Chapter 1978 The Reluctant War
1979, The Reluctant War
Tang Xiao pondered for a while. During the communication on his invisible headset, the cabinet, general staff, and diplomacy behind him The team at the department is also closely following the process of this conversation and giving Tang Xiao some advice.
For example, just now Tang Xiao suddenly killed several assistants of the delegation. In fact, it was Helmut Zemo who gave him advice and asked him to put some pressure on the Chiss delegation. Then the pressure that Tang Xiao understood was killing people.
Then, he asked: "So, have you had any contact with the fleet of Grisk Hegemony?"
"I have been in contact with them many times. The types of their warships are very monotonous. The main battleships only have two or three types of warships. But there are indeed many, and they don't even know how to retreat during combat. Even if the opponent is stronger, they will not retreat." The Nurudo family said.
“Is it because they are all being controlled?” Tang Xiao asked with a frown.
“This is one aspect. On the other hand, we can also see from the Grisk Hegemony’s behavior that the Grisk people are extremely conceited and will never accept failure. They are always the ones who initiate the attack. On the one hand..." the Nurudo family said, "However, they generally do not provoke those races that are stronger than them, and they mostly accumulate their own strength in secret. Of course, if they are provoked, they will not do anything. Do not hesitate to retaliate in the most extreme way."
"Oh?" Tang Xiao was interested and asked: "Do you think Griske Hegemony thinks you are stronger than them?"
“We have judged that the military and industrial capabilities of the Grisk Hegemony are relatively backward. This is also an important basis for us to believe that they are a starship civilization-their warships have not been updated for a long time. Yes. So based on the simulation, we believe that as long as the war process is limited to the fleet combat level, we will be able to repel the Grisk Hegemony fleet. But..." The Nurudo family looked embarrassed.
"But what?" Tang Xiao asked.
“However, if we really go to war with the Grisk Hegemony, then we will face many internal problems. As mentioned before, we have no idea whether there are people who have been controlled hiding in the We are around us, or the possibility of this is very high... So once we decide to go to war, we will first be in chaos..." The Nurudo family said, "Moreover, I am afraid that the Grisk people have been hiding in many places, and we There is no way to exterminate them."
He took a deep breath, full of fear for this civilization known as the legendary species, and then said: "For example, a Grisk is hiding in a certain city or colony. What will happen? They will easily distort the memory and cognition of everyone in the city, making them think that the Grisk in front of them is just an ordinary resident. I can't think of any way yet. You can find it."
"Just like Menggar-Menggar?" Tang Xiao suddenly connected these two unrelated existences.
The Nurudo family was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant, nodded and said: "Yes... it's the same as Mongal-Mongal. Maybe we can defeat them, but we can never eradicate them. ”
Tang Xiao snorted coldly, as if his mood suddenly became very bad. He waved his hands and didn't bother to speak, just to indicate to the Chiss delegation that they could leave.
After the Nurudo family supported the Cipula family and wisely exited the banquet hall, Tang Xiao's gloomy expression could no longer be concealed. He slapped the huge banquet table with a bang, and the powerful force instantly smashed the more than ten-meter-long table into countless pieces!
"Zemo! This is your plan! You actually found such a troublesome enemy for me!!" Tang Xiao growled.
A secret door opened at the back of the banquet hall, and Zemo, who was waiting inside, ran out quickly. He said eagerly: "Your Majesty, Grisk's hegemony is indeed beyond our expectations... ...I have just contacted people from the Saberson family, and they said that they did not expect that the colony on the planet Borg-Lei was actually owned by Grisk."
"The colony is not. What a little toy! You can't even tell which civilization this huge colony belongs to?" Tang Xiao asked angrily.
Zemo was sweating profusely, lowered his head and said: "According to the Sabersen family, on the planet Borg-Lei, they always thought it was a small marginal colony. And in that direction, the Kilji Illumine, the Kingdom of Light, The scope... The Kingdom of Light, Gilgi, is a theocratic country, and they also include a large number of races that convert to their religion-the way of enlightenment."
At this time, the door of the banquet hall opened, including the general staff. All relevant personnel, including Chang Qijian, Prime Minister Francis Underwood, and Minister of Military Intelligence Saratan Moss, ran in.
This banquet is equivalent to a state negotiation between the Fourth Civilization and the Chiss. Naturally, it is impossible for Tang Xiao to drink with them here alone. All this had been arranged long ago.
“We have further confirmed...Grisk Hegemony indeed rarely establishes colonies. All the vassal races controlled by them have basically abandoned their home planets, so they should be starship civilizations ...So the Sabersen family never expected that their colony would be bombed..." Qi Jian was also sweating profusely.
Indeed, if what the Nurudo family just said is true, then this conspiracy of Dawn Planet seems to have shot itself in the foot.
This time the Borg-Lei planet incident was actually a conspiracy of the Dawn Principality, which planned to push the Chiss into a war, and then use this war to pull the Chiss into their own tanks.
Led by the Military Intelligence Department, the Dawn Principality secretly contacted the Saberson family, which was at odds with the Cipra family. Their original plan was for the Sabersons to secretly tamper with the data about the corruption god Mongar Mongar in the Chisland database, and add the planet Borg-Re to it, making everyone think that this planet has been destroyed. Infected by Mongal-Mongal.
The Borg-Lei planet is actually an inconspicuous planet, but it may indeed have an owner. It seems to be a perfect target for launching a plan.
At the same time, the reason why this matter was not approached by the Nurudo family, who was in charge of the military, was actually based on considerations. As a family in charge of the military, the Nurudo family is naturally looking forward to such a war. However, if the Dawn Principality takes the initiative to go to them and expresses its willingness to drag the Chiss into the war, the Nurudo family will definitely not agree.
So we can only go around in a circle, start a war by cooperating with other families, and then deepen the cooperation with the Nurudo family during the war, thereby further expanding the influence of the Dawn Principality in the Qis Territory. , eventually leading to a subordinate relationship with the Chiss Territory, making the Chiss people become vassals of the Principality of Dawn.
I thought this plan was very well thought out, but the only problem was that I never expected that it would not be the Guilgi Kingdom of Light that would be offended, but the Grisk Hegemony! !
"The Nurudo family was right just now. We have no way to completely eliminate the Grisk hegemony. They are too weird! Moreover, are things here going to evolve like those in the Xilu Empire? Is it genocide?" Prime Minister Francis Underwood looked particularly unhappy.
This kind of national-level diplomatic affairs naturally required Francis to participate, but he learned about such a magical and troublesome race.
"According to what the Nurudo family just said, we should indeed send the robot army there." Qi Jian nodded in agreement.
"That's right, that's right! Find Geth and let Geth take care of Grisk's hegemony!" Francis Underwood quickly agreed.
Tang Xiao glanced at him coldly, and Francis' words stopped abruptly. He felt the displeasure of Grand Duke Liming. "Geth? Do you think Geth is omnipotent? My dear Prime Minister." Tang Xiao asked coldly.
"No...it's just that they are easier to use than ordinary combat robots..." Francis lowered his head and answered.
“This idea is really stupid, Your Excellency Prime Minister.” Helmut Zemo looked on at the side with a sinister look. “Don’t you know that Geth is only allied with the Grand Duke? The partner of Geth’s alliance. But it has never been our fourth civilization. Including their cooperation with the Kali people and the Interstellar Banking Association, it is all based on the request of the Grand Duke. In other words, if one day, the Geth suddenly takes over the planet Mequito. It's possible that it will be destroyed."
"This is about a war! We can't choose!" Francis Underwood didn't dare to disobey Tang Xiao, but he was right. Helmut Zemo, the sycophant, was very unhappy, but he was still willing to fight back.
"Hmph! To fight against the Galactic Empire, we need to find the Geth. To help with the industrialization of the North, we need to find the Geth. To fight against Mongar-Mongar, we need to find the Geth. Now that we are at war with the Grisk Hegemony, we need to find the Geth again. So why not? Let's all just commit suicide, and the Grand Duke will take the geth to conquer the galaxy?" Zemo said with a cold snort.
“This is just the most appropriate use of the most appropriate power!” Francis Underwood was still retorting, “If our people are controlled by the Grisk people, then they They will definitely use this as a bridge to infiltrate our principality silently! The threat of the Grisk people is even greater than that of Mongar Mongar!” This matter of intervention is indeed very inappropriate, but Francis's opinion is still very pertinent. We cannot allow the Grisks to have the opportunity to infiltrate," Qi Jian said.
"This is not necessary. It sounds like the Grisk people are a race that relies on mind control or brain wave control, and we also have experts in this area." Minister of Military Intelligence Saratan Moss said gloomily said.
"Hahahaha! That's right, Moss. That's what I mean." Tang Xiao laughed, "Tell the protoss about Grisk's hegemony and let them solve the matter. Then, establish a squadron, all equipped with B-1 combat robots, commanded by T-series tactical robots."
Qi Jian nodded, "Should the protoss be the one to command this fleet?"
"No, the fleet command will be given to the Chiss. The protoss only need to focus on dealing with the Grisk." And I guess they don't have much interest in commanding our fleet." Tang Xiao waved his hand and said to Zemo, "Go tell the Chiss that this fleet is commanded by their defense fleet, Admiral Chiara. Leader. And remember, she is from the Eliz family, we need to do the opposite..."
"Alienate the Eliz family...I know how to arrange it, my lord. "Helmut Zemo bowed deeply, with a satisfied smile on his lips.
"That's it." Tang Xiao was also fed up. He stood up and said coldly: "We planned a war, and now this war has started, and the goal has been achieved. Only However, the target of the war is just a bit inappropriate... Although we are reluctant, since the war has begun, let’s not keep it as planned and get everything we want in the unknown star field.”
"As you wish... Grand Duke." Zemo bowed deeply.
Others also saluted and watched Tang Xiao leave.
......
After receiving the news that the Principality of Dawn decided to send troops, the representatives of the Chisi Territory, the Nurudo family and the Cipla family, finally breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time they also felt endless of sorrow.
Because this dispatch of troops means that Qisi Ling can no longer break free from the clutches of the Dawn Principality.
The Nurudo family also specifically approached relevant personnel of the Dawn Principality and asked how big a squadron would be based on the naval establishment of the Dawn Principality.
He got the answer - the size of the squadron is 10 thousand-meter battleships, 30 cruisers and other heavy battleships, and 150 small battleships and auxiliary battleships.
The Nurudo family finally understood that the current garrison of the Dawn Principality in Qisi Territory was also a squadron.
That is to say, the Principality of Dawn will invest the power of two squadrons this time to deal with this war against Grisk's hegemony. This number is actually similar to the current number of the Chiss Territory's navy, but considering that the performance of the warships of the Dawn Principality far exceeds that of the Chiss Territory's warships, this force is already second to none in the unknown star field.
It seems that this time the Dawn Principality is determined to win.
At the same time, the Nurudo family also learned that the Principality of Dawn requested that the Admiral of the Chiss Defense Fleet, Eliz Al-Alani Ziara of the Eliz Family, command the fleet. .
This result was a bit unexpected, but it made the Nurudo family feel good. They felt that this was the Principality of Dawn showing its sincerity. At the same time, he also knew that the Principality of Dawn did not seem to have a very good relationship with the Eliz family, which made him feel better about the decision of the Principality of Dawn.
......
Another week passed, and Tang Xiao received a notification from Helmut Zemo.
"Your Majesty the Grand Duke, the Star Spirits are here." Zemo said.
"Oh? It's finally here. So, which tribe is here? Who is the leader?" Tang Xiao asked.
Zemo replied: "The people coming are the Akilae Tribe, led by the high-ranking templar Rassidan."
