Chapter 714: The Battle of Ullanor·Landing Operation

Ullanor Galaxy, Mandeville Point.

A huge fleet is gathering outside the galaxy.

As the ships arrive in the real universe one after another.

The size of this fleet is still growing.

Battleships of different sizes, cruisers, destroyers and frigates, as well as a larger number of transport ships and forging ships surrounded by many warships, formed a dense cloud of celestial bodies composed of steel in the void.

Next to the transport ships and forging ships, three peculiar fishbone-shaped spaceships attracted the attention of the surrounding naval officers and technical priests. They were all told that this was a mining spaceship from the Phaeton forging world, but they didn't know why this expedition needed a mining spaceship.

Around the fleet, some scattered twisted wreckage of destroyed orc-made objects can be seen, probably warships, space stations or deep space satellites, indicating that the first naval advance fleet to arrive here has started a firefight with the orcs.

Battleship Rectification, bridge.

Fu Qinghai sat in the center of the captain's chair.

Looking out through the armored glass dome and portholes, whether to the left, right, forward or upward, the field of vision was filled with densely packed warships of various types. The huge military power of the human empire was vividly displayed at this moment. Once mobilized, even if only a part of it was mobilized, the terrifying military force of the current galactic overlord could still frighten most forces in the universe.

Fu Qinghai took a deep breath.

For a moment, some emotions surged.

It has been several years since he entered the reincarnation world and seven or eight years since he became a space warrior, but he has never commanded such a large army. A huge screen in the bridge was divided into dozens of small frames, and the portraits of seventeen Astartes war captains, three naval fleet lord admirals, twenty-one Imperial Guard Corps commanders, and six great sages of the Mechanicus appeared on it at the same time.

During the nearly one month of mobilization, Lansong and Williot tried their best to dispatch naval fleets and guards from other places. Although many star regions are now suffering from or have suffered from orc invasions, if the two are given more time, they can dispatch more troops to join and assemble.

The Martian Mecha Guards also sent out their main forces this time. After Volkan returned to Holy Terra, there was no need for Fu Qinghai to urge Kubik. The Forge Commander simply sent out the most powerful troops under his command, including the Skitarii, the Hundred Machine Fleet, the Fire Bee Legion, the Restoration Order, and several Knight Families.

At this time, fifty-one avatars with different styles on the screen all looked at Fu Qinghai quietly, waiting for his orders.

"Launch the attack according to the original plan."

Fu Qinghai said calmly.

"Understood!"

The Space Marines responded in unison, and the generals of the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Guard also nodded. As the avatars on the screen turned black and disappeared one by one, the dense and huge battleship cluster finally moved. The two advance fleets of the Imperial Navy broke away from the fleet and accelerated forward, and began to exchange fire with the orc warships that came to block them. The follow-up fleets moved forward at a steady speed.

Yes, Fu Qinghai had never commanded such a large and complex army. Even though he had the super processor of MODOK's Brain, and his information processing ability far exceeded that of mortals and other space warriors, his ability to receive information was also limited. His eyes and ears could not take into account so much battlefield information pouring in at the same time, and there would definitely be omissions.

But if he let Qingming connect directly with the bridge of the Suzheng battleship and receive the data link transmitted by other fleets, with Qingming's computing power, theoretically, she could issue specific micro-operation instructions to the entire fleet, such as "a certain close-in defense gun on a certain frigate turns 30 degrees to the right."

The micro-operation of a certain transport captain has always been ridiculed, but to be realistic, there is nothing wrong with micro-operation. It's just that for traditional modern warfare, the degree of informatization is not enough to support the specific instructions to every soldier, regardless of information transmission or information processing capabilities.

For a sci-fi future war like Warhammer 40K, this kind of micro-control is feasible in hardware, but this is not Fu Qinghai's command style, but Perturabo's command style. Even if the communication is not restricted by enemy interference, Fu Qinghai tends to give the command to the commanders on the front line.

Because Fu Qinghai believes that the core of war is people, and people are a very magical creature, sometimes weaker than mud, sometimes stronger than steel, and no matter how comprehensive the battlefield information is, it is impossible to fully reflect the true status of everyone.

Therefore, the expedition plan he formulated did not require the Imperial Guard, the Imperial Navy, and the various Astartes regiments to always act according to his real-time instructions-although he has the ability to give specific instructions to each soldier, but after setting the tactical goals of each imperial army, he delegated the specific decision-making power to the grassroots commanders on the front line.

Fu Qinghai believes that micro-control command is only applicable to one unit, that is, the Mechanicus's unit. In addition to the intelligent control mechas and armed mechas, most of the Mechanicus's soldiers are also human, but the Mechanicus's requirements for soldiers are inhumane. These soldiers have been trained to be a part of a complex war machine. The high-end combat forces such as the Titan Legion Knights still have a certain degree of autonomy, while the Skitarii, as the cornerstone of the Mechanicus army, have become accustomed to unconditionally obeying the micro-control of the sages.

At this time, in front of the coalition fleet, two Imperial Navy advance fleets were deployed horizontally in the void, and the hulls drew a precisely calculated arc, aiming at the hastily attacking orc warships with superior firepower and firing in succession, turning these rampaging green warships into clusters of fireworks in the void.

Fu Qinghai sat firmly in the captain's chair.

Judging from the hasty performance of the green warships.

The orcs of Ullanor could not be said to be on high alert.

The beast should have never expected that the human empire would actually lock onto the location of the orc capital in such a short time and gather a large number of troops to come straight to it. No battle moon was seen in the galaxy. Without a battle moon, the coalition fleet lost its biggest threat.

Of course, it is also possible that the orcs have destroyed all the battle moons. In total, the White Scars and the Last Wall killed three battle moons, and the Imperial Navy also killed one battle moon. Together with one from the Ultramarines and one from the Blood Angels, a total of six battle moons have been destroyed.

Do the orcs have no battle moons?

Before getting accurate information.

Fu Qinghai dared not jump to conclusions.

Based on the principle of predicting the enemy, he could only assume that the orcs had other battle moons, so the human coalition had to capture Ullanor and kill the beast in the shortest possible time, otherwise once the other imaginary battle moons appeared in the galaxy, it would be a disaster for the entire coalition fleet.

The core of the entire plan formulated by Fu Qinghai was to achieve success in one battle. Everyone knows the principle of "the first push is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted". In the original novel, the human empire went to Ullanor three times, but they had completely lost their spirit in the end. The third expedition of Sean to Ullanor was all due to the threat of assassins planted by Wangorich around Lansong and Williot, which forced the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Guard to cooperate with the Space Marines to send troops.

Fu Qinghai will not repeat the same mistake again.

"How long will it take to reach the orbit of Ullanor?"

Fu Qinghai asked.

"According to the calculation of the ship-borne thinker system, we will reach the orbital space in ten hours, Lord Qingshan."

Admiral Lord Price replied.

The range of the Ullanor galaxy is not large, and the galaxy gravity field cannot provide too much strategic buffer time for this planet. The distance from Mandeville Point to the orbit of Ullanor is not far.

This galaxy is far away from the core control area of ​​the human empire, and it cannot be said to be rich in resources. Otherwise, the human empire would not ignore it, and would not even know that a huge orc force had risen on this planet in the past thousand years.

Because the resources here are not abundant, Fu Qinghai speculated that the beasts chose Ullanor as their capital more as a symbolic meaning. More than a thousand years ago, the human empire defeated the most powerful Ork empire in history here. The human emperor killed the orc warlord King Urak Urg in battle. After the victory, the human empire also held a grand military parade here with the participation of 18 gene primarchs. Among the many slogans of the beasts to attack the human empire, there is the word "revenge", claiming that they want to avenge the former orc empire.

It is said that the beasts actually know about a thousand years ago.

Could it be that the greenskins have such a thing as "history"?

The more Fu Qinghai thought about it, the more strange it became.

It is also because Ullanor is a planet that the human empire conquered a thousand years ago. Some basic geographical data about this planet can be found in the ancient databases of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of the Interior, so the human coalition does not need to wait until the field survey is completed before formulating the corresponding combat plan, and can exclude some weapon options in advance based on the data.

Ullanor has no core.

First of all, exclude the bipolar cyclone torpedo.

Ullanor has an atmosphere.

Atmospheric incineration torpedoes can be considered.

However, underground nuclear bunkers and ground-based void shields can block oxidation and incineration chain reactions. Orcs also have shield technologies such as bubble shields. Using atmospheric incineration torpedoes may not necessarily produce the expected effect. Moreover, once atmospheric incineration torpedoes are deployed, the oxygen in the atmosphere is depleted. For a period of time, troops like the Imperial Guard that are not equipped with fully enclosed power armor will not be able to land on the surface of the planet.

Fu Qinghai thought about it again and again and finally ruled out the option of atmospheric incineration torpedoes. He has the powerful weapon of the Sister of Silence, so there is no need to risk changing the plot by launching atmospheric incineration torpedoes. The core goal of the decapitation operation is to kill the beasts, not to let the orcs go underground and turn it into a protracted war. He does not need to eliminate all the orcs on Ullanor, he only needs to kill the beasts, and the remaining orcs will naturally collapse.

Of course, there is one last option.

Orks are organic organisms.

So the virus bomb will be effective.

But Fu Qinghai had never considered the virus bomb. Not to mention that the Life Eater virus could also be isolated by the underground bunker, the key point was that this virus bomb was the only one in his hand and one of the few virus bombs that could be found in the entire human empire. Its research value was far greater than its actual combat value. It would not be used on Ullanor unless it was absolutely necessary.

The fierce space naval battle in the galaxy continued.

Facing the three imperial naval fleets, the hastily organized fleet of the orcs was completely vulnerable. As time went on, the naval fleet cleared the orc warships in the galaxy and destroyed the orbital defense facilities of Ullanor, allowing the subsequent large fleet to approach the orbital space of the planet.

From Fu Qinghai's perspective, the tactics of the imperial navy were indeed a bit dull, but the overall performance was still remarkable. The three lord admirals all intended to perform well in front of him. Although he was the actual commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, he did not intervene in the command of the naval fleet. As he adhered to the command principle, he gave the decision-making power to the grassroots commanders at the front line.

At this time, a ring-shaped space station that was broken into several pieces was floating in the orbital space of Ulano. This was the Orc orbital defense facility that had just been destroyed by the Imperial Navy. Unlike the Gothic-style space castle-style orbital space stations of the Human Empire, the Orc space station used hollowed-out meteorites as stations, and then used corridor bridges to connect dozens of giant meteorites into one piece.

It was full of the rough and practical style of the greenskins.

The human coalition fleet gradually invaded the orbital space.

The detectors and auspicious instruments carried by the battleship Suzheng presented the scanned image of the current Ulano star on the strategic table. Fu Qinghai stood up from the captain's chair, with his hands on the edge of the table, his eyes fixed on the slowly rotating spherical holographic projection in front of him. As expected, the surface of the planet was covered with large and small layers of shield-type shield systems.

According to the distribution of the surface shield array, we can roughly determine where the core area of ​​the orc capital is - it must be the area with the densest number of shields. In the image rendered by the detection array, the fortresses and fortresses in that area are spread out along the ridge, and there are towering temples and continuous factories. The defense is really solid.

"Gaoge Garden."

Fu Qinghai whispered to himself while looking at the projection.

According to the original novel plot provided by Vera.

This area is the capital of the orc capital planet.

"Analyze the shield type."

Fu Qinghai turned around and ordered his staff.

"Some are modified ship-borne void shields and ground-based void shields, and the types of other shields are unclear."

The mortal staff on the bridge immediately replied.

On the holographic projection of Ulano, some shields turned red and were marked. These were the shield systems seized by the orcs from human warships or planets. In addition, those unidentified shields were likely to be the orcs' characteristic bubble shields, and the shield generation principle was unknown.

Thanks to the characteristics of orc technology, the structures of different orc artifacts are extremely different. From guns to chariots to warships and shields, it is difficult to name them with a unified specification. In addition, the orcs are full of personal interest in thinking and transformation. Compared with planned construction, it is more like forcibly piecing together various salvaged parts, which further increases this difference.

"Torpedo."

Fu Qinghai uttered a word lightly.

"Understood!"

The officer in the bridge immediately conveyed the order.

According to the previously formulated combat plan, all warships with torpedo launch capabilities, whether Space Marines or the Imperial Navy, are adjusting the bow direction and aiming the launch tube at the shield array on the surface. Torpedoes are the best choice to deal with shields, especially since ground-based shield arrays cannot be evaded by maneuvers like warships, and can only stand still and be bombed passively.

In orbital space, the densely packed warships all pointed their bows at the surface of the planet, like a circle of needle-shaped iron sand attracted by a magnet, and torpedoes slid out of the pipes one after another, dragging long flame trails towards ground targets. The defensive weapon arrays on the surface were equally unwilling to be outdone, with lasers of varying thicknesses and missiles of varying sizes also madly shooting at the human coalition fleet.

The offensive and defensive war between fleets and planets is a war with both advantages and disadvantages. Planets on the defensive side often have more energy reserves and ammunition reserves, and can sustain a longer war of attrition. The only advantage of the fleet on the offensive side is that it is flexible and proactive, and can choose when, where and how to launch an attack.

Fu Qinghai did not choose to attack the Gogo Garden directly. It was obvious that the defense facilities there must be the most dense. It was not a wise and efficient plan for the fleet in space to compete with the city on the surface. Even if the fleet used up all the torpedoes, it might not be able to blow up the Gogo Garden. Not every ship in the joint fleet was a warship. It was also necessary to prevent the orcs from other places from returning to defend the capital.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

He aimed at a relatively small city next to the Gogo Garden. He planned to raze the orc city and then build a landing site. After the Space Marines, Imperial Guards and Mechanicus landed on the surface, they would attack the Gogo Garden from the ground, making the attack more three-dimensional and putting the ground troops into the battlefield as soon as possible instead of waiting in the sky.

The densely packed giant torpedoes were like a doomsday punishment from the sky. The black shells rubbed out red flames in the atmosphere, turning into long meteors one after another, heading straight for the cluster of orc buildings on the surface. The sky of Ulanor was suddenly filled with a shining meteor shower, and every orc on the surface could see this beautiful scene symbolizing destruction when he looked up.

The void shield could not stop torpedoes, which deliberately slowed down to pass through the shield, but other weapons could. Thick lasers lit up from the surface, cutting out crisscrossing nets in the air. The torpedoes falling from the sky were blown up one after another. The orcs' rapid-fire guns and anti-aircraft guns were also spewing wildly, splashing several dense chains of ammunition swinging like snakes in the sky, trying to form the last low-altitude defense line to intercept the torpedoes.

Some torpedoes exploded in the air, and groups of yellow flames and black smoke lit up in the sky, like bright fireworks in the clear sky. The raging flames and huge air waves produced by the low-altitude air explosions of some torpedoes passed over the heads of the surface orcs, and the shock wave airflow made them stagger and fall.

Some torpedoes successfully broke through the interception of lasers and shells, passed through the blurred light film of the shield and fell to the ground, causing the earth to fission and sky-high explosions. Mushroom clouds rose one after another, and the fortresses and fortresses expanded, burst and exploded in an instant, and shock waves and rubble swept everything around.

The charge of space torpedoes is far greater than that of macro-cannon shells. Even a few torpedoes that broke through the interception and fell into the city can cause great damage. However, before the orcs recovered from the explosion, almost in the next second, dozens of Sword Tail-class interceptors broke through the flames and smoke in the sky, accompanied by the crazy and dense shooting of scarlet laser beams, and the whistling of the rotating launch of airborne missile pods.

The interceptor group passed over the building at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye. The twin laser cannons accurately shot the green-skinned guys next to the anti-aircraft artillery fortifications and missile launchers. The onboard Thinker system automatically assigned targets, and the missiles with built-in tracking scanners flew around. A few seconds later, these anti-aircraft weapons were also blown into a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron.

As a standard air superiority fighter, the Swordtail-class interceptor is extremely fast, but its firepower for ground bombing is seriously insufficient. However, after the Ork anti-aircraft fortifications were destroyed, the slower Thunderhawk gunships and Flame Raptor gunships immediately followed with a whistle. The various airborne weapons armed to the teeth began to suppress the ground indiscriminately as the gunships circled.

These gunships did not even find an open space to slow down and land. They opened the hatch in mid-air, and the Space Marines equipped with jump packs jumped down one after another in the fierce wind. Flames gushed out of the turbofan of the jump pack. The Space Marines glided for a distance and then dived towards the orcs near the commanding heights and firing points. With the impact of the flight, they raised the chainsaw sword in their hands and chopped the orc leader who was rushing towards them into two pieces with a diagonal sword. Blood and flesh were sprayed and splashed.

The jump pack flying soldiers of the Iron Pagoda landed one after another.

They waved their weapons and began to kill the orcs.

At the same time, after the previous batch of Sword Tail-class interceptors had used up all their onboard ammunition, they circled in the air to slow down. In the dazzling mechanical transformation, they turned into several light squire knight mechas and landed with a bang. The Thunder Eagle gunboats and Flame Raptor gunboats also turned into heavy knight mechas, or super-heavy tanks such as Scimitars, Shadow Swords, and Mastodons, to provide heavy firepower support for the Space Marine airborne troops.

Using fast airborne troops to penetrate the center of the enemy's rear is a tried and tested tactic, and it is also the favorite tactic of the Russian army. However, since ancient times, the lack of heavy firepower in airborne troops has been an unsolvable problem. Orbital airborne is of course also a kind of airborne. Now the leader warrior switches to the vehicle form to solve this problem. After the fighter gunboat deploys the space warriors, it immediately turns into a mecha tank on the spot to start fire support.

This is the Fourth Company of the Iron Pagoda Regiment.

As the support point and foothold for the first landing.

Worthy of the name of "first landing" in the company number.

The Fourth Company has just gained a foothold in this orc city and began to clear one by one the large ground defense facilities that the orcs can use to attack orbital space. Immediately, another meteor shower broke through the thin smoke and dust in the sky and fell directly to the ground. But this time it is no longer a torpedo, but a Siren Raid Claw airborne pod.

Giant iron claws plunged into the streets of the orc city one after another, and the support feet of the airdrop pods were deeply embedded in the cracked and broken ground and roofs. Then, the storm launchers and hot melt cutters performed routine cleaning of the landing area, and teams of space warriors filed out of the lowered hatches.

"Don't worry about those laser turrets and bunker fortifications!"

Qiao Shida strode out of the airdrop pod.

He loudly brought new orders on the communication channel:

"Destroy the void shield generators first!"

After receiving the order, the space warriors did not continue to entangle with the orcs pouring out of the building, but followed the mecha tanks to rush towards the towering and conspicuous void shield generators. The shield array that can cover the entire city is extremely large. The space warriors use heavy weapons to destroy these giant bases, and the tall pillars collapse in the explosion of arcs.

As the shield generators were destroyed one after another.

The air was filled with the smell of ozone and ionization.

The light film covering the city shattered and disappeared.

The Space Marines were finally able to insert the wedge beacon.

The transmission began immediately.

The white light began to flash in the city, the terminator of the large group of iron floating slaughter abruptly appeared on the empty street, and the brief white bright lights continued to flashes one after another. More Star Warriors appeared, and the Star Warriors of other combat groups also appeared.

After the shield array was destroyed, the rest of the matter was simple. Star warriors began to clean up the whole city. Once they encountered a strong solid bunker with strong firepower, they directly called the fleet light spear to crack down.

The orc city next to Ge Garden has basically announced the fall, and the human coalition forces have successfully nailed the landing field on Ulan Nuo. The initial strategic goals have been achieved.

For this expedition, the eighteen Astatt battle regiments are the absolute main force of the human coalition forces, while the Tiefu Floating Mission is the absolute main force of the eighteen Astart team.

This time, Fu Qinghai made further improvements and upgrades to his classic Sanban ax tactics. After the joint ship group was transmitted densely, after a wave of space torpedo, the sword -tail interceptor of the Dragon Dragon Brigade flew out of the boarding deck simultaneously, and almost followed the torpedo group to enter the planet atmosphere. God was immediately attacked by a fighter aircraft, and then the sea demon raid the claws to drop the cabin.

Different from the tactics of adding fuel, each wave of attacks are intertwined and seamless. The orcs are too late to organize the effective resistance from this endless offensive. There is almost no attack interval between each attack. This saturated continuous attack is the key to the success of this landing tactic.

The fighter is behind the torpedo. This tactic seems theoretically feasible, but it is actually very difficult to operate. Because the space torpedo explosion is very large, the torpedo that exploded by the ground from the ground, and the explosion shock erupted may even devour the fighters behind. Therefore, it was a great test of the operation of the interceptor driver. The Tiefu Floating Troupe also developed this tactic after several simulation exercises.

As for the rail airborne and reaching behind the fighter gunboat, it takes a little time across the hull after the warship launch after launching the torpedo, so that the airborne cabin can launch the port to the ground.

The above is Fu Qinghai's self -summary, and for other commanders of the coalition forces, they only have one feeling:

Fast, it's too fast.

This is the consensus of the Imperial Guard, the Imperial Navy, and the Mechanical Divine Education, including other Astatt teams at the moment.

Originally, the estimation of their analysis might take a few days or even a few weeks to fight, but it was concentrated by Aoyama Khan Khan into just a few hours. Within a few hours, the landing operation was completed. Aoyama Khan really brought the war concept of "soldiers and nobles" to the extreme, shocking and impressive.

And he quickly won the city.

There is no genetic raw body for driving!

Aoyama Khan proved to people with a early landing battle. Even if there was no Walchen support, he was a well -deserved coalition commander, and no one dared to question.

Nympho

Suzheng Battleship, bridge.

"Are you ready?"

Fu Qinghai confirmed again.

"All sisters are ready."

The person who answered him this time was Fei Yi.

"very good."

Fu Qinghai nodded and turned back.

After the successful completion of the landing operation, the attack on the Ge Garden will be launched next. This is a very difficult hard bone, which may appear at least five beasts.

The quantity of silently repaired women convened by Fu Qinghai is not too much compared to the original novel Kurland, but because it takes a thousand years to prepare for a thousand years, the number of interstellar warriors he calls is far exceeding the original novels in the original novel. The number of interstellar warriors who participated in the war, more than 80 silent women, more than 20,000 Star Warriors -equal to the average of each silent repair woman to get two Star Fighter Companies as protection.

Astart's troops are too sufficient.

Never fought such a wealthy battle.

"Notify Lord Wokkan."

Fu Qinghai gets up and leaves the ship leader:

"Please go to the surface with me."

Nympho

At this time, the Wulano star track space.

The three peculiar fish bone -shaped mining ships slowly moved. They started two rows of metal "ribs" on both sides of the hull. At the same time, the operators in the mining ship took the shuttle to those who were destroyed by the Imperial Navy. Near the wreckage of the orc track defense facilities, the servants wearing the RIG protective clothing floated into the space, standing on the surface of the wreckage and starting to arrange something.

After a long time of arrangement.

The two rows of metal ribs of the fish bone -shaped mining ship shot straight blue rays, connected to the surface of the huge orc rail space station to distort the wreckage, connected to the device left by the team servants. Then, the giant wreckage of more than ten kilometers or even tens of kilometers began to move slowly.

Fu Qinghai was standing by the gallery portphill window of Suzheng at this time. He was about to take the Thunder Eagle gunboat on the surface of the planet. It happened to see this scene, so he stopped and quietly watched the three planet cracking mining vessels. Slowly pull the wreckage of the orbital facilities formed by the giant meteorite.

"It's not that orcs have gravity technology."

Fu Qinghai whispered to himself.
