Since Palpatine wants to overturn the table, he must have a good reason.
Although most of what politicians say is empty talk, for things like proclaiming emperor, you still have to come up with something convincing enough to prove that your own ideas are correct.
Otherwise, who would believe you, Palpatine, after being defeated again and again on the battlefield, and then turning around and saying that you are the only way out for the Galactic Republic?
If it were in the original plot, Palpatine still controlled Count Dooku. He induced Anakin Skywalker to kill Dooku, and then killed the five major corporations including Thorn Hill and Newt Gunray.
The leader of the giant ended the war within a few days, which was naturally a great achievement.
But now? Count Dooku had already seen through Tang Xiao's conspiracy under the influence of Tang Xiao, and he simply went solo. Among the five major corporate giants, Thorn Hill and Newt Gunray have also become Tang Xiao's
Allies and corporate alliances were trembling, business alliances were directly divided up, and the grass on Shu-Mai's grave was two meters high.
The last Technical Alliance was secretly collaborating with the Galactic Republic, but under the current circumstances, how could it still attack the Technical Alliance? It was too late to win over them.
The Galactic Republic has now achieved many results against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. In previous counterattacks, they cleared a large part of the Northeast, and on the eastern battlefield, they also defeated the Central Sector that the Confederacy of Independent Systems captured two years before the war.
All have been liberated, and are now besieging the key planet leading to the core of the Confederacy's rule - the planet Salukami.
However, there has been no progress at all in the direction of the war zone in the Principality of Dawn. So if you look at it from this perspective, you will find that the end of the war is far away.
So, what leverage does Palpatine plan to use to reorganize the Galactic Republic into the Galactic Empire?
This bargaining chip was now handed to him by Tang Xiao - the surrender of the Dawn Principality!
If that's the case, that would be great!
First of all, there are explanations for the disastrous defeats in the Model Sector Raid and the Yago-Durr System Battle. You see, the Dawn Planet really surrendered. I said before that Cassio Targ and Gideon Tarkin took Tang Xiao
Is it true that I was beaten until I cried for my father and called my mother? Don’t you still believe it?
So Palpatine's biggest problem now instantly becomes his biggest political achievement, and through this, he can do too many things. For example, what he wants to do most now is to flip the table.
Okay, so now the bargaining chip Tang Xiao has given is big enough, what's the price?
Palpatine looked gloomy, and after being silent for a long time, he slowly asked: "What do you want?"
"I want a lot of things, Palpatine. It's up to you whether you want to give them to me or not." Tang Xiao also spoke at a fast pace and said.
"Say." Palpatine's expression softened relatively. Not because he had figured something out, but because he began to calm down and think about the problem from the perspective of interests.
Indeed, he and Tang Xiao had already been fighting each other for a long time, so the only thing that could make them sit down and make peace was the interests.
Tang Xiao smiled slightly and said: "First of all, this war is almost over for us, so I suggest that we sign a ten-year peace agreement."
In his opinion, with the size of the Galactic Republic, not to mention ten years, twenty years of peace is enough. The longer the time drags on, the greater the gap between the two sides. It just depends on whether he wants to wait so long.
After all, if Palpatine had a choice, he would want Tang Xiao to die immediately, and it would be best not to delay for a second.
However, he also knew that this was impossible.
Not to mention that both sides are now the leaders of a huge force that dominates one side. Their personal strength is also about the same. Now both of them have begun to try to avoid the situation of fighting alone, so in the Model Sector
During the raid, he would send Jan Droga, who had a soul connection with him, to deal with Tang Xiao.
Of course, what Tang Xiao doesn't know yet is that people like James Droga are still very desirable and cannot be found casually.
Palpatine is also a very tolerant person. For ten years, he felt that he could wait.
He also believes that in ten years, his Galactic Empire will be able to survive the initial chaotic stage and will have more time to integrate its forces. By that time, let alone hundreds of capital ships, he will directly
Send out a super fleet of thousands of battleships to plow the Dawn Planet to the ground in one fell swoop!
"Then you won't have only one condition, right?" Palpatine sneered.
Tang Xiao continued: "Then, release the blockade on the Lundili Galaxy, the Cato-Neimoidia Galaxy, and the Balmoral-Neimoidia Galaxy."
"Of course there is no problem. My fleet will retreat from these galaxies." Palpatine also laughed. Now that the two sides have completely entered bargaining mode, there is no need to brag and stare.
When talking about money, be direct.
"I think you seem to have misunderstood..." Tang Xiao shook his head, "I mean, including the blockade of Lundili's trade route, it has also been opened."
Palpatine's expression became extremely cold again. Tang Xiao's condition could be said to reveal his thoughts clearly!
Unblock the Lundilli trade routes!
Palpatine is very clear about what this condition means!
The Rendili Trade Route is an exclusive route opened by Rendili Interstellar Power Company. It is used to import a large amount of raw materials from other areas of the galaxy, and then transform these raw materials into powerful ships in a large number of interstellar shipyards.
Battleship!
The Rendili trade route is equivalent to the main artery of Rendili Interstellar Power Company!
Because of this, after Rendili Star Dynamics betrayed and joined the Confederation of Independent Systems, Palpatine immediately ordered the blockade of this hyperspace channel. He asked the Republic fleet to set up checkpoints along the way and build hyperspace blocks.
device, completely blocking the entire trade route.
In this way, the huge industrial volume of Lundili Interstellar Power Company, one of the three major industrial giants in the galaxy, will not be used by the Principality of Dawn.
But if Lundili trade routes are opened, it will be equivalent to Tang Xiao directly owning the entire production capacity of Lundili Interstellar Power Company!
Although Rendili Interstellar Power Company has been surpassed by Quat Power Shipyard in the subsequent competition, and it is difficult to compare with Corellian Engineering Company, which has long dominated the field of civilian ships, after all, it still has 25,000
A super industrial giant with many years of experience.
If such power is obtained by Tang Xiao, then there is no doubt that the power of the Dawn Principality will be greatly improved!
