What? Did you read Fleet Action?
WORNING MAJOR FLEET ACTION SPOILERS AHEAD!
The Confed was gaining an edge in the war, the Kilrathi didn't have any new carriers coming online because of the raides deep into the Cat teritory by the new escort carriers. They were also runing short on transports, because they were using most of them to construct new super carrier, and thus win the war. But it looked like Confed had at least a few months to use that advantage, and the new Kilrathi Carriers were still not finished. So Baron Jukaga proposed to the Emperor that they should propose peach to the Terrans, wait till they can finish the new carriers and than strike at Earth itself. The navy, and space forces didn't belive them, but the Confed governmet agreed and the cease fire was signed. Later a two escort carriers (Tarawa and the Normandy) flying under the Landreich flag were sent to the Hari space (another race concuerd by Kilrathi long ago) to try and find proof of the super carrier. They found it and sent a report back to Confed. Confed started mobilizing their fleet but it would take few months to get the fleet back to it's full strength. So with 5 fleet carriers (one of them didn't even have a jump drive and was just sent as a diversion to buy some time IIRC) Tolwyn was to stop them.(Tolwyn was in comand of third fleet after most of the generals and admirals including admiral Banbridge were killed in an explosion caused by a Kilrathi spy) The fleet met the Kilrahti few jumps from Earth, but than retreated back to Earth space and the final battle took place there. Big Duke One, the chief of staf after all other chiefs of stuff were killed in that exposion along with many other marines boards the new Kilrathi carriers, set up matter-antimatter mines inside and manage to destroy most of the carriers, and criple the rest. And that's how the Confed fleet pushed back the Kilrathi attack. That's the story of the False Peace.
Wow that was long.
