Chapter 670 Betrayal and Reward
669, Betrayal and Reward
After hanging up the communication, Tang Xiao's face was gloomy. He quickly connected to another communication. The figure of the Hutt Alok-Besadi appeared in the holographic projection. Tang Xiao asked directly: "What happened to Nal Huta?"
Alok-Besadi still held the spice filter carved from gemstones in his mouth. After tasting the intoxicating spice flavor, he slowly said: "The current situation is not good."
Tang Xiao frowned.
Alok continued: "It's the Desiligi family, Jabba."
"He will never give up Tatooine. We knew it from the beginning." Tang Xiao said.
"He has been dormant for ten years. Now, he has started to act. This civil war in the Galactic Republic is his best opportunity." Alok said.
"Jabba, what did he do?" Tang Xiao's face was gloomy.
"Hmm..." Alok-Besadi took another big sip of the spice, closed his eyes and felt it, then said: "He plans to propose to Gadula."
Tang Xiao's mind suddenly appeared the picture of two Hutts doing that... and then... that... um..., but compared to this, the amount of information contained in this sentence is more surprising, "Propose? Jabba and Gadula?!"
"You must understand this. For the Besadi family, there is still a gap between our foundation and the Desiligiqi family, so this marriage is something we cannot refuse." Alok said.
Tang Xiao's face became more gloomy, "So, in order to marry the Desiligiqi family, you regard Tatooine as a dowry?"
"In my opinion, the word 'dowry' is very strange. But I can understand what you mean... Yes, Tatooine will be jointly managed by the Besadi family and the Desiligiqi family." Alok said lightly.
Perhaps sensing that Tang Xiao's face was not looking good, Alok added: "This is an agreement between our Besadi family and the Desiligi family. It will not have any impact on your Titan Security and the Scourge. The fleet authorized by you can also pass freely near Tatooine. Of course, for the Bonta Night Shuttle Racing Competition we jointly operate, it is still... a happy cooperation."
"But you just let go of a fleet of the Galactic Republic." Tang Xiao said coldly.
"This does not conflict with my letting your fleet go." Alok said.
Tang Xiao thought about it, and a smile appeared on his face again, "Well, maybe for the Hutts, this is your best choice now."
"If you can think so, I will be very grateful for your understanding." Alok said indifferently.
The communication was closed, and Tang Xiao punched the wall with a bang. He did not use the Force. This punch made his hand bleed, and there was even a shallow dent on the hard wall.
No matter how much Alok said, betrayal is betrayal! This is a shameful betrayal!
Tang Xiao was very sure that Palpatine must have been behind this! Jabba, who was desperate, must have hit it off with Palpatine. After all, in the original plot, the two were also in a cooperative relationship.
Alok said nicely that the Titan Security and the Scourge were the same as usual. But in fact, without the support of the Hutts, the Titan Security would definitely have a hard time in Nar Shadda, and the Scourge was even more so! Without the smugglers' supplies, the Scourge would soon run out of ammunition and food.
The reason why Alok did not take action against these two forces was just because he planned to take them for himself.
Never underestimate the greed of a Hutt.
In this matter, Tang Xiao admitted that he was still one step behind. He thought it was enough to control Gadula, the wimp, and he could also negotiate with the Besadi family behind her by coercing Gadula.
At first, he did succeed, but Jabba smashed all of Tang Xiao's calculations into nothing with a proposal - this move hit the nail on the head!
Gadula is a coward, this is true for Tang Xiao; it is also true for Jabba; it is even more true for the Besadi family.
Ambitious Alok-Besadi will not let such a coward control Tatooine, a key transportation artery, for a long time. From another perspective, Gadula was once so embarrassed that she had to do garbage recycling. Her ability to make money sitting on the treasure mountain of Tatooine is really worrying.
Moreover, I am afraid that the last kidnapping of Gadula also sounded the alarm for Alok. Although the kidnapping ultimately failed, this incident still cast a shadow in Alok's heart. Let me ask, if it was Jabba sitting in the palace of Tatooine, who would have the ability to kidnap him?
In other words, no matter how Tang Xiao calculated and tried to rescue Gadula at that time, Jabba had already won when the kidnapping occurred. ,,
For the interests of the Besadi family, accepting Jabba's proposal under such circumstances, and then letting the more powerful Jabba manage Tatooine, while also ending the decade-long struggle between the Besadi family and the Desiligi family, can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Moreover, once Jabba and Gadullah get married, according to their agreement, the Besadi family can make more money than now without doing anything, so why not?
The role of Palpatine's possible secret hand behind the scenes cannot be ignored. If the Republic fleet that had withdrawn from the planet Christophsis had not been released, Tang Xiao might not have been able to detect this factor.
Therefore, for the Bethadi family, all the good things are as long as Gardula opens her long legs... ah, no, it should be open... uh... how did the Hutts give birth to monkeys? Coming? Forget it...I don't want to look up this information either.
Tang Xiao calmed down after thinking about the joints.
He is not afraid of being betrayed or plotted by others. He is only afraid of being betrayed by others and not knowing why after being plotted against.
Now that everything is clear now, things are far from completely out of control.
Jabba wants to return to Tatooine, and Alok wants to take the Titan Security and the Scourge as his own, but these things are all things that Tang Xiao has worked hard for many years. How can it be so easy!
"Want to eat snake meat? You have to worry about being bitten by a snake..." Tang Xiao muttered, and he connected to a secret channel.
A 60-year-old white-haired woman with short, smart hair and a lady's suit appeared in the holographic projection, "Your Excellency, what are your orders?"
Director of the Fourth Civilization Intelligence Department, Mrs. M.
"Activate one of the hidden threads." Tang Xiao said calmly: "The Hutt—Ziro Desilijic."
"What do you need her to do?" Mrs. M asked directly.
"Ziro is greedy and has limited abilities. Don't tease her too early. Just tell her that her annoying nephew Jabba will be combined with Gadula Besadi in the near future, and then return to the tower in glory. Planet Tuyin," Tang Xiao said.
After a pause, he added: "Zi Luo has many contacts with Count Dooku, so it is best not for us to come forward in this matter, but in the name of Count Dooku. You should understand what I want to say."
"Yes." Mrs. M nodded.
"Also, how is the situation with Burka the Hutt?" Tang Xiao asked again.
This was the Hutt who had sold the extractor's information to Severance Tann.
"His current situation is not good, especially when the Hutt's recent actions have been somewhat biased towards the Republic. He who is hostile to the Republic will naturally be ostracized." Mrs. M replied.
"Then, these are the chess pieces you can use now." Tang Xiao said, "Go and do it."
"I will arrange it immediately." Mrs. M bowed deeply, took three steps back, and then closed the communication.
Before Tang Xiao had time to take a sip of water, communications from Count Dooku came one after another.
"I sincerely hope that you are satisfied with the hospitality just now, Lord Governor." Count Dooku said with a smile.
Tang Xiao smiled and nodded, "This is natural. I like this banquet very much."
"Actually, I was worried that you had already rested, but I must share this news with you as soon as possible. I hope it will not disturb you." Count Dooku said politely.
"It seems like this is definitely great news." Tang Xiao said.
"Indeed." Count Dooku nodded, "Our fleet won a complete victory in the battle on the planet Falin, annihilating an entire battle group of the incoming Galactic Republic, including 100 Jaeger-class battlecruisers. This battle battle, coupled with the Battle of Christophsis and the Battle of Bespin, I can say that the mobile fleet in the hands of the Republic has been completely lost. At least within two months, there will no longer be any force that can stop us. pace."
Tang Xiao nodded.
The Battle of Fallin Planet can be said to be a real head-on collision between the Galactic Republic and the Confederation of Independent Systems, which also happened in the original plot. Although there is not much description of this battle in the original plot, it can be seen from Master Windu's words at the time that the losses in this battle were extremely heavy, and the Republic at that time did not even have the power to reinforce the planet Christophsis.
Although the outbreak of the planet Christophsis is now brought forward due to some reasons, the battle of the planet Falin still breaks out as scheduled. But this time, Tang Xiao realized that the original reason for this battle was the Republic's attempt to open up the Corellia trade channel.
Over there, Count Dooku was still saying, "But to be honest, what surprised me the most was not the battle on the planet Falin, but that the planet Dawn once again defeated the Republic's fleet on the planet Bespin. This is definitely beyond me. The result of all my previous expectations and all my imagination, I must express my deepest respect for you.”
He bowed deeply to Tang Xiao, and then said: "I will hold the grandest celebration again tomorrow, which will last for three days, to celebrate this series of great victories. Miss Alia Isabel also agreed to give her best sacrifice for this celebration. Beautiful songs, I believe she, who is also from the Dawn Planet, can give you a better experience.”
"You're welcome, Count Dooku. I believe this will be a pleasant celebration, and I'm looking forward to it." Tang Xiao said.
Count Dooku changed the topic at this time and suddenly said: "By the way, I heard... that General Severance Tann was also involved in the battle on the planet Christophsis?"
"The Chairman of the Enterprise Alliance, Parcel Argent, offered a high price." Tang Xiao replied with a slight smile.
Count Dooku smiled knowingly, "I understand. Without the help of Dawn and the Interstellar Banking Association, Parcel Argent would have suffered a crushing defeat on Christophsis. But since the matter has been resolved, I will not punish him for it, and the Confederation will fully support the agreement between him and you. Christophsis is already the sphere of influence of the Confederation, and it is our duty to protect this planet."
This is what Tang Xiao really wanted to hear.
He understood that this was the compensation given to him by Count Dooku - compensation for the incident of luring him to the Venomous Fang battleship last time.
This is equivalent to recognizing the vested interests of Dawn and the Interstellar Banking Association on Christophsis, and jointly pushing Parcel Argent out to take the blame.
Fortunately, the battle was won, so Parcel Argent did not have to bear the blame so heavily. Of course, his dream of making a fortune on Christophsis was naturally unfulfilled.
Tang Xiao smiled and asked casually, "What about the Fang? I haven't heard any news about it during this period."
"The existence of the Fang battleship is still highly confidential, so it is normal that you cannot get news about it from other channels. Of course, you are not within the scope of confidentiality. What I can tell you is that the Fang is now operating on the Hydia hyperspace channel. General Grievous is in charge personally. His mission is to destroy the Republic's logistical supplies on the Hydia channel and prepare for our further combat operations." Count Dooku replied.
Tang Xiao nodded. The reason why he asked about the Fang was that he wanted to know the current situation of this super battleship, so as to judge when the Galactic Republic would launch the encirclement and suppression of the Fang in the plot.
He hoped to save the Fang, and on the other hand, once the Fang's actions attracted the attention of the Republic, then the actions of the other super battleship would not be so eye-catching.
As a result, while he was still thinking about this, Count Dooku also mentioned this, "In fact, relying on the Fang battleship alone is far from enough to block the Hydia Channel... So, I have a presumptuous request that you hope you can convey to Lord Angel of Death. I hope that his ship..."
"Plague." When Tang Xiao mentioned this name, his face changed a little, and he seemed a little scared, and even his tone was a little lower.
It must be said that one second on stage is ten years of hard work off stage. Ten years of hard work have made him grasp the micro-expressions just right.
"If Lord Angel of Death can send the Plague to help, I think we will be more confident. Once we cut off the Hydia Channel, we will be able to launch an assault on Kamino again and cut off the supply of clone soldiers of the Republic in one fell swoop." When Count Dooku said this, his face was full of murderous intent.
"I will convey it." Tang Xiao was a little scared and hesitant, but he nodded and agreed.
