1162. Northern Territory Storm (1)
Speaking of which, Tang Xiao also had a relationship with the planet Oud-Mantel before.
When he was still practicing under Darth-Pregas, Pregas once sent him to the planet Oud-Mantel and massacred a casino.
But this time, Tang Xiao was not directly involved in what happened on the Oud-Mantel planet. He was on his way to Planet Korriban.
Speaking of which, this protagonist never shows up for more than ten chapters. His life is pretty good, right? His pay will be deducted another day.
Here, it needs to be mentioned that Northern Sector in the Milky Way does not have a large hyperspace channel passing through it. Because of this, even though Northern Sector is not far from Coruscant on the plane star map, in fact it is still a very remote star area compared to other places.
So although the planet Oude Mantel belongs to Mid Rim, in the eyes of many Core Worlds people, this place is just like Outer Rim.
There are two other places in the Milky Way that do not have large-scale hyperspace channels, one is Unknown Regions, and the other is Hutt Space. This actually shows that Galactic Republic is actually a regime established based on hyperspace channels. It is extremely dependent on hyperspace channels for both administration and expansion.
Apart from hyperspace navigation, they do not have any means of faster-than-light navigation, but from another perspective, since there are safe and fast hyperspace channels, they really do not need to develop other means of faster-than-light navigation.
In other universes, when traveling at the speed of light, you may encounter four vendors, or you may encounter high-dimensional demons, but in the Star Wars universe, there is really nothing in the hyperspace. The only danger in the hyperspace channel is that you risk flying around, and then hitting the mass projection of those stars...
It is true that there are occasionally some high-dimensional animals active in hyperspace, but most of them are too lazy to pay attention to you.
Talking back to the planet Ord-Mantel, these are the two relatively large hyperspace channel tributaries in the background - Celanon Spur (Celanon Spur), and Entralla Route (Entralla Route), although the transportation convenience is far from comparable to real transportation hubs such as Eriadu and D'ron, it is already very good in the remote Northern Territory.
After the war broke out, Galactic Republic Grand Army of the Republic was established, among which Eighth Army was divided into Northern Galaxy, and a legion was established with Bright Jewel Sector as the core. The legion command center was established on the planet Oud-Mantel.
Because of this, Eighth Army is also called 'Bright Jewel Command' (Bright Jewel Command).
Because the jurisdiction of the Eighth Army also includes InterGalactic Banking Clan and Fourth Group, the political and military situation is relatively complicated, so Eighth Army is also the larger one among the 20 legions.
Eighth Army, together with the Ninth Army and Tenth Army, formed Northern Campaign Sector Armies (Northern Campaign Sector Armies). The name is very impressive, but when it comes to requests for supplies and support, they are always ranked lower, and life is not easy. Fortunately, in the early days of the war, Confederacy of Independent Systems was not active in this direction, and InterGalactic Banking Clan and Fourth Group both seemed quite honest.
Eighth Army's fleet is not powerful, but it has a powerful army, which is divided into three armies - Delta Army, Epsilon Army and Zeta Army. Legion Governor is a human noble from Coruscant, Fan Ke (Vanko).
However, it should be noted that although Eighth Army's command center is set up on the planet Oder-Mantel, they do not control this planet. Eighth Army's command center is set up on the spaceport, and there is a garrison area on the edge of the planet's capital Worlport.
This garrison area is called 'White Zone' by the locals because of Clone Trooper's white combat armor.
On the surface, the planet Oud-Mantel declares neutrality, but in fact, Separatists's forces inside the planet are very powerful. However, because the planet's own political power was transformed from a powerful gang, and the internal affairs were extremely complicated, Eighth Army was unable to straighten this matter out and could only let it go.
The planet Oud-Mantel has become a very rare planet where Galactic Republic and Separatists coexist.
However, starting from last year, the situation in the Eighth Army's jurisdiction suddenly changed, and the entire area began to become chaotic and full of dangers!
Last year, they first raided Core Worlds, and then Plague Titan warship, who broke out all the way, wandered around in their jurisdiction, causing great chaos, and then a more terrifying threat appeared——
Geth(Geth)!!!
This is a mechanical race. Their most obvious feature is their flashlight-like sensors, and their bodies are made of bionic materials, making them very flexible.
No one knows where Geth appeared from and where their nest is.
I only know that ever since they appeared, they have been wreaking havoc in the Northern Galaxy area, and they actually know how to proceed step by step. They started with some remote colonies, then mining areas, and remote planets. In the process, their strength began to expand, and then they began to attack those relatively developed planets.
This ruthless mechanical race possesses extremely high intelligence and cruel methods. After they invade the planet, they will drive the people in the occupied area together, then pierce them into a four- to five-meter-high steel needle, extract all the water, implant nanomachines, and turn these people into the terrifying Corpse Puppet!
Then, they will use Corpse Puppet as cannon fodder to attack the big cities on the planet.
When these terrifying Corpse Puppet appear, they often cause the morale of the local defense troops to collapse due to fear. Later, when faced with the attack of Geth regular troops, they are completely defenseless.
Geth did not occupy any planet at the beginning. After they destroyed some colonies, they would only take away the industrial equipment and some Elite Class's Corpse Puppet, leaving only a dead ruin and ordinary Corpse Puppet all over the mountains and plains.
Later, perhaps when Geth becomes stronger, they will begin to occupy some planets. But again, they are only interested in resource areas and industrial areas. They will transform industrial areas into factories that can produce their own machinery, and resource areas will continuously provide various resources.
As for these cities that have been astrologically orbs, apart from the ruins, they are Corpse Puppet. They are completely cities of death!
During the raging process, Geth attacked almost indiscriminately. In addition to attacking the planet occupied by Galactic Republic, they also attacked the planet occupied by Separatists. They almost became a public nuisance to the entire Northern Sector!
The number of their fleets is not large, but they always appear and disappear, and their flexibility and maneuverability are very high, making it impossible for Republic fleet to seize the opportunity for a decisive battle.
