Chapter 331: Precise annihilation, the giant molten iron beast in the thick smoke!
The sacred music of the Savior becomes louder and louder amidst the roar of artillery fire.
The land is covered with terrifying chitin-shelled and clawed creatures.
Under the command of the Tyranid beasts, these executioners crossed the thick defensive walls under the gunfire and rushed towards the trenches everywhere.
Trying to grab that biomass.
to make up for losses.
In the trench of Defense Zone 1029.
The Cadian Lightning Army stood firm in their fighting positions.
For thousands of years.
Because the warriors of Cadia often face the terrifying enemies emerging from the Eye of Terror, they are already familiar with warfare.
They learned to follow orders and fight without wavering in the face of any human foe.
Even if you lose your home, you have not lost the courage to continue fighting.
Today.
The wandering warriors who remained standing received brand new equipment, and almost all of them were equipped with carapace armor and helmets embedded with ceramic steel.
Weapons such as melta guns and heavy plasma guns make them more powerful.
these gifts.
The Cadian Lightning Army felt grateful and deeply honored to the savior, and decided to fight to the death in return.
This is true even if the enemy is a terrifying Tyranid alien.
Under the arrangement of the command center, they came to this defense area to defend.
Defend the Tyranids in the area.
However.
The battle has begun for a long time, except for the roar of artillery fire and the sacred music of the Savior.
The warriors never saw any enemies.
This made them a little uncomfortable.
After all, in the past, I was always at the forefront of fighting.
suddenly.
Commander Cadia's communicator received something and nodded: "Yes, follow your order!"
This scene.
The atmosphere in the war zone becomes tense instantly, which means that the battle is coming.
“Sir, have the alien bugs arrived?”
A scar-faced Cadian warrior couldn't help but ask.
"It's time for lunch..."
The commander of Cadia looked strange: "The headquarters ordered us to quickly replenish energy within ten minutes to cope with the next battle. The enemy will be about Arrive in twenty minutes!”
“Huh?”
The scar-faced Cadia warrior swallowed, a little confused: “Didn’t we just eat a few hours ago? ”
"According to the standards of the Savior's Army, what we are eating now is a wartime lunch."
Kadia watched several low-altitude aircraft landing in various places in the war zone, and quickly issued instructions: "The sentries continue to be on guard, others Hurry up and get the food!”
Hearing this.
The scar-faced Cadian warrior retracted his hand from his pocket.
It seems that the previously issued delicious savior standard CPR can be saved.
In a general state of war.
All Astra Militarum soldiers receive a certain amount of CPR, which is combat ration packs.
This includes a self-sealing ration or protein bar, as well as a small amount of nutritional compounds.
Also contains a fireless heating agent for heating food.
A little more luxurious.
There will also be canned food, salt, water purification tablets and a few medical supplies.
These CPR looks very good, but in fact it is very dangerous and unpalatable. It is either tasteless or terrible.
Some are not even as good as corpse starch.
Not suitable for long-term consumption at all.
There was once a colonel of the Astra Militarum who was captured by the orcs as a mutated lucky fart and fed maggot-infested carrion every day.
Later, he was lucky enough to come back alive.
Whenever he talked about this experience, the colonel would curse, saying that the carrion was worse than field rations.
You can know from this.
What do these rations look like to the big-headed soldiers?
The canned food rations are even worse.
It's okay if it's canned ant-cow, but it still tastes good if you process it.
In critical moments, it can also be thrown as a weapon to defend against enemies.
However in fact.
Many canned and protein foods contain some mysterious proteins.
Especially in the war zone with the aliens.
Normally.
Protein bars are supposed to be made from meats like Glocks put into a giant blender.
However, in order to reduce costs, many unscrupulous contractors often add some random unknown meat, and some simply throw in strange and alien corpses.
Such as orcs, barbarians, and some unknown poisonous creatures.
Then made into protein bars.
One processing plant even went too bold and added Chaos-contaminated corpses directly to the protein mixer.
After a large number of Astra Militarum soldiers ate the protein bars produced by it, they were corroded, causing serious accidents.
Several regiments were executed as a result.
The judge also came to the processing factory and tried them collectively from top to bottom.
But it’s actually no wonder those processing factories.
Because of the shortage of raw materials and the empire's tendency to overstock and default on payment, some supplies are subject to a strict tithe tax.
They can't supply that many protein bars as standard.
But if you don't deliver the goods on time, it will delay the military aircraft, be disloyal, and lead to a visit from the legal department.
So.
In order to reduce costs and achieve successful delivery,
Protein bar manufacturers have to take risks and add whatever protein they can find.
The empire has no choice but to turn a blind eye.
Wherever something goes wrong, it will be solved.
In this case.
Those high-ranking soldiers of the Astra Militarum were unlucky. The CPR they received was like opening a blind box.
I don’t know what I will eat.
Just be more careful.
The scar-faced Cadian warrior touched the Savior’s Standard CPR in his pocket again and cherished it.
That’s good stuff.
A standard Savior CPR.
Including breakfast, lunch and dinner rations, fresh meat, canned fruits, vitamin tablets, coffee powder, chewing gum, kettle, water purification tablets, treatment injections, fuel, etc.
Soldiers can eat delicious, nutritious and healthy food on the battlefield at any time.
After eating it, many soldiers’ eyes lit up, saying that it tasted better than the food at some victory celebrations.
The leading soldiers of the Astra Militarum could not help but sigh at the wealth of the Savior's territory, and at the same time they were even more envious of the troops under the Savior's command.
Originally they thought this was the limit.
But now.
The savior’s logistics troops actually delivered a hot lunch to them on the battlefield. The dishes included barbecue steak, bread, fruits and small glasses of juice.
It looks like it was just made!
Actually.
Those are pre-prepared dishes that can be simply processed and heated.
The soldiers of Cardia looked at the hot lunches handed to their hands and couldn't help but look at each other.
Is this a war? Even in the camp, there are no such conditions, right?
I can only say.
Now the logistics department is too busy, and there are tricks.
The planned retreat time of Bian Hua Xing is half a month.
so.
The logistics department responsible for Bian Hua Xing prepared food for a month.
Of course.
That is calculated according to the standards of the savior territory. According to the standards of the empire, it can last for about three months to half a year.
Not to mention.
There is also the existence of the Sons of Man Chapter on the Flower Star of the Other Side.
These Space Marines can transform into the galaxy's top chefs at any time, providing edible food for the army.
Theoretically.
As long as the ammunition is not exhausted, the army can withstand the pressure of the alien bugs.
Then the food will be endless.
The Sons of Man and the Savior Army can keep chasing the bugs until they eat them all.
"You still have seven minutes!"
Commander Cardia reminded the soldiers: "Quickly replenish energy to face the battle!"
At this time.
The scar-faced Cadian warrior is already showing off her beauty.
He quickly finished the food in the lunch box and wiped the gravy on the lunch box with the last bit of bread.
Then stuff it into your mouth.
“I have never been so full in my life!”
The scar-faced Cadian warrior patted his belly and said with emotion: “You said, we must always follow the savior. Fighting, how wonderful it would be..."
Such words resonated with the soldiers.
Everyone nodded.
With such good equipment and treatment, who wouldn’t want to follow the Savior all the time.
What a pity.
After this war is over, they may be integrated into the Imperial Astra Militarum.
The soldiers felt a little uncomfortable when they thought of this.
But there is nothing that can be done about it.
After a short lunch.
The Cadian warriors picked up their weapons again and continued to stand in their fighting positions.
According to the intelligence from the command center, the Tyranid aliens are about to arrive...
Gradually, the sound of artillery fire from other surrounding defense zones came.
Those places were already engaged with the enemy, and the nearest defense zone was only a hundred meters away from them.
However.
They were unmoved.
Because the mission of these soldiers is to guard their defense zones.
The rest is not their business.
After a while.
Commander Cardia received new information, and he roared and issued an order: "Everyone aims at the attack position on the left, and fire freely as soon as the enemy arrives!"
Hiss~
He just finished speaking.
The roar of the Tyranid swarm came.
Several Tyranid Warrior Insects led a dense swarm of Swift Bone Insects towards this defense area.
Boom, boom, boom——
The moment they appeared, they were bombarded by long-range troops.
There are not many differences in today's wars, just enough artillery fire!
The Savior Territory uses various defense zones within the defensive wall to cut off the battlefield, and fills the defense zones with various types of artillery at almost no cost.
It is uniformly deployed by the command center to accurately bomb the Tyranid swarms that enter the defense zone.
This round of bombing severely damaged the Tyranid warrior insects.
“Cadia stands strong!”
With the chants of the Cadia warriors, this Tyranid swarm ushered in the saturation form of melt and plasma rays shooting.
The smell of burnt chitin permeated the entire perimeter.
After who knows how many rounds of shooting, there was no longer a Tyranid alien that could stand.
The Cadian Blitz Army defense area here successfully resisted a wave of insect swarms.
“Sir, there’s a big guy!”
The scar-faced Cadian warrior was a scout, keenly aware of the danger, and shouted a warning.
Commander Cadia looked up.
In the breach in the protective wall not far away, he saw a thick poisonous mist and twisted sharp tentacles in the thick mist, followed by many poisonous insects.
That is a large Tyranid combat unit - the poisonous whipworm.
Its dozens of body-splitting tentacles are coated with poison, capable of tearing apart the armor of Space Marines and causing poisonous damage.
Such a terrifying unit cannot be reached by mortal troops.
Commander Cadia has obviously discovered the seriousness of the problem, not to mention the terrifying size and intimidation.
If it is allowed to rush into the defense zone, the poisonous mist alone can cause a lot of damage.
Under normal circumstances.
The warriors of Cadia need to spend more money to hold these guys back and wait for the support of high-level warriors.
Or suffer serious battle losses and die together with them.
Commander Qadia immediately reported to the command center in accordance with the requirements in the campaign manual.
Requesting support. The commander's voice was heavy:
"Report to the command center, our 1029th defense area encountered a large Tyranid unit and urgently need the support of the angels!"
Communication within the device.
The person in charge of the command center who communicated with him responded quickly: "Received... Defense Zone 1029, your support has arrived, please cooperate with the defense..."
? ? ?
Cadia Commander is a little confused. Support has arrived. They don’t need them to delay the enemy?
Actually.
Most of the high-risk Tyranid units inside the war zone have been equipped with positioning equipment by snipers and are under the monitoring of the command center.
Their routes and tracks have been measured.
Then.
The command center will arrange the appropriate Space Marine team to deal with it based on priority.
Under normal circumstances, fire support twice as high as that of the enemy is arranged to deal with high-risk targets.
This is the strategy of the command center, using terrain and artillery fire to cut the battlefield.
Then.
Arrange the attacking force according to the battlefield situation and gradually kill the important command creatures of the Tyranid swarm.
Those overflowing insect swarms will be dealt with by the soldiers in each defense zone.
Whoosh——
Cardia heard the roar of fighter planes before she hung up the communication.
He looked up.
A Thunderhawk gunship came speeding up.
Boom boom boom!
The Thunderhawk gunship's automatic cannon temporarily blocked the poison whipworm, and then the hatch opened halfway, and six dark green Sons of Man Terminators appeared.
One after another, they jumped from the air, their heavy ceramic boots crushing the ground.
Under the cover of heavy firepower from the mid-air, Sons of Man support position.
The Sons of Men Terminators were steadily closing in on the Whipworm.
These veterans who have been fighting against the Tyranids for a thousand years seem to have practiced it countless times.
Ignoring the poisonous mist, they used their power swords to skillfully block and cut the poisonous whipworm's split-body tentacles.
Disintegrate the enemy's arthropod weapons.
In the meantime, he did not forget to take out his bolt pistol and attack its weak points.
These Sons of Man Terminators launched a brutal and inhumane beating on the poisonous whipworms amid their anguished screams.
Implement saturation shooting and grenade bombing.
Soon.
The poisonous whipworm fell to the ground and lost its voice.
“Good stuff, chicken flavor!”
The Captain of the Son of Man Terminator rushed forward, cut off the most delicious parts, and then activated his jumping back to lead the team back to the Thunderhawk gunship.
He whizzed to the next defense area.
Before the Thunder Eagle gunship left, it did not forget to fire a few more meltcannons at the corpse of the poisonous whipworm.
The warriors of Cadia watched the angels leave with reverence.
This is the most clean and efficient angel they have ever seen in executing alien enemies.
After the Sons of Men Terminator left.
Attracted by the biomass, those poisonous insects were ready to pounce on the defense area.
However.
They can no longer threaten the warriors of Cadia.
Another round of focused fire shooting began.
After eliminating these poisonous insects, the Cadian warriors felt quite relieved.
"Grandma, this was a great fight!"
The scar-faced Cadian warrior cursed: "We were so frustrated before, so we should kill the aliens like this!"
After.
A few more rounds of Tyranid swarm attacks.
Fortunately, they did not encounter high-risk Tyranid alien units again.
After eliminating those insect swarms, War Zone 1029 fell into a stage of waiting for the enemy.
During this period.
Gentle medical nuns came one after another and took away the wounded for treatment.
“Hey, sir, if we keep waiting like this, it won’t be dinner time, right?”
The scar-faced Cadian warrior averted his eyes from the back of the medical nun.
He was already looking forward to what he would have for dinner.
……
Defense Zone No. 672.
Bang bang bang bang——
The roar of heavy firearms continued.
The Ogryns were shooting freely outside the trenches, sweeping away large swarms of insects.
Their hands almost never left the trigger.
Enjoy the noise when the bullets burst out.
“I’m a little tired from playing...”
Suddenly, an Ogryn man said.
In the past, his gun would be restricted from firing after a short period of use.
Sometimes the Ogryns fired too many bullets and were scolded by the little men.
But the big dark gold man’s gun has a lot of bullets, and there are dumb robot servants who change guns and bullets for them.
Enough ammunition tubes.
They can fight however they want.
Often a bug
can be shot by several Ogryns until the corpse is beaten into pulp.
Now.
The Ogryns seemed to be a little tired from over-firing due to too much ammunition.
"Yes, yes, that place in the middle, I am very smart, I know it!"
The smart man was receiving instructions from the command center. The other party used the simplest language and patiently explained it to him three times.
To this.
The smart man said proudly that he understood.
He hung up the communication, walked over and patted a few Ogryns who were still firing uncontrollably, and shouted loudly:
"Boys, listen to the smart guy, everyone is facing here, yes, this is it!"
The Ogryns followed the smart guy's instructions and pointed their guns at the center of the defense zone.
Just when they were getting impatient.
The ground suddenly shook.
Boom——
The ruins crumbled.
With splashing earth and rocks.
A big sand python suddenly rushed out and roared towards the sky.
However.
The sand python that led the team to attack froze halfway through its cry.
His little eyes widened.
Because, it saw countless gun muzzles pointing at itself.
The next moment.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The Ogryns, who had been holding back for a while, poured out fierce heavy shell fire.
He beat the sand boa until it fell to the ground and twitched.
“Ah!!!”
Several Ogryns rushed up holding heavy hammers wrapped with electric arcs.
Hit the sand python with a hammer.
After.
The wise man followed the method taught by the command center and took out a big bomb and stuffed it into the hole dug by the sand python.
Boom! ! !
In the violent explosion, a large number of bugs were shaken out of the ground and fell to pieces.
Then in the wailing sound, it was torn apart by heavy bomb fire.
“A worm cannot fool a wise man!”
The smart man fired the automatic cannon and roared proudly.
……
In a dilapidated alley.
Hiss——
The mutated warrior bugs led a large number of bug swarms and poured into the dark alleys aggressively.
suddenly.
Its eyes showed a hint of fear.
Next second.
The melta cannon's rays drowned it.
In this alley alone, more than five melt cannons are installed.
Accompanied by molten red light.
A large number of insects screamed and fled in the direction they came from at a faster speed, as if the real predators were in the alley.
In the defense zone within the defensive wall.
Similar things are happening, those Tyranid command creatures are either trapped or captured by Space Marines.
Hunt with precision.
The Tyranid swarm is being gradually strangled, and the number continues to decline...
——
The peripheral swarm command node.
The swarm tyrant fell into rage and panic.
It found that its insect swarms lost contact one after another after falling into the enemy's position.
It's like disappearing.
Those battlefields are like another devourer, mercilessly devouring the swarm of insects!
More trouble is.
Many scout bugs have been killed by enemy snipers, causing them to lose too much vision.
This Tyranid synapse command creature has devoured too many human planets and even galaxies, but rarely feels a little powerless.
The human army here is different from what it has encountered before!
Hiss——
Suddenly.
The swarm tyrant has settled down again.
Because it received information from the insect swarm and discovered the secret of why humans are so efficient, it only needs to destroy the human command node.
The swarm can regain its advantage!
More importantly.
The assault force arranged by myself has successfully penetrated into the enemy's rear area.
That command node will be destroyed soon! ——
Watchtower.
There are huge scratches all over this high tower, and there seem to be traces of beasts staying on the ground.
Zila——
With a slight impact and thick smoke, the huge iron claw scratched on the wall again.
The observation deck at the top of the tower.
Ron looked down at the situation on the battlefield and was quite satisfied.
With the cash capabilities of the Savior Territory, this battle was fought extremely beautifully, killing the most enemies with the smallest battle losses.
It’s just a little expensive.
Fortunately.
He can still afford it.
I just hope that there will be fewer wars like this, otherwise it will be really heartbreaking.
Although the situation is great, Ron still has some worries.
The Tyranid swarm was a little too quiet. He and Dante had been waiting for so long, but they didn't find any big ones.
This situation is abnormal.
He wondered if the Tyranid swarm was holding back some ultimate move.
Ron sent a communication to ask the command center to increase vigilance and detect abnormalities in the war zone.
For these bugs with extremely strong learning ability, you should never let down your guard at any time.
Otherwise, it will be easy to overturn.
Once the Tyranid swarm takes advantage, the next step will be an endless snowball.
It is difficult to suppress its momentum.
Many civilized planets and even galaxies fell into destruction in this way.
Boom!
Red smoke rose.
The watchtower suffered another impact and shook slightly.
Ron frowned, took a deep breath and angrily shouted: "Chiyan, please calm down, don't collapse this place!"
With the savior's angry scolding, under the watchtower The movement stopped immediately.
The creature seemed to lie back down carefully, not daring to make any more movements to avoid making its owner angry.
Dante cast his gaze towards the bottom of the tower.
He saw a terrifying giant molten iron beast with red flames...
