The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

967、Secret investigation

"Investigate Rush Clovis, the representative of the Interstellar Banking Association?" Master Mace Windu frowned, "Compared to the Jedi Order, it should be more appropriate for the Republic's intelligence department to investigate this matter, right?"

Schiff Palpatine shook his head and said: "Unfortunately, no. The Interstellar Banking Association is too powerful, and to put it bluntly, they are too rich. Within the Republic, I cannot trust anyone other than the Jedi Order Anyone outside... because anyone may succumb under the power of money, only the Jedi Order is the one that I can trust wholeheartedly from the beginning to the end."

For this reasonable flattery, Master Windu is still very useful, he nodded and said: "Then, you should have some information, don't you?"

Unconsciously, Master Windu also used the honorifics. Compared with his extremely cold attitude towards everyone after his serious injury, he has softened a lot.

Palpatine said: "Actually, this is one of the reasons why I came to you."

He paused, hesitant, but still made up his mind, and continued: "Actually, I don't want to talk about this matter, but the matter of the Interstellar Banking Association is of great importance after all. The entire Galactic Republic will be shaken by it... so... oh...well, Senator Padmé Amidala once had an underground relationship with Senator Rush Clovis."

"Huh?" Master Windu's eyes widened, he had no idea that what the speaker said was such a gossip.

"Okay. So this matter, it's best to let Senator Padmé Amidala do it..." Schiff Palpatine said.

"But... what does this have to do with our Jedi Order? Can't you just say that to Padmé?" Master Windu asked.

Schiff Palpatine said very seriously: "Rush Clovis is definitely a separatist, so the investigation against him must be very difficult and even full of danger. I can't let Padmé Ami Senator Dara went into danger. However, I remember that before the war broke out, Anakin-Skywalker had protected her for a while, so I found an excuse to transfer Anakin back and continue to protect Padmé, so that No further suspicion will be aroused."

He went on to say: "And I really can't tell Padme directly about this matter, you know, Master Windu, after all, I am the speaker, and as the speaker, I must integrate every different voice in the parliament, and then make a decision Decision. This means that I must not have a position, or that I must not show my position to others. So if I come forward to find Padmé about this matter, maybe it will send some bad news to her message."

Master Windu nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, Your Excellency the Speaker. It's just that... now Anakin Skywalker is on the Tibrin planet..."

As he spoke, he sighed, "That's right... Tibring Planet."

Palpatine also sighed, shook his head and said, "Yes, Planet Tibrin..."

...

Just as Schiff-Palpatine and Master Windu were worried, the Tibring planet at this moment is simply a hell on earth!

After the planet's dictator, Suribran-Tu, was publicly executed by the priestesses, the Ishi-Tibu people on the planet Tiburin were in a state of frenzy.

They rejoiced at their liberation, cursed the Galactic Republic, and unleashed all the rage they had accumulated under the dictator's reign of terror.

Immediately after receiving assistance from the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the Ishi-Tibu people threw themselves into the battle against the Republic army.

At this moment, in the outer space of the planet, the fleet of the Galactic Republic is constantly entangled with the fleet of the Salarians. However, the warships of the Amarrian Empire used by the Salarians are like brown sugar, which cannot be broken or thrown away. After the new two doomsday battlefield-class battlecruisers were put into the battlefield, the strength of the fleets of the two sides began to shrink, so the stalemate continued like this.

On the ground battlefield, the 501st Legion led by Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano and the 41st Storm Legion led by Master Ron Schlien could only struggle.

On the planet, the vast number of B-1 battle robots of the Robot Legion of the Confederation of Independent Galaxy are constantly attacking the defense line of the clone army of the Republic. And they also got the J-1 heavy proton cannon from the Technology Union, which posed a great threat to the Republic's Cheer-class assault landing ship.

Anakin Skywalker launched a raid upon his arrival, destroying several J-1 heavy proton cannons, but soon the fallen Jedi Master Thora Balk, acting governor of the planet Tibrin, struck out himself.

In the lightsaber duel, Anakin Skywalker was defeated by Sola Balk. Fortunately, the cooperation of Ahsoka Tano and Ron Schlien was able to save the day, but the remaining J-1 heavy proton cannon There is no way to destroy it.

Their remaining two Cheer-class assault landing ships had to leave the attack range of the proton cannon, but at the same time, this also meant that they could no longer continue to provide ground fire support.

Afterwards, Ahsoka Tano got a nano-virus. Together with Anakin, she quietly implanted the virus into the main control computer of the Confederation Robot Legion in the Independent Galaxy, allowing the nano-virus to spread on the planet's network. Come.

This virus paralyzed most of the robots. After that, the clone army seized the opportunity to launch an attack and advanced tens of kilometers towards the capital of the planet Tibrin.

However, Sola Balk also responded quickly. Like Dawn Planet, he released the regulations of the Independent Galaxy Confederation not to allow the planet's local army to participate in the war, and agreed to the Ishi-Tibu people to directly participate in the war.

The fanatical Ishi-Tibu people quickly mobilized an army of one million and began to launch a crazy counterattack against the clone army. At this moment, the troops led by Anakin Skywalker have been suppressed again. After all, the number of enemies is too large, and Tibring Planet is very close to Dora Planet and Glenson Planet under the control of the Fourth Civilization. These two planets are now the key rear for their launch of the raid on the Eliadu galaxy.

Therefore, the Fourth Civilization provided the Ish-Tibu people with a large number of weapons, as well as some vehicle units including the Vulture chariot, the Warthog off-road vehicle, the M-9 Wolverine half-track anti-aircraft combat vehicle, and even 30 siege tanks are provided in the past!

Although the clone troopers are extremely elite, as long as their firepower is strong enough, the gap in combat effectiveness between the Ish-Tibs and them can be somewhat narrowed.

This battle was very brutal, and the Ishi-Tib people paid close to 60,000 casualties in just one week of offensive.

Finally, with the efforts of the computer experts of the Fourth Civilization, the nano-virus was cracked, and the robot army on Planet Tibulin began to act again!
