Lynch-Hauser was so shocked by Admiral Kurny's words that he broke into a cold sweat. He never expected that Admiral of the Navy would be so courageous. He actually wanted to trade Galactic Republic's territory with Trade Federation!
You must know that even now Trade Federation still has a representative seat in Galactic Republic Senate, but they have been completely labeled as a Separatists force. The main reason why the representative seats have not been removed until now is that Trade Federation still has a large number of industries and businesses within the jurisdiction of Galactic Republic.
In this case, Admiral Kurny's plan is to make a deal with Trade Federation on the surface, but in fact it is no different from giving their resource center directly to the enemy.
"This is the only way for us to survive this disaster!" Kurny said loudly, "Do you naively think that with the property of the two of us, we can impress the first and second leaders of Trade Federation? Wake up! When things have reached this point, all we want is to protect ourselves!"
Lynch Hauser's expression was gloomy. After a long time, he said, "Okay, we can try to contact Lot Dude, but don't contact Newt Gunray... That guy will no longer appear at Galactic Republic. He is a complete Separatists. On the contrary, Lot Dude, at least he stays in the parliament all year round, and there is still some possibility of communication."
"You come to pull the strings, and then the two of us will talk to him together." Admiral Kurny said, "As long as a large-scale fleet battle can be avoided in Enarc system, then this Trade Federation base will not be too damaged, and a mining planet can be obtained for nothing. I believe that a businessman like him will definitely make the most appropriate choice."
Lynch-Hauser nodded grimly.
At this time, Tang Xiao is in the capital of Confederacy of Independent Systems, Raxus Prime.
He is meeting with Count Dooku to discuss Confederacy of Independent Systems's next combat policy and plan. In fact, the declaration they issued in unison to support Jedi Order was also a joint action after discussion.
"... So I do think that there are definitely not a few Jedi Knight who can escape from Order 66 and fallen to the Dark Side in such a betrayal." Count Dooku touched the white beard on his chin and said, "There is no doubt that these people will be our help."
Tang Xiao nodded and said, "But we must be on guard. There may be some who are very strong and the Will. After such training, they will only become stronger, and their light cannot be shaken."
"I agree with your previous view. Lord Archangel of Death-Light Side may also be our allies, and our only enemy is actually just Jedi Order." Count Dooku said with satisfaction.
"If fallen to the Dark Side's Jedi Knight succumbs to their own emotions and desires, then they will more likely choose the powerful Galactic Republic instead of us. But now it seems that Palpatine obviously has no interest in ours. "Republic army is very angry. Even if he lets Republic army attack again, their attack intensity will obviously be reduced a lot. We can seize the time and continue to reduce Galactic Republic's military strength," Tang Xiao said.
"Actually, I am now more inclined to believe that Palpatine's current anger is just a pretense and a political show." Count Dooku said, "It is simply impossible to get all the benefits in the hands of people like him. In fact, what we can do now is to each get what he needs - he gets the trump card he wants, and we get some escaped Jedi Knight."
Tang Xiao nodded with a serious expression. In fact, it was within his expectation that such a situation would occur. Because Order 66 was launched nearly a year in advance, and it happened to be at the stage when Kaminoan clone troopers was eliminated by genetic weapons and Spaarti clone troopers had just begun to be put into use.
In fact, he believes that if Spaarti clone troopers has not invested yet, then Palpatine will definitely choose to continue to hold back for a while and wait for the time to be more mature before launching Order 66 in one fell swoop.
Even so, the effect of activating Order 66 at this time is far inferior to that of the original plot.
On the one hand, because Spaarti clone troopers is a quick success, its combat capabilities are far inferior to Kaminoan clones, and the threat to Jedi Knight is also much smaller. On the other hand, after all, they have just begun to deploy. Compared with when Order 66 was launched in the original plot, Spartan clones has not yet become the mainstay of the army, and is launching a comprehensive counterattack in multiple directions. In this way, the suddenness of the attack has also been reduced a lot.
So according to Tang Xiao's current estimate, at least one-third of Jedi Knight will survive among Order 66. Compared with the result of the original plot where he was almost killed to extinction, it is already countless times better.
And as he said to Count Dooku before, their real and unrelenting enemy is actually Jedi Order, not Jedi Knight. After Jedi Order is destroyed, those Jedi Knight who have lost their position will be much less hostile towards him and Count Dooku.
At least in this matter, Darth-Sidious sucked in a wave of hatred.
With such a foundation, after the destruction of Jedi Order this time, he can also look forward to the Jedi Knight who escaped and joined Fourth Civilization. And he has also arranged for the Intelligence Department gates in various places to be ready to cooperate with those Jedi Knights to escape from Galactic Republic's jurisdiction.
However, even if Fourth Civilization has public Force academy Holy Spirit Academy and Holy Spirit Sect there, Tang Xiao also understands that his side is still attractive to Jedi Knight. It is far inferior to Count Dooku. After all, he was once the elder of Jedi Order, and his status in Jedi Knight's mind is far from what Fourth Civilization can compare with Archangel of Death.
"By the way, having said that, Lord Archangel of Death. I am still twice as interested in the Book of Sith book in your hand. Is this book the inheritance of Sith?" Count Dooku asked suddenly.
"Book of Sith itself has no power, but it is the ritual and symbol of Sith path. Being recognized by Book of Sith will not directly make people stronger, but there is no doubt that with The connection between Sith path will become even closer." Tang Xiao glanced at him and asked, "But now you probably have little interest in becoming Sith Lord, Count Dooku."
