The battle launched by General Grievous was later named the Ritual Attack by the Supreme Strategic Command of the Galactic Republic, because this period was originally the date of the ancient Mon Calamari festival, but because Grievous
General Si's crazy offensive forced the Mon Calamari people to interrupt the festival. Even after this war, their planet has penetrated deep into the hinterland of the separatism and has been cut off from contact.
During the Festival Offensive, the Dark Blue Spears of the 12th Army of the Galactic Republic were completely defeated, and almost all jurisdictions were occupied. If it weren't for General Grievous's lack of interest in their capital, the planet Lantillies,
If so, perhaps the 12th Army will be the next to be delisted.
In addition, the 4th Army and the 16th Army of the Republic also suffered heavy losses and almost lost the ability to fight again. The Iron Lance of the 13th Army stationed in Hutt Space was also severely damaged by the mobile fleet during the rescue process.
Had to retract it again.
The heavy losses suffered by the 13th Army also directly caused the chaos caused by Darth Malthael in the Hutt space at the same time to lose the power of checks and balances and intensify.
Coupled with the Red Tails of the Republic's 14th Army, which is currently being besieged by the Techno Union's foreman Walter Tambor, the capital planet of Rynos, nearly half of the 20 legions established by the Galactic Republic have lost their combat effectiveness.
The Supreme Strategic Command of the Galactic Republic immediately began to adjust its deployment, allowing the 3rd Army, one of the legions that guarded the core circle, to fully reinforce the 12th Army's planet Lantilias, turning the planet into a powerful fortress, and also
Inject a booster into Therbon, the Governor of the 12th Army.
At the same time, prepare for the worst and prepare to arrange the evacuation of the 14th Army. However, this action is tantamount to giving up on the Twi'leks, and the Twi'lek councilor Orn Free-Tower has a very high reputation in the parliament.
, and therefore encountered many obstacles.
Chancellor Sheev Palpatine took this opportunity to issue war bonds again and borrow 1,000 billion credits from the Interstellar Banking Association to build more warships, build a stronger army, and develop more industries.
In fact, the two super giants, the Interstellar Banking Association and the Trade Federation, are not completely committed to the ranks of separatism, because a large part of their core interests are also in the inner and core circles of the galaxy, so even if
The war has started, and they are still doing business on both sides.
The reason why the Republic is surrounding several core planets of the Trade Federation - Cato-Neimoidia, Balmoral-Neimoidia, as well as the Interstellar Banking Association's Mechito and Murinster.
This is also the reason for not attacking.
This huge war loan has further enhanced the reputation of Thorn Hill, the co-chairman of the Interstellar Banking Association, in the association. The senior officials attributed this to the dividends brought by this war, thereby criticizing Thorn Hill, who decisively supported the separatism in launching the war.
-Hill is more supportive.
Of course, externally they still claim that they support the Republic, and all loans and support to the separatists are only to protect their own industries. This means that if the Republic threatens the safety of their own industries, they will naturally fight back.
After receiving the war loan, the Galactic Republic sent an endless stream of orders to the Quat Power Shipyard. The interstellar shipyard of the Quat Planet was fully started. Thousands of Jaeger-class battlecruisers began to lay down their hulls on the star ring of the Quat Planet.
The scene is extremely spectacular.
In contrast, another super shipbuilding company fell behind - Rendili Interstellar Power Company.
Because of the shortsightedness and decision-making errors of the company's top management, they misjudged the situation before the outbreak of the war and believed that the modernized Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser could fully meet the needs of the Republic.
The Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser has mature technology, low cost, simple crew training, and has a strong deterrent effect on pirates, and the battleship data is also within the regulations of Rusan reform. For the Republic's Judicial Fleet at that time,
This is indeed the best choice.
However, first the Blade Fleet, equipped with 200 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers, disappeared, causing the Republic to question the reliability of the battleships and canceling almost all orders. Then, as several major industrial giants and the Republic broke up with each other at that time, Hiigara
-class battlecruisers, Defiant-class light destroyers, and Cheer-class assault landing ships have appeared one after another. Not to mention other things, the data on these battleships can knock the Dreadnought-class to the ground.
Later, the Chasseur-class battlecruiser launched by Quart Power Shipyard, as well as the Dawn Planet Cole-class battlecruiser, which was discovered only after the war began, the Interstellar Banking Association Behemoth-class battlecruiser, and the Confederation of Independent Systems Divine Will-class destroyer, these 1100~
As soon as the 1,300-meter class battleship appeared, the Dreadnought was thrown directly into the garbage dump.
By the time Rendili Interstellar Power Company realized all this, it was already too late.
They urgently began to design a new type of capital ship, the 900-meter-long Victory-class Star Destroyer, but after all, they were already a big step behind. Officials from the Combat Readiness Procurement Agency of the Supreme Strategic Command of the Galactic Republic learned that Rendili's new battleship actually
It's just a 900-meter warship, and it will take another 8 months to be put into active service. It didn't even get in the door before turning around and leaving.
While Corellia Engineering Company has its own fixed market share in the fields of merchant ships, cargo ships and small spacecraft, the gap between Rendili Star Dynamics Company and Quat Dynamics Shipyard in large battleships is getting wider and wider.
In short, the gears of the Galactic Republic War did not slow down because Rendili Interstellar Power Company fell behind. On the contrary, they began to rotate faster and faster, growing larger and larger, just like a black hole devouring countless resources.
At this time, mineral planets across the galaxy are attracting more and more attention, so... the discovery of precious minerals on a remote planet that no one had ever paid attention to, the Jabim planet, triggered a conflict between the Republic and the Confederation of Independent Systems.
of attention.
Jabiim is an originally inconspicuous planet in the outer ring of the Milky Way. This planet has a very harsh climate. Basically, there are only a maximum of 5 rotation days in a revolution year that are sunny, and the rest of the time it is sunny.
rain.
Not only that, because of the unique structure of the planet's atmosphere, there are a large number of electromagnetic particles in the planet's clouds, which will greatly interfere with the flight of spacecraft and fighter jets.
Under such an environment, outsiders are actually basically unwilling to go to the planet Jabim, and there is nothing on the planet Jabim that can be exploited by the Republic.
Therefore, around 34 BBY, the brain plague virus broke out on the planet Jabim and was attacked by interstellar pirates. The Galactic Republic remained indifferent.
The Outer Rim Planets Mutual Aid Fund established by Claire Underwood, who was just rising in Coruscant politics at the time, helped the planet Jabim and also funded bounty hunters to repel the pirates.
It is such a shabby planet that neither father nor grandma cares about. In recent months, mineral veins hidden at the bottom of deep underground swamps have been suddenly discovered. The metal produced in the mineral veins is a key material used by the Republic's shipbuilding industry to make resistant steel armor.
!
As a result, officials from the Galactic Republic rushed over with a piece of paper in their hands, wanting to exchange cheap food and dumped products for the mineral veins of the planet Jabim.
