Chapter 924 Fierce battle in the waterway
“Three, two, explode together!”
Boom——!
As early as when the demolition crews installed the explosives, the soldiers had already found bunkers and covered their ears. The violent shock wave caused by the explosion swept away stone fragments, broken metal and other rubble for more than fifty years. meters away.
The explosive melted the stone wall directly, causing granite fragments to fly down like a landslide.
This fierce heat wave did not dissipate for a while, leaving Stryker's night vision device with only amber images.
After the heat wave dissipated, the imaging in the instrument allowed Captain Catachan to see that the former water gate had been blown open, turning into a burning wound and a broken ruin.
Suddenly, he heard an angry scream coming from the steep slope.
Then sirens sounded.
There is no doubt that there are no defenders here as he thought, or there is a traitor in the Voss camp who revealed the location of this ancient river.
Although the enemy was on guard, Stryker had no intention of stopping.
"Go up! Go up!"
With his roar, the Catachans began to attack Minato.
The incineration team rushed along the slope and rushed into the shattered gate. The three of them carried flamethrowers and fired at the front, burning everything in front.
Behind them, Stryker directed commandos equipped with heavy logging guns to fire at the pedestrian passage on the side of the water gate, killing a large number of cultists who tried to retreat to the bunker at the beginning of the attack.
The third wave of offensive is the heavy weapons team. Their main weapon is a heavy bolter. If it is a normal person, it will definitely need to be set up immediately, but these strong men are like a small man dragging a heavy rifle. Fire.
Stryker, holding a bolt pistol in one hand and a Catachan Scimitar in the other, also rushed forward.
He shouted at the enemy, and their shadows were reflected in the shallow water by the firelight.
The hedgehog also jumped up and fumbled for the horn on his waist.
“Blow the trumpet, hedgehog.”
The hedgehog found the battle horn and blew into it hard.
Dududu————
All the Catachan team heard the sound of metal horns at the same time. Although there was damp darkness in front of them, they still began to sprint forward with strides. .
“Come on!! Kill all the heretics!”
“Pay attention to the left!”
The hedgehog suddenly shouted,
In the darkness, an automatic cannon suddenly opened fire, and the two Catachan warriors fought together into a bloody mist.
Feeling the shells flying past his head, Stryker hurriedly hid in a bunker.
"Enemy fire detected!"
Katachan shouted towards the communication bead.
"Their firepower covers the entire river, lie down!"
The Catachan soldiers quickly found shelter, the cold water flowing near their knees.
"This is really a massacre with heavy firepower, and the God of Death will probably be satisfied."
Madman Casillo whispered, while raising his laser sniper rifle to shoot.
"Stop reciting poetry and deal with him quickly, Casillo."
Stryker roared as the fierce sound of automatic cannons continued to be heard in front of them, as well as the rhythmic drumming and chanting.
A narrow, easy-to-defend stone tunnel like this is very suitable for placing heavy firepower points, thus forming a two-way slaughterhouse for both the enemy and ourselves.
“They still want to scare us away.”
Although the drumming and chanting gradually increased, the automatic cannon suddenly stopped firing.
“It misfired.”
Stryker looked into Carcillo's eyes burning with madness. "What do you think? Is this the enemy's way of luring us out?"
The sniper sniffed the air carefully and shook his head.
"Probably not. Do you smell the burnt smell? It's the smell of burning ceramics. I can guarantee that these offal have definitely overheated the barrel and the thugs cannot use the ordnance correctly."
Strike did not answer, but turned around, raised his knife, and rushed out of the bunker with a roar that was louder than the chants of the cultists.
"People of Catachan! Follow me! All follow me!"
Many strong men also joined the charge inspired by this cry,
Casiro and the hedgehog also joined. The charging team.
The strong men bent over and held knives, flew across the bunker and rushed directly into the tunnel.
Stryker crossed over a sandbag bunker built in a ditch, his bayonet flashed red, and he directly opened the bellies of two cultists who were about to make the jammed automatic cannon fire again.
Carcillo crouched in the water, eyes fixed on the scope of the laser sniper rifle. He carefully selected targets and shot four cultists.
Laser gun and bolter fire also poured into the Catachans, killing several warriors, but the charging Catachan was unstoppable and collided head-on with the cultists. Fighting in a sloped tunnel that can only accommodate a few people side by side.
Until this moment, those people realized why Catachan became the ace force of the empire.
They are undoubtedly the most deadly Astra Militarum in close combat.
The Catachan scimitar roared across the darkness, countless people were cut into pieces at close range, bayonets and sharp blades collided in sparks, and there was a flash of swords and shadows in the blood mist.
Stryker was currently engaged in a fierce hand-to-hand battle. He hacked to death at least twenty enemies and smashed five to death with his fists.
Around him, the frantic, crowded fight between soldiers resembled rush hour traffic, and the water level was rising as bodies continued to pile up in the ditch.
Shooted a pistol through the head of a cultist who was about to charge over, and then quickly swung the machete and slit the throat of an enemy.
"For the Emperor! For revenge!"
He shouted,
After walking another fifty steps into the tunnel, I looked down and found that the water in the ancient river channel was dyed red.
Ten meters further, he saw a young man who belonged to the empire but eventually betrayed the God-Emperor. He had an eight-pointed star carved on his forehead and his legs were cut off. He was now struggling to survive. Dragging his body and trying to climb to the river.
“Traitor!”
Stryker stepped forward and stepped on the opponent’s back.
The young man spit out another mouthful of blood.
"I"
He turned his head and looked at the condescending Stryker desperately.
".Just trying to survive."
He spit out another mouthful of blood and then died.
Stryker spat at the other party and turned to shout at the soldiers.
"Crush them! For the glory of the Emperor and Catachan!"
With deafening shouts, the Catachans rushed towards the enemy in a dense formation, instantly breaking through the enemy's three lines of defense.
The cultists collapsed, as if it was not Catachan that came in, but a group of demons, and they began to turn around and run away regardless.
In the dark battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke, the bloody hedgehog panted and leaned against a pillar. Next to him, Casillo kept firing lasers one after another into the darkness.
“What’s going on with this vibration?”
Sensing something, Stryker put his ear against a stone.
"The whole tunnel was shaking!"
The next moment, he realized what was happening. "They opened the floodgates and released the water! These damn things are going to wash us out."
