I doubt you would need to risk your life now I will leave you to it and I will see you shortly after the battle is over."

After the call ended, the commander began to consider how to strengthen the frontline, as the majority of their vehicles were stuck in the military base, which was a few miles from the capital and under severe enemy assault. The situation in the base, however, was improving as the heavy vehicles decimated the enemy troops and pushed them back.

Vong Command Ship

The Elite forces that slipped onto the Vong command ship are currently engaged in heavy combat with the Vong soldiers on board. The Vong numbers were large, but the Imperium soldiers had the upper hand in terms of power, as their suits increased their strength and absorbed the majority of the damage. With both Atriox and Anakin fighting at the front, the enemies were quickly losing ground and would be defeated.

Atroix was swinging about the Emperor's new Hammer, marveling at how powerful it was and how light it was for such a formidable weapon. He could squish numerous foes with one strike and it was light for such a powerful weapon. The Vong, however, did not let up even after many of them had died and continued to strike fiercely at the intruders.

Anakin was battling alongside a group of Elite warriors, chopping down the attackers with his lightsaber. He could use the force to crush more opponents, but he was told that the force doesn't work on the Vong and that only a few force powers, such as Force lightning and the Sith method Force Net, will work. Anakin had been debating whether or not to use force lightning because his allies were nearby, but when he saw his companions slowly retreating due to the overwhelming numbers of the enemy, he used Force lighting, which destroyed nearly all of the opponents in front of them, leaving only a few in the back.

When the remaining Vong warriors saw their comrades die in such a manner, they became terrified and attempted to flee, but they were slaughtered before they could even get a chance.

Supreme Overlord Shimrra Jamaane was stressing on the bridge of the Vong Command ship because he didn't expect the enemy to be this strong because 18 years ago they were involved in a Galactic civil war and then an Empire called the Imperium took over most of the Galaxy, and the enemy tech at the time was not up to par with the Vong's biological ships and weapons, so the Supreme Overlord was not wary of the enemy. He had also anticipated that due to their size, the Imperium would be full of corruption and would be feuding amongst themselves, yet it appears that they are well-organized and formidable.

While Overlord Shimrra was thinking the door to the Bridge was forcefully opened and when he turned around he had seen a giant figure charging at him he quickly pulled out his weapon to block the attack.
