Warhammer: I am the Hammer of the Empire

Chapter 78: The stalemate persists, the Black Heart King launches orbital bombing, and the outcome of the Skadi Fourth Infantry Regiment...

What is fear and what is not morale? For space warriors, these things do not need to be considered, but it has become a fatal problem. Their former courage disappeared in the haze of the jungle. The Vietnam War PDTS, whether the ancient Terran people This is how the state of the Ruming Chaos Space Marines is called.

The mortals of the 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment are destined to spend the rest of their lives holding Chaos outside the dense forest, making it impossible for them to leave their camp. When any cubic meter outside the wall is full of danger, even if it is not possible for the Space Marines to come. Said, the nature of that matter has also changed.

They have less than a hundred people, while the Astra Militarum has tens of thousands. Even if the team can kill a hundred forest soldiers at once, the death of one brother will not be the loss of the war, they cannot consume it.

The powerful Space Marines of Ming Dynasty were actually surrounded by mortals and unable to move. When the Space Marines were given power by the God-Emperor, they may have never suffered such humiliation.

Superman realizes how close death is to them. If they are loyal space warriors, they can easily muster their courage, but if they are chaos space warriors, they are greedy for power and fun. The flames of resistance need to be dissipated instantly by the volleys of veterans in the dark.

But is victory so close to the Astra Militarum? Without long-range artillery strikes, no orbital advantage, and no Imperial Navy support, the loyal 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment was unable to advance and destroy the enemy.

Huge losses could not kill those Chaos traitors. Even if the veterans desperately longed for victory and the death of the traitors, Alan Bair never dared to gamble on victory with the emperor's currency.

If the Black-Hearted King no longer dares to deploy troops in that world and allows his already stretched remnants to be wiped out in that world, he should no longer bother the soldiers. Ruming only has two choices for the Black-Hearted King...

retreat and bombing

Alan Bair wanted it, and King Blackheart also wanted it. The disgusting traitor battleship of the Ghost of Destruction was there, and the tyrant's claws were trembling. He felt his brothers die, and their souls set off ripples in the subspace.

The mortals there exceeded his expectations time and time again. Is it because the forest is not helping them with the will of that world, or is it the so-called God Emperor?

Huron couldn't understand where the strength of those Imperial Guards came from, but his rich tactical experience told him that if he wanted to occupy that world, he would have to die.

"How is the status of the light spear and Hong Pao?"

Valtex, the dimensional blacksmith, respectfully answers his master. "You can launch it anytime, anywhere, my lord."

The Black-Hearted King thought about what he saw from the auspicious detector and the optical detector, the continuous and graceful forest. The environment there was very similar to Terra, almost the same, except for the weird magnetic field and the density of the forest. He didn't want to use a chisel to make scars on the few gems in the galaxy that made the world worse, but the will of that world was always working against him.

Does she feel that malice does not mean treating all life equally? Huron wasn't sure, but the spears and cannons would be enough to turn that world's continents into scorched earth. "Overload the void shield, withstand the enemy's anti-orbital bombing, and enter low-Earth orbit."

Valtex answered without hesitation. "No, his lord."

Huron continued. "Activate the two Land Marauders left in the east, deploy them by airdrop from the vehicle according to the target, contact the ground troops, and conduct a cleaning operation after the bombing."

"The gods of subspace are here, and that world will definitely become theirs..."

The body of the Ghost of Destruction gradually moves eastward. The huge hull made of Adamantium alloy, ceramite, and adamantine can even be seen with the naked eye from the ground. The orbital bombardment makes it appear at an oblique angle in the void, and the star of that world is The border army knew nothing.

The violent cannon fire raised a smoke that was thirty meters high, and the light spear directly carbonized the liquid into crystals. Such attacks were like raindrops falling to the east, rushing through the forest. Alan Bayer felt like the hot wind was paving the way. Is that the wailing of that world?

They maintained the magnetic field stability of the Lingke shock despite orbital bombing, and also allowed Alan Bair to contact Karu City, which is dozens of kilometers away from the source.

He ordered to Karoo City.

"In the name of Lieutenant Colonel of the Fourth Infantry Regiment of Kadis, Minister of Justice of Gondwa VI, and Chief of Staff of PDF, he ordered all PDF in Karu City!"

"Get the TM anti-orbital light spear ready! The God-Emperor is here, and those traitors can't afford to play any more!"

A violent counterattack erupted in the center of Karu City. The Bordero, which was barely able to fire in the sky at the star port, also sprayed flames. The firepower hit the void shield, creating a shocking wave.

The Black Heart King felt violent tremors, and he was dazzling. "Ground troops, rely on the ground cleared by the light spear to move forward and clear the enemy!"

The spear of light turned the forest beyond the range of mortals into a crystal plain, and like a sharp blade cut through Gondwa VI's emerald-green skin, revealing a wound on the east side, a wound like clean red quartz.

The Chaos Space Marines are well organized, relying on the Land Raider, a crawling tracked armored vehicle with almost impenetrable armor, two coupled deflagration ray cannons, and multi-tube melta as the main cannon, with powerful firepower. At the same time, it can be used as a cover to move forward, adapting to the terrifying surface environments of many worlds. The scarlet paint and the red pirate logo, the mortal heads and flesh, make the disloyal thing look even more disgusting.

Those two Chaos Space Marine variants, Rand's obviously modified for ground invasion and anti-infantry suppression, were shaped from birth to slaughter their fellow humans. The disgusting traitor machine spirit let out a terrible roar and stepped across. ground.

Veengar was very satisfied with the two terrible things. The forest that blocked their progress was even more dissipated. The spears of light were shining on the ground, the cannons opened the way for them, the war burned the world, and countless creatures died.

The moisture of the hot wind turned into the smell of coke, the green forest vehicles turned into scorched earth, the roar of the Land Raider's engine made people tremble even more, and the Astra Militarum's spy in the forest was just a sentence on the radio.

"Two traitor vehicles!" They disappeared in the east of the vaporizing light spear, and their souls returned to the throne.

retreat? How to retreat? Can my human legs outrun a light spear?

Fight back? How to fight back? The void shield of the Chaos warship can last for who knows how long, but it only takes a few minutes for the forest to be burned down to the ground.

But allowing the notorious Red Pirates to use such tactics, the Skadi 4th Infantry Regiment was defeated with honor.

When the scorching light spears strafed the land and the heavy steps of the Chaos Space Marines passed through the territory that once belonged to the 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment, Alan Bair was completely helpless.

He walked on the ground, watching the light beam like divine punishment gradually approaching. It was heroic, beautiful, and indescribably beautiful. It took people 40,000 years to make such a thing and kill it. other people.

From the primitive man who picked up the first polished rock in the Stone Age, to bronzes, irons, flintlocks, muskets, automatic guns, iron, gold, lead bullets, black powder, to the Ming promethium, ceramic steel , Monomolecular, Destruction Stand and Light Spear.

People have changed but have not changed. Alan Bair was filled with emotion, but he was still the commander of the 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment and a soldier of the emperor. He stood up and faced all the loyalists.

"They lost, but they did not lose to the traitors, but to that dark universe. Although that world was helping them, the God Emperor was helping them, Karu City and hundreds of millions of empire citizens were helping them. them."

"But in that damn world, in that endless void, everyone is an enemy of the Empire. Without the orcs, come the traitors. What comes after the traitors? Eldar pirates? Tau merchants?"

"He must admit that they cannot achieve complete victory, everything is unpredictable, and the Emperor's protection allows them to go until tomorrow. Otherwise, he will feel uncomfortable if that beautiful world is handed over to the Chaos traitors who do not cherish her at all. ”

"If his legs and arms touch the battleship in the void, even if his firearms are useless, he will fire without hesitation, if his death can bring the death of the empire's enemies."

"But they have not completely failed. Karu City is not without defense forces. Even if there is no fourth Skadi regiment in that world, there will be a fifth regiment, a 72nd regiment, a 237th regiment, and countless descendants of the emperor will drive away those Group of things.”

"Then everyone, open your backpacks. There is no need to leave any supplies behind. The light spear will be burned in a few minutes. Remember to eat quickly."

"Brothers, veterans, do we remember to leave letters to our families? Remember to tell them how to distribute their inheritance? Don't ask them to starve. We also hope that the emperor can allow the Ministry of Government to truthfully distribute the rations to the children of the martyrs."

"That's wrong. He doesn't want us to be a war couple. Zhongsi Academy is actually not a good place. The staff can use it as a reference."

As soon as Alan Bayer walked eastward, there were a few Chimera armored vehicles left in the fourth regiment. After all, the ground was full of dead branches and leaves, so it was pretty clean there.

The staff officer walked next to Alan Bair and nodded to the soldiers. "He admitted that the place was terrible."

John Deen came over, waving his legs and saying dissatisfiedly. "Ah, boss, it feels so bad to lose like that. He would rather be shot by the orcs. It's so hard to eat the canned food without adding some meat."

Alan Bair cursed. "It's good to have meat. If you complain so much, you won't be so talkative when you see me eating starch!"

John Dehn replied. "Boss, he can't help but wonder if this is his last meal..."

The ensign listened and complained. "So what, he probably won't live to be 25 in the hive city, but he will be 26 next year, ha, he is very rich, he has made money, Lord Planetary Governor, forgive his rudeness, you have got too much, You can’t let go!”

John Dehn nodded. "No, his wife, his world, his factory, his political achievements, there are many good and bad things like Chengdong."

The staff officer also said. "His travels to Terra, his trade in Valhalla, and his work with Kane's advisor must also come to an end..."

"Emperor, he shouldn't write a retirement application..."

Alan Bair suddenly lost his position. "Ugh, how long have we been dragging those bastards out there?"

John Dehn replied. "According to his memory, half a year, right? That means it starts from about two months to a month after the Lieutenant General left."

Alan Bayer said again. "How many traitors have they killed?"

The staff officer replied. "124 people, not counting those loyal former servants, Space Marines, 124 people, enough for each of their officers to get a Star of Terra badge."

"Haha, I couldn't get it when I asked for it before. Ruming, my legs are weak when I take it!"

Alan asked again. "How many brothers they left behind."

the lieutenant replied. "Twenty thousand people, to be precise, twenty-four thousand people. Basically all of them are recruits, or his colleagues in Skadi PDF, although they are not residents of a hive city."

"In less than half a year, two-thirds of it has left. He is very lucky to think so!"

Alan Bair will say it again. "So did they lose?"

The three of them answered in unison. "If you lose my MB, you will become the emperor!" They raised the military kettles in their legs, and if there was no alcohol in them, they took a swig.

It seemed that they were not walking in front of the Chimera, nor were there fierce spear bombardments next to them, but in the tavern in the hive, a group of officers complained about the miserable fighting situation.

But if they can be considered in dire straits, then the empire probably doesn't have real troops anymore.

The spear of light was gradually approaching, but the fourth regiment seemed to be having a drinking party. They had always regarded death as home, so why not replace them with the enemy, making the soldiers feel unhappy.

If there was any hope, they would make those Chaos traitors tremble in fear!

In the first moments of the burning light, the loyalists of the Empire raised their glasses and sang hymns to the Emperor. "If his heart is filled with oil, his soul will surely return to the void. You are good, you are beautiful, you shine on all the worlds, thousands of people in the empire, and billions of human souls."

'The light is always there, may the throne be immortal, and may the evil be broken. If you wake up in the first month, the traitors will die in shame, the demons and gods will be afraid, and the loyal ones will live forever! "

"No, Emperor! No, Empire!"

In the East of Light, the initial singing ended, and the Skadi Fourth Infantry Regiment returned to the throne...

?

In the first second, a strong bombardment penetrated the void shield of the Ghost of Destruction, and several void torpedoes hit the weapon system of the Chaos battleship, almost smashing the battleship in low earth orbit into the gravity of the planet.

King Blackheart shouted. "Full speed climb!"

Then ask. "Who attacked?!"

Dimensional blacksmith Valtex shouted. "His master, two Cobra-class Imperial destroyers hit the other ship's weapons with torpedoes, and the light spear array on the right side facing the ground was paralyzed!"

The Black-Hearted King slapped the blacksmith away and turned on the auspicious instrument himself. He looked at the data on the screen.

"The Imperial Moon-class strike cruiser, two destroyers...why did the Imperial Navy discover them?"

"Inform the ground troops to retreat. The Destruction Ghost starts the subspace engine. When the ground troops return, they will force an emergency subspace jump!"

The dimensional blacksmith said incredulously. "Sir, even if they don't, they still won't be able to stabilize in the chaotic flow of subspace. If they are unlucky, what awaits them will be death in subspace! Or they will get lost endlessly in it!"

The Black Heart King pinched the Dimensional Blacksmith's throat that was making the annoying sound. "hurry up!"

On the ground, Wengar watched the transport ship land and cursed secretly, because he no longer dared to face the Skadi 4th Infantry Regiment. Even if there was no honor, he still hoped to kill him in that operation. That troop!

And when all the Space Marine brothers were walking on the transport ship, Veengar looked at the emerald green land, and he secretly swore that one day, he would gain the honor he had lost in his mortal life.

The Ruming 4th Infantry Regiment of Skadi looked at each other in confusion. The veterans looked at the recruits, and the recruits looked at the commander. The commander, Alan Beyer, pinched the radio and cursed.

"He attacked me! Why did he come to support me?"

The lieutenant general was holding the radio on the battleship and scolding him back. He had already learned about the great actions of the Skadi Fourth Infantry Regiment through communications with Karoo City, such as beating the notorious Red Pirates out of ammunition and food.

he cursed. "I'm here, wait! Wait for him to go east and apply for a Terra Star badge for each of our officers. What we are doing is outrageous!"

I really want to eat fried chicken (meaningless muttering)

Ah, commissar, he expressed no opinion, he is serving, my lord!

political commissar:

\u0026amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;Remember: Only heretics have doubts

\u0026amp;amp;amp;amp;gt;A closed heart is a loyal heart. A loyal heart is a happy heart.
