Chapter 1904 Furnace Technology (Part 2)

“Well, it is indeed worthy of its reputation.”

When Soshyan put down his gun, the breastplates of the two power armors were completely torn to pieces. , the shoulder armor is also riddled with holes, showing the terrible destructive power of special ammunition. You must know that this is basically the strongest part of the power armor.

It can be seen that this kind of ammunition is targeted to the composition and structure of the power armor. As for why the short man designed such a targeted weapon, there is no need to ask.

In this galaxy, either you are guarding me, or I am guarding you. In short, it is necessary to guard against others, which he can understand.

Even leaving aside the ammunition, just talking about the bedrock bolter itself, in terms of the rate of fire, stability, and very simple and compact overall structure, it can be regarded as an excellent bolter, and the quality can even reach Seiko. Bolter level.

“These.”

Soshyan put down his weapon and looked at Eldgrim.

“How much can we provide in the near future?”

“In the near future, approximately when?”

"Well, within three months."

"All of that in three months?"

"Mainly the bedrock bolter and the ammunition it uses."

"With the current transportation and warehousing situation, we can only provide a maximum of three thousand units in three months."

Soshiyang thought for a moment and nodded.

"I understand. Someone will continue to discuss the specific details with you."

After that, Soshyan watched Rogris operate the plasma blade and concussion hammer that are the characteristics of the short man. The latter is not counted in the empire. It is rare. It is used more by the Mechanicus. The former is rarer. Moreover, the plasma sword of the short man can be installed on the arm armor, so it is indeed relatively convenient to use.

These short-man weapons Soshiyan intends to distribute them equally to the various battle groups participating in the war. After all, this is a critical stage of the battle. There is no point in being stingy. The weapons and equipment of short-men are relatively not so sensitive. Whirlpools can occasionally be seen in many private armies.

After the deal was negotiated, Soshyan asked the short men to use their short-distance transmission technology to send messengers out of the Angstrom system to bring the latest news and instructions to Helbrecht. , and at the same time contact the peripheral troops that are basically in place.

During the period when Angstrom was surrounded, Corsaro Khan had been leading his fleet to entangle with the red pirate fleet several times his own in the vast area directly between the Galen System and the Bloody Skeleton System, and successfully Attracting the attention of the red pirates, they did not realize that the real threat was approaching.

The exploration fleets of the Scar of Victory and various Mechanicums have been assembled in the Senglad system. Along with them are the Gray Knights' strike fleets.

However, they have been waiting for news from Soshyan, because in order to cooperate inside and outside, there must be a coordination. This is also a key reason why Huron worked hard to seal Angstrom. As long as Soshyan is cut off Yang's chain of command, even if there are reinforcements, can only blindly hit the iron barrel defense prepared by the Red Pirates.

Unfortunately, Huron will never be considered a Hearthborn.

When Lysander on behalf of Soshyan was teleported to the Great Thorian Alliance's cruiser parked outside the void of the galaxy through short-distance teleportation technology, he immediately went to Sengrad to contact the Gray Knights. . The reason why he chose Lysander was because there was an episode when Soshyan talked to him about the short man - it turned out that Lysander had met the short man a long time ago.

Once, he led his company to assist the Empire in clearing out the Greenskin troops in the Obscure Star Territory. He accidentally discovered that a world originally marked as a mineral planet with few people living in it sent out a signal for help. So when he went over to take a look, he found a large group of Greenskins besieging someone. He Thinking they were trapped miners, he led his team to eliminate the greenskins. It turned out to be a group of dwarfs. At first, he thought they were miners in a high-gravity environment and didn't pay attention. Later, they called themselves Hearthborn and helped them repair it. Vehicles damaged in combat.

However, Lysander only regarded them as some kind of demi-human. After all, there were hundreds of kinds of demi-humans recorded in the empire, and he did not remember them one by one. He just led the team and left.

Afterwards, he realized that those miners were actually short men, but they all left before the war was over.

After contacting the peripheral troops, Lysander immediately began to secretly transfer the troops to the third quadrant of Angstrom in accordance with Soshyan's plan. At this time, Angstrom was already surrounded. More than two months have passed, and Huron has put almost all his troops on his blockade. Only Corkria still has some troops waiting for training and transportation. The entire Red Pirates are in Angstrom's The total strength has exceeded 100 million, and the number of Chaos Space Marines has reached 40,000, nearly half of which are Huron's core forces.

As for fleet strength, Huron has also invested heavily. The number of main battleships such as battleships, battlecruisers, large cruisers, and heavy cruisers has reached 22, and the number of other small and medium-sized battleships has exceeded 200. It is the entire Red Pirates. The largest concentration of fleets ever assembled at this stage of the expedition.

As for Soshyan, the number of fleets is not even half that of the Red Pirates, and the capital ships are also far behind.

However, he has two star forts, as well as the indestructible Angstrom, and the massive number of armed servitors, skitarii, and war machines that Angstrom worked all night to build.

In fact, Soshyan once changed his mind and put himself in Huron's position. He found that if it were him, the power in his hands had been accumulated to such an extent that he would definitely try to launch a desperate battle. , we must capture Angstrom even if we pay a huge price.

Although this may involve certain risks and the losses will be great, as long as Angstrom is captured, the entire strategic situation can be reversed, and these risks are completely acceptable.

But Huron did not do this. He was still waiting for Soshyan to take the initiative to attack, or to create a fighter that he believed to be an absolute advantage and a sure shot.

But how can there be absolute probability in war?

At least Soshyan never thinks so. War is a beast that can never be completely tamed. No one can prevent all accidents from happening. All we can do is try our best.

Perhaps this is the difference in personality between people.

Occam once commented on Huron in intelligence. He seemed to be tolerant but was actually narrow-minded, and he was hesitant and suspicious in his decision-making.

After the reinforcements were ready, Soshyan immediately began to deploy. First, he ordered most of Angstrom's fighters and combat aircraft to be packed into the Space Fortress Blessing Barrier. This expression of confusion is because so many aircraft are placed in a star fort, even taking off and landing has become a big problem. The Blessing Barrier does not have that many flight decks to recover combat aircraft, and these forces have been transferred. What to do about the defense of Angstrom itself?

These. Soshyan did not explain.

Later, he also commandeered all the transport ships in Angstrom, as well as some mysterious ships that were quickly manufactured in the Forge World's shipyards during the siege, ranging in size from small civilian ships.

Finally, before the action was launched, Soshyan once again led a small raiding fleet to attack a satellite of the Red Pirates. This made Huron think that Soshyan was going to repeat his same tactics, and for those who carried out a "feint attack" The main fleet did not respond, but ordered nearby fleets to strengthen their precautions.

However, Soshyan quickly evacuated less than half an hour after attacking the satellite, and merged with the main fleet, commanding the fleet to launch an attack. At the same time, a large number of tugboats dragged the Star Fortress Blessing Barrier away from Angstrom. , joined the battle, at this time Huron didn't even realize what happened for the first time.

The Angstrom breakthrough operation officially kicked off——
