Chapter 1515 Partition
1515, Partition
Lynch-Hauser was so shocked by Admiral Kourney’s words that he broke into a cold sweat. He never expected that the Admiral would have the courage to do so. So big, he actually wants to use the territory of the Galactic Republic to trade with the Trade Federation!
You must know that even now, the Trade Federation still has representatives in the Galactic Republic Parliament, but they have been completely classified as a separatist force. The main reason why the representative seats have not been removed until now is that the Trade Federation still has a large number of industries and businesses within the jurisdiction of the Galactic Republic.
In this case, Admiral Kourney's plan is to make a deal with the Trade Alliance on the surface, but in fact it is no different from giving their resource center directly to the enemy country.
"This is the only way for us to survive this disaster!" Kourney said loudly, "Do you naively think that the wealth of the two of us can impress the first and second leaders of the Trade Federation? Wake up! The matter is here. At this step, all we want is to protect ourselves!"
Lynch-Hauser's face was uncertain, and after a long time he said: "Okay, we can try to talk to Lot-Du. Please contact Germany, and don't contact Newt Gunray... That guy will no longer appear in the Republic. He is a complete separatist. On the contrary, it is Lot Dude, at least he has always been there. Staying in the parliament, there is still some possibility of communication."
"You come to pull the strings, and then the two of us will talk to him together," Admiral Kourney said, "As long as it can be avoided. If a large-scale fleet battle breaks out in the Ennaco system, then the base of the Trade Alliance will not be too damaged, and a mining planet will be obtained for free. I believe that a businessman like him will definitely make the most appropriate choice. ”
Lynch Hauser nodded gloomily.

At this time, Tang Xiao was on the Laxus subplanet, the capital of the Federation of Independent Systems.
He was meeting with Count Dooku to discuss the next combat policy and plan of the Confederation of Independent Systems. In fact, the declaration they had issued unanimously before to support the Jedi Order was also a joint action after discussion.
"...So I do think that there are definitely not a few Jedi who were able to escape from Order 66 and fell to the dark side in such a betrayal." Count Dooku touched his white beard on his chin. , said, "There is no doubt that these people will be our help."
Tang Xiao nodded and said: "But we must also be on guard. There may be some very strong and determined beings among them. , after such training, they will only become stronger, and their light will not be shaken."
"I agree with your previous view, Lord Death Angel - the light side is also possible. They are our allies, and our only enemy is actually just the Jedi Order," Count Dooku said with satisfaction.
"Jedi warriors who have fallen to the dark side and succumbed to their own emotions and desires will choose the powerful Galactic Republic instead of us. But now it seems that Palpatine is obviously very concerned about our step. Annoyed, even if he lets the Republic army attack again, under the current circumstances, their attack intensity will obviously be reduced a lot. We can seize the time and continue to reduce the Republic's military strength," Tang Xiao said.
“Actually, I am now more inclined to believe that Palpatine’s current anger is just a pretense and a political show.” Count Dooku said, “If you want to take advantage of someone like him, It is simply impossible to get all the benefits. In fact, what we can do now is to each get what he wants - he gets the trump card he wants, and we get some escaped Jedi knights." Tang Xiao nodded, with a serious look on his face. . In fact, it was within his expectation that such a situation would occur. Because Order 66 was launched nearly a year in advance, and it happened to be at the stage when the Kamino clone troopers were eliminated by genetic weapons and the Sparti clone troopers were just beginning to be put into use.
In fact, he believed that if the Sparti clone troopers had not yet committed, then Palpatine would definitely choose to continue to hold back for a while, waiting for the time to be more mature before taking action in one fell swoop. Order 66.
Even so, if Order 66 is launched at this time, the effect will be far worse than when it was in the original plot.
On the one hand, because the Sparti clone soldiers are quick-made, their combat capabilities are far inferior to those of the Kamino clones, and they pose a much smaller threat to the Jedi. On the other hand, after all, they have just begun to deploy. Compared with the time when Order 66 was launched in the original plot, the Spady clones have not yet become the mainstay of the army, and are launching a comprehensive counterattack in multiple directions. Nowadays, the suddenness of attacks has become much less severe.
So according to Tang Xiao's current estimate, at least one-third of the Jedi survived Order 66. Compared with the result of the original plot where he was almost killed to extinction, it is already countless times better.
And as he said to Count Dooku before, their real and unrelenting enemy is actually the Jedi Order, not the Jedi Knights. After the destruction of the Jedi Order, the hostility towards him and Count Dooku will be much reduced by those Jedi who have lost their position.
At least in this matter, Darth Sidious sucked in a wave of hatred.
With this foundation, after the destruction of the Jedi Order, he can also look forward to the Jedi who escaped and joined the fourth civilization. And he has also arranged for intelligence agencies in various places to be ready to cooperate with the Jedi Knights to escape from the jurisdiction of the Galactic Republic at any time.
However, even if the Fourth Civilization has an open Force House, the Holy Spirit Academy and the Holy Spirit Sect, Tang Xiao also understands that his attraction to Jedi Knights is still far less than that of Count Dooku. After all, he was once a Jedi Knight. The status of the elders of the regiment in the hearts of the Jedi is far beyond what the Fourth Civilization and his fallen angels can compare with.
"By the way, having said that, Lord Death Angel. I am still very interested in the Book of Sith in your hand. Is this book the inheritance of the Sith?" Count Dooku suddenly asked. .
“The Book of Sith itself has no power, but it is the ritual and symbol of the way of the Sith. Being recognized by the Book of Sith will not directly make people stronger, but there is no doubt that, The connection with the way of the Sith will become even closer." Tang Xiao glanced at him and asked, "But now, you probably don't have much interest in becoming a Sith Lord, Count Dooku."
