The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

1374. The Current Situation of Planet Onderon

On the planet Onderon, before the war broke out, Tang Xiao had already started to build large-scale factories and interstellar docks on this planet through the relationship of the Interstellar Banking Association at that time.

At the same time, Earl Dooku also let Sanji Rush launch a coup to replace the old king Ramses Dundup, which completely turned the planet towards separatism. And the factory on this planet at that time was jointly built by Tyron Heavy Industries and the Interstellar Banking Association, and the scale was very large.

In the next few years, the planet Onderon stood firmly on the side of separatism, and the Galactic Republic also had many scruples about this planet in the inner ring. , so the Republic still hopes to focus on peaceful evolution.

After all, at that time, Planet Onderon was only ostensibly inclined to separatism in terms of political inclination, but there were no very obvious acts of war. However, when the Galactic Republic discovered that the Behemoth-class battlecruisers were actually being produced for the separatists on the planet Onderon, they realized that something was wrong.

It's just that the war was already in full swing at that time, and there were still illusions about the internal power-seizure evolution of the rebels who supported the planet's homeland, so the Galactic Republic has not been able to remove this thorn in its side.

In fact, it was because of greed—the calculation of the Galactic Republic at the time was that if the actions of the rebel army could be successful, then they might still have the opportunity to receive the complete production line of the Behemoth-class battlecruiser. If this can be achieved If it is, then it is indeed a huge improvement for the Galactic Republic, which has been suffering from warship performance.

To be honest, if Tang Xiao knew about the plan of the Galactic Republic, he would definitely sneer and tell the Galactic Republic: You're thinking of Tao Zi (please read Tao Zi in English).

For the planet Onderon, because of the huge investment of the Interstellar Banking Association and the huge factory complex and interstellar shipyard built by Tyron Heavy Industries on Dexen, one of the four satellites of the planet, this provides the planet with numerous Millions of jobs and very good revenue.

At least in the past, the Ondron planet, with a population of only 4 million, never imagined that it would have such a huge income one day, and now the population has skyrocketed to about 20 million, which has further improved the strength of the planet.

This has allowed the Onderon planet to develop rapidly. In addition, the Onderon planet, as one of the inner ring planets, naturally has an excellent industrial and technological foundation. It is mainly reflected in the fact that the planet Ondron originally had factories capable of processing some high-precision parts, and also had a very complete higher education system that could provide a large number of excellent talents.

Tang Xiao, who was eager to establish his own peripheral industrial system at that time, didn't think too much, and directly finalized the planet in the inner ring to develop and produce the Behemoth-class battlecruiser.

After all, if you choose an outer ring planet, on the one hand, you may be targeted by Earl Dooku, who was still in love with Darth Sidious at the time. On the other hand, most of the planets in the outer ring are too weak in industry and scientific research. If they are left in the outer ring, they are safe. However, the advent and mass production of the Behemoth-class battlecruiser will definitely be delayed for a year or two.

At least Tang Xiao's plan at the time was to hope that the planet Onderon could be like the Yago-Dur planet of the Ji Wen people, and it could jump back and forth between the republic and separatism as much as possible, and deal with it for a while.

His plan was half successful and half failed.

Half of the success is that the Onderon planet has indeed developed the behemoth-class battlecruiser under the eyes of the Galactic Republic, and it is much earlier than expected, and both Earl Dooku and the Galactic Republic are concerned about this. I didn't notice it—it was dark under the lights, and Planet Onderon was really inconspicuous before that.

Moreover, the Onderon planet also produced dozens of prototype ships, and some of them even participated in the battle on the Kristofsis planet in the early days of the war.

And half of the failure is that now Tang Xiao has to face the crisis that Ondron planet is very likely to be captured by the Galactic Republic.

For the people of Onderon, their hostility towards the Galactic Republic was also evident. As a planet with a good industrial foundation, but sparsely populated and undersized, Planet Onderon did not enjoy many benefits as an inner ring planet. On the contrary, they themselves were also exploited by the big capitalists of the Galactic Republic.

So after Tyron Heavy Industries settled in, many people on Planet Onderon accepted employment. After all, manufacturing warships is not just a matter of one or two industries. This is a huge system involving dozens of fields and hundreds of millions of processes. Just such a warship is enough to make the entire planet revolve around this production line.

Therefore, the people on Onderon Planet received the salary of Tyrann Heavy Industries, enjoyed benefits, and experienced the improvement of their status in interstellar affairs. Naturally, they did not have a good impression of the Galactic Republic.

The more deadly point is the rebellion movement led by Saw-Gerrera and Steele-Gerrera on the planet Onderon.

Because of the wrong strategy, So-Gerrera became more and more extreme. Their rebel movement not only failed to overthrow the separatist government, but also caused a large number of civilian casualties and destruction of livelihood facilities due to numerous terrorist attacks and sabotage operations. , which turned them into street rats instead.

Later, under deliberate propaganda, Saw Gerrera's rebel movement was portrayed as terrorists supported by the Galactic Republic, which made the people on the planet more hostile to the Galactic Republic.

After the design severely damaged the rebel movement, General Kalani, the super tactical robot sent by Earl Dooku to the planet Onderon, publicly executed Mina Buntry, a member of parliament who was suspected of secretly collaborating with the rebel movement, and killed the planet. The regent, the already disgraced Sanji Rush, claimed that he had died trying to assassinate former king Ramses Dundup.

After that, General Kalani publicly announced the release of Ramses Dundup, who was imprisoned by Sanji Rush, and publicly invited the former king Dundup to return to the throne of the king. This series of actions shows the wisdom of General Kalani. He is no longer an ordinary super tactical robot. He is the only one among many tactical robots that has developed self-awareness.

Ramses Dundup understood that General Kalani's plan was to use his popularity to bring Onderon to a showdown with the Galactic Republic, so he did nothing but disappear from public view.

He knew that whether he refused or agreed, it was a wrong choice.

But General Kalani's actions did not stop. He announced that the planet Onderon had entered a state of military control, and then...

Fully prepare for battle!
