694. New nightmare
The battleship Fang eventually crashed into the planet Rendria.
After the battleship's hyperspace engine was blown up by the Jedi, General Grievous felt that the situation was irreversible, so he escaped from the battleship in his fighter "Soulless", but he still commanded the Venomous Fang remotely through communications. The final struggle.
After destroying the hyperspace engine, the Jedi Knights had no intention of getting entangled with the robots rushing towards them like a tide, and quickly ran out from the loading and unloading platform of the battleship.
I don’t know if it was his fate, but after the Jedi ran away, the robot repairmen swarmed up and repaired the hyperspace engine in a few minutes. Fortunately, Anakin Skywalker kept an eye on it and modified the data of the navigation computer before. When the Fang was about to start a hyperspace jump, the calculation went wrong and it eventually crashed directly into the uninhabited planet Rendria.
If General Grievous was still on the battleship at that time, there might be a chance to correct this mistake and save the precious super battleship, the Fang.
It's a pity that General Grievous is already on the way to escape at this moment.
For the Republic, the crisis on the Fang has finally been resolved, but another, even bigger haze continues to shroud everyone's hearts...
Plague!
I don't know which link went wrong. Even though Darth Malthael did not spread the news to the Galactic Republic, the news of this terrible battleship and the tragedy on the planet Trigalis still spread throughout the Republic.
This tragedy, in which more than 300,000 soldiers and civilians were killed and injured, was deliberately exaggerated by thoughtful people and struck a chord in the hearts of every citizen of the Republic. The 14,100-meter-long supership shrouded the Galactic Republic like a nightmare. The slowness and inability shown by the 15th Army of the Republic in the face of the sudden attack by the Plague has also become the target of criticism.
'How to defeat the Plague? 'The largest media in the Galactic Republic, the Republic Holographic News Network, used the somewhat blurry image of the Plague and the flash of light when the battleship destroyed the space port on the planet Teligalis as the background, and published a large front page headline, just a few The title is shocking.
The Speaker of the Galactic Senate, Sheev Palpatine, urgently convened a meeting of the Jedi Order, the three major industrial giants, and the Republic's Supreme Strategic Command, and announced that the issue of the Plague would be discussed by the entire parliament one day later.
Different from the people's panic, the three major industrial giants were not as nervous about this 14,100-meter-long ship as they were when they faced the Venomous Fang.
"Just maintain the original design direction." Lila Blissex, chief engineer of Quat Power Shipyard, pushed aside the information in front of her and said coldly, "Based on the current design, what we proposed before Our 17,500-meter super Star Destroyer plan can easily defeat this battleship. If it can deal with the Fang, it can naturally deal with the Plague."
The engineers from Lundilli Interstellar Power Company and Corellia Engineering Company on the side also nodded expressionlessly. Since the order was not with them anyway, they naturally took it casually. No matter what, it would be best if this ship was designed by Quart. It was shot to pieces by the Plague.
"It seems that in your eyes, the Plague is not as threatening as the Fang?" Palpatine asked with interest.
"This is just addition. It is nothing more than continuously superimposing caliber and energy level. As long as it is larger than this battleship, it can be easily defeated. On the contrary, the EMP of the Venom Fang is difficult to damage the shield. Imagine, we have to consider this when designing. Preventing EMP is naturally much more complicated than guarding against a big iron lump." Lila Blissex said.
A sneer appeared on Palpatine's lips, "I understand, so in that case, you should hurry up and design this super Star Destroyer."
"But our battle situation cannot wait until this time." Master Windu said, "The weakness of the Plague is more obvious than that of the Fang. Without the cover of the fleet, it is very possible to get rid of the Plague."
"We will increase our preparedness, Separatism. We will no longer attack with a single ship, after the Fang is destroyed." Master Yoda said.
"But at least, the battle of the Fang showed the power of the Jedi Order. I believe that the Plague will meet the same fate." Palpatine said with a smile, "Now we need to be more vigilant, as long as the Plague appears again, We must capture it to prevent the tragedy of Planet Trigalis from happening again.”
After the meeting, Sheev Palpatine secretly went to the deserted industrial area of Coruscant and took out the communicator.
The holographic projection of Count Dooku appeared. He knelt on one knee and said respectfully: "My Lord, regarding the Fang, it was my mistake that allowed the Jedi to seize the opportunity. I will never do it next time. I won’t make this mistake again.”
"What makes you think you have another chance?" Darth Sidious's twisted and greasy voice seemed to carry a chilling chill.
"Next, I will reorganize the fleet with the Plague as the core, which will deal a fatal blow to the Republic! And I believe that more Jedi Knights will die in the process of fighting against the Plague... uh..."
Before Count Dooku finished speaking, Darth Sidious strangled his neck with the Force! Darth Sidious's terrifying dark side force directly acted on Count Dooku across the endless starry sky, and then threw him far away with a wave of his hand.
"I remember I told you, Plague, destroy it!" Darth Sidious said through gritted teeth.
"But Lord, we have lost the Fang..." Count Dooku stood up from the ground and explained quickly.
"Do you want me to say the same thing a third time?" Darth Sidious said coldly.
"I don't dare... I will immediately arrange matters related to the Plague." Count Dooku quickly lowered his head and agreed, "But I also hope that the Lord will make it clear what the strategic direction of the Federation of Independent Systems will be after the Plague is destroyed. Now the Venom Fang and the Plague The number is so popular among the people on the Confederate side, and in that case both were destroyed... the war is likely to end early..."
"When the war ends, it's not up to the Republic, it's not up to the Jedi Order, it's not up to the Confederacy of Independent Systems! When the war ends, it's up to me! In a matter of seconds!" Darth Sidious Grasping the void with his hands, Count Dooku saw everything around him shaking violently.
Then his tone changed and became friendly again, "As long as the Plague is killed, I will naturally have a way to retrieve it for the Confederacy of Independent Systems elsewhere."
"It's just, why..."
"I just don't like this name."
