Chapter 701: Ewoks
In the Dense Jungle of Lorta, a Lortan Jungle Troop is resting in its Camp.
These people are all wearing Jungle Camouflage Uniforms, and their faces are also painted Jungle Green with Waterproof Oil Paint. They have all the Tools such as Ropes, Multi-Purpose Knives, Crossbow Bolts, Insect Repellents, and Whistles. Some of them are dealing with some Animals that have just been hunted, they are skilled, and they look like Veterans.
Alarm Devices and Traps had already been set up around the Camp, and Soldiers were watching the surroundings at all times to ensure the safety of the Camp. Under all kinds of Camouflage, even at a distance, it is impossible to distinguish this Tent Area from the Surrounding Jungle.
These are the Jungle Troops individually selected by the Lortan Civilization, and they are going to rely on these Troops, coupled with the activities of the Lortan Civilization's Smuggling Fleet, to hold back the Fourth Civilization from two aspects of action.
They do not accept the rule of the Republic, let alone the rule of the Fourth Civilization, they only recognize the Hutts. In fact, if the time is pushed back a month or two, Tang Xiao can use the relationship between the Hutt Arok Besadii to make the Lortan Civilization submit, not to say to make them more obedient, but at least not to cause trouble.
But now the relationship between the Fourth Civilization and the Hutts is very delicate after their betrayal. Tang Xiao can't let the Lortan Civilization have the opportunity to contact the Hutts, to allow the Hutts to bury a nail within the Control Area of the Fourth Civilization.
For the Lortan Civilization, their wishful thinking is also very loud.
The Power of the Republic has indeed been driven away by the Fourth Civilization, but it is not enough for them to win independence, so they need to use the Power of the Republic to drive out the Fourth Civilization. After Two Tugs-of-War, the Fourth Civilization would be defeated and they would not dare to covet this place again, and after the Ruling Power of the Republic was wiped out once, they only had to rely on their Local Power to maintain their rule of Lorta.
In this way, Lorta only needs to declare accepting the rule of the Republic on the surface, but in fact, manage itself and become an Independent Regime.
The Lortan Civilization thought they made a good plan. After all, in their view, with the strength of the Galactic Republic, the Fourth Civilization would collapse if they fought a few times.
However, they have missed too many things. They don't know anything about the Fourth Civilization, such as...
Ewoks.
"Listen, for the next 30 Minutes we'll eat in shifts, then move North to join the 18th and 22nd Battalions to raid the City Hall of Ziren City. Over there, the Separatist Officers have completed the handover and there are now 200 Officials in the City Hall. The internal response has been arranged, and they will keep us informed of the situation and even create chaos for the Separatists." In the Central Camp, the Lortan Commander made Combat Deployments on the Map.
He made a few marks and then said: "The goal of the 18th Battalion is to raid the Spaceport of Ziren City to see if they can capture some Separatist Stealth Starfighters. The goal of the 22nd Battalion is the Ziren City Barracks. The Separatists have a Human Force that is stationed in a University in the Suburbs, and their Battle Droids are stationed in the Factory Area. The Battle Droids are not to be feared, as long as we raid and capture the Human Troops on the University side, the Droids are easy to deal with..."
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of the Camp Area, a Lortan Sentry covered in leaves was sitting on a flourishing tree, merging himself with it. In his hand, he held a Sniper Crossbow produced by Lorta, which was also Camouflaged with leaves.
He is always observing the surroundings with a Monocular, and constantly switching between Infrared and Thermal Detection Modes to ensure that nothing is missed. This man is definitely the Elite of the Elite. Even though he has maintained this posture for several hours, he has not moved at all. Only when the breeze is blowing, he adjusts his posture slightly with the help of the swing of the leaves.
He moved the direction slightly, and scanned the front with the Monocular again, without any abnormalities.
However, he didn't realize at all that after his eyes swept over, an eye suddenly opened in a small patch of grass on the side! At a distance where the Lothar had used his Monocular to see clearly, this eye knew exactly where the Lortan Sentry was.
The Lortan Sentry saw that the time was up, gently opened the Communicator close to his throat, and uttered a few words without moving his lips, "A3 Whistle is normal."
Then he turned off the Communicator.
However, at this moment when he was most relaxed, an almost Undetectable Poisonous Arrow arrived piercing his neck in an instant!
The Sentry's eyes widened, and he subconsciously wanted to sound the alarm, but he was horrified to find that he couldn't make any sound, he couldn't even breathe! He just felt like something was covering his mouth and nose, and he wanted to tear it off so that he could breathe fresh air.
He tore frantically, ripped off his Air Filter Mask, ripped off the Communicator, but the feeling in his throat of his mouth and nose being covered was still the same! The suffocation made him start to feel a little dazed, and the blood vessels on his neck where he was shot by the Poisonous Arrow were protruding and turning green.
The Sentry wanted to jump down from the tree for help, but a Furry Hand suddenly stretched out from behind him and pushed him down. This hand is not big and It seems that this person's figure is at most equivalent to a child, but his strength is beyond imagination! The Sentry in a suffocated state doesn't even have the strength to break free!
He could only just be pressed in place, feeling the slow loss of life, and after a last instinctive twitch, his body went limp.
In less than a Minute, 28 Sentry Posts set up around the Camp were attacked at the same time, and all of them were within less than a second after they sent out the Safety Signal!
"...And our task is to capture the City Hall, capture all the Officials sent by the Separatists and hang them alive on the street lights outside the City Hall! Let these hillbillies from Dawn understand that us Lortans are terrible!" In the Command Post, the Lortan Commander was continuing to arrange the Battle Plan.
However, in the next second, the Camp of this Lortan Troop was attacked without realizing it!
Suddenly there were a lot of small voices in the Jungle, which seemed to be chattering in a strange language, and then the Lortan Soldiers who were preparing to eat in the middle of the Camp were shot down by a Burst of Poisonous Arrows!
These Arrows are all Poisoned, and the Neurotoxin extracted from an Aquatic Fish native to Endor has the function of paralyzing the target's Respiratory Organs. Once poisoned, it will produce the illusion that the mouth and nose are covered, making the target just want to desperately take off all the things worn on their heads, and then die a very painful yet silent death from suffocation.
