The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

228. Industrial Giants

Tang Xiao was in a bad mood when he came out from Darth Plagueis, but now that the assistant handed him the target, he wanted to explode.

When he spoke, he was not angry and pretentious. Whether he was a Sith or a leader, his current aura was definitely not something ordinary people could bear.

The assistant was already sweating and trembling all over, and quickly fell to his knees and explained, "No...that's not what it means...the manager. This is the accumulation of technology, not to build these warships right away..."

"Get up and talk." Tang Xiao said lightly.

The assistant stood up and continued to explain: "The puppet-class drone carrier is for us to build an aircraft carrier for technology accumulation, and the ion cannon destroyer is to further enhance the firepower of our fleet, and the Apocalypse-class light cruiser is for... ..."

"Who reported this plan? Let me guess later, it wasn't reported by Chi Jianjun, right?" Tang Xiao asked before he could finish speaking.

The assistant lowered his head and said in a low voice: "No... it was submitted by Karls Wharton of the Supreme Command... some of his opinions conflict with Professor Chi..."

Tang Xiao sneered. The Fourth Civilization is not that big, and now there are factional struggles? He snorted coldly, "It is a good thing to have different opinions, but what is the situation that this obviously violates the established plan I put forward? So, Karls Wharton thinks that my decision to suspend the development of large warships is wrong ?”

"No...no! I don't think he will be like this..." The assistant's clothes were soaked in cold sweat again.

"Tell me what I said to Carls Wharton. His punishment is a week of confinement. If he commits the crime again next time, he will be punished himself. That's it." Tang Xiao dropped these words and left.

"yes!"

After coming to the office and reviewing the urban development strategy reported by Minister of the Interior Daphne Clemente, Tang Xiao looked at the item message waiting for his instructions, and then connected a communication.

Francis Underwood's holographic projection appeared, he bowed to Tang Xiao first, and then said: "Phoenix-Valenlon is going to hold a trade summit on the planet Eriadu, this trade The summit will invite the main corporate giants of the galaxy and other influential organizations to participate. It aims to resolve existing disputes, initiate dialogue, and put the Galactic Republic back on track."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Tang Xiao's mouth, "This meeting will not produce any results. You can refer to the main opinions of the trade alliance at the meeting to determine our current diplomatic strategy. I only have one request - let our industrial capabilities be further developed." Don’t just use our power in the black market, we need orders from official channels.”

"You seem to think this meeting is a victory for the Trade Federation?" Francis asked.

"Yes, and no. But what I need to remind you is..." Tang Xiao stretched out his thumb and scratched his neck.

Francis nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "Recently, Schiff Palpatine once again revealed his idea of ​​letting us enter the Galactic Council. According to my judgment, he is likely to be serious. .”

Tang Xiao nodded, "According to his plan, the time is approaching. If he wants to impeach Finnis-Valorum to step down and replace him himself, he must get enough votes. As long as you continue to show your strength in this aspect value, sooner or later he will pass us the olive branch."

"The opinions of the members of the ring faction are very important. At present, I have a closer relationship with them. But in fact, I think that the votes of the ring faction members themselves are in Palpatine's plan, and what he needs should be votes from other factions. "

"For example?"

"Planet Kuat, Planet Lundili, Planet Corellia...the support of these old industrial planets and the huge industrial giants behind them!" Francis Underwood became serious, "But we must What I understand is that these old industrial planets simply look down on other political entities in the galaxy, and they don't bother to participate in any factional struggles. Because they know that no matter how the galaxy changes, their own status will always be rock-solid. So they participate in politics The only purpose is to protect their own interests."

Tang Xiao pondered for a while, and then said: "If my guess is correct, Palpatine should have already started his plan against these industrial giants. However, my understanding of this aspect is not particularly detailed, but I know a The general direction. In Palpatine's future plans for his empire, one industrial giant is enough. And he chose Quarter."

Francis nodded slightly, "So, are Rendili and Corellia abandoned?"

"Corelia is okay, because the Corellian galaxy has an abnormal 5 habitable planets. They themselves are a comprehensive and powerful galaxy, and industry is only part of their strength. Even if Palpatine becomes the emperor, Corellia still has enough ability to guarantee her status, so...you understand." Tang Xiao smiled slightly.

"I know what to do." Francis said, "I may use some small means next, and I think those two people on the planet Corellia will be very useful."

"Dryden Voss from Blood Dawn, and Mrs. Vixi from White Worm? It's okay, you can go find them. Now my relationship with them is in the honeymoon period, and it's pretty good." Tang Xiao replied, " It is a good choice to use them to start the layout in advance. I can also remind you that the highest level of the Corellian galaxy has always wanted to be independent. This is their deepest hidden political tendency. And Kuat's The political orientation is biased towards a unified galaxy power. Relatively speaking, Lundili is the most businessman-like among the three."

"This is very useful information."

"Then, where's Yuri-Olov?" Tang Xiao asked with a soft sigh.

Francis shook his head, "No, the Jedi Order has been staring at him, and Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi seems to hate Yuri, and he vented all his anger on Yuri. In Master Mundi Yuri was sentenced to life imprisonment."

"So, the mediation on Celia planet failed?" Tang Xiao smiled meaningfully.

Francis also smiled and said: "I think Vitaly Olov should be more aware of this matter. In recent months, he has been moving around without closing his eyes, and he has lost a lot of weight. Don't worry. Well, Manager, Baron Zemo has a plan now, and we are all preparing for it. Yuri should be released within half a year."

[PS: Actually, in Xiaojing’s personal opinion, the prototype of Kuat Power Dock is Desan’s Krupp, while Corellia is more like California in the United States. 】
