Chapter 2226 Head-to-head confrontation
2227. Head-to-head confrontation
Looking at the paper document in his hand, although it is only a few flimsy pages, in the hands of Newt Gunlay, it seems to be more powerful than The mountain is even heavier.
Because once he agrees and signs this document, the days of the Trade Alliance as an independent commercial entity will be completely history.
"Thorn Hill! Interstellar Banking Association! Where are they?" Newt Gunray suddenly raised his head and asked.
"As a banking institution, I will give them greater independence. But at the same time, they will gradually be included in state ownership. This is an overall framework that cannot be changed." Tang Xiao said lightly.
“Are you trying to take advantage of the situation?” Newt Gunray murmured, not sure if he was talking to Tang Xiao or to himself.
“On the contrary, if it weren’t for the fact that your resistance actions on Planet Rosa, Planet Vulture, and those several wealth planets have shown sufficient value, you wouldn’t even be able to see this document. " Tang Xiao said, "Perhaps in that case, it can be described as taking advantage of the situation. "
"And if I sign this document, then the Trade Alliance will be completely defeated by the Principality of Dawn. Bound, we must use all our strength to support the war against the Galactic Empire," Newt Gunray said.
"I will risk everything, including my life, to ensure that this goal is achieved." Tang Xiao stood up, walked to Newt Gunray, reached out and typed on the document "I will risk everything, even death cannot stop my determination to destroy the Galactic Empire. With or without the Trade Federation, I will fight tooth and nail, you know what I mean..."
Newt Gunray's body trembled. He knew the implication of Tang Xiao's words: since Tang Xiao would risk his life to fight Darth Sidious to the end, then if he chose not to support him at this time, he would naturally do the same. Exploiting life to do everything that can enhance your strength.
Including but not limited to ...
Turn it out and eat all the trading alliances!
"I..." Newt Gunlay wanted to say and think about it again. Just like his reaction every time he faced a major decision in the past, he did not have the courage to make a decision on the spot.
But when he raised his head to look at Tang Xiao's pair of emotional fluctuations and cold eyes, the word ‘considering’ did not say that he could not say.
Finally, he sighed in resignation and signed his name on the document with trembling hands.
……
12BBY, October 24th.
The Trade Alliance publicly announced that it would transfer the company's headquarters to the planet Mequito, and at the same time accept the state control of the Principality of Dawn. The state-owned shareholding ratio reached 51%, and it was completely nationalized.
At the same time, the Principality of Dawn also directly announced that it respects all corporate interests of the Trade Alliance, respects all wealth sovereignty preserved in the wealth world, and respects the commercial power of all customer worlds of the Trade Alliance.
This declaration is equivalent to pulling the trigger on the fire!
Because the wealth world of the Trade Alliance preserves not only the wealth of the Trade Alliance itself, but also the wealth of many other wealthy nobles in the core circle of the galaxy.
The meaning of the Wealth World is not just as simple as preserving wealth, but also a huge health planet, providing a place of unimaginable luxury and comfort for every rich man who has huge financial transactions with the Trade Alliance. For recreation.
The Principality of Dawn declares that it respects the sovereignty of wealth in the wealth world, which is equivalent to recognizing that these preserved wealth are valid and that these wealth belong to the original owner and cannot be plundered by anyone.
In this way, it will naturally be a head-on confrontation with the Galactic Empire! The Galactic Empire immediately responded tit for tat, stating that its military operations would never touch any property stored on the wealth planet. All their actions were aimed at the trade alliance that betrayed the empire. As for the Principality of Dawn, which supports the Trade Alliance, the Galactic Empire requires the other party to consider carefully, because harboring traitors means sharing the same crime!
However, the response of the Principality of Dawn is that the matters of the Trade Alliance are commercial activities and should not be linked to politics. The Dawn Principality's investment in the Trade Alliance is also a commercial investment and has nothing to do with treason.
On October 25, the Galactic Empire announced that it would completely cut off the Lundili trade channel and cut off the external traffic of the Lundili planet. At the same time, trade sanctions were announced against the Principality of Liming, increasing import and export tariffs by 100%.
The Principality of Dawn also expressed with great regret that they would take equivalent trade sanctions.
……
While this war without gunpowder started, somewhere on the planet Cato-Neimoidia, there was a hail of bullets!
This is a rail transportation line. A rail truck is being attacked. The truck is spray-painted with an A-shaped mark, which is the mark of the Titan Security Company.
Da da da da~~~! ! Dense bullets were fired, and the hunter ran quickly, while constantly using the cover of obstacles to avoid the intensive shooting.
Phew! There was a slight gunshot, and the gunman of the Titan Security Company who was firing wildly with a fixed blaster machine gun was shot in the head!
The crosshair was hiding in a tree a thousand meters away, holding the blaster sniper rifle very calmly and changing positions. Almost at the same time, the place where he was just now was penetrated by several bullets.
"This sound...M-29 Mantis..." the crosshair muttered to himself, began to count the time silently, fired another symbolic shot, and then immediately avoided it.
Bang! ! The distinctive crisp sound of live ammunition firing rang out, and before that, the spot where he had just fired was penetrated once.
However, the crosshair had already calculated the firing rate of the M-29 Mantis sniper rifle. He quickly repositioned the blaster sniper rifle, took less than a second to aim, and then fired a shot!
Phew! ! The sniper opposite, wearing the black combat uniform of Titan Security Company, was shot in the head!
"Hahahahahaha!! Go ahead!!!" The wrecker king laughed wildly. He held a portable energy shield generator to block his front, and held a six-tube in one hand with the other hand. Blaster machine guns, shooting wildly.
The weight of these two pieces of equipment alone exceeds 80 kilograms. Coupled with the combat uniform with heavy armor on him, the weight reached a terrifying level. Such a piece of equipment, if it were an ordinary clone soldier, would require at least two people to carry it, but he walked like flying!
On the battlefield, the Wrecker King is a tank that moves at high speed without losing flexibility!
The B-1 combat robots that swarmed up were destroyed one by one. Although there were thousands of combat robots here, with this powerful breakthrough capability, it was impossible to surround them.
Huzi and Ye Zi were walking on the battlefield like two ghosts. They are outfitted with distinctive equipment, carrying jetpacks on their backs, modeled after the Mandalorian's super commandos. But their jetpacks are more complex, using vectored nozzles and four smaller auxiliary nozzles to assist with steering.
This makes their flying movements almost dazzling. Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even the more advanced fire control system of the B-2 super combat robot cannot lock their movements! As for the poor processor of the B-1 combat robot, it can't even be touched.
Such equipment can only be controlled by those who have awakened a certain degree of force! The two of them roamed the battlefield freely, hunting down every high-value tactical target.
"Attention, there is a Banshee fighter formation approaching us. We still have 3 minutes." The technician hid behind the bunker and said loudly while shooting.
The medical soldier Iron Box also hides here to provide fire cover for the front. Echo was guarding them, preventing the two who were less capable of fighting from being attacked.
“One minute is enough.” Rainbow’s steady voice appeared in the communication, “The bombs are planted, we retreat.”
Wearing an optical camouflage combat uniform, he was almost completely invisible. , not knowing his location at all.
boom! boom! boom! ! With the violent explosion, the rail truck loaded with cargo was blown directly into the sky, and the track was also blown off!
