Chapter 3007 Fierce Battle of Westeros (V)
Not only the artillery, but also the tank troops deployed at the front are also doing their best to deal with the heavy Tyrannosaurus, the Mistress Beast and the Holy Whore Bug, as well as the crazy executioner, However, considering it is a defensive operation, most of the tanks are deployed on the second line, mainly used as mobile support force.
But no matter how much losses the insect swarm suffers, there will always be more to add, one after another, in an endless stream.
In the sky, spores rained down on the ground. Every time they landed, the number of swarms on the ground further expanded, and the ominous green spore cloud began to cover the end of the horizon heavily.
In this defensive operation, Hayes's division was "unlucky" to be assigned to the command order of the Flesh Tearers. There were many bad rumors about this battle group, and Hayes was not very fond of it. I believe this happens to angels, but these red angels smelling of blood do make people shudder. The key is that their tempers are not very good. Although the auxiliary army did not suffer much, the militia was miserable. Hundreds of officers have been executed for crimes such as poor combat performance and cowardly behavior. It is said that more than 5,000 unlucky men have been sent to carry out suicide missions for various reasons - carrying melta bombs to destroy large Tyranids approaching. .
As a result, everyone now trembles whenever they see those red giants, for fear that they will become the next unlucky guy.
"Plasma cannon, focus your firepower on those samurai bugs, don't worry about those evil women beasts, there are other weapons to deal with them! Heavy bomb and machine gun teams, give priority to shooting samurai bugs!"
< br>Hayes worked hard to deploy the forward firepower. During the repair period, the firepower of their companies was further strengthened. It seems that the higher-ups also knew that enemies like Tyranids needed heavy firepower to fight against, so each company added an additional 2 A heavy weapons team was issued with more melta and heavy anti-vehicle rocket launchers, especially melta guns. All 12 people in a team were equipped with Ryza-type individual melta guns. In addition, the company's personnel also received There are supplements, but they are all carefully selected local soldiers. Although they have not received much training in advanced weapons, it is still very easy to throw a grenade with a laser gun, which can liberate many personnel from the tactical team to the heavy weapons team.
Currently, a Hayes company has 12 Ryza-type individual melta guns, 4 heavy-duty multi-melta guns, 12 Ryza-type Thunder plasma guns, 4 plasma machine guns, and 2 heavy explosive bombs. , 2 multi-barreled laser cannons, 3 mortars, 2 grenade launchers, and 4 heavy anti-vehicle rocket launchers. Their firepower is close to the Empire's most elite Astra Militarum regiment.
But this does not give Hayes the slightest sense of security when facing these enemies.
Hundreds of monsters are killed every second, but the swarm of insects is almost endless. The crowded insects step on the corpses of their compatriots and continue to approach the defense line. Although they are only a company, they are the leader of this 600-meter-long defense line. In the core, because the number of auxiliary troops is insufficient, their left and right wings are all militiamen. If they collapse, those militia troops will collapse immediately, and a large hole will be opened in the defense line in an instant.
As for why some weapons are not distributed to the militiamen, it is not that Hayes is stingy, but that the situation in this world is too "backward". Many people have never even seen a laser gun, let alone touched it. After that, giving them technical weapons is basically a waste.
An hour ago, their left-wing position was broken through by an executioner. The militiamen had no means to deal with it. Fortunately, Hayes called for air support in time to annihilate it, but the militiamen were already He was shocked. Hayes had seen that their weapons were too weak before, so he distributed many grenades from his troops to them to give them some firepower. As a result, many untrained people either threw them too close or did not know how to throw them, and instead they were killed. Many people were injured, leaving Hayes very helpless.
Therefore, during the battle, Hayes had to keep an eye on the militia groups on the left and right positions. Fortunately, with the help of the servo skull, he could understand the opponent's situation at any time through the data pad.
The sound of the approaching enemy gradually became clear in the rumbling sound of artillery. After taking heavy casualties, Tyron attacked the defensive wall of the position with the force of an avalanche, with noisy roars and thunderous hooves. The sound shook the earth. The gun bugs and samurai bugs started shooting. Various acids and maggots had already made the concrete retaining wall pitted like moldy cheese. Some melee samurai bugs started to try to cross the retaining wall with knife bugs, but the dense firepower net Let them fall backward one after another and turn into twitching corpses. When the number of corpses reaches a certain level, it turns into a gentle slope.
"Hold it! Hold it!"
Hayes personally controlled a twin heavy machine gun on the machine gun tower and fired at the endless sea of insects. At this time, a large number of jumping The insects had already begun their fatal leap. Some were shot down, but others fell into the parapet. However, the soldiers had already gained experience. There were not only regular troops on the position, but also some militiamen specially selected by Hayes. They were all strong young men, armed with sharp steel spears and forks. As soon as the springtails came to the position, they immediately swarmed up, controlled them with long weapons and attacked the unprotected heads and sides of the springtails. , kill them quickly, this is also a way to maximize the use of the militia - rather than letting them tremble alone on the position, it is better to use them rationally.
At this time, a rain of maggots rained down on Hayes' position. He quickly bent down, and there were crisp impact sounds from the alloy baffle of the machine gun, followed by the "sizzling" sound of corrosion and the stabbing sound. The stench in his nose was so bad that even though he was wearing a gas mask, Hayes felt as if there was an odor entering his nose.
Just when he was about to stand up and continue shooting, he found that the bullets were out.
"Ammunition!"
"Uncle! Company Commander!"
Tip Du came to the machine gun tower with the ammunition box on his back, and then gasped and said:
"Something happened on the left It’s time for those losers to break through!”
“Huh?”
Hayes quickly picked up the data tablet beside him, but his heart dropped when he saw it. A mutant executioner broke through the wall. This executioner was labeled as a gravel type by the Adeptus Mechanicus and was a siege type. Executioner variant.
It is covered with armor that is thicker than a normal executioner. In addition to a pair of crushing claws that can crush concrete fortifications like kneading dough, it also wields a weapon that is thicker than a Space Marine. A large biological flail, this thing is composed of strong tendons and spiked hammers. Every time it swings, it will cause horrific damage. Behind it, the protective wall has been broken open to a length of nearly five meters. The gap has been opened, and the surrounding defense facilities have been destroyed. A large number of knife bugs and warrior bugs are pouring in, and the defense line is already in danger!
