2139 、 Battle of the Two (1)
After ending his conversation with Banjira Ulan, Tang Yu walked out with satisfaction. He originally wanted to return to the dormitory area and continue to dawdle around, but after thinking about it, he still walked towards Venom Fang's bridge. He did not take the train, but hummed a tune as he walked. It was only two kilometers from the meeting room to the bridge anyway, so he treated it as a stroll.
Without a doubt, Tang Yu finally agreed to Banjira Ulan's request, and asked Cameron -Phillips and Catherine Weaver to send the 193 Dreadnaught-class heavy cruisers of the Blade Fleet to a secret shipyard set up by Lendili Interstellar Dynamics Company in the Central Sector for maintenance. Tang Jiu would also meet up with them on the way. Cameron and Catherine, the two most stable people under Tang Yu, plus Tang Jiu the T-9800, with this combination, there was no need to worry about Lendili playing any tricks.
As for providing Lendili with the backend data of the Blade Fleet, Tang Yu did not care. Because through his conversation with Banjira Ulan, coupled with his own familiarity with the plot of Star Wars, Tang Yu determined that Lendili would not play tricks on him in this matter, because their interests were currently aligned with Tang Yu's.
In fact, no matter which world it was, as long as the experimenter entered this world and made an impact, then the butterfly's wings would definitely flap, not to mention that Tang Yu had brought an entire planet over! Now, the plot details of the world of Star Wars had been blown beyond recognition by the giant butterfly that was Tang Yu. The Thirteenth Army suffered heavy losses, Master Yoda retired, the Confederacy occupied the Outer Rim … but Tang Yu did not care at all.
Because he was afraid of changing the plot, afraid of making things he knew unknown. This was the behavior of a coward. Because no matter how the plot changed, everyone, every faction, and their interests would not change. As long as they could grasp this point, no matter how the butterfly's wings flapped, they would be able to accurately grasp the direction of the world and turn it upside down.
Banjira Ulan, for example, was obviously a little surprised that Tang Yu had agreed to this request so readily. This was because providing the backend data meant that Tang Yu's greatest trump card was being exposed right in front of them. As long as he provided this data to the Republic, then the Republic's fleet would be able to easily wipe out this entire fleet. But Tang Yu still agreed! In his opinion, this Tang Yu was either shrewd and had an extraordinary bearing, or he was a pure idiot. Judging from Guardian Planet's performance so far, it was obvious that it was the former. This made Banjira Ulan very interested in Tang Yu.
However, Tang Yu knew that although he had the bearing and magnanimity, he wouldn't dare to do this if he wasn't confident. This was because he knew very well that the backend data of the Blade Fleet was Lendili Interstellar Dynamics Company's last resort.
Through his familiarity with the plot, Tang Yu knew very well that Lendili Interstellar Dynamics Company was currently in a very bad situation. Why? As mentioned above, Lendili had almost monopolized almost all the Republic's warship production in the beginning and was at its peak. However, in the current composition of the Republic's fleet, the Hunter class and the Cheerleader class were products of the Kuat Power Dock, while the Victory-class and Dreadnaught-class were products of Lendili. Think about how many Hunter class and Cheerleader class were there, and how many Victory-class and Dreadnaught-class were there? The Republic's main fleet was basically all Hunter class and Cheerleader class ships. Even the auxiliary ships were mostly Aquitense-class light cruisers, which were made by the Kuat. Therefore, the spaceships built by Lendili were in the Republic's fleet just to make up the numbers.
There was another most important thing. In the future, the Galactic Empire's warship production would rely on the Kuat Power Dock. The First Order still relied on the Kuat Power Dock to secretly build the Star Killer Base at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy. Those who were observant could already see this. What about Lendili?
The answer was that it was basically useless during the Clone Wars. After that, it struggled for a while during the Galactic Empire era before going completely bankrupt, and its tens of thousands of years of business heritage disappeared without a trace. The reason was that they had sided with the Independent Star Confederation during the later stages of the Clone Wars. Then, they were disarmed by the well-prepared Palpatine, and almost completely wiped out.
If one wanted to find the reason, it would have to be because of one name — Wilix Blissex, the genius warship designer! It was this name that broke the thousands of years of competition and balance between the Kuat Power Dock and Lendili Interstellar Dynamics Company!
Wilix was the genius designer in the Milky Way Galaxy who first proposed the concept of 'Star Destroyer'. He put this concept into practice at the Kuat Power Dock, and the Cheerleader class was born. Of course, at that time, it was not specifically used for landing, so it was not called an assault landing ship, but a Cheerleader class Star Destroyer. The name Wilix Blissex was also famous throughout the world, and he was called the father of the Star Destroyer.
This type of warship was huge in size, had terrifying firepower, and could carry 16000 soldiers and four fighter squadrons at once. A single warship could create a deterrent effect on a planet, and during the later stages of the Republic, it played an important role in fighting the uprisings and rebellions.
The birth of the Cheerleader class made the upper echelons of the Galactic Republic and the capitalists rejoice. They believed that the Star Destroyer was the development direction for interstellar warfare. Moreover, what better way to show off their power than such a terrifying giant warship cannon? Orders flew to the Kuat Power Dock like snowflakes. On the artificial star ring around Planet Kuat, countless shipyards worked day and night on construction. Whether it was technical workers or managers, they were all smiling as they counted the money in their hands.
On the other hand, the deserted Lendili Interstellar Dynamics Company was the only company in front of them. Lendili was not a company known for innovation. Their creed was reliability, durability, and efficiency. The fact that the Hammerhead-class Cruiser could be used for thousands of years was a manifestation of this principle. Therefore, in terms of Star Destroyer, Lendili was far behind.
Seeing that the situation of the two giants was about to be broken, the Lendili Interstellar Dynamics Company finally began to take action. They exerted their tens of thousands of years of foundation and accumulation, and actually managed to poach the gem of the Kuat Power Dock, Wilix-Blissex, under their banner!
And Wilix did not disappoint the Lendili Interstellar Dynamics Company. He designed the Victory-class Star Destroyer for Lendili. This kind of Star Destroyer was the same as the Cheerleader class Star Destroyer, with a triangular hull and a tall bridge. However, the difference was that the Victory-class Star Destroyer did not emphasize the ability to transport people like the Cheerleader class. Instead, it reduced the carrying capacity, increased the armor and firepower, and became more powerful.
However, Lendili did not expect that the Victory-class Star Destroyer that they had high hopes for did not bring them the change they expected. Instead, after the Battle of Neb, they fell into an even bigger abyss, all because they missed the influence of two other people.
The President of the Galactic Republic, Shive-Palpatine, and Wilix's daughter, Lila Blissex!!
[Note 1]: Once again, the relationship between the Victory-class Star Destroyer and the Hunter-class Cruiser is contradictory in the setting of "Star Wars". The small mirror here adopts the setting of the Victory-class before the Hunter-class.
