The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1193 : Political Turmoil

Stella Grera got the news of her brother's awakening from the doctor, she put down her busy work and rushed to the underground hospital that the Galactic Republic helped them build secretly.

She saw Saw Gerrera standing by the window without saying a word, his missing leg replaced by a mechanical prosthesis.

"You finally woke up, Suo. Great, we need your help." Although Stella was depressed, she still forced a smile.

"Are you happy?" Saw Gerrera asked suddenly.

"What did you say?" Stella didn't respond for a while.

"All your judgments are right, this is a trap, and we shouldn't fight that THOR mecha. Ah, you are right, great leader Stella. You must be happy now, right? "Saw Gerrera said eccentrically.

Stella said seriously: "I never had such an idea brother, we have lost many brothers, and many brothers have been arrested. Now is our most difficult moment, and we need your help!"

Saw Gerrera stood up and said coldly: "That's enough! You can be the leader. You have proved that you are a qualified candidate through my mistakes. Now, happily take office As for me, I am a sinner, I trusted the traitor Lukes, and I will take responsibility."

Stella shook her head and said: "This disaster is the fault of each of us, and our intelligence source has been infiltrated by General Kalani, who has been digging holes for us since that day, we underestimated the enemy. But we still have a chance! We can still..."

"What chance is there?" Saw Gerrera asked coldly, and he turned on the switch of the holographic projection beside him, which was broadcasting news about Planet Onderon.

Regent Sanji-Rush stood proudly in front of the stage and gave a speech. The speech script modified by many experts was indeed very provocative, and beside it was a picture of the massacre of rebel fighters by Thor's mecha.

Although the communication was temporarily cut off that day, the reconnaissance drone arrived on the battlefield quickly, and transmitted the footage back, recorded and saved it, and now it is broadcasting it to the public without any modification. The threat is self-evident.

Then, Sanji Rush said triumphantly that a public trial would be held three days later to publicly try those captured rebels and execute them on the spot.

He also released a list. The top three on the list are the Planetary Councilor Mina Bontry, the Planetary Minister of Agriculture, and the Secretary of the Interior.

Stella sighed, "Indeed, I am working with General Skywalker to find a way to rescue these people, but it is really difficult. And... Mina Bontry is also in it, which on the contrary shows that Lux and the others The whole family is a victim of General Kalani's conspiracy. At least, Lukes did not betray us..."

"Hehe..." Saw Gerrera sneered, "Are you still thinking about that brat? If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't be like this."

"Such thinking is wrong!"

"Wrong? You said it was wrong?!" Saw Gerrera's voice suddenly increased, "It was you who introduced Lukes into the rebel army! It was you! Those who were complacent about his insignificant intelligence It’s you! It’s you!! And then in the end you say it’s all a mistake!? Then what did it matter when you broke my leg with a shot? Ah? What did it matter?”

"You should calm down, So! How can you say that?!" Stella exclaimed.

"No! I'm calm! I've figured it out! I can't do anything with you!" Saw Gerrera yelled at Stella, then pushed her away and limped away out.

Stella was shocked and stared blankly at her brother leaving, not knowing what to say for a while.

...

When Tang Xiao received the communication from Councilman Ainle-Tim, his spaceship was docked next to a space ruin.

This ruin used to be a large armed space station, but it has been completely destroyed, leaving only this relatively strong structure floating in the void in tatters.

Visible to the naked eye in the distance is a khaki-colored planet. In the popular words of bounty hunters, this is a worthless lump of dirt.

Earthy yellow, means a barren.

Here, is the Korriban planet (Korriban), the origin of Sith!

It was also where Tang Xiao—Darth Malthael wanted to sublimate his power!

The war has entered the final stage, whether it is the Federation of Independent Galaxies or the Galactic Republic, the lifespan has come to an end.

He is powerless to stop the rise of the Galactic Empire, but he can do more after that.

And for his plan, he needs a stronger force!

Because when the Galactic Empire is established, there will be no cover for the battle between him and Darth Sidious!

Darth Sidious is getting stronger day by day, Darth Malthael can sense all this from the dark side, and he is using the Jedi Order to make himself stronger.

Coruscant is now almost the center of the dark side of the entire galaxy!

Darth Sidious occupies the right time, the right place, and the general trend, but Darth Malthael has only inheritance...

Korriban is the inheritance.

The legacy of the dark side, the legacy of the Sith!

The power of death will open the door to this inheritance for him!

Go to the peak of darkness, and then explore, the essence of the original force! The essence of life!

So, he came to Korriban, to this place of destiny.

However, speaking so detachedly, when the communication from the political center of the Confederacy of the Independent Galaxy came, Darth Malthael still had to return to Tang Xiao's identity and return to this secular world—at least for the time being.

In fact, he had already spoken to Count Dooku before Ainle-Tim gave him the communication. This is a scandal in the political arena of the Confederacy of the Independent Galaxy - Mina Bontry, the representative of the Onderon Galaxy, was actually involved in a planetary rebellion and was arrested.

If other people were involved in the planet's rebellion, it would have been impossible for Tang Xiao and Earl Dooku to cause trouble, but Mina Bontry had a special status after all.

She was one of the main advocates of the peace advocacy movement of the Confederation of Independent Star Systems half a year ago, and she continued to promote peace negotiations in the Confederation Congress.

However, that negotiation ended because of some unspoken reasons between the two parties. The Galactic Republic refused the confederation’s representative to visit as an independent regime, and the Independent Galaxy Confederation also refused to make concessions. The name dispute seemed to be just a title, but in fact it is related to the fundamentals of the administration and the legitimacy of the regime on both sides.

At that time, Tang Xiao actually saved her life secretly, otherwise, if the development of the original plot was followed, Earl Dooku would have assassinated her without hesitation in order to prevent the peace process.

Then that assassination also put Mina's son, Lukes Bontry, on a completely different path, so I won't say much here.

Mina Bontry, who shined in that peace movement, later moved closer to the ring faction of Senator Ainle-Tim and became a member of it.

This scandal has directly affected the political status of the Huanpai!
