The giant corporations that started from Night City

Chapter 346: Avoiding the War! The Mysterious Planet Endor! Hidden Dangers of the Galactic Empire!
The top executives of the giant companies present all knew more or less about Chinese history, and they also knew what the emergence of the Yuuzhanfeng civilization meant to the world's giant companies at this critical juncture.

Once the Universe Corporation officially goes to war with the Galactic Empire over the Death Star design, it will only accelerate the time for the Yuuzhan Vong civilization to invade the Milky Way.

In the end, it will only benefit this extragalactic civilization for nothing.

"Boss, should we take the initiative and go directly to the outer galaxies to catch the Yuuzhan Vong and fight them? If we hurt them, maybe we can make them give up the idea of ​​invading."

At this time, Jack Wells suggested that in his opinion, since the Yuuzhan Vong only dared to take advantage of the opportunity, it meant that they did not have the confidence to go to war with the Galactic Empire in its heyday.

But the world's giant companies have this ability!

If they encounter a War-Venge civilization, which is only a force not much different from the Galactic Empire, then the giant corporations can take the initiative and scare these barbaric species.

"No, don't act rashly for now. Continue to collect intelligence. However, if the Yuuzhan Vong dare to step into the Milky Way, we will annihilate them on the spot!"

Li Ang made up his mind about the strategic policy for dealing with the extraterrestrial civilizations, which was to wait for the attack and never take the initiative to attack.

This is because the anxious party now is the Yuuzhan Vong civilization. Because of a long period of internal fighting, this group of aliens has caused their own galaxy to be in a mess.

Resources are exhausted, the living environment is harsh, and even the battle tower on the mother planet was destroyed by their own people.

At this moment, the Yuuzhanfeng civilization is busy launching reconnaissance devices everywhere in order to find a new home and a place to settle down.

For the Cosmic Corporation, it only needs to defend the edge of the galaxy, intimidate the Yuuzhan Vong with a powerful fleet, and then integrate the interior of the galaxy, and the rest of the things will be much easier.

【Yes! 】

V, who was on the other side of the hard-light screen, responded.

Li Ang nodded and said nothing more to V. After simply saying a sentence or two, he ended the conversation.

In fact, the reason why he didn't let V take the initiative to attack was not only to avoid fighting on two fronts, but also to avoid disturbing the mysterious forces in the area outside the river!
And this mysterious force comes from the star Endor in the Model star region on the outskirts of the Milky Way!

Endor is a strange place involving a multi-dimensional universe crack plane. If we were to say which place in "Star Wars" is the most terrifying, there is no choice but Endor.

Because Endor is the balance point of the multidimensional universe rift, witches, ancient dragons, and various strange life species often appear here.

Including the local species of Endor, the bears, are extremely abstract existences. Rather than being aliens, it is better to say that the Endor bears are magical creatures that do not follow the physical plane at all!
It can be said that this thing should exist in the Hogwarts dimension of "Harry Potter" rather than the physical world.

The bizarreness of a species that does not obey the laws of physics appearing in the science fiction dimension is equivalent to the technological competition between the world's giant companies and Tom Cat and Big Bad Wolf.

For two-dimensional creatures, no matter whether it is Tom Cat or Big Bad Wolf, any invention they make is a conceptual-level dimensionality reduction attack, and Le Ang is simply powerless to resist!
In short, whether it is the region of Endor, or every plant and tree, and every living species on it, they are all top forces in the Star Wars dimension.

The fundamental reason for this situation is that Endor was the battlefield where the gods and the old Taiyi transcended the dimension of time!
It can be simply understood that two gods fought and created a plane area leading to infinite universe, which is also one of the few worlds that go against the law of the Force.

No matter how powerful a force user is, he will still be useless here. This divine land is full of traces left by god-level powerful people, and no one can rule this place.

In addition, Endor also has a top artifact that is even more terrifying than Starkiller Base, that is the "Sun Star" that can kill gods!
In the distant era of the gods in the "Star Wars" universe, the old Taichi used the Sun Star as a weapon to kill the god Wucek.

This weapon is already a magic plug-in that can easily destroy and reshape the universe. Even if Leon has other ideas, he doesn't have the mind to get involved.

Therefore, before the areas within the Milky Way are completely integrated and stabilized, Leon's decision is to avoid provoking extragalactic civilizations as much as possible.

Try to avoid disturbing the "gods" on Endor.

"Boss, if we go to war with the Galactic Empire, the Yuuzhan Vong outside the galaxy will still take advantage of the situation and invade. We will still face the trouble of fighting on two fronts."

"Since we can't avoid this situation no matter what we choose, we might as well take the initiative and catch the Yuuzhan Vong off guard, so as to avoid sacrificing more troops later."

As the leader of the Iron Hands Chapter, Jack Wells's combat style is to strike first, no matter how powerful the opponent is, just fight first.

If you win, you can just consume the opponent's manpower. If you lose, then you can use it as an opportunity to find out the opponent's strengths and weaknesses so as to adjust the next countermeasures.

In short, Jack would rather make mistakes than do nothing.

Jack's words are also the voice of senior generals such as Reed and Johnny Silverhand. In most cases, the advantage of taking the initiative will be greater.

On the contrary, there are very few examples of defensive counterattacks leading to victory.

"No, we can't go to war with the Empire, but we can still fight a small-scale battle."

Faced with Jack's proposal, Leon shook his head. In fact, he had never thought about going to war with the Galactic Empire. The reason why he asked David to prepare for war was that

He just wanted to use fighting to promote talks with the Empire. War is always a continuation of politics. Leon had already found a suitable entry point to force the Galactic Empire to negotiate with him.

Even take it for your own use!
As for fighting, it was just to show the Galactic Empire its strength.

According to the original plot line of the "Star Wars" universe, the Galactic Empire also sensed the threat from extragalactic forces during the Clone Wars.

At that time, Palpatine believed that only a strong and unified Milky Way could fight against the mysterious civilizations from outside the galaxy and ensure internal prosperity and development.

In order to accelerate the unification of the galaxy, Palpatine made a series of moves that offended his allies and left himself with political risks.

For example, he revealed his identity and pointed out that he was the Lord of the Sith Empire. This operation was originally intended to promote the unification of the Republic and the Sith Empire and the completion of the great reconciliation of the two families.

But the war between the Republic and the Sith Empire lasted for thousands of years. The two sides even had constant conflicts at the beginning of the establishment of their own camps, and fought for so many years.

As a result, Palpatine suddenly jumped out and unilaterally announced a reconciliation between the two families. This made the old senators of the Republic who had supported him to take office so disgusted that they couldn't eat.

No one could have imagined that Palpatine, BYD, would be the head of the Sith Empire.

This fucked-up feeling is no less than when Boss Cao saw that his own Cao Wei property title deed was easily taken away by the Sima family.

Frustrated, angry and powerless! In addition, the Trade Federation, which once promoted the Clone Wars, is even more miserable.

When Palpatine first came to power, he asked the Trade Federation to set up a Confederation of Independent Systems, which made it easier to do business and make money.

As a result, BYD Palpatine, who had just established the Galactic Empire, immediately nationalized the Trade Federation and also took over the Confederation of Independent Systems.

This set of operations of abandoning the donkey after it has served its purpose directly dumbfounded the masters of the Trade Federation consortium. Palpatine was the first person in history to be so shameless!

It can be said that when the Galactic Empire was first established, it offended both its own main political groups and the money-making groups.

The reason why this group of rebel bandits was able to overthrow and defeat the Galactic Empire was not because they were so powerful.

But there are too many hidden dangers and risks that Palpatine has planted for the empire!

There are too many financial backers behind the scenes who support the rebels in overthrowing the empire.

This is also the fundamental reason why the rebel army was able to develop rapidly. Money and resources are always the key. Without these, no matter how strong the organization is, it is doomed to not last long.

The Consortium and old senators of the Republic, who had been severely backstabbed by Palpatine, began to place their bets again after seeing the rebel uprising.

This is also the reason why the rebels became stronger and stronger and the New Republic was established.

In essence, it is the result of re-selection by other financial forces.

Therefore, the current Galactic Empire is relatively strong on the outside but weak on the inside, especially Palpatine. His political foundation is quite unstable and he can be easily replaced by new forces!
What Leon has to do now is to replicate Palpatine's actions when he came to power, unite the old senators, the Trade Union, and other civilized forces, and force the Empire to redistribute interests.

It's just like Palpatine back then, who used a series of conspiracies to coerce the old senators of the Old Republic to support himself in taking the throne and becoming the speaker.

"The Galactic Empire appears to be very powerful, with millions of Imperial Star Destroyers, but Palpatine has made too many enemies. We can actively unite all available forces to force Palpatine to make concessions."

Li Ang calmly presented his decision-making plan to the top executives of the giant companies below. This battle must be fought, and a great victory must be achieved!

The Empire was worried, and the former old senators and trade alliances chose to place their bets on the Universal Corporation again instead of choosing that bunch of useless rebels.

As the supreme governor of a giant corporation, Leon knew very well why Palpatine made a series of seemingly stupid moves.

The fundamental reason is that in order to achieve the political structure he wanted, Palpatine had to take compulsory control in order to efficiently complete resource allocation.

He revealed his identity as the Lord of the Sith Empire in order to legitimately mobilize the internal resources of the two forces and realize the reconstruction of the Grand Unified Empire.

The forced nationalization of the trade union is also to make efficient use of this money bag to handle the imperial army construction and technological development.

After all, if you discuss everything with the bosses of the consortium, nothing will be accomplished. For the sake of efficiency, you can only do it in a one-size-fits-all manner and take sole control of the financial power!

Not every person in a high position can be like Li Ang, who has both power and money. Li Ang runs a global giant, and he is the only boss.

To Li Ang, the top executives of any giant company are just employees who can be fired at any time. No one can use small groups to threaten the base of Li Ang's power.

Even if it is a partner like Quentin Sha, if Leon is in a bad mood one day, he can still ask the other party to leave and terminate the partnership.

Palpatine must have discussed this with the Trade Federation, but they failed to reach an agreement, so he took drastic measures and forcibly nationalized it.

The problem facing Palpatine now is that since he has offended the largest financial group in the galaxy, no one will be willing to pay for him to build an army in the future.

He also disgusted the old senators who had helped him to power, and they would never pay any attention to Palpatine again.

The identity of Sith Lord seems glorious on the surface, but in the eyes of the old leaders of the Republic, it is an absolute lowly bastard!
"Boss, I don't quite understand why the old members of the Republic are so disgusted by Palpatine's identity as a Sith Lord."

"Logically speaking, as the supreme leader of an enemy country, shouldn't Palpatine's status as a Sith Lord be a plus?"

At this time, Lucius expressed his confusion. As a veteran in running a giant company, his political experience was no less than that of Leon.

But I just can't see through the mystery.

If Palpatine, for the sake of the Empire's money, did not hesitate to offend the Trade Federation, delay their making money, and cut their flesh, it would lead to the consortium turning against the Empire.

Then why did the members of the Republic hate Palpatine for being a Sith Lord? Shouldn't they be grateful that their leader was able to take over two territories at the same time?

In response to the key questions raised by Lucius, other executives of giant companies also nodded in agreement, but they were not quite sure why.

"The conflict and origin between the Sith Empire and the Republic has always been inseparable from a very key force organization, that is the Jedi Order!"

Faced with everyone's confusion, Li Ang patiently pointed out the key points for them.

In fact, the early Jedi Order was nothing like the current Puritans of the Force who are pure-hearted, indifferent to fame and fortune.

On the contrary, the early Jedi Order was more open to play than the previous ones, highlighting the freedom of letting go of oneself!
The Jedi Knights who controlled the power of the Force not only had territorial sovereignty in the Republic at that time, but could also close the door and act as local landlords.

There was also a so-called Jedi Conference, which directly seized the political, legislative, and military powers, and lived a more carefree life than the emperor.

It is conceivable that the emergence of an armed force with greater power than the emperor within a republic would certainly cause dissatisfaction among many people.

Especially the members of the Republic. After all, they are the direct victims, and all the power in their hands was snatched away by these Jedi Knights!
As a result, conflicts began to break out between the Republic senators and the Jedi Knights, and the two sides often fought civil wars.

Every time a civil war breaks out, some evil Jedi Knights appear and run to the neighboring Sith to provide free technical support to the poor, and then rebuild their territory and become the landlords.

These Jedi Knights who turned to the dark side conquered the local Sith and were worshipped as gods by them. Gradually, the title of Dark Lord of the Sith emerged.

To put it more vividly, this kind of behavior is playing private server on the Sith server and enjoying the happiness of dominating the server above thousands of people!
