1964, Chiss territory (Part 1)
A shuttle took off from Eternal Super Carrier and flew towards Admiral Qiyala's flagship, Nightdragon-class Heavy Cruiser Sentinel.
By the way, the official shuttle of Duchy of Dawn is still the Neimoidian Scyk-class shuttle (Sheathipede-class shuttle) produced by Haor Chall Engineering, a subsidiary of Trade Federation. This model of shuttle is so classic. Even in the original plot of "Star Wars", the Scarab-class shuttle was still used until the end of the Galactic Empire.
Of course, the Scarab-class shuttle has also undergone many modifications. The current model has more outstanding performance, improved protection and comfort, and a more beautiful appearance. It is also very close to the shipbuilding style of Duchy of Dawn.
Second Exploration Fleet Chief Commander Lieutenant General Brent, Deputy Commander Kace-Maxwell Captain, these two strange combinations with very different military ranks but similar positions are in the shuttle, accompanied by two negotiators, a etiquette robot and two attendants.
They didn't bring guards, because Kace-Maxwell said that if there was a conflict, he could handle it. If he couldn't handle it, sending guards would be useless. Lieutenant General Brent is very confident in the combat effectiveness of this thorn. After all, during the fleet sailing, Kace fully demonstrated this in the training ground.
In addition, although the commander-in-chief and deputy commander of Second Exploration Fleet are not here, it does not mean that the fleet will not be fortified. On the contrary, this fleet has become more dangerous - because the one they left to command the fleet is T-series tactical robot!
Once they are kidnapped or detained, T-series tactical robot will cold-bloodedly execute the preset combat orders, even if it leads to the death of Brent.
The shuttle flew in front of Admiral Qiyala's flagship. Kace-Maxwell looked out the window at this spaceship, which was completely different from the angular and mechanical shipbuilding style in the Milky Way, and said with interest, "The shape of their spaceship is quite strange..."
"Did you see anything?" Lieutenant General Brent asked.
"This is a battleship. I mean... it is the kind of battleship that is built purely with artillery warfare as the main idea without considering carrier-based aircraft." Kace said, "The shape of this ship is not a shape that makes full use of space, so it will definitely not have a large built-in hangar. But I think this shape must be related to their unique reactor and energy transmission system."
"You know a lot." Brent smiled.
"Although after boarding the mothership, my past memories are blurred, but I think... I spent my whole life on the spaceship." Kace-Maxwell said.
Brent nodded and said nothing.
The shuttle quickly entered from the entrance behind the Nightdragon-class Heavy Cruiser and landed in a small Hangar Platform. Chiss Defense Fleet Admiral of the Navy Eliz Al-Alani-Ziyala is waiting in front.
She is taller than expected, nearly 1.8 meters tall, which makes her even more majestic than she looks on the screen.
"General Brent, on behalf of Chiss territory, I would like to welcome you." Admiral Qiyala gave a military salute.
"This is also our honor." Brent and Kace also returned the military salute.
They walked all the way towards the bridge. Although Admiral Qiyala showed a serious attitude, Kace-Maxwell was an uncontrollable chatterbox. He took the initiative to lean in and talk. "I heard before that your Chiss cabinet has four major ruling families, right?"
"Nine, actually." Ziyala replied seriously, "It's just that four of the families are the strongest, so they are called Ruling Families. There are five other families that are less powerful, but they are also members of the cabinet."
"Oh~~So all your affairs are discussed and decided by the nine-member cabinet?" Kace suddenly realized.
"All matters submitted to the cabinet are military and national affairs. If they are ordinary matters, they will be resolved in the parliament. Chiss territory's parliament is composed of representatives from the major colonies." Ziyala did not hide anything about Chiss territory's political system, and gave them a popular education, "Of course, matters between Duchy of Dawn will naturally be handled by Four Great Families personally."
Lieutenant General Brent nodded silently. He knew that a government like Chiss territory was actually an oligarchic democracy. A model between autocracy and democracy.
"Ah, so to be able to cultivate such a beautiful and powerful general like you, your family must also be a great family, right?" Kace-Maxwell started doing what he is best at - flirting with girls.
Even the two negotiators behind them couldn't help but cast strange looks at him. This guy is really a vegetarian...
The Admiral Qiyala in front of her is obviously not a beauty. She looks to be over 40 years old, and her angular cheeks make her look majestic, but it cannot match her beauty.
Then this guy Kace turned out to be... Could it be that he didn't want to fight anymore?
Ziyala looked back at Kace and said lightly, "Illyz family is indeed one of the nine cabinet members, but it is not one of Four Great Families. Illyz family has strong strength in the national defense force and education." After saying that, he nodded to Kace.
Lieutenant General Brent and others are all shocked... aren't they? It sounds like Admiral Qiyala's tone has softened a lot! Kace-Maxwell This guy can't...
However, thanks to Kace's mouth, he kept chatting with Ziyala along the way. Although Ziyala was very secretive about their military affairs, he still asked a lot about Chiss's cultural customs.
I have to sigh, because he is handsome and can speak well, so he will never suffer any loss wherever he goes.
When they followed Admiral Qiyala's flagship to dock at the spaceport outside Csilla (Csilla), Chiss's home planet, they already knew a lot about Chiss.
Kace-Maxwell not only chatted with Ziyala, but after discovering that although the general's attitude changed in the end, he still refused to accept others, he went to hook up with several other female soldiers and learned a lot.
Of course, it is a pity for Brent that he failed to hook up with Ziyala.
In the family palace in the center of Csaplar (Csaplar), the capital of Csilla, Brent and others received a meeting with the cabinet, the highest governing body of Chiss territory.
Among them, the leader of Four Great Families sits in the center, and the leaders of the other five ruling families sit on both sides. They all wear clothes of different colors to distinguish each other's families.
"Welcome, the messenger of Duchy of Dawn. We want to know, is it peace or war that Duchy of Dawn brings to us Chiss territory?"
