The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1253. Star Defense Fleet

"Master Puluo, this Bangira Ulan is obviously full of lies, why don't we expose him directly?" Jing Fang said as he walked.

Jax Pawan also nodded and said: "He said that he is absolutely loyal to the Galactic Republic, but in fact he has been secretly colluding with the separatism. Such a traitor should be controlled as soon as possible!"

Pulo-Kong shook his head and said: "I'm very happy to see your vitality, which is what the current Jedi Order lacks the most. But the situation on Lundili's side...is very complicated. At least in the case of Bangira - Ulan's current status, we can't move him for the time being."

Jing Fang righteously said: "Don't we, the Jedi Order, exist to deal with the evil that the Galactic Republic can't deal with?"

"That's true, Jing Fang." Pro-Kong nodded, "However, what we still lack is conclusive evidence."

"Bangira Ulan attempted to assassinate the commander of the defensive fleet, isn't that enough of a crime?" Jax Pawan asked with a frown.

"First of all, the Lundili Planetary Defense Fleet is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Lundili Interstellar Power Company. The commanders he assassinated were not directly subordinate officials of the Galactic Republic but employees of their company. Bangira just now That’s what he said, he can directly attribute this behavior to the struggle for power within their company.” Pulo-Kong said, “Moreover, some other behaviors of Rendili Interstellar Power Company are also attributed to commercial behavior. Because they can’t get orders, they want to expand into other businesses, as long as those military-spec ships don’t appear on the market, then they are not in violation.”

"Master Puluo, why do I feel that you are helping Bangira Ulan in the sophistry?" Jing Fang scratched the back of his head in doubt.

"I'm reminding you that this is the coping strategy Lendili is currently adopting—they try to hide all problems under the contradictions within the company." Pro-Kong taught patiently, "And what we need to do, It’s about not playing at their pace, but looking for the truth that’s been covered up. We have to find out what Benjira Ulan is planning before we can respond.”

Jing Fang covered his head with some headaches, "Actually, I would rather be sent by the committee to the front line to fight a good fight than to stay in a place like Lundili for a few more days...Compared to here, the battlefield is simpler. Just turn on the lightsaber and kill all the enemies."

"I'm more concerned about the bounty hunter with a mechanical arm..." Jax Pawan, whose mind is much more flexible, rubbed his chin and said, "Although the news about Rendili's upcoming separatism has already The hustle and bustle is over, but the real and final information comes from her... She also claims to be an undercover agent from the Republic, but why hasn't she been willing to meet us in person until now?"

Pulo-Kong said: "So, we need to grasp the real key. If we can't find what we want in the direction of the Republic, then we need to look for it from another direction, and that is separatism. Because no matter what they want Whatever the plan, everything, in the final analysis, will fall on the side of the separatists."

"Thanks to your teaching, Master Pu Luo." Jing Fang bowed and said.

"Let's go, let's go to the defense fleet, maybe their fleet commander, Captain Jace Dallin (Jace Dallin), can give us some other clues." Plo-Kong said, "We also need to know, What was the cause of the small-scale rebellion that happened a week ago."

Jing Fang and Jax Pawan nodded.

The shuttle they took flew away from the planet Lundili, and first went to the Jaeger-class battlecruiser Sundiver hovering in the outer orbit of the planet. After a short rest, the shuttle took off again to the front of the planet Lundili The berth of the defense fleet, fly directly to the flagship of the defense fleet, the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser Mersel Kebir.

When the shuttle of the Jedi Knights was stopped by the fighter planes of the Planetary Defense Fleet and they were not allowed to board the ship, on another Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser in the Planetary Defense Fleet, a rather heroic woman in tights was Sitting on the window sill next to the porthole, looking in that direction coldly.

Her right hand, starting from the shoulder, is completely a mechanical arm!

At this moment, she was holding a portable communicator in her hand, she kept staring at the shuttle over there, and said in a faint voice: "The Jedi Knights are heading towards the Messer-Kerber, it seems that our commander Jesse Darling doesn't want to see them... but I don't think he'll last long."

"Hehehehehe... This is what I like about Jedi knights. As long as they stare at a target, they will bite like a blood-sucking maggot and will not let go at all." The communicator did not The holographic projection was not turned on, but a distorted and greasy sound came from the other end. Just listening to this sound would make people feel uncomfortable.

Darth Sidious! There is no doubt that this voice is.

The woman did not answer, but continued to look at the shuttle. Sure enough, not long after, the flagship finally opened the hangar platform and let the shuttle of the Jedi Knight enter.

She sneered and said: "Hehe, that's true. Jesse Darling is a coward and a fool. He can't do anything. He is not an army establishment of the Galactic Republic, but an employee of Lundili, so he can only It's a captain's title, and in my opinion, a buffoon."

"My intelligence officers have already investigated his character, which is why I let you keep him alive in the previous riot." Darth Sidious said, "The Jedi Knights will deal with him." .So now, it can be said that the entire Lundili planetary defense fleet is already under our control, right?"

"From the current point of view, it is indeed the case. No one in the Planetary Defense Fleet dares to mention the matter of leaving the Galactic Republic..." The woman said lightly: "It's just that maybe the tension between the two parties is not there now. ...I feel that the current atmosphere of the defense fleet seems to be very relaxed. The day before yesterday, Jesse Darling allowed the officers and soldiers on those battleships to return to the planet Lundili for vacation in batches."

"This is not a very good signal, Arden Lyn (Note 1)! The situation of Rendili is so complicated now, but he has people abandoning the battleship and going to the planet for vacation! This matter is absolutely abnormal! It must be Stop!" Darth Sidious said.

"I think so too. After the Jedi Knights are done with Captain Darling, I'll go over to see what's going on with him..." The female bounty hunter named Arden-Lin frowned, "Actually, recently Our plan is not progressing very well. Maybe it is the reason why Bangira Ulan is counterattacking secretly? I found that some movements against Rendili Interstellar Power Company seem to have calmed down a lot..."

-

[Note 1]: In fact, I did plan to create a new character to take on this role, but then our operation officer suddenly mentioned Arden-Lin to me. That mechanical prosthetic limb actually coincided with Arden Lin's height. Although according to the original plot, Arden Lin's debut will have to wait for more than ten years, but then I thought, why not? Let her appear on stage early, maybe it will spark a different spark.
