The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1359. Mandalorian political turmoil

At the same time that the referendum on Mandalore started, Earl Dooku connected to Tang Xiao's communication.

On the other side of the communication, his expression was solemn. Obviously, the scheming Earl Dooku, who has been in the political arena for a long time, could not have imagined that this matter was a pitfall from beginning to end.

Similarly, Tang Xiao's complexion was also very ugly.

Even though Earl Dooku and Tang Xiao don't know what's going on on Mandalorian now, it doesn't prevent them from instantly understanding the huge conspiracy behind the drastic changes on Mandalore.

On the surface, the Mandalore planet is a referendum to join the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, but in fact, they did not notify the Confederacy in advance, and the location of the planet Mandalore is simply beyond the reach of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies. No fleet can pass.

What's more, even if it is possible to send a fleet there, can they send it?

The current situation in this galaxy, the countless races and countless planets in the entire galaxy, are all looking at the warring parties. Maybe they are now joining one party for some reasons and certain interests, but it does not mean that they will not join the other party when the conditions are right.

Therefore, both sides actually have to face.

To put it bluntly, it is not only to fight wars, but also to constantly carry out political shows, and at the same time to constantly discredit the other side.

Therefore, this sudden referendum on Mandalore, although it claims to join the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, is actually useless to the Confederation, and it is all negative!

First, the planet Mandalorian is the leader of the Alliance of Neutrals, and there are more than 1,500 galaxies following them to engage in neutrality. This is a huge force, even the Galactic Republic does not dare to touch them easily. Because if these galaxies are moved in the future, if they start a riot, it will definitely lead to a terrible political accident.

Again, during the time of the Galactic Republic, the Republic made sense. What's the point? That is the principle of parliament, the principle of democracy. Perhaps in essence, the most powerful and richest planets still have the most say, but even they need to take care of the ideas of those planets that have no money or power. Of course, the premise is not to affect their core interests, but these poor planets generally can't touch this, so those rich and powerful planets will play this democratic game with them.

Therefore, once 1,500 neutral galaxies make trouble in the Galactic Republic's parliament, it is possible to resign the speaker Schiff Palpatine.

Therefore, during the period of the Galactic Republic, the correct rules of the game should be - first of all, I respect the position of you neutral planets, and then I will treat you on this basis. For example, secretly tampering with your transportation, trade, etc., making you neutral and uncomfortable, that's right.

Look again now. The planet Mandalorian suddenly announced that it would hold a referendum to secede from the Galactic Republic and join the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Then the result of this matter will inevitably lead to war—whether it must declare war on the Galactic Republic after joining the Confederacy, or the Galactic Republic will take the initiative to attack.

In this case, it is impossible for you, the Confederation of Independent Galaxies, to say that you did not make small moves behind your back! So the thing became, your Confederation of Independent Galaxies ran over to tease people's home galaxies, trying to drag them into the quagmire of war!

This is great fun. Once this matter is realized, the political image of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies will definitely plummet, and even some galaxies that sit on the wall or have an unstable stand will immediately go to the Galactic Republic.

Second, if the referendum on joining the planet Mandalorian is successful, then they declare to join the Confederacy of Independent Galaxies. Well, what about you Confederation of Independent Systems? People are throwing themselves into their arms, don't you express it? The fleet of the Galactic Republic must be on its way, but what about your Confederate reinforcements? If you don't give reinforcements, what will others think? I join you and you watch me die? It doesn't make sense!

But here lies the problem, how do you send reinforcements? Can't send it at all!

But others are going to say, you can't send reinforcements, why are you going to tease people? You want to flirt with others, only to find out that you don't have this ability when you enter the hotel and take off your pants?

So Earl Dooku chatted with Tang Xiao, mainly asking Tang Xiao if he knew what happened on Mandalore. Count Dooku always felt that if he did not do any big moves in this galaxy, then it must be Tang Xiao.

This has a lot of previous convictions. Anyway, it has been several times before, and every time it is Dawn Star.

But this time, Tang Xiao was really wronged. He himself was at a loss and didn't know what happened on Mandalore. And he won't tell Count Dooku, though he doesn't know what happened on Mandalorian, but he can be sure that Darth Tenebrous did it.

It's best not to let Count Dooku know about the existence of Darth Tenebrous now. In other words, Earl Dooku can know, but Tang Xiao can't tell him.

So Tang Xiao told Earl Dooku in a very 'Force' style tone, he felt that behind the planet Mandalore, there was another darkness waking up, and the planet Mandalore might just be the beginning, and we must be vigilant against that direction.

And he told Count Dooku that he had sent Jango Fett and several other capable men to the planet Mandalorian, telling them to stop anything that happened on the planet no matter what. But so far, there is still no news from there.

Count Dooku turned off the communication suspiciously and walked away.

Soon, the Confederation of Independent Galaxies issued a public statement, stating that the Confederation was unaware of and unwilling to see the referendum on Mandalorian. The Confederation of Independent Galaxies absolutely respects and supports the neutral position of Mandalore and the Alliance of Neutral Galaxies, and will never do anything against the neutral galaxies that violates the law of neutrality.

Earl Dooku also delivered a speech in person. He called on the Grand Duke of Mandalore, Satine Kriz, to remain rational in this situation, stop the referendum, continue his neutral position, and let the neutral galaxy alliance become the leader of this war-torn galaxy. The last piece of pure land in the galaxy.

This is very beautiful, and it gave the Alliance of Neutrals a big boost.

Then he pointed the finger at the Galactic Republic, and directly poured dirty water on the Galactic Republic's face, saying that the referendum was actually the Galactic Republic behind the scenes, and he actually wanted to create an excuse for the occupation of Mandalore by force.

He also said that whoever's fleet arrives first on the planet Mandalorian will be behind the referendum!

And this sentence, said extremely fiercely and extremely cruelly, fully reflected the political means and political vision of Earl Dooku, an old political fox.

He went to discuss with Tang Xiao, not to discuss countermeasures, but just to understand the situation and determine what happened on the Mandalorian planet.

In fact, in terms of politics, the current Tang Xiao is far less sophisticated than Earl Dooku.

As for the Galactic Republic, they will definitely not stop their footsteps. The main fleet of the Second Galaxy Army is already on its way, and it will never stop!
