863: The Outcast of the Era

After the communication ended, Tang Xiao looked at Bangila-Ulan just now Where the hologram was projected, he smiled mockingly.

Lundili Interstellar Power Company has reached this point for a reason. They couldn't let go of their arrogance and still regarded themselves as the veteran industrial giants in the galaxy, so they took the wrong path in a series of decisions.

In fact, if you read a little bit about the history of the Galactic Republic, you will know that the three giants in the shipbuilding industry at the beginning of the Galactic Republic were Corellian Engineering Corporation, Core Galaxy Systems, and Hersch-Koschel Although the driving company, Lundilli Star Power Company, has a long history, at that time, they could not compare with the Big Three.

However, during the subsequent disintegration of Hersch-Koschel Drive Company, Lundilli played a big role and annexed many of their industries. After that, they launched the extremely classic Hammerhead-class cruiser, which shone in the Sith War.

After that, together with Kuat Power Shipyard, which also annexed the core galaxy system, they became the three new giants of the shipbuilding industry of the Galactic Republic.

But later, because of their arrogance, they were unwilling to take sides in political situations and fell behind everywhere.

Compared with the other two giants, Corellia Engineering Company is backed by the unique Corellia system, which is a system with five habitable planets, and they also own Corellia In the sub-corridor, no matter what happens in the galaxy, their status cannot be shaken.

The Quat Dynamic Shipyard has a long-term vision. It began to invest in Sheev Palpatine very early, and actively participated in cartel organizations including the Technology Alliance and the Trade Alliance. In the political and political circles The business community is very active and even radical.

At a time when the political future of the galaxy was still unclear, Kuat Power Shipyard took an extremely important step. They directly ignored the provisions of the Rusan reform and launched the Cheer-class assault landing ship that trampled every clause of the Rusan Treaty under their feet. At the same time, they also started the research and development of the Jaeger-class battlecruiser.

In contrast, Rendili Interstellar Power Company actually has no core advantages. They don't have the stable market of Corellia, nor the enterprising spirit of Kuart, and they are still clinging to the old ground.

When the galaxy is in turmoil, what is Rendili Interstellar Power Company doing? They are still holding on to the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser and changing it again and again. Even the production line of the Hammerhead-class cruiser more than 4,000 years ago has not been cancelled.

The people at Rendili believe that the design of the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser is sufficient to meet every mission of the Galactic Republic Justice Fleet, and they can continue to receive stable orders from the Republic Justice Fleet.

So they launched an improved version of the Dreadnought, reducing the crew from more than 16,000 to 2,204, and they were happy that their technological progress was enough to satisfy the Justice Fleet.

The Judiciary Fleet indeed placed a one-time order for 200 new Dreadnought-class ships to form the Blade Fleet.

However, an accident occurred during the Blade Fleet's maiden voyage, and all 200 battleships disappeared. The Republic's Judiciary Fleet believed that this was an error in the newly installed automation system of the Dreadnought-class, which caused this disaster, so it stopped all operations. of orders.

However, the political environment within the Galactic Republic continued to deteriorate, and large-scale conflicts occurred one after another. After the Battle of Naboo, orders for the Republic's judicial fleet began to be transferred to the Quat Power Dockyard.

At this time, Rendili thought that the order transfer of the Judiciary Fleet was due to the disappearance of the Blade Fleet. They spent huge sums of money to investigate the location of the Blade Fleet, just to prove that the disappearance of the Blade Fleet was not Because their automation system failed.

It was not until later, as the war was getting closer, that Lundilli suddenly realized that he quickly hired the talented designer Willix Blissex from the Kuat Power Shipyard and began the design work of the Victory-class Star Destroyer. , but it was too late.

By this time, Quat Dynamic Shipyard had already quickly occupied the military market with its Cheer-class assault landing ships, Chasseur-class battlecruisers and Aquitens-class light cruisers. And their investment in politics also achieved significant results. Sheev Palpatine became the Speaker of the Galactic Republic. He reciprocated the favor and handed all orders directly to Kuat Power Shipyard without even a hint of cover-up. It was only now that Rendili discovered with horror that he might be the one abandoned by the times.

They want to struggle, and the heritage of more than 20,000 years can indeed make them struggle for a long time. However, as the war progressed, they found that the situation did not improve at all.

Even though the design of the Victory-class Star Destroyer was completed half a year after the outbreak of the war, Bandila-Ulan tried every means and even used Tongtian's connections to directly put the design on Chancellor Palpatine's desk. , but still has no effect.

The documents of the Victory-class Star Destroyer were thrown directly into the trash can by Palpatine, without even the interest to take a look.

The orders for warships from the Great Republic Army flew into the hands of Kuat Power Shipyard like snowflakes. The industrial star ring of Kuat Planet was fully started. At any time, thousands of warships could be seen being assembled.

On the contrary, Lundili's side was deserted.

In the end, because the performance of the Victory-class Star Destroyer was indeed very superior, some orders were received from the Legion Governor, but the number was still pitifully small.

And even so, some politically very sensitive legionnaire governors were not shy about Lundilli. For example, the Governor of the 18th Army, Wilhuff Tarkin, resolutely drew a clear line with Lundilli. Even if the situation of the 18th Army was precarious, he would never use Lundilli's warships, even at any discount.

As for the current situation of Lundili Interstellar Power Company, Tang Xiao is clear about it. Whether it is the plot settings he knew before time travel, or the information obtained from various intelligence networks now, this can be confirmed. That's why he used some small tricks to pull Banji into Wu after getting the blade fleet. Lan was fished out.

However, judging from the attitude of Bangila-Ulan, it seems that they have not been forced to a dead end yet, and they still believe that they have the ability to reverse the situation, so Tang Xiao doesn't want to talk nonsense to them.

The Ulan family is indeed a super wealthy family that has lasted for more than 20,000 years, but because of this, it is difficult to convince them. After Tang Xiao understood Benjila-Ulan's attitude, he chatted casually for a few words, at least planting a seed in the other person's heart. That was enough. More things would be too much.

Lundilli will eventually betray the Galactic Republic, because they will be cornered by Palpatine.

But sadly, their betrayal was already anticipated by Palpatine. It was precisely because of their betrayal that Palpatine was able to hand over the super cake of Rendili to the hands of Quat Power Dockyard and completely feed them.

No matter what happens to the Galactic Empire in the future, even if it ends up being destroyed, Kuat Dynamic Shipyard has never turned away from the Empire. This is the reason.

This is the cause and effect that Palpatine planted ten years ago.

What Tang Xiao wants to do now is to see if he can get anything before Lundili finally goes to ruin. Rendili's 20,000-year heritage is the real force that can compete with Quart.
