First published in Foundations Friends: Stories in Honor of Isaac Asimov (1989), by Harry Turtledove. This Science Fiction Short Story is an Interquel, taking place between the events of "The General (Foundation)" and "The Mule", describing the "Great Sack".Emperor Dagobert VIII, the latest in a long line of galactic emperors living on the City Planet Trantor, is losing ground against Gilmer, a galactic warlord intent on taking Trantor so that he can Sack the planet of its valuables. With only one other sector on the planet still fighting Gilmer's forces, he evacuates, leaving the University to fend for itself against a military intent on pacifying the entire planet.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })With Dagobert VIII gone from Trantor, Gilmer considers himself "Emperor of the Galaxy and Lord of All", with only one remaining threat to his throne, the University. The students and faculty, having turned warriors for the cause of defending what they consider more precious than their lives, have proven remarkably effective but offer a cease-fire to discuss terms of surrender. | |

Badass Bookworm: Gilmer, a Galactic Conqueror with an army large enough to take most of Trantor is impressed by the students-turned-soldiers when he visits the University, which is the one sector of the City Planet that he hasn't won by force. These college students had fought his soldiers back multiple times, and he was invited to discuss terms for peace. The Dean of the university is their general, the head librarian is their chief of staff, and their dietician is their quartermaster. | |
