Warhammer 40K! The Queen of Glory for Hammer Guys

"If those aliens don't give us wrong information this time, our first wave of all-out attacks will only be able to hit Balaton, but we won't be able to capture Balaton. Even if Udal and Marco are captured, they won't be stable."

At the station of the Space Wolves, Gray Hunter Gary, who had completely become friends with Gu Hun, after sending the information, determined that the next thing he would do was to wait for the meeting. There was nothing else important, so he was forced by him. Gu, who stayed to enjoy the banquet, changed his cup and changed his cup while affirming his strategic judgment. Hearing Gali's decisive tone, Gu raised his eyebrows.

"Logistical considerations?"

"Logistics is only one aspect. The biggest key issue is that no matter which world we attack first, the Chaos World that has not been attacked will definitely react - you know, the reason why those scum wanted to use a bunch of garbage servitors unscrupulously before Consuming our ammunition is essentially confirming that we are not capable of going to space. However, once we show that we are capable of returning to the universe, they will inevitably adopt targeted tactics to hinder us, despite their efforts in the Mechanicus. , but there is no doubt that it is a certain fact that we can only launch one attack in the short term.”

After saying what the hammer guys above the Queen of Glory had figured out in one breath, Gary, who was in high spirits because he had already had a big drink, ordered some drinks with his hands and drew Morton on the table. A simplified diagram of the Hess Galaxy begins further explanation.

"First of all, we are closest to Balaton, which determines that the time required for us to launch a surprise attack on Balaton will be the shortest. In any war, time is an advantage. Then, I think you also know that these three worlds All may develop into a situation that has to be solved with an extermination order. At this time, we have to consider which planet is the best solution to save if we choose one of the three. There is no doubt that while the mining world is still under our control, the foundry world From all angles, it is the best choice, and...well, it is the biggest threat that will arise when the three worlds lose control - what might happen if they lose control, Brother Gu, you should know, right?"

"certainly."

"The theoretical threat ranking of the three planets after they lose control. Judging from the current intelligence, Udal is the largest, Marko is second, and Balaton is third. However, this premise is that Balaton does not have any overly powerful weapons. Ranking, if there is something like the Titan God Machine hidden in Balaton, then the threat after Balaton completely loses control will advance to at least second place - of course, no matter how it changes, it is inevitable that the threat after Udal loses control will be the greatest The thing is, as for Marko, its threat is particularly easy to deal with. Before the Ork barbarians on it become a real phenomenon, as long as there are a few powerful enough beheading operations, the world of Marko can be basically pacified - and now those From the intelligence, Oak undoubtedly needs at least a few months to get to that point. In other words, as long as we move quickly enough, after taking any world, we can turn around and send a force to conduct rapid mobile operations against the Marko world. It’s never too late.”

After saying this, Gary poured himself another drink and his voice became muffled.

"As for the reason why I don't recommend choosing Udal as the first target even though I know that Udal is the biggest threat of losing control, it's because Udal has been controlled by the scum that fell into chaos for so long. Udal's own The value has dropped to the lowest level. Judging from experience, the mortals in that world are either dead or corrupted. If we take it back by force, we can only get an empty hive. Therefore, our current supplies can only barely be enough, and the manpower is - -Ah, I'm talking about the Astra Militarum troops - when there are not enough, attacking the Udal hive is completely thankless - if Udal has just been invaded, then I will say anything. It is recommended to keep Udal first, but..."

As if recalling something terrible, the gray hunter of the wolf group picked up the wine glass, drank a glass of wine, let out a long breath, and changed the topic.

"Gu, can you talk to that champion warrior of the Raven Guard?"

"Hmm...can you say a few words?"

“When attacking Balaton, we must immediately dismantle Balaton’s Space Bird.

The divination sensor array and the destruction of their space outposts used for air defense, and we must use stealth operations to solve the latter - I think this task will definitely fall on his shoulders, so, can you tell me, Let's just say... The Space Wolves still want to fight alongside him? "

"You want the glory of the Vanguard Army, Brother Gary."

Gu, who instantly saw what kind of medicine was being sold in the Calabash gourd, mercilessly exposed Cali's little Jiujiu. Seeing that his idea was pointed out, a slightly embarrassed smile appeared on Cali's face, which was already half-drunk. .

"According to the rules, the choice of the Vanguard will definitely be chosen from all the Astartes here - however, I will convey your request to him."

"Thank you."

Hearing that Gu agreed to his request, a satisfied expression appeared on the Gali Wolf's face. He stretched out his hand, patted Gu's shoulder armor hard, and then picked up his wine glass.

"Come on, brother, let's have another drink!"

——————————————Balaton World——————————————————————

"...."

Standing on an ancient high-altitude metal corridor, the bishop of the Dark Mechanicum who controls the world of Balaton is leaning on his scepter, leaning over, looking at the heated people below with an "indifferent face" Operation area - After confirming that the Chaos Space Marines who set off from Udal, including their men and ships, had mysteriously disappeared into the universe, he guessed that there might be something hundreds of times more troublesome than the Empire lurking in the Morton Hess galaxy. Decisively launched a series of emergency protocols, maximizing the production capacity of the entire forging world. At the same time, many evil technologies that were originally lacking in research were directly put into practice-the craziest and most representative of these heretical technologies. The thing is...

Optimization and improvement of God’s Machine.

28. Fight against Balaton - deploying troops and generals

Cautious and sneaky.

He silently touched the side of the door, then raised the chain saw glove and lightly cut open the door structure.

The moment he made sure that the surveillance system was not looking at him, he walked into the corridor and at the same time used the blind spot in the guard's perspective to kill him before he spoke.

Immediately afterwards, he quickly cut a wall panel that had no wiring inside and would not trigger an alarm. He used magnetic shoes to slide down the nearly 90-degree wall and climbed onto a thick pipe. After confirming the direction, he immediately climbed along the pipe. Climbing, along the way, I also got stuck and paralyzed several monitoring equipment, and tried my best to disguise their paralysis as an 'accident'.

Finally, he found a door for inspection and secretly opened it - and the moment he walked out, the Raven Guard appeared at the door.

"You're standing here...I failed the assessment?"

The moment he saw this elusive old champion of the Raven Guard appear in front of him, the Gray Hunter couldn't help but feel something in his heart - since this operation really had no room for error for the Empire, the Space Wolves They had no complaints at all about the fact that they had to participate in a stealth test to determine whether they were qualified to continue the stealth mission of the legendary Raven Guard veteran, but...according to Gali's knowledge, his battle brother had been killed by this Most of them were eliminated in the 'Dive Test Labyrinth' created by the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Raven Guard Champion! Is it possible for me?

"No, you passed. Your name will be on the list of the infiltration team this time, Gary Wolf. Now, go over there. The Mechanicus has already prepared the power armor for those of you who have passed the test before going into battle. Your pastor has also been waiting there for a long time in preparation for the final inspection and consecration.”

"Aha! My father is on top!"

Knowing that he was not eliminated but had truly received the honor of being a pioneer, the Galli Wolf opened his helmet and showed a 'grin' smile to the God of Choice, looking at the wild wolf without even trying to hide it. Concealing his excitement and feeling that he still couldn't keep up with the thinking circuits of the Astartes, the Chosen nodded reservedly.

"Go ahead."

——————————————The wild wolf is going to consecrate——————————————————

The craftsmen were surrounding the stage, carefully confirming whether each circuit of the power armor was functioning properly.

The servitor carries a portable incense burner and infuses it with sacred incense to dispel any presence that may be hidden in it that displeases the servitor spirit.

The mechanical priest chanted sacred passages in a low voice, and once again imprinted the mark symbolizing purity on the power armor.

The chaplain of the war group clasped his hands and said a pre-battle prayer for the brothers of the war group. The Gali Wolf, the Howling Fang of Duur, etc. passed the competition, and the Space Wolves Astartes, who had the honor of getting the first opportunity to roar out of the world of Soseki after the arrival of the Hammermen, and the Priests Kneeling on one knee, he silently prayed to the All-Father and the Primarch in his heart.

When the green light indicating that everything was normal turned on, these men of the wolf group stood up and strode towards the armor platform. With the lingering of prayers one after another, the inspection was completed and the new consecrated power armor was completed. It began to be equipped on the bodies of the Space Wolves - about three minutes later, the men of the wolf group were fully armed.

"May Om Messiah protect you."

The Mechanicus Priest chess piece, which carried out this power armor inspection and consecration for the wolf group, followed the preset settings of the egg.

After finishing everything, he immediately turned around, gave a slight salute to the Galli Wolf, and at the same time gave a very normal blessing from a motor oil guy. After hearing the priest's blessing, the Galli Wolf laughed loudly and also sent the Fenris people's praise to the Mechanicus.

"Thank you, Tech-Priest, and may the blessings of Ohm's Messiah and the wisdom of Russ guide us on the battlefield."

——————————————The dividing line among hammer guys————————————————————

"I think it might be better to go to these units?"

"No, unless you use the space vehicle of Spare Rib Bug or Bean Sprout, it will take at least two times to send these units there. This is obviously not true."

"Is that the only way to go?"

"I think it's okay. Egg, can you ask your oil man to simulate the loading conditions?"

"Okay - um, the weapon hook is a bit weak. Can you change the weapon?"

"...Sad story, the number of heavy weapons can only be cut off - so what?"

"It's no problem. Think about it. Is there anything else that can be fine-tuned?"

"Um......."

The Space Wolves were full of enthusiasm, and under the guidance of the God-chosen Raven Guard, they sat neatly in the waiting room, waiting to board the spaceship bound for the universe, and waiting for the raid that would be launched soon. , the hammer guys are on the Queen of Glory, arranging the chess pieces they will use next - according to the tactics discussed in the meeting - actually arranged by Lord Mardiush and Galli - to attack Balaton The steps for forging a world will be broken down into the following steps.

The first step is to use the electronic warfare waste code created by the Mechanicus (actually the Mechanicum and the Necrons together) to interfere with the space auspicious matrix of the Balaton Forge World towards the Soseki World, and create at least A monitoring vacuum that lasts for twelve hours - the required effect is that during these twelve hours, unless there is an extreme situation where the Balaton side happens to have space units operating in this area, the Balaton side is not allowed to get any of this. anomalies in the area.

The second step, when the first step is satisfied, is to use two Astartes formations, one light and one dark, as the vanguard to seize the Balaton world's largest space defense base station, the Astartes on the bright side. The troops boarded disposable central landing craft similar to gang-hopping torpedoes improved by the Mechanicus, and invaded in the most standard gang-hopping style. Another Astartes force was led by the God of Choice. In the first force Twenty minutes after the invasion begins, land and infiltrate directly into the command center of the defense base station. At this time, the focus of electronic warfare will change from suppressing the space auspicious matrix to interfering with the communication between the space base station and the ground. The requirement is, For at least six hours from the start of the operation, the signal from this largest defense base station was 'all normal'.

Then, came the third step. After seizing the defense base station, the empire immediately used the weapons above to destroy the auspicious matrix closest to the defense base station, completely tearing a huge rift over the world of Balaton. After the rift is indeed created, the Astartes forces will drop the maximum number of airdrop pods and vehicles that the empire can currently achieve, occupy the three selected areas, and destroy the air defenses in these areas before the Astartes forces After establishing the facility and controlling a large enough area, the Astra Militarum troops and subsequent Astartes troops will be airborne together - three o'clock blossoms, and then the center explodes!

"Speaking of which, Lord Mardiusz and Brother Gary actually believe so much in the electronic warfare technology of our Mechanicus? Logically speaking, when the opponent is a black machine oil guy, they should think that the waste code tactic is not too stable. yes?"

The political commissar sister was making final confirmation on the team of iron-hand chess pieces that she would use as the overt helpers in the second step of the battle, and arranged for them to go to the preparation location while chatting with other hammer guys - —When the combat meeting was officially opened some time ago, when I learned from the egg that the Mechanicus had confidence in its waste code electronic warfare technology, the Gali Wolf immediately agreed to such a radical combat policy, and was beaten by the hammer guys. Lord Mardiush, who used the Astartes chess piece to give him the right to speak to the Astartes in this war meeting, did not object to this war plan - this is a bit incredible in the eyes of the Hammermen. .

"After all, Gary's original idea was to infiltrate and seize the important space base station in the world of Balaton by force. In his eyes, the waste code electronic warfare is better, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't have it. Think about it. Also, with the space ships we have now, it is simply a dream to run over them openly, unless we have a way to send the battle barge that Big E asked us to use for an emergency landing back to the sky."

"Indeed, what the egg said was simply taken as a bait by Brother Gary - after he proposed this tactic openly, he turned around and asked to team up with the God of Choice to play infiltration - eh, seriously , taking them to fight this vanguard is actually a lot of risk. Who knows what the hell those black machine oil guys stuffed into that important space base station. Although the Astartes are superhuman warriors, in this fucking universe, They are just a little stronger.”

"For the Astartes, glory is far higher than life - especially the matter of backhandedly triggering the first round of attacks by the Empire to regain a galaxy, and the matter of being the vanguard of the five founding regiments. It is simply glorious. There's no limit - if I don't give a reason not to take them with me, I think these wolf gang guys will keep this matter in their minds for decades or even hundreds of years - besides, I also promised him

If I reject the wolf group without saying anything, he will most likely think that I am a person who does not keep my promise. "

"So is this the reason why you suggested that the God of Choice and the Oil Man Chessman conduct a infiltration assessment together?"

"Well, in fact, judging from the setting, we have already raised the difficulty level. We have no reason to reject the brothers of the wolf group who can pass in this way. The brothers of the wolf group who are brushed off in this way will not complain - not necessarily, I I think they will go back to practice stealth... Such is the character of the Astartes."

"...I hope they won't go to the Crow King's family to learn how to sneak."

"Probably... no way? Although the Wolf Group can sometimes be a little bit like the Huskies, they are still a start-up group and have made achievements in this area, so it won't be a problem."

During the endless discussions among the hammer guys, one after another, the troops composed of chess projections completed their preparations one by one, and arrived at the launch site in a neat array. At this moment, the star belonging to Soseki has risen. The light has begun to shine on the space center where everything is ready - the spacecraft is all ready, and the chess pieces of the Mechanicum are making final preparations.

——The countdown to the outbreak of the empire’s anger has begun, and the world of Balaton will experience it in the near future——

What is the wrath of the Emperor.

29. Fight against Balaton - gang-hopping invasion

Open your eyes at 6 o'clock on time in Terra.

Complete the rising prayer within 3 minutes after opening your eyes.

After finishing the prayer, rush to the work place within ten minutes, replace the person from the previous shift, and then link yourself to the device.

Start collecting information from the high-altitude auspicious array that your team is responsible for until the replacement arrives.

This is a daily cycle.

When Balaton was under the control of the empire, Dike's daily work was like this. After Balaton changed his master, Dike simply swore allegiance to the new master, and his daily work was still the same - of course, Dike himself It doesn't matter. After all, as a member of the Forging World, his life has already been defined. If someone moves him away from the center of the auspicious array, Dyke may still be at a loss. After all, all the knowledge Dyke has learned is... It is for the auspicious array service. The implants in Dyke's body are all implanted for this job. If he can no longer work here, where else can he go?

Of course, although Dyke doesn't mind the daily cycle of work, Dyke himself does not have any complaints about his current job - as a member of the high-altitude bird fortune teller team, one of the biggest headaches for Dyke now is how to The targets that really need attention are separated from the targets that may cause auspicious alarms but actually pose no threat - before, there were space birds among the four worlds of the entire Morton Hess system and some space stations. Using the Divination Network Protocol, after discovering the target, it is easy to determine what the incoming thing is by combining the data from each bird. But now? Now that the apocalypse agreement has effectively ended?

He might even 'recognize' a passing meteorite that contains some special materials as a high-speed spacecraft!

"When will my job return to its original ease? When will the new owner take over the entire Morton Hess galaxy and rebuild the Oriole Agreement?"

With this thought in mind, Dyke sat firmly in his seat and casually clicked on a signal that still showed the characteristics of a passing meteorite after confirming it twice - this kind of invalid signal would never let Dyke. They linger because they take up the resources of the auspicious array, making it harder to detect problematic signals.

Then, the day that I was accustomed to began again.

——————————————In space————————————————————

Balaton 1 space station.

When the world of Balaton began to be built as a forge world, this space station was established in space at the same time. As it is located in a very special position on the Balaton gravitational circle, this space station has always been responsible for It is responsible for Balaton's largest star port, Balaton's largest defense base station, and even Balaton's largest space manufacturing center. Therefore, after the Dark Mechanicus seized control of the world of Balaton, they immediately used forbidden technologies to carry out a series of additional modifications to the Balaton-1 space station, making it according to the aesthetics and needs of the Dark Mechanicus. Completely transformed into a new space fortress - a dark palace where blasphemy reigns. The shameful traitors walk in the space station that has fallen into darkness, willing to sacrifice their lives for their new masters in order to gain the right to live, or something more ambitious.

But...what these betrayers don't know is that the moment they choose to betray, their ending is already doomed...

"boom!!!!"

This thing hit the outer ring wall of the Balaton-1 space station, causing a huge concussive echo.

"Tap-tap-tap-"

This was the sound of the Iron Hands Astartes stepping off the ship in unison.

"Boom————"

This was the sound of the Iron Hands Astartes in the front row raising their shields.

"Pound - pound - pound -"

This is the sound of the Astartes firing, and what follows these sounds is the screams of the traitors, as the metal walls are shattered, or the pipelines are blown, or the lines

The sound of tearing leakage!

"Alert—alert—highest level alert—"

"The outer ring area was attacked by a gang of Imperial Astartes troops - repeat - the outer ring area was attacked by a gang of Imperial Astartes troops -!"

"Seal areas C to F immediately!"

"All defense forces must gather immediately and head to the outer ring area!"

"Activate emergency authorization protocols..."

Riding on a ship that had been transformed by the Oil Man's chess pieces into a completely super-large model of jumping torpedoes, what was originally a medium-sized shuttle roughly tore apart its own body the moment it approached the space station. Camouflaged, overloaded its own engine, and crashed into the outer ring area of ​​the Balaton 1 space station at lightning speed. After being deeply embedded into the body of the space station, the entire Balaton 1 The space station was instantly filled with all kinds of alarms and sounds of activating protocols - thanks to the operating logic of the Dark Mechanicus that is similar to that of the Mechanicus, even if it encountered such an unprepared attack, the space station was only busy for three minutes. In less than ten seconds, an orderly counterattack plan was put into operation - not limited to sealing off the combat area, gathering defense forces, releasing combat servitors to hinder the advancement of the Astartes who jumped to gangs, and activating all self-disciplined counterattack equipment along the way. ——Of course, this also includes the accountability of the astrology team on the ground. What did those guys eat? How come such a big jump gang boat rushed over without even noticing?

As a result, a minute later, Qi Qilong, the traitor who currently holds the highest power in the space station, was "very happy" to find that the communication between himself and the ground had turned into something completely wrong? I am clearly asking the space auspicious team responsible for my area on the ground to report. I also want a auspicious report from today to now. How come I get the feedback that everything is normal?

‘All communication lines have been invaded by useless codes, and regular communications between us and the ground have been completely paralyzed. ’

After this ridiculous thing was repeated several times in the next minute, Chichiron already understood what happened to his space station, and also realized that his space station encountered such a number of Astartes elites. The small team jumping into gangs to fight is most likely the beginning of a major counterattack by the empire. After quickly conducting several rounds of logical reasoning in his mind, the traitor accurately concluded what he should do most at the moment.

That is, use all the resources of the space station to annihilate the imperial invasion force that has definitely not yet gained a foothold at all costs. The empire must not be allowed to take back the Balaton 1 space station, because once such a thing happens, it means——

A large area of ​​the Balaton world will be completely undefended from the air! And the empire can throw whatever it wants at Balaton in this area!

"My guards, gather around me immediately, target area, outer ring combat area."

He made the decision to fight with all his strength, and knew that in this situation where the space station system was likely to encounter more waste code attacks at any time, Qi Qilong, who would most likely waste time by squatting in the central area to command, did not waste any more time. After he gathered his personal guards around him, he rushed to the front line without any delay, preparing to personally command the space station's defense forces to fight back against the empire. At this moment, he was only a few steps away from the first Iron Hand chess piece. Exactly twenty minutes had passed since we entered the space station.

"...."

Since the eyes of all the defense forces in the Balaton 1 space station are almost attracted by the iron-handed elite jumping gang team that is advancing little by little, and many system protocols of the Balaton 1 space station are being Waste code torture. Therefore, no one in this space station could notice that in the silent space, another aircraft was already silently attached to the backlit side of the Balaton 1 space station. An Astartes warrior from the Raven Guard, and several Astartes warriors from the Space Wolves, had already 'slid' into the belly of the space station lightly and sharply without triggering any alarms. '. Monthly fee group 694936135

And the direction they are heading to is clearly——

The hub of Balaton 1.

30. Battle against Balaton - Iron Storm

As a being who has begun to sublimate into a machine, have I already said goodbye to the weak emotions of flesh and blood creatures? Should I be able to easily think about problems with all kinds of logical and calm thinking?

Before today, these problems were not a problem at all for the technical heretic Father Ayers. But now, Father Els, who is commanding his Skitarii to fight the Astartes in front of him, already feels that the answer to this question has changed——

"Maintain the line, don't retreat - no, no, no - leave the servitors to defend against the enemy and delay the time. The Skitarii will gather around me and cover my retreat to the next area - no, no, no -"

Looking at the Iron Hands Astartes who were slowly advancing in the distance, looking at the skitarii array information that was the same as his own that had been erased piece by piece on the screen in front of him, he had already calculated that he Father Els, who had absolutely no way of resisting these powerful superhuman warriors with the few troops he had, clearly realized that his logic chip was falling into chaos little by little, and his main circuits were being overloaded and driven into madness little by little. . And the root of all this is because
