The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 1596
1596. Fighting openly and secretly

"I have to say that your hand is accurate and fast...Governor Tarkin." Dunn-Wessex said coldly, "The planet Phaeda was attacked on the front foot, and your fleet will arrive on the back foot. Those who don't know may think that the Geths are tipping you off!"

"Chairman Palpatine asked me to reinforce the battle against the northern Geths, so I have to do my best." Tarkin responded with a half-smile, "And I also got the exact information that the Geths have mastered a brand-new method of traveling faster than the speed of light. Once the planet Phaeda falls, they can directly hit your hometown... At that time, you will not look so good in front of Speaker Palpatine..."

"So, do you think our Ninth Army can't resist the invasion of geth?" Dunn-Wessex asked rhetorically.

"Where is it, I just think that you haven't realized the danger you are in." Wilhof-Tarkin said, "And, isn't the main fleet of your Ninth Army still fighting the separatism and has not been transferred back?"

"I have eliminated the separatist forces in the Ninth Army's jurisdiction, and I don't need a loser to care about. I am really afraid that one day you will lose even the Fourth Army, and then run to take charge of the First Army! Hehehehe..." Dunn-Wessex sneered.

"You should pay more attention to Quarter, maybe they will soon know what is the real separatism. Don't get your little lover into it..." Tarkin said meaningfully.

"Hmph!" Dunn Wessex's face darkened when he heard Tarkin talking about his girlfriend, Lila Blissex, "This is the top priority of the Republic right now. Don't use your hearsay information to spread it everywhere! Otherwise, the Ministry of Intelligence is really ugly."

"In that case, Planet Feida, let me help you, you're welcome," Tarkin said.

"Don't mind your own business! The hand is too long, but it is easy to break!" Dunn-Wessex snorted coldly and turned off the communication.

"Hehe..." Wilhof Tarkin looked at the already dark screen with a mocking smile on his face, "It's just a dude."

His assistant came over, bowed, and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, Colonel Gilad-Pellaeon called just now. He said that the number of geth on the planet Phaeda is increasing. He hopes that we can be prepared, because more reinforcements may be needed."

Tarkin waved his hand and said, "I gave him 30 troops, which is not enough... that would be too much."

"Yes... that's natural." The assistant nodded and bowed in agreement.

"Tell him that Governor Dunn-Wessex is very disgusted with our current behavior, so if you need reinforcements, go to him. I don't have the ability now." Wilhuff Tarkin had a sly and cold smile on his face.

"I understand what you mean, Your Excellency Governor." The assistant showed a comprehensible smile, "Once there is something wrong in the battle on the planet Fieda, the Ninth Army will definitely be in a mess. But we are the one who has the foresight, ignores the past, and goes all the way to help... At that time, the speaker can really understand who is the worthless dude."

Tarkin looked at him coldly, "Are you trying to say that I will let my colleagues lose the battle? Who gave you the guts?"

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I made a slip of the tongue..." The assistant's face suddenly turned pale.

Tarkin put his hands behind his back, came to the window, looked at the bustling scene outside the window, and said: "Dunn Wessex, you are getting too close to Kuat. Whether it is for me personally or for the Galactic Republic, this is not a good thing. Your Excellency, he has a special liking for the battleships designed by Lila Blissex, but you and I both know what is going on with those battleships. Planet Fieda just wants to give Dunn a warning, so that he will not go too far."

"Then the military operation at the Kuat Power Dock..." the assistant asked cautiously.

"Onana Quarter's hand is too long! Did she think that with the support of the Ninth Army, she could intervene in our military affairs? What's more, the support of the Ninth Army is not her, but Lila Blissex! This is looking for death!" Tarkin's face was extremely cold.

Governor of the Ninth Army Dunn-Wessex and Palpatine have a good relationship and great power, so forget it.People have this relationship, have this background, you can't help it, can't you?But Dunn has indeed gone too far recently, and he is even supporting this very risky military operation of the Kuat Power Shipyard!
This is a provocation to the military!

That's why Tarkin prepared to teach Dunn a lesson through this battle on Planet Feida.After all, he didn't think that with Dunn's profound background and the strong strength of the Ninth Army, he would lose his capital Palin-Minoor all the way.It's enough to suffer at most.

The 30 clone army and the powerful fleet including more than 40 Jaeger-class battlecruisers and 10 Knight-class star destroyers are actually his political chips.

Winning, he is full of glory, because he foresees the geth's actions in advance, makes a prediction and successfully blocks the geth.Is there a better record than this when the geth are raging in the north and there is a lot of turmoil everywhere?

If they lost, it was also the Ninth Army's own incompetence.In their own hometown, with the support of the Fourth Army, they still failed?Palpatine would not think that this was caused by Tarkin's unfavorable support.After all, what he supported in the past was a genuine army.

After thinking for a while, Tarkin said: "Send a message to the Ship Supervision Committee of the Republic and ask them to hand over part of the military order to Sina Fleet Systems. The Vindicator-class heavy cruiser? Tell Sina people, I am very interested, and the Fourth Army will order 50 ships first."

"Understood, I will arrange it immediately." The assistant replied respectfully.

Tarkin narrowed his eyes, and said to himself: "Quat Power Dock...This time, their military operation, no matter whether they win or lose, will probably change... But no matter what, Onana-Quat will always be the loser. It depends on you, whether you will fall at your peak, hehehehe..."

……

The core circle of the Milky Way, unmanned galaxy, astronomical code T6652U7X8849L.

A huge engineering ship emerged here from the hyperspace channel. The logo of the Kuat Power Dock was painted on the engineering ship impressively. It used 8 sets of tractor beams to drag a huge part and flew directly towards the stars of the galaxy.

In the direction of the stars, it is already very busy at this moment, and a large number of engineering ships are intensively carrying out construction operations here.

In the perihelion orbit less than 3000 million kilometers away from the stars, a huge space building is gradually taking shape!
