Chapter 586: Return to the Earth
In fact, it's not surprising that the commander of the Republic on Sarapin thinks this way, because anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems cannot stay in the Inner Rim, let alone the Core Worlds for a long time, because the Fleet of the Galactic Republic will come back for support in an endless stream.
You must know that this is the Core Worlds where those nobles live! Not the Middle Rim and Outer Rim where those mud-legged rednecks are. The security of the Core Worlds must not be neglected!
So it makes sense to run away after robbing a wave of energy reserves. You must know that the energy stored in the Supply Station is equivalent to tens of Billions of Credits!
Compared with this amazing benefit, the loss of some Fleets and Droids is really nothing.
As for other possibilities, the Commander of Sarapin hadn't thought about it at all.
Orbital Bombardment? If the Confederacy dared to do this today, half of the Planets in their territory would have to rebel tomorrow! Destroy the Power Generation Facilities? These Power Generating Devices, which are only 40 meters high on the ground and tens of thousands of meters deep underground, can be shaken by the poor Droids carried by this Fleet?
The Commander of the Republic Defense Force allocated half of the 50,000 Soldiers to take a Transport to the remaining Supply Space Stations for defense.
At this time, Sev'rance Tann also showed a cold smile on her face.
...
Alaris Prime.
More than a dozen Acclamator-class Assault Ships landed on the surface of the Moon, and thousands of LAAT/I Assault Gunships carried the Clone Army of the Republic and landed on the Moon, fighting fiercely with the Droid Army abandoned by the Confederacy.
Those Droids were scattered all over the several islands used as battlefields, there were more than 10,000 units, but they were completely vulnerable to the elite Clone Troopers, and they were quickly wiped out.
A Delta-7 Starfighter landed on a deserted island where the final battle took place, and a person jumped from it.
He was wearing a dark brown waterproof windbreaker with red edges. This windbreaker looks very worn, like a raincoat that has been worn for a long time, and the metal Lightsaber Handle on his waist can be clearly seen. As a Jedi Knight, he used such a trench coat to replace the coarse cloth cloak commonly used by other Jedi Knights.
He lifted the hood of the windbreaker, and a weather-beaten uncle appeared in front of him. He is a human being, with swollen eye sockets, rough skin, and the beard at the corner of his mouth looks like it hasn't been cleaned for a long time. At first glance, he really looks like an uncle living in poverty.
This man walked on the battlefield, walked past the Droid wreckage everywhere, and then...the pile of corpses of the Soldiers of the Republic.
Looking at these Soldiers in the Uniform of the Republic, and the frightened expressions on their even immature faces, it is not difficult to judge how desperate they were at that time.
Droids have no mercy and will not leave a living. The Soldiers of the Republic were divided and surrounded on this flat beach. In the end, they could only pile up the corpses of their Comrades-in-Arms as bunkers. Some people made white flags out of underwear or bandages, put them on Blasters and held them up high to surrender, but they were still greeted by the ruthless iron hooves of the Droid Army.
Some people even fell to the ground and still breathed a sigh of relief, but they were directly trampled to death by the Droids that trampled all the way.
Farther afield lay the bodies of Thousands of Wookiees. These brave and fearless Wookiees launched a desperate charge at the last moment, and the wreckage of several Droids fell around the bodies of almost everyone, but it can be seen from the densely packed Blaster Beam burn marks on their bodies that finally, their sacrifice was also extremely tragic.
The Jedi Knight sighed, knelt on the ground, picked up the sand on the beach with a strong smell of gunpowder smoke, buried his face deeply in it, and muttered words.
At this time, a Young Human Jedi Padawan came from the other side. He was wearing a dark blue cloak, with silver hair and a small braid at the side of his ear, tied with wooden beads.
"Master, I found the body of Jor Drakas...but he..." The Padawan also had a heavy expression, and he shook his head.
The Jedi Master stood up and said slowly: "The earth is mourning, Stam Reath. [Note 1] These young and fresh lives have just disappeared, but the pain and resentment before their death has penetrated deep into the earth."
Jedi Padawan Stam Reath put his hands on his chest, bowed deeply to the pile of corpses, and said: "The crimes committed by separatism will definitely be punished."
The Jedi Master nodded and walked forward.
Soon, they came to a place that was very close to the base of the Droid Army on the deserted island, where some Clone Troopers were sorting out the corpsesā€”the corpses of hundreds of Clone Troopers. These Clone Troopers fought to the last bullet, and they also caused heavy losses to the Droid Army, but in the end, they were still outnumbered and all sacrificed.
Until the end, they still maintained a group of five, back-to-back club formation, which shows that they fought enemies in all directions.
Judging from the situation at the scene, it was The Force, The Force of the Dark Side, that tore through their last line of defense.
The body of the Jedi Knight Jor Drakas fell here. His limbs were cut off, and a Lightsaber pierced a large hole in his chest. His death was extremely miserable.
"Jor Drakas, before he died, had already fallen into the Dark Side, Master." Stam Reath said.
"But he still fought to the end for the Republic..." said the Jedi Master. "Perhaps it was the power of the Dark Side that made him shine. He dealt a blow to his enemies."
Stam Reath frowned. "I didn't see that, sorry, sir."
"Listen to the voice of the earth and feel the guidance of The Force. Another powerful user of the Dark Side, his Force has been confused was them." The Jedi Master sighed, squatted down, and helped the dying Jor Drakas, closing his eyes, "Return to the Earth, Great Jedi. Your deeds will be remembered, and will never be dimmed by the fall of the last moment."
On the other side came a Clone Commander with a yellow mark on his Armor, saluted the Jedi Master and said, "General Shen-Jon, the remaining Separatist Droids on the Alaris Prime have all been cleaned up. However, the M-917th Combat Regiment of the Mytaranor Sector Defense Force and the 061st Clone Assault Battalion have been confirmed to be completely wiped out, and the establishment will be removed."
The Commander also sighed, and continued: "We have received an Emergency Notification from the Core Worlds that the Separatists are besieging Sarapin."
