Chapter 2236 The split of the Jedi Order and the establishment of the Blood Order (Part 1)
2237, the split of the Jedi Order and the establishment of the Blood Order (Part 1)
"Orega... I've never heard of this name." Mace Windu frowned.
"The contact person from the rebel army said that this person should have nothing to do with the Galactic Empire, but his relationship with the Principality of Dawn is a bit complicated. He doesn't seem to be a friend, but he is not an enemy either... Moreover, this time, this person is called
The people from Orega came here at the request of Tang Xiao, and it is said that they hope you can help." Ji-Adi Mundi said.
"Tang Xiao..." Mace Windu frowned in thought, his expression becoming extremely gloomy.
Before he fell to the dark side, Master Ki-Adi Mundy was one of the most respected masters of the Jedi Order. He was once a member of the Jedi Council and was also very popular. Moreover, after he fell to the dark side, he also spent time in self-imposed confinement.
, fight against the erosion of the dark side.
Therefore, although Master Ki-Adi-Mundi has fallen to the dark side, he is not crazy or extreme. Coupled with his already extremely high popularity, he has become the only one among the Blood Warriors.
The second most powerful person after Master Windu.
And because Ki-Adi Mundy has contacts with many political figures in the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire, he is also the person in the Blood Warriors who is mainly responsible for liaising with the rebels.
Yes, the Blood Warriors and the Rebel Army also have some contact, but this is only part of it. The Blood Warriors and the Rebel Army come together more because they have a common enemy.
In essence, the Blood Warriors and the Rebel Army cannot actually talk about going together. There is actually someone else who has a deep connection with the Blood Warriors.
The Blood Order was originally a part of the Jedi Order.
Before the Clone Wars broke out ten years ago, the then Chancellor of the Galactic Republic, Sheev Palpatine, had always wanted to create a more professional and powerful military, but the Republic Assembly had always blocked this. Because the Assembly believed that,
Creating an offensive army goes against the purpose of Ruusan's reforms a thousand years ago.
Sheev Palpatine could only resort to the next best thing, hoping to obtain emergency ruling powers. At that time, the separatist movement was intensifying under the leadership of Count Dooku, and it was gradually getting out of control, and Obi-Wan Kenobi infiltrated
On the planet Geonosis, it was discovered that Count Dooku was signing contracts and waging war with super corporations and major forces such as the Trade Federation, Dawn Planet, and the Interstellar Banking Association.
At that time, the war was imminent and was about to break out almost the next day. The Republic Assembly agreed to give Sheev Palpatine emergency decision-making powers so that he could deal with some issues related to the war.
When the situation arises, the decision can be made directly, bypassing the parliament.
So the first order Sheev Palpatine issued after bypassing Congress was to withdraw from the "Military Creation Act" and establish the Grand Army of the Republic.
According to the Military Creation Act, the Jedi Order will become the commander of this army. And all troops above the Legion level must have at least one Jedi present to command during an attack. When conducting military operations, a Jedi Master
The status in the army is equivalent to that of a general.
This regulation seemed understandable at the time, because after the existence of the clone army was exposed, everyone discovered that the founding of this army was signed by Jedi Master Seve Dias. Therefore, within the Galactic Republic
It is generally believed that the Jedi Order established this army, so it is natural that the Jedi Order now leads this army.
After the establishment of the Grand Army of the Republic, Speaker of the Republic Sheev Palpatine became the nominal supreme leader of the army, but most of the time he handed over command to the Jedi Order. It was this behavior that made He
Husband Palpatine won a lot of applause in the parliament. Many people believed that this was his generous act of not being greedy for power and taking the initiative to decentralize power.
However, no one knew at that time that the destruction of the Jedi Order began with the acquisition of command of the Grand Army of the Republic.
During the war, in order to maintain the peace and unity of the Galactic Republic, the Jedi Knights sacrificed their lives and blood and fought on the front line. Because of their heroic battles, they brought the Galactic Republic victory again and again. For this reason, there are also a large number of Jedi Knights on the front line.
He died heroically in the war.
But what they got was not flowers and applause, but more and more criticism. Because wars cannot always win, so every time they fail, it is always the Jedi who are blamed - because you never
Maybe blame the clone troopers who were created just for the war?
And since Jedi Knights are present in almost all battles, the damage caused by the war is also counted on the Jedi Order. There are cities destroyed, civilians affected, and starvation... Although the Jedi Order has exhausted all
We could do everything we could to prevent this from happening, but manpower was ultimately limited, and the war that engulfed the entire galaxy was far beyond what the Jedi Order of less than 20,000 people at that time could bear.
The Jedi became synonymous with war at this time. They lost their identity as arbitrators, and their status was no longer transcendent. They began to go deep into politics, the military, and inevitably, the economy. So they began to come into contact with
Encountered the core interests of some classes, such as the nobles and wealthy families in the inner circle.
The reputation of the Jedi Order also plummeted. Ironically, the more victorious they were on the battlefield, the worse their reputation became.
The person who signed the signature to establish this army was Jedi Master Seve Dias. This was a hurdle that the Jedi Order could not get around. It was this incident that gave the Jedi Order a bad reputation for waging war. In addition,
Their front-line command, so all war-related crimes were placed on the Jedi Order.
To make matters worse, as the Clone Wars gradually deepened, the war became more and more uncontrollable. In order to ensure the victory of the war, the plan of orbital bombing began to be put on the table. On many battlefields, if orbital bombing is not carried out,
It is almost impossible to defeat those battle robots that are almost everywhere in the city.
However, orbital bombing is clearly prohibited as an anti-civilization and anti-social behavior. Because endless orbital bombing will only turn habitable planets into ruins one after another. If things go on like this, this
Where in the Milky Way is there room for life?
Even though relatively developed atmosphere modification technology is now available, the natural position of the planet accounts for 99% of the factors that make a habitable planet a habitable planet. If a planet is slightly closer or farther away from the star, the natural position is not enough.
To become a habitable planet, no matter how it is modified, the upper limit will only be barely habitable.
Therefore, orbital bombing has become a matter of public concern, and the Jedi Order is naturally firmly opposed to it. But at this time, Sheev Palpatine issued a decree allowing the Grand Republic Army to conduct orbital bombing, but the conditions
It must be signed by the Jedi Commander.
On the surface, this is a decision that fully respects the Jedi Order, but in fact, it pushes the Jedi Order to the edge of a knife!
It was at this time that the Jedi Order began to split. (End of Chapter)
