The Galactic Republic is now in a puddle of mud in the north, especially in the northwest, and is almost in a desperate situation.
Even when the planet Ord-Mantel was occupied by the separatists with great fanfare and trumpeting, the Republic did not dare to say anything - because their net was cast too wide and it was no longer able to contain it.
The planet Scipio is being invaded by the geth, and Master Windu is leading an army to fight fiercely there. Moreover, after all, the Interstellar Banking Association (S) has just split off, and the Galactic Republic must also set an example for them and provide guarantees for their safety and credit, so
There is no more force to reinforce the northern border.
Of course, the more important reason is the somewhat inexplicable intelligence from Speaker Sheev Palpatine. Based on this incredible but horrifying intelligence, after thinking about it, the Republic Intelligence Department and the Republic's Supreme Strategic Command,
It is believed that if the geth and the Separatists really join forces, the Republic army will only be able to adopt a passive strategy in the north.
They were ready to abandon the entire northwest territory and redeploy their defenses with the capital of the Seventh Army, the industrial planet Bilbringi in the inner ring star region, as the core.
Fortunately, Thornhill's Interstellar Banking Association (M) is also undergoing its own integration. After they settled on the planet Oud-Mantel, they did not take any more actions.
Large-scale construction continues on the planet, and the Central Administration, the nominal government of this planet, is regarded as a transparent person.
However, the geth are still raging in the north! They still haven’t stopped!
One month later, in March of 20BBY, because they could not resist the intrusion and massacre of the geth, the Malarian Alliance, located in the central area of the northwest of the galaxy, headed by Ansion and Malarian,
'(Malarian Alliance) announced its departure from the Galactic Republic and joined the Confederation of Independent Systems.
This alliance includes seven planets, all of which are among the most powerful planets in the galaxy. Because these planets are very close to each other, the distance between them is no more than 3 seconds, so these seven planets signed the "Keitu"
The Keitumite Mutual Military Treaty established a regional alliance to advance and retreat together.
Therefore, the Malarian Alliance is still a relatively loud local power in the northern region of the Milky Way. Now that the Malarian Alliance has directly withdrawn from the Galactic Republic and sought asylum from the Confederation of Independent Systems, it has to be said that it is very important to the Galaxy.
The Republic's control in the north was dealt another fatal blow.
After receiving the request from the Malarian Alliance, the joint fleets of the Fourth Group and the Interstellar Banking Association (M) attacked again, symbolically playing a few ping-pong games near the planet Anxin on the periphery of the alliance, leaving behind
Some of the wreckage of the spaceship, whose real body could not be seen, said that the battle was really "tragic", and then told the Malarian Alliance that the geth had been repulsed.
After Musul, the representative of the Malarian Alliance, escaped from the planet Coruscant, he also tacitly praised the strength and efficiency of the Confederacy of Independent Systems fleet, saying that joining the Confederation of Independent Systems was the most correct decision for him.
The Galactic Republic is a scumbag that can't even protect our safety.
As for Fan Ke, the former Governor of the 8th Army of the Republic who fled from the north, he was immediately arrested by agents of the Galactic Republic Intelligence Department after returning to Coruscant. He was then sent to a military court and underwent a secret trial.
The trial was personally presided over by the Speaker of the Galactic Parliament, Sheev Palpatine. According to the jury members who participated in the trial, during the trial, Palpatine almost flew into a rage, pointed at Fan Ke's nose and cursed, saying
His stupidity alone has brought the entire republic's economy into a pit, causing the Interstellar Banking Association, which could have been peacefully accepted, to be split into two. As a result, the republic now has almost no money available and has to issue 10 trillion new currencies.
.
You must know that these currencies are not serious credit ingots cast from rare metals, but a kind of credit currency with no actual value. It is an electronic currency without any standard support. This is equivalent to an overdraft of the credit of the Galactic Republic. This only
It can solve the short-term problem. In the long-term, this 10 trillion credit overdraft is enough to bankrupt the government of the Galactic Republic!
All of this is due to the fact that this idiot Fan Ke easily destroyed the entire main fleet of the Eighth Army!
In the end, Fan Ke was sentenced to death and would be executed immediately, and his family property and that of Admiral Longo of the Eighth Army, who had died in the battle, would also be confiscated.
Such a severe punishment is indeed the most severe in the Galactic Republic, which rarely uses the death penalty.
This shows Palpatine's hatred for Fan Ke. From another perspective, it also shows that Tang Xiao severely defeated him this time.
The secret chess move of Geth that Tang Xiao arranged more than ten years ago finally exerted its greatest effect.
In fact, it was just an unintentional intervention at first. He did not connect the Geth with the Interstellar Banking Association at that time. He just wanted to find a suitable place to place the Geth and serve as his back-up man.
But there is also inevitability among countless accidents... After all, Tang Xiao is the apprentice of Darth Plagueis, and Darth Plagueis is also from the Interstellar Banking Association. The secret club Sojorun Satellite he founded is naturally
It's over there at the home base of the Northwest Interstellar Banking Association.
In addition, the planet Sojolon was later destroyed. When Tang Xiao released the geth, as a group under his direct control, the Kali were not far away from his loyal allies, and there was no record of any planet in the galaxy.
For the places on the map, the Sochoron satellite naturally became the first choice.
Therefore, the rise of the geth was naturally linked to the Interstellar Banking Association. Later, Tang Xiao and San-Ciel took advantage of their plan and dug a hole to bury the Eighth Army, splitting the Interstellar Banking Association. In fact,
They are all planning with what they have on hand.
Judging from the development level of the planets here, the northern border of the Milky Way is not actually a very important place. To put it bluntly, it is the countryside. But the control of the northern border means that the Kali people, the geth,
The fundamentals of several forces such as the Interstellar Banking Association and the Fourth Group have finally been stabilized.
In this direction, just like the southwest of the Milky Way where Dawn Planet is located, it truly has the capital to compete with the Galactic Republic!
Palpatine actually didn't care what happened to the North. What he really hated was that he failed to fully accept the Interstellar Banking Association. And Tang Xiao knew that in the original plot, he used Rush Clovis to do this.
A little bit.
In the original plot, in the third and final year of the war, the Confederacy of Independent Systems had actually been cut off from its source of funding. This was one of the important reasons why the Confederacy fell so quickly in the last year.
But now, Tang Xiao's plan is equivalent to allowing the Confederation of Independent Systems to get rid of Palpatine's secret control economically, and it also allows his original plan to be carried out smoothly step by step.
After that, the Governor of the Seventh Army of the Republic, Marceline Wessel (Mar Wessel), relied on his abilities and skills far beyond Fan Ke's to successfully integrate some of the forces in the north and bring the geth and separatists into the north.
The time for the ring area has been delayed by at least two years, which is a story for another day.
Sheev Palpatine also quickly emerged from the shadow of the failure of the Interstellar Banking Association's split. Anyway, the lifespan of the Galactic Republic has entered the countdown, and some of the things now are just to start some of his arrangements in advance.
.
When the Galactic Republic collapses, the 10 trillion credit currency will naturally become waste paper, which can be used to get rid of the economic crisis that his empire faced when it was founded.
As for how many people are going bankrupt in the middle, that's not something he needs to consider.
But soon, there was something that he had to think about...
