The Imperial troops debarked from the landspeeders some one mile outside the city of Ishuunt, a city with a population of more than one hundred thousand Ishori. The Imperial troops deployed the Artillery in camoflauged emplacements, then some one hundred fifty stormtroopers strapped on jungle camoflague armour while the other fifty marched into the city in order to draw out the armed Naval officers that were conducting the riot. After thirty minutes of terse waiting, and hearing cries, and shouts over the comlinks, the remaining thirty stormtroopers emerged from the city, being chased by a mob of some two hundred Naval cadets armed with blasters, and led by an aging Ishori commander, a former Rear-Admiral, guessing by his medals, and uniform. When they approached within blaster range of the concealed troops, one of them raised a hand, then all thirty of them dropped to the ground, the signal to open fire. The meadow erupted into a firestorm as the Imperial artillery, and troops opened fire on the onrushing Naval cadets, and officers. Many were felled within the first minute, and some managed to return fire, while others simply dropped their weapons and ran for their lives. Five more of the decoy force stormtroopers were killed before the battle was over. Emerging from their hidden cover, the jungle commando disguised stormtroopers surrounded the remaining thirty Ishori in the middle of the field, and beckoned ambuluances just now arriving from the captial to cart them off to hospitals. Some twenty had managed to make it back inside the city, but they were too scared now to continue rioting. The city of Ishuunt was now secure. The stormtrooper commander sent five clicks on his comlink to the General, a job well done with light casualties.
The next city with roits was a small city, but an important one as it contained the main commerical landing and offloading platforms for freighters arriving offplanet with shipments of raw materiels for the manufacturing plants on Isht. Some forty Naval officers, former guards and inspectors at the spaceport, had siezed control of three mobile artillery platform from a local weapons depot, and were using them to slowly wear down and destroyed bulk freighters as they were being unloaded, causing millions of credits worth of damage. Two Juggernaughts, and fifty stormtroopers were sent to quell this uprising. The stormtroopers went in first, clearing a path for the Juggernaughts. Two stormtroopers were killed by blasts from one of the MAEs, then the Juggernaughts came in. One blasted a MAE with a medium laser cannon in seconds after entering the landing field, reducing it to molten scrap and killing the nine officers that had manned it. The Juggernaught then entered the hangar bay completley, and used it's considerable array of firepower to reach across the landing field, and blow to @#%$ another MAE that was sneaking up on a vulnerbale Bulk cruiser containing a valuable shipment of Corusca Gems to be melted, and reformed into fine glass decanters. The third MAE was missing, but then it suddenly appeared in the blind spot of the Juggernaught, preparing to blast it's vulnerable machinery and immobilize it. But, the Ishori Naval Officers had forgotton one criticalt thing. There were two Juggernaughts in the area. Before the MAE could fire off a shot, it was enveloped in fire from the heavy laser cannon of the other Juggernaught, having come to assist it's partner from the other side of the field. Soon afterwards, the stormtroopers had rounded up, and imprisoned the remaining thirteen rioters Naval officers. The main Juggernaught commander sent a six click comlink message to the General in charge, a job well done with minimal casualties.
The third city in question was a northern city, not important at all by Imperial standards, but never the less a city that needed to be subdued in order for Imperial power, peace, and goodwill to reign on Isht. One platoon of forty stormtroopers and a E-web were sent here. The Imperials went in on a disguised landspeeder, and set up the E-web to where it could fire out of the main hold of the speeder. Then, they drove by the site were some fifty Naval cadets were cheering on three officers that were setting fire to flags with Imperial emblems on them. While Special Navy troopers already in placed fire their sniper rifles on the officers, the E-web opened up on the crowd, mowing down numerous cadets. Within five minutes it was all over, all the rioters were dead. The Commander sent a comlink flash to the General, seven clicks. A job well done, no Imperial casualties.
The General recieved these reports and others that told him that the riots had all been quelled within a day. One day, and their jobs were already done. Now it was time for the rebuilding to begin.........
