"Lead the family's defense fleet... to fight against pirates..." Casio Tagg trembled: "Who doesn't know that our family's main business is in the inner ring and core circle! Who doesn't know that our family's defense fleet has been continuously operating for thousands of years?
Updated, but never dispatched!"
"You should feel honored, Casio." Sonya Tag said: "Our family's defense fleet has always maintained a scale of 5,000 battleships. Although it is mainly small and medium-sized battleships, this scale has exceeded most planets in the galaxy.
Moreover, there are 1 million family defense armies, all of which will be under your leadership. In this way, your aura as a top student of the military academy will not be lost."
When she said this, she actually meant half of it to Tang Xiao next to her.
That's right, the Tagg family was one of the founder families when the Galactic Republic was founded 25,000 years ago. It can be said to be one of the oldest and noblest families in the galaxy!
Their family runs a giant comprehensive enterprise, Targ Corporation. Its hundreds of subsidiaries can be said to be involved in all aspects, and their business covers the entire core circle and inner ring of the galaxy.
And as Sonya Tagg said, in order to protect the interests of their family, the Tagg family has a fleet of up to 5,000 warships and an army of 1 million people! And this force, whether it was in the previous Clone Wars
At the height of the conflict, even when Palpatine issued a decree as Speaker to cancel all planetary defense fleets, it had no impact on this force!
Palpatine would not be stupid enough to challenge the intricate forces of such an ancient and powerful family, not to mention that the Tagg family is actually very upright. They cut off ties with the Confederacy of Independent Systems as soon as the war broke out.
The business dealings between the five major corporate giants (Trade Federation, Interstellar Banking Association, Enterprise Alliance, Technology Alliance, and Commercial Guild), and firmly stand on the side of the Republic.
After the establishment of the Empire, the Tagg family was one of the first families to come out to support Palpatine's claim to the throne.
This is why the previous raid on the Model Sector failed so miserably, but whether it was Palpatine or Dunn Wessex, or even Wilhuff who had a hard time dealing with Dunn Wessex-
Tarkin never thought of making a fuss about Cassio Targ, the fleet commander, in order to strike a political blow at the other party.
On the contrary, they tacitly defended Casio Tagg's battle and tried every means to downplay his defeat. Even in all senses, Casio Tagg was definitely to blame for this disastrous defeat.
Tang Xiao just smiled slightly when facing Sanya's words. There were only 5,000 warships, and most of them were small and medium-sized warships. Nothing could threaten him. The only thing he found strange was that whether this was in the original plot
Then and now, the Tagg family, which has always firmly supported the current government of the galaxy, why did they suddenly become interested in him?
Even the patriarch of the family came secretly.
You must know that for a person of Sonya Tag's level, every move she makes receives widespread attention. She has to come to the Dawn Planet in person, and the preparations for all aspects of disguise can be said to be extremely expensive and precise.
Unparalleled!
But he didn't speak, because on the other side, Casio Tagg quit first.
"I refuse!" Casio Tagg shouted.
"What did you say?" Sonya Tagana's elegant face showed an angry look, "What are you thinking about? Are you used to being a prisoner?"
"I refuse!" Cassio Tagg still insisted, "If I go back now, what difference will it make to death! If you ask me to lead the family defense fleet, does that mean that the imperial military has given up on me!?"
"Do you think that after suffering such a disastrous defeat, the Imperial military will still use you? No. Because you are not even an Imperial soldier now! You are just a captured former Galactic Republic general!" Sonya-Ta
Gerard said in a higher tone. It was obvious that she was also very disappointed with this son.
"This failure should not be blamed on me!" Casio Tagg shouted loudly.
"Do you think the support given to you is insufficient? Do you think you have the right to serve as the commander of this battle with your qualifications? Why do you think the Dark Jedi led by Jan Droga and the others came to reinforce you so easily?
Don’t you understand? I gave you so much support, but what you handed Palpatine was still a disastrous defeat! Do you think our family has not embarrassed you enough?!” Sonya Tower
Ge said loudly.
"No! Things shouldn't be like this!! I...my ability is by no means limited to this!!" Casio Tag said loudly.
He has dreamed of being a soldier since he was a child, dreaming of galloping among the stars and the sea! Dreaming of commanding an army to conquer the east and west to make achievements! For this he has worked harder than others, and he has surpassed the second place with very excellent results.
Become the number one in the military academy!
He thought that he could still achieve this without relying on the strength of his family. He believed that he definitely had such ability!
But... all this ended completely after the raid in the Model Sector!
The raid in the Model Sector was his peak, but also his end?
"This is absolutely impossible!!" Casio Tagg said his thoughts loudly.
Tang Xiao touched his chin and watched the quarrel between mother and son with great interest, not knowing what he was thinking.
"This is non-negotiable!! The day you stay here as a prisoner, the more shame your family will suffer!" Sonya Tagg's face flushed with excitement. If the person in front of her was not her son, she would have turned away and left him to fend for himself.
.
She turned around suddenly and looked at Tang Xiao and said: "I made you laugh, Your Excellency. The ransom is still the same as before, one billion empire credits in cash, plus the right to use a secret channel leading to the inner ring star area. You guys
The spacecraft can use this channel after we have inspected and confirmed that no people or materials for military purposes have entered. Don't care what he thinks, I brought a security robot and I can carry him back."
"Besides that, how else do you plan to cooperate with me? Mrs. Tagg, with a position as high as yours, you shouldn't know that sooner or later there will be another war between Palpatine and me, right?" Tang Xiao sneered.
He said.
"I just hope that there will be more cooperation opportunities with the Principality of Dawn. I believe that with the strength of Tag Company, we can easily achieve any cooperation you want," Sonya Tag said.
"How about hedging your bets... Haha, that's interesting..." Tang Xiao touched his chin, "In that case, I have a suggestion..."
"Please tell me."
Tang Xiao crossed his hands to support his chin and said slowly: "Madam, you don't want to see your son sink to this level, right?"
