Chapter 958 Betrayal

957, Betrayal

Hearing Barriss-Ophen's slightly innocent question, the two actors looked at each other and said rather helplessly: " This is a matter for their big shots... We don’t understand.”

They are also all-rounded people like human beings, so naturally they dare not distinguish on this matter in this situation.

Obi-Wan Kenobi also exchanged a look with Luminara Anduri, and their expressions were a little helpless. The situation of the Malastar planet was actually fully explained in the conflict that broke out due to the blockade of the Malastar planet more than ten years ago and the Battle of the Malastar Fjord.

Although the planet produces high-quality gas fuel and can also produce Podracing engines, in fact this planet only exists as a vassal of the Corporate Alliance. The corporate alliance has controlled almost all resource extraction and industrial production on the planet, reducing the Malastar planet to just a resource production place and product processing plant, with no independent industrial system of its own. Without the corporate alliance, even It is difficult to be self-sufficient.

Coupled with the struggle between the Gran and the Dagur on the planet, the situation on the planet becomes increasingly difficult.

However, the behavior of the Galactic Republic is extremely chilling. They sidelined the struggle between the Gran and the Dagur, and everything was biased in favor of the Gran. It is because the Gran people have greater political influence. In such a situation, it is easier to solve the problem by siding with the Gran people, at least on the surface.

This is not the first time that the Galactic Republic has done this. During the war between the Kali and the Yamrii, the Republic also did this.

It takes a lot of energy to fight against the strong, but it is much more convenient to bully the weak together with the strong, and it can be done in a few days.

The same was true in the subsequent Battle of Malastal Fjord. The Enterprise Alliance blocked the planet. Although the Republic sent troops to intervene, in the end, it still treated the symptoms rather than the root cause and suppressed the matter from the surface. It was Malas who was injured. Planet Tar.

Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luminara Anduli are helpless here. There are too many planets that have fallen into the arms of the Separatists for this reason, even if they are standing next to them From their perspective, they can also realize that many things can actually be avoided, but after all, their position is here, and there is nothing they can do.

The only thing we can hope for is to first preserve the existence of the Galactic Republic, stop this civil war, and then hope that those politicians can learn from the painful lessons brought by this civil war and reform the politics of the Republic. .

To be honest, they are not sure how likely it is to do so.

"Who is the commander of the Separatists? Where are they?" Obi-Wan Kenobi's tone softened.

"Their commander is called Xiao Guanghua... Sometimes you can see a very scary burly man with a stuffed toy on his waist, but I don't know the name... There is another one who looks like he is holding a shield. The silly guy’s name is Shi Aimin,” the Gran actor answered honestly.

The Dage actor also said: "But we don't know where their specific location is. Every time they take the initiative to come to us... Sir, we are just acting, they don't care about military matters. Maybe what we know...even the troops under our command are...also..."

"What is it too?" Luminara asked.

“There are also many pro-Republic factions within the planet... In fact, most of the troops sent to the battlefield were the troops in the hands of these factions... For example, in the battle we had in the business district the day before yesterday, our side The troops are all from Tataco State, and the representatives of this state are pro-republic...Then this army was completely annihilated by you the day before yesterday, and yesterday the representative of Tataco State announced his resignation..." The Dag people said. "These bastards!" Obi-Wan Kenobi said with indignation.

"Is it equivalent to us personally wiping out the factions close to the Republic on the planet Marastal one by one? The ones that still exist on this planet and have strong strength are all separatist factions?" Luminara-Ann Derry's face looked very ugly.

"Yes...For example, the troops in places like Modata Industrial Continent and Burning Energy Continent have not gone into battle." The Dage replied.

Obi-Wan Kenobi took a deep breath and said: "I must report the situation here to the Jedi Temple. The current war situation is very complicated, and the hidden strength of the Separatism may be stronger than we imagined. , even if we come with reinforcements, we may not be our opponents.”

“Ainle-Tim, the parliamentarian representative of Malastar Planet, undoubtedly played an important role in this matter, and I immediately said so. Inform the council and arrest him first." Luminara Anduli nodded and picked up the communicator.

……

The capital of the Galactic Republic, Coruscant.

The Galactic Parliament is as noisy as ever. Thousands of members are arguing over the next military investment and the direction of counterattack. The fierce quarrel conceals the fact that one person is missing from the Parliament.

In a hotel on the 10th floor of Coruscant, more than a dozen heavily armed and ferocious Grant bodyguards were escorting a Grant man in gorgeous clothes to quietly leave through the back door. These bodyguards were all around him. They are all big-bodied and round-waisted, and they are all elite warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles among the Gran people.

The person they were protecting was surprisingly the parliamentary representative of the Malastar planet, Ainle-Tim.

As the leader of the ring faction members who once had a strong influence in the Galactic Parliament, Ainle-Tim has a very high reputation in the parliament. After the former Speaker Finis Valorum finally stepped down, He also once became the most powerful contender to be the next Speaker.

However, during the final election, another very prestigious leader of the Ring faction, Representative Orn Free-Tower of the planet Ryloth, suddenly rebelled, making the entire election a disaster, and ultimately led to Schiff- Palpatine is elected Speaker.

This incident also led to the complete collapse of the Ring Faction. Although later with the help of Francis Underwood, the parliamentary representative of the Dawn Planet, the New Ring Faction was once established, but with the outbreak of the war , many of the planets of the New Ring faction members have joined the Confederation of Independent Systems, and the New Ring faction has ceased to exist.

But Ainle-Tim has always stayed in the Galactic Republic Parliament, because the planet Marastal did not join the Confederation of Independent Systems at the time, and their initial idea was to remain neutral and not let this war happen. affect yourself.

However, as the war progressed, the Granite’s home planet, the Golden Rock Planet, also announced its participation in the war, which greatly affected Ainle-Tim’s decision. At this time, it had become Francis Underwood, Prime Minister of the Fourth Civilization, came to visit secretly, and Ainle-Tim finally made up his mind to join the Confederation of Independent Systems!
