1401. Turning point

Boom! boom! boom! Explosions exploded on the SPHA-T self-propelled Turbolaser gun!

In front of this 140.2-meter-long super giant land unit, M-808B Scorpion tank is only 10.2 meters long. The proportions of the two are like an ordinary person standing in front of a building.

However, the one who was unable to fight back was the giant SPHA-T.

In front of the flexible Scorpion tank, although the SPHA-T is equipped with 10 anti-infantry scatter laser cannons, this weapon cannot pose a threat to the Scorpion tank's armor at all.

On the contrary, the 90mm caliber high-speed smoothbore cannon equipped on Scorpion tank can easily penetrate the opponent's armor because it uses Hypermatter Acceleration Technology, which is now widely used in Fourth Civilization.

After hitting more than ten shells in a row, even the huge vehicle with a length of more than 140 meters was finally overwhelmed and paralyzed in a burst of violent explosions.

After receiving the news of the raid, the frustrated Wilhuff-Tarkin had to use more fighter jets for patrol and defense on the battlefield, which also reduced the air defense pressure over Steel City.

He hadn't thought about letting his Acclamator-class assault ship directly penetrate into the atmosphere of Dexen Satellite to support the operation, but his reason still prevented him from doing so.

Because according to various intelligence, Separatist army on Onderon has at least two J-1 Proton Cannon in his hands.

The J-1 Proton Cannon produced by the Technological Alliance, like the SPHA-T self-propelled Turbolaser cannon of Galactic Republic, are weapons with great power and low production. Moreover, in recent months, Technological Alliance has always refused to provide J-1 Proton Cannon to Confederacy of Independent Systems, citing insufficient raw materials and lack of funds.

This means that this powerful weapon that can directly shoot down Acclamator-class assault ship has finally not appeared in large numbers on the frontline battlefield of Confederacy of Independent Systems.

But the current situation is that since there are at least two J-1 Proton Cannon on Onderon, and these two cannons were not found on the planet when Onderon was previously occupied, then the most likely result is that these two Proton Cannon are now on Dexen Satellite!

And according to the information provided by Suo-Gerrera, Separatists probably installed these two Proton Cannons on the terrifying Thor Mech.

So if this is the case, Thor Mech will have the ability to threaten Acclamator-class assault ship!

With this invisible threat, naturally Acclamator-class assault ship cannot be sent into the atmosphere of Dexen Satellite casually.

You must know that the cost of Acclamator-class exceeds 100 million. If you do not count super battleship-level battleships such as Commander II-class, Acclamator-class is still the most expensive battleship in the Republic Navy series.

The even worse news is that even though the battle was so fierce, the two J-1 Proton Cannon of Separatists still did not appear.

At this moment, Wilhuff-Tarkin, who was standing on the bridge of the flagship ship, was extremely angry. With a bang, he smashed the portable terminal in his hand into the face of the staff officer who was reporting the war situation to him, causing the innocent staff officer's head to bleed.

Bang! There was a muffled sound and a door was kicked open.

Then dozens of Onderon soldiers with fierce faces rushed into a basement, but there was no one in the basement.

Commander rummaged through the remaining traces in the basement and said in the communication, "General, based on intelligence, we raided the basement of Building M in the market area. There are traces of Stila's rebel activities here, but they have already evacuated."

A gloomy voice came from the communication, "His Majesty the King's direct order, give me the city's search for the traitor Stila-Gerrera and her accomplices! They betrayed Galactic Republic, and even betrayed us Onderon! His Majesty the King requires that they be caught within one day, and then sent to the guillotine!"

"Yes!" Commander responded quickly, and then he said fiercely to the other soldiers behind him, "You also heard it! Expand the search area for me immediately! Even if we turn the city upside down, we still have to find Stila-Gerrera!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked out. Outside the door, more soldiers were gathering. With this Commander order, everyone immediately divided into groups and began a large-scale search.

They broke into people's houses and vandalized, smashed and looted everywhere on the pretext of hunting down rebels. Things like robbing QJs also happened everywhere with them.

Most of the people who can identify with and join Gerrera's team are hooligans and terrorists. When these people put on military uniforms and pick up Blaster rifle, they transform into fully armed hooligans and terrorists.

For a time, with the search of a large number of troops, the entire Izzy City, which was already in chaos, was now plunged into chaos!

The residents of Izzy City not only have to face the oppression and fear brought by the Galactic Republic Army, but also face the white terror of Gerrera. To describe it as deep water and hot water is already appropriate.

At this moment, Stila-Gerrera led one of the most elite teams and quietly sneaked towards Unifar Temple in the center of the city.

Because Stila-Gerrera and her comrades have been committed to helping and saving civilians, they can also get a lot of help and intelligence.

Under the ubiquitous eyes of Izzy City residents, they avoided Galactic Republic Army's patrols and Onderon army's searches, and successfully arrived at a place 2 or 3 kilometers away from Unifar Temple.

"Be careful! There is a team of Republic patrol ahead!" Stila whispered.

Everyone hurriedly hid. After a while, there was a flash of glass reflection in a building ahead. Stila looked at the flash and said, "Let's go! Now! Hurry!"

The others quickly followed her footsteps and soon arrived at the building. The door opened quietly and they hid inside.

A middle-aged woman in her 40s walked over to Stila and said, "Have you finally made up your mind? Stila! Only you can save our planet now! Ah... it's His Majesty the King!"

As she said that, she saw Ramses-Dundup behind her and quickly saluted, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here, Your Majesty Dumbledore."

Dundup smiled slightly and said, "It seems that Stila has a very high status in the hearts of the people. In this way, I can go there with peace of mind."

"Your Majesty, are you going to..." the middle-aged woman asked.

Dundup said with a smile, "Someone has to stand up and use political means to fight against Republic army's occupation. Now we can't let Stila stand on the front desk and bear the open and covert attacks of Galactic Republic. Let me, an old man, clear the way forward first."
