Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

Chapter 601: The Next Step

Chapter 601: The Next Step

In the following time, the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems are still fighting hard, and the flames of war have spread to Hundreds of Planets.

But the battle of these Hundreds of Planets is just a direct confrontation between the Republic and the Confederacy. In fact, because of the outrageous independence of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the launch of a civil war, most of the Planets in the Galaxy had internal struggles.

In the 25,000-year history of the Galactic Republic, there are countless contradictions left over. The stage of the founding of the Republic has never been peaceful, in other words, in the 25,000-year history, the real peace is only the most recent 1,000 years.

Eternal War, Infinity War, Hyperspace War, and two Sith Wars, these are just Super Wars throughout the Galaxy, not to mention countless local wars and even armed conflicts. The people who died and the people who were injured in this process can no longer be measured by numbers.

how huge the economy of the entire galaxy is, countless families and classes have risen, and countless families and classes have declined; countless people have become rich, countless people have gone bankrupt, and many more people are struggling with exploitation and work. No one can calculate how much hatred and sorrow there is in it.

However, the strength of the Galactic Republic has suppressed all these contradictions. With the continuous development of Technology and Civilization, the cost of conflict outbreaks is also higher. In the era of Cold Weapons, you can rise up with a single call, but in the era of Hot Weapons, there is already an insurmountable gap between the power of the State Machine and the Civilians. Even in the Interstellar Era, how can you rise up without Warships?

But no matter how suppressed it is, these contradictions still exist, and they become stronger and stronger as they continue to brew. The Galactic Republic at that time was like a balloon filled with flammable gas. As the gas increased, the balloon became bigger and bigger, and it was in danger of collapsing at any time.

Darth Plagueis and Darth Sidious carved countless cracks into the tough shell of the balloon of the Republic in the previous nearly 80 years. They did not create conflicts but intensified contradiction. The power of a fire does not depend on the size of the match but on the size of the flammable material ignited by the match.

In the end, Count Dooku's Separatism ignited a fire on these cracks spewing flammable gas.

This fire eventually burned the entire Galactic Republic, but Darth Sidious, the behind-the-scenes operator of the fire, did not expect what level of existence he ignited, so the fire continued to burn, and eventually the Galactic Empire he built was also burned to ashes.

Even the later New Republic was baked by the hot embers of the fire, but in the end, it couldn't bear it and became the third victim...Of course, this is a later story.

When the flames of the Civil War were ignited, it was not just a direct confrontation between the two behemoths, the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, but more, it was the struggle between different classes and factions within countless Planets.

Although the Republic and the Confederacy are only fighting on Hundreds of Planets, in the entire Galaxy, there are as many as 14,000 Planets where Civil Wars and Coups broke out!!

The regimes inside these Planets have undergone many changes due to this Civil War, and the struggle between Pro-Confederacy Factions, Pro-Republic Factions, and even Neutral Factions who want to stay out of it has also been detonated. Taking this opportunity, they have made their conflicts public.

The saliva in the Senate rose to hand-to-hand combat, armed parades, bloody suppression, impact on the Planetary Administrative Center, armed uprisings, and even provinces on some Planets directly declared independence and joined the Republic or the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

If the direct war between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems has caused Tens of Millions of deaths, then the number of deaths caused by these armed riots and even Civil Wars can already be calculated in the Hundreds of Millions.

You know, it's only been a month since the war broke out!

With the intensification of the war, the control area between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems is changing almost every day, not only the Star Map in units of Planets but also changes on each Planet. Perhaps the main continent of a certain Planet announced today that it would secede from the Republic and join the Confederacy, but tomorrow it would be wiped out by the Republic's Local Defense Fleet that rushed there.

With the influence of Corporate Giants such as the Trade Federation and the Interstellar Banking Clan, many Planets in the Inner Rim and even the Core Worlds are also swinging between the Republic and the Confederacy, which makes the situation even more complicated.

Even the Supreme Strategic Command of the Republic cannot accurately deploy the existing occupation, they can only determine the target of the war to specific people.

Count Dooku is the number one target to be captured and even eliminated.

In these countless battles, many names began to appear in the sight of both sides, such as Severance Tann who captured Sarapin with lightning on the Confederacy side, Matt Horn who severely damaged the Republic Fleet in Bespin, and General Grievous who was in command of the overall situation.

There are also many famous names on the Republic side, such as the Jedi Master Shen-Jon who recovered Sarapin within a day, and the Mytaranor sector, which prevented the Confederacy of Independent Systems from advancing even an inch, and even paid a heavy price, and Wilhuff Tarkin, Governor of the 18th Legion.

Gold always shines. Some people are born for war. In peaceful times, they have no sense of existence. Once war breaks out, they will find their most suitable stage and shine brightly.

However, during this period of time, Dawn seemed very calm. After the Battle of Bespin ended, the Fleet A and Fleet B of the Fourth Civilization calmed down. Under the leadership of Matt Horner, Fleet A continued to consolidate Bespin's Defense Line and began to mine a large amount of materials for the next war use.

Fleet B continued to station on Noe'ha'on, confronting the Grans on Kinyen, and threatening the Solid Defense Line built by the 19th Legion of the Republic.

Confrontation is confrontation, but they did not take the initiative to launch an attack.

On June 27th, Fleet A and Fleet B quietly completed their defense change without anyone knowing about it. In order to improve the secrecy, this change of defense did not change the Warships but changed the personnel. After that, according to the structure of the two Fleets, a small-scale Warship transfer was carried out.

Now, Matt Horner is on Noe'ha'on, continuing to confront the 19th Legion of Governor Sulamar, and Fleet B is ready to start the next plan - to attack Christophsis!

On June 29th, the Magistrate of the Corporate Alliance, who coveted Christophsis, Passel Argente finally received an emergency loan from the Chairman of the Interstellar Banking Clan San Hill, and through the guarantee of this loan, Sy Myrth sent a Fleet of 30 Hiigaran-class Battlecruisers to the assembly point chosen by the Corporate Alliance, and the war was imminent.

On July 1, the Kerkoidens on Christophsis suddenly broke out a large-scale riot. Their Leaders made a formal appeal to the Planetary Council of Christophsis, demanding that the Kerkoidens be self-governing and decided to join the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

On July 2, the Christophsis Planetary Council categorically rejected this rude request, and the atmosphere between the two sides began to become tense.
