Hammer 40k: Far East Storm

A roar like thunder sounded in the upper part of the sky. Under the irradiation of the gradually setting sun, the sky was suddenly blocked by a huge shadow.

Rayleigh, who was wearing a combat uniform and had his pockets filled with grenades, was determined to die. He was originally prepared to hug the orcs that rushed in and finish him off together at the next moment, but he did not expect that such a turn of events would suddenly occur at this desperate moment. The feeling of being saved from a desperate situation instantly filled every part of his body, every pore of his body was opened, and he sang a hymn of joy in his heart, "Ha, the God Emperor is still looking after us, it seems. Reinforcements are coming."

Rayleigh guessed correctly, what arrived was indeed reinforcements, reinforcements from the person the legion commander mentioned, but this one arrived on a spaceship.

Although he couldn't see the sky, just by hearing the sound and the area of ​​the shadow seen from the shooting hole, he knew that something big was pressing down from the sky.

Then, in front of everyone's attention, fire like a golden sword fell from the sky, striking directly from top to bottom at the center of the wave of orcs on the earth. After a loud bang, the mud and green-skinned orcs were directly thrown away. Reaching a height of more than thirty meters in the air, it drew a high parabola and then suddenly fell down. The ground beneath its feet was shaken by the attack like sea water. The land undulated and shook like waves. The center of the oscillation and shelling was the center of the circle. Spreading out, it was as if a pebble was thrown on a calm lake, causing a circle of ripples. This ripple spread far across the earth, and even everyone in the bunker felt the earth beneath their feet. Rayleigh swayed violently, and he who was already exhausted instantly relaxed his spirit. He became unsteady and fell to the ground.

Then came the second blow, the third blow,...the attack inherited Li's consistent characteristics. Once the ferocious attack started, it was like a violent storm, continuous and non-stop. The ground was being beaten like a heavy drum, and green-skinned orcs were being thrown into the sky like little toy figures, while more orcs were panicking and messing around aimlessly on the ground. Channel. The shelling was like a golden sword thrust from the sky. The battleship's artillery roared from top to bottom at close range, easily completely destroying the morale of the orcs, and what followed was With full firepower on the battleship, at least twenty Vulcan cannons began to roar, firing recklessly on the ground, randomly drawing various lines on the land with the blood and corpses of the orcs.

What suddenly appeared above the battlefield was the Black Rose on which Li was riding. Although compared with regular imperial cruisers like the Silver Wings, the Black Rose is just a little guy. Even among ships, it can only be regarded as a small private adventure ship. But compared to ordinary people, , this ship is still a huge thing that astonishes everyone. It's just a matter of fact. No matter how you say it, the Black Rose is a ship that sails between the stars.

Imagine that when a ship that is far larger than three aircraft carriers combined floats overhead, and the shadow it casts blocks the sky and the sun, what kind of huge pressure will such a huge steel monster bring to the enemy? Oh, what's more, this huge thing that suddenly dropped from the orbit is still spitting out the flames of death. The artillery fire is like a golden holy sword representing the wrath of the God Emperor, so in the blink of an eye, This sudden aid completely reversed the situation of the battle and pushed the morale of the orcs to the bottom.

At this time, Li was squatting on the deck side of the Black Rose. He was holding the sniper rifle No. XC1022. He continued to shoot calmly and without any emotion. Every time Li pulled the trigger, a bullet was fired from XC1022. After the long barrel of the sniper rifle flew out, it accurately took away the life of an orc leader above the captain level. Such precision and efficiency in hunting down their leader among tens of thousands of enemies was due to Li's use of new equipment. One of Li's eyes was equipped with the latest electronic sight, which was connected to the ship's information. The special female mechanical slave No. 74 in the center is Li's mechanical sister - Vivian, and Vivian is connected to the Black Rose's information center. With the help of the battleship's monitoring system, the battle situation on the entire battlefield is quickly scanned and After a quick analysis, the orcs judged to have higher value were circled one by one by the system with red electronic circles and placed on Li's electronic sight, which was placed in front of Li's eyes. What Li had to do was just like playing a video game, with his unique rhythm, he would kill the trapped orcs with one shot without haste, and take away the lives of these orcs coldly and efficiently.

At the same time, Li was condescending, overlooking the entire battlefield, and easily understood the situation of the entire battlefield. Under his instructions, the ship's heavy artillery continued to bombard the largest concentration of orcs, easily causing maximum damage. At this moment, Li and the ship under his feet were almost connected as one. With the help of Vivien, Li was connected to the entire battleship. With the help of the battleship's high-quality analysis system, Li easily and efficiently hunted down high-value targets one by one on the battlefield. , and under Li's command, the battleship's gunfire exerted maximum lethality from top to bottom, so in less than five minutes, the heroic charge of the orcs turned into an unstoppable rout.

The orcs that surged in like a green tide receded like a tide. Behind the orcs were followed by eleven human warriors. They held light weapons, shouted loudly, and fired guns at the orcs at will. Driving the orcs who were thousands of times more numerous than them, they fled in all directions.

Only Rayleigh seemed to feel the gaze from the sky. In the middle of the exciting pursuit of the orcs, he suddenly stopped and looked back at the huge beast in the sky. He was vaguely among the huge steel beasts. I saw a small figure on the street, but the figure just flickered and disappeared.

The crazy eleven warriors only chased for less than five minutes before they had to stop. The excitement brought about by the sudden change in the battle situation had drained the last bit of strength from their bodies. These exhausted soldiers The soldier just lay down on the battlefield full of corpses, laughter gradually began, and then all eleven people began to laugh heartily. Although the soldiers' eyes were already full of tears, they were still laughing.

After a while, these soldiers fell asleep. The rumbling sound above their heads and the huge steel bodies brought them an unprecedented sense of security, even on a battlefield full of corpses and flesh and blood, even in half An hour ago, this place was filled with murderous green-skinned monsters. They were still able to put down all the burdens in their hearts and sleep with unprecedented contentment.

Before closing his eyes, Rayleigh was still contentedly admiring the beasts swimming slowly in the sky. How beautiful it was. Rayleigh smiled with satisfaction and shed tears of satisfaction. What a beautiful battleship, what a beautiful sky, and so on. How beautiful it is to be alive.

When Rayleigh woke up with satisfaction, he was already in a relatively safe field hospital, surrounded by flowers and beautiful nurses in white. What he didn't know was that Rayleigh had become a military officer. Fang became famous, and titles such as "the eleven who witnessed the miracle" and "the eleven warriors who saved the 29th Army" on the battlefield have unknowingly fallen on their heads.

Out of necessity, and also because of the setback on the Autumn Star, the military urgently needs to establish more heroes, especially heroes and warriors like Rayleigh who are in desperate situations and do not forget to fight to the death and are finally rescued. People like this kind of story, and they naturally hope they have the luck of Rayleigh.

But the person who brought Rayleigh luck and truly saved Rayleigh and the entire 29th Army had to take the ship back to the orbit of outer space in distress.

Just ten minutes of uninterrupted saturation shooting consumed 80% of the elixir stock on the Black Rose. If it did not return to the orbit in time to wait for the supply ship to replenish ammunition, the Black Rose would become It has become a huge battleship that can only scare the orcs.

"There is nothing that can be done about it," Vivian said comfortingly: "The Black Rose is a private exploration ship after all. Although it has been simply modified and equipped with enough vulcan guns and ship cannons, it is still It is not a specialized armed warship. Such modification is already very reluctant. The capacity of various weapons and ammunition depots is extremely limited, and it is inevitable that it cannot carry too much ammunition. "

"Ten years ago, I couldn't even install a main gun on the Black Rose. Although the Silver Wing is an imperial-standard cruiser and has enough powerful weapons on the ship, the cost of ammunition is beyond my control. It's affordable." Li said with a wry smile: "The biggest problem at that time was, where to replenish the ammunition after running out? Although you can travel to the empire and find the Far East Military and Naval Base, you can get ammunition replenished by spending some imperial coins. , but we can’t go all the way hundreds of light years away to buy ammunition every time we finish shooting. After more than ten years of development, I originally thought that we were doing well, at least we don’t have to worry. We have enough ammunition, and a few space battleships have been launched into the sea, but I didn’t expect that it only looks a lot better, but we are still in a difficult situation.”

"This is inevitable," Vivien said: "From nothing to now. Brother, you have done amazing things that countless people cannot do. Without you, Reach is finished. We can't be in vain. Just, it takes time to develop and move forward.”

"I just feel a pity," Li sighed: "If there were more ships that could directly participate in the war, then this battle would be much simpler."
