1240. Northern Territory Storm (End)
Galactic Republic Now in the direction of Northern Territory, especially Northwest Territory, it can indeed be said to be a puddle of mud, almost a desperate situation.
Even when the planet Ord-Mantel was occupied by Separatists with great fanfare and loudspeaker, Galactic Republic did not dare to say a word - because their net was cast too wide and they could no longer hold it.
Scipio is being invaded by Geth, and Master Windu is leading an army to fight fiercely there. Moreover, InterGalactic Banking Clan (S) has just split off, and Galactic Republic must also set an example for them and provide guarantee for their safety and credit, so there is no more power to reinforce Northern Territory.
Of course, the more important reason is the somewhat inexplicable information from Speaker Sheev-Palpatine. Based on this incredible but horrifying information, Republic Intelligence Department and Republic Supreme Strategic Command, after thinking about it, believed that if Geth and Separatists really joined forces, Republic army would only be able to adopt a passive strategy on Northern Territory.
They are ready to abandon the entire Northwest Territory and redeploy defense with the capital of the Seventh Army, the industrial planet Bilbringi (Bilbringi) located in Inner Rim Territories, as the core.
Fortunately, InterGalactic Banking Clan (M) of Thorn-Hill is also undergoing its own integration. After they settled on the planet Oud-Mantel, they did not take any more actions. They only continued to carry out large-scale construction on this planet, and basically regarded the nominal government of this planet, the Central Administration, as a transparent person.
However, Geth is still wreaking havoc on Northern Territory! Still hasn't stopped!
One month later, in March of 20BBY, because they could not resist the intrusion and massacre of Geth, in the Northwest Territory of the galaxy Mid Rim area, 'Malareen Alliance' (Malarian) headed by Ansion Planet (Ansion) and Malarian Planet (Malarian) Alliance) announced that it would leave Galactic Republic and join Confederacy of Independent Systems.
This alliance includes seven planets, all of which are among the most powerful planets in the galaxy. Because these planets are very close to each other, the distance between them is no more than 3 seconds, so these seven planets signed "Keitumite Mutual Military Treaty" (The Keitumite Mutual Military Treaty) and established a regional alliance to advance and retreat together.
Therefore, this Malareen Alliance is a local powerful force that speaks loudly in the Northern Galaxy area. Now Malareen Alliance directly quits Galactic Republic and seeks asylum from Confederacy of Independent Systems. It must be said that it is another fatal blow to Galactic Republic's control over Northern Territory.
After receiving the request from the Malareen Alliance, the combined fleets of Fourth Group and InterGalactic Banking Clan (M) attacked again, symbolically playing ping-pong-pong for a few times near Ansion Planet on the periphery of the alliance, leaving behind some unidentifiable spacecraft wreckage to show that the battle was really "tragic", and then told Malareen Alliance that Geth was repulsed.
After the Malareen Alliance's representative, Musur, tacitly praised the power and efficiency of Confederacy of Independent Systems fleet after escaping from Coruscant, saying that joining Confederacy of Independent Systems was the most correct decision. Galactic Republic, who can't even protect our safety, is a scumbag.
As for the former Republic 8th Army Governor Fan Ke who fled from Northern Territory, he was immediately arrested by the Republic Intelligence Department agents after returning to Coruscant. After that, he was sent to a military court and accepted the secret Judgment.
This Judgment was personally presided over by Chancellor of the Galactic Senate Sheev-Palpatine. According to the jury members who participated in Judgment, during the trial, Palpatine was almost furious and pointed at Fan Ke scolded, saying that his stupidity alone had brought the entire Galactic Republic economy into a pit, so that InterGalactic Banking Clan, which could have been accepted peacefully, was now divided into two, resulting in Galactic Republic now having almost no money available and having to issue 10 trillion new currencies.
You must know that these currencies are not serious credit ingots cast from rare metals, but a kind of credit currency with no actual value. It is an electronic currency without any standard support. This is equivalent to overdrafting the credit of Galactic Republic. This can only solve the short-term problem. In the long-term, this 10 trillion credit overdraft is enough to bankrupt the government of Galactic Republic!
All of this is due to the fact that this idiot Fan Ke easily destroyed the entire main fleet of the Eighth Army!
Finally, Fan Ke was sentenced to death and executed immediately, and his and Eighth Army Admiral of the Navy Longo, who had died in the battle, their family properties will also be confiscated.
Such a severe punishment is indeed the most severe among Galactic Republic, which rarely uses the death penalty.
This shows that Palpatine hates Fan Ke. From another perspective, it also shows that Tang Xiao severely defeated him this time.
The secret chess game Tang Xiao arranged by Geth more than ten years ago has finally played its greatest role.
In fact, it was just an accident at first. He did not connect Geth with the InterGalactic Banking Clan at the time. He just wanted to find a suitable place to place Geth as his back-up.
But there is also inevitability among countless accidents... After all, Tang Xiao is the apprentice of Das-Pregas, and Das-Pregas is also descended from the InterGalactic Banking Clan. The secret club Sojourn Satellite he founded is naturally over there in Northwest Territory InterGalactic Banking Clan's lair.
In addition, Sojourn Planet was later destroyed, and when Tang Xiao released Geth, as a place under his direct control, not far from his loyal ally Caladanian, and not recorded on any star map in the galaxy, Sojourn Satellite naturally became the first choice.
Therefore, the rise of Geth was naturally linked to the InterGalactic Banking Clan. Later, Tang Xiao and Thorn-Hill took advantage of the situation and dug a hole to bury Eighth Army and split InterGalactic Banking Clan. In fact, they all planned using the things they had in hand.
Northern Galaxy, judging from the degree of development of the planet here, it is not actually a very important place. To put it bluntly, it is the countryside. But the control of Northern Territory means that the basic bases of several forces such as Caladanian, Geth, InterGalactic Banking Clan, and Fourth Group have finally been stabilized.
In this direction, just like Southwest Territory where Dawn Star Planet is located, it truly has the capital to compete with Galactic Republic!
Palpatine actually doesn't care about Northern Territory. What he really hates is that he failed to fully receive InterGalactic Banking Clan, and Tang Xiao knows that in the original plot, he did this by using Rush-Clovis.
In the original plot, in the third and final year of the war, Confederacy of Independent Systems was actually cut off from its source of funds. This was also one of the important reasons why Confederacy of Independent Systems failed so quickly in the last year.
But now, Tang Xiao's plan is equivalent to allowing Confederacy of Independent Systems to get rid of Palpatine's secret control financially, and also allowing his original plan to be carried out smoothly step by step.
After that, Marcellin Wessel, the governor of the Republic 7th Army, successfully integrated part of Northern Territory's power by virtue of his abilities and skills that far exceeded Fan Ke, delaying the entry of Geth and Separatists into Northern Inner Rim Territories by at least two years. This is a story later.
Sheev-Palpatine also quickly emerged from the shadow of the failure of the InterGalactic Banking Clan's split. Anyway, Galactic Republic's lifespan has also entered the countdown, and some of the things now are just to start some of his arrangements in advance.
When Galactic Republic collapses, the 10 trillion credit currency will naturally become waste paper, which can be used to get rid of the economic crisis that the Empire faced at the beginning of its establishment.
As for how many people are going bankrupt in the middle, that's not something he needs to consider.
But soon, there was something that he had to think about...
