Chapter 346 The Battle of Naboo (1)
344. The Battle of Naboo (1)
Cato Neimoidia (CatoNeimoidia), the most powerful Neimoidia people One of the ancient colonies and the colony closest to their home planet, Neimoidia.
Thousands of years of development, Cato-Neimoidia has always existed as a secret fortress of the Neimoidians. Only the most powerful people are qualified to live on this planet.
In Zarra, the capital of the planet Cato Neimoidia, the Governor of the Trade Federation Newt Gunray and his most trusted confidant Rune Harkou and others are holding a final secret meeting. .
In the holographic projection in front of them, a man covered by a black cloak was standing there with a slightly hunched body, a hook-like nose, a thin chin, and a twisted smile. He was the Sith Lord Darth. -Sidious!
"The time has come! It's time to show our power on the planet Naboo, and then give the Galactic Republic a fatal blow! Hehehehe..." Sidious smiled sinisterly.
Run Harkou said timidly: "But...but this is no better than before. If we really want to send troops to attack the planet Naboo, we will not be able to tolerate it if it overstimulates the Galactic Republic. Just walk away."
"Ignorant and stupid cowards! I have laid the groundwork for you. If I hadn't intervened in the dispute in the Dovala mining area, you would still be in the high position of this trade alliance. Now is the best time. If you don't take this last step, you will always be just an ordinary company under the Republic!" Sidious snorted.
“But we do have to consider the reaction of the Republic, and even the reaction of the Jedi Order. This time, unlike the previous one where the Enterprise Alliance was on the planet Malastar, you want us to send out ground troops to occupy it. Planet Naboo!" Newt Gunray was unsure.
"The Republic, Fenis-Valorum, and the Jedi Order have all been restrained by me through various means! The Battle of Malastar Fjord and the terrorist attack on the Eriadu Business Summit have made it impossible for the Justice Fleet to ever return Support Finis Valorum, and after the Jedi Order experienced heavy losses in the Inchori rebellion, they would not have the guts to continue to interfere in such a thing! Even if Ki-Adi Mundy The Master's daughter was captured and killed, did you see the Jedi Order move?" Sidious said.
Newt Gunray breathed a sigh of relief and said cautiously: "Then... let's... move, do it?"
"Do it! Now! On the planet Naboo The new queen is just a little girl! She will just hide at home and cry! If we don't do it now, how long will it take to block the trade routes in the middle of the galaxy?" Sidious suddenly! With a roar, the sound of powerful force blew things on the conference table flying everywhere, and Newt Gunray and others were also knocked over.
"Idiot!" Sidious cursed and cut off the communication directly.
Run Harkor got up from the ground, straightened his hat, ran over to help Newt Gunray up, and said with lingering fear: "Lord Gunray, is this the Sith Lord? Lord? That’s terrible! Do we really want to cooperate with such a terrible person?”
Newt Gunray slapped Rune Harkor's hand away, got up, and gritted his teeth and said: "We'd better not anger this lord, and you must understand that it's because of him that we can be in this position. Leader of the Trade Alliance. If he is dissatisfied with us... Since he can use the Eriadu Business Summit to kill the previous governor and put us in power, he can let such a thing happen again!"
"Then! How about we not send ground troops, but just send fleets to block it?" Rune Harko asked tremblingly. "Assemble the fleet!! Fill LH-3210 with robots!!" Persimmon pinched softly. Newt Gunray yelled at Harko, and then said to himself as if to comfort himself. Said: "Occupy the planet Naboo, then all the plasma mines on the planet will be mine! We can also control the trade routes around the planet Naboo! Huh! Yes! That's it!"
He punched the table, turned on the communicator and said fiercely: "All fleets, according to the scheduled plan, will set off after 24 standard hours!!"
...
The Central Ring of the Milky Way, the planet Naboo, outer space.
Without any warning, the white light kept flashing, and a large number of large spaceships jumped out of hyperspace and suddenly appeared in the universe!
These spaceships are very huge, and they are all of the same model - the circular LH-3210 large cargo ship!
This kind of cargo ship is in the shape of a ring 3170 meters long and 3009 meters wide, with a huge spherical hull in the center with a diameter of 1029 meters.
But what is frightening is that some of them were originally just cargo ships, but now they have a large number of turrets installed on them, protecting themselves like hedgehogs. And on the spherical hull in the middle, a high-power signal transmission tower is installed for combat use.
Among the 60 LH-3210 cargo ships, only about 10 are armed models equipped with turrets and signal transmission towers. These armed cargo ships are hidden in the fleet, creating the illusion that only cargo ships are coming.
These cargo ships immediately surrounded the entire planet along the equator of the Naboo planet in batches. Then, from the ring-shaped hull around the cargo ships, densely packed vulture robot fighters flew out like a swarm, tens of thousands of them. ! !
The terrifying formation made all the merchant fleets entering and exiting the planet Naboo remain silent and did not dare to move. Although it seems that the cargo ships coming over are all cargo ships, the huge hulls of these cargo ships bring a great sense of oppression, coupled with the threat of tens of thousands of Vulture robot fighters, no one thinks they have the ability to stop this terrifying fleet. !
Then, visiting the battlefield in person, the Trade Federation Governor Newt Gunray, who was in the flagship, connected to the public channel and broadcast to all surrounding ships: "Notify all ships traveling to and from the planet Naboo, because the planet Naboo As well as protesting against the Galactic Republic's illegal taxation of the free trade zone, the planet Naboo has now been blocked by our trade alliance. I hope everyone understands and leaves in time."
