Chapter 1062: The Day of the Decisive Battle (4)
1062, the day of the decisive battle (fourth)
The planet Eriyadu was once the most economically developed planet in the outer ring of the Milky Way, and even more developed than the planet Christopher Sith. It mainly relies on a self-sufficiency industrial system and very developed foreign trade.
Because it is located in a transportation hub, the trade and commerce here are very developed, and countless wealthy people have been born. In addition, the planet Eriadu is suitable for the climate and rich in resources. In order to meet the needs of these wealthy people for the environment and materials, there are also many agricultural areas on the planet.
After the outbreak of the war, under the command of Governor Wilhoff Takin, the planet Eriyadu continued to hoard a large amount of resources and evacuate the population. However, the evacuation efforts were limited after all, because all transport ships were given priority to guarantee war materials.
There are still a large number of people who stay on the planet. They either do not have the ability to leave or have fantasies that separatism cannot conquer this planet with heavy troops. Especially under the rendering of propaganda machines, they continue to win in defensive battles, and suppress the Salest people on the industrial planet Salest, Governor Takin, who is breathless in the image of a god of war.
Many people believe that under the leadership of Governor Takin, they will not lose, especially behind them, there is a continuous stream of Republic reinforcements. Therefore, even when the planet Talstrá, Eriadu Galaxy 5, was still less than 3 billion people chose to leave.
After all, the conditions on the Eriad planet are really good. The environment is good, the transportation is convenient, the policies are good, and there are many opportunities. In the outer ring of the Milky Way, it belongs to a very small number of planets that are not in a state of exploitation.
However, even Wilker Tarkin himself did not expect the development of the subsequent battle.
In just a few hours of combat, separatism took advantage of the opportunity of a stellar flare to turn the tables, from the state of being impossible to break through the solid line of defense between the planet Eriadu and the satellite, to break through the satellite defense and landing on the satellite, and triggering a hyperspace storm, cutting off external traffic!
They made countless pre-appropriation, but the only thing they did not expect was that the traffic was cut off! If it weren't for this, the Galactic Republic would have the ability to guarantee the supply of the planet Eriadu!
So a total of 19 billion people remained on the planet.
19 billion people!
Even if Governor Takin implemented the grain distribution system as soon as possible and immediately organized all residents to reclaim farmland and expand agricultural production, there was no way to meet everyone's needs.
Half a month after the hyperspace storm broke out, people starved to death on the planet Eriadu, and this situation became more and more serious, and in the end it was almost completely out of control!
Especially in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the planetary army, Governor Takin was preparing to carry out the final resistance here, so the food supply of all the troops was still met first, and the famine on the planet Eriyadu became more and more serious.
Almost every day, hourly, and minute, people starve to death, starting from the starve of thin people to the entire village and town to the end!
The hungry people got up several times and wanted to resist, but they were all bloody suppressed by the Republic's army, which was well-weaponed and well-fed.
In the end, those who have no jobs and cannot be selected into the army can only choose to rely on food once that day to live, and then slowly wait for death.
After experiencing resistance and suppression, as well as hunger that cannot see the end, 6 billion people died on the planet Eriyadu in the second month after the hyperspace storm broke out!
What does this mean? It is equivalent to two months and 70 days, and the population of the earth died!
And the death toll is increasing every minute!
Relatively speaking, the fleet of the Fourth Civilization is much simpler. Their total naval force is about 500,000, of which 200,000 are humans, and only 300,000 of them need to be eaten among the 1.3 million army. The supplies carried by the fleet and the supplies obtained from the Eriyadu satellite are completely sufficient.
In fact, if it weren't for the fear that the Republic's army would soon arrive after the hyperspace storm subsided, Sephrans-Tann would have to wait a few more months before the order on the planet Eriad would collapse.
When prosperity is the suffering of the people; when death is the suffering of the people...
Sephrans-Tann and Ling Liang used the lives of these 6 billion people to exchange for the best opportunity to capture the planet Eriadu...
And Wilker Tarkin also used the lives of these 6 billion people to exchange for a defense system throughout the planet and a huge continental army with a total number of 100 million people!
Maybe they did not expect such tragic consequences when they issued the order, but this tragic fact was caused by them. And even if they knew the consequences, the same instructions would still be issued from their mouths...
Human life has become the last thing to consider at this time.
...
21bby, July 1 night.
As a violent light flashed in the sky, more than 20 nuclear bombs exploded on the surface of Eriyadu planet. Eriyadu planet finally ushered in the final moment of decisive battle!
Planetary shield, broken!
Rumble~~~~~~~~~ The huge cloud of mushrooms that were thousands of meters high were raised on the ground. These nuclear bombs were originally just to strike the planet's shields, so they did not aim at the ground targets, because many of them erupted in the sea and mountains and did not blow up the city, but the terrifying power and rumbling roar still played the elegy of the planet Eriadu!
The attack from outside the sky paused for less than 20 minutes only because of the breaking of the planetary shield, followed by a more precise and ruthless blow!
Tactical nuclear bombs fall from the sky, reduced power turbo laser beams fall from the sky, incendiary bombs fall from the sky, and fighter jets loaded with ammunition fall from the sky...
The god of death descended from the sky!
This time, they are targeting cities, factories and military targets!
The last kindness of the Fourth Civilization Fleet was that it did not aim at the agricultural area, but in addition, the fingers of the warship operator pressed the fire button were calm and stable. Each press meant that a target was smoothed out and the deaths of hundreds of people!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
!
A violent explosion continued to stir up in the city. Those who were waiting for food to be distributed in a long queue just looked at the sky numbly and then let the explosion swallow them up.
The suspended truck full of newly recruited soldiers was blown into the sky in the explosion, and a small piece of bread was tightly pinched on a broken hand.
The Republic soldiers who had shown their might before immediately rolled and crawled to the cover, pointing to the sky with the explosive rifle in their hands in despair.
The next second, groups of vulture robot fighter jets rushed over and shot violently at the ground!
Chapter completed!
