1387. Explosion
"Hurry! Get in the car!" Stella Guerra urged eagerly.
Here, dozens of civilians with frightened expressions boarded the truck with the help of resistance fighters. The trucks moved into formation and headed away from the battlefield.
The sound of artillery was still rumbling all around, and countless artillery fires streaked through the night sky with a death-like sound.
Stella picked up the communicator and said: "There are more than a thousand civilians in the southern section of Seventh Avenue. Please arrange for someone to respond."
However, Anakin Skywalker's somewhat impatient voice came from the other end of the communicator, "I am currently on a combat mission. Please contact our logistics."
Stella Guerra frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart. Anakin had said before that he would cooperate with him in evacuating civilians, but now he was indifferent. She felt that she had been deceived.
However, at this moment, an extremely violent explosion suddenly came from the distance! And this explosion sound is completely different from the one-time short explosion of those fighter jets falling or missile bombing. It is an extremely violent burst, and it is accompanied by countless crackling explosions!
"What happened?" Stella Guerrera immediately became alert.
"Sister! It's not good! It's not good!!" A resistance soldier ran over in a hurry, "The Central Commercial Building! It was blown up!!"
"What did you say?! Central Commerce Building?!" Stella Guerrera jumped up even though her will had been tempered by countless battles, and she jumped up, "That is a building with a height of over 800 meters! ! There are at least tens of thousands of civilians stranded inside!!"
"That's right! The building... the building was directly destroyed! The whole thing fell down! The surrounding area was almost completely covered with smoke and dust!!" said the resistance soldier.
"This is impossible! The Central Commercial Building is very strong. Even if it is bombed by a proton torpedo, it will not collapse instantly! Unless it is exploded directly from the inside out!" Stella said, "What happened?"
But this is just the beginning!
The communicators of several resistance fighters in charge of communications kept ringing, and they began to summarize the intelligence they had obtained. One of the fighters raised his head and looked at Stella blankly, "Sister...Sky Tower, King's Office Building, West City Entertainment Center All were bombed...all collapsed..."
"The Tokaf Building in the north of the city, the Red Gold Building was bombed!"
"The Tataco Building in the east part of the city collapsed!"
"This is definitely a premeditated attack! Report the situation in these areas immediately!" Stella Guerrera said loudly.
A rebel soldier put down the communicator with a pale face, "There was no warning! There was no warning at all! The civilians inside didn't have time to escape, and there were casualties...I'm afraid..."
"Even our people have lost contact with nine teams!" another soldier said.
When Seth heard the news, he rushed up and grabbed Stella Guerrera by the collar, and yelled: "This is the Galactic Republic!! Ah!? This is the Galactic Republic!!"
"Confirm the situation in the Republic!" Stella said solemnly.
"Starting half an hour ago, the Galactic Republic 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 turned livid.
Judgment, who had been standing aside and watching with cold eyes, 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 and said: "If these buildings were destroyed, then the main thoroughfare in Ize City would now be blocked by ruins."
She directly projected the holographic map and marked the location of the explosion. Sure enough, the places where the explosions occurred formed a circle on the map, surrounding the core of the city in the middle!
Stella Guerrera's body was shaking a little, "According to the information from our intelligence personnel, the person commanding the army in Izi City is Akhenate Tandin. His recent combat operation... is... to dispatch more troops to front
To block the advance of the Republican Army. "
"That's right! This is it! Understand it! This is the Galactic Republic!" Seth, who was already being restrained by two tall and thick rebel fighters, was still yelling there.
In the sky, another group of transport ships roared past under the escort of fighter jets.
…
"My people have been hiding in buildings near some of the city's main thoroughfares for a long time, and have planted bombs near load-bearing structures in advance." In the outer orbit of Onderon, in the command center of the Cheer-class assault landing ship, Suo - Guerrela spoke with a ferocious face, "So, Akhenate-Tandin's main force is mobilizing towards the periphery, and now the explosions in these places have cut off their retreat. Now, the core area of the city has been destroyed Isolated."
"Did you have a plan?" Anakin Skywalker looked gloomy. "How on earth did you place bombs in so many buildings?"
"It's not that difficult. A vehicle parked next to the load-bearing pillar in the parking lot, an inconspicuous trash can, an unattended duffel bag, anything is possible." Saw Gerrera said, "Do you think Carla Does General Ni have the intention to manage the city's security? Hahahaha, this robot will only calculate the strength comparison between the two sides, and then ask Tandin to increase the number of conscripts again and again!"
"Hahahaha! Well done!" Wilhuff Tarkin clapped his hands and laughed, "The bargaining chip you gave is really good! 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! Hahahahahaha!"
"Trading chips? What on earth are you planning!" Anakin Skywalker asked sharply.
"I will become the king of the planet Onderon." Thor Gerrera sneered as he faced Anakin. "I must thank you, General Skywalker. It was you who taught me these techniques, and you who trained me in combat. skills, and at the same time, you provided us with weapons and bombs."
"But I didn't teach you to do this!!! Are all those buildings filled with civilians?!?" Anakin Skywalker was furious.
"I made the war end in one day." Saw Gerrera said coldly, "Why don't you calculate how many lives I saved? Moreover, I should thank you. Because your troops advanced It was so slow that it attracted Tandin's main force towards the outside of the city. So, you did it on purpose? General Anakin."
Wilhuff Tarkin said: "In my opinion, this result is not perfect, because the deterrence is not enough. However, the capture of Izzy City in one day is enough to make those young people think carefully before resisting us. It’s a pound of gold.”
