Chapter 925 Broken Dam
The Catachans stumbled back from the ancient river channel that was constantly releasing floods, but this place was very narrow and it was difficult for everyone to evacuate at once.
Suddenly, Stryker noticed that there were many honeycomb-shaped caves on both sides of the ancient river, large enough to accommodate a person.
"Hide to the sides! Hide in the hole! Hide in the hole!"
Hearing Stryker's roar that could penetrate the eardrums, the soldiers retreated to the cave on the river bank with difficulty. .
Soon, the flood swept in, and the corpses rushed out of the waterway quickly formed a pile of corpses.
There were chaotic noises and desperate cries everywhere. It was obvious that the flood did not drown many Catachan soldiers, but it wiped out all the cultists.
It wasn't until ten minutes later that Stryker emerged from the hole where he was hiding.
After counting the number of people, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
Cultists, Chaos Space Marines, Daemons... He is not afraid of any enemy, and he has the courage to fight any beast in the universe.
But the tens of millions of liters of water pouring down from the narrow stone pipe...
"This water probably cost us twenty people..."
The hedgehog said, While grabbing Carcillo's military uniform, he pulled the other person out of the water.
"You must get exact casualty figures from the team commander, I don't want vague answers!"
Stryker shouted, and pressed the communication bead.
"Attention, commanders of all squads! Please regulate the order of the communication channel! Reorganize the team immediately!"
The communication channel immediately sounded the order of the entire team and the status of casualties.
"Sir, what should we do now? The enemy has been alerted. From a tactical level, it is possible."
"Forget about the tactical level. Once they understand that they cannot defeat them at the combat level, We, they will open the floodgates and release the water, so that the water will flow for several hours. At that time, they will set up defensive positions at every entrance and exit, and even lay mines."
Street. Ke cursed a few more times and touched his face with wet hands.
They were very close to victory, but they might just miss it.
"Forward! At the fastest speed!!"
Knowing that he must fight against time, Stryker immediately led the Catachan regiment into the ancient road with water as deep as the waist. The enemy was at this time Not yet aware that they were alive, or even thinking they had won, and therefore defenseless.
When the Catachans rushed out from the entrance of the ancient river channel, they ran into a dense but lazy enemy force head on.
They are very close to the enemy, and every step forward is won by morale and sharp blades.
It was already late at night, and the ancient river channel led directly to the east side of the dam. This dark corridor was constantly lit by laser fire, and the top and walls were full of laser ablation marks.
"Demoman! Demoman moves now!!"
Stryker shouted, blowing the enemy's chest with his pistol.
"Others provide cover, stay in formation!"
Heavy explosive shells were fired at the cultists in front, and a group of enemies were mopped down.
Soon, they encountered increasingly intensive firepower, and the new enemies that appeared were different from those they had encountered before.
They were a group of beasts with swollen bodies, wearing robes that were originally white but were now dyed red with blood. They came from outside this planet. Most of the cultists landed on Pai Shang like locusts, and Harm the people above.
Some bear the blasphemous marks of Khorne etched on their eyebrows and cheeks, carry heavy cleavers and lasguns, and also wear armor.
“Damn!”
More and more bullets were fired in the direction of Casillo. He hurriedly lay down and pulled out the laser rifle held in his arms.
Then he lay down, pulled out a full battery, inserted it into the slot of the gun and checked the sight on the gun.
Then, he lay down on the ground, and the enemy's figure gradually appeared in the scope.
He saw several enemies in the distance who were reloading the heavy felling machine guns, so
fired the first shot, but it missed.
But Casillo was not affected, adjusted the scope, and after exhaling, the second shot cleanly killed the enemy who was reloading.
After that, he calmly fired three more shots, knocking down the enemy who was in a daze.
Seeing this, the enemy's machine gun team immediately did not dare to show its head again.
At this moment, several blasters stumbled back, which also represented a signal.
"Retreat! All retreat!!!!" The Catachan regiment began to move toward the other side of the dam in an orderly manner. Their goal was to reach the mountain on the west side of the dam and lure the enemy there. On the dam.
Sure enough, groups of enemies began to pursue him.
"Sir!"
On one side of the Voss camp, Brunei, who was leading the militia group to pretend to attack the camp, suddenly heard the cry of the communications soldier.
"Channel 82, I just heard the code!"
The communications soldier looked towards Brunei while debugging the communication beads.
"What is it?"
"The code is a swimming ring!"
Brunei blinked, threw the cigarette in his mouth to the ground, stamped it out, and then shot at the militiamen who were shooting at the camp. Roared:
"End the work! Retreat! Speed! Retreat!!!"
Not long after the militia group left the battle,
A deafening explosion sounded, and the shock wave almost made the soldiers stand unsteady, and caused ripples on the pebbles of the river bed.
Subsequently, under the shocked eyes of everyone, a hole was blown open in the dam one kilometer away, and then a crack visible to the naked eye began to spread on the dam body.
Boom——
In a moment, in a terrible slow motion, with the sound of landslide, a wave of destruction poured down from the collapsed dam, continuously and continuously.
It first hit the protective wall of the Voss camp, smashing the wall into pieces, and then the stones below the dam were peeled off piece by piece.
The ground shook constantly, and water mist and dust turned the air into a thick, turbid mass.
The dam has completely collapsed, the rushing river will be liberated, and the resisters of the Death Star do not need to worry about drinking water for the time being.
Although it was only temporary——
Boom————
The enemy’s artillery fire suddenly struck from a distance, dyeing the brown night sky in the middle of the night with a layer of fiery red. of flash.
Stryker was sitting in the back seat of the car, his legs draped over the front seat.
The sound came from the east. The sound of the gunfire sounded like someone slapping a huge object in the hot, heavy air. The snap of sweat-soaked sheets.
Perhaps it was an angry enemy seeking meaningless revenge.
At this time, the dry-wet balance in the environment has been broken, and there is a cold wind stirring in the air. Stryker feels very comfortable, but it also brings a sense of stickiness.
The team is walking along a road leading to the Crest Fortress, the base camp of the Paiji Star resistance. Some sentry towers can be seen along the way.
These towers are set up every 100 meters along the main pass. They are erected on the inaccessible mountain walls. Each tower is about 10 meters high. The main body is composed of locally harvested wood and is supplemented by riveted beams and columns. Supports a sentry post made of bulletproof steel plates at the top of the tower.
“Sir!”
Seeing Brunei coming, Stryker put down his legs.
Suddenly, he realized that the air was filled with the smell of alcohol, and then noticed the wine bottle in the other person's hand.
“Give me a drink.”
Stryker pointed to the bottle.
“It needs something stronger.”
Brunei smiled and poured the wine into a broken cup.
"Sir."
Taking the wine, Stryker took a big sip. It was indeed very strong, making his chest feel like it was burning.
But on a cold night, there's nothing better than a stiff drink.
After taking two sips of wine, Stryker looked to the west. Behind the thin fog, he could still vaguely see the red firelight through the trees.
"Is the enemy's artillery fire so far away?"
Suddenly, he realized that he had thought wrong, that was not the enemy's artillery fire——
"Oops!"< br>
