The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

When the sun rose and the morning fog dispersed, this port city in Sicily discovered the British fleet on the sea and the landing craft that had covered the sea.

The tidal flat position they had quietly captured last night with the help of the Crow Guard was located on one side of the city. It was originally an important part of the city's coastal defense system. While guarding the city's security, it was also responsible for monitoring the sea surface.

The topography of the city is a concave bay, and the original tidal flats are just the protruding part.

In order to resist attacks from the sea, the Italians built strong fortresses and forts on the protruding tidal flats of the peninsula, as well as a lighthouse that could illuminate the sea.

Originally, this position could play a good defensive role. The lighthouse could detect incoming enemies on the sea, and the fort could attack immediately and serve as the city's first line of defense.

Even if the attacking enemy bypasses this defense line and wants to attack the city directly from the other side, the fortress's artillery can cover the entire harbor bay and attack enemy ships from the side when the enemy attacks.

But the originally seemingly strong defense turned into a decoration under the sneak attack of the Raven Guard. Not only was the entire position captured, but even the defenders were not spared.

This also resulted in the attacking fleet having already entered the port and preparing to start shelling to cover the landing. People in the city would not notice their actions and the loss of the fortress.

Although this was helped by the morning fog that rose in the early morning, blocking the sight of the city and preventing them from discovering the fleet on the sea, this was enough to illustrate the success of the Raven Guard's operation last night.

However, these powerful warriors will not be needed in the upcoming landing operations.

Not only the Raven Guard, but also the veterans sent by several other chapters did not participate in this battle.

Only a light infantry company of the Krieg Death Corps was put into the landing operation as the vanguard, while an Egyptian light infantry regiment followed behind them to assist them in the battle.

A standard Krieg regiment consists of about five to ten companies, each company has two to six platoons, and a platoon has about twenty to fifty men.

According to different combat functions, they are divided into different organizations such as light infantry regiments, descending combat regiments, infantry regiments, heavy infantry regiments, mechanized infantry regiments, armored regiments, artillery regiments and siege regiments.

The nine Krieg Death Corps in Chen Mo's hands are different, and basically cover all combat functions.

What went into battle this time was a standard infantry regiment. In addition to the basic infantry, they also carried a small number of tanks, artillery and armored vehicles. However, due to the limited loading capacity of the transport ship, they did not carry those Warhammer World weapons. Original heavy equipment.

The light infantry company that entered the battle did not even carry any heavy firepower except for the basic equipment of each soldier.

But even so, when they invaded the city, the defense organized by the Italian defenders in the city was still torn apart as easily as paper in front of them.

As for the counterattack by the Italian defenders... for the soldiers of the Krieg Death Corps, it can only be regarded as scratching an itch.

After all, a standard soldier of the Krieg Death Corps, in addition to carrying a standard Lucius 8 laser gun, will also be equipped with a fragmentation grenade and an anti-armor grenade. Once an offensive breakthrough is to be carried out, , will be equipped with more grenades.

Even without heavy weapons, Krieg squads will still equip support weapons for combat under corresponding circumstances, such as melta guns, grenade launchers, and flamethrowers.

Although these things may not look much different from the products of this era in appearance, they are still essentially the black technological creations of the Warhammer world that are 40,000 years ahead of this time and space.

The power of these weapons is enough to fight against any human enemy even in the hell of Warhammer World, where monsters and monsters roam everywhere, let alone the ordinary human enemies in the 2K era that they have to face.

The bullets fired by the Italians could not even penetrate the ceramite armor worn by the Krieg soldiers.

Under such circumstances, even if the Krieger soldiers attacked and charged with an attitude of not caring about their own casualties, the Italians failed to cause any effective damage to them.

Their resistance only caused some losses to the Egyptian mortal army following the Krieg soldiers, but the losses could still only be judged to be minor.

On the battleship Warspite, perhaps because the view was better during the day, or perhaps because the battleship was close enough, Cunningham could clearly see the details of the Egyptian army's attack and actions through the gunnery mirror this time.

But this time he was not as surprised as he was with the Raven Guard. After all, although the Krieg Death Corps was powerful and elite, they were still mortals.

It's just that they have rigorous training, a fearless fighting spirit, and excellent equipment, which are enough to make them elites even in the Warhammer world.

This undoubtedly made Cunningham praise this unit greatly, even more than when he faced the Raven Guard last night.

On the one hand, this is because he has a clearer view of the actions of the Krieg Corps and has seen their combat performance with his own eyes.

On the other hand, no general can resist the temptation of having a force like the Krieg Death Corps at his command.

Imagine an elite division that is fearless of death and well-equipped, able to execute the general's orders and combat intentions with the highest efficiency and accuracy at all costs. What an ideal situation this is!

With such an army, as long as the generals have basic military literacy, not just an idiot can win the battle and become an undefeated general.

"I really don't know where His Majesty the King got these powerful soldiers! They are so perfect!" Cunningham praised enviously, and even joked to the staff beside him: "I even It feels like we are here for outings and as a transport team, and the fleet has not played any role at all.”

Despite what Cunningham said, at this time, all the warships of the British fleet, including the Warspite at his feet, were shelling the Italian city in front of them, providing sufficient fire support for the landing troops.

And this was the main reason why Krieger's soldiers did not carry heavy weapons, because they really didn't need them. The firepower output of a battleship equivalent to an artillery regiment was enough to help them knock down all obstacles.

Seeing that the landing operation was going smoothly, Cunningham asked the staff officer on the side: "Is there any news from the Glory? His Majesty the King's whimsical air raid should have started now. I really don't know if they can succeed. .”
