Bolo ball is a very violent sport that is similar to football, but also a bit like rugby. This sport encourages body collisions while kicking the ball, and even athletes wear protective gear.
This sport is particularly popular in the outer and middle rings of the galaxy, and it also has many fans in the core circle. For example, the planet Alderaan is one of the strongest teams in Boro Ball.
But to say that the planet that is most enthusiastic about Boro Ball is Mandalore.
Like many planets in the Outer Rim Stars, people on Mandalore don't have the money to engage in extremely exciting but expensive competitions such as the Bounta Night Shuttle Race, so they can just find a venue to play Boro Ball.
It has become their favorite. Moreover, the Boro Ball advocates the rules of direct physical confrontation, which also makes the Mandalorians who have martial blood flowing in their bones extremely obsessed with it.
Sikeby City, Municipal Polo Stadium.
This stadium, which once held countless bolo competitions and brought people a lot of joy and passion, has now been half destroyed by the war. However, due to the vast space of the stadium, it became a place for the Vizsla government forces
logistics base.
Private Darko licked his chapped lips and looked at the three Komrik-class fighter jets that landed outside the stadium. The three fighter jets raised their wings as if they were huge flags 53 meters high.
This reminded him of the Galaxy Cup Boro Competition three years ago. On this court, the Mandalorian team, which lacked funds, had very poor equipment, training and food, actually defeated the super giant Oder with a score of 2:1.
Team Lang! At the same time, on the planet Fwillsving, Team Fwillsving also defeated Team Dawn sent by the Principality of Dawn 1:0 at home, and finally overtook Team Alderaan and won that Galaxy Championship.
Cup champion. This also broke the myth of Alderaan team's five consecutive championships in the Galaxy Cup.
On that day, the colorful flags of the Sikebi Municipal Stadium were flying, and the shouts were loud. Because although the Mandalorian team has long been a weak team in the middle and lower reaches, at that moment, they defeated the most powerful opponent and dominated the Galaxy Cup championship.
Belong.
However, as time passed, due to the outbreak of uprisings and wars in various places, the Galactic Empire and the Principality of Dawn also began to have conflicts with each other. The Galaxy Cup was eventually suspended, and the dramatic result was forever fixed.
Although the Galactic Empire once claimed that it would restore peace and tranquility to the Milky Way within a year and then rekindle the Holy Fire of the Galaxy Cup, when they were ultimately unable to do so, they never mentioned the Galaxy Cup again.
But now, what stands in the Sikeby Municipal Stadium is no longer the beautiful colorful flag, but the huge wings of the Komrik-class fighter jet painted in blue and white!
Darko shook his head, randomly found a shady place, sat on the empty ammunition box, took off his helmet and put it on his lap, then took out a small diary from his arms, and gently smoothed the wrinkled cover.
, turned over a few pages, and then wrote on the latest page: [In the 9th year of the imperial calendar (the imperial calendar in this book starts from 20BBY, it is now 11BBY), on February 23, I came to Sikebi City again. Part 1
The first time I came here was three years ago. I followed my father here to watch the last game of the Galaxy Cup against Alderaan... That was my happiest time.]
[...But my father died a year later in a terrorist attack launched by those mobs... From that moment on, I swore revenge, joined the army, and fought to maintain the peace and tranquility of the planet Mandalore.
.]
Writing this, Darko picked up the kettle and shook it, then raised his head hard, trying to pour a drop of water out of it, but failed. He had to continue writing in the diary... [Yesterday, we liberated
After reaching Sakeby City, even Jango Fett's demon-like super soldiers could not stop us. Sikeby City surrendered. But... the commander asked us to extract 3,000 residents from here.
Public executions as a warning to others. At that time, I was really scared... Even the day before yesterday, when I heard that Jango Fett's super soldiers were killing people just a block away from us, I had never been so scared...
…Because the commander actually asked us to open fire on civilians…]
[I told Second Lieutenant Pande that I was a little dizzy because my eardrum was damaged by the shell, so I did not participate in this operation. But even though I was here, I could still hear the gunshots coming from over there, which lasted for a full minute.
Hours. Aren’t we supposed to be liberators? Aren’t we supposed to be protecting the peace of Mandalore? Why are those people in Skepi City willing to die to confront Governor Vizsla?]
Darko sighed and wrote in his diary in frustration: [I am really scared now. I just hope that all this can end soon. In this attack on Sakebi City, we brought the troops from Concordia headquarters.
The ammunition that came here has been almost used, it would be great if we could go back.】
At this time, a loud shout came from not far away, "Company 17, assemble immediately! It's our turn to get water!!"
It was his own company. Darko quickly stood up, took the empty water bottle around his waist in his hand, and quickly ran over to gather.
After many days of bloody battles, his company has been reduced from the standard 300 people to the current 180 people. Among the 120 people who were reduced, more than 40 people have died, and the remaining 70 people are now on the other side of the stadium.
field hospital for treatment.
But Darko knew that although it was treatment, those field hospitals did not have enough medicine and equipment to deal with the horrors suffered on the battlefield. Ever since he came here, the screams in the field hospitals had never stopped.
Never stopped.
Darko licked his dry lips again. He didn't care about so much now. He just wanted to drink water.
Before setting off, the commander repeatedly told them that as long as the rebel cities could be liberated, everything could be solved, whether it was water or food. Therefore, they set off with only three days of rations and a standard unit of ammunition. However, the battle
A week has passed since the fight, and they have still not received supplies, so they can only hope to capture the target city.
In fact, it is precisely because of this that they work so hard.
As the team walked towards the water supply plant, you could see the corpses of civilians lying on the roadside along the way. Their hands and feet were tied and they fell to the ground. Most of their heads had been blown open by blasters, and there was blood.
Drenching, the air was filled with the smell of blood.
When we arrived at the factory, many of the water-fetching equipment here had been destroyed. Only one machine was still working. Several bruised rebel prisoners were numbly operating the machine. Their skin was dry and their lips were cracked. They looked like they had not been in bed for a long time.
