The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 2227: Lord of War (Part )

  2228. Lord of War (Part )

Swarms of vulture robot fighters were flying around in the sky, swooping down and strafing every suspicious target that might appear on the ground.

The fire-fighting spacecraft has arrived at the scene and sprayed a large amount of inert foam and cooling liquid on the rail truck that was filled with smoke.

The robot rescue team rushed into the scene under the flames that had not yet been extinguished, trying to rescue any supplies that might still be saved. However, this effort was obviously in vain. In a violent ammunition explosion, more than a dozen robots were blown to pieces. After that, they completely gave up and just focused on putting out the fire.

However, the instigator of all this, Clone Unit 99, had already evacuated the scene during the chaos. They fled into the dense jungle and once again evaded the search of the garrison.

The pristine landscape of Cato-Neimoidia, which has not been destroyed by industrialization, is the selling point of the planet's health and wellness vacations, but now it has become the best cover for special operations fighters.

"They are suspecting that there is a traitor among them, so they leaked the whereabouts of this batch of supplies." The technician continued to search for useful information in the military command communication channel of the Trade Union. "But I think they will soon determine that the communication is being monitored."

"To be honest, I'm surprised that they thought of this only after losing seven batches of goods." Ye Zi shrugged.

"We still have to be thankful for this set of equipment." Hu Zi patted the jet pack on his back. "These are all experimental equipment. They are given to us first. Hahaha!"

"Equipment is certainly an important factor, but you should also understand that many of the things being studied in the Imperial Military Research Institute are actually imitating the Principality of Dawn." Rainbow said in a deep voice: "For example, my optical camouflage combat uniform is said to be based on a mysterious special forces unit in the Principality of Dawn - the Ghost."

"Humph! This is not surprising." Ye Zi snorted coldly, "Don't forget how many times we had our blood samples drawn at the training base! Those guys in the military probably want to copy the miracle of our awakening of the Force, and then mass-produce Force warriors like us! Humph!"

"It is said that the Ghosts are indeed a force composed entirely of people who have awakened the Force." Rainbow said, "The scary thing is that while the Imperial military is still exploring how to awaken the Force in a controllable way, the Principality of Dawn has already applied it to actual combat. Moreover, they have developed a series of special equipment based on the characteristics of the Ghosts, while our equipment is still in the experimental stage. In this respect, the Principality of Dawn is at least fifty years ahead of us."

"Wait a minute, I intercepted a communication!" The technician suddenly said, he raised his hand, and everyone around him immediately shut up. The crosshairs figure flashed and climbed up a tree, closely monitoring the surroundings.

After a moment, the technician said, "Here comes the opportunity! Our recent attacks have been very successful, and the Trade Federation has lost a lot of supplies. They are asking for more 'Christmas gifts'! It is said that the contact person will arrive at Cato-Neimoidia in the near future!"

"Very good! As long as they take action, there must be a flaw! Technician, I leave it to you. You must find their more specific action plan. This time, we must find out who is secretly transporting large quantities of weapons to the Trade Federation!" said the hunter.

……

In the outer ring of the Milky Way, on the planet Tatooine. The civil war among the Hutts did not affect this transportation hub for smugglers. After the Desiligić family and the Besadi family suffered catastrophic disasters on Tatooine, the new overlord of Hutt space, the Gorensla family, now controls this planet.

On the planet Tatooine, the most prosperous and developed cities are Mos Eisley City and Mos Espa Harbor.

These two places are not cities in the usual sense. In fact, they are more like advanced slums. After all, they were built and expanded by countless smugglers and scavengers. There is no so-called urban planning at all.

But it is precisely places like these that gave birth to the core of the smuggling industry in the outer ring of the Milky Way, and are also the breeding ground for countless crimes and outlaws.

In the northern suburbs of Mos Espa, a large area has been recently opened up, all surrounded by walls and guarded by a large number of robots. A no-fly zone has also been set up in the sky, prohibiting any spacecraft from approaching. The Gorenzla family also reiterated this point, and they told all organizations on Tatooine that anyone who dared to interfere with this place would be killed without mercy!

The hundreds of heads pierced with sharpened sticks at the gate also proved that the Gorensla family was serious.

Many people could see guards constantly coming in and out of this area. Many of them were soldiers from the Giant God Security Company wearing black combat uniforms with an A-shaped mark on their chests.

In Hutt Space, many people know that there are people who must not be provoked, and one of them is the Giant God Security! Because they are large in scale and well-trained, they are like an elite army, and because of their high price, generally only the Hutts can afford to hire them.

  With powerful combat capability and Hutt background, this combination is equivalent to a hegemon in Hutt space!

Inside this base, countless weapons and equipment are piled up like mountains! Here you can see E-5 blaster rifles, DS-1 blaster rifles, M-8 Avenger assault rifles, M-29 Mantis sniper rifles, and many other weapons. Whether it is weapons produced by the Galactic Empire, the Principality of Dawn, or the Separatists before, you can see almost everything.

Not only that, there are also many heavy equipment. The TX-130 Sabre hover tanks and AV-7 self-propelled artillery used by the Galactic Republic, as well as the DW-1 Dwarf Spider combat machine used by the Separatists, and the NR-N99 Persuader-class tank robot. You can even see large equipment such as the OG-9 Nest Spider large combat machine and the AT-TE all-terrain assault walker.

The Principality of Dawn also produces a large number of Warthog off-road vehicles, Scorpion tanks, and Giant Mechas.

This place is like a huge military exhibition! All these equipments are piled up randomly, and then the B-1 combat robot nearby throws them into the cargo box with a forklift, and then hoists them into the cargo hold of the spacecraft. Anyway, in the hot and dry climate of Tatooine, these weapons do not need much maintenance and will not be damaged.

  The weapons piled up here are almost sold by the pound!

As for how many weapons are here, no one knows. Anyway, everyone here understands that the Trade Federation is waving money and calling for the arrival of these weapons.

They are not short of money.
