Chapter 2143 The Shaking of the Technical Alliance
2144. The Shaking of the Technical Alliance
Toreso Borre, Prime Minister of Planet Rosa, and four other top leaders wanted by the Galactic Empire, directly He committed suicide and died for his country during the live broadcast, which completely ignited the flames of resistance on Planet Rosa.
In response to Order 37, in response to the despicable act of the Galactic Empire using civilians as hostages and forcing them to surrender, Torreso Borre's choice was to die for his country!
Because even though the resistance on the planet is still fierce now, when this war has just begun, everyone's enthusiasm is still very high. But as the war continues, after a few months, even half a year, or a year, how much of this enthusiasm will be left?
So at that time, when the Galactic Empire repeatedly used civilians as hostages to intimidate, there were definitely not a few people who wavered under the coercion. Not only that, if things go on like this, many people may also blame Torreso-Bore for the war on a few people.
So Torreso Borre directly eliminated the problem from its source, and he vowed to fight the Galactic Empire to the end! Therefore, he chose to commit suicide and die for his country, making Order 37 impossible to carry out.
Since all the wanted criminals are dead, what is your Galactic Empire doing by taking those civilian hostages? Who should surrender?
All resistance movements on Planet Rosa are now directed by the Rosa Resistance Committee, but who are the members of the committee? Anyone can be, but anyone can also be not.
Darth Vader did this at first. He asked the planet Rosa to hand over the people of the Rosa Resistance Committee, but soon more than a dozen people claiming to be members of the committee came to surrender. However, after they were all shot, the resistance movement on Planet Rosa was still well-organized and fierce, even filled with unforgettable hatred!
After going back and forth several times, Darth Vader also lost patience. He issued an order. Order 37 was no longer directed at a certain person, but at everyone who took up arms against the imperial army! No matter who it is, no matter how many there are! As long as there are people on this planet who resist the Galactic Empire, then Order 37...
Never stop!
An endless stream of imperial troops filed out of the transport ships and attacked every city on the planet Rosa!
“Since you have chosen death, death will come.” Darth Vader’s terrifying black armor appeared on every screen on the planet.
The imperial fleet has invaded the planet's communication network through electronic interference, making it impossible to switch channels even if it wants to. As long as you turn on the holographic video, Darth Vader's terrifying voice will be played repeatedly, a terrifying threat!
However, doing so will only make everyone on Planet Rosa realize the true nature of the Galactic Empire!
They don’t really care about Torreso Borre, or even any life on this planet! All they really care about is the wealth and resources on the planet!
This is a robbery! A robbery against the Trade Federation!
Unless you can accept the outcome of being robbed of all your property and being sold to a black mine for mining, you will have to fight to the end!
……
The core circle of the Milky Way, the planet Skako.
This is the home planet of the Skak people, and it is also the headquarters of the Technology Alliance - yes, the Technology Alliance is also a super corporate giant located in the core circle.
The Technology Alliance is a super giant that controls many scientific research companies, precision processing companies, and heavy manufacturing industries. Industrial giants such as Quat Power Shipyard are peripheral members of the Trade Alliance, but they are members of the Technology Alliance. One of the core members. It was not until after the terrorist attack in Eriadu that Quat Dynamic Shipyard withdrew from the Trade Alliance and the Technology Alliance respectively.
Not only that, at the peak of the Technology Alliance, in addition to Kuat Power Dockyard, it even included Corellian Engineering Company and Blaster Technology Industries (almost all blasters were produced by this company ), these industrial giants are also members of the technology alliance.
In other words, two of the three largest super industrial giants in the galaxy at that time were members of the Technology Alliance, which shows their extremely huge power. There is only Rendili Interstellar Power Company. They are originally a consortium of countless shipyard owners, so naturally they will not join another consortium.
At its peak, the Techno Union followed the Trade Federation's lead, gaining a seat in the Galactic Republic and beginning to invest in politics. It's just that the technical alliance has a looser organizational structure than the trade alliance. Therefore, although a large number of super industrial giants have joined, those industrial giants will not obey the instructions of the technology alliance. The two parties are more of a cooperative relationship.
Therefore, the Technology Alliance cannot obtain a political status from the Galactic Republic that is comparable to that of the Trade Federation. Even the members of the Technology Alliance in the parliament are concurrently held by members of the planet Skakko. Unlike the Trade Federation and the Interstellar Banking Association, it does not have its own independent parliamentarians.
With the separatist movement launched by Count Dooku, the political situation of the Galactic Republic is unstable. Super industrial giants such as Corellian Engineering Company, Quat Power Shipyard, and Explosive Technology Industries have withdrawn from the Technology Alliance. This has also caused The technical alliance began to decline and continued to weaken.
So, under the leadership of Grand Foreman Walter Tambor, the Techno Union decided to take a big gamble and joined the Separatism and became a member of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
Walter-Tumber also plans to follow the example of the Trade Federation, betting on both sides between the Confederation of Independent Systems and the Galactic Republic, making money on both sides, but how can they compare with the Trade Federation? A word from the Trade Alliance, the Galactic Republic can't even tax the Outer Rim Stars, what can the Technology Alliance say?
Therefore, when the Clone Wars broke out, although the Galactic Republic did not directly attack the planet Skakko, this was mainly because the defense of the planet Skakko was very strong. When the Grand Republic Army was first established, the gain outweighed the losses by a forced attack. However, the Galactic Republic still froze all the assets of the Technology Alliance in the areas it controlled, closed their factories, and ordered companies that joined the Technology Alliance to withdraw from the alliance.
So in the early days of the war, the Technology Alliance hated the Galactic Republic and contributed hugely to the war. And they were also the second force after the Dawn Planet to eliminate the entire army of the Galactic Republic - they captured the planet Rylos and destroyed the 14th Army of the Republic.
However, as the war progressed, Dawn Planet began to provide more and more technical support and industrial support to the Confederation of Independent Systems. Therefore, in addition to its insufficient size, Dawn Planet provided other services to the Confederation of Independent Systems. Services actually overlap with technology alliances.
And on the Dawn Planet, whether it is a battleship or a fighter jet, its performance far exceeds what the Technology Alliance itself can provide. In addition, since the withdrawal of Quat Dynamic Shipyard and Corellian Engineering Company, the Technology Alliance's ability to design and manufacture large capital ships has been greatly reduced.
So in the Confederate Army of Independent Systems, the advantage of the Technical Alliance is getting smaller and smaller, and many orders are given to the Dawn Planet.
This was especially true after the naval reform of the Confederation of Independent Systems. Almost half of the warship models of the new generation of Confederation of Independent Systems Navy were provided by Dawn Planet.
The Technology Alliance has not failed to make efforts. They have launched their own capital ship design - the Bulwark-class battlecruiser. However, the launch of this kind of warship was too late. Although Count Dooku also gave a large number of orders out of the idea of checking the Dawn Planet, the number of fortresses that were ultimately completed was not many.
Feeling that their status was threatened, the Technology Alliance's determination to confront the Galactic Republic began to waver. Foreman Walter Tambor began to secretly contact the Galactic Republic and began to explore the possibility of returning to the Republic.
However, the Galactic Republic at that time was no longer what it was at the beginning of the war. Naturally, there were conditions for them to accept the Technology Alliance. They asked the Technology Alliance to reveal to them the military secrets of the Confederation of Independent Systems, especially some of the battleship technology of the Dawn Planet. Walter Tambor was indecisive, worried that if he really did this, the Confederation of Independent Systems would soon fail, and the Technology Alliance would lose its value.
Therefore, under such worries about gains and losses, the Technology Alliance kept swinging back and forth. It was not until the Confederation of Independent Systems failed in the Battle of Salukami that they made up their mind to surrender to the Galactic Republic.
Such a result will naturally not be good. Can your surrender in 1946 be the same as your surrender in 1949?
Therefore, in the Galactic Empire, the Technology Alliance handed over a lot of money, factories and technology in order to survive, and has become a second-rate enterprise, and its former glory has long since ceased to exist.
The capital of the planet Skakko, a very luxurious fortress. This place used to be so splendid and full of guests. Major industrial giants with countless resources gathered together. With a nod, they could agree on the construction plan of hundreds of capital ships. With a glass of wine, they could start a project worth hundreds of billions of credits. The latest scientific research project...
But now, although this place is still so luxurious, there are no other people in the spacious living room except for a few cleaning robots.
Today, we received an unexpected visitor.
On a four-legged robot for transportation, a fat Neimoidian sat, with an angry face on his face, walking towards the middle.
"Ah... Lord Lott-Dude, a high-ranking representative of the Trade Federation. What is the business of a person like you coming to our small, low-level company?" Sitting on a tall chair The one on board was a Skako man who used protective clothing to protect his whole body - the great foreman Walter Tambor.
The living environment of the Skakos is harmful to most other races. Therefore, if they want to go to other planets, the Skako people will wear protective clothing. If guests of other races come to the living room here, the place will also enter a closed state, and then the internal environment will be adjusted to the most suitable degree.
Of course, this would make it impossible for the Skako people to survive, so even at his own home, Walter Tambor still wore protective clothing. Only in this way could he meet visitors normally.
He twisted the knob on his protective suit and adjusted the tone of his voice, which sounded very serious. "The technical alliance is over. Because of our previous friendship, I will not capture you in exchange for a bounty. Now, You'd better leave."
Lot Dude said angrily: "It's you who caused the Technology Alliance to become what it is now! You know that surrendering to the Galactic Empire can't have any good results. But you still insist on going your own way! Now you can see that the Galaxy Empire is a group of bandits. They are unable to support the arms race with the Dawn Principality, and they can only attack the Trade Federation! "
"What does it have to do with me that your trade alliance has been robbed?" Walter Tambor said coldly.
"Do you think Palpatine won't rob you? No! He will only do it more decisively! After the Trade Federation, you will be next! The Skakos!" Lot-Du De pointed at Walter Tambor's nose and said, "The Galactic Empire can only accommodate humans. Apart from humans, there will be no room for any other race to survive! Not to mention that you have ever been on the side of the Separatists!"
"We have nothing to lose." Walter Tambor replied frustratedly.
"Then get back what you lost!" Lott-Dude, as a parliamentary representative, is very eloquent. "Even if you still fail in the end, you have nothing to lose, right? ?”
Walter Tambor fell silent and did not speak.
Lot Dude raised his voice and said loudly: "The Trade Alliance cannot support itself for too long! We must need more assistance! Otherwise, we can only support it for half a year at most! After half a year, you will ask for it "Blessed!"
"...Where is Tang Xiao's attitude?" Walter Tambor's voice became much softer.
"The Principality of Dawn cannot directly send fleet reinforcements, but they will provide us with all other help." Lott-Dude said.
"Hmph! All help except the fleet? What else? Waving the flag and shouting?" Walter Tambor snorted coldly.
Lot Dude's expression darkened, "Of course I won't tell you the details. But I will tell you that it is enough support for us to win in the end."
Again There was a moment of silence...
After a long time, Walter Tambor said again: "Technology Alliance has reached this point. What we need to worry about is not just Technology Alliance. In our Behind me are the 230 billion people of Skako [Note 1]. Compared with others, I understand better the consequences of resisting the Galactic Empire. I will not gamble with you with the lives of 230 billion people. "
Lot-Dude said: "I will not ask you to take sides publicly. I just come to you to ask for something."
"What?" Walter Tambor asked.
"Scorpion Annihilator robots, and super tanks."

[Note 1: The population of the planet Skako is set to be between 100B~500B , that is, 100 billion to 500 billion. This fluctuation is too big. Moreover, the environment of the planet Skako does not support the floating population of other races, so I will simply take an intermediate value. 】
