Chapter 665 Sacrifice Array
Lasers were flying and explosive shells were shooting. A cultist looked at the firepower above the imperial positions. He squatted in a crater holding his automatic gun in despair. It regrets, why did it join this damn cult and leave its own world, and why did it come to Holy Terra to fight. Those damn Chaos Space Marines don't regard them as human beings at all, and the Empire is the same.
Now they have completely become a group of cannon fodder that can be consumed at will. They have no human dignity at all. There are countless regretful and angry people among them. After a large number of these people gather together, the Chaos troops suddenly Splits began to appear.
After all, their blasphemous beliefs cannot support their continued morale on this hell-like battlefield. Those fanatical believers are only a minority. In fact, the large number of cultists are They join the cult because they can have enough to eat in their own world, because only by joining the cult can they have a way out.
The cultist looked at the corpses of his companions around him. They had left more than 50,000 corpses on this front, and these more than 50,000 corpses could not even break through, even if the empire was the most vulnerable. A trench, because the firepower and defensive tactics of the imperial troops have changed. Under the powerful firepower held by the empire, the human sea tactics of the Chaos side are completely killing people.
No matter how much force they expend, they can't break through the Empire's defense line. They can only leave behind a lot of corpses, which still has no effect on the Empire's position.
“I don’t want to die!!”
The cultist looked at the bombs and lasers flying in the sky. It hugged its automatic gun tightly and lay on the ground. It didn't dare to move on the ground, and kept saying in its own low Gothic language that it didn't want to die, but would it die if it didn't want to? That is absolutely impossible.
A mortar shell was fired from an unknown direction, and then landed directly in the crater. The cultist was killed on the spot with a large pile of fleshy foam, and turned into a mass of flesh on the battlefield. Pile of blood mist.
Just after it was blown into a bloody mist, bursts of loud roars suddenly appeared on the battlefield again, and cultists suddenly rushed out of the trenches and rushed towards the empire's positions. Some had fear on their faces, some had madness, and some had numbness. They did not voluntarily charge towards the Empire's positions. Behind them, there were Chaos Space Marines and those real evil spirits. The supervising team of the regular army of the believers.
They must not take a step back, because if they take a step back, those Chaos Space Marines and those cultist supervising teams will kill them all. They have never thought of resisting at all, because resisting will have no effect. After all, they want to get rid of them. It's not just the Imperials who kill them. Those Chaos Space Marines and those real cultist troops are actually no better to them than the Imperials.
Both sides are dead. Instead of resisting those demigod-like Chaos Space Marines, it is better to rush directly to the Empire's position. If they can capture the Empire's position, then they will have it. It is possible to survive.
But is this possible? This time, the charging cultists pulled all 100,000 people onto the battlefield and asked them to charge collectively towards the Empire's positions. They hoped to use them to consume the attention of the Empire's people and give the Chaos Space Marines a chance to escape from the Empire's positions. Going sideways, as long as the Chaos Space Marines enter the Imperial position, the Imperial position will be completely defeated.
The war has reached this point. In fact, the Chaos Space Marines and those cultists no longer know what they are doing now. There is no logistical support and no follow-up troops. The various troops are scattered. Like an isolated island in the sea, they could only continue to attack the imperial troops in their own area, and they were also Chaos troops with a large number of troops.
After some small-scale Chaos troops descended on the hive, they were directly surrounded and suppressed by the Empire's militia and planetary defense forces. They did not even have time to participate in the great war that broke out across Terra in the following days. Large-scale battles, and now, those larger Chaos troops no longer know what they should do. The only thing they do is to continuously attack those Imperial troops.
They are constantly looking for ways to destroy the empire's positions one by one. In fact, they themselves don't know why they do these things. Those cultists fell into chaos just to have enough to eat, while those cult regulars fell into chaos because of the blasphemous Faith, but when the war has reached this point, even the regular soldiers of the cult feel that everything they do is meaningless? Because the Chaos Gods have not responded to their sacrifices for a long time, as if the sacrifices on Holy Terra would be blocked by something.
The blessings they received through various sacrifices to their masters were getting less and less, as if their blasphemous masters were ignoring them. This situation made those Many of the cultists on Holy Terra have wavered. Imperial troops are encircling them every day. Their troops are disappearing every day. Even the Chaos Astartes are being organized in front of them. Annihilate.
Is this war really still meaningful? Why do they want to participate in this war? Isn't the reason why most of them join the cult just to make a living and not starve to death on their home planet? This is what many cultists are thinking right now.
Gradually, many rebels appeared among the cultists. Yes, rebels appeared again among the rebels. These guys were completely defeated in this bad war. They hoped that they could Fight your way to the spaceport, then seize the ship to escape Holy Terra, but is that possible? Their behavior was quickly dealt with by the Chaos Space Marines.
As for the internal strife of the cultists, the empire is also very clear about this situation, and for this situation, the empire only strongly supports it. As for how to support it, it is very simple. A group of judges The officer took advantage of the darkness to sneak into the cultists' position, and then gave a wave of weapons and equipment to the cultist rebels who had contacted them in advance, including a batch of standard weapons and equipment for the imperial militia.
These cultist rebels who obtained weapons and equipment started their killing directly in their positions that night. They have only one idea now, that is, they want to break away from their so-called masters, the Chaos Space Marines, and then find A ship escaped directly from Holy Terra. And those Chaos Astartes who were attacked were also very unlucky, because they were not too vigilant towards these cultists who they regarded as ants, and they were directly secretly given to them by the cultists on their transport vehicles. All the melta bombs planted exploded into the sky. Speaking of which, those Chaos Astartes were really in despair.
They are now even using the captured Chimera troop carriers as replacements for the Rhinos, and there are simply not enough. Some Chaos Space Marine warbands even paid for a few Chimeras. There will also be a fight when pulling a troop transport. These Chaos Space Marines have been completely surrounded by the Empire and turned into a group of desperate wolves. They can only use all available resources around them to try their best to defeat the Empire. Stay alive in the hands of Stat.
However, they will not survive for long. Several Chaos warbands have been completely defeated. All their Chaos Space Marines have been folded on Holy Terra. Today, Holy Terra has completely It has turned into a chaotic meat grinder, and the initiator of everything, the Chaos Warmaster, is now standing on his flagship, watching the entire Holy Terra through the power given to it by the Destruction Power. battlefield.
It stared at the corpses of the destroyed Chaos Space Marine Chapters and the cultists who filled the Imperial positions with corpses. It suddenly let out a burst of laughter, the laughter was like a hundred people In the ensemble, twisted, crazy, profane, these adjectives are not suitable to describe this sound, but there are no better adjectives to describe this sound.
It smiled twistedly, and as it laughed, the holographic projection-like thing built with the power of destruction in front of it quickly zoomed in, and soon its perspective reached the sky. The entire continental plate above Holy Terra was visible at a glance, and when the perspective changed to this scene, the corpses of the cultists and the corpses of the Chaos Space Marines were suddenly outlined.
The outline of who it is is gradually outlined, and a strange scene suddenly appears on the thing like a holographic projection. It is a formation, a formation based on the continental plate. , in fact, a teleportation array is also a sacrifice array. It will sacrifice those cultists and Chaos Space Marines who died on Holy Terra. At the same time, it will also teleport Abaddon and his troops to Holy Terra. , the climax of the Third Siege of Terra begins today.
The Titan Legion of the Dark Mechanicus will also enter the battlefield today, and together with Abaddon's demon army and its troops, they will show the power of Chaos to the Holy God Terra.
However, there are still some different opinions among Abaddon's troops. Representatives include the Chaos Astartes warband second only to Abaddon, the Red Corsairs, who participated with Abaddon. In this battle, they did not want to contribute at all, especially when they saw Abaddon's use of the cannon fodder, they did not want to contribute at all.
Who knows what Abaddon is thinking now. It has completely changed and has become a chaotic bus. All kinds of chaotic forces have filled its body, making it Its thinking mode is getting more and more outrageous. It has even become a demon and feels that it is not controlled by Chaos. This is not just being controlled. It is just like its father. It has become a puppet of Chaos without knowing it. .
After the Red Pirates determined that they did not want to participate, they simply ran away with their troops, without even trying to communicate with Abaddon, because Huron knew that communicating with Abaddon today was just playing the piano to a cow, and there was no such thing. necessary.
As for the departure of the Red Pirates, Abaddon didn't have much to say. The Red Pirates just left and they had no impact on the battle situation.
With the completion of the arrangement of Abaddon's magic circle, a strange light suddenly appeared in the sky above the Holy God Terra. With the appearance of those lights, strange sounds appeared in the Holy God. Above Terra, in a large number of hives, people heard these sounds, and when these sounds appeared, demons suddenly appeared in those hives.
Various demons continue to appear on Holy Terra. They appear in various strange locations. Some appear in the wilderness, while others appear in the positions of the imperial troops. Above, for a time, the human positions began to collapse in large numbers, and various demons appeared on the human positions. As soon as the demons entered the human positions, bloody and cruel massacres began.
Mortals simply cannot resist for long under the attack of those demons. Even the Astartes suffered heavy casualties from the attack of demons. This situation also made Dorne, who is now responsible for the defense task, begin The mobilization of various troops was urgently adjusted.
However, compared to the first siege of Terra, the situation on Terra today is much better. Although most of them have seen demons, most of them are not afraid. The weapons in his hands fought off some demons.
For the residents on Terra today, they are not afraid of any enemies at all. They have gone completely crazy to protect the God Emperor and Terra. No matter what it is, as long as it invades Terra, If they threaten the great God-Emperor, they cannot allow them to exist in this world.
But the demonic offensive could not be stopped by the civilian offensive. Fortunately, the support of the Planetary Defense Force and the militia was quick and the battle line was stabilized in time. However, it was not easy, and the number of casualties was already high. It has reached the point where Wang Ming can't stand it, but now the 21st Legion and other Astartes troops can't do much. There are too many demons on the battlefield, and there are also those former Chaos Ah Counterattack by the Stats.
The Holy God Terra turned into a hot kiln in an instant, and the orbital defense firepower was also constantly supporting the ground. The demons in the wilderness could be suppressed by orbital strikes, but the battlefield in the hive city But it didn't work, and when the news of the appearance of the demon primarch came from those hives, the battlefield completely became white-hot.
