Chapter 3004 Fierce Battle of Westeros (2)
Due to the sudden incident, there was not much the local defenders could do. They could only destroy some unimportant buildings and use piles of rubble and large pieces of materials to The Adeptus Mechanicus urgently provided and produced quick-drying cement to mix and construct a small retaining wall with a height of three meters and a trapezoidal structure. There are roughly three such retaining walls in the entire defense line. There are bunkers and machine gun towers with a height of five meters, and are placed inside. All the automatic turrets they could find were about 17 kilometers at the widest point, and the depth of the position was more than 15 kilometers. There were more than 600,000 militiamen and 150,000 auxiliary troops distributed among them. Although it was relatively crowded, it was also considering that Tyronn's focus was on close combat. According to the Lord's fighting method, there are still 100,000 militiamen in the rear as reserves and logistics personnel.
But is this enough?
“Company Commander, look!”
Hearing the voice of the adjutant beside him, Texhar, who was not wearing a helmet, raised his telescope.
On the already scorched earth, some vague silhouettes began to appear. At the same time, a sound suddenly came towards them from the sky. It was the clicking sound of alien wings, accompanied by a hissing roar.
The next moment, the originally peaceful land was instantly filled with countless ugly creatures, and a crazy army of gargoyles appeared in the sky like a flock of birds.
"Order the Basilisk anti-aircraft vehicle to suppress the enemy's air forces."
"Yes!"
Just as the gargoyles lowered their altitude, they were about to use their weapons to shoot at the ground to hide. While the men were in the fortifications and trenches, rocket after rocket was fired into the sky.
Along with the blooming death fireworks, countless broken burning bodies screamed and fell from the sky.
The militiamen were stunned by this scene, but soon the officers roared and kicked their butts one by one.
“Get ready to fight! Stay alert!”
In a distant place, a wave of knife bugs and gun bugs swept in like a tsunami, but when they stepped into the minefield, they suddenly The resulting roar and explosion sent countless pieces of soil and carapace into the sky.
Landmines are naturally an indispensable weapon against the Tyranids. In fact, due to the hasty construction of the defense line, they used almost all the mines in their inventory, including infantry mines, petal mines and anti-armor melta mines. Got out.
But Tyranids are the most fearless enemy of death. They waded through the minefields and marched towards the city full of flesh and blood.
Soon, the flames of heavy weapons emitted incandescent light among the hastily constructed fortifications. Laser cannons, grenade launchers and automatic cannons formed the first interception line, followed by mortars. .
Small creatures perished like ice and snow under the interception firepower of humans, so they soon gave up their positions to the living tanks in the insect swarm. The evil woman beast and a new type of war beast appeared. Lun was at the front of the team. Some of these giant beasts still had traces of damage from melta mines. They moved forward under the fire of small weapons, and then used their huge heads or forelimbs to push down the sharp stakes standing on the ground and crush them. into pieces.
"A new Tyranid unit appears, immediately release detection robots."
Realizing that there were no recorded Tyranid units appearing, Texhar immediately sent a message to the Adeptus Mechanicus support group at the rear. command, two modified Greedy Eagle fighter jets soon took off and began to approach to take pictures of the characteristics and behavior patterns of this new type of large Tyran unit. This giant beast is one size larger than the Evil Woman. It is covered in extremely thick chitin armor, with a towering chimney behind it. It is structurally supported by two strong hind legs and a pair of sharp forelimbs like the Evil Woman. body, but it does not have a bloated reproductive sac. Instead, it has a huge biological cannon. This biological cannon, which is comparable to the main gun of a human heavy tank, is connected to the monster's body and is located on the right side of the head. It also has Dense clusters of stinging holes grow between thick chitinous armor.
After determining the appearance characteristics of the creature, the Adeptus Mechanicus quickly identified and classified it, named it Tyrannosaurus by the sage of xenobiology, and quickly uploaded it to all combat troops.
"The Greedy Eagle anti-armor brigade gives priority to attacking the enemy's large units."
After receiving the order, a Greedy Eagle fighter vehicle took off into the sky, and each of these fighter soldiers was equipped with Four large melta-piercing missiles.
After quickly entering the battlefield launch position at a height of fifty meters above the ground, he fired out missiles according to the evil women beasts and violent beasts. In a series of crimson explosions, the Tyranids were alive. The tank let out a deafening wail, and at the same time, the hard back armor was shattered by the bombardment of melta missiles. The flesh and blood protected under it was evaporated in large quantities, and even the internal organs were exposed.
However, for a front line that is more than ten kilometers long, a large group of fighter soldiers is obviously of limited effect. Just when the Greedy Eagle soldiers returned to replenish their ammunition, the Tyran insect sea had already advanced several kilometers deep.
Although the gargoyles in the sky were blown to bits by air blast rockets at this time, their number was large enough and could not be completely eliminated. During the pauses of the air blast rockets, they swooped down and held the flesh in their hands. The gun fires out a hail of deadly bullets, mixed with even more deadly sky monsters. They drop clusters of spore mines from their abdomens, which explode the moment they hit the ground, spraying out strong acid. As long as a militiaman without any protective gear touches a little, they will be It will immediately burn through their coat and skin, and penetrate deep into their bones. Even the deafening scream from the sky demon is enough to make their hearts burst with fear.
For a while, ghosts and wolves howled on the battlefield. The auxiliary army had experience and knew how to deal with flesh-boring beetles, but the militiamen had never seen this thing. The morale of some troops collapsed almost instantly, and some soldiers jumped from the trenches. Come out and run backwards.
Texhar noticed this situation, frowned, and only said one sentence.
“Where is the Supervisory Team?”
Soon, machine gunfire rang out, and the soldiers who had left the trenches and bunkers trembled and fell to the ground. At the same time, behind the defense line, the auxiliary army officers with golden bags wrapped around their arms and helmets picked up their horns and shouted:
" The commander has given the order, those who retreat will die!"
In this case, the militiamen could only turn around and run back into the distance, accepting the punches and kicks from the angry officers. Even executions - scattered gunshots continued for several minutes before stopping, and thousands of corpses were hung directly above the position to scare others.
Actually, Tekshar also knew that these irregular troops were useless, but he really had no choice.
The only ones he can really rely on are the Pashti Ban and Vashti. These are real soldiers, elite troops that even other battle groups are extremely surprised by. Texhar is what the commander of the army can build. I feel proud to have such a team.
But he only has 12 divisions of such troops.
"Let the Vashti hold the center. They will become a breakwater that weakens the power of the tide. There are not many Tyranids in the air. After the sky is cleared, the Storm Claw Squadron and the Thunderhawk will rain death on the swarm from the sky. Rain.”
