Chapter 1359: Political turmoil in Mandalore
1359. Political turmoil in Mandalore
At the same time as the referendum on the planet Mandalore began, Count Dooku connected to Tang Xiao's communication.
He looked solemn on the other end of the communication. It was obvious that Count Dooku, who had been in the political arena for a long time and was scheming, could not have imagined that this matter was a trap from beginning to end.
Similarly, Tang Xiao's face was also very ugly.
Even though neither Count Dooku nor Tang Xiao knew what was happening on the planet Mandalore, it did not prevent them from instantly understanding the huge conspiracy hidden behind this drastic change on the planet Mandalore.
On the surface, the planet Mandalore wanted to join the Confederation of Independent Systems in a referendum, but in fact, they did not notify the Confederacy in advance at all, and the location of the planet Mandalore was beyond the reach of the Confederation of Independent Systems. It is impossible for any fleet to pass by.
What's more, even if they can really send a fleet there, can they?
The current situation in the galaxy, countless races and countless planets in the entire galaxy are watching the warring parties. Maybe they are joining one party now due to certain reasons and interests, but it does not mean that they will not join the other party when the conditions are right.
So, both sides actually want to lose face.
To put it bluntly, it means not only fighting, but also constantly performing political shows, and at the same time constantly discrediting the other side.
Therefore, this sudden referendum on the planet Mandalore, although it claims to join the Confederation of Independent Systems, is actually of no use to the Confederation, and it has all negative effects!
First, the planet Mandalore is the leader of the Neutral Alliance, and there are more than 1,500 star systems following them to become neutral. This is a huge force, and even the Galactic Republic does not dare to touch them easily. Because if these galaxies are disturbed and they cause trouble, it will definitely lead to a terrible political accident.
Once again, during the Galactic Republic, the Republic was reasonable. What's the point? That is the principle of parliament, the principle of democracy. Perhaps in essence, the most powerful and wealthy planet still has the greatest say, but even they need to take into account the ideas of those planets without money and power. Of course, the premise is that it does not affect their core interests, but these poor planets generally cannot encounter this, so only those rich and powerful planets will play this democratic game with them.
So, once 1,500 neutral galaxies cause trouble in the Galactic Republic's parliament, it is possible to bring down Speaker Sheev Palpatine.
Therefore, during the Galactic Republic, the correct rules of the game should be - first, I respect the position of you neutral planets, and then on this basis, I will do whatever I want to you. For example, if you secretly manipulate your transportation, trade, etc., to make you and Zhongli feel uncomfortable, that's right.
Look at now. The planet Mandalore suddenly announced that it would hold a referendum to leave the Galactic Republic and join the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Then the result of this matter will inevitably lead to war - whether it is necessary to declare war on the Galactic Republic after joining the Confederacy, or the Galactic Republic takes the initiative to attack.
In this case, it is impossible for you, the Federation of Independent Systems, to say that you are not doing any tricks behind the scenes! So the thing became, you, the Federation of Independent Systems, ran over to tease other neutral systems, trying to drag them into the quagmire of war!
This is great fun. Once this is done, the political image of the Confederation of Independent Systems will definitely plummet, and even some fence-sitters or unsteady galaxies will immediately go to the Galactic Republic.
Second, if the referendum on joining the Mandalorian planet is successful, then they declare to join the Confederation of Independent Systems. Okay, what about the Confederacy of Independent Systems? People are throwing themselves into their arms. Don’t you express your gratitude? The Galactic Republic's fleet is definitely on its way, but what about your Confederacy's reinforcements? If you don't give reinforcements, what will others think? I join you, but you watch me die? It doesn’t make sense!
But here’s the problem, how do you send reinforcements? There's no way we can send him there!
But others have to say, if you can't send reinforcements, why are you going to tease them? Make someone horny and horny, only to find out that you don't have this ability when you take off your pants as soon as you enter the hotel? So Count Dooku chatted with Tang Xiao, mainly asking Tang Xiao if he knew what happened on the planet Mandalore. Count Dooku always felt that if there was any big move in this galaxy that he did not do, then it must have been done by Tang Xiao.
This has a lot of history. Anyway, it has happened several times before, and every time it was the Dawn Planet.
But this time, Tang Xiao was really unjust. He himself was confused and had no idea what happened on the planet Mandalore. And he would not tell Count Dooku that although he did not know what happened on Mandalore, he was sure that Darth Tenebrous did it.
Now, it was best not to let Count Dooku know about the existence of Darth Tenebrous. In other words, Count Dooku could know, but Tang Xiao could not tell him.
So Tang Xiao told Count Dooku in a very 'Force' style tone that he felt that there was another darkness awakening behind the planet Mandalore, and the planet Mandalore might be just the beginning. , we must be wary of that direction.
And he told Count Dooku that he had sent Jango Fett and several other capable men to the planet Mandalore, asking them to stop anything happening on the planet no matter what. matter. But so far, there is still no news coming back from there.
Count Dooku closed the communication and walked away suspiciously.
Soon, the Confederacy of Independent Systems issued a public statement, stating that the Confederacy did not know about and was unwilling to see the referendum on the planet Mandalore. The Confederation of Independent Systems absolutely respects and supports the neutral stance of the planet Mandalore and the Alliance of Neutral Systems, and will never engage in any behavior that violates the laws of neutrality against the Neutral Systems.
Count Dooku also gave a speech in person. He called on the Grand Duke of Mandalore, Satine Kryze, to stay rational in this situation, stop the referendum, continue his neutral position, and let the Neutral Galaxy Alliance become the center of this war-torn world. The last piece of pure land in the galaxy.
This was very beautifully said, and it gave a strong thumbs up to the Neutrals Alliance.
Then he pointed the finger at the Galactic Republic and poured dirty water directly on the face of the Galactic Republic, saying that the referendum was actually the result of the Galactic Republic, and that it actually wanted to occupy Manda by force. Planet Luo creates an excuse.
He also said that whose fleet arrives on the planet Mandalore first now will be the mastermind behind this referendum!
And this sentence is extremely powerful and heart-wrenching, which fully reflects the political methods and political vision of Count Dooku, an old political fox.
He went to discuss with Tang Xiao, not to discuss countermeasures, but just to understand the situation and determine what happened on the Mandalorian planet.
In fact, in terms of politics, Tang Xiao is still far less sophisticated than Count Dooku.
As for the Galactic Republic, they will never stop. The main fleet of the Second System Army is already on its way, and it will never stop!
