Chapter 273 Reconnaissance (Part 2)
“Put your head down!”
Ustad and the pilot next to him lowered their bodies, but they still inevitably got hit by a few shots. A bullet passed by the driver's eyepiece, and he immediately cursed.
But fortunately none of them were injured.
The speed of the speed attack boat was extremely fast, and the two sides soon came into contact. The cultists were even busy adjusting their shooting range.
In the blink of an eye, the speedboat passed between the convoys, just like the duel between knights in the wild world.
During this process, Ustad suddenly stretched out his arm, grabbed the ax that was flying towards his cockpit, and then threw it out with his backhand, knocking a giggling heretic off the motorcycle. Cut it down until the head falls to the ground, and the opponent's big tongue is still hanging out.
At the same time, the other two speed attack boats also cut in from the side. While destroying a large number of vehicles, they quickly merged with the lead vehicle.
"Attack!"
After regrouping, in front of them was the Heretic's heavy vehicle, two heavily armored half-track trucks sandwiched between a light armored truck filled with cultists.
The grenade launcher of the speed attack craft on the right side of Ustad fired twice. The first grenade made a big hole in the ground, and the second hit the half-track truck, blowing off its driver and front wheel. .
The remaining part was tripped by the wreckage of the front of the car and turned into a rolling fireball. Then the bomb knocked the screaming cultists off the armrest of the transport truck. Become a broken limb.
“Withdraw!”
After the brief command, all the riders pressed the brakes at the same time, and the speed attack boat made a sharp turn in a posture that did not comply with the laws of mechanics. in the direction they dispersed before.
The reconnaissance team opened fire again while accelerating, scattering the convoy of cultists rushing to the front and killing hundreds of heretics.
In the blink of an eye, Ustad and his team passed through the gap in the enemy's formation again.
"This should be enough to anger them." Galion said on the communicator.
"Lead to the minefield."
They moved towards the distant area they had just left. The cultists were yelling from behind and shooting randomly in their direction.
Ustad stood up, took out the bolter hanging on his thigh, twisted his waist and fired fiercely from behind, emptying a magazine.
The hit cultists didn't even scream and turned into a mass of blood mist. The motorcycles they were driving immediately fell down and slid on the ground for a long distance before stopping. Some even tripped over those behind them. motorcycle.
The forest is getting closer.
"Advance in single file!"
The speed boats moved close together and moved along a narrow route, while the cultists still moved in a single file, their distance increasing with the scouts Decreased by slowing down queues.
The next second, the ground shook as the cultists broke into the minefield.
The Ustad team relied on the anti-gravity of the speed attack boat to swing left and right through a safe path in the minefield, but the cultists were not so lucky. The smarter ones tried to follow the scouts' route, But most of them turned into a pile of corpses.
But at the edge of the forest, the reconnaissance team turned back and pulled the trigger of the heavy bolter, destroying several motorcycles that passed through the minefield one by one.
"Hoo ho!! What a great fight! A refreshing hunt!"
The driver laughed excitedly, shouting and shouting, and Ustad's face also showed A big smile: that was his plan, and his plan worked.
The road they passed was covered with dead heretics and smoking motorcycles. A few survivors were retreating at full speed, but as the Astartes continued to fire, one by one from their seats fell down. Ustad first ceased fire, then took out his auspicious device and scanned the surrounding area for potential threats.
Boom!
Suddenly, a laser shot hit Ustad's car, almost wiping him out in his seat, and he immediately yelled.
"Enemy attack! Escape! Escape immediately!"
The reconnaissance team quickly left the edge of the forest, and the lasers followed them all the way.
But then Ustad discovered that as soon as they moved away from a certain distance, these heavy firepower disappeared and seemed to appear mainly near the forest.
So, there is only one explanation.
"There is a fixed firepower point inside."
He got out of the car, formed a small team with two other weapons hands, and carefully reached the edge of the forest with the help of the night.
This time they were not discovered. After passing through a bush, they found a target.
A large-scale fortress is surrounded by a thick gray iron-colored protective wall nearly ten meters high. There are also numerous turrets and towering lookout posts inside. On the five-meter-high metal gate is the logo of the Imperial Ministry of Justice.
But now the sacred symbol has been stained with blood. The cultists used blood to draw blasphemous symbols on it. At the same time, they also nailed more than a dozen bloody corpses. Some of them can still be seen on their bodies. The armor of the law enforcement officers was disemboweled and dismembered.
Through night vision equipment, Ustad clearly saw figures walking on the fortress walls. High-power searchlights illuminated the surroundings. The laser turrets were also rotating. It was obvious that they had been activated. The defense system of the fortress.
So Ustad turned on the communicator.
"Report, we have discovered the Ministry of Justice Fortress, it has been occupied by the enemy, and the defense system has been activated."
Soon, a response mixed with a lot of white noise came from the communicator.
"Received...standby...I...immediately..."
"Repeat! We will arrive soon!"
rush out of the streets full of demons Finally, the team led by Soshyan arrived at the edge of the city, and they were heading towards the Ministry of Justice fortress outside the wilderness.
In order not to "interfer" with the missionary work of the state religion to the greatest extent, the empire's law enforcement agencies can only be established on the outskirts of the city. Perhaps it had been attacked before the incident broke out - Soshiyan speculated of.
"There are enemies."
Just when Soshyan was about to close the communication, Farzad suddenly pulled out his bolt pistol and aimed at the tall weeds at the edge of the woods.
At the same time as he pulled the trigger, a figure covered in tattoos emerged from the grass, shouting strangely, "Go to all the flatterers of the false emperor——"
His declaration Before he could finish speaking, the bullet fired by Farzad hit the cultist between the eyes, blasting his head into a bright red mist of blood.
Before the cultist's headless body fell to the ground, Farzad had holstered his pistol and drew his power axe.
"For the Emperor!"
He just shouted, and then rushed towards the other tattooed cultists who were emerging from their hiding places.
