Chapter 1625 Flame Crossbow Legion
After watching the actual demonstration, Soshiyan was most impressed by the semi-mechanical assassins such as Reza Rust Seekers compared to other Skitarii because they have extremely amazing speed. And agility, relying on ball joints to complete all kinds of incredible actions, even much faster than the Space Marines, their flexibility and weirdness are comparable to the Eldar. They must have extremely terrifying efficiency in pursuit and assassination.
The only problem is that their plasma core may overheat and melt under high load, which also prevents Ryza's Rust Seekers from conducting high-intensity operations for a long time.
In addition to infantry, these Skitarii also include Wild Ass Dune Crawlers equipped with heavy plasma cannons, Steel Walker gunners equipped with new plasma machine guns, four-legged robot beasts and the use of pyro crossbows and thermal weapons. The Hades mount of the Molten Lance, and the Castellan battle droid equipped with a mysterious plasma weapon.
All Ryza Skitarii wear ocher armor and robes, the same color as the rusty sand dunes that litter the planet, and the crimson lining of their robes commemorates the blood spilled over thousands of years.
Soshyan noticed that this skitarii had a common feature, which was the use of a large number of newly developed weapons and equipment.
"This legion is called the Flame Crossbow Legion. They have just been formed recently. They will join your expedition."
As soon as Ultramok said this, Soshyan immediately guessed The real role of this legion is to test the actual effects of new equipment on the battlefield. It is an experimental skitarii legion.
This kind of army is a double-edged sword, because the equipment is newly developed, there should be a lot of glitches and problems, but once those new equipment come into play, they will definitely give any enemy a surprise.
As the saying goes, it is better to have it than not to have it.
"That's great."
Glancing at the neatly lined up skitarii, Soshyan asked:
"What is the strength of this regiment?"
" The Yannu Legion has 6 macro branches, 24 brigades, 72 squadrons and an independent combat robot brigade. Usually a squadron contains 12 Ranger squads and 1 Alpha Ranger squad, 12 Vanguard squads and 1 1 Alpha Vanguard squad, 5 Rustseeker squads and 1 Alpha Embroidery Seeker squad, 4 Infiltrator squads and 1 Alpha Infiltrator squad, 2 Hades Cavalry squads, 1 Steel Walker squad, 1 Wild Donkey Dune Crawler Team, 4 Heavy Fighter Servant Teams, 1 Electric Monk Team, 1 Data Team, 1 Detection Team, 1 Communications Team, 1 Actuarial Team, 3 Tactical Analysis Team, 3 Priest Team, 5 repair squads, 5 transport squads. In addition, each brigade will have an additional Dragon Wing squadron, an Archaeopteryx squadron, an anti-armor squadron and a siege squadron."
This is roughly calculated. , the strength of the Flame Cross Army has exceeded 100,000. Although it is not many, it can be said to be powerful. After all, their firepower is dozens of times that of the Astra Militarum of the same size. That is a plasma weapon in each hand. The average Chaos warband wouldn't even dare to look at it.
The firepower advantage is always greater than the manpower advantage.
After leaving the Skitarii, as Reza's quasi-ally, Soshyan also got a glimpse of the mysterious Star Flash family.
This family can be considered famous, but it was completely unknown during the Great Crusade, because it was hidden by Reza for hundreds of years until the Great Rebellion broke out and the rebels almost captured Reza. They were released by the great sage at that time and reversed the situation in one fell swoop.
But after actually seeing it with his own eyes, he found that the Star Flash family was not large in size. It seemed that there were only more than a hundred aircraft. This number was small compared to Reza's own strength that almost challenged Mars. Very abnormal.
But this kind of doubt can be well explained after he carefully looked at the composition of the Star Flash family’s knight armor. It turns out that the Star Flash family’s knight armors are mainly the most advanced and most advanced. The rare and most expensive knight armor models, such as the Furious River, Jealousy, Death Goddess and other most advanced and rare models, there are also some models that Soshyan has never even heard of - such as the troll type, as the largest One of the models of knight mecha, this thing is as rare as the Hades Terminator in the Space Marine armory.
These knight armors are all rare and rare high-quality goods. Coupled with Riza's own technological improvements, these armors are even more powerful. After all, some knight armors can be found in other families, even those large families. In other words, there are less than ten of them and they are kept as treasures. Losing one of them may make you feel distressed to death. On the Star Flash side, all the rare armors are fully equipped and used as basic troops. This also explains why the Star Flash family is relatively small, because it is completely piled up with massive resources, making the Star Flash family They can easily deal with knight families that are twice as many as them, and they can even handle three or four times as many families without falling behind.
However, Ultramok did not intend to hand over Reza's ace in the box to Soshiyan. He just told him that if the war was very urgent, then he could ask Reza for help. , then Reza will send the Star Flash family for support.
But Soshyan knows very well that what is considered urgent depends on what Reza thinks.
But at least I drew a cake for myself.
Despite this, Soshyan also made a request. It doesn't matter if there is no knight family, but there must be the Storm Blade, a specialty of Reza.
This powerful "Titan Killer" uses the same chassis as the Shadow Sword and is best at dealing with enemy heavily armored targets. Its equipped plasma bombardment cannon can attack most known Titans and heavy tanks. A serious threat, but due to its lack of long-range sighting device, its range is shorter than that of the Shadow Sword, but this does not affect its powerful power.
Otemoc also bargained for Soshyan's request, and finally the two reached an agreement after half an hour of negotiation.
After negotiating the first batch of supplies, Ultramok suddenly and mysteriously wanted to take Soshyan to meet someone.
Afterwards, he led Soshiyang to the door of a workshop located underground in Endeavor City, and then spoke a name into the communicator at the door.
"Brother Yosip Suarez, a distinguished guest is here."
Soon, the workshop gate slowly opened, and a bright and clean workshop appeared in Soshyan's sight.
The workshop area is not large, but it is well-equipped and arranged very neatly. There is no sense of messiness common in the Mechanicus. Even the floors and walls are wiped spotless. Many servitors are performing repetitive mechanical tasks inside. Work.
When Soshyan walked in, a tall figure walked out from behind the operating machine tool.
He is wearing red power armor with a black and white Mechanicum logo on his belt. Behind him is a mechanical backpack common to technical sergeants. Many observation equipment have been modified on his helmet, and his shoulder armor and knee pads It was black, with a white iron palm imprinted on it.
This turned out to be a warrior with Iron Hands!
