The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

827: Rage

Qi Jian, chief of staff of the Fourth Civilization, hurried towards Tang Xiao's governor's office. His expression was a little dignified. It was obvious that this matter was very important.

However, when he came to the door of the office, he found Helmut Zemo, the chief of staff of the Fourth Civilization and the chief assistant of the cabinet, standing there with a helpless look on his face.

"Your Excellency, Chief Assistant, is the governor busy?" Qi Jian walked over and asked.

"He's losing his temper." Helmut Zemo shook his head. "No matter what you want to do with him, unless it's something very good, it's best to wait until he's done venting."

Qi Jian frowned, and asked in a low voice, "Is it... about the Plague?"

"That's right, the Plague, and Severance Tann. You know, the Governor valued General Tann very much." Zemo nodded.

Qi Jian sighed, "The last information we received was that after General Severance Tann was cornered, he forcibly activated the hyperspace engine, jumped without any navigation, and then killed everyone with the ship. disappeared."

"A Titan warship that took 5 years to build, together with a rare military genius, just disappeared, and there is a high probability that it will never come back. No one can do such a thing. Accepted," Zemo said.

"However, didn't the Governor have expected this result long ago? He also said that he made a choice between the Trade Union and the Plague..." Qi Jian asked.

"Being able to predict it doesn't mean that he can accept it calmly when it is in front of him. Moreover, in recent years, the governor's temper has become more and more irritable. Fortunately, he can restrain himself most of the time. emotions and did not let anger dictate my choices," Zemo said.

"I am grumpy because I find that there are too many idiots." A gloomy voice came from their ears.

Zemo and Qi Jian were taken aback, and turned around quickly, only to find that Tang Xiao had opened the office door and walked out at some point, with a gloomy and scary face.

The two hurriedly bowed, "Your Excellency!"

"Why are there always people, even if I put the answer in front of them, they are still self-righteous!" Tang Xiao suppressed the anger in his heart.

Zemo smiled lightly and said: "Because, this is a genius. A person who acts step by step, step by step, his behavior can be predicted and controlled, of course, including the enemy. And the reason why a genius is a genius , It is because their behavior and ideas are unconstrained, and they have the ability to put such ideas into practice, and naturally they cannot be predicted by the enemy, including ourselves."

"Are you trying to tell me that the loss of the Plague is what it deserves?" Tang Xiao looked at Zemo with cold eyes.

Even Qi Jian on the side was frightened by Tang Xiao's gaze. He glanced at the governor's office behind the door, which looked as if it had been swept by a tornado, and he couldn't help but sweat dripping from his brow, and hurriedly said: "My lord governor, the matter is over , what we need is how to remedy this result."

"If another commander is in command, even if he is given 5 Plague ships, it is absolutely impossible to achieve the combat goal of raiding the planet Cato-Neimoidia, right?" Zemo said directly without fear .

Boom! Tang Xiao slammed his fist on the wall. His strength was so great that the punch actually made a dent in the alloy wall. He took a deep breath, and his voice calmed down, "Huh... what you said is true. Reasonable. It's just that such a thing could have been avoided, but in the end it turned out to be such a lose-lose result. I really can't accept it. But..."

The expression on his face gradually became ferocious, and he actually laughed, "Hehehehe... very good! Really good!! This is war! Unforeseen future, unpredictable death! Hehehehe... Come on! Come on!! Beat me!! It depends on whether you can do it!!!"

He roared into the void, as if he was yelling at the invisible fate, or as if he was provoking his greatest enemy, Darth Sidious.

Immediately, the expression on his face softened instantly, he turned to look at Qi Jian and asked, "Is there anything to report?"

Qi Jian hurriedly took out the universal tool in his hand, and projected a document in front of him, "Yes, Governor. Before that, among the galaxies we paid attention to, there were some changes in the planet Mon Calamari."

"Go on."

"It's the Quarrens. The contradictions between them and the Mon Calamari are intensifying, reaching the point where an armed conflict broke out. Recently, some rumors came from the Supreme Military Command of the Confederation of Independent Star Systems. General Grievous seems to be Planet Mon Calamari is under attack," Qi Jian said.

Tang Xiao rubbed his chin and pondered for a while, "This incident is not unexpected, because with the success of General Grievous's ritual offensive, the direct route from the planet Mon Calamari to the Galactic Republic has been blocked, and there has become a Enclaves. Plus the Mon Calamari and Quarren are excellent warship engineers, so doing something there is a sure thing."

"But that direction is in the east of the Milky Way, we are beyond our reach." Qi Jian said.

"Don't worry, we still have time." Tang Xiao said, "Tell our Senator Rosanna Goods and Senator Muira of the Salari that we can now make further contact with the Quarren. "

"Do you want to interfere?" Qi Jian asked.

"The planet Mon Calamari is an ocean planet, and this matter is left to the Salari. Although they are only an amphibious group, they are much more adaptable to the ocean environment than us." Tang Xiao said.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now." Qi Jian said.

After Qi Jian walked away, Tang Xiao turned to look at Zemo, and said slowly: "You don't need to worry, I always know what I want to do."

"That's why I pledge my allegiance to you." Zemo said, patting his chest.

...

At this time, in the barren space on the other side of the galaxy, the Titan battleship Plague was sailing at high speed. However, even though the speed of the battleship has exceeded the super high speed of more than 5 million kilometers per hour under constant acceleration, it still seems to be stationary in this star field with nothing.

Perhaps it is because of the existence of the hyperspace channel that many people have forgotten the vastness and emptiness of the universe. It is only now when flying at sub-light speed that they can understand the vastness of the universe.

In such a dead and silent space, even if you fly for hundreds or even thousands of years, the surrounding scenery will not change in any way, and every star that is not there will not change in the slightest.

Such silence is despair.

Despair, this is also the feeling in the hearts of everyone on the Titan battleship Plague... If they can't wait for rescue, then they will always float in this darkness until they die.
