Spearhead
It had been an easy victory on Yavin IV. To him it seemed like the Rebels did not even want to defend the moon.
The small fleet the Rebels had sent was crushed by the bombers and the Decimator "Floodgate" was able to secure the landing of the 501st.
They overwhelmed what little resistance was left on the small rebel base and secured the moon.
And capturing the ISD "Vanquisher" had been even easier! The Grand Admiral had been aboard of one of the troop transports that brought the battalions
of the 501st into the Hangar of the battleship. After overcomming the resistance in the hangar the ship's commander had surrendered the ISD to the Empire.
Even though the rebels tried to recap the ISD while it's systems were still offline with the 501st securing it, they only send a small escort ship which
turned out be an easy pick for the imperial bombers in the system.
All in all it seemed to Proudmoore like the Rebels wanted them to take the Yavin system, showing just as much resistance to make the Empire believe they did not
hand it to them right away. Something wasn't adding up here.
He knew most of the imperial officers thought of the rebels as a small annoyance during the rebuild of the Empire, consisting only of untrained seditionist,
but he was sure there were some experienced commanders in the rebel crowd that called itself a fleet.
The Grand Admiral's adjutant came up the steps to the rooftop and walked up to him.
"Grand Admiral, the base is now secured by imperial troops and the technicians are already decoding the files in the computersystems.
The 501st has finished boarding and is ready to move back to Bastion. The Fleet can leave as soon as you give the order."
"They won't find anything in this base, the rebels just gave it up." said the Grand Admiral.
As he went for the shuttle to take him back to his flagship he was still thinking why the rebels hadn't put up more of a fight.
But there were more important things comming up. The Emperor had ordered to secure the Kuat and Bilbringi system.
And it was obvious that the Fleet and the 501st would have to fight at the very front of these battles to ensure the victory!
