The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

345. The Battle of Naboo (2)

The planet Naboo, the capital city of Sid.

The Minister of Guards walked quickly to the palace, as far as the king's hall.

Now the entire planet Naboo, including Sid City, is in a state of complete martial law, basically three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry. Facing the blatant invasion of the Trade Federation, Planet Naboo is doing its best to take precautions even if it is weak.

In the king's hall, the queen of planet Naboo, dressed in fine attire and with thick makeup on her face, was sitting on the throne. The queen's maids stood behind her. column sides.

Concern was written on everyone's face.

"Your Majesty! The Trade Alliance refuses to withdraw troops and refuses to negotiate. Their only request is for us to surrender unconditionally! And sign an even more unequal peace treaty!" The Minister of Security came to the Queen, shaking his head and sighing.

"Help me connect to the communication of the Trade Federation commander, and I will talk to him personally," said the queen.

The communicator was activated, the holographic projection flashed, and the projections of the Governor of the Trade Union, Newt Gunley, and his adjutant, Lune Harkle, appeared in front of him. The queen said blankly: "The current behavior of the Trade Union is a violation of the laws of the Republic! You must withdraw your troops immediately, otherwise the Republic will not tolerate your invasion!"

Newt Gunley pretended to be surprised, and said, "Oh? Invasion? Your Majesty, you should pay attention to your wording. There is no intrusion here. Everything is legal. We are serious businessmen and act according to the law."

"There is nothing in the constitution of the Republic that can support your barbaric invasion!"

"Oh, this matter has to be discussed by the Congress of the Republic, and your planet Naboo has nothing to say. Besides, it's because you broke the contract first."

"The unequal treaty signed by the former king Als-Veruna should have been invalidated with his abdication and suicide. Moreover, this treaty fundamentally violates the principles of fairness and justice of the Republic! The people of Planet Naboo will never Approved!"

"Then let's wait and see." After Newt Gunley said this coldly, he shut down the communication.

Queen Amidala stared in the direction of the communicator, and her expression was completely hidden by the thick makeup. After a moment of silence, she said: "Immediately report the situation here to the Council of the Republic. In addition, Put me through the communications of our Senator, Schiff Palpatine, immediately."

The holographic projection projects the image of Schiff Palpatine. He has a high hairline, his gray hair is neatly combed, his hook-like nose looks very energetic, and he always has a kind smile on his face.

He bowed to the queen and said: "Your Majesty, I have heard about what happened on the planet Naboo, and I have reported the situation to Speaker Phoenix-Valorum as soon as possible. Of course, if you If a formal call for help is issued in the name of the Queen of Planet Bu, I think the effect will be better."

"I hope that the Republic can stop the invasion of the Trade Alliance, and impose sanctions on them, and even take back their trade privileges." The queen said coldly.

Palpatine sighed, with a hesitant and lonely expression on his face, and then he said with a little embarrassment: "Okay, I will fight for this matter in the parliament."

"Please be sure to guarantee the Republic's position on this matter, because once our trade routes are cut off, our material reserves won't last long," said the Queen.

"Okay, my queen." Palpatine bowed again, and wanted to turn off the communication, but seemed to want to say something, but still turned into a sigh, and turned off the communication.

...

Trade Federation flagship command center.

Lun-Harkle looked at the blue planet Naboo through the porthole, and said with lingering fear: "It's okay, okay, the reaction of the planet Naboo is not very violent."

"The key is not on the planet Naboo, but on the Republic side!" Newt Gunley said, "We are standing still until the Queen of Planet Naboo comes to beg us!"

"But..." Lun Harkle was about to say something, but he looked around again, and after making sure that there was no one nearby, he whispered, "Didn't that lord want us to occupy the planet Naboo?"

"Sending ground troops to occupy them and besiege them to surrender are two different things!" Newt Gunley said with a gloomy face, "We can't block our own back! Once we send ground troops, then we are really violated the laws of the Republic."

"This is the best, this is the best." Lun Harkle said, patting his chest.

"Planet Naboo doesn't have many troops, they won't be able to support it." Newt Gunley snorted coldly, looked at the military observers of the fourth group sitting on the other side, and said with a smile: "This battle is destined to be fought." If you can’t get up, you can treat it as a vacation.”

Now the relationship between the Trade Federation and the Fourth Group is very good, and the Higra-class battlecruiser project that the two parties are cooperating to develop is also in progress, so Newt Gunley is naturally very polite to the representatives here.

The representative sent by the fourth group is Xiao Guanghua, the current commander-in-chief of the army. Tang Xiao also knows that the wars on Naboo are mainly ground wars. The battles in space are not fierce and have no reference value.

Xiao Guanghua nodded with a sullen face, and said politely, "In any case, we also need to learn from the trade alliance in order to improve our level in all aspects."

He had already cursed in his heart, if Tang Xiao hadn't ordered him not to interfere in the trade union's decision-making before he left, he would have even wanted to go up and beat up these two cowards!

You are invading, brother! And your 60 Luke Hook-class cargo ships are loaded with a full army of 6 million robots! At this time, instead of directly landing on the ground, capturing the opponent's supreme commander alive, so as to avoid more variables in Ye Changmeng, he still wants to wait for others to surrender?

Your opponent is a planet with a population of 4.5 billion! Even if we only count the human regime, there are more than one billion people. If you look around, you can find a large number of passionate men. How could it be so simple to submit?

And you guys are worried that ground invasion will break the law? Brother, what you are doing now is already shitting on the face of the Galactic Republic, okay? Whether there is such a thing as a ground invasion has already offended the Republic to the end! Why don't you end the battle quickly, cook rice with raw rice, and then slowly go to the parliament to argue, even thinking about whether it is illegal?

Newt Gunley also accepted Xiao Guanghua's compliments, and he said: "Actually, we also took this opportunity to learn how to use the robot army to fight. As you can see, the B-1 battle robot Due to the problem of computing speed, it does not perform well in large-scale combat and cooperation. Therefore, we converted the Luke Hook class cargo ship into a robot control ship, and our controllers coordinate the robot battles. At least in the previous In simulation tests, these rigid B-1 combat droids fared much better."

He looked at Xiao Guanghua, "Are you the army unit in charge of the Fourth Group? You also ordered 10 million B-1 combat robots from us before, so you need to take a good look at this battle and learn from it."

Xiao Guanghua nodded, but did not speak.

"Okay, since we don't have anything to do here, I brought some Shula fruit wine, which is a special product on the planet Naboo, just in time to wish us to occupy the planet Naboo, hahaha!" Lun Hakoo leaned over and said.
