The Lady of Leeds

[Lord Helmchen]

821 AS. Tau 31 System, Near Hollman Outpost

The LNS-Longshot and her Scoutgroupe were in an Ambush Position they had got some Information about a Supply Convoy that was just Lightly Defended by some Gunboats and a Fighter Wing. During the Last year, they had a Couple of Daring Raids and Intelligence Gathering Operations and were Able to Inflict some Damage to the Gallic Warmachine. today they hat Targeted a Fuel Convoy that should Resupply a Battlegroup near Leeds. Right behind the Leeds Gate would be Reinforcements for the Convoy. the Plan was to Catch the Convoy between Hollmann and the Gate, Cut the Communications, and then to Destroy the Supplies and the Ships. Camile had also Organized a Litle Contingent of her Families Personal Guard that Supported them and Increased the Numbers on their Side. Camile smiled as she entered the Bridge and walked over to the Tactical Table and Saluted.

Sir everything is Ready, all expected ships are here. altogether we have our Siegecruiser and 10 Fighters, 4 Bombers, and 2 Old Churchill Class Corvettes of the Summers Guards. the Expected Enemy Force should have one Triumph Destroyer, and 1 Perilous Gunboat with an Unknown Number of Fighters but I would expect not more than 10 of them. Our Main target is the 10 Pachyderme Transport Ships in the Convoy. they carry Fuel, Ammunition, Spareparts, and Weapons for the Fleets in Leeds. the Intelligence Service assumes that the Convoy is a Preparation for another Offensive, and its Destruction could Slow down the Gallic Warmachine. We have Allowance from High Comand to Treat the Transports as Regular Combat Targets.

As Camile Ended her Reports she got a Nodd from Beny. the Capitan of the Longshot and Camile had become Good Friends in the Last Years and he had Learned that the Smal Bretonain Lady was a Good Addition to his Crew, and more than one time had her Knowledge and Ideas Safed his Ship. Beny knew that this Was a Suicide Mission and that one Mistake could Lead to the Death of Everyone under his command. but he also knew that every Intel they Gathered and every Enemy they Destroyed helped the War effort. Beny Points at the Tactical Table and Drinks from his Coffemug.

Good Work Lady Summers, we will await them halfway between Holman and the Gate. If all went to plan then they should be having Massive Problems from the EMP Bombs we have Planted there. First, we Detonate a Conventional Bomb to Disrupt the Tradelane and then the EMPs. our Main Forces will wait outside of the Blast Radius and then Move in Fast and Destroy any Resistance that maybe have Survived before we Destroy the Transports. The Longshoot will take Care of the Triumph the Bombers and the Gunboats will take Care of the Rest. any Questions? no good then at your Stations this will be a Big Blow for the Gallic if we are Successful.

Camile Moved over to her Station and in the Next Hours they Waited for the Enemy, the Atmosphere was Tense but everyone was a Professional and Stayed at their Post. all of them Knew how Dangerous their Mission Was and that it would Delay the War at best for only some Days, but Camile knew that one or two days Delay at the Right time could Decide a Battle.
