The Galactic Republic has completely gained air supremacy in the atmosphere of the planet Onderon. Now, except for a small number of Vulture robot fighters that are still relying on ground anti-aircraft firepower to resist, the entire sky is no longer owned by the planet Onderon.
Hundreds of transport ships gathered in orbit outside the planet began to restart their engines, enter the planet's atmosphere, and transport huge amounts of troops and supplies down.
The landing operation of the Galactic Republic Army on the planet Onderon has been fully launched. At this moment, a combat staff officer also came over and saluted and said: "General Skywalker, we have established 15 landing sites around Izzy City.
To surround the city in three directions, please give orders for the next actions."
"The landing site is 30 kilometers away from the urban area of Izzy City! There are a large number of civilians staying in the city. Try not to use long-range heavy firepower. All fire support is completed by air power!" Anakin Skywalker said loudly, "All AT-T walkers
All landings are suspended! Use TX-130 as the assault force and attack directly into the city!"
"Yes!" An army general next to him immediately conveyed the order.
Anakin continued: "The first batch of landing troops should not exceed 200,000. First, ensure sufficient supplies! Then we need to attack the city as soon as possible, and follow-up troops will be added one after another!"
"yes!"
"Keep all levels of command unobstructed. Arrange a cheerer class in each of the three landing directions to enter the atmosphere and serve as an intermediate command center! This ship stays in the outer orbit of the planet and serves as a high-level command center to coordinate the overall situation!" Anakin continued to order.
He has already experienced hundreds of battles, and is equally comfortable in combat command. He quickly arranged the combat deployment, and the officers at all levels below began to arrange the major combat units under him based on the combat plans prepared in advance.
As Jedi Knights, Najin and the others only need to issue general combat instructions in the subsequent battles.
After all, the Jedi's expertise is not in specific tactical and strategic command, but in the Force and precognition. They can use the Force's precognition to detect possible dangers in the current combat plan, but specific command does not require them.
Do it yourself.
Regarding this time's battle plan, Anakin Skywalker did not feel anything unusual, and the Force did not give him any feedback on the crisis.
But even so, he still always felt that something was not quite right.
This feeling doesn't even come from the Force, but a purer and more instinctive intuition.
But now, it's no longer time to care about this.
He said to Ahsoka Tano: "Ahsoka! You go to the direction of the northern route army and lead the army to attack. I will go to the direction of the west route army." It was now a combat meeting, and naturally he would not use the little ghost head.
Call Ahsoka.
"Okay." Ahsoka Tano nodded.
"You, like me, have gone through countless battles and fought independently. You will be fine!" Anakin encouraged.
"It won't be a problem for me, and I might even enter the core of the city before you do." Ahsoka replied.
Anakin smiled and nodded, then turned to the Dream Sisters. He hesitated for a moment, and there was nothing he could do about these two twins of the Force, so he said: "You two sisters will stay here and take charge. The first task is
It is to ensure the safety of our transport ships."
Naturally, it is impossible to drop all the transport ships in this landing operation. Their fleet is still assembled in the outer orbit of the planet.
Now Wilhuff Tarkin is taking his flagship and the five Jaeger-class battlecruisers to conduct orbital bombardment of the Dexon satellite. Therefore, there are only 6 cheerers around this huge transport fleet here.
-level assault landing ship still has the strength to fight.
And even for the Cheer class, 3 ships have to be sent into the planet's atmosphere to support ground operations, so the only ones left here to protect those transport ships are the last 3 Cheer class ships.
The protection of these transport ships is also very critical.
Luna Dream nodded politely and said, "We will protect the transport fleet."
Anakin Skywalker nodded and said loudly, "Let's go!"
He took several guards and Ahsoka Tano to the hangar platform, and took the LAAT/I assault transport craft to fly towards the surface of the planet.
The bridge instantly became much quieter and emptier. Luna Dream and Luna Phantom looked at each other with something strange in their eyes.
"Sister, sister, do we have to find a way to destroy these transport ships?" Luna-Huan said while looking at the neatly arranged transport ships outside the porthole.
Luna Dream shook her head and said: "I can't find a reason to do this, and it will give us nowhere to stand in the Republic."
"That's right..." Luna Phantom came to the window, breathed a sigh of relief on the glass that could even withstand the firing of turbolaser cannons, and then drew a cross in the direction of the transport fleet, "The Governor said,
The planet Onderon is going to fall sooner or later, so is he just going to turn a blind eye? If that's the case, it won't be fun at all."
"It's not his style to give up this planet without doing anything." Luna Dream said, "So, we just need to wait now."
"Sister, you know that what I hate most is waiting." Luna-Huan pouted and gently kicked the bulkhead with her feet.
A smile appeared on Luna Meng's lips, "However, I have discovered some problems. For example... when you know that the invasion of the Republic is coming, don't you think that the civilians on the planet Onderon are living
Are you having a good time?"
"I don't know these tortuous things." Luna-Huan shook her head. She realized that her sister seemed to want to explain, and quickly added, "I don't want to know these either! I just want to know when.
You can make a big fuss! Whether it's in the Republic or separatism."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It should...not be too long." Luna-Meng tilted her head and said calmly.
…
At the same time, the core of the highest power in Izzy City is located - the Temple of Unity.
"General! The Republican Army has begun to land!" An officer came over and said to the top military commander of the planet Onderon, General Ankenath-Tandin.
After the execution of the regent Sanji-Rashi by General Kalani, and the former King Ramses Dundup's refusal to return as king, General Kalani declared the planet Onderon to be under martial law.
In this state, General Kalani, the supreme commander of all military forces on the planet, naturally became the supreme ruler of the planet, and Akhenate Tandin became his deputy.
However, General Kalani later went to the Dexon satellite to preside over the war situation there, and the planet Onderon was handed over to Akhenat Tandin.
General Tandin originally commanded the planet's Royal Guard, which was the strongest military force besides the robot army of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. In addition, he had been following the army since the Ramses-Dundup era.
The three generations of veterans around the king are naturally more qualified to manage this planet than General Kalani.
However, General Tanding was not happy about such a position that made other people covet him. On the contrary, he only felt strong pressure.
Just like now, the Galactic Republic has finally begun to land, and he must lead the army to fight back!
"Can you know the number and deployment of the Republican Army?" Tandin asked.
"Relying on three Cheer-class assault landing ships, the Republican ** team established landing sites in the north, west and south of our city. The closest place is 30 kilometers away from the city. Judging from the number of transport ships taking off and landing, now
They have landed at least 100,000 to 200,000 people, and this number is increasing every minute." The officer said, "However, in addition to using fighter jets for fixed-point bombing, the Republican Army did not use heavy artillery for long-range attacks.
."
"They finally knew how to leave the last glimmer of hope to the civilians," General Tanding said.
"But... facing the Republic's offensive, our army in the city only has 50,000 combat robots and 300,000 soldiers at full strength. 200,000 of them have just been recruited in the past two months, and their training is seriously insufficient. I think we simply can't
I can't resist for too long..." the officer said.
General Tandin's eyes were firm, "We must resist to the end! Let the Republic know that we Onderon people are not soft persimmons that can be easily flattened and rounded! Don't forget what we lived under the rule of the Republic
life! Although I did not agree with Sanji Rush’s approach of overthrowing the old King Dundup at the time, it does not mean that I can accept the Galactic Republic! I believe that the vast majority of people think so too.”
He turned to stare into the officer's eyes and continued: "There are some things that you don't know at your level... The planet Onderon was one of the forward bases of the Mandalorian Crusaders during the Mandalorian War 4,000 years ago.
It is a planet that has long been blacklisted by the Republic! Even if we later joined the Galactic Republic, their policy towards us has always been exploitation and restriction! Under the rule of the Galactic Republic, we will always be able to maintain a state of starvation.
That’s it! It’s true that Sanji Rush is a fool, but why was he able to successfully launch a coup at that time? This is because the people have long given up on the Republic!”
"I understand, General. We will launch the most resolute resistance according to the predetermined plan!" The officer immediately stood at attention, performed a military salute, and said firmly.
"Set up defense lines at all traffic arteries in the city and avoid places where residents gather as much as possible! Our only goal is to delay! General Kalani, he has his own counterattack plan!" General Tandin shook his fist and said loudly,
"The Republic wants to conquer us! Never think!"
…
Boom! Boom! A violent explosion sounded as two TX-130 Saber hover tanks broke into the city of Ize. The two heavy laser cannons on the tanks directly irradiated the armored vehicle in front, causing a violent explosion!
Following the two tanks, the Republic soldiers from the rear rushed up in groups. They were divided into hundreds of combat groups. Some entered the surrounding buildings to control the commanding heights, while the other continued to advance along the road.
The combat organization of these natural soldiers of the Republic has become quite decent. Although they are still far inferior to clone soldiers, they are at least qualified soldiers.
Advance in groups, alternate cover, hide in every place on the road that can be used as a bunker, and then keep advancing.
General Tandin's Onderon planet army also followed the combat plan and set up heavy defense lines in several traffic arteries in the city to resist the attack of the Republic Army as much as possible.
In the sky, hundreds of Republic fighter jets circled like countless hungry eagles. As soon as they found a target, they immediately swooped down, dropped deadly bombs, or strafed with blaster cannons.
The anti-aircraft firepower in Izzy City is firing almost all the time, and the sky above the city has long been enveloped in countless flames, day and night.
Anakin Skywalker hurried forward waving his lightsaber. In front, the Onderon army built a line of defense with laser fences, sandbags, and vehicle wreckage to block the intersection. Hundreds of blaster rifles fired wildly at this direction.
, but these blaster beams were unable to hit Anakin at all, and the lightsaber swung at high speed instantly reflected the hundreds of blaster beams back!
Several muffled groans were heard from behind the position, and the soldier who fired was instantly killed by the blaster beam he fired.
Immediately afterwards, Anakin jumped high and directly jumped over the 5-meter-high bunker, and then fell heavily on the firepower point of the Onderon army behind the bunker!
Boom!! A powerful wave of force spread everywhere, and hundreds of soldiers here were suddenly blown away. Under the powerful force, most of the soldiers were unconscious even in mid-air!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Anakin raised his hand and grabbed it, and all the blasters in the hands of the soldiers immediately flew out and fell to the side. He looked coldly at the soldiers who were still there.
The soldiers of Onderon's army who were not fainting, just dumbfounded, said nothing.
These soldiers were very sensible, and they all lay down on the ground and raised their hands in surrender.
Swish! Swish! The lightsaber flashed, and the piled up bunker was immediately cut off. More Republic soldiers swarmed in, taking away all the surrendered Onderon soldiers, and at the same time continued to move forward.
"On the west side of Fifth Avenue, there are troops setting up anti-tank guns there. There are about 200 people." Information transmitted by Stella Guerrera came from the communicator.
"Advance to Fifth Avenue! Others, continue to attack in this direction! Bring some tanks over!" Anakin immediately made combat arrangements.
Behind him, a company that looked obviously stronger and more fierce than the other soldiers suddenly agreed. They carried their guns and walked toward Fifth Avenue with ferocious smiles on their faces.
This is a new commando team selected by Anakin Skywalker. He named this team the 2nd Stormtrooper Company to commemorate Rex's clone army, the 501st Legion, and the Stormtrooper Company who had followed him through life and death.
.
"But you must pay attention, there are civilians gathering on Fifth Avenue! You need to evacuate them all, otherwise it will cause heavy casualties!" Stella said again in the communication.
"I'll pay attention." Anakin said calmly and closed the communication.
There was a burst of gunfire from a building in the distance, and then a soldier ran over and said: "General Skywalker! Someone in the building over there shot at us and threw Molotov cocktails. Two brothers were burned!
"
"Send a combat team there! Be careful not to hurt civilians!" Anakin said.
"General, I'm not saying anything. If you really have to take care of civilians at every step, we won't be able to drive out the separatists until next year!" said one of the 2nd Riptide Company.
Anakin Skywalker had a displeased look on his face, "I told you! Don't hurt civilians!"
