Hearing what Tarkin said, Anakin became even more angry. He said sternly: "I never knew that the Galactic Republic has a tradition of treating people's lives as nothing!"
"Be patient, young Jedi. I naturally have my reasons for doing this." Wilhuff Tarkin said.
"You'd better have a good reason! Because this blind breakthrough operation will cost at least thousands of soldiers!" Anakin Skywalker said, "The situation in Yinzi City is unknown, and you don't know what to do."
I know where the separatists still have hidden power! I also don’t know if they have any hidden firepower points! I don’t even know what the building condition is like or what the terrain is like! Just like that, you actually sent the transport ship directly there!”
"Do you think, based on the current progress, how long will it take for us to completely capture Yinzi City?" Tarkin asked rhetorically.
"In five days at most, Yinzi City will be completely controlled by us." Anakin Skywalker replied.
"I remember that the time we agreed on was three days." Ta Jin said calmly.
"The situation in Yinzi City is very complicated. There are a large number of civilians who have not been evacuated, so we must act cautiously!" Anakin Skywalker said.
Tarkin shook his head and said: "Do you think this will have a perfect result? No, not really, Anakin. You may think that your actions are saving their lives, but in fact, they
Do you think so? I am also paying attention to the situation on the ground battlefield over there. In just three hours, tens of thousands of shootings and explosions occurred. Do you know the reason? "
He glanced at Anakin and asked himself, "Is it because of different ideas? Is it because they regard us as invaders? Yes, it is true. But there are so many planets in the galaxy, you can ensure that every planet is correct
Aren't we hostile? No. So, you will always face this situation. Otherwise, our own soldiers will die in attacks and the combat plan will be delayed; otherwise, it will cause more civilian casualties. Can you accept it?
which one?"
Anakin said in a deep voice: "We are the Galactic Republic! We should take responsibility for this! This is our responsibility, whether it is for the soldiers of the Republic or the Jedi Order!"
"What you said is irresponsible and even evasive. Because you have not really faced this problem head-on!" Tarkin said, "You keep saying responsibility, so what you mean is that you would rather let the Republic
Are our soldiers making more sacrifices, delaying our battle plans and allowing separatism to continue to flourish?!"
"That's not the case!" Anakin said.
"Do you think these civilians will be grateful to you? No! They will only regard this as your weakness! Their resistance will come in waves, and you will have to suppress it again and again! In this process, no matter you
Or these resistance forces will pay more casualties and more costs! Who can be blamed for this? Can they be blamed for having too strong a will to resist?" Tarkin said sharply, "No! This can only be blamed on you! Because you
His weakness gave them hope!"
"This is just a necessary process! If it doesn't work once, do it twice, if it doesn't work twice, do it three times! On behalf of the Galactic Republic, I will eventually resolve all resistance and usher in the prosperous age a thousand years ago again! Peace will eventually come!"
Anakin said loudly.
"I'm glad to see you say that, but you're using it in the wrong direction, Anakin." Tarkin said coldly, "You shouldn't give them hope! You should give them fear! Give them deterrence! Let them in
When even the slightest thought of resistance arises, they will think of the terrible consequences! This will make them dare not resist or take action! This is the real solution once and for all!"
"Fear should never be a tool of the Galactic Republic, let alone a tool of the Jedi!" Anakin argued.
"Give them hope, and they will resist again and again. And give them fear, but they can only hide in the corner and tremble... So, do you choose hope or fear?" Tarkin said: "Just like this time, if you
Is it useful to advance step by step and finally capture Yinzi City? Do you think they will stop resisting? No! You can only beat them up! Beat them up completely! Make them afraid! Let them see how to stop the army of the Republic.
The price you pay for moving forward!”
He pointed to the screen next to him that was constantly flashing red dots representing the enemy, and said: "If killing a person and hanging his head on a street lamp can suppress a riot, then I will not hesitate.
It’s your choice to do this.”
"I am responsible for the ground operations on the planet Onderon! Whatever happens, I will naturally solve it!" Anakin Skywalker's face began to look gloomy.
Tarkin smiled coldly and said: "Unfortunately, some unexpected events occurred, so I decided to exercise the power of the governor to make favorable adjustments to the development of the war situation."
"Acting Governor!" Anakin reminded.
"But that's also the Governor, isn't it?" Tarkin sneered and pressed a few buttons on the communicator, "Let me introduce you to a person. You should know him. It was him who brought us the outcome of the war.
Turnaround."
Another person appeared in the holographic projection on the side.
He is thirty years old, wearing a cloak, a ferocious scar on his face, a fierce expression, and a sharp light shining in his eyes.
"Thor Gerrera!" Anakin was shocked.
"Hello, General Skywalker." Saw Gerrera said coldly, "I'm very pleased that you finally came back with the fleet."
"I said, I will solve the problem of Onderon." Anakin said.
"Very good, so I also choose to help you." So-Gerrera said.
"Then you should come to me! Just like your sister Stella Gerrera!" Anakin had a sullen face. He felt that Saw Gerrera's appearance seemed to mean something else.
"Hahahaha!" Saw Gerrera laughed, "Do you still believe in my cowardly Virgin Sister? Is she still hiding in the sewers, doing thankless things, driving out one car at a time?
What about Yun Pingmin? She doesn’t even know what she should do! And I believe she will fall out with you soon. In the end, she will accomplish nothing."
"I never think that saving civilians is a mistake! Moreover, Stella has given us a lot of help. Because of her intelligence, we can accurately respond to the movements of the separatist army!" Anakin said.
A strange expression appeared on Saw Gerrera's face, "And I can let you occupy the planet Onderon in one day!"
