The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1380. Fierce battle against Andron (2)

On the Flagship of the Republic Fleet, Tarkin's Will, Wilhof Tarkin waved his hand suddenly and said loudly, "All spaceships, head towards the Dirksen satellite! This ship is rushing forward, ready to start the first round of salvo!"

"General, the base of the Separatists on the Dirksen satellite is currently on the other side due to the rotation?" the adjutant asked with some doubts.

Wilhuff Tarkin sneered, "Who told you that I was going to bomb that base? Bomb me indiscriminately! Every inch of land on the Dirksen satellite will be engulfed in flames and lava!!"

"yes!!"

The huge fleet of the Republic began to move forward. On the layered hull of the Archon-class ship headed by it, rows of XX-9 twin-mounted heavy-duty turbolaser turrets began to rotate, and the two not-so-long barrels pointed at Germany. Xen satellite direction, and then directly open fire!

60 double-mounted heavy-duty turbolaser turrets, divided into front, left and right three gun groups, each gun group has 20 turrets, which is 8 times more terrifying firepower than the Jaeger-class battlecruiser burst out immediately !

The dense turbo laser beams were launched and exploded in the unsuspecting primitive jungle on the other side of the Dirksen satellite!

boom! boom! boom! boom! ! ! As beams of light descended from the sky, at the moment of landing, an extremely bright and dazzling hemispherical light exploded instantly! As the power of the explosion spread, the hemispherical light gradually recovered, forming mushroom clouds hundreds of meters high!

Every bombing caused terrible damage to the ground. The ground was trembling, and the mountain-like rocks were turned upside down, and then turned into fragments under the terrifying impact, and then the terrible high temperature directly melted these fragments into lava and splashed everywhere.

Countless molten lava fell from the sky, which seemed to be a scene of doomsday!

On the other side of the Dirksen satellite, even if it is far away from the bombing range, the dense virgin jungle turned into a sea of ​​flames amidst the terrible aftermath of the explosion and the rain of lava from the sky. Various animals screamed, Howled and ran around, and then died one after another.

Wilhuff Tarkin stood on the bridge with his hands behind his back, looking at the satellite in front of him through the wide porthole. On the originally green planet, dozens of small red flowers bloomed, and the number is gradually increasing.

Every red flower is a terrible explosion that spreads over ten kilometers, and as the bombing continues, more and more places are affected by the aftermath and flames of the explosion!

The Archon-class Star Destroyer, as its name suggests, was originally designed to destroy a planet.

Of course, this destruction does not mean disintegration in the literal sense, but the destruction of the entire surface of the planet, commonly known as burning glass——burning the entire surface of the planet into a glass state with high temperature and pressure.

With consul level firepower, the time needed to do this is - three days!

A star destroyer destroys a planet in three days! Such firepower is simply incredible! Also, it's scary!

You must know that even before, the Galactic Republic had a history of orbital bombing in wars, but the Jaeger-class battlecruiser, which is also equipped with XX-9 dual-mounted heavy-duty turbolaser guns, has only 8 main guns, so it conducts orbital bombing. Sometimes, it can only be bombed purposefully targeting specific tactical targets.

Hunter-class battlecruisers, unless dispatched in groups, simply do not have the ability to bomb and destroy a planet indiscriminately.

However, one Archon-class Star Destroyer can do it!

In the Republic Fleet, Anakin Skywalker was on the Cheer-class assault landing ship, looking in the direction of the Dirksen satellite, with a gloomy expression on his face.

"Tarkin, how could he do this!" Ahsoka Tano immediately became anxious, and said loudly: "He directly started orbital bombing! This is expressly prohibited by the Constitution of the Republic!"

"He bombed no man's land, so even if you go to the parliament, you can say something." Luna Huan waved her hand aside.

"You are also Jedi Knights, you shouldn't sit idly by!" Ahsoka Tano said angrily.

"Then what should we do? Commanding Tarkin can't be controlled, so let's kill his ship!" Luna Huan said with great interest, seeing her eager to try, it seemed that she really planned to do so .

"Although it's a bit difficult, it should be possible if you fly our Dream." Luna Meng said after thinking about it seriously.

Dream is the name they gave to the special ARC-170 heavy fighter that they equipped with, and this fighter is now quietly parked in the hangar of this cheerer-class assault landing ship.

"What the hell are you guys messing around with!" Ahsoka Tano said sternly as he had nothing to do with the sisters, and he didn't feel good about them.

"Okay! Just think Tarkin is trying to lure a snake out of its hole, and I will keep an eye on him. If he does anything out of line again, I won't let him go!" Anakin Skywalker said in a deep voice.

While speaking, he took a deep look at Sister Dream.

Destroy a Star Destroyer with a fighter jet? Anakin-Skywalker's eyes were serious. Judging from his understanding of the Dream sisters, although Luna-Huan often talked about running trains, her sister Luna-Meng spoke very seriously.

Could it be that they can really do it? ! What kind of a pair of monsters is this!

Thinking of this, Anakin Skywalker couldn't help thinking about whether he could do it, although it was really rude to think so, and it shouldn't be something a qualified Jedi should think about.

But looking at it from another angle, none of the four people standing here seems to be a normal Jedi Knight...

Ahsoka Tano was obviously still a little angry, but since the master said the same, she didn't have much to say, she just sat there sulking.

Under the cover of the Cheerer-class assault landing ship, the transport fleet shot a feint from the outer edge of the Dirkson satellite, and then rushed directly to the planet Onderon.

...

At the same time, the capital of the planet Onderon, Izzy City.

The three suspension trucks drove directly to the refuge outside the city, then slowly descended, opened the hatch, and hundreds of civilians on board got off one after another, and briefly communicated with the administrators and garrison outside the refuge. These people just let them in.

These shelters were previously built on the outskirts of the city, with a total of more than 300 shelters, each of which can accommodate tens of thousands of people. That said, ideally, these shelters could house more than 3 million people.

Of course, in practice, if so many people were to be forced in, the food supply and living conditions would definitely be greatly reduced.

"Okay, this group of people is done." Stella Grera smiled and said to the silent judge standing aside, "Thank you for your help, otherwise the three Destroyer robots we encountered on the road will give us Very serious casualties!"

The judge couldn't see her expression under the mask, and the mouth exposed under the mask didn't fluctuate at all. She just said calmly: "What you have done is just a drop in the bucket. The total population of Izzy City exceeds 5 million, which is almost equivalent to How much can you save a quarter of the entire planet's population?"

"As I said, I can't do those big things, I can't stop the war, I have to do something that can be done." Stella said.
