"Then the rebels will overcome the empire's troops and take the city."

This is the answer because it is still hypothetical. The other options imply that it has already happened or is happening, however it is just the fear of the leaders.

(Also, for curiosity's sake - what is the context? It sounds like Star Wars.)
