The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1942. For the Galactic Republic

"I'm sorry Padmé. I swear that I will use my life to bring Princess Leia back." Bail Organa said.

Padmé Amidala patted the back of Bell's hand with her backhand and said, "Tell me."

"What?" Bail Organa didn't react at all.

"Tell me...everything," Padmé said.

Bail Organa sighed and told it all. They had been talking here into the evening.

After the destruction of the Jedi Order, Palpatine took over all the power, and then two armies attacked the Principality of Dawn and failed miserably. And then because of that tragic failure, the Galactic Republic finally could no longer suppress its internal conflicts, and overnight Reorganized into the Galactic Empire.

Then came the surrender of the Principality of Dawn, and Palpatine's throne became more and more stable. The Galactic Empire intensified its exploitation of the middle and outer ring areas, concentrated all its wealth in the core circle, and then went to war and prepared for war.

After that, there was the fall of the planet Salukami, the massacre, and the destruction of the Confederation of Independent Systems...

This series of earth-shaking changes made Padmé Amidala silent. Although her body was extremely weak, the anger in her heart could not be suppressed. She clenched her fists and her body was shaking slightly.

"We have all been fooled... everyone." Bail Organa said, "This war has given Palpatine so many things, power, troops, strength... Some even say that even this war has given Palpatine so much. The war was all a manipulated conspiracy. We failed and could only watch helplessly as he destroyed the Galactic Republic and ascended the throne as emperor."

Padmé Amidala was silent and trembling. She had not been shaken even when she heard the news that her daughter had been kidnapped. But at this moment, her face was filled with tears. "Everything we once swore to protect has become nothing..." ...Palpatine, he will pay the price!"

"Yes, there are still many things we can do. Palpatine spreads terror everywhere in the galaxy, and his cruel exploitation makes those planets that cannot survive rise up to resist. It's just that his power is too strong, and the current resistance , it’s just an increase in sacrifice... Fortunately, you are also awake, which will make us stronger." Bail Organa said.

Padmé Amidala smiled and nodded, "We still have too much to do, let's finish it together!"

"Then... there's Leia." Bail Organa's tone became serious. "We conducted a lot of investigations, but we could find very few clues. We found such a memory on the squire robot WA-2V, which contained It is a computer virus. At the same time, those drones that were confused during the pursuit have also been proven to have had their communication systems and command systems cracked in advance, which caused them to be confused."

"I believe you, Senator Organa. You must have tried your best to prevent this from happening, but Leia was still kidnapped. This only shows that the other party knows Leia's true identity." Padmé-A Midala said.

"The kidnapper is invisible. When she broke into Leia's bedroom, she broke the glass, so she appeared at that moment. Two of our guards saw some shadows, and with the help of the computer , we restored the appearance of the kidnapper as much as possible." Bail Organa took out a memory and retrieved the files inside.

I only saw a female figure wearing a tight-fitting combat uniform in the holographic projection, who was obviously a very hot figure. Although she couldn't see her appearance clearly, she could still see the tactical goggles on her eyes that emitted a faint blue light, as well as her long blond hair that was styled into a single ponytail.

"Their kidnapping operation also used robots, which shows that they have cutting-edge technical capabilities in robots and computers. Coupled with efficient cloaking devices, this kidnapping case is very likely to be done by the Principality of Dawn." Bail Organa said.

"The deceased angel...Tang Xiao." Padmé Amidala closed her eyes and fell silent.

Tomei also said: "When Leia was just born, we discovered that there was a problem with R2-D2's actions. Later, after inspection, we found that someone had tampered with its program. If we want to judge it this way , maybe the kidnappers had targeted Leia and the others three years ago. If it was really the Principality of Dawn...what were they planning? The Principality of Dawn probably knew about Leia's life experience, but did not tell Palpa Ting…this is very concerning.”

"I have posted a high bounty on the black market and will hire a group of top bounty hunters and mercenaries to rescue Leia. I swear, I will definitely rescue her!" Bail Organa said firmly. said.

Padmé Amidala sighed and said: "There is no need to waste money, and there is no need to let those bounty hunters die. Since it is most likely done by the Principality of Dawn, it is better to go directly to Tang Xiao. Although They are both Sith Lords, but Tang Xiao's behavior style is different from Palpatine's. If it was really him who did it, he would not deny it."

Bail Organa nodded thoughtfully.

"Congressman Organa... I'm afraid I have to leave this matter to you. I just want to make sure that my daughter is still alive." Padmé Amidala said.

"Don't worry, I will contact Tang Xiao immediately after I arrange it." Bail Organa said.

As a member of Parliament, Bail Organa naturally has a way to contact Tang Xiao, but the biggest difficulty is that this matter cannot be known by the Imperial Intelligence Department. Therefore, he had to make preparations to ensure that he would not be monitored before contacting Tang Xiao.

Padmé Amidala added: "As for me, it's better to die..."

"Ms. Padmé! No!" Dome was afraid that Padmé would do something drastic again, so she quickly went up to hug her.

"Don't worry, Dome." Padmé Amidala patted Dome on the back, and then said: "I am no longer a member of parliament, so I can't be in the parliament with everyone like before. Fighting. In fact, when democracy no longer exists, the fighting in parliament has become very weak."

"You are right, Lady Padmé." Bail Organa nodded with a wry smile.

Padmé Amidala's expression became determined, "I will fight in another way, on another battlefield, as a dead man."

Although her voice was not loud, it was full of power, "I will never forget the oath I made... I will protect the Galactic Republic! Even if the Republic has perished, I will still stand in these ruins, brick by brick, Rebuild the Republic!"

She clenched her fists, "The Galactic Empire and Palpatine are both parasites attached to the Galactic Republic! They absorbed the blood of the Republic and gave birth to that twisted and ugly body! They must also be eliminated! As a initiator Sinners who fight wars, destroy democracy, and harm living beings!”

"So, you are going to..." Bail Organa also understood what Padmé Amidala meant.

Padmé Amidala said firmly: "Yes! I will raise the flag of resistance! Even if the power is weak, I will fight the Galactic Empire and Palpatine to the end! For freedom, for democracy, for ...Galactic Republic!"
