757. As timid as a mouse
"You must save me, I don't want to die! Lord Archangel of Death!" Newt Gunray begged loudly to Tang Xiao in the holographic projection, "Lord Sidious will not let me go!"
When he saw the good news from Kato-Neimoidia, Newt Gunray knew that something was wrong. Now he began to worry about gains and losses again, and the determination he had made with gritted teeth was thrown out of the sky again.
In the Kato-Neimoidia raid, Galaxy Republic 2nd Legion 7th Fleet was almost wiped out, including 6 of its 7 capital ships.
Two Commander-class Dreadnoughts as flagships were successively destroyed by Plague. One Prosecutor-class battlecruiser was besieged by a large number of Hyena-class Droid Bomberss while rescuing the flagship, and finally lost control and crashed into a satellite.
Another two Prosecutor-class battlecruiser and one Governor-class battleship were also destroyed during the battle.
7th Fleet Only one of the seven giant battleships, Commander-class Dreadnought, returned with injuries. In addition, of the total 3,000 fighter jets in the fleet, only more than 800 returned, and countless other small and medium-sized warships were lost.
Moreover, more than 200,000 Republic Navy died in this battle, which can be said to be quite tragic. Among them, only more than 3,000 of the 86,000 crew members on the two Commander-class Dreadnought survived. Several other large battleships were also old battleships, so many crew members died along with the battleships.
After the war, Plague Titan warship did not leave, but temporarily joined the garrison sequence of Kato-Neimoidia and began to receive repairs and supplies locally.
Because of this terrible battleship, Galactic Republic urgently recalled all the reinforcement fleets heading towards Kato-Neimoidia.
One can imagine how angry Das-Sidious, who wanted to take this opportunity to destroy Plague Titan warship, was.
It's no wonder that as soon as Newt Gunlay saw the battle report, his legs became weak and he ran over to Tang Xiao for help.
"You know, now you should call me...Tang Xiao, well, it's better to add the title of Governor." Tang Xiao said with a smile.
"Lord Sidious will definitely kill me, he will definitely!" Newt Gunray panicked.
"Okay, you now know who he is, so you should understand that he will not leave Coruscant casually." Tang Xiao said seriously, "So, as long as the war does not fail for one day, you will always be safe."
Newt Gunray said eagerly, "But... he will... you will..." He didn't know how to describe it for a while, so he could only make random gestures.
Tang Xiao suddenly said, "Oh, you mean this?"
As he spoke, he gently raised his hand, and a the Force blew past Newt Gunray's neck like a breeze. Newt Gunray, who was already as frightened as a bird, jumped up with a loud scream and sat back on the ground.
Tang Xiao smiled coldly, "Of course I can make it impossible for Darth-Sidious to deal with you like this. However, in this way, he will understand the relationship between us, and maybe you will be in more trouble."
"Then he will definitely kill me, he will definitely..." Newt Gunray was already frightened.
"Go find Count Dooku." Tang Xiao said calmly.
"Count Dooku? Isn't he the apprentice of Darth-Sidious? If you look for him, you will be seeking your own death!" Newt Gunray was shocked.
"No, Count Dooku was actually deceived by Darth-Sidious. After all, no one wants to be a victim, right?" Tang Xiao said with a smile, "You go to Count Dooku and tell him that Darth-Sidious asked you to destroy Plague, but you didn't do it. That's all."
"He will definitely kill me too!" Newt Gunray yelled.
The smile at the corner of Tang Xiao's mouth became a little eerie, "This is your only way to survive, Newt Gunray. If you dare to come to Dawn Star Planet at this time, then you should understand that you will only die faster."
He moved his fingers, Dark Side Force brushed Newt Gunray's neck again, and then closed the communication with a sneer.
Newt Gunray sat on the ground with a dull face. After a long time, he stood up tremblingly.
"Are you sure this will succeed?" Helmut-Zemo's voice appeared next to Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao sat at the desk, but looked sideways out of the window, and said calmly, "It must succeed. Trade Federation is just the beginning. My real purpose is to completely get Count Dooku out of the control of Darth-Sidious! Only in this way can we survive the war. For this goal, I can pay any price."
"So this is the reason why you haven't revealed Palpatine's true identity?" Zemo said.
Tang Xiao picked up the cold coffee on the table and took a sip, and said, "Jedi Order is still strong, we need to wait until they are further weakened by the war. Moreover, if Palpatine's true identity is revealed now, we will lose Count Dooku... Then we can only fight against Darth-Sidious alone."
He stood up and walked towards the door, adding by the way, "Death."
He put on a black cloak and came to the secret Hangar Platform specially prepared for him in Glory mothership. The name of the plane he piloted was also 'Red Comet'. He also installed an additional sharp-angled Elite Class Viking fighter on the cockpit and flew towards Hoth Planet.
In that direction, a new storm is beginning to brew.
Newt Gunlay finally mustered up the greatest courage and went to Serenno to meet Count Dooku.
After he passed, he didn't dare to hide it, and told Plague Titan warship about the raid on Kato-Neimoidia, and then told Count Dooku that Darth-Sidious asked him to take the opportunity to destroy Plague, but he did not do it.
Not only did he fail to comply, he also cooperated with Plague to annihilate Republic's 7th Fleet...
Count Dooku just listened quietly to Newt Gunray's words, then stood up, waved his hand, and the holographic projection on the side was opened by invisible force, switching to the Confederacy of Independent Systems official news channel.
[Kato-Neimoidia wins! Plague Titan warship suddenly appeared on Republic Core Worlds and annihilated Republic's 7th Fleet in one fell swoop!]
[Kato-Neimoidia's fleet has completely broken free from the shackles, and now it will always threaten the heart of Galactic Republic!!]
[In the latest round of public opinion polls, more than 65% of voters agreed to award Sefrans-Admiral Tann to Fleet Admiral's Honor!]
Not only that, the video screen is still playing the dense Republic warship wreckage on the battlefield outside Kato-Neimoidia.
Especially the horrifying scenes of the two Commander-class Dreadnought's huge bodies, one broken into two pieces and the other directly beaten into a big crater, stimulated people's nerves.
