Chapter 512 The first shot of the civil war

510. The first shot of the civil war

Sheev Palpatine finally got what he wanted, he successfully bypassed the "Military Creation Act" 's vote.

He secretly controlled Count Dooku and asked him to order Jango Fett to assassinate Padmé Amidala. Although he failed, he also put Senator Amidala into a coma.

Then, he took advantage of Jar Jar Binks' kindness and dedication to serving the Galactic Republic, constantly hinting that only by obtaining emergency ruling powers could he be able to protect the Republic, and constantly hinted that if Par If Deme Amidala were here, he would definitely make this decision.

Jar Jar Binks finally stood up bravely and proposed a motion that no one in the entire parliament of tens of thousands of members dared to propose - granting Sheev Palpatine emergency ruling powers.

Although the final trend of history proved that his decision was wrong, in that period when everyone was for themselves and everyone was a coward, Jar Jar Binks was the bravest one.

Although his decision ultimately ruined the final national destiny of the Galactic Republic, at this time, allowing the Galactic Republic to establish an army as soon as possible to fight the separatist offensive also really allowed those who were still loyal to The outer planets of the Galactic Republic were spared the pain of war.

Sheev Palpatine won, and he gained supreme power over the entire Galactic Republic. The emergency ruling power allows him to have one vote to veto and one vote to pass any bill, and he can even pass an directive directly without going through parliament through an executive order.

Although this emergency ruling power is temporary, he has publicly promised that he will return this power to the parliament, but who knows what will happen in the future?

After he ordered the establishment of the Grand Army of the Republic, the impatient industrial giants who had been waiting impatiently immediately went into action with all their strength. The warships that had already begun preliminary construction were dragged into the interstellar shipyard and flew quickly under the control of countless engineering robots. Complete outfitting.

Jaeger-class battlecruisers, Aquitens-class light cruisers, broadside-class guided missile cruisers and other new warships have entered the production line and begun production.

Many war machines that had already been built were delivered to the Grand Republic Army for use, which allowed this army to be armed to the teeth in a short period of time.

At the same time, the reform of military institutions has also begun. Groups of young and talented officers have been promoted, and those officers who were full of brains and fat bodies were eliminated.

This series of efficient measures shows that Sheev Palpatine is well prepared for the establishment of the army. But those congressmen didn't think so. They just felt that Speaker Palpatine had indeed lived up to their trust, and that the threat of separatism was within easy reach.

The Republic Strategic Command (Republic Strategic Command), which had been dormant for a long time, began to operate rapidly again. The ubiquitous Republic agents and intelligence personnel were activated and began to report pieces of information to the Republic Intelligence Department and handed them over to the Strategic Command for decision-making.

After Master Yoda arrived on the planet Kamino, the Kaminoans had prepared an army of 200,000 clones that had completed training in advance. The fully armed clone troopers wearing white polymer alloy armor and full-coverage helmets have boarded the 12 Cheer-class assault landing ships docked in the giant space port in batches, ready for battle at any time.

The Jedi Order also made deployments. Since this clone army was created by the former Jedi Master Sever Dias, the Jedi Order also decided to continue this project. Master Shaak-Ti, one of the members of the Supreme Council, stayed on the planet Kamino to supervise the production of the clone army and monitor the actions of the Kaminoans at any time to prevent them from doing anything nefarious.

Afterwards, the Republic Strategic Command took over the command of the 200,000 clone troops, and Zilkin Colonel Meebur Gascon accompanied the fleet as a tactical advisor.

This fleet has a total of 20 Cheer-class assault landing ships, 12 of which are fully loaded with clone troops, and the remaining 8 serve as escorts.

Each of the 752-meter-long and 460-meter-wide Cheer-class assault landing ships can carry 16,000 clone troopers and the weapons and supplies they need, including 320 suspended combat motorcycles, 80 LAAT gunships, 48 ​​AT-TE walkers and 36 SPHA self-propelled guns.

......

Earlier, Master Windu had led the Jedi Order to the planet Geonosis.

After receiving the message forwarded by Padmé Amidala, unlike those congressmen who were only thinking about political goals, Master Windu was very keenly aware of the war at the first time - war It's imminent!

Therefore, he was very decisive and brought all the Jedi Knights he could bring with him, a total of 212 people. The Jedi Order has begun to decline, but its total number is about 10,000, but most of them are scattered throughout the galaxy to perform tasks. After excluding those apprentices who have not completed their training, he took 212 Jedi there this time. It can be said that they were mobilized in full force.

If Count Dooku is on the planet Geonosis at this time, then capturing him is the best outcome. In this way, a civil war sweeping the entire galaxy may be avoided.

During the journey, Master Windu also received a second piece of information from Obi-Wan Kenobi, confirming the location of Count Dooku, which made Master Windu even more determined.

More than 200 star fighters, driven by the hyperspace ring, made several hyperspace jumps and headed straight for the planet Geonosis!

A dense white light flashed, and more than 200 star fighters left hyperspace and arrived at their destination. What greeted them was intense artillery fire!

Because of the previous commotion between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, the planet Geonosis was already on the highest alert, and the arrival of the Jedi was immediately discovered.

The five Geonosian cruisers immediately turned around and flew in the direction of these star fighters. A large number of Nantex-type territorial defense fighters were densely parked in the bellies of these cruisers. This kind of cruiser does not have a hangar platform. The fighter jet is directly connected to the cruiser at the tail and hangs on it. It looks like the belly of the cruiser is covered with dense bean sprouts.

The Geonosian pilot quickly entered the fighter from the rear, started the engine, broke away from the cruiser, and headed straight for the Jedi fighter! More than 1,700 fighter jets took off in this wave!

After releasing all the fighters, the Geonosis cruiser began to adjust its posture and enter the shooting angle. Several twin heavy turbolaser cannons installed on both sides aimed at the target...

Fire! !

Oh~~~~~! ! The thick red blaster beam pierced the dark universe and started the first civil war in the galaxy, the first shot of the Clone War! !
