1320: Pandora's Box

20BBY, March 7.

This is a very important time point in the history of the Galactic Republic, because on this day, the Galactic Parliament passed the bill with a slight advantage of about 1.5 percentage pointsthe "Act of the Total Abolition of the Local Defense Fleet System".

According to this law, the local defense fleets of all planets and star regions will be fully owned by the Republic Navy, and the Republic Navy will set up these fleets, dispatch officers, and manage them in a unified manner.

These planets are naturally unwilling, because everyone knows that surrendering their own local defense fleet means that their life and death are in the hands of the Galactic Republic. Now the Galactic Republic said it well, as long as there is something to do, the Republic Fleet will arrive as soon as possible. Anyway, after a while, I am afraid that my planet will be turned upside down and I will not see a hair of the Republic Fleet!

But the problem is that it is mandatory for the Galactic Republic to implement this law. Although the law does not clearly state what will happen if you refuse to hand over the local defense fleet, but in fact this is the most terrifying, because you don't even know what the Galactic Republic will do to you!

After a period of stalemate, the planet Kuat and Corellia took the lead and handed over the local defense fleet to the Galactic Republic. Next, most of the planets also handed over the command of the local defense fleet.

But that's a completely different story.

Because of the rich and powerful existence of Planet Kuat and Planet Corellia, even if there is no local defense fleet, they can still organize a huge fleet in the name of the **** fleet. What's more, their local defense fleet was handed over, but the Republic only gave a navy number, and the garrison was still in place, and even the commander hadn't been changed!

However, things are not so good for other planets. Their defensive fleets were immediately transferred away, and then gathered at the nearest galaxy army headquarters to form one after another. Absolutely huge fleet.

With such a new force, preliminary statistics show that there are at least 10,000 large and small warships. The Supreme Strategic Command of the Galactic Republic is naturally full of joy, and immediately launched another wave of offensive without hesitation!

Following the direction of the previous six-way army, the legions of the Republic, which were reinforced by a large number of warships, once again launched an attack on the control area of the Federation of Independent Galaxy.

But at the same time, those planets that had lost their protection were almost immediately attacked by interstellar pirates. After all, the planets capable of forming a local defense fleet are basically planets with affluent finances and sufficient production capacity.

It was as if the door to the bank vault had suddenly been opened and the security had been removed, and the results were self-evident.

And as expected, the Republic Navy's request for help from these planets is very indifferent, basically it is a few perfunctory words, and then said that the fleet is currently busy fighting against the separatists and saving the galaxy, and there is no time to come here for the time being. You can find a hired Soldiers and the like.

At most, less than half of the planets received limited support from the Republic's fleet, and the fleet that came to support them was in a hurry, and left quickly after repelling a wave of pirates, ignoring whether the pirates would make a comeback.

However, the major media in the Republic seized on these few typical examples, and then combined with the victory news that came from the front line soon, they trumpeted this wise and powerful decision of the great speaker Schiff Palpatine. Some shameless media even compared this bill with the Rusan reform!

We must know that no matter how outdated the Lusan reform was, it was after all a treaty that brought long-term stability and prosperity to the Republic for thousands of years. In many cases, the Rusan reform cannot be denied its achievements in peacetime because of its ineffectiveness in wartime.

And those media compared Palpatine's perverse law with Rusan's reform, which is completely embarrassing. At the same time, this is actually Palpatine's start to build momentum for his own rule and authority.

In the two years since the war broke out, Palpatine has changed from his previous humility, and has begun to be labeled by many media and even congressmen as the "greatest speaker in the history of the Republic."

However, after confiscating the local defense fleets of those planets, the Republic did usher in a wave of offensive climax in the following period of time. The large fleet of the Republic broke through the defenses of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies in one fell swoop, conquering hundreds of planets in succession.

Riding on the momentum of this victory, Schiff Palpatine also kept moving. He promulgated many decrees, many of which were to integrate the power of the Republic, crack down on bureaucrats, and rectify the people's livelihood, and put another layer of warmth on himself Tag of.

However, many people, especially the Jedi Knights, did not notice that among these decrees, there is an inconspicuous decree hidden - "Decree on Respect for Freedom of Belief and Racial Customs".

In this decree that seems to break down the barriers between the major races in the Galactic Republic and hope that all races will live in peace and respect each other, in fact, various word games are used in the decree to implicitly imply a meaning

The so-called Sith and Jedi are also just different beliefs about the Force.

But the current Jedi Knights really don't have the energy to chew on words in such a decree, and they have enough troubles of their own.

During the offensive and defensive battles on the planet Sevtok, the ground troops were still unable to open up the situation. The combat effectiveness of those natural soldiers was not comparable to that of the clone soldiers, and they suffered heavy losses in such tough battles. So the Jedi Master Desairan who commanded the fleet personally signed the order and launched an orbital bombing on the planet Seve-Tuk!

The tragic orbital bombing caused tens of millions of civilian casualties! This number is mainly because the population of this planet is not large, and the cities are very sparse. If it is a densely populated and developed planet, the number of casualties will reach a terrible level!

The Jedi Knights were very dissatisfied with this ~www.mtlnovel.com~ because Desairan's approach broke an unspoken rule that the Jedi Knights have always abided by.

Although the Republic issued a proposal to allow the fleet to carry out orbital bombing with the consent of the Jedi Knights accompanying the army, almost all the Jedi Knights chose to refuse to sign on the orbital bombing proposal.

This is why there have been very few orbital bombings so far.

But now, Desairan has set an extremely bad precedent!

He was quickly recalled by the Jedi Order, and accepted interrogation, investigation, and confinement within the Jedi Order.

However, the Pandora's box that has been opened cannot be closed again.
