Chapter 781: Seeking Skin from a Tiger
780. Seeking Skin from a Tiger
“We Hutts are not afraid of what the Republic is going to do.” After hearing Mira Han’s words, Oruba snorted and said : "On the contrary, it's you, Mira Han. You have done too much in the war between the Desiligic family and the Besadi family. You have interfered in too many things among us Hutts. This is not a person who wants to live longer. What people should do.”
“The affairs of the Desiligic family and the Besadi family are their own choices. Zorba Desiligic has ruled the family for so many years. I understand the truth, and I'm just doing some work with his money," Mira Han said, "Let's go back to the planet Terminus. You also know that this planet took the initiative to join the Galactic Republic. It also means that your plan has failed."
"Humph!" Oruba looked very unhappy, "I said, the Republic has nothing to do with me."
"If you know anything about Wilhuff Tarkin's methods, then you should understand that once he takes over Terminus, you will have no chance at all. Don't forget, Terminus The planet had already reached an agreement with Tarkin and suddenly joined the Republic when we launched the attack. This caused us to encounter some unexpected difficulties. Do you think he will continue to tolerate your actions? "Mira? - Han said.
"Okay, let's talk about your conditions." Oruba agreed directly.
He was very quick in thinking and quickly figured out the problem.
Originally, when he came to the planet Terminus, he hoped to take advantage of the infighting between the two largest families of the Hutts, the Desiligic family and the Bethadi family, to expand a little. power.
You must know that the Gorensla family, as a new family, can only dig out pieces from others with great difficulty, whether in the Hutt space or among the countless smuggling routes across the galaxy. The cake is down to develop. Because the original sphere of influence had been divided long ago, and he no longer had a share.
The planet Terminus is his carefully selected target. As long as he can establish his own power here, he will be able to control a large area of smuggling activities in the Western Region of the Milky Way and the Wild Star Region.
At that point, the Gorensla family truly had the strength to compete with the Besadi family and the Desiligic family.
And Mira Han is right. With Wilhuff Tarkin's methods, he can't tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes. He can't just sit back and watch the Hutts do nothing on their own territory. .
It is an open secret that Wilhuff Tarkin is a fervent human supremacist.
"Conditions? This is not something I can say." Mira-Han clarified the relationship.
"Planet Dawn agrees with the Gorensla family to carry out any smuggling activities on the planet Terminus." Matt Horner said.
Oruba laughed out loud, "Hahahahaha! What do we Hutts need the consent of your little Dawn Planet? Hahahahaha!"
"Special The planet Erminus is not within the scope of Hutt space." Matt Horner sneered, getting to the point of getting to the point of the problem.
He has a stupid mouth, but that does not mean he is stupid in mind.
The smile on Oruba's face disappeared instantly, and he said slowly: "The planet Terminus is mine. I can agree to allow the Dawn Planet's fleet to supply supplies here, or rent a spaceport for them. You use it, but I have the final say on this planet.”
Matt Horner said calmly: "Do you want to manage this planet on the surface? I don't care. But does the Hutt Grand Council really allow it?"
"Building a planetary self-government, It’s a familiar journey for the Gorensla family.” Oruba glanced at Matt Horner. "This is not the result of our army from Dawn Planet throwing their lives and blood, and then letting you Hutts enjoy the fruits of their labor. If that were the case, we would rather fight to the death." Matt Horner refused directly.
Then he stated his conditions, "The government of the planet Terminus must be nominally under the rule of the Dawn planet, the officials must be appointed by us, and we will send security guards The army will stabilize the security of the planet. At the same time, our space fleet will also be stationed to defend against the Republic's counterattack. In return, we will grant you permission to smuggle on the planet and ensure your uniqueness on the planet..."
As he spoke, he pulled out a prepared list, "At the same time, our escort fleet can also provide protection for your smuggling caravan. However, on the surface, we will declare your gang It is illegal and you are prohibited from carrying out any activities on the planet Terminus."
"You want too much! Planet Dawn! You know, you are asking me for help now!" Oruba said.
Matt Horner crossed his arms and said: "For us, if this offensive fails, we can temporarily retreat. The next attack on the planet Terminus will be the Confederacy of Independent Systems The highest military commander, General Grievous."
"It is impossible for Grievous to pay attention to this remote planet!"
"It is remote, but it is also a transportation artery! ”
The two argued for more than an hour and finally reached an agreement. During this time, Mira Han had long been bored and quit the communication to do her own things.
"Then, it's a matter of planning. How do you want me to help you? Let's talk about it first, I don't want to do anything too troublesome." Oruba Gorensla said.
“First, try to use your influence to get those mercenaries and bounty hunters hired by the Republic to leave. Second, about the matter of Fermos, the capital of the planet Terminus. Yeah..." Matt Horner said with a stern face.
......
Three days later, the capital of the planet Terminus, the western suburbs of Fermos City.
In this direction, the Fourth Civilization Army finally launched an attack again.
Different from the previous attack, this time, the Fourth Civilization Army used a large number of reinforced robots to launch a charge. They changed their previous flexible and sharp tactics and transformed into the same attack method as the robot legions from other directions of the Confederation of Independent Systems.
That is to continuously attack with a sea-like army of robots.
However, with the current supply methods of the Fourth Civilization, their robot army is far from being described as a sea. Such a desperate attack cannot pose a fatal threat to the defense line of the Republic Army.
But after all, the Republic's clone army is too small in number and the pressure is still huge. Therefore, in order to ensure sufficient strength, the 18th Army has been spending a lot of money to recruit bounty hunters and mercenaries in the underground black market to join the war. .
In the past few days, perhaps because the price offered by the 18th Army is indeed very attractive, there seem to be a lot more mercenary teams coming to sign up to join the war...
