Chapter 165 Completely destroyed


Chapter 165: Ashes to Ashes

Although they were in an extremely disadvantageous situation, the greenskins were still trying to fight back, but their counterattacks were intermittent at best.

Some Space Marines didn't even bother to dodge and just kept shooting at their targets.

It took Soshyan a while to understand why the greenskins' counterattack was so weak.

After a while, Thor also came to the same conclusion.

"They don't have enough ammunition."

The soldiers also gradually realized this.

Soshyan felt their desire to rush over and kill the aliens - they wanted to look into the enemy's frightened eyes when killing them, and they wanted to splash the enemy's blood with their own hands.

Just like them, Soshyan also wants to lock up his bolter, then charge with his sword, teaching the consequences of aliens offending humans——

Theory may be beautiful, but in practice it may be Don’t allow emotions to interfere.

"Stay where you are."

He said on the public channel:

"Keep the firepower."

Soshiyan's voice was unambiguous, keeping all the soldiers where they were. land.

After continuing to eat bullets for a while, the greenskins did not fight back.

Instead, they began to rush towards the target point, braving the relentless firepower of the Astral Knights, and at the same time abandoning the field cannons - they all knew that those things were useless against the warriors wrapped in power armor.

Hundreds of greenskins were shot down as they crossed the open field, but there were still a significant number of survivors.

They arrived at the smoky bunker. The thick smoke swallowed everything, and even Soshyan's automatic senses could not penetrate the chemical-filled darkness.

Thor looked at him, waiting for him to issue an order.

The bodies of the aliens are scattered on the ground, some may still be alive, but they will know what comes next.

But Soshyan didn't have time to deal with them for the time being. Instead, he opened a communication link and connected to a frequency that had been prepared.

"Roglis, this is Soshyan, the enemy is getting into the noose."

He said almost with a smile:

"What good do you have The solution?”

“Of course, Chapter Leader”

Then, the technical sergeant's voice, distorted by the communicator, reached his ears.

"It's being implemented."

His voice was calm and obviously without any emotion - but Soshyan knew the other person well enough to know that he was not really emotionless.

Saul heard this conversation and turned his head to stare at the darkness within the smoke, where there should be a bunker.

A "safe" bunker.

At this time, a beam of light connected the sky and the surface.

Despite the impenetrable darkness, Soshyan could feel that the bunker was lifted off in a burst of explosive kinetic energy, and then disappeared in a cloud of fire.

Swarms of castle-class battle droids surrounded those greenskins who were lucky enough to survive, carrying out the slaughter with ruthless efficiency.

They died like livestock.

When the strong electromagnetic pulse and abnormal overpressure finally blew away the billowing smoke, there was nothing left there, only a towering steel forest.

Looking at the almost glassed ground and the big black cap that was only half burned on the ground, Soshyan nodded with satisfaction and then motioned to Ustad to pull up the flag.

“Now it’s time for them to finish it off.”

Boom————!

As the 4337th Infantry Regiment and the Super Heavy Tank Assault Battalion advanced, the artillery kept firing at the enemy, trying hard to suppress the enemy for longer.

The ground shook as the tanks advanced and shelled.

The speed of the Makado heavy tank is not slow, but now it is probably only walking faster than the average person.

The men of the 4337th regiment followed the tanks and tried to use the tanks as bunkers.

The Armored Assault Battalion of the Astral Knights did not receive much firepower at first, until they climbed over a small slope. Enemy firepower suddenly appeared. The air was filled with flying laser beams and metal fragments. Dry soil blocks were hit from the ground into the air by the incoming firepower. Shrapnel bounced off the armor of the tank. Scattered fragments looked like the following Rain fell on the soldiers.

Standing aboard the Immortal Vermin, Lucian fired a burst of fire from his handy compound bolter, not stopping until he realized the enemy was beyond the range of his weapon.

Then suddenly there was a beam of hot air from the distance, and then the shining red beam melted a piece of metal on the track skirt on the left side of the Undead Pest and knocked it away.

“Ahhh——!”

A soldier shivered and screamed, covering his face with his hands when a piece of molten metal hit his cheek. .

But no one can save him at this time.

"Kill that heavy weapons team for me, prepare secondary weapons, follow my orders, three, two..."

The tank shuddered as it turned ten degrees to the right, and then Lucian on top clung to the side armrests.

Then, a deep roar joined the roar of the engine, suddenly shaking the combat platform.

The heavy bolt cannon at the front of the vehicle started, and the twin five-barreled cannon also began to rotate. Then the rumble of the hydraulic engine turned into a sharp whistle as the gun barrels accelerated to the firing speed.

"One...fire!"

The sound of heavy explosive bombs firing was like thunder, forming a trembling wall of sound.

The sound was so loud that even the prepared Lucian's ears began to ring in pain.

The next second, a fist-sized explosive bomb flew out of the barrel, and then, under the action of its own propellant, created an effect like a fireworks show in front of the battle line.

At the same time, artillery shells as dense as hailstones screamed and flew towards the enemy. Lucian risked being shot in the head to take a look at what was going on——

Then he saw, The enemy's defense line was reduced to a pile of debris by the hail-like barrage, and everything, including the damn aliens, was blown to pieces by the explosions that penetrated the defense line.

Although I don’t know the fate of those gun crews who hid behind the defense line and fired at the Undead Vermin, but how can I put it, there should no longer be any annoying heavy weapons in that place to annoy a Macado. tank.

Then the armor picked up speed, and they drove down a small slope in front of the firing line without any intention of slowing down.

Then they approached the shelling area.

Then, there was the roar of the super-heavy bolt cannon again.

The enemy's firepower weakened at first, then increased.

The warhead clanged against the front armor of the Makado tank, and some debris flew into the open hatch due to the explosion of the shell, bringing a burst of complaints and dissatisfaction.

"Artillery, here are our own people, stop shooting, stop shooting!"

Then the explosions of artillery shells became fewer but closer - fire from the enemy.

Finally they reached the outer edge of the enemy's defense line, the source of the crossfire - a large group of bunkers.

It is hard to imagine that this is a fortification designed by the greenskins.

Firepower hit both sides of the undead pests, while the automatic cannons on both sides of the Malcador heavy tank pointed their barrels outward and fired back with equally fierce fire.

The battlefield was very chaotic, and Lucian's eyes were a little dazzled by the flying laser beams. He could only blink hard to remove the impact of the laser firing on him.

"Third row, fire back."

After arriving at the front line, the infantry finally came into use.

Yarek Zhengshi began to roar at the soldiers hiding behind the tanks. Everyone could only leave the relatively safe area and deploy a shooting formation amidst the hail of bullets.

Compared to the powerful firepower of the heavy armor, the laser rifles they held were nothing more than children's toys.

But even so, those were enough to overwhelm the enemy, keeping their heads down behind the trenches, while the side-deployed musket guns also did the trick.

Yarrick took out his pistol and looked back.

The first wave of assaulting Chimera personnel carriers had already entered the front line, but one Chimera tank was directly hit by fire and exploded. Its metal shell could not resist the internal explosion, and the turret flew away. The sky was covered, and the burning car body formed an inaccessible restricted area from which no one could escape.

Yarrick offered a brief condolence to those who died, but did not consider whether the shadow of death could easily hang over his head.

"Enemy attack! Prepare to counterattack!!"
