2226. Trade Federation's decision
"Scorpion Annihilator (Scorpenek annihilator droid)?! Are you sure?" Hunter looked serious, "This kind of combat robot should not appear here! Isn't this a secret weapon produced by Separatists during Saleucami Planet's final resistance?"
Crosshair continued to adjust the focus, nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sure. There are at least three Scorpion Annihilator Droidss on this rail truck... and they are still transporting more supplies. Wait a minute, there are Guardians coming down... These Guardians... bastards..."
"What's wrong?"
"It's the sign of Titan Security Company." Crosshair said in a deep voice. "It seems that although Duchy of Dawn is not directly involved in this war, they are still providing help to Trade Federation by providing mercenaries."
At the loading and unloading site, only a team of heavily armed soldiers wearing black combat uniforms were seen directing the B-1 combat robots to transport the goods. And these people all have an A-shaped mark on their chests. There is no doubt that these warriors are one of the most powerful and notorious mercenary groups in the galaxy - Atlas, Titan Security Company!
It is said that this security company started from Hutt Space and has been employed by Hutt for a long time. It helps Hutt's criminal group carry out various sabotage, robbery, debt collection and other businesses. It is known for its well-equipped and ruthless nature. Moreover, this security company is probably secretly supported by Duchy of Dawn, because many of their equipment come from Duchy of Dawn.
"Imperial Intelligence Department has always been strange. The behavior of Trade Federation's army this time is completely different from that of Separatists in the past. It seems that Titan Security Company should have provided them with military advisory services... and these equipment... Damn it!" Hunter slammed the ground, "What is the state of those Scorpion Annihilator Droids?"
"Activated state, guarding the surrounding area." Crosshair said.
The technician added on the side, "I'm sure these robots didn't find us, but if we continue to move forward, it's hard to say."
"Go around here and don't go head-to-head with Scorpion Annihilator Droids. One of these robots can block the attack of a battalion of our troops!" Hunter said, "Currently our goal is to collect intelligence, and we must find out who sent these Scorpion Annihilator to Trade Federation."
Clearance King touched his head, "Ha! I always thought that these robots had been destroyed after Separatists was destroyed! It seems that General Vader did not completely destroy Separatists!"
Hunter shook his head and said, "We Saleucami planetary battle also participated at that time, as you know. The battle situation at that time was so chaotic that we didn't even know how we won in the end. After that, many Separatists stars The ball actually surrendered. Although punishments were imposed, not many were actually implemented. In addition, the fleets of Sefrans-Tann located at Mandalore star sector are very active, and the area is still in chaos..."
The technician looked up at the sky and murmured to himself, "I'm just worried that Kato-Neimoidia may drag the Empire into a hard battle. In fact, I have been making statistics. Currently, there are 170 legions of army numbers that can be confirmed, among which 20 Human legion, more than 150 robot corps. According to the establishment of Trade Federation, the strength of Human legion is 12,000, and the establishment of the robot corps is 50,000 units... and there are many heavy armored corps among them."
"Of course, Trade Federation is so rich, haha." Ye Zi said with a smile, "On Kato-Neimoidia, at least 30% of the wealth of Trade Federation is concentrated. It is absolutely correct to say that this is Wealth World... Moreover, General Vader has not directly landed on a large scale. I am afraid one of the important reasons is that I am worried that Bridge City will not be successfully won."
"Bridge City is a suspended city. Trade Federation has repeatedly threatened it. If Bridge City cannot be protected, then they would rather blow up the arched rock formation and let the whole city fall Abyss. Nothing will be gained." Iron Box said, "In the final analysis, it is still to grab money!"
"Are you robbing money... Haha..." The technician smiled a little bitterly. He thought of the young technical soldier who stayed at his post to the end a few days ago and helped him crack the Trade Federation communication channel. "Are all our sacrifices just to grab money..."
"Don't think too much, this is a very dangerous thing." Crosshair said, "We just need to obey the order."
The technician lowered his head and remained silent. After a long time, he took a deep breath, raised his head and said, "The key now should be the 'Christmas gift'. As long as you follow this line, you will definitely be able to find it."
Dawn Star Planet, Duchy Palace.
After waiting for more than two hours, Newt Gunlay was finally able to walk into Grand Duke of Dawn Tang Xiao's office. Having been in contact with Fourth Civilization for so long, he also knew the etiquette here, so he took off the tall hat he had been wearing for a long time and held it in his hand.
Neimoidian cannot do without hats, not only because hats are a symbol of their status, but also because they look really ugly when they take off their hats. There is not a single hair on their wrinkled scalp, which looks like a moldy orange. But Newt Gunray did it anyway. He grabbed the hat with both hands and rubbed it awkwardly in his hands.
Arriving in front of Tang Xiao, Newt Gunray did not dare to raise his head, but bowed deeply.
"Put on your hat." Tang Xiao said calmly, "Looking at your scalp really affects my mood."
"Yes...Grand Duke..." Newt Gunray said, putting on his hat solemnly, and then raised his head, "Big..."
Tang Xiao raised his hand and interrupted him, "It is absolutely impossible to send troops directly."
"But..."
"What I am giving now is the greatest assistance I can give." Tang Xiao obviously did not intend to let Newt Gunray speak. He waved his hand again and continued, "You should have understood that if you stop the war and join the Empire, then you don't even have the chance to stand here and talk to me. At the same time, you should also feel lucky that I didn't choose to swallow you up like Darth-Sidious."
"I..."
"The reason why I asked you to come here is because I will give you a guarantee now." Tang Xiao pushed a paper document on the table and said, "In this guarantee, Duchy of Dawn will admit Trade Federation's status in the existing Wealth World, the industrial world, and the customer world. In other words, when our fleet attacks Core Worlds, the planets on the list will still be yours."
Newt Gunray grabbed the document and read it quickly and carefully, but after a moment, he raised his head blankly, "Sir... what does nationalization... mean?"
"Did you see Fourth Group? That's what it means." Tang Xiao replied, "I will help you with real money, and the technology of the battleship has also been handed over to you to assist you in Makito establishes a new headquarters. At the same time, residents on Neimoidia can also transfer and leave through Rendili Planet. These are real things. You don't think I don't want anything in return?"
