2469. Nationalization Troubles (Part 2)

Garm-Bail-Senator Iblis took the opportunity to secretly persuade some senior executives of Corellia Engineering Company and began to let them secretly produce battleships for the Rebel Alliance.

However, it does not dare to make it too obvious at the moment. It only dares to quietly produce some small ships including CR-70 frigates and CR-90 frigates. In addition, Rebel Alliance is provided with civilian spacecraft including transport ships and cargo ships through black market and underground transactions.

In addition, Corellia Engineering Company also provides parts production, spacecraft modification and maintenance for the Rebel Alliance. These things are nothing compared to the huge military-industrial complex, and they can easily meet the current needs of the Rebel Alliance.

Then, after the Rebel Alliance obtained those transport ships and cargo ships, they transferred these spacecraft to Corellia Engineering Company for modification. And for the Galactic Empire's laws, these are all legal ways, but Rebel Alliance will get a large number of armed cargo ships.

Not only that, for the current situation of the Galactic Empire. This is not only Galactic Empire's pressure on nationalization, but also because of Imperial fleet's failure on the front line. This made many senior officials of Corellian star sector begin to think of a new option——

Be independent!

Of course, it is still too early to talk about Corellia's independence, but once such an idea appears, it will gradually take root like a cancer and can no longer be removed.

At the same time, the changes in the situation at Corellian star sector were also noticed by two groups of people secretly.

Sakorian Big Three smelled the independence of Corellia, and they began to make moves in secret, accumulating their own strength, preparing to take a share of the chaos that may occur in the future.

Also noticing this change were White Worm Gang and Crimson Dawn.

On the night after the conflict between the Galactic Empire and Corellia Engineering Company, Madam Proxima, the leader of White Worm Gang, and Dryden-Vos, the secret leader of Crimson Dawn, had a secret meeting.

At this moment, they remembered what Tang Xiao had asked them to arrange and prepare for - Corellian star sector's independent movement, and...

Midpoint Station!!

The seemingly useless preparations I have made in the past ten years seem to have their own meaning from this moment on!

Sakorian Big Three began activities, and further research on Midpoint Station also began. Many of the undercover agents and hidden lines they deployed more than ten years ago have been promoted, and many of them are now in high positions.

At the same time, for White Worm Gang and Crimson Dawn, who are still gangsters, such a change means a complete cleansing and turnaround.

Madam Proxima and Dryden-Vos have no intention of letting go of this golden opportunity!

Another protagonist in the nationalization plan is Incom Corporation (Incom Corporation).

Incom Corporation was originally a little-known company specializing in the production of anti-gravity platforms. Their main business has nothing to do with starfighters, it can only be said to be completely irrelevant.

However, they later cooperated with SUBpro Corporations (Subpro Corporations) and developed the epoch-making Z-95 Headhunter fighter. This fighter has strong firepower, excellent maneuverability, and relatively low cost. It has become the best and most popular fighter in the black market for a while.

The Z-95 fighter jet is at the right time, because the era of its birth happened to be Rusan Reforms thousands of years later, Galactic Republic a precarious era. Therefore, this kind of fighter jet is not subject to any restrictions. Not only has it received a large number of orders from the military, but it can also be sold in large quantities to Planet Defense Fleet and the black market at the same time.

This allowed the Z-95 fighter jets to receive extremely large combat database feedback during military simulation exercises and battles with pirates. Incom Corporation has thus accumulated very rich experience in fighter production and design.

These experiences were eventually transformed into the ARC-170 heavy fighter aircraft during Clone Wars. This fighter cooperated with V-19 Torrent fighter in the early stage of the war, and later with V-wing Alpha-Holy Light fighters. It can be said that it was an excellent fighter throughout the entire process of Clone Wars.

However, just when Incom Corporation was so proud and thought that he would be the main supplier of the Galactic Empire's new generation fighter jets, a bolt from the blue suddenly fell.

Palpatine supported Sith Fleet Systems, and then directly forced all of Imperial military's fighter jet orders to TIE series fighter produced by Sith Fleet Systems.

This simply ignores the laws of the market, ignores objective conditions, and even ignores product quality. It is a decision made purely for selfish interests.

Not only that, Incom Corporation didn't even save the ARC-170 fighter jet. After the TIE series fighter was adopted as the main model of the military, all ARC-170 fighter jets were retired. Incom Corporation could not even earn money to maintain the old fighter jets!

In contrast, because V-wing fighter was produced by Kuat Drive Yards, it was used as a transition for several years when the Empire was first established.

Imperial military's partiality towards 'our own people' like Kuat Drive Yards and Sith Fleet Systems is almost directly written on their faces. There is so much corruption and corruption in it, it's countless! Because in this process, the biggest corruptor is Emperor Palpatine himself!

Incom Corporation suffered a fatal blow, and even the company's own maintenance became a problem. Because of the success of the Z-95 and ARC-170 fighter jets, Incom Corporation has expanded a large number of personnel, R&D institutions and production lines, but now, they simply cannot maintain such a huge stall.

Since you don't give me a way to survive, don't blame me for finding my own way.

Incom Corporation then got in touch with the Rebel Alliance. It happened that Rebel Alliance was requested by the 'leader' at this time, and Jane-General Dodonna proposed a set of effective fighter tactics (more on this later). Therefore, Incom Corporation and Jane-General Dodonna hit it off immediately. After a series of discussions between the two parties, Incom Corporation began to design a new generation fighter jet that could meet Rebel Alliance's combat needs.

This fighter is the T-65 fighter, also known as the X-wing fighter!

However, Imperial Intelligence Department is not a vegetarian. They immediately noticed the abnormality of Incom Corporation, and immediately took action, blocking Incom Corporation's R&D center and factory, and arresting almost all senior executives of Incom Corporation, as well as their engineering team.

At the same time, Imperial Intelligence Department began to force the arrested Incom Corporation executives, demanding that they immediately hand over the design data and prototypes of the new fighter jets.

This was the request that the 'leader' later made to Meng-Mothma through Garm-Bail-Iblis, asking her to find a way to rescue Incom Corporation's senior executives, engineers, X-wing fighter data and prototypes.

And in this operation, Meng-Mothma completed it perfectly.
