Tang Xiao touched his chin and thought hard, "So last year's judicial fleet sent troops to encircle and suppress pirates, can it actually be involved in the current dispute on the planet Alastair?"
Francis Underwood replied: "Sheev Palpatine's most brilliant method is to do the opposite. He is good at creating different situations so that his seemingly positive behavior can be reflected.
It had the opposite effect, and people still praised him full of praise."
"After all, he is a master who manipulates the political arena of the entire galaxy..." Tang Xiao sighed.
To be honest, he thinks that among the legendary figures currently, Francis Underwood is the one who plays the most important role. Without the help of this old political fox, he might be betrayed by Palpatine in a few moments, and
I am also grateful to him.
Of course, out of the same consideration, he also had many balancing measures against Francis. For example, he awakened Ni Yongxiao and Helmut Zemo to check and balance, and let Super Lotus go to Francis.
With that super hacker around, nothing Francis does can escape his monitoring.
"Last year, when the Judiciary Fleet sent troops to encircle and suppress the Bislanka pirates, Finis Valorum was actually opposed to it at first. But then Palpatine convinced him because it was said that Master Dooku of the Jedi Order was personally intervening in this matter.
So it’s not so much that Valoran wants to help the outer planets wipe out pirates, it’s more that he betrayed the Jedi Order to save face,” Francis said.
"If I'm not wrong, this is just a way for Palpatine to get his way. Master Dooku will definitely think that Valorum is selling Palpatine's face, and Valorum will also think so." Tang Xiao
sneered.
"The process in the middle is unknown, but the result was very bad. During this siege, the Republic's judicial fleet was dispatched with great fanfare, which led to the leak of the news. The Bislanca pirates made a surprise attack and lost 3 ships.
Cruisers, nearly 5,000 soldiers were killed. Although after finally recovering, the Judiciary Fleet easily crushed the Bislanca pirates with its powerful ships and cannons, but this battle has become a scandal," Francis said.
.
Tang Xiao immediately remembered that when he was on the planet Sochoron, Hego Damask II's tone sounded like he knew the Bislanca pirates and their leader Tal Bis. So.
From this point of view, it is highly questionable that the judicial fleet was attacked due to leaked information.
At least, even if you know the news of the arrival of the Judiciary Fleet, but don't know the location of their hyperspace jump, there is no way to conduct a sneak attack.
"As a result, this pirate encirclement and suppression operation, including the loss of cruisers, pensions for fallen soldiers, and miscellaneous things that followed, resulted in a total loss of more than 50 million credit points. And the insurance company under the Interstellar Banking Association refused to pay this amount
Money. And without the support of these enterprises, where would the Galactic Republic's treasury have money? Even the pensions for those fallen soldiers could not be paid, and a demonstration broke out because of this last year," Francis said.
Tang Xiao finally figured it out, "So this incident makes it impossible for Finis Valorum to trust the corrupt Judiciary Fleet again. In the dispute over the planet Marastal, Valorum has already become a human being."
situation. And the most important thing is that Valorum will only blame the Justice Fleet for this failure, but will not blame Palpatine for promoting this bandit suppression. The same is true in the Congress, taking the blame
It was the Justice Fleet, but Palpatine, who vigorously promoted this bandit suppression operation, became a hero!"
Francis nodded and said: "That's right. So you can see that every move Palpatine makes, he doesn't care about the outcome. Because when the piece is put down, he has already won.
.For such a person, frankly speaking, I am not his opponent. However, with your prediction of the future, maybe I still have a glimmer of hope."
Tang Xiao felt a chill in his heart.
As the leading politician and conspirator in the entire "Star Wars" universe, and even in all the film and television game worlds he has seen, Sheev Palpatine's cunning, vision and wisdom alone are
Exposing this little tip of the iceberg is overwhelming and makes people breathless.
And such people are his most direct opponents in the future!
Seeing Tang Xiao's expression, Francis just smiled slightly. He adjusted his suit, buttoned the second to last button, and then said: "But the good news is not without it. Senator Palpatine invited me as
The representative of the Dawn Planet attended this meeting of the Galactic Parliament because he believed that the Mutual Aid Fund for the Outer Rim of the Milky Way that we initiated gave us some say in the outer planets. So, with your judgment on the future, I think I know what I am
What should be done.”
"I will also play my role well in this matter." Tang Xiao nodded and said.
"That's right, the meeting starts in 4 hours. It's time for us to get close to a big tree. Manager." Francis said this sentence with a pun, smiled, and closed the communication.
Tang Xiao sat back on the sofa and rubbed his temples. After a while, another communication was connected.
Volgograd-Kanidi's figure appeared in the projection. He was still wearing a heavy body armor. "Manager, what are your orders?"
"What was the result of the battle on Tatooine?"
"In the past 2 or 3 months, we have destroyed a total of 13 smuggling fleets and 29 spaceships. Moreover, it seems that the bounty hunters around us are already spreading rumors about the evil reputation of our black ships." Canidi seemed not to be convinced at all.
Unhappy, he lowered his head and said.
"This should be something to be happy about, right?"
"No... I have never thought that others would be afraid of me since I was a child..." Canidi's face was full of resentment and he was about to cry. "You don't know, the other person's expression when I talked to a smuggling ship yesterday..."
"It's better for others to be afraid of you than for you to be afraid of others, right?" Tang Xiao felt a little headache.
"I used to be a mining and ship pipe manufacturer..."
"You've also driven a cruiser, right?"
"That was in the military academy."
"Hey... okay. How is Santa Claus doing?" Tang Xiao asked. I don't know when Santa Claus started to become Yuri Orlov's secret code for smuggling weapons.
"Super Lotus has contacted me before. The Trojan she planted through Ifant-Mon has indeed affected the network near Tatooine. Now the movements of most bounty hunters around Tatooine are under control. Christmas
The old man can easily deliver supplies to Tatooine."
"Well done. In that case, you can return to the Endor system. I still have some specific tasks to give you."
"Finally no longer need to be a pirate?" Canidi's eyes lit up, "Can we return to the Endor galaxy?"
"Well, I'll rest for two days after I come back, and I'll leave for Malastar planet soon." Tang Xiao said.
"Planet Marastal? I know. It's where bounty hunters have been talking a lot lately. I heard they are wrangling with the Enterprise Alliance."
"That's right."
"Then...you weren't a pirate in the past?"
"I'm definitely not going to be a pirate, don't worry."
"Great! I've been waiting for this day for a long time! I'll be back soon!"
