The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

344. The Battle of Naboo (1)

Cato Neimoidia (Cato Neimoidia), one of the oldest colonies of the Neimoidians, is also the colony closest to their home planet, the planet Neimoidia.

For thousands of years of development, Cato-Neimoidia has always existed as a secret fortress of the Neimoidians, and only the most powerful people are eligible to live on this planet.

In the city of Zarra, the capital of the planet Cato Neimoidia, the Governor of the Trade Federation, Newt Gunley, and his most trusted confidant, Rune Harkle, are conducting the final secret meeting.

In the holographic projection in front of them, a person covered by a black cloak is standing there with a slightly hunched body. With a hooked nose, a thin chin, and a distorted smile, he is the Sith Lord Darth. - Sidious!

"The time has come! It's time to show our strength on the planet Naboo, and then, to deal a fatal blow to the Galactic Republic! Hahahaha..." Sidious smiled sinisterly.

Rune-Harkle said timidly: "But... But this is no better than before. If we really want to send troops to attack the planet Naboo, the Galactic Republic will be overly stimulated, and we will not be able to eat it."

"Ignorant and stupid cowards!! I have paved the way for you so much. If the dispute in the Dovala mining area hadn't been for me to come forward, you would still be able to stay in the high position of this trade alliance? Now is the best time, don't step on it Take this last step, and you will always be just an ordinary company under the Republic!" Sidious snorted coldly.

"However, we do have to consider the reaction of the Republic, and even the response of the Jedi Order. This time is no different from the previous Enterprise Alliance on the planet Marathal. This time, you want us to send ground forces to occupy the planet Naboo!" Newt Gunley had no idea.

"The Republic, Phoenix-Valorum, and the Jedi Order have all been bound by me in various ways! The Battle of the Marathal Fjord and the terrorist attack on the Eliadu Business Summit made the Judicial Fleet never to be seen again. Support Phines-Valorum, and after the Jedi Order suffered heavy losses from the Injori riots, they would not have the guts to continue interfering in such a thing! The civil war on the planet Ceria, even Ki-Adi-Mundi The Master's daughter was arrested and killed, did you see the Jedi order move?" Sidious said.

Newt Gunley breathed a sigh of relief, and said cautiously: "Then... let's... move, do it?"

"Do it! Now! The new queen of the planet Naboo is just a young girl! In the face of your invasion, she will only hide at home and cry!! If you don't do it now, when will you wait!? Block the trade route in the middle of the galaxy, that is Now!!" Sidious suddenly roared, and with a powerful sound wave, the things on the conference table were blown away, and Newt Gunley and others were also overturned.

"Idiot!" Sidious cursed and cut off the communication directly.

Rune Harkle got up from the ground, straightened his tall hat, ran over to help Newt Gunley up, and said with lingering fear: "Lord Gunley, is this the Lord of the Sith? It's terrible. ! Are we really going to work with such a horrible person?"

Newt Gunley slapped Lun Harkle's hand away with a slap, got up by himself, gritted his teeth and said, "We'd better not provoke this lord, and you must understand that we can stand in this position because of him Lead the Trade Union. If he is dissatisfied with us... Since he can use the Eriadu Business Summit to kill the previous governor and help us come to power, he can let this happen again!"

"Then how about we don't send ground troops, but just send the fleet to block it?" Rune-Harkle asked tremblingly.

"Go assemble the fleet!! Fill me with robots in LH-3210!!" Persimmon squeezed softly, and Newt Gunley yelled at Harkle, then as if comforting himself, he said to himself Yu said: "Occupy the planet Naboo, then all the plasma mines on the planet will be mine! We can also control the trade routes around the planet Naboo! Yes! Yes! That's it!"

He slammed his fist on the table, turned on the communicator and said fiercely: "All fleets, according to the scheduled plan, depart after 24 standard hours!!"

...

Central star sector of the Milky Way, planet Naboo, outer space.

Without any warning, the white light kept flashing, and a large number of large spaceships jumped out of the hyperspace and suddenly appeared in the space!

These spaceships are very huge, and all of them are of the same model—an annular LH-3210 large cargo ship!

This kind of cargo ship is in the shape of a ring with a length of 3170 meters and a width of 3009 meters, with a huge spherical hull with a diameter of 1029 meters in the center.

But what is frightening is that some of them were originally cargo ships, but now they have installed a large number of turrets on them, protecting themselves like hedgehogs. And on the spherical hull in the middle, a high-power signal transmission tower is installed for combat use.

Among the 60 LH-3210 cargo ships, only about 10 were armed models equipped with turrets and signal launch towers. These armed cargo ships were hidden in the fleet, creating the illusion that only cargo ships came.

These cargo ships immediately surrounded the entire planet along the equator of Naboo in batches, and then from the ring-shaped hull around the cargo ships, densely packed vulture robot fighters that looked like bee swarms flew out, tens of thousands of them! !

The terrifying situation made all the merchant fleets entering and leaving the planet Naboo shudder and dare not move. Although it seems that all the cargo ships are coming, the huge hull of these cargo ships brings a great sense of oppression, coupled with the threat of tens of thousands of vulture robot fighters, no one thinks that they have the ability to stop this terrifying fleet !

Then, coming to the battlefield in person, Newt Gunley, the governor of the trade union in the flagship, switched on the public channel and broadcast to all the surrounding spaceships: "Notify all spaceships traveling to and from the planet Naboo, because of the breach of contract by the planet Naboo, and the The Galactic Republic’s protest against the illegal taxation in the free trade zone, and now the planet Naboo has been blocked by our trade alliance. This is a legal protest, and I hope everyone understands and leaves in time.”
