Chapter 2909 Escape from the Python Mouth (Part 1)

Faced with the emergence of new Tyranid biological warships, Malakin knew that he could not forcefully accept them, so he immediately selected three biological warships and marked them with shooting runes. Then issue the command.

The two flagships fired fiercely at these incoming "missile ships". The lasers and shells hit the bone armor of the biological warships, but did not cause obvious damage, or just left a deep mark. Cracks, but failed to kill them.

Suddenly, a biological battleship closest to the Mother of Tears exploded. The powerful energy burst the carapace, causing plasma flames to roar in the universe, and dazzling light poured out from the observation window and imprinted on it. On Malakin's retina, its power is no less than the super giant plasma shells fired by those Nova Cannons.

In an instant, the hull of the Mother of Tears shook violently.

"The output of the void shield exceeds 110% and is about to be overloaded!"

"There is a crack in the front deck! Emergency repairs are being made!"

At this moment, Malakin's heart can be said to be so cold. Yes, he had been preparing for a beheading operation for a long time, but was defused so easily by the Hive Mothership. Although they were very close to the mothership and could already see its ugly appearance full of holes, this distance had become a natural chasm. .

The torpedo launched here, Malakin is sure, has no possibility of hitting the opponent, because there are enough small creatures to intercept the torpedo.

With his head lowered and panting, Malakin held the command podium with both hands. He suddenly raised his fist and smashed it hard. The loud noise made everyone in the bridge fell into silence.

"Brother Malakin, change course to 190."

Suddenly, a calm voice appeared on the bridge, and Malakin immediately raised his head.

"Brother Soshyan!"

"Change the course now."

Hearing this, Malakin did not hesitate and said loudly:

"Change course!"

Then the two battle barges that were heading straight for the mothership changed their direction and passed by the side closer to the planet. This sudden change made the insect nest unable to react for a while.

“Launch torpedoes, regardless of whether they hit or not, launch all but the most important torpedoes.”

“Understood, launch all torpedoes!”

Two ships fighting While intersecting with the Tyranid frigate group, the barge fired a string of torpedoes against dense biological fire, creating a series of destruction in the void.

After that, they sprinted along the track, passing through a group of large Tyranid biological ships that were struggling to rise. What finally appeared in front of them was another fleet with the Eternal Loyalty as the core. This fleet was responsible for clearing the orbit above the Snow Palace. , at this time many transport ships can also be seen rising from the ground to orbit.

“Our current strength cannot destroy this mothership, so let’s do this for now.”

Standing on the bridge of the Eternal Loyalty, Soshyan looked at Malakin’s virtual Image, with a smile.

"Brother Malaki, there is no need to worry. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Thanks to you this time, this strategy can be executed so perfectly. You are the number one contributor to this battle." "I have always been worried that it might be too late. ”

"It's not too late, it won't be too late when you arrive."

"Then the command will be left to you, Brother Soshyan."

When Malakin's image disappeared, Soshyan put His eyes turned to the huge tactical instrument. From a strategic point of view, there was nothing wrong with Malakin's arrangement, and it could even be called clever. The only problem was his last big gamble. Soshyan didn't like this behavior. After all, Tyron had Several Hive Motherships have not reached a conclusion yet, and rashly gambling with their lives is something they would do only at the end of their rope.

But it is obvious that we are not at the end of the road yet.

This is also a trend among Astartes today that he thinks is not very good. They rely too much on all-or-nothing "brave" behavior and treat the battlefield as a casino, but gamblers will eventually lose.

At this point Soshyan can finally retrieve the efforts and rewards of this operation.

The two Hive Tentacles were basically annihilated. Based on the changes in battle markings, it can be roughly inferred that nearly 30,000 Tyranid Void units were destroyed. Although most of them were micro-sized targets, there were also nearly a thousand large units among them. , this is undoubtedly a huge victory, and it is probably the best record that humans have ever achieved against Tyranid.

More importantly, cutting off the two tentacles can greatly slow down the Tyranids' advancement. Soshyan has realized that the Tyranid hive consciousness can "learn", which means that it will After learning this lesson, it no longer dares to separate tentacles easily. Although this makes it more difficult to handle, it also greatly slows down the speed of harvesting biomass.

Under the trade-off, Soshyan believes that time is more precious now. Only with enough time can he deploy strategies, gather more military power, and wait for possible reinforcements from the empire.

The price paid was that 26 battleships were sunk and 17 battleships were damaged. Most of them were legion ships. After all, other battle groups did not have many ships. Among them, the sunken capital ships were The Astral Knights' strike cruiser Pandora, the White Templar's Dictator-class heavy cruiser Spinel, and the just-sinked Prodigal Son, the legion lost three capital ships at once, accounting for nine percent of the entire legion's capital ships. one.

It hurt, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't blame Malakin for his poor command, because the other party had indeed tried his best.

Fortunately, there are still unfinished orders and ships to be handed over in each forging world, and they should be replenished soon.

“How is the progress of the ground evacuation?”

“Back to you, Sir, it is basically completed!”

Although Malakin’s actions just now are somewhat reckless, the effect is actually the same. Some of them just attracted the attention of the Hive Mind and made Soshyan's evacuation proceed more smoothly.

"The fleet's course is adjusted by 120, waiting for the last batch of transport ships to return."

Facing the fleet that was about to "seize food from the tiger's mouth", the Tyranid Hive Mind sent out a roaring ripple that spread in the subspace, and then The huge python began to tighten its body, and a large number of biological ships attacked towards the evacuation area. Countless biological torpedoes streaked through the void. Although many of them were intercepted by lasers, the resulting shock wave was enough to shake something like the Eternal Loyalty. Giant ship.

The very few biological torpedoes that were not intercepted bombarded human ships with their bone heads as thick as ship armor. Some biological torpedoes disintegrated when they hit the void force field of the ship, but some Some passed through the void shield and tore huge cracks in the hull of the ship the moment they exploded.

Soshiyan has been calmly observing the attack of the Tyranid fleet. He can feel the anger of the will. Even the huge mothership has moved, and more fins can be seen. The new biological battleship detached from the wide mouth of the huge bladder beneath the mothership.

You can also build ships while fighting. This efficiency is even more exaggerated than that of the Bonesinger. If the scale of this horrible life is larger, Soshiyang really can't imagine how humans can fight with it. They fight a war of attrition.

"All ships, attack with all firepower according to the area I marked."
