StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

"I never thought it would be you who came. People from the Revolutionary Army! Sons of Korhal!"

Duke's Alpha Squadron moved forward and soon dispersed the Garmu Swarm Springtails near Norman Town, opening a way for Augustus to lead to the town.

Not long after, Augustus met the Sheriff of Northam outside an old gas refining plant outside the town.

The local sheriff was wearing a set of old-fashioned CMC-200 alloy steel power armor with spots of lilac paint on it. He was wearing a P-180 pistol and an old shotgun on his shoulder.

"We happened to be nearby. Officer, what happened here, where are the federal marines?" Augustus, followed by Kerrigan and others, walked towards the small town peace officer who was conscientious of his duties. Asking a knowledgeable local helped Augustus figure out what was going on here.

At this time, behind Augustus stood a row of guard soldiers with crimson power armor and gold badges. A huge Goliath armed robot stood next to it, and the cannon under the cockpit rotated with the servo system. Sweeping through the fuchsia bushes swaying in the wind on the reddish-brown earth. The bushes here are still blooming with small pale yellow flowers, but those on the ground that are already covered by fungi have withered.

"The mayor of Ansadar transferred all the troops here to guard the city. They left us to those monsters and left the people of Norman Town to fend for themselves." A voice came from under the mask that the Sheriff was opening. sigh. A face with a bald head and long gray beard appeared in front of Augustus.

"We tried to escape into the city, but the monsters came too quickly. One day we just heard that some bug-eyed monsters attacked a self-operated mine, and the next day monsters rushed into the town and overturned trash cans and Oil drum." He looked very old, perhaps older than Augustus' grandfather.

"The police officers heard that a big dog had knocked down a child, so I rushed over with my men. I lived for more than sixty years. I saw a woman dismember her husband, and I saw the northern city-state of Antiga. A man-eating demon, but I have never seen such a half-eaten corpse full of worms.”

"We all know how scary it is that the zerg will eat people. This may not be because of hunger, but just to satisfy its primitive hunting desire." Augustus handed the Sheriff a federal land as he spoke. The team's No. 4 ration - a tasteless energy bar, but it is better at replenishing energy quickly.

The most important thing is that this number of military rations is quite hungry.

Behind the old law enforcement officer were the soldiers and militiamen of the Alpha Squadron who were retreating from the Norman town. Behind the tall soldiers were hundreds of town residents, some of whom could no longer run with their backs on their backs. of children.

When the soldiers of Alpha Squadron passed by Augustus, the dazed eyes of the rescued children hurt him deeply, which made Augustus convinced that he was doing the right thing.

"Can you still keep up with us, Sheriff?" Augustus said to the old man.

"Join us, Sheriff. Every time you kill a zerg, someone may be rescued. The Federation does not care about the life and death of the people of Antiga, and we have Augustus Mengsk's revolutionary army." Raynor smiled. , making it clear that the person in front of him was the marshal of the Kehal Revolutionary Army.

"What could be more fun than killing bugs?"

"We are joined by good people and freedom fighters," Kerrigan added.

"Of course, we have long had enough of the oppression of those federal people. As long as you give the order. Commander Mengsk, most of Antiga will rise up." The Antiga Sheriff did not eat Augustus for him. Instead, he handed the energy bar to a child walking by.

"Ever since you last defeated Alpha Squadron at Mar Sara and brought shame to the Duke family, many people here have been looking forward to your coming to Antiga one day. Now all Antiga people are looking forward to it. I hope someone can rebuild a new order and fulfill the promises that the Terran Federation has not fulfilled." He said with a smile.

"I have a bucket of red paint at home, but unfortunately I couldn't bring it out." The Sheriff pointed to the soldiers behind Augustus, and then took out a poster from the storage unit on his power armor, which read : Augustus Mengsk, the greatest Demon of Heaven, the hero of Korhal, the savior of the Tyranids!

There are a few lines of small words below, which are words that Augustus once said that the fire of revolution can start a prairie fire. There are other words that even he himself is not sure whether he said.

"This seems to be a propaganda poster drawn by people from the Pan-Terran Revolutionary Party, and it was secretly printed by the OGB in various fringe sectors. You are a celebrity now, Augustus." Renault pointed to the poster.

"The painting is really good - the shadow in the back seems to be me, and those faceless marines must be Tychus, Hank, and Lundstein."

"This is also what the people of Arcturus have been doing. My brother believes that achieving a great victory is only the first step to success. The most important thing is to publicize this matter." Augustus Take the poster from the Sheriff's hand.

"The founding family of Tarsonis controls all mainstream media, and we can only use this stupid method to promote our revolutionary ideals."

"He really loves you, Augustus." Reno was envious.

"I have a good brother." Augustus shrugged.

"As long as we occupy the broadcasting tower in Ansadar, everyone in Antiga will know that we are coming," he said.

"It would be easy to overthrow the federal government here, but I'm afraid we can't hold it."

When Augustus arrived in the Sara system, Cha Sara had almost completely fallen, and the underground of Mar Sara was almost hollowed out by the Jormungandr swarm. The zerg had just invaded Antiga not long ago. Although the federal army was almost completely wiped out, it was still delayed for a while.

"No matter what, if we see the situation is not right, we will leave immediately." Renault said.

"Go to Ansadar first, and we will take over the city first. Only by building defenses based on buildings can we save more people." Augustus said, "This time is different, the stars will help us."

". Can you hear me? I am Tychus. You have to be careful, Marshal~ We encountered the armored troops of the federal army. It seems that we are not the only army here."

"We are already outside the Ansadar XC area, but they don't seem to welcome us." At this time, Tychus's voice came from Augustus' helmet.

"I am Augustus Mengsk." Augustus turned his head and waved to the troops behind him, and the soldiers in formation immediately turned to the distant city of Ansadar.

"Tychus, it sounds like you're in trouble."

"There was a bastard who shot at me just now. According to the rules, that means I can fight back?" The sound of a laser lighter being turned on came from the other end of Tychus.

"I didn't say you can't do that." Augustus followed his team, while Renault walked with the Sheriff of Norman Town to ask what methods he had used to deal with the zerg these days.

"Kill them."

"I just like your crisp style - ah - follow me and beat them until they surrender." Immediately from the other side of the communication came Tychus' roar and chaotic gunfire, sharp and tragic The scream and the collision of heavy objects exploded in Augustus's ears, which forced him to shut down the communication with Tychus.

At this time, the revolutionary army was less than a mile away from Ansadar City. They could already see the airships hovering over the city and the rising flares. The thunderous rumbling of artillery heralded the arrival of Tychus. troops had begun engaging in combat with federal troops guarding the entrance to the city.

Attacking with Tychus this time were Harnak Hank's Red Devil Flametroopers and the Sara system militia of Mar Sara's Archon Pryor, whom Augustus had just recruited. Although these commanders have many different personalities, their attacks are all known for their swiftness and speed.

As he got closer to the city, some giant biological fossils appeared in Augustus' eyes. The bones of these sea creatures were originally buried deep underground, but were recently dug up by the zerg.

"Advance, capture Ansadar, and occupy the governor's palace." Augustus walked through a huge rib skeleton of an ancient Antican sea creature and stood a few hundred yards away from an outpost.

Next to the outpost is a wide road that leads directly to the center of Ansadar. Bunkers and fortifications are now built at the entrance, and there are barbed wire fences and minefields.

In the other direction of the city, Tychus's forces had invaded the city's neighborhoods, which obviously caused considerable chaos in the city.

"If they couldn't even deal with Tychus and the Governor's people, how could they hold on to Ansadar City for so long." Raynor said.

"Ansadar has never been fully attacked by those monsters." The Sheriff of Norman Town said: "The mayor may have claimed that the city is under siege when asking for help from the outside world, but we all know the facts. That’s not the case.”

"This is perfectly normal, and we should not expect too much from these idiots," Augustus said.

"General Duke, order our artillery to prepare to fire." Augustus said to Edmund Duke beside him.

However, just when Augustus ordered the attack, a white flag suddenly rose in the bunker.

"We surrender!" came a tired voice from the loudspeaker in the federal fortifications.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of federal soldiers emerged from bunkers, forts, and tanks, raising their hands in surrender to the Augustan troops. As long as they saw the uniforms and weapons of these soldiers, both Augustus and Reno could understand why they did not fight to the death like the resocialized soldiers.

Some of the militiamen did not even have decent powered armor, and more of them were even police officers in black cloth uniforms from the colonial police station. Among them were some citizens of Ansadar who volunteered to assist in the defense.

"They all surrendered sincerely," Kerrigan said to Augustus. "We should accept their surrender."

For a long time, the red-haired female ghost Sarah Kerrigan has been tasked with the more than twenty ghost agents in the Revolutionary Army to screen the loyalty of recruits for the recruitment department, the Revolutionary Party and the OGB. Among these ghosts are the seven ghost agents of Victor V and the dozen psykers of Alpha Squadron.

Prior to this, the Federation regarded psykers as killers and humanoid weapons, and would not allow them to be exposed to political and religious review work in the government and military, because federal officials believed that this was unnecessary and did not trust those who had been brainwashed or Powerful psykers who work for them only under duress.

And Augustus was the first to do so. But among them, only Kerrigan was trusted by Augustus the most.

"After taking over this position, continue to advance until you capture all federal officials." Augustus said.

When Augustus gave the order, the Guards Division rushed into the neighborhood with a full sprint. Unsurprisingly, the soldiers surrendered as soon as they saw the flag of the Korhal Revolutionary Army. Because they had long been dissatisfied with the federal government in Antiga.

A red Revolutionary Army flag followed a Revolutionary Army Vulture car heading into the city, and the hastily organized federal troops fled upon hearing the news.

"Isn't it a little too smooth?" Renault said: "I always feel that things are not that simple."

"Maybe it's just that the enemies we face are far less capable of fighting than Alpha Squadron and Omega Squadron." Augustus said, and under the protection of Kerrigan and others, he walked towards the bunker group built by the Federation on the road and found the military rank here. The highest federal officer - a second lieutenant who had just graduated from the military academy.

"We are looking forward to your coming day and night. The people of Antiga have endured too much oppression." The federal second lieutenant grabbed Augustus' hand.

"Marshal, I have read the book you wrote. The words in it deeply affected me: If we must do this, we can only re-establish a new order and law on the ruins of the Tyranid Federation. If The ruler of the Federation has forgotten everything he promised to the participating colonies, and it is up to me, Augustus Mengsk, to finish it."

"I'm really glad that these words can help you." Augustus glanced at Kerrigan next to him. The meaning of his eyes was obviously: I have an impression of this sentence, but when was it specifically said?

"Yes, this comes from your last speech at the graduation ceremony of the Revolutionary Army's third recruit training camp." Kerrigan nodded.

"Oh my God, you didn't really write all Augustus' words into the promotional brochure." Renault's reaction was similar to what Augustus was thinking.

"Every word of the Marshal is a wise saying." As a staunch Augustus fan, Kerrigan said with certainty.

At this moment, Augustus' power armor suddenly received a communication signal from an unknown source.

"Listen, rebels on the ground, I am Colonel Jackson Holler of the Terran Federation Nova Squadron. Put down your arms and surrender immediately, or you will have to pay for the destruction of the Federation military base."

"Damn it, if it weren't for us, the infection would definitely spread to the entire Ansadar. If you didn't come here slowly, there would be no need for us!" Renault yelled.

Thanks for voting!
