Chapter 2083 Unrestricted Breakthrough War
2083, unrestricted attack war
The outer ring of the Milky Way, the capital of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Lasax IV.
"Have you reached an agreement with the Hutts? Your Excellency Tang Yu." Count Dooku said as he made an invitation gesture to Tang Yu in front of a table of extremely sumptuous dishes.
"Actually, I have heard from Zhou Qing before that you want to entrust him to kidnap Jabba the Hutt's son. But I think it is better to use some other methods than to use this method." Tang Yu said.
"What did the Hutt say?" Count Dooku asked.
"They are willing to maintain an absolutely neutral position and open their hyperspace routes to us, but correspondingly, they will also impose the same conditions on the Republic." Tang Yu replied.
After Count Dooku thought for a while, he nodded slightly and said: "You helped us solve a big problem, Your Excellency Tang Yu. After the glorious victory on the Jabim planet, I originally wanted to visit the Guardian planet again, but I heard that
You went to Nar Shaddaa, and you actually brought me such a surprise. On behalf of all the participating systems in the Confederation of Independent Systems, I must express my most sincere thanks to you."
"This is what I should do." Tang Yu nodded and replied.
"But there is a hidden danger in this solution." Count Dooku changed the topic and said: "In the eyes of the Hutts, everything has a price, so can you really believe that they will keep their promises? In other words,
What if when our main fleet passes through Hutt space, they are suddenly bribed by the Republic? Maybe we will have many ways to make the Hutts miserable, but if we lose this war, then everything will be empty talk
."
Tang Yu nodded thoughtfully. As a veteran politician, Count Dooku's thoughts were indeed more comprehensive and he faced the darkness of human nature more directly.
Seeing Tang Yu's appearance, Count Dooku continued: "The reason why I chose to kidnap Jabba's son was mainly to convey a message that we have the power to threaten their safety. And to tell them straightforwardly, who can
He is the boss. And Ziro is actually one of the chess pieces we can use, which allows us to intervene in the internal affairs of the Hutts more conveniently. It is actually a loss to hand him over to the Hutt Council directly. But my
This plan may indeed have shortcomings, but when we deal with the Hutts, we should follow this idea instead of trying to negotiate fairly with them."
"In other words, the agreement I reached with the Hutt has made us somewhat constrained? Moreover, I have actually underestimated Ziro's value?" Tang Yu asked humbly.
"In terms of the results, yes. But in terms of the process, what you did was not wrong. On the contrary, it was better than what we had to do. The reason why I say this to you is because as the war unfolds, the guardian
The planet has brought me more and more surprises, and I am even looking forward to the fact that you can become my successor, and one day bear the banner of the Confederation of Independent Systems from my hands, and fight for freedom and justice in the galaxy.
Therefore, I hope you can see further and do better." Count Dooku said.
Tang Yu was a little surprised by these words. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether Count Dooku was digging a hole for him or something. He could only say politely: "You are too flattering, Count Dooku. I also said that, since
If I decide to participate in this war, victory is my only goal."
"Very good. In fact, this is where your guardian planet is stronger than other planets. Maybe your technological and industrial levels are not developed, but compared to these galaxies that have been at peace for thousands of years, your planet is
One army is at war. Moreover, you have just joined the galaxy's economic system, and your planet is actually self-sufficient. These two points alone make the Guardian Planet the most powerful interstellar fortress." Count Dooku said.
Tang Yu didn't object to this. He smiled and replied: "So I don't mind a war, or in other words, I'm quite looking forward to it."
Count Dooku nodded approvingly and said: "Because you successfully reached an agreement with the Hutts and won the Battle of Jabim, I decided to reward you. I will let the Trade Federation give your planet more help.
Let your industry and technology develop faster, and I will give you a dock capable of producing 300-meter-class warships. At the same time, I will officially appoint you as a Confederate general, and officially transfer the command of the G theater to you.
, Admiral Trench will serve as your deputy."
This reward was not unimportant, and it was also what Tang Yu needed most. Needless to say, the importance of a shipyard capable of producing 300-meter-long warships, and handing over the command of the G theater to him gave him great convenience.
Because no matter how close Tang Yu is to General Trench, after all, Trench was the commander of the G theater before. He had the power to mobilize various forces in Tang Yu's hands, which made Tang Yu very uncomfortable.
.But now, this problem has been solved.
Count Dooku continued: "Actually, the recent war situation is not optimistic for us. The Republic launched a counterattack near the planet Quill, and General Grievous's fleet happened to be in the Falin system near the Quill system.
He has already engaged the Republic's fleet. However, the Republic's offensive is very determined and has invested more than 30 cruisers. At present, it seems that General Grievous is likely to lose this battle. You know that the biggest problem between us and the Republic is
Where is the difference?"
Tang Yu frowned and asked, "Where is it?"
"The gap between battleships!" Count Dooku said: "There are two shipyards at the core of the Galactic Republic, Quart Power Shipyard and Rendili Interstellar Power Company. They are also the best shipbuilders in the entire galaxy. They have been there for thousands of years.
They began building warships for the Republic a long time ago. Therefore, their warship designs are entirely for war, and thousands of years of accumulation have made their shipbuilding technology far superior to other companies."
"But in contrast, business giants such as the Trade Federation and the Interstellar Banking Association also have good shipbuilding capabilities, but the warships they build are all for commercial service. For example, the Generosity-class frigate, the Interstellar Banking Association
The main purpose of designing and building this kind of battleship is to intimidate those who owe them money, or to protect their merchant fleet. It is not an excellent fleet-class battleship. The Rookery Hook-class battleship of the Trade Federation is
Not to mention, just five years ago, these warships were actually just cargo ships."
"So even if the numbers are similar, the combat effectiveness of the Republic fleet is much stronger than our fleet. A fleet composed of just one type of ship, the Jaeger-class cruiser, can compete with our Defiant-class destroyers, Generosity-class frigates, and Providence-class cruisers.
Compared with the composite fleet, it is often stronger. In other words, in fact, we are always at a disadvantage on the cosmic battlefield." Count Dooku said.
On this point, Tang Yu and the others also came to a similar conclusion in their judgment before coming to this world. He nodded and waited for Count Dooku's next words.
There was a hint of coldness in Count Dooku's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "The privateer bill proposed by Congressman Peacock reminded me, and I decided to use the power in our hands to launch an unrestricted attack war within the territory of the Republic.
!!We will launch an attack on every spacecraft in every waterway, regardless of whether they are civilian or military spacecraft!!"
Tang Yu frowned and said: "Actually, the Privateer Act is still continuing, and those star thieves are also constantly attacking the Republic's spacecraft. Although the effect has begun to decline since the war started, after all, it is the star thieves who execute these. Once it is carried out by
