"The Angeliac family?" Tang Xiao thought for a moment and didn't have much impression of this Hutt family. He looked down at the family's information and muttered: "Dark Harbor? Shadow Dawn? They are related to the Bloody Dawn.
What does it matter?"
Ling Liang shook his head and replied: "It doesn't matter, it's just that the names are the same. Moreover, it is an assassin organization, the death warriors and killers hired by these Hutts all over the galaxy, and it has nothing to do with Bloody Dawn. Angeliac
The family's actions have always been relatively low-key, and they are one of the oldest families in the Hutt space. Will they abandon the old order so resolutely and join the emerging upstarts of the Gorensla family? I reserve my opinion on this."
"Send a team of ghost agents to the Hutt space to find out what the Angeliac family is doing." Tang Xiao said, "Also, Jabba is still not found?"
"No." Ling Liang said, "No, he is missing. Not only that, even his nephew Gorga is also missing. Gorga has always been the accountant of the Desiligic family and is in charge of financial power.
His disappearance also took away most of the wealth of the Desiligic family."
"Are you saying that if such a large amount of money flows to other places, it may be detrimental to us?" Tang Xiao said.
"There is no doubt about it. Moreover, Jabba has been colluding with Palpatine all along. If he took this wealth, coupled with his connections in the criminal underground world and smuggling network, he defected to the Galactic Empire.
If so, I think the pressure on the Trade Alliance will be even greater," Ling Liang said.
"Oruba, this loser! He actually let Jabba escape under such circumstances!" Tang Xiao said fiercely, "Let the Military Intelligence Department chase! Send out the Salarian special service troops as well. No matter life or death, I
Just see Jabba coming to me!"
"I'll arrange it immediately." Ling Liang nodded.
"By the way, can the location of the Black Port be found? Are there any of our agents there? If necessary, if the Angeliac family is really disobedient, then blow up the Black Port." Tang Xiao said.
Ling Liang said: "The structure of the Black Port is very strong and has a diameter of more than 100 kilometers. Unless we send a fleet there, we can't destroy it. However, we have infiltrated a lot of people in the Black Port. It is a free port.
, it is actually very easy to sneak in. But... it is almost impossible to obtain the most confidential information about Blackport and the Angeliac family. Their security work is very good. After all, they have relied on smuggling for thousands of years.
He started out as an assassin. But...we did get a unique piece of information."
"explain."
"The actual speaker of the Angeliac family is called Tis-Dolan. She is not a Hutt, but an Ullian." Ling Liang said.
"Interesting... keep an eye on her." Tang Xiao nodded, "Anyway, now, we need to increase our intelligence investment in the Hutt space."
After that, Tang Xiao discussed the recent domestic affairs of the Dawn Principality with Ling Liang, BIG-BOSS, and Volgograd-Kanidi district governors, as well as the advancement of Operation Zero.
After the meeting, Tang Xiao returned to the Grand Duke's Mansion. He nodded casually at Adele Wulan who came to greet him, and turned to look in the direction of the study. At this time, his two children Tang Xing and Tang Yun
Should be taking cultural courses.
Tang Xiao waved his hand to signal Adele Ulan to step back, and he walked slowly towards the study.
His movements were so subtle that neither the teacher nor the two children in the study noticed his arrival. At this moment, the lecture was over and the two children were doing classwork.
Tang Xiao dodged behind Tang Yun and saw the little girl concentrating on writing her homework. Today's class is politics. For a family like Grand Duke Liming, it should be considered a royal family, and the importance of politics is very high.
And many of them are tied to reality.
What Tang Yun is writing is an analysis of the connection between the Trade Federation and the Galactic Republic's outer-ring star region governance system. Although the content she writes is still relatively superficial, it can be seen that in this regard, she is far beyond
of peers.
Tang Xiao nodded and turned to look at Tang Xing... However, his face instantly turned gloomy. Tang Xing was secretly drawing under the table at this moment!
Tang Xiao snorted coldly. In the study room, the teacher and the two children noticed him. The teacher quickly bowed his head and saluted. Tang Xiao waved his hand to tell him to get out. Tang Yun bowed to Tang Xiao politely and said, "Father, sir."
.”
Tang Xing looked up at Tang Xiao's expression and knew something was wrong. He tried to hide the painting he drew, but Tang Xiao just raised his hand gently and the paper flew into his hand.
After looking at it, I saw that it was a landscape painting, but the scenery was a bit blurry. It was more like an intention than a specific object.
Tang Xiao's original force moved slightly, and the drawing paper immediately turned into fly ash and completely dissipated.
Tang Xing's body trembled. According to the memories Tang Xiao brought him, a very severe punishment would follow.
But unexpectedly, Tang Xiao did not do this. He just walked to the place where the teacher was standing, looked down at the two children, and said coldly: "Twenty years ago, what I wanted was to use the skills of our generation
Sacrifice and struggle, and fight all the battles that need to be fought. In this way, our next generation should live a happy life. But after 20 years, I understand that this is impossible. Your generation is also destined to
To be involved in the flames of war. Even if we can defeat the Galactic Empire, the war will still last for a long time... Maybe when you are my age now, the war may not end."
He observed the expressions of the two children. Tang Yun sat up straight and listened very seriously. However, Tang Xing just bit his lower lip, looking embarrassed.
Tang Xiao raised two fingers and continued: "You need to remember two things about war. First, you can never escape the coming of war, especially when you are born here and become my children, then you can
In the foreseeable future, countless disputes will surround you. Hide? That is impossible, because even if you hide at the edge of the galaxy, you will still be dragged out and thrown into the furnace of war."
He retracted his middle finger and said: "As for the second point, if you need to face a war, then in the war, if you are not the winner, then you must be the loser. There is no middle, there is no so-called neutrality. No.
If you kill the enemy, the enemy will kill you...War is that simple."
His sharp eyes pierced directly at Tang Xing, and his tone became extremely cold, "War is not just a fight between guns and warships. War also includes economics, politics, humanities, geography, physics, and chemistry.
, everything, all means that can be used to harm the enemy and strengthen oneself will be used without scruples. This is war! So, what do you think the cultural lesson I want you to learn is? What you are learning is war. If you can't
If you win the war, your enemy will defeat you, destroy you...and even use you as a weapon to harm us."
Tang Xiao walked over and stood directly in front of Tang Xing. His terrible sense of oppression made Tang Xing unable to even stand. He took a few steps back and fell to the ground with a thud. He said coldly: "These courses are to teach you how to
Protect yourself! At the same time, it is also to protect our Principality of Dawn! Do you think it is me you are lazy and neglectful? No, you are just neglecting your own life and the entire 800 billion people of the Principality of Dawn! So now, I will give you a sentence
If you have the chance to talk, tell me what you think."
As he spoke, he turned around and returned to the podium.
Tang Yun raised his hand and replied loudly: "From the moment I became your father's daughter, my status was destined. I will become my father's best helper in the war!"
Tang Xing gritted his teeth and raised his hands and said: "This war... I, I will try my best... No, I will try my best."
Tang Xiao looked at Tang Xing coldly and said: "I will issue an order right away. The teacher of this class will be stripped of all positions and confiscated of all property. Of course, his entire family will also be included. They will become the Dawn Planet
One of the few beggars in the world, and no company will ever dare to hire them. They will spend the rest of their lives starving... just because they fail to let you study well."
Tang Xing suddenly raised his head and said: "Father, this... I'm sorry... I... I..."
However, all he saw was Tang Xiao's back and the last words he left, "This is another lesson I'm going to teach you today - learn to be responsible for your own actions. Because people like you, every move and every move
It will affect the fate of countless people."
Tang Yun looked at Tang Xing with gloating, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother, at least I won't let you starve. Hehehehe..."
Adele Wulan is waiting for Tang Xiao outside the door at the moment. She has seen the whole thing that just happened in the study. However, she has the same opinion of Tang Xing as Tang Xiao. She thinks that this child is too much.
Cowardly and too introverted.
In fact, cowardice and introversion are not heinous shortcomings, but as the son of Grand Duke Liming, he must not be cowardly or introverted!
She walked a few steps to Tang Xiao's side and whispered: "I'm sorry, Master... I will continue to strengthen my demands on Tang Xing."
Tang Xiao said coldly: "If he never succeeds, then before the enemy uses his weakness to deal with us, I will take the first step to deal with it as a hidden danger. When the time comes, his fate will be deposed and exiled.
"Sparing his life is the greatest mercy I can bestow for the sake of family affection."
Adele Ulan shuddered in her heart, even a little frightened.
Only then did she understand that although Tang Xiao's personality had become less irritable and changeable during this period, the darkness deep in his heart had not diminished at all.
He is still the same Tang Xiao - the careerist who is willing to sacrifice everything for the hegemony of the galaxy.
The atmosphere was so oppressive that people wanted to escape. Adele Ulan had to quickly change the topic and said: "Leia is training in the Force. Do you... go and take a look?"
She regretted saying this. If there is any name that Adele Ulan is absolutely unwilling to mention now, then it is definitely Leia.
But it was already too late now, Tang Xiao nodded and walked towards the garden behind the Grand Duke's Mansion.
Adele Ulan could only continue to talk about this topic: "The child Leia has made great progress recently. She is a very obedient...very serious child." She tried to put herself in the perspective of her mother.
, come and talk to Tang Xiao about Leia.
However, Tang Xiao's footsteps stopped. He turned back to look at Adele Ulan, with a meaningful smile on his lips. But in Adele's view, this smile could only make her feel terrified.
"Do your own thing well, play your own role well, and don't... get too far away. You should know what I want to say." Tang Xiao said coldly.
Adele Ulan fell to her knees as soon as her body went limp, and quickly said: "I'm sorry, Master... I... I didn't..."
Fortunately, at this time, the communicator on Tang Xiao received a message, which at least relieved Adele Wulan's current desperate situation. But she immediately became curious about what kind of message could be sent directly to Grand Duke Tang Xiao of Dawn.
Come here.
Tang Xiao waved his hand, turned and left the Grand Duke's Mansion.
Adele Ulan breathed a long sigh of relief. She felt that the clothes on her back were soaked with cold sweat and she was in a miserable state.
Tang Xiao, a dictator, tyrant, and Sith Lord, all of this will never change because of whether he can get rid of the influence of darkness on his emotions.
This is why, although she and Tang Xiao are husband and wife, she only dares to call her husband "master".
Tang Xiao walked quickly and arrived at the battle conference room of the Grand Duke's Palace in less than ten minutes. At this moment, inside the holographic projection, there were Chief of Staff Qi Jian, Minister of Defense Cheng Shitao, Secretary-General of the Prime Minister's Office Harry Seldon, and Commander-in-Chief of the Navy Matt
-Horner, Commander-in-Chief of the Army Xian Hui, Governor of Seswenna Sector Ling Liang and several other top military cores have participated in the meeting remotely through hyperspace communications.
In the holographic projection on the other side is the commander of the First Exploration Fleet, Lieutenant General He Ru. He said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, we have just received a message from Shepard. It is very urgent."
"Say it immediately!" Tang Xiao said seriously.
He Ru nodded and said, "Commander Shepard told me that they are currently on the planet Krakul." As he spoke, he marked the navigation coordinates sent by Shepard on the holographic star map.
Tang Xiao looked at the star map. The red light spot was located very deep in the unknown star field, or in other words, very close to the western edge of the Milky Way flat star map. It corresponded to the middle and rear sections of the cantilever.
He frowned, "Shepard, she ran so far?"
He Ru said: "That's right. Her current location is almost close to the core planet of Mongar-Mungal, Mugg-Faror..." ()
