Chapter 322: Meeting Below
Most of the members of the Resistance League have dual identities. One is a member of the Imperial Diet on the surface (although this council is basically a decoration, and the emperor can decide anything), and the other is the leader of the rebel rebels in various galaxies.
However, by now, many rebels have been crushed by the Empire. Even the current Resistance League has been compressed by the Empire and has to retreat to Yavin IV. Therefore, some members of the Resistance League counted their own little ninety-nine. Now that information about the Death Star is unknown, many people are planning to surrender. If you admit your mistake like the emperor, for the sake of being a member of the Imperial Diet, the emperor should forgive himself, right?
Many capitulationist members gained the upper hand, and even questioned the reality of the "Death Star" as alarmist and an excuse concocted by the die-hards of the Resistance League to unify their forces.
Listening to the doubts of these committee members, Jean Ersor was very sad and angry. She was furious, angry that her father had desperately spread the news, and when she came to the rebels, she was questioned. She was saddened that her father had given his life for that illusory hope.
Listening to the quarrel of the rebel commissars, Jean Ersor could no longer control it, she pushed away the people in front of her and ran to the round table. Under the astonished gaze of many of the rebel councillors, Jean Ersor began to defend his father.
"What reason does my father have to lie, and what good does it do him?" said Jean Ersor angrily at the commissioners who shouted that the news was false.
"Huh...... This is, of course, the trap of the Empire, revealing this false information, and then luring us to gather an army to fight them. Good for us to be wiped out once and for all. A member of the capitulation faction said gloomily.
"Yes, on what basis did your father take such a risky message? and for what? he was a criminal! a criminal who was in the same league as the Empire! a mad scientist! a scientist who made weapons of slaughter for the Empire!" another capitulator pointed mercilessly at Jean Ersor and blamed his father. "A scientist of the Empire, how can his news make us admit it?"
Jean Ersor almost cracked her eyes at these questions, her teeth clenched her lip, and after waiting for the commissioners to finish, she pointed to Bodhi Ruke in the distance and said: "The Imperial pilot who delivered the news to my father is there, and he can prove that what my father said is not an imperial trap!"
The capitulationist members sneered again and again, not looking at Bodhi Rook at all. How can a small person get into their eyes?
"My father sacrificed himself so that we could have a chance and hope for the final victory!" Jean Ersor continued.
Nobita in the distance shook his head, knowing that Jean Ersor was destined to not be able to convince these committee members, but he still felt childish and braindead for Jean Ersor's self-defense. Will these former and present imperial bureaucrats, most of whom formed the rebel army for the sake of profit, be enthusiastic about her remarks as a small person? The answer, of course, is no, unless I personally end it......
Ahem...... Well, I'm going to keep a low profile here, though. Nobita thought so. Because he faked his identity as a spy for Princess Leia. At this time, Princess Leia's father was at the round table (Belle Organa, Princess Leia's adoptive father). Nobita is not worried about whether he will see through himself, because Princess Leia is flying to the imperial capital as a member of the Imperial Diet at this time. But don't get in trouble......
Over there, even the members of the main battle faction began to question Jean Ersor.
"What if your father lied to you?"
As soon as these words came out, Jean Ersor couldn't control her tears anymore, and she was bullied by these big people to tears.
"Even if the empire has such a powerful weapon, then what chance do we have?
Jean Urso tearfully turned to look at the capitulationist councillor, "What chance do we have? But what about here? What about most of the people here who are wanted by the Empire? Fleeing, hiding, kneeling and begging for mercy, disbanding the army, handing in weapons?"
Jean Ersor wiped away her tears, looked at the many councillors, and uttered her words word by word: "If you succumb to such an evil and powerful enemy, then the entire galaxy will fall into never-ending oppression!"
Jean Ersor's words stirred up most of the mid-ranking rebel officers who were listening in the main hall, and the people began to whisper. Some people even shouted loudly in support of Jean Ersso. Most of the commissioners also fell into deep thought.
Nobita still shook his head. But Richard next to him was a little enthusiastic for a while.
Jean Ersor smiled and said loudly to everyone, "At this time, if we don't fight, when will we stay?"
"Yes!" "Well said!" "I support you, little girl!" The people were moved by Jean Ersso's righteous speech.
"Now for every second we waste, the 'Death Star' could come over us, and we will be the next Jada!" Jean Ersor listened to the support of the people, and was greatly encouraged. But looking at the members who still did not express their position, Jean Ersor had to continue to persuade him.
"No, we don't want to destroy!" "We want to fight!" "Fight!" The mid-level officers around the hall waved their fists and approached the round table.
"Well, then please tell me about your plan...... "One of the main battle faction members spoke slowly.
Jean Ersor was so encouraged that he immediately spoke: "Send the elite troops to Scarif! Grab the blueprints of the Death Star! Dispatch all the Rebel Alliance fleets! We must fight Scarif immediately and get the blueprints of the Death Star!" This is the only hope for destroying the Death Star!"
At the moment when this group was excited, most of the middle-level officers were enthusiastic. A sneer interrupted Jean Ersor.
The dark-skinned capitulationist stood up again, stopped the commotion of the crowd, and said to Jean Ersor, "Huh...... What do you mean, we're only going to go to such great lengths in the hope of "destroying the Death Star", and we're going to invade the Empire's heavily defended bases?"
