Chapter 3326 The Raging Waves of Orpheus (5)
Although the Hades drill is very practical, it also has an obvious shortcoming, that is, because the body is too heavy, its moving speed is relatively slow. Although the heavy The armor makes it very strong, but it also makes it an easy target for enemy anti-armor fire, often requiring artillery cover to quickly open an assault route for follow-up troops.
But this time the Krieg Legion unexpectedly introduced this equipment into the gang. Its shortcomings are not so obvious because the battlefield is not big.
Faced with the roaring Hades drills, the Immortals army formation was obviously difficult to resist. The Gauss weapons in their hands could not effectively kill the opponent. The main reason was that the fronts of these Hades drills were additionally equipped with plasma. Although the energy reserve of the shield is only 3 hours, it is enough.
At the same time, it also installed many additional weapons, including bolters and assault cannons. Some Krieg soldiers even deployed artillery positions on the roof of the vehicle, using light artillery and mortars to continue firing. Attack the opponent, and behind the vehicle are groups of silent infantrymen running fast and silent.
Boom——
Suddenly, a Hades drill shook violently, and the soldiers on the roof were thrown off. A huge multi-legged machine had climbed onto the vehicle. It was sharp. Its limbs rubbed against the armor, making a harsh sound. Then it raised its head, and its cave-like mouthparts slowly opened and released a green beam.
In a way that is difficult for humans to understand, the huge Hades drill began to gradually become transparent. Although the Krieg soldiers behind the gunfire tried to destroy the tomb guard, it still used Banish after a few seconds. The weapon threw the vehicle into the dimension.
After that, it did not continue to attack the Krieg soldiers. Instead, it turned around, rushed towards the wall, and disappeared directly into the wall in full view of everyone.
Without a Hades drill, a gap immediately appeared in the advancing formation. The Immortals began to move towards the gap. The front defense of the Hades drill was strong, but the sides were not so strong. It could be damaged if attacked from the side, so Krieger officers immediately ordered soldiers to fill the gap and cover the sides of the drill.
A sharp whistle sounded, and the Krieg soldiers began to run.
At the same time, a large number of metal beetles also swarmed along the walls and ceiling. Apparently the Necron commander was aware of the threat here.
The Krieg officers have learned about the power of metal beetles from the manual and know how to deal with them. Several servitor turrets on the Hades drill rotated and then spewed out scorching flames. The passage ahead was engulfed in a sea of fire - although these flames could not destroy the slightly larger undead units, they had a miraculous effect on the tiny metal beetles.
After the tiny original parts in the body were overloaded by the high temperature, these metal beetles fell like raindrops one after another, while the immortals wrapped in flames collided with living life, mixing liquid metal with hot blood. Sprinkle to the ground.
"The Engineer Regiment reported that the advance was smooth, but a Hades drilling rig was destroyed by the enemy."
In the temporary command post formed by the landing module, Marshal Wenner, wearing a silver breathing mask, looked at the data and flash points flowing on the simple tactical instrument, and listened to reports from all sides. No one knew what his expression was.
At first, he took the initiative to ask Soshyan to participate in the gang-hopping operation but was not approved. After all, as the head coach of this Krieg army, Soshyan really couldn’t go for such a no-return operation. Well and other explanations, but Wenner had a reason for doing this
He is very old and has He is 87 years old, which is an unusually long life for a Krieg. He has been fighting for the Empire for 70 years and has basically replaced all his body parts. Perhaps it is the Emperor's special protection that has allowed him to die again and again. He managed to escape, but the long-term battle and pain still made him feel what a soldier fears most - aging.
Wenner clearly realized that he was getting old. Without life-extending surgery, he would soon be unable to hold weapons and would need help even to stand. In the end, he could only rely on machinery to maintain his life. , lying motionless on the bed
This is something he cannot accept. As early as when he was forty, he longed for a glorious death. This is the ending that a Krieg should have, not like the cowards they despised. Huddled in life support machinery in fear and despair.
He wanted to give himself a decent ending while he could still move and fight. But perhaps aware of his thoughts, the Ministry of Military Affairs did not send him any combat missions for a long time. He has been engaged in recruit training in his hometown, with the highest military rank that a Krieg can obtain. Perhaps military affairs The ministry hopes he can "live the rest of his life in peace."
Wenner didn't want it, he even felt fear for the first time when he woke up in the middle of the night, the fear of death by incompetence.
Although Soshyan has been "holding down" him by saying "the Krieg Army on the ground still needs your command", Wenner knows very well that with the defense preparations made by the empire on Amalur Prime And the military strength, the battlefield there is actually not too dangerous. Maybe he will have to squat in the command post, but the Kriegs cannot disobey orders. Soshyan is now the supreme commander, and he must obey conditions.
Finally, he wrote a private petition to Soshyan, detailing the reasons for his request, hoping that Soshyan could fulfill his last wish as an old Krieg man.
Perhaps moved by his sincerity, Soshyan agreed to his request and let Wenner follow his bravest soldiers aboard the enemy's flagship to participate in this battle with no return and the most glorious battle. .
Now his wish was granted, but not enough.
This battle must be won. Wenner knows this very well, because it is related to the survival of the entire Orpheus, so he will never die before victory.
"Let the 17th line army speed up and break through the passage within half an hour. Is the 87th Armored Regiment ready?"
Not far from the landing site, you can already hear To the low roar of the engine and the sound of the tracks crushing.
Not two seconds after he asked in a low voice, an officer immediately saluted and answered.
"Report! The 87th Armored Regiment is ready! But a company of tanks has been left in space!"

"Order them to advance along the third channel on the left to cover the advance of the 21st line of troops! There seems to be an energy center ahead, and this must be occupied!"
"Yes!"< br>
At this time, an officer ran over, saluted and said loudly:
"The 8th Assault Regiment of the Orps Death Army is asking for support! They were blocked by the enemy in front of a small pyramid, suffering heavy casualties and unable to break through. !"
Wenner raised his head slightly, thought for a moment and replied:
"Order the 918th Infantry Regiment to support them"
"Yes!"
