Chapter 2062 The Beginning of the War
2062. The beginning of the war
In the mansion arranged for Tang Yu, Tang Yu, Hu Xian, Jane Connor and others sat together with serious expressions.
"The information that has been learned is that the clone legion has joined the Republic, and the army of the Republic has also been renamed the Grand Republic Army. What exactly happened in it is unknown, but Jedi Master Shak-Ti recently left Coruscant. "Shao Liwen took out a piece of information and said.
"Shaq-ti went to the Kamino planet to supervise and protect the production of clones, and she will continue to perform this duty in the future. This is also proof that the clone army has joined the Republic, but the Republic is still keeping it secret. I'm worried that this news will give people a reason to think that the war was started by the Republic." Hu Immortal said.
Tang Yu thought for a while and said, "If nothing else, Earl Dooku is now signing an agreement with business giants such as the Geonosis Planet, the Trade Union, the Technology Union, the Interstellar Banking Guild, and the Business Association. This agreement cannot be made public. Yes, because the bodies of commercial organizations such as the Trade Union are still loyal to the Republic. In fact, it is also a gamble for them, putting more than half of their power on the side of the Confederacy, fighting a war of betting on both ends, and profiting from it Huge profits, if successful, the economic lifeline of the entire galaxy will be controlled by them."
"Should we send troops to intervene in Geonosis?" Peacock asked.
Tang Yu shook his head and said, "It's best not to go, if the Battle of Geonosis really breaks out, then the Confederacy of Independent Systems will suffer a heavy blow, and the troops we can send to Geonosis are just a drop in the bucket. And we just need to get ready in the past few days, and then deal with the core galaxies of the Confederacy."
Fox Immortal also echoed: "Besides, the situation of Geonosis is unknown now, and how the Jedi Order will react is also unclear. After all, the original plot is that Obi-Wan pursued Jango Fett all the way, and then went to Kami one after another. No and Geonosis discovered Earl Dooku's plan later. Now that the Republic is getting more and more prepared for war, it is difficult for us to get news from there. In the case of too many positions, it is best not to rush action."
Tang Yu went on to say: "Then after the agreement is signed, Peacock, you can go back to the guardian planet, and Shao Liwen will be responsible for the duties of the councilor."
Peacock nodded.
...
Meanwhile, the planet Geonosis.
In this barren planet full of huge rocks, there lived a kind of insect-like advanced intelligent creature-Geonosians. They live in rocky spires and generally do not contact the outside world, so few people know that they have very strong industrial strength. The huge factories of the Geonosians are built underground to avoid the terrible sandstorms and radiation on the planet's surface.
And they also secretly signed an agreement with the Confederation of Independent Galaxies to mass-produce all kinds of robots and a top-secret project for them.
On the outskirts of Geonosis, more than 60 large battleships are on guard, among which there are twenty huge Rukrihook-class battleships! This battleship is a super large ring with a diameter of 3170 meters. In the middle of the ring is a huge ball with a height of 1029 meters as the bridge, engine and central control facility of the spaceship. The Rookie Hook-class battleship is refitted from a cargo ship of the Trade Federation, so it has a very large warehouse space, which can carry more than 3,000 vulture robot fighters, and a robot army of up to 320,000!
But correspondingly,
The armor of the Rookie Hook class is weak, and because of its strange shape, the turret cannot cover all areas, so it is impossible to use it as a capital ship alone, and it must be covered by a large fleet.
Now among the sixty battleships around Geonosis, there are twenty Rucrehook-class battleships, which is not a battle configuration. In fact, these battleships are mainly here to receive a large number of robots produced in the factories of Geonosis.
I only saw the round ball in the center of the twenty Rucrehook-class battleships break away from the battleships one after another, and landed towards the surface of the planet. These huge spheres with a diameter of 1029 meters are the core spaceships of the Rookie Hook-class battleships, which can be separated from the main body and directly land on the planet. Otherwise, if these giant battleships with a diameter of more than 3,000 meters enter the planet's atmosphere, they will even trigger tidal reactions!
"According to the information I have received, the Republic is likely to take pre-emptive action! Their target is likely to be Geonosis! In any case, I suggest that the Geonosis fleet be ready for battle at any time!" In the hologram , Tang Yu said earnestly.
Earl Dooku nodded and said, "I understand, Your Excellency Tang Yu. The Geonosis army will always be ready to meet the challenge."
After finishing speaking, he turned off the communicator, turned his head to Obi-Wan Kenobi who was locked on a special chain and said, "See? Obi-Wan. The once peaceful and beautiful guardian planet is now the most active in preparing for war. This planet is all thanks to your republic. Isn’t what happened to them enough to warn you? The republic is rotten and rotten to the root. If you don’t make up your mind to cut off the rotten flesh, you will never It will get better."
"Haven't you Jedi knights been chasing the dark side all the time? Haven't you discovered that the real darkness is actually around you? Join me and let us build a new order together."
Obi-Wan spat and said, "You traitor who succumbed to the dark side! No matter what, I won't succumb!!"
"In this case, it would be a pity..." Earl Dooku waved his hand expressionlessly, and several robots immediately came over to escort Obi-Wan away, and then he turned on the communicator and said, "General Kaviktork, immediately Get all battleships ready for battle! The Rookie Hook-class battleship moves to hide near the star ring around Planet Geonosis!"
"Yes!!" A Semillian in military uniform answered loudly in the holographic projection.
"How is it? Emma, what can you hear from Obi-Wan's mind?" Earl Dooku turned his head and said to Emma Frost with a pleasant face.
"I can't read the mind of the Jedi Knight, but judging from his fearless performance, he should have spread the news. This is just a simple psychological analysis." Emma Frost replied.
"Then, let the war begin here!!" Earl Dooku turned around and said with his head held high.
...
In the outer space of the Geonosis planet, a burst of light flickered, and then dozens of Republic warships jumped out of hyperspace and rushed towards the waiting independent galaxy confederation fleet!
