The Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 377 365. The place of decisive battle

The first batch to return to normal was the Astartes fleet. The Death Watch quickly eliminated their own faults and joined the battle. The Astartes used the powerful firepower of their warships to quickly destroy a small destroyer, and then launched a gang-hopping operation against another cruiser.

The Astartes' gang-hopping actions were much rougher than that of the Battle Sisters. The Battle Brothers used the fastest and most violent warriors to easily break through to the center of the defense line with only a dozen people. The Death Watch is a force that specializes in fighting aliens, so they have to be more professional and deadly when facing the Teclis, so that these warriors' original physical advantages cannot be used at all, and they can only face a one-sided massacre.

Since the Inquisitor already knew that the pair might face Ada before, he asked Silver Shroud, a battle sister who had also fought against the Dark Eldar, to join the battle. He also asked the Captain of the Deathwatch Fortress for the need. A watch team dedicated to dealing with Ada's battles.

Now it seems that he was not wrong. The Astartes easily killed the Perelman warriors and directly took control of the cruiser. When the Inquisitor awoke from the nightmare of being dragged from the warp, he found that his fleet was surrounded by chaos and was about to be rescued. The naval fleet immediately began to attack the empire. The navy quickly completed the formation of the fleet. It only took less than a minute to complete the rough T-line formation and began to use powerful side artillery for output.

However, when they started to counterattack, the enemy was already preparing to retreat, so there was not much result. They only caused some damage to the enemy's warships. In the end, only one frigate and one cruiser were left in the battle.

The expeditionary force is also very pessimistic. The Ecclesiarchy's battle cruiser has been almost destroyed, and more than half of the battle nuns have been lost. Most of them were sacrificed in the siege just now to deal with the enemies who jumped from the gang or were directly killed by enemy artillery. die.

Due to her injuries, the Grand Sister had to return to the state religion world early for training, and the command of the Battle Sisters was temporarily handed over to the Inquisitor. Moreover, the state religion instruments used to prevent subspace interference were dismantled by the priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus accompanying the army and placed on the Inquisitor's cruiser to prevent such attacks in the future.

The Astartes did not suffer much losses in this battle. Only one person was injured. In theory, the cruiser they captured should still be usable, because the captain of the battleship was killed before he could self-destruct. killed. However, whether to use such a battleship depends on the Inquisitor's own thoughts. After all, in a sense, this battleship is still an alien battleship, but it is also made by humans, so it still depends on the Inquisitor's own subjective judgment. .

At the same time, they also captured a large number of prisoners and learned some information after being tortured. Although the process is not smooth, there is no way for you to deal with the most powerful trial tool with your tough mouth, because it is very easy if the trial court really wants to ask something from your mouth instead of wanting you to confess.

Moreover, it is easier for the Astartes to obtain information, because during the transformation surgery, the Astartes have a surgery that can directly obtain all the memories of the enemy by eating the opponent's nerve tissue. The expedition fleet soon got what it wanted from these poor prisoners of war, and their fate would then depend on the actions of the Inquisitor.

Relston is a member of the conservative side, and he does not have as good a view on aliens as the radicals do. Those Peremans were used as consumables by him without any hesitation. It just so happened that the subspace protection equipment given to him by the nuns needed the use of psykers, which directly turned those Peremans into biological batteries to attack. Next use. Regarding the Teclis, the Inquisitor expressed sadness and anger that they were humans but associated with xenos, indicating that they would continue to serve the Imperial Expeditionary Force and the Empire in the following years to atone for their sins. However, during the Expedition, In the process, if they can prove their worth, they can still obtain the Emperor and his forgiveness and become an Imperial citizen.

Ende looked at what those mortals were doing, but hid his face under the white hood without saying a word, staring at what those people were doing with a pair of golden pupils. Rust didn't want to listen to their nonsense at all, and left the venue directly to have a drink with the battle brothers of his team.

The Battle Sister's strike cruiser must also go back for repairs immediately. Such a precious pilgrim ship cannot be abandoned like this. For the National Church, their armed forces, especially their own armed forces, are very important. Relston knew that once the cruiser was destroyed, the National Religion of the Extreme Star Territory would not say anything openly, but in his heart he would definitely write it down in his notebook.

However, compared to the possible troubles on the National Religion side, the real trouble is still in the upcoming expedition. Now, according to the intelligence, the enemy has learned about their target. That planet must have become a key defense target for the enemy. If it is attacked by force, it will definitely cause greater casualties. Just like the Battle of Daris, a lone man attacks the enemy deeply. focus on cities and planets, and then fail miserably.

Fortunately, a new coordinate system has been obtained from the previous interrogation.

In the conference hall, after the Inquisitor personally pulled back the two Death Watch captains, he placed the information copied from the enemy's brain in front of everyone. The following content will be related to the next stage of the expedition process. Everyone must be present to ensure the unity and smoothness of the next mission.

In the currently known location and combined with the information of the stargazers in the Extreme Star Region, there is another star system about 200 light years away from the enemy's main planet in the eastern capital. In this star system, there is a planet called Khar that has completed 80% of the surface hardening and urbanization.

In the traditional sense, Khar was originally a fortress planet to protect the eastern capital area, but due to the recent hearing of the arrival of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, a large number of military mobilizations have been carried out. Therefore, in a sense, that fortress world has become extremely empty.

Of course, although Khar's garrison is already very empty, it is still a fortress planet. Since it has a large number of planetary fortresses for defense, there are still many problems for the expeditionary force. But if we can occupy this place, we can defend in an area very close to the enemy's eastern capital area, directly push the gun barrel to the enemy's doorstep, and just wait for the reinforcements of the Empire to arrive and attack.

This plan was implemented after being discussed in the expeditionary council for a period of time. This plan is in line with the basic plan of the Navy, the Astra Militarum and the Sisters of Battle. For the Astartes, the glory of conquering such a fortress world is no less than conquering the enemy's capital world.

The warships are ready, and the roar of the Sea of ​​Souls in the warp once again sounded in the real universe. The expeditionary fleet decided to catch the enemy off guard. They will once again dedicate everything to the Emperor and bring glory to him in the long history of the Empire.

Just be an easter egg.
