The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

2198. The Empire Strikes Back (Part 2)

Palpatine waved his hand and said: "Since there are traitors within the empire, we must investigate thoroughly! Within three days, I need a list of traitors! After a secret interrogation, they will all be executed!"

"Yes!" Armand Isard immediately understood what Palpatine meant.

The list of traitors needs to be shown to Palpatine in person, and the whole process is a secret interrogation, which is obvious! Even Palpatine plans to use this opportunity to eradicate a group of disobedient guys. As the head of the Intelligence Department, the most critical issue is not to find out the truth about the Rafa Galaxy, but to draw up a plan that can A list of 'traitors' that satisfied Palpatine!

Palpatine said gloomily: "As for Tang Xiao! We must not let him go in this matter! He actually conspired in our empire, incited many high-ranking officials to rebel, and tried to seize our research results in the Rafah galaxy. We can’t just let this matter go! In addition to sinking the Infinity super aircraft carrier in the Rafa galaxy, we must make Tang Xiao pay the price!”

At this time, Dunn Wessex, who had been silent, stood up, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I have a plan that can give the Principality of Dawn a heavy blow at the minimum cost."

"Hahahahahaha! Very good! Very good! Very good!!! Say it, say it!" Palpatine said with great joy. It was obvious that no matter what the plan was, Dunn Wessex's statement was a slap in the face. Hit him in the heart.

"According to previous intelligence, the Principality of Dawn has controlled the Chis Territory in the unknown star field, and the Eternal, one of the Endless-class super aircraft carriers, has been stationed in the Chis Territory to suppress the local resistance. Moreover, they have just recently concluded The war with Kilgi, the Kingdom of Light, forced the Kingdom of Light to sign a surrender treaty and was forcibly merged into the Chiss Territory..." Dunn-Wessex said: "But now, the Eternal has been transferred. As a result, Qisi Territory is actually very empty."

Palpatine nodded and said, "You mean, attack the Chiss Territory?"

Dunn-Wessex said: "Rather than attacking, I prefer to call it... interference. We don't need to gather too many fleets, we only need a little successful operation to allow the Chissland and the Kingdom of Light to establish People like Erji who have been forcibly occupied can just rise up and resist.”

"You have to think clearly, since those garbage Chiss leaders can be defeated once by the Principality of Dawn, they can be defeated a second time and a third time." Wilhuff Tarkin said coldly.

"Of course I have a comprehensive plan." Dunn-Wessex said: "First of all, the Empire's Seventh Army in the north has been responsible for the exploration of the unknown star field since before. The main backbone of the Seventh Army, We all participated in the Galactic Republic's overseas exploration program and have a very deep understanding of the unknown star field. Secondly, there happens to be a Chiss officer under our army."

"You mean the officer named Thrawn?" Palpatine naturally still remembered the young Chiss who had interviewed him, "Hehehehe... very good! Very good! Just follow your plan! Here you go. I will overthrow the Qisi Territory in one fell swoop! No... I want to occupy the Qisi Territory! I want them to know that only by joining my command can they be protected from Tang Xiao's exploitation and abuse!"

"As you wish, my Majesty." Dunn Wessex couldn't hide the excitement on his face and quickly lowered his head in response.

There is no doubt that once this plan succeeds, then the large area of ​​​​the unknown star field, including the Chis Territory, will naturally be placed under his command! In this way, he will become the well-deserved number one in the Galactic Empire's military! Even Darth Vader has no choice but to surrender!

Wilhuff Tarkin's mouth moved, but he still held it back. Naturally, he didn't want to see Dunn Wessex get involved in the Chiss Territory after taking control of the North, but in the current atmosphere, you can tell by looking at Palpatine that he absolutely cannot stand up to refute of. Once you come out to refute, it will be counterproductive and affect your status in Palpatine's heart.

However, he was not completely idle. Tarkin stood up and said: "I will also let the Empire's Fourth Army take action to suppress the Mandalorian sector and let Severance Tann in the Rafa star system." The operation cannot be carried out smoothly.”

"Okay! Let's do it!" Palpatine waved his hand, but he obviously didn't care.

There is nothing Tarkin can do. This is the greatest power he can strive for in this meeting. I just regret that my movements and reactions were a step too slow, allowing this guy Dunn Wessex to take the lead again!

…

One day later, in the northern border of the Milky Way, the Ninth Army headquarters was on the planet Palin Minor.

The Chiss Mis-Lo Nurudo Thrawn stood in front of the wine cabinet, poured a quarter cup of light blue wine into two crystal glasses, shook it gently three times, and then looked at The shallow vortex formed in the wine glass said: "Very good, brewing at a temperature of 11°C can ensure that the viscosity of Lansheer's craft beer reaches the best ratio, and the taste is the best at this time."

As he spoke, he placed one of the crystal cups in front of Gilad Perrine.

"I didn't expect you to buy me a drink." Gilad Perrine said with a smile.

"I just want you to taste the taste of Chisling." Thrawn said lightly, "You still have ten seconds to enjoy the best essence of this glass of wine."

Gilard Perrine didn't hesitate, just picked up the glass and drank it all in one go. He pursed his lips and said, "It does feel very refreshing, and the alcohol concentration is just right. It's very comfortable to drink. But I'm sorry, I'm not an expert in wine tasting."

"When you picked up the cup, your palm came into contact with the cup body. Your body temperature caused the temperature of Ranchel's craft beer to exceed 12 degrees Celsius, which ruined the taste." Thrawn shook his head regretfully.

He had already finished the wine when he spoke just now, and his movements were very graceful.

Gilad Perrine shook his head, "Well, it seems that I really can't understand it. Let's be honest, do you have something to ask of me? In fact, you don't have to invite me to drink like this. If you want anything, tell me, I I will definitely try to help.”

However, Thrawn just showed an unpredictable expression, "Actually, you should be asking me for help soon."

"I'm asking you for help? What's the matter? Why don't I know?" Gilad Perrine was confused.

"You should receive an order soon, asking you to preside over the Chiss Leader's military operations." Thrawn said, "Of course they will look for me, but I am only a major general, not a high enough level. So, for this battle, you It should be the commander-in-chief. But..."

He took Pellaeon's wine glass, returned to the wine cabinet and poured another quarter cup of Lanshel's craft beer, and then said: "But what I need to tell you is that this operation is so stupid that it explodes. "

Today I went to see "Alien: Taken". Well, that's what an Alien movie should be like.
