The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1387: blasting

"Quick! Get in the car!" Stella Gerrera urged eagerly.

Here, dozens of civilians with terrified expressions boarded the truck with the assistance of the rebel fighters. The trucks pulled into formation and headed away from the battlefield.

The sound of cannons was still rumbling around, and countless artillery fires streaked across the night sky, with the sound of death.

Stella picked up the communicator and said, "There are more than a thousand civilians on the southern section of Seventh Avenue, please arrange for someone to respond."

However, Anakin Skywalker's impatient voice came from the communicator, "I'm currently on a combat mission, please contact our logistics."

Stella Gerrera frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart. Anakin had kept saying that she would cooperate with him in evacuating the civilians, but now she seemed to be indifferent. She felt that she was being deceived.

However, at this moment, there was an extremely violent explosion sound in the distance! And this explosion sound is completely different from the one-off short explosion of those fighter jets falling or missile bombing. It was an extremely violent explosion, and it was accompanied by countless crackling explosions!

"What happened?" Stella Gerrera immediately became alert.

"Big Sister! It's bad! It's bad!!" A rebel soldier rushed over, "The Central Business Building! It was blown up!!"

"What did you say?! Central Business Building?!" Even though Stella Gerrera had been tempered by countless wars and her will was extremely firm, she jumped up, "That is a building over 800 meters high! ! There are at least tens of thousands of civilians stranded inside!!”

"That's right! The building... the building was directly destroyed! The whole fell down! The surrounding area was almost completely covered by smoke and dust!!" said the rebel soldier.

"It's impossible! The Central Business Building is very strong, even if it is bombed by a proton torpedo, it cannot collapse instantly! Unless it is directly blasted from the inside out!" Stella said, "What happened?"

But this is just the beginning!

The communicators of several rebel fighters in charge of communication kept ringing, and they began to collect the information they got. One of the fighters raised his head and looked at Stella blankly, "Sister... Sky Building, King's Office Building, West City Entertainment Center All bombed... all collapsed..."

"The Tokaf Building in the north of the city, the Hongjin Building was bombed!"

"The Tatako Building in the east of the city has collapsed!"

"This is definitely a premeditated attack! Immediately report the situation in these areas!" Stella Grera said loudly.

A rebel soldier put down the communicator with a pale face, "No warning! No warning at all! The civilians inside didn't even have time to escape, casualties... I'm afraid..."

"Even 9 squads of our people have lost contact!" another fighter said.

When Seth heard the news, he rushed forward and grabbed Stella Gerrera by the collar, yelling, "This is the Galactic Republic!! Ah!? This is the Galactic Republic!!"

"Confirm the situation in the Republic!" Stella said with a sullen face.

"The Galactic Republic started half an hour ago, and took off a large number of transport ships to penetrate the core of the city..." the liaison officer said.

"Did they really do it?" Stella's face was ashen.

Judgment, who had been standing by the side and watched coldly, raised his wrist at this time, clicked on the universal tool, called up the map of Izzy City, and then entered the directions of the destroyed buildings.

She looked at it carefully and said, "If these buildings are destroyed, then the main road in Izzy City has been blocked by the ruins."

She directly projected the holographic map to mark the location of the explosion. Sure enough, the place where the explosion occurred directly formed a circle on the map, enclosing the core of the city in the middle!

Stella Grera's body trembled a little, "According to the intelligence of our intelligence personnel, Akhenath Tandin is in command of the army in Izzy City, and his latest combat operation...is...is to deploy more troops to Go to the front to stop the advance of the Army of the Republic."

"That's right! This is it! Get it! This is the Galactic Republic!" Seth, who had been held up by two big and three thick rebel fighters, was still yelling over there.

In the sky, another group of transport ships roared past under the escort of fighter jets.

...

"My people have been hiding in the buildings near some main roads in the city for a long time, and planted bombs near the load-bearing structures in advance." -Gerrera spoke ferociously with a positive expression, "So, the main force of Akhenath-Tandin is mobilizing towards the periphery, and now the blasting in these places has cut off their retreat. Now, the core area of ​​the city has been destroyed. quarantined."

"Have you planned it?" Anakin Skywalker looked gloomy, "How on earth did you plant bombs in so many buildings?"

"It's not very difficult. A car parked next to a load-bearing column in a parking lot, an inconspicuous garbage can, a duffel bag that is ignored, anything is possible." So-Gerrera said, "You think Kara Does General Ni have this mind to manage the security of the city? Hehehehe, this robot will only calculate the comparison of the strength of the two sides, and then ask Tandin to increase the number of conscriptions again and again!"

"Hahahaha! Well done!" Wilhof Tarkin clapped his palms and laughed, "The bargaining chip you gave is really great! Saw Gerrera! Now, I have ordered my army to directly attack the city Core! I believe that within a few hours, the Temple of Unity will be breached by me! Hahahahaha!"

"Bargaining chips? What are you planning!" Anakin Skywalker asked sharply.

"I will be the king of Onderon Planet." Saw Gerrera sneered at Anakin, "I must thank you, General Skywalker. You taught me these techniques, and you trained me to fight Skills, and at the same time, you provide us with weapons and bombs."

"But I didn't teach you to do this!!! Are all civilians in those buildings!!!??" Anakin Skywalker was furious.

"I let the war end in one day." So-Gerrera said coldly, "Why don't you calculate how many lives I saved? And, I should thank you. Because your troops advanced That's why Tandin's main force was drawn out of the city, so you did it on purpose? General Anakin."

Wilhuff-Tarkin said: "This result is not perfect in my opinion, because the deterrence is not enough. However, capturing the city of Izzy in one day is enough for those young people to weigh themselves carefully before rebelling against us. It weighs two pounds."
