Chapter 158 Huge Waves
For Kazaniv, this group of Fire Caste melee warriors wearing combat uniforms are not as troublesome as those drones.
In terms of close combat, reaction speed determines life and death. The Fire Caste's combat uniform is still based on Tau control, supplemented by intelligent control. Even if the intelligent control system makes a judgment in a split second, it still needs confirmation from a Tau warrior before it can be implemented.
The reaction speed of Tau warriors and Fire castes is only about half as fast as that of mortals who have undergone surgery. By the time you react, your head will be flying three feet away.
The deflection device of the cavalry terminator protects the warriors, making these weak attacks more like cleaning the dirt on the surface of the armor.
The battle-hardened veterans of the First Company rampage among enemy ships.
The precious XV25 Crisis Battle Suit was put into use. This type of advanced battle suit that can achieve 99.9% optical invisibility has caused a large number of casualties to the Empire. Now it was exposed in the brilliance of Baals' psychic energy and was blasted to pieces.
In the open area, the drones kept firing at the cavalry-type Terminator. The Wasps and Kroots rushed to the Terminator without fear of death, trying to chop down the metal monster in front of them with their "powerful" bodies.
The Tau's XV48 fire support suits were pouring firepower from a distance. However, they found in despair that these kinetic energy weapons could only delay the enemy's actions. Facing "dog-headed" enemies, they could also leave some craters. Facing those towering shoulders, The Terminator Armor can only cause a ripple in the enemy's shield.
No, these enhanced extended-range armor-piercing bullets should be able to break through the enemy's so-called power armor, or at least break it.
The enemies are all "command-type heavy armor"?
(Because there were so few Terminators dispatched in the last expedition, they believed that this hard armor was a precious "battle uniform" worn by the commander)
The Tau Army carrying an anti-heavy armor shoulder-launched ion missile quietly poked its head from a small corner, and a bomb flew towards its head.
At the critical moment, a Soldier Drone blocked the attack for it, and the Tau Army took the opportunity to launch a missile.
The soldier responsible for suppressing fire in this area happened to be reloading, and the screener's view was blocked by another soldier drone, so he didn't see the missile.
In desperation, the Terminator warrior wielded his power sword and struck the missile with a sword.
The blue electric light mixed with the milky white plasma turned most of the power sword into molten iron, which dripped to the ground and sprinkled on the warriors' armor, which also angered the Astartes.
"For the sake of all mankind, crush these bastards!"
The trainee commander was wearing the XV22 command uniform and running in the corridor. This expensive crisis combat suit can travel three times as fast as a conventional stealth suit, but it is not used in combat now.
All important command personnel are running towards the escape cabin.
Yes, the Tau warships did not have a collision angle, so they made room to install escape hatches.
Surprisingly, the person inside the warship who caused Kazanev the most trouble was Guvisa, the human Tau Alliance.
They gathered in groups, relying on the automatic turrets and unmanned soldiers in the battleships to attack the Bell Terminators at all levels. Even if they blew up their own battleship facilities and piled a large amount of meaningless waste in the passage, they would not be able to do anything. To stop Kazaniv from rushing towards the Tau's command room.
The Astartes will show no mercy in purging these traitors.
"Liberate the entire galaxy!" The collective roar from the Red Torrent Chapter surged through the loudspeakers and pressed towards the enemy.
Those human traitors were almost deaf, and most of them huddled on the ground in pain, holding their ears. Some rolled around behind crude shelters, trying to use centrifugal force to relieve the severe pain in their ears.
And the Terminators stomped through the bunkers mercilessly, crushing them along with the ridiculous metal plates.
Kazanev raised the war blade high and kicked the metal sealed door hard. The door was deformed by the kick, but it was not kicked open. Kazanev seemed to feel that he had lost face, and the chain sword hit the door hard, causing a lot of damage. Break the door open.
Oncoming fist-sized steel balls and pulse attacks with flashing light.
Without dodge, the storm bolter in Kazanev's left arm suddenly opened fire. The powerful Kraken-type armor-piercing bomb penetrated the metal wall bunker on the enemy battleship, blasting the rats hiding behind it into flesh and blood. piece.
The Terminators indifferently move forward, break through, move forward, break through.
I am the one with the strongest defense and the most violent attack on the battlefield.
I am a rock in the huge waves, I am a lighthouse in the storm.
I am an unparalleled sharp sword, the guardian of the human race for thousands of years.
I am the Emperor's death angel.
My grandma will chop you guys to death~
When the Jump Gang troops attacked and bombarded them all the way to the bridge, the Guvisas guarding there had no intention of fighting and were lying on the ground shaking with inferior laser guns.
No, it's not them who are shaking.
The entire battleship was shaking.
The rescue capsule escaped smoothly, and a piece of the Guardian-class mothership fell off, spraying primitive flames, hitting scattered warship fragments along the way, and flying toward other warships in embarrassment.
Kazanev looked mockingly at the Guvisas who didn't even have the courage to shoot.
So, when they escaped, didn't they take you with them?
The Greater Good, ridiculous, bam~
A Guardian-class mothership was easily captured, but the soldiers were not very happy.
The Eternal Mountain blocked other warships with its own hull. The enemy fired desperately at the vital points of their own warship, hoping to cause the warship to explode and kill the remaining Tau Alliance troops and Astartes together.
"Come back, Kazanev, and stop using the gang."
When transporting the soldiers back, the enemy's Soldier Bee drone hidden in the space debris also destroyed a transport ship. We dispatched the Shadow Bee fighter jets to successfully pick up the soldiers from the space drift.
The gain outweighs the loss, and it is not as enjoyable as the bombardment.
At the same time, the Dawnlight moved towards the enemy's last Guardian-class mothership, the one where the commander-in-chief was located.
Immediately, a Defender-class cruiser quickly rushed towards the battle barge at a strange angle, hoping to delay time.
Melta torpedoes were launched, along with a flying formation of Fury interceptors, using aircraft to cover the space torpedoes and engage enemy drones in the sky.
The enemy also launched "torpedoes", at least that's what the Dawnlight thought at the time. Later, the channels of these "torpedoes" were determined, and they would fly in front of the battleship and would not affect navigation.
However, the defensive weapons still fired. I don't know if the "torpedo" on the opposite side has a guidance effect.
When the remaining "torpedoes" floated in front of the dawn light, they suddenly exploded and emitted a bunch of strange cloud-like colloids scattered in the universe.
The Dawnlight hit the ship without any surprise, and the entire ship was covered in sticky stuff.
With a flash of fire, a large amount of metal burned, and the entire bow of the Dawn Light turned into a sea of fire.
The effect of metal burning agent is worse than that of promethium, and the titanium group is not as effective as anything else, but the innovative ideas are good.
The Tau didn't intend to rely on these things to destroy the enemy. They couldn't even break through the armor. However, these fierce burning flames covered the detection of the bird servant. The energy signal on the bird servant was full and it was impossible to detect the enemy in front.
The battleship's observation hatch was also in blazing fire, making it difficult to see the situation ahead.
For a while, the Dawnlight could only use the communication navigation of other warships to move forward.
Taking this opportunity, the "Imperial Navy", which had been far away from the Guardian-class mothership, returned to a safe position.
"All battleships are moving closer to me, taking turns to cover, and fighting for the loading of the ground-based forts..." The plenipotentiary commander is working hard to command the fleet, trying to launch another round of offensive.
"Boom~~~"
The giant gaseous planet below suddenly experienced lightning and thunder, and then a huge vortex appeared on the planet. Even when observed from space, it was quite shocking.
In the confused eyes of everyone, a scene of destruction appeared.
The entire gaseous planet seemed to be pinched by a giant hand. The gas on the entire planet was no longer spherical, but the shape of irregular waves produced after a water-filled balloon was smashed. The material underground continued to surge on a large scale. came out, the environment of the whole planet was completely chaotic.
Then the gas in the middle of the large whirlpool fluctuated and spread far away in a wave-like manner, revealing the liquid core of the earth.
This is not the scariest thing, the scarier thing is behind. As the wave-like wave quickly attacks the entire planet, more and more gas is accumulated in it, and then it circles the planet and rushes back to the original point.
The huge waves composed of earthy yellow gas and red liquid metal rose hundreds of thousands of kilometers high, with lightning flashing in them, and the momentum was astonishing.
This huge wave was mixed with the debris of the Wasp people's buildings and shot towards the battleship in the orbit of the planet.
Everyone was scared out of their wits. The battleship pulled up urgently and quickly launched evasive maneuvers.
Since the Tau warships were deployed around the planet, they were closer to the planet, followed by the Eternal Mountain.
At this time, the instigator of a certain maple was roaring with afterburner! Overloaded engine! Run quickly.
I just thought the forts down there were too annoying and I figured we couldn't colonize them down there, so I made a big mistake.
Of course, the cyclone torpedo seems to be a global-scale blow to the earth's crust to cause a devastating blow to the enemies on the surface. It is not known whether it can attack giant gaseous planets.
So I lost a bipolar cyclone torpedo.
Then, the effect is outstanding.
The Eternal Mountain climbed urgently and flew away from the huge waves. The hot gas melted away the handsome outer coating of the battleship!
It will cost a lot of money to repaint.
Yifeng's heart was bleeding.
On the other hand, as for the Tau, it's just fine.
It just lost all the frigates, merchant fleet and five slow cruisers.
Note: Tau warships are small battleships attached to large warships for long-distance flight. Therefore, the engines of small warships are generally relatively backward, and they fly slowly.
After a huge wave, everyone scattered and ran away. When the battle group came to their senses, the enemy had already started the warp engine and fled in several directions.
Uh, has this galaxy been cleaned up?
First stop for star hopping?
Isn’t it a bit hasty to just jump on one? No, there are not even solid planets here. Forget it, continue to attack forward.
With that in mind, the three Moon-class cruisers and the Iron Jungle strike cruiser that had been urgently repaired over there had already arrived with supply transport ships.
——————————————————————————————————
The Tau fleet was knocked unconscious. Only a short time after the war started, our fleet only had one Guardian-class mothership and seven cruisers left.
The losses were heavy and there was no shame in meeting the Greater Good.
What happened to the planet that could trigger such a violent phenomenon?
Whether he couldn't believe it or didn't think about it at all, the Tau commander thought that this was a natural phenomenon on the planet, or that the enemy used weather control weapons.
It has never seen planet-destroying weapons, and naturally it would not have thought of the rich variety of extermination weapons in the human empire.
It looked back at the ether nobles behind it. The current situation was beyond everyone's expectations. The strategy of preserving naval power and fighting the Yin people on land was completely unworkable.
"Our elite navy has suffered too much loss and cannot continue to be wasted like this." The commander-in-chief was afraid that the "Imperial Navy" would catch up again, so he directly ordered the troops to move directly to the next galaxy without stopping.
"We can't continue fighting like this, the enemy's shield is too thick."
The etheric noble did not speak. Commanding was none of his business. He still had to think about how to give an inspiring speech and how to explain this huge strategic mistake to the top leader.
The Commander-in-Chief continued: "We need a group of brave troops, loyal followers of the Greater Good, to drive merchant ships or other things, ram enemy warships with their lives, entangle the enemy, and overload the enemy with our advanced warships. The shield provides time and space.”
"Are you sure? This is a very risky plan and the losses will be huge. Are you sure you can succeed?"
"I need more advanced warships. Fleets from all over the world need support, as well as merchant fleets. We can't always let the fleet of the Human Empire roam around in our territory and cut off the strength of strong men."
The commander-in-chief was very angry now. He believed that the enemy had used the land to attack his own fleet, and he wanted to return in revenge.
"Yes, we can no longer continue the previous plan to fight against each other. Our losses are too great. Even if we entangle the opponent's warships, with our current eight ships, we cannot bring effective damage to the enemy. Now Letting the navy rely on defense lines to fight will only increase casualties. We must now pool our strength and fight in a natural environment that is favorable to us."
In this way, the Tau almost abandoned most of the worlds along the route. A large number of transport ships carried mines, space mines, and automatic turrets there, and transported the residents of the colonies back.
Merchant fleets and defender fleets stationed in various places converged on the world of Viteora.
A large number of star systems on the Red Torrent Chapter's attack line are full of traps and drone attacks.
Elite Fire Caste squads hidden throughout space will harass them, even if they cause fatigue to the mortals aboard their ships.
——————————————————————————————————
After this battle, Yifeng's army defeated three enemy systems in a row without encountering large-scale fleet resistance, and penetrated the enemy's first line of defense along the way.
Although space mines and intelligently controlled AI drones hidden in asteroid belts brought a lot of trouble to the Chapter, the Astartes used iron fist to clear away everything that dared to stand in their way.
Later, Yifeng's fleet temporarily stopped. During a subspace voyage, demons invaded the battleship, which now requires a cumbersome chaos inspection.
Sisyphus spent a lot of time patrolling around with his pumpkin hammer.
This prophetic old think tank is very unhappy now because he found that when he started the "Evil God Simulator", it was difficult to find the shadow of the Tau people.
Therefore, it is difficult for the Pumpkin Hammer to launch an offensive against the Tau from the subspace level, and Sisyphus really becomes a melee mage wielding a sledgehammer.
angry.
In addition, the old prophet was very depressed to find that since William's army and Yifeng reconciled, it was difficult for him to predict the future of his own army.
To be precise, the only time he predicted to see Yifeng was in the time and space fragment.
Not only did this not confuse him, but it made him even more convinced that Yifeng was an important person.
A ruthless man who dares to endure the pain caused by the shield of the Untouchable for eons can achieve great things.
Um? Traitors of Chaos, die!
Sisyphus beat a corrupted mortal into a pulp with a hammer, then walked slowly and continued to clean up.
In this way, Yifeng's large fleet stayed in this galaxy for a while.
This creates a misunderstanding among the enemy.
Especially those who practice esotericism.
Could it be that the enemy really retreated after half the attack? Quick, ask the empire’s secret agents if they did it!
The people of the Secret Cult are in a panic now. They know that the Empire dispatched is not the main force, but it is enough to defeat the Tau without the Secret Cult warship being dispatched.
But why didn't they move? The enemy didn't suffer much damage.
Everyone was confused for a while, so a big man from the Tantric Cult came to Viola's world.
There were many Nikassar people acting with him.
The Nikasars were the second race to join the Greater Good.
Of course, only in name.
The Esoteric Cult is an alliance of many alien races, and those who fled to Tau are certainly not just members of the Esoteric Cult of one race.
This group of Nikasars are just the descendants of a certain group of esoteric cult leaders.
Their psychic abilities are so powerful that they can even fake non-existent memories in the minds of Astartes. The Death Watch's reconnaissance forces had no visuals, but witnessed the strength of their enemies and dubbed them Alpha Plus psykers, the highest classification the Empire could give psykers.
The kind of level where you can tear apart a Titan with your hands and receive an orbital bombardment on your face.
Just such a group of things can be regarded as the supreme mentor in the Assassin Court, but they are actually hiding behind the scenes because they are "fearful of the empire's purge".
Obviously it is not because they are afraid of their psychic talents being exposed, but because their race is exposed.
The empire's pursuit of the secret cult will never end.
The name of this esoteric patriarch is Tuqi Luo. As an "ether", the amplified psychic converter is worn as a decorative badge on his chest.
It slightly infused psychic energy into it, sending out a ripple of psychic energy that affected the Tau's pheromones from the real world rather than from the subspace, causing the Tau to enter a very frenzied state.
Viola's family world instantly had high morale. It seemed that the previous naval defeat was just part of the plan, to lure the enemy into the "trap" and make the necessary sacrifices.
The leader of the Secret Cult watched the "precious" imperial information handed over to it by the Plenipotentiary Commander, including the video recording of its own fleet being beaten by a battleship.
Knowing the situation is one thing, but publicizing it is another.
This failure stirred up a thousand waves, and the "friendly troops" of the Greater Good were somewhat shaken.
The "Great Elder" of Ether wants to launch a star-wide speech to stabilize the morale of the military.
"First of all, by order of the Supreme Council of the Supreme Good, I am here to stand with you all and fight to the death against the invasion of the evil empire!
I firmly believe that everyone will do their duty and be loyal to the Greater Good.
The key to this battle is whether our great and brave warriors are willing to dedicate their lives to the Greater Good! Are you willing to pave our way to victory with your blood?
When the enemy's army appears, I believe that every race and every warrior is ready to fight the enemy to the end.
Needless to say, when the enemy army reaches the depths of the star field, I will send out a "tiger, tiger, tiger." signal.
At that time, hundreds of ships will launch together, and the army will attack, heading straight for the enemy's flagship, which will surely blast the enemy into scrap metal!
I will raise the ancient 'T' battle flag, stand quietly under the battle flag, and never retreat until we are completely victorious!
Hundreds of years ago, the armies of the Human Empire retreated in embarrassment on this battlefield with the flag flying, and the Greater Good achieved a great victory. Now, the glory still shines on us!
Onward, for the Greater Good! "
The Grand Elder's speech boosted the morale of the entire army, and the Tau army was waiting solemnly.
On the surface, Great Elder Tuqiluo fought to the death, but secretly he contacted a large number of dead soldiers of the Fire clan deployed on the front line, those elite scouts who were ambushing in the galaxy.
Did some kind of space mine work? Is it some kind of natural phenomenon that blocks the enemy's advance? Did the drone perform a meritorious service?
No, the "Imperial Navy" just drove into the middle of the galaxy and then stopped without warning.
The Tau tried to send troops to test, but they all ended up being blown to pieces.
Elder Tuqiluo withdrew his spiritual energy, turned around and walked towards the gathering place of the Nikasar people.
At the same time, Yifeng was idle in a certain galaxy. He drafted a "Letter to the Compatriots in the Far East Star Territory" and threw it wherever he could.
The Astartes attack in all directions, and the light of humanity shines across the galaxy.
Following the emperor's great ambition, he has shed blood for the human race for thousands of years.
Move forward!
Unswerving, unstoppable, invincible, unstoppable.
as always.
The ancient human empire has been advancing in the galaxy for more than ten thousand years. We are corrupt, we are dark, and we are crazy.
We are still the largest force in the galaxy, and we still hold tightly to humanity's last hope.
courage.
Courage is the hymn of mankind.
Courage still exists in the human heart, and hope streaks across the sky like a shooting star.
We come with hope, and the blazing fire will burn away the rotten wood.
Our power is like a torrent, cleansing away the filth in the galaxy.
We wait quietly in the red flames, waiting for the madness to fade away, waiting for the rebirth of mankind.
Unite, fellow citizens, we are human beings!
One finger is fragile and weak, but five fingers can make a fist!
Unite!
Use your fists to fight back the enemy's aggression, use your roar to respond to the enemy's lies, use the wrath of the God of All Machines to burn the enemy's spears, and use your dripping blood to tell the enemy: There is still one breath left, and the battle will not stop!
Unite, the remaining compatriots in the dark world!
Unite, fellow fighting compatriots in the five star regions!
Unite, all our struggling compatriots across the galaxy!
There has never been a savior! There are only generations of unyielding souls.
The Emperor's vision guides us, and humanity across the galaxy is united under one great ideal.
Unite! Liberate the entire galaxy!
