Chapter 2045: Strategy for Kara (Part 2) Please vote for me!
Strilberg's majestic defensive orbital station was built in the M38 period. It was once the sentinel of the Empire against the raging malice and traitors from the depths of the Maelstrom, but now it has become an accomplice, and the former eagle emblem has been replaced. The symbols of heresy were erased and replaced, and the fixed artillery positions mounted on it poured ammunition towards the empire's fleet like a storm. With continuous flashes of light flashing through the void, flowers blooming from the explosion spread wildly, burning from time to time. Metal blocks broke and fell, and it seemed that every cubic meter of this space was filled with the smoke and dust of war.
The Unyielding Truth is more like a calm spear-wielding knight. It does not fire recklessly close to it, but fires from a long distance together with the surrounding capital ships.
As the Queen of Glory, the power of her volley of light spears is unparalleled. Even the super-large void shield array cannot resist such terrifying energy. The portable light spears can penetrate gold and crack stones and sweep across the deep space in front of them. The abyss stabbed firmly into the center of the orbital station, where the void shield generator was installed. The collision of the two energies instantly released a violent shock wave, followed by a strong explosion.
With the explosion and burning, a large amount of debris rolled down from the structure of the orbital station, some of which floated into the void, and some of which fell to the ground.
By this time, Zhu Fu found that their ideas were still a bit too taken for granted. Although Soshiyang was not able to deal with those fortress-like death worlds, the opponent with absolute naval superiority actually did not need to pay too much attention to those death worlds. Originally, I thought that the defense system built with raid groups, fortress worlds and minefields would not be perfect, but at least it would be able to cause enough trouble to the opponent. But in the face of a large number of aircraft fleets, those small ships with an average length of no more than 500 meters would have no effect at all. , will be easily discovered and dispersed, and heavy fighters like the Starhawk bombers can still cover most of the galaxy.
Although those three habitable worlds have galaxy-level defense weapons, they are in disrepair, and Huron does not have so many technical priests to maintain them, so it takes a long time to activate them, let alone aiming and locking. Targets require very precise intelligence to predict the opponent's position before shooting. In the face of a sudden attack, it is of no use at all.
In short, most of the preparation plans of the Red Pirates are only on paper, but fortunately Zhufu is a very adaptable commander. He judged that the empire would definitely land on Stelliberg and occupy the place. This is the core control of the Kara galaxy, so some troops are allowed to defend the world, while others quickly evacuate while the empire has not completely blocked the planet. At the same time, the defense systems of the other two planets are activated as quickly as possible to interfere with the imperial fleet.
"Prepare to land! Everyone speed up!"
Inside the Eternal Loyalty, Sergeant Bahram of the 10th Company conveyed orders to the recruits in the company. The two tactical teams The warriors waited patiently, chanting prayers and listening to the deafening sounds of the massive laser cannons, whose turrets fired from outside the ship at the enemy.
While most of the new recruits of the Chapter were still wearing carapace armor, the warriors of the Astral Knights had already adapted to the power armor on their bodies. The silver-gray paint was very conspicuous in the dim electric light. The warriors were ready, and the company was in Assembling inside the cabin, company emblems, chapter emblems, and the Imperial eagle on each breastplate all glowed bright yellow in the light.
Soon, the lift channel sent them to two assault boats. The airdrop cabins were basically used by other companies, so the tenth company could only make do with assault boats. Just as each tactical team was in After they were lined up in two rows in their respective boats and secured with restraint straps, there was a sudden tremor under their feet.
This means that the assault boat was launched.
During this process, although there was silence inside the boat, the armor outside was banging. This was the sound of the enemy's micro-shells exploding on the metal partitions, or the assault boat itself colliding with it. Some small wreckage arrived.
Fortunately, the Fist assault boat they were riding in could be said to be the strongest assault boat model in the empire. Unless it was directly hit by a naval gun, most weapons could not cause devastating damage to its thick frontal armor. Through the only observation equipment, Bahram saw the situation outside. The imperial fleet was "dismantling" the planet's defenses in an orderly manner. The fleet was divided into three parts. One part formed a half-moon shape and continued to fire at the orbital facilities. The Glory Queen-class The Indomitus Veritas sat at the center of the crescent, a vast cathedral wrapped in intricately crafted turrets. Most of her defensive lasers failed in her first salvo, but a few bright lasers remained from They stabbed the Imperial fleet from their armored fortresses.
Seeing the giant ship, Bahram mentally compared it to the Legion's Avesta.
Although this would have no consequences, he still believed that the Avesta should be stronger.
The other part has moved to low orbit and started bombing some facilities on the planet. There are also some counterattack firepower from the planet that is providing weak resistance.
The last part is driving and chasing down the small ships trying to transfer the planetary defenders.
As time passed, the trembling of the assault boat did not weaken, but became stronger and stronger. Bahram immediately informed everyone that they were entering the atmosphere.
A few minutes later, along with a "woo" sound, the tremors began to subside quickly.
When the restraint belt crackled back against the bulkhead, the huge boots began to make a heavy echo of trampling metal, and then the explosive bolts in front of the assault group detonated one by one, and light appeared.
However, hundreds of meters away, Bahram could still see a dazzling, manic totem of Khorne standing in the firelight of the city ahead, seemingly overlooking the entire battlefield, surrounded by mortals who had accepted the mutation. .
They poured out in groups from the cities that were being destroyed, holding swords, battle axes or barbed sticks in their hands. Some had scorpion-like tails, and some had faces. Becoming like beasts or insects, they are more monsters than people, and their every step and every movement exudes the light of violence.
They were led by a group of Chaos Space Marines who believed in Khorne.
They wore scarlet armor, full of spikes and sharp blades, and the helmets on their chests had fallen symbols cast in brass. There was also a mindless creature among them, which almost only cared about devouring hot steam. This thing should have once been a member of the Chaos Space Marines, but now it is indescribably deformed and laughably ugly - this is the Chaos Egg, the saddest ending of the Fallen, whose career has angered people for some reason. their master and ended in extreme depravity.
