In fact, in order to avoid defeat in the Battle of Geonosis, Tang Xiao discussed with the officials of the Ministry of National Defense for a long time, and the final conclusion was simple -
If you don't want to lose, it's best not to fight.
With an army of 200,000 clones, coupled with sophisticated equipment and complete air superiority, it would be difficult for the Republic to lose this battle.
But in actual practice, I discovered that it is really not easy to organize the start of the Battle of Geonosis. No, it should be said that it is almost impossible!
The first reason is that Newt Gunray wants to kill Padmé Amidala. You say he is stupid or stupid, but this guy just wants to tell you not to kill him just when the Confederation of Independent Systems is about to be established.
Padmé will not sign the contract.
Count Dooku would naturally meet his request, and he would naturally send Jango Fett. As the strongest bounty hunter in the galaxy, Count Dooku would naturally not send anyone else.
Tang Xiao was willing to help. He didn't mind assassinating Padmé on Coruscant. This was different from the situation when he captured Padmé on Tatooine yesterday. But it was impossible for him to send Aidra to do this.
To put this person who had just fallen to the dark side and became a disciple of the Sith under the eyes of the Jedi Order was tantamount to death, and it was also tantamount to admitting to Count Dooku that Edela was his.
It is also impossible to send Mrs. M's MI, because MI's agents cannot do a better job than Jango Fett.
In addition, although Padmé Amidala looks silly and sweet on the surface, in fact, everyone involved in politics has a dark heart. She values her personal safety more than anyone else. She doesn’t say goodbye.
Yes, based on Tang Xiao's understanding of the plot and many characters of "Star Wars", he has never seen anyone become a stand-in as soon as they leave the house.
Then Tang Xiao was even less able to interfere with what happened next - the Jedi Order intervened, and Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker were sent to protect Padmé. Then the second assassination, Obi-Wan
When he went to investigate the real culprit, Anakin cheated and ate Padmé dry.
Of course, it remains to be discussed who ate whom between Anakin and Padmé, because Padmé was indeed very proactive in the relationship between the two of them.
Obi-Wan will sense the location of the Kamino planet through the Force and find Jango Fett on it. Tang Xiao first has no way to prevent Obi-Wan from finding Kamino and Jango Fett.
Leave, he doesn't know Jango and can't tell Dooku.
In the end, the only thing he could do was to run to Tatooine and catch Anakin Skywalker, but even killing Anakin and Padme would not help the outbreak of this battle, let alone that time
He has a more important plan.
So after going back and forth, he found that there was really not much he could do. Tang Xiao once again felt the power of the plot direction, but at least, make some preparations.
When he was distracted, Count Dooku had already finished speaking, but Tang Xiao had no idea what he was talking about. He only heard Count Dooku's last words: "...Everything has been prepared. In three days, we will have a battle with
The Galactic Republic launches a full-scale attack!"
Tang Xiao nodded solemnly. He had already mentioned Count Dooku's plan before. Today is the final mobilization. His plan is to declare the Confederation of Independent Systems to break away from the Galactic Republic in three days, and then launch a general attack on the Galactic Republic at the same time and completely
Occupy the entire outer ring of the galaxy.
This time they came to the planet Geonosis to receive the goods.
There are a total of 60 Rookery Hook-class battleships, 41 Diamond-class cruisers, and 286 battery-class transport ships. Such a huge transport fleet contains a total of 5 million B-1 robots and 400,000 B-2 super battle robots.
, there are also a large number of large unmanned combat machinery and support spacecraft including the C-9979 landing ship.
Count Dooku also officially confirmed to everyone that General Grievous will become the supreme military commander of the entire Confederacy of Independent Systems.
Tang Xiao was happy to see this. After all, General Grievous owed him a favor when he was still the Kali demigod. Although his memory has been modified, at least the seeds have been buried.
Got off.
Moreover, what made Tang Xiao even more happy to see was that in fact, when the Confederation of Independent Systems was founded, the highest military commander was Severance Tann. This also shows that in Count Dooku's mind, Severance Tann
It is stronger than Grievous. After all, Grievous is just a wild man and does not have much experience in commanding large-scale fleets, while Severance Tann is a regular academic.
This 5 million robot army will form the first wave of offensive of the Confederation of Independent Systems and completely swallow up the outer ring of the Milky Way.
It is a pity that if the development of the plot is followed, Count Dooku's secret meeting on the planet Geonosis was interrupted by Obi-Wan, and then Master Yoda decisively launched a war, leading an army of 200,000 clones to assemble the Confederacy of Independent Systems on Geonosis.
The army of the planet Onosis was completely defeated.
The most important thing is that the loss of these precious transport ships made it difficult for the Confederation of Independent Systems to gather a large-scale army to launch an attack in subsequent battles. Therefore, in the third year of the war, the Confederation of Independent Systems had already shown its decline.
Even if nothing happened later, we were already on the verge of failure.
It can be said that the defeat of the Confederation of Independent Systems was established from the very beginning of the Battle of Geonosis. Tang Xiao must stop this defeat!
In order to prevent this plot from happening, Tang Xiao also blocked Jango Fett's request to enter the planet Geonosis. They were having a meeting at that time, and Count Dooku suddenly received a communication from Jango Fett. He originally thought that Jango Fett
Gor Fett came to report the news that Padmé had been killed, so he generously placed the holographic projection in the middle of the conference table.
Unexpectedly, Jango Fett told him that the assassination failed again, and the planet Kamino was discovered by a Jedi, and now a Jedi is chasing him.
"Why hasn't Padmé been killed yet?" Newt Gunray roared from the side.
"I guarantee on my honor that Padmé won't live long. We should not let this matter delay our real goal." Count Dooku persuaded.
"Do you still want to back down now?" Business Guild leader Shu Mai said coldly.
"Okay, I will sign the agreement. But remember, kill Padme, this is your promise to me! Count Dooku." Newt Gunray said.
Over there, Jango Fett couldn't wait anymore. He said: "I will return to the planet to rest first, and then I will deal with Padmé Amidala. The mission will be completed."
If he were to return to the planet Geonosis, wouldn't it allow Obi-Wan and the others to sneak in and disrupt this meeting? Tang Xiao sat aside and sneered and said: "Wipe your butt clean first, and then talk about resting."
Let’s do it.”
Jango Fett was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, I will do it."
Then he turned around and flew away in the spaceship.
Tang Xiao then breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Send out fighter jets to thoroughly search around the planet to ensure that Jango Fett is not being followed!"
The situation was like this at that time. Who knew that Obi-Wan would not be caught in the end... Tang Xiao felt as if his head was about to explode.
…
At the same time, on the outskirts of the planet Geonosis, Obi-Wan Kenobi, who fell first, found a vent and called Anakin to hurry over. Rock Johnson also escaped from the burning garbage spacecraft.
He tore apart the steel plates from the wreckage and ran out, following Anakin.
"How come I've never heard of you talking about this robot?" Obi-Wan asked.
"His name is Rock Johnson, and he is the partner who has protected me since childhood." Anakin answered.
"It was Annie who picked me up from the trash and repaired it," Rock Johnson said.
Obi-Wan nodded, looked in one direction, and said to Anakin: "Do you feel it? In that direction."
Anakin's face became solemn, "I know, my sense of the Force tells me that if we go there, our lives may be in danger."
"But if we don't do this, we may miss this separatist conspiracy. You should have seen the huge transport fleet in outer space. What exactly is this fleet transporting?" Obi-Wan asked rhetorically.
"Padme has brought the news back to the planet Naboo and conveyed it to Master Yoda and the Galactic Republic. They should know what they are about to face." Anakin frowned and said.
"But it's not enough. We should give them more information."
"How to give it to them? Our spacecraft crashed, and there is communication interference everywhere, so we can't send the message out."
"Well, this is the second problem we need to solve." Obi-Wan shrugged.
"What's the first one?"
"Find out what the 'metal junk' transported by this fleet is." Obi-Wan took out the hilt of the lightsaber from his waist, but did not open the lightsaber for the time being. He shook the hilt and said: "Let's go
Anakin, avoid the greatest danger, let’s take a look and leave.”
…
At this time, Padmé Amidala's news had been conveyed to the Galactic Republic.
In the office of Speaker Sheev Palpatine, some major parliamentarians and core members of the Jedi Order gathered here. Looking at Padmé Amidala projected in the holographic projection, their faces were a little unsightly.
.
"Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi sent a message. He said that a large transport fleet has been assembled around the planet Geonosis, with at least 300 transport ships. The purpose of the Separatists is unknown."
Padmé was extremely worried.
"What is this transport fleet transporting? It can't be transporting food, right?" Master Windu said.
"Now Obi-Wan is trapped on the planet Geonosis, and Anakin is going to rescue him, but now they have lost contact. Master Yoda, I hope you can rescue them," Padmé said.
.
"Well... they must be rescued. Anakin and Obi-Wan may have information about the planet Geonosis." Master Yoda nodded and answered.
Palpatine gave a subtle glance to Deputy Speaker Mas Ameda, who understood and said loudly: "Gentlemen, our top priority should be the planet Geonosis! The separatists are on this planet.
There are a huge number of transport ships assembled on it, what are they planning?"
"There is no doubt that this is an army! The negotiations have ended and they are preparing for war!" Ask-Ak, another member of the Malastar planet, said.
Because of the previous parliamentary murders, many changes have occurred within the planet Malastar. The forces close to the Republic and alienated from separatism began to rise, so Ainle Tim was squeezed out. The current member of the parliament is Ask Ak.
, his political stance is highly consistent with Sheev Palpatine.
"No! The negotiations are not over yet! Until the Separatists actually launch an attack, there is still hope for peace!" Bail Organa, a member of the Alderaan planet who was standing aside, said decisively.
"We must react before it is too late! By the time the separatists launch an attack, it will be too late! Now we must discuss the Military Creation Act immediately. This agenda cannot be pushed any further!" Ronnie, a member of the planet Iseno.
Te-Kul said that he is a member of the Loyalty Council, and to put it worse, he is Palpatine's lackey.
Speaker Palpatine sighed and said to the projection of the communicator: "What do you think, Senator Amidala?"
"This matter must be carefully considered. I will go to Coruscant immediately to discuss this proposal with everyone." Padmé Amidala said.
"But your coming to Coruscant is still full of danger..." Palpatine seemed hesitant.
"I have to come here, for the sake of the Republic." Padmé said firmly.
"I will immediately organize people to rescue Obi-Wan and Anakin." Master Windu said.
"Thank you for your hard work," Palpatine said with a compassionate expression. "None of us want to see the Republic come to this point, but it has come to this, and we can only do our best."
After everyone left the office, Palpatine sat alone at his desk, looked at the metal statue on the left side of the door, and murmured to himself: "Did you see it? Master, our plan is about to begin.
It’s just one step away from…everything.”
There are two statues at the door of his office. The body of Darth Plagueis is hidden inside the left side, while his lightsaber is hidden inside the right side.
Palpatine opened a secret communication channel and said slowly in his original distorted and greasy voice: "Padmé is about to go to Coruscant...kill her!"
…
At this time, Count Dooku on the planet Geonosis looked down at his communicator, then clicked and forwarded the message to Jango Fett.
After receiving the signal, Jango Fett turned to look at his son Boba Fett who was standing aside, smiled and said: "The opportunity has come again, let's go, let's wipe our butts clean."
