2142. Brutal suppression
Rosha In the capital, Roshan Prime Minister Torreso Borre was delivering a passionate speech, "Galactic Empire This is naked aggression, plunder, and robbery! They want to take away everything we have accumulated over hundreds of years! They want to sell us into slaves so that we will never be able to stand up again!"
"The Empire's idea is very clear. We Trade Federation are the scapegoats for their war failure and economic failure! They can't plunder in Outer Rim, they can't plunder in Duchy of Dawn, so they reach out to us! And we have been Galactic Republic's most loyal partners for a long time!"
"Galactic Empire They are robbing their own people! They have no bottom line! We can't expect such lunatics to show us mercy! Our only way out is to resist to the end!"
"We cannot let our descendants live in a dark mine! We cannot let our future become a garbage dump for the Empire! We cannot let ourselves lose the dignity of being a human being!"
"We are here! We want to tell Galactic Empire! Want our wealth? Want our resources? Want to sell us as slaves? Then let Rosha turn into scorched earth, and then come to this scorched earth yourself and step on our corpses to get it!!"
His speech was resounding. In the square below the stage, hundreds of thousands of troops roared, and more people shouted crazily!
Even from a distance, the naked eye can see the huge Star Destroyer floating in the air, dense fighter formations raging everywhere, and the powerful air defense system on the ground pouring out its most powerful firepower.
But the troops and civilians in this square did not leave out of cowardice!
Because from the beginning of this war, there was no possibility of peace!
Galactic Empire came here to rob, everyone knows this. And for Trade Federation, especially for the core planet of Trade Federation like Rosha, the result of being robbed by the Galactic Empire is definitely more unacceptable than death.
This is equivalent to you being a wealthy family, but suddenly a robber comes and breaks down the door of your home. He wants to steal all your property, take possession of your women, and sell you to Africa to mine. And there is no police to come and take care of this matter. So what are your options?
Fight to the death!
This is also the common choice of more than ten races and more than 14 billion people on Rosha!
The bombing of TIE bomber in the sky has never stopped. On the ground, Imperial Army has also opened three more landing sites and launched attacks on three other major cities at the same time.
Rosha also provided the most determined resistance. They armed civilians and went to the front line. In order to cope with the Galactic Empire's absolute air superiority and firepower superiority, they chose to resist in every city.
Not only cities, but also all industrial areas, farms, financial districts, and commercial districts have built strong defense lines in these prosperous areas. They have a huge number of B-1 combat robots. These robots can not only charge forward and serve as human shields for the severely undertrained militiamen, but they can also dig trenches and build fortifications in the rear without sleep.
Rosha's people's intention is very clear, don't you want to rob? Don't you want our wealth and resources? Very good, we are standing on wealth and resources. Are you going to blow up this place with everyone and everything, or are you going to fight us to the last drop of your blood?
Of course, for Das-Vader, this is not a problem.
After completely gaining air supremacy, there was an endless stream of transport ships. A large number of transport ships landed almost every minute, transporting huge numbers of troops, rushing towards the major cities of Rosha like waves!
Do you want to bleed? no problem.
Is 1 million soldiers enough? Is 10 million enough? Is 100 million enough?
This is the Milky Way Core Worlds, the center of the Galactic Empire. Here, the Empire will never have any logistical supply problems!
Moreover, Das-Vader also issued the most cruel order-Order 37!
What does Order 37 mean? This command is one of the 150 preset commands of Clone Trooper. This order is an instruction to use the most cruel and extreme means to arrest a wanted criminal if he is protected by a large number of civilians.
According to this order, Imperial army will be able to fire on any civilian believed to be Protector under such circumstances, and can arrest any civilian unconditionally. After capturing a large number of civilians, they used these civilians as hostages and demanded that the other party hand over the wanted criminals. Otherwise, Imperial army would execute all the civilian hostages.
If the wanted criminal still refuses to show up, this process will be repeated until the wanted criminal is finally caught!
And who is the wanted criminal on Rosha? There are a total of five top leaders, including Planet Prime Minister Torreso Borre!
And Order 37 also includes a series of follow-up treatments, including that after causing a large number of civilian deaths, the military will block all media and communications in advance and remain silent for at least a month. After ensuring that the bodies of all civilians have been disposed of and that the media public opinion environment has improved under the control of the Empire New Order Protection Committee, the results of the fabricated incident will be made public.
Order 37 is equivalent to annihilating all humanity of the army. The army will be able to fire at civilians at will, arrest civilians in batches, and massacre civilians until it achieves its goal.
On July 27, the town where the initial resistance was established was occupied by the Imperial army like a tide. More than 20,000 defenders were killed, more than 60,000 combat robots were damaged, and more than 30,000 people were captured. Imperial army entered the town and went on a killing spree. They arrested all the people they could find!
It's everyone! As long as they can still move, all of them will be arrested without exception! If you resist arrest, you will be shot on the spot immediately!
In this city alone, Imperial army captured more than 30,000 militiamen and nearly 100,000 civilians! Immediately afterwards, Darth-Vader's terrifying black armor appeared on every screen of Rosha. He said in a dull and cold tone, "Hand over immediately, including the planet's Prime Minister Torreso Borre. including five wanted prisoners, and surrender their weapons. Otherwise, all prisoners will be executed immediately after 24 standard hours. The above instructions will apply to every prisoner from now on, and we will keep the prisoner for a maximum of 24 hours."
Rosha did not stop resisting. After 24 hours, more than 100,000 prisoners were driven to a plain. Then a Victory II-class Star Destroyer in the sky turned its muzzle, and several Turbolaser beams fell from the sky!
