Chapter 1074: The Star Throat
Chapter 1074: The Star Throat
It was not difficult for Captain Xie to see that this was Kavatua being generous to others, which was actually nothing. First of all, Dashun didn't care that much because he couldn't get it for the time being anyway.
Furthermore, Dashun was not unaware that the origins of some things were questionable and might not belong to Kavatua, but if Kavatua gave them to them as his own, Dashun would be happy to acknowledge it. In any case, he would get the nominal rights first.
In diplomacy, when two powers deal with each other, they sometimes look at the long term rather than the immediate gains and losses.
In this matter, both sides gained what they needed and Dashun did not suffer any loss.
And when the true owner of the holy land appears, he needs to think carefully about how to deal with this matter.
After a quick weighing, he immediately made a decision. In fact, before he came, he already had a plan on how to treat the current primitive people, and now the appearance of this key filled a key link.
Seeing that the First People were still very angry and excited, he calmed them down and asked, "Have any of you been to the Throat of the Stars?"
The one-eyed elder thought he was afraid that he couldn't find the place, so he hurriedly said, "I've been there. When I was young, I followed the priests of the tribe there, but we didn't have all the keys, so we could only stay at the outermost part to worship the spirits. But I know the way. If Dashun agrees to us, I am willing to lead you."
Captain Xie knew the main location of the Throat of the Protoss. That place was very famous. In fact, people from the federal government had been there several times based on ancient books, but because of the lack of some key points, they have not found anything so far.
When Kavatua mortgaged this place, he gave them an ancient map. Later, Dashun sent people to check it out secretly, and they did find traces of the secret ceremony, but it was quite hidden, and there was no way to find it without a map.
However, if the secret ritual is not opened in the correct way, the noise will be very loud, and without the cooperation of experts and powerful fighters, forced entry may not be successful, so let's put it aside for the time being.
He thought about it for a moment, looked at the spearhead, then looked at the people of the First Nation who were looking at him with trepidation and nervousness, and said very seriously: "I am willing to believe you. I will accept this. I can give you the assistance you need."
These simple first-class people were suddenly excited, and at the same time they felt a sense of trust. If this was not in the Foreign Affairs Embassy, they would have cheered.
"but……"
After Captain Xie said this, they became nervous again, "How to give the things to you? That's a problem."
The one-eyed elder said hurriedly, "We have considered it. There are some small companies in the Federation that are willing to do business with us. We often buy supplies from them and we trust them. You can ask them to help with the transportation, or put them in a designated place in advance. We can use river transportation to transport the goods back..."
He proposed several plans in succession and people from several tribes nearby nodded in succession, obviously agreeing with them.
Captain Xie smiled and said that these beginners thought things were too simple.
There must be federal spies in these transportation companies. They may be willing to sell some unimportant daily necessities to them and make money for themselves, but when it comes to arms and implants, that is another matter.
Moreover, some weapons and implants require a complete maintenance system, which requires the dispatch of professional technical personnel for guidance. However, their tribes are too scattered, which objectively increases the cost of support.
Seeing that he did not seem to agree, the one-eyed elder carefully asked him for advice.
Captain Xie said, "I remember your ancient books record that the Throat of the Star Spirit is hidden in the mountains and caves. There are countless caves inside, connecting every fertile land. And there is enough space for all life on earth to live there?"
The first people present all felt a surge of pride, "Yes, that is the holy land of us Isutar people!"
Captain Xie said, "So what if your tribe migrates there?"
He said with some encouragement: "Since the Zatyi people can build a large gathering place on Kavatua, why can't you Isutar people build a gathering place around the holy land?"
He looked at everyone present.
"Gather your forces together, and you will be able to use the terrain to resist the enemy, and we will be able to support you more conveniently."
The first people present looked at each other in bewilderment, but at the same time they were excited. If they could really be like Kawatua, they could also become another holy place for the first people on the continent.
Someone couldn't help but ask: "But how do we get there?"
If it was just one or two people, it would be fine, but their entire tribe had been forced to leave their homeland. Tribes like Tahu and Awan had been forced to the north. How could a tribe of tens of thousands of people return there? They would definitely be intercepted by the Federation on the way.
Captain Xie nodded and said, "I remember that you Isutar people have a tradition of digging ancient roads in the mountains and rivers."
The so-called ancient mountain roads are paths through mountains and forests, and the river roads are secluded paths under the rivers. Traditional Isutar people believe that only by going through these remote places can they see the souls of their ancestors.
During the heyday of the dynasty, the roads were dug to almost every corner of the south. In order to extend to the east and north, many tribal men would try to go back along these paths to worship their ancestors after they reached adulthood. Although many tribes are no longer in their original places, many of those paths still remain.
The one-eyed elder thought of the glory of his ancestors and was a little excited, but his eyes dimmed again. He lowered his head and said, "Many of our books and records have disappeared. We only know a part of the ancient road records." Captain Xie said, "That's not a big deal. I may be able to help."
"Really?"
The one-eyed elder suddenly raised his head, and all the primitive people looked at him in surprise and excitement.
Captain Xie nodded, because he knew for sure that such a painting existed. Some of the Isutar nobles went to Kavatua and brought it with them. A visiting scholar from Dashun had the honor of seeing this collection there. As long as they could find a way to get the painting from Kavatua, the matter would be much easier.
The ancient road is of great significance in the hearts of the Isutar people. Being able to meet their ancestors from there is the yearning and expectation of every one of them. So after receiving a clear reply, everyone including the one-eyed elder once again promised that all the ancient treasures in the holy land could be handed over to Dashun in exchange for help for all their tribes.
Captain Xie talked with them for a while, then had them taken away to stay overnight. He then continued to deal with the rest of the affairs. At eleven o'clock, he was going to watch a midnight opera.
The next day at around four o'clock, he came back from the theater and took a pill. He said to the driver, "Go out of town. I need to meet with Director Chen."
The driver nodded, and the armed convoy drove out of the city. The people from the Secret Operations Agency who were monitoring them immediately contacted the Operations Office to report the current situation, and another team took over the monitoring.
After the convoy arrived outside the city, it stopped at the hotel. After going upstairs, they knocked on the door. Chen Chuan had received the message in advance and was waiting there. After inviting him in, Captain Xie said, "Director Chen, I have a plan that may require your help and cooperation."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Captain Xie, please go ahead."
Captain Xie talked about what he discussed with the First People who visited yesterday, and then said: "If we can support another gathering place of the First People in the Throat of the Star Spirit, it will be very meaningful for containing the West Coast. It can buy us more time to digest the foreign ocean, and it can also relieve some pressure on Kavatua.
I would like to ask Director Chen to cooperate in going there to check whether the conditions we envision are met there."
He said solemnly: "Those beginners have not received professional training, and it is possible that some of them have been bribed. There is a high possibility that the news will leak out. The Federal Secret Operations Agency and even the Strategic Affairs Department may take action after learning of this situation. Therefore, only Director Chen can step in to deal with this matter."
Chen Chuan thought that if the federal government knew this news, they would definitely take action. Maybe those who had originally planned to go to Kavatua would come here.
And this may be exactly what Captain Xie wants to achieve, to open up a new confrontation location in the corner, and at the same time relieve the pressure on Kavatua.
This did not conflict with his own ideas, because as a member of the delegation with a mission, he assumed that he could raise the things he needed by himself. In this way, if he entered the Holy Valley, he might be able to find some of the things he needed there.
He nodded, "Thank you, Captain. I agree."
"it is good!"
Captain Xie had great confidence in Chen Chuan. If Chen Chuan agreed, half of the matter would be done. He said, "I will report to the higher-ups right away, but we can't delay this matter. We should act first. This way, we may only have half a month to twenty days to prepare. Director Chen, you..."
Chen Chuan said: "I have no problem."
Captain Xie stood up happily and stretched out his hand to shake his hand. "Director Chen, I still have something to deal with. I'll leave this matter to you."
Chen Chuan shook hands with him and said, "Leave it to me."
Captain Xie nodded and said goodbye and left.
After Chen teleported him away, he returned to the house to continue his practice and did not leave the hotel for the next ten days.
From the perspective of the monitor, he is not interested in anything outside and is a fighter who practices martial arts every day.
On the eleventh day after the visiting team arrived in the Federation, a batch of resources from Dashun crossed the ocean and were delivered to the hotel.
After Chen Chuan received it, he checked it and found that it was a batch of synthetic drugs. The quality was not the best, but it was usable at least. Moreover, all three drugs were included. In this way, he could start practicing.
However, according to the agreement, in a few days, we will have to set off for the Throat of the Stars.
