229. Chapter 229, the first battle of the new blood of Phoenix


Chapter 229, the first battle of the new Phoenix

The so-called C7 area is not the urban area defined by the Polar Industrial City itself, but the Alliance Staff Department, when formulating the combat plan, based on the map of the Polar Industrial City obtained by the nuns in the early stage and based on its own combat habits. part of each combat area.

When it comes to the industrial city itself, this should be where the raw material storage is located somewhere in the polar industry.

At the same time, this C7 area is also a place that the sisters of Holy Mercy Lily focused on during the preliminary investigation.

Judging from the intelligence obtained earlier, there may be a secret underground space below this area.

The nuns are basically convinced that this is the headquarters of the original Angry Owl sect.

This group of cultists played a trick of hiding under the light and built their headquarters underground in the storage center of Polar Industries.

Obviously, their penetration into the polar industry is quite good. After hiding it for so long, not even Pierre, the group president, knew about this dimension.

The nuns were able to capture this information only by digging it out from the mouths of senior members of the Original Angry Owl Sect who had been captured many times in the periphery before.

Even so, there are many doubtful areas, and it may not be completely confirmed that it is the C7 area.

However, in the current raid on the Polar Industrial City, the resistance in Area C7 is particularly resolute.

This determination has not changed since Pierre spoke as the group president.

Then this is weird.

After gradually clearing up the resistance in other areas, the thirty battle nuns under Garrett's team went to briefly investigate the four areas that they had previously suspected to be the underground headquarters of the original Angry Owl Sect, but found nothing special.

There are indeed traces of cultists' activities there, and many were even caught alive.

However, in terms of scale, it is definitely not comparable to the 'headquarters'. I am afraid it is just a few areas of the old suspicion formation, plus some contact points.

To be honest, their hiding ability is so strong that in almost a year of investigation, the Battle Sisters could only confirm five suspected areas and were not sure that any one of them was real.

However...what's the use of hiding well?

With all the methods used by the original Raging Owl sect to hide themselves, they probably never imagined that one day they would encounter a situation where the table would be overturned.

Who has the time to check which of your five possible areas is true and which is false? I broke one, but I was afraid of alerting the enemy and causing you to move.

Directly capture the entire Polar Industrial City, and capture it directly without anyone being able to react. Block the way out of the city to transfer the base area, and then the regular army attacks five areas at the same time.

Caught off guard, unable to run away, and unable to really be thrown away in one fell swoop, the cultists, who had always been very secretive before, finally couldn't hide at all.

Area C7, as the headquarters, has been exposed.

They even broke the rules. Some cultists with special abilities wore blue robes openly and used some simple but effective storm magic to block the attack of the alliance soldiers.

If it weren't for these blue robes, the 31st Airborne Division wouldn't have been able to do anything here. They even left more than two hundred corpses behind, which made Lieutenant Colonel Derek so angry that he even tried to take over the place by himself.

Of course, he was dissuaded by Thaddeus in the name of commander-in-chief.

It is not impossible for the 31st Airborne Division to handle it. However, even with the assistance of the Air Force, soldiers still have to go in and explore the complex indoor environment.

Facing cultists with sorcery abilities, there is no need to waste the lives of soldiers.

Now, there is a more professional team in Polar Industrial City to deal with this situation.

At this moment, there are four teams gathered at the blockade of Area C7.

There is only one team belonging to the alliance military: the special operations elite of the 10th Brigade.

This time, more than 500 people came.

Accounting for almost half of the entire 10th Brigade.

The remaining half were organized into the expeditionary force, and they are probably all at Black Arrow Star by now.

The remaining three branches are not part of the alliance military in a strict sense.

Not to mention the Battle Sisters, they are not even considered members of the Alliance.

Twelve of the Phoenix Space Marines came.

In addition to the four century-old veterans who have experienced the Atonement Crusade, there are eight more, all of whom are new blood of the Chapter.

Currently, there are actually more than thirty new blood members of the Phoenix. But these new bloods were discovered and cultivated by the governor one after another. The later batches are not yet 'mature', and the superhuman organs in their bodies have not yet fully grown.

Even among the first three batches, there were a total of twelve people, half a year had passed since they were implanted with gene seeds, but there were still only eight who had completed the growth of all superhuman organs.

Especially the 'black carapace', which is usually the last one to grow out of the nineteen superhuman organs. The black carapace generates nerve bundles inward to connect with the brain and many different organs of the body; while outward, it forms many insertion points on the body surface that can be connected to the powered armor.

This is why the Space Marines' power armor is called their second skin. In a sense, power armor really grows up with Space Marines.

They control the power armor just like they control part of their own limbs. Without the assistance of the black carapace, the Space Marine's power armor is almost completely useless.

Neither other mortals nor elite troops such as the Battle Sisters can use real Space Marine power armor and can only use adapted force feedback power armor.

These eight have grown black carapace, marking the mature new blood. Now they can wear the externally painted power armor that the Governor bought last time, and fight side by side with their predecessors.

Martins took them all with him on this mission.

He must admit that the new blood of the battle group trained by the Governor in his miraculous way that even makes people dare not delve into it is very high in terms of pure technical and tactical level, even surpassing that of previous battle groups. The level of recruits trained during the heyday. (T1 level training)

However, no matter how mature the technical and tactical levels are, the experience of war, the instinct of war, and the mentality honed in countless battles cannot be achieved by any simple training.

Only if you have personally experienced blood and fire.

Then come and experience the battle.

As for the fourth team, it belongs to a new organization of the alliance - the Heretic Demon Hunters.

A mysterious team of fifty people.

Currently, the total number of personnel in the entire action team is approximately 600.

Chapter Master Martins Thalass is the commander-in-chief of special operations and is responsible for the mission to ultimately annihilate the original Order of the Wrathful Owls.

Sister Gerrit, the highest counselor.

The other teams are all under the command of these two.

If necessary, Martins could contact the campaign commander Brigadier General Thaddeus at any time. The latter will do its best to meet all Martins' requirements.

And now, Martins and Gerrit were standing at the front of the entire team, chatting about something.

"I didn't expect that your ability to persuade people is so strong." Martins showed a slight smile on his face.

Garrett responded seriously: "No, I never showed off my eloquence when facing President Pierre. I just told the actual situation one by one. He is not an irredeemable person. A stupid person, when all the fait accompli was in front of him, he made the right choice, that's all."

"But that's the key, isn't it? Being able to weave facts into a reasonable way and put them in front of reasonable people is an excellent ability in itself."

Gerrit glanced at him sideways: "Captain Martins, do you have to praise me today?"

"Hahaha!" Martins said with a smile, "It's not flattery, I'm just telling the facts." Gerrit also showed a smile: "Then thank you for being so honest."


Suddenly, a slight "didi" sound sounded in their ears at the same time.

This is a signal that the time for action agreed upon earlier has arrived.

The two of them suppressed all the emotions on their faces at the same time and put on their helmets. At this point, the only auras left in their bodies were ice and fire.

"Action...begin!"

……

"Action...begin!"

Listening to the Chapter Commander's orders from the communication signal in his helmet, Anato waved his hand coldly and led the team forward.

To be honest, this is his first actual battle.

Although he had experienced first-hand in his past training that he was no longer the same skinny little boy who had fled from the Qinggu area, he still felt nervous.

However, no matter how nervous he was, his expression, words, and actions would not show it at all.

He is the Phoenix, he is the Emperor's Angel of Death, he is the Governor's most powerful warrior.

He deserves to be the best!

At this moment, he was accompanied by thirty special operations elites wearing exoskeleton armor and three demon hunters wearing special leather armor.

They were the first vanguard team to advance.

He galloped forward and rushed to the front.

When a certain line is crossed, the enemy's counterattack begins immediately.

The storage building in front is about five to six meters above the ground, with many shooting windows opened from the inside. The traitors who stayed inside should have temporarily built shooting platforms in those places.

After sensing another Alliance attack, many of those shooting platforms opened fire.

Some kind of earth-made heavy machine gun emits fire "click-click-click".

These tight shooting windows had caused many casualties to the soldiers of the 31st Airborne Division a few hours ago.

But at this moment, in front of Anato, it was meaningless.

He had already observed these shooting windows. When he vaguely saw figures flashing inside, the bolt gun in his hand shot the bolts into those windows first.

The sound of 'bang bang bang' explosions prevented the seven or eight shooting windows from showing any light in an instant.

And if the remaining tongues of fire fell on him, they would never be able to penetrate the protection of the power armor.

Instead, the bright gunfire pointed out the direction of their attack.

Anato didn't even need to do anything. The special operations elites accompanying him took out the individual rocket launchers that had been prepared long ago. When the space warriors in front helped them attract firepower, they fired the rocket launchers mercilessly. Into those shooting holes.

The enemy's troublesome counterattack window was completely blocked.

In a quick step, Anato had arrived at the closed door.

It had been hit by company and platoon-level firepower from the 31st Airborne Division. Currently, the Alliance is already promoting the distribution of heavy bolters as fixed firepower points to company-level units.

Heavy explosive bombs and 88-caliber mortars have all been bombed here. This was originally the side door of the storage building, which was blasted to pieces, but now it was blocked again by many debris.

But there's nothing to worry about.

Anato quickly ran to its side and attached a melt bomb to the wall of the building on the edge.

Bang.

After the orange light flashed, an irregular hole of 4 × 4 meters appeared where the melt bomb came into contact.

At this moment, another wave of comrades also came up, also led by a Space Marine.

Anato knew him.

That was Calia Gabriel, a new blood who was absorbed into the Chapter a month later than him.

The two nodded to each other, and then threw the tactical grenades through the hole in a tacit understanding, and threw them to the left and right positions respectively.

When the explosion came, Anato entered first, his gun pointed directly at the right side.

In an instant, he found seven or eight targets.

He stepped forward to avoid blocking the follow-up steps of his battle-brothers, firing as he went.

His brain quickly analyzed the threat level of these seven or eight targets, and in an instant, the built-in eyepiece of the tactical helmet colored these people with different colors.

Then, the bolter found these enemies one by one based on the analysis results.

The first to be killed were three blue robes. The ability to possess storm magic mentioned in this intelligence may threaten power armor;

Secondly, when enemies try to pull out grenades or have individual rocket launchers, heavy firepower is also a threat.

Those who were confused and armed with ordinary firearms were placed at the end.

However, these things may sound like a long time, but in fact, they all happen in just a moment.

From the perspective of those cultists, they saw a red giant coming in. Before they could recover from the explosion of the previous tactical grenades, they quickly took three to five steps and fired their bolt guns. After eight blows, eight of them who dared to take the lead fell down directly.

The same thing happened on the left side of the breached hole.

The two Space Marines expanded their forward position on the spot. They occupied both sides of the hole, found temporary bunkers, and used bolt guns to suppress anyone who might threaten the hole in the wall.

At the same time, special forces elites and demon hunters filed in through the entrance of the cave.

When enough people came in, they began to expand inside, slaughtering everyone who dared to appear in front of them.

At this moment, there were five additional explosions in succession, coming from five other places in the warehouse.

The same situation as theirs happened in five other places.

Under the leadership of the Space Marines, who can be regarded as the most elite group of people in the alliance, they used an unstoppable force to break through the warehouse defense line that had previously caused the 31st Airborne Division a lot of hardships, and entered inside.

The casualties incurred in this process were minimal.
