In the following time, Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems were still fighting hard, and the flames of war had spread to hundreds of planets.
But the battles on hundreds of planets are only direct confrontations between Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems. In fact, because of Confederacy of Independent Systems's flagrant independence and the launch of civil war, internal struggles have occurred in most planets in the galaxy.
Because in Galactic Republic 25,000 years of history, there are countless contradictions left over. Galactic Republic There has never been peace during the founding period of the country. In other words, among the 25,000 years of history, the real peace has only been in the last 1,000 years or so.
Eternal War, Infinite Wars, Hyperspace War, twice Sith Wars, these are just super wars throughout the galaxy, not to mention countless local wars and even armed conflicts. The number of people who died and were injured in this process cannot be measured in numbers.
And the economic size of the entire galaxy is so huge. Countless families and classes have risen, and countless families and classes have declined; countless people have become rich, countless people have gone bankrupt, and even more people are struggling with exploitation and work. No one can calculate how much hatred and sadness there is in it.
But the power of Galactic Republic has suppressed all these contradictions. With the continuous development of science and technology and civilization, the cost of conflicts becoming higher and higher. Cold Weapon Era You can raise your arms and rise up, but in the era of hot weapons, there is already an insurmountable gap between the power of the state machine and the civilians. Even in the interstellar age, can you still defeat the space battleship if you rise up?
However, no matter how hard they are suppressed, these contradictions still exist, and they are becoming more and more powerful as they continue to brew. At that time, Galactic Republic was like a balloon filled with flammable gas. As more and more gas became available, the balloon became larger and larger, and there was a danger of collapse at any time.
Das-Pregas and Das-Sidious had carved numerous cracks into the tough shell of the balloon Galactic Republic for nearly 80 years. They did not create conflicts, but intensified them. The power of a fire does not depend on the size of the match, but on the size of the flammable material ignited by the match.
And finally, Count Dooku's Separatists lit a fire at the cracks where flammable gas was spewing out.
This fire eventually burned down the entire Galactic Republic, but the man behind the ignition, Das-Sidious, did not expect the extent of the existence he had ignited, so the fire continued to burn, and eventually the Galactic Empire he built was also burned to ashes.
Even the later New Republic was roasted by the hot embers of this fire. In the end, he couldn't bear it and became the third victim... Of course, this is a story for another day.
When the flames of the civil war were ignited, it was not just a direct confrontation between the two behemoths Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems, but more of a struggle between different classes and factions within countless planets.
Although Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems only fought on hundreds of planets, there were more than 14,000 planets where civil wars and coups broke out in the entire galaxy!!
The internal regimes of these planets have undergone many changes due to this civil war. The struggle between the pro-Confederacy of Independent Systems factions and the pro-Galactic Republic factions, and even the neutral factions who want to stay out of the matter, has also been detonated. Taking this opportunity, they have made their conflicts public.
The chatter in the parliament escalated into hand-to-hand combat, armed marches, bloody suppression, attacks on Planetary Administrative Center, armed uprisings, and even some provinces on the planet directly declared independence and joined Galactic Republic or Confederacy of Independent Systems.
If the direct war between Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems has caused tens of millions of deaths, then the death toll caused by these armed riots and even civil wars can already be calculated in the hundreds of millions.
You know, it has only been a month since the war broke out.
As the war intensifies, the control area between Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems is changing almost every day. Not only the star map based on planets, but even each planet is also changing. Maybe today the main continent of a certain planet announced that it would break away from Galactic Republic and join Confederacy of Independent Systems, and tomorrow it would be wiped out by the Galactic Republic local defense fleet that hurriedly arrived.
And because of the influence of corporate giants like Trade Federation and InterGalactic Banking Clan, many Inner Rim and even Core Worlds planets are also swinging between Galactic Republic and Confederacy of Independent Systems, which makes the situation even more complicated.
Even Republic Supreme Strategic Command cannot accurately deploy the existing occupation. They can only determine the war target to specific people.
And Count Dooku is the number one target to be captured or even eliminated.
In these countless battles, many names began to appear in the sights of both sides, such as Confederacy of Independent Systems's Blitz who captured Sarapin's Sefrans -Tann, Matt-Hona who severely damaged Republic fleet in Bespin, General Grievous who takes charge of the overall situation.
Galactic Republic There are also many famous names here, such as Jedi Master Shen-Qiaoen who regained Sarapin in one day, and who held firm Sothis sector, Confederacy of Independent Systems's superior troops were unable to advance even an inch, and even paid a heavy price to the 18th Legion Governor Wilhuff-Tarkin.
Gold will always shine. Some people are born for war. In peacetime, they have no sense of existence. But once war breaks out, they will find their most suitable stage and shine dazzlingly.
However, during this period of time, Dawn Star Planet seemed very calm. After the end of Battle of Bespin, Fourth Civilization's A and B fleets calmed down. Fleet A, under the leadership of Matt-Hona, continued to consolidate Bespin's defense line and began to mine a large amount of supplies for the subsequent war.
Fleet B continues to station on the planet Noe-ha-on, echoing Gran of Kinyen, threatening the strong defense line built by the Republic 19th Army group on Kall system.
But the confrontation was a confrontation, and they did not take the initiative to launch an attack.
On June 27, Fleet A and Fleet B quietly completed the defense change without anyone knowing. In order to improve the confidentiality, the defense change did not replace the warships, but the personnel. Afterwards, small-scale warship mobilization was carried out based on the different structures of the two fleets.
Now, Matt-Hona has been sitting on the planet Noah-Ha-on, continuing to confront 19th Legion of Governor Sulama, and Fleet B is already preparing to start the next step of the plan-attack Christophsis!
On June 29, Corporate Alliance Chairman Parcel Argent, who coveted Christophsis, finally got an emergency loan from the InterGalactic Banking Clan Chairman San Hill. Through the guarantee of this loan, To ensure that Semirians sent a fleet of 30 Hiigaran-class battlecruiser ships to Ando Planet (Ando), the assembly point selected by the Corporate Alliance, the war was about to begin.
On July 1, Kroydon on Christophsis suddenly broke out in a large-scale riot. Their leaders made a formal appeal to Planet Council on Christophsis, demanding Kroydon autonomy, and decided to join Confederacy of Independent Systems.
On July 2, the Christophsis parliament flatly rejected this rude request, and the atmosphere between the two parties began to become tense.
