The cultists did not expect that the Death Army would appear from the flanks. At least half of them were bitten before they could retreat to their starting point. They tried to resist on the spot, but what greeted them was Krieg's well-trained volleys and intensive attacks.
Laser rain.
In an instant, rows of cultists fell to the ground with scorching bloody holes on their bodies.
The standard weapon of Krieg soldiers is the Lucius model No. 98 laser gun. This laser gun is a single-shot weapon and is powerful. However, the rechargeable battery can only supply 25 shots for the weapon and needs to be replaced frequently. At the same time, each time
Charging also takes longer.
But the Krieg soldiers are more terrifying than just the laser guns in their hands.
"Wow!!"
A cultist swung a mace made of iron chains and iron rods at a Krieg. The opponent flexibly smashed it open with the handle of his gun, and then quickly pulled out an engineer shovel from his back with his free left hand.
, with a violent wave.
The cultist's face, which was covered with tattoos, was soon split into two parts at the chin, and he fell down with a shocked expression.
Scenes like this continue to take place everywhere. The hand-to-hand combat capabilities of the Krieg soldiers are among the best among the Astra Militarum. After approaching the cultists, they quickly eliminate the enemies with bayonets and engineer shovels, and then continue to charge.
The Kadian 99th Regiment also organized an offensive formation and began to attack the enemy's ambush position.
Only then did Colonel Acat discover that the enemy had built horseshoe-shaped trenches in hidden areas and deployed a considerable amount of heavy firepower.
Fierce firepower hit the Chimera's bulletproof panels. In the mud, fragments of the damaged bulletproof panels were flying everywhere. Colonel Acat hurriedly retracted from the gun position to the cabin - his command vehicle had been scrapped, so he was transferred.
Arrived at the passenger car.
Krieger's soldiers rushed into the large hole in the damaged bulletproof plate and fired at a certain rhythm, knocking the enemy down in the trench.
Soon, these corpses were piled up to block the large damaged hole.
The noise of the battle was deafening, and there were echoes in the sky, as loud as thunder.
Colonel Acat couldn't tell for a moment whether it was the artillery fire or the storm that was shaking the earth.
After arriving at the front line of the enemy's position, Colonel Acat learned his lesson, got out of the car, and prepared to conduct command on foot.
At this time, a Chaos soldier who was originally knocked down and thought to be dead suddenly stood up and crawled over the sandbag towards Colonel Acat.
His chest was blown open, blood was dripping from the exposed tissues and ribs, and his ferocious face was covered with fangs.
After seeing Colonel Acat, he howled and rushed forward brandishing a machete.
Colonel Acat was dazzled by the dazzling firelight, and did not even notice the enemy so close at hand. But at the critical moment, a Krieg soldier rushed over and fired fiercely at the sneak attack cultist, killing the chaotic bastard.
Knock.
Colonel Acat turned his head, not knowing how close he was to death.
He met the Krieg soldier's eyes, but could not see the face under the gas mask at all. The empty eyepiece made him shudder, and he even doubted that there was a human being of flesh and blood under the gray military coat.
Or a walking corpse?
The Krieg soldiers looked at him for three seconds, then turned around and continued charging.
"A bunch of weird guys..."
Colonel Acat wiped the blood from his face and picked up the binoculars.
There are still many dark shadows crawling in the trench, which obviously indicates something: even the murderous gun cannot kill these people contaminated by Chaos at once. Many people who have been knocked down are still far from dead, and they are slowing down.
Get up slowly and start attacking again.
"With grenades!"
Colonel Acat shouted over the communication line, and the soldiers took out grenades and threw them over the front and into the trench.
The shock wave generated by the explosion stirred up a large amount of mud and bulletproof plate fragments, and also shocked all the cultists still inside.
"Watch the trenches! They won't die that easily."
After the ambush position was breached, Chaos soldiers began to gather in the nearby hills. Due to the assistance of Chaos Space Marines, not even the Krieg soldiers rushed forward this time.
"Basilizard Squad! Give me a base!"
But attacking fortresses was exactly what the Qadians and Kriegs were best at. Colonel Acat immediately organized the firepower on hand to bombard the enemy strongholds.
The Basilisk is also the most famous and most numerous artillery in the Astra Militarum. It is based on the chassis of the Chimera armored vehicle and is equipped with an earth-shaking cannon for direct or indirect fire, which is enough to destroy most ground fortifications.
Along with the roar of the Basilisk Earthshaker Cannon, plumes of smoke rose from the enemy's position, and large amounts of soil and flesh fragments were thrown into the sky.
But the enemy's counterattack also followed, also with artillery fire and the roar of the demon engine.
"What is that..."
Colonel Acat stared blankly at what appeared in the distance.
It is as big as an Emperor's Baneblade and is a complete four-legged beast, like a fusion of a bloodthirsty hound and an angry bull. It is covered in layered black heavy armor and has a pair of demons on its drooping head.
Its eyes were shining, and its huge mouthpart was like a cannon barrel. A roaring mass of metal and flames could be seen inside, with thick steel tendrils wrapped around it.
And the thick arms on both sides of its body are equipped with two huge rotating cannons.
If there is a judge from the Demon Tribunal present, his name will definitely be called.
Furnace Goblin.
This demonic engine was originally designed to spread death among enemy troops from a long distance. Its huge body carries a pair of Chthon automatic cannons. This rotating multi-barreled artillery allows them to harvest enemy troops with almost contemptuous ease.
Large groups of infantry and even light vehicles.
When a daemon engine is forged in a fortress within the warp, a portion of the warp flames will be transferred to the core of the engine. This sulfur-smelling furnace will power the engine's mechanical actions and also burn harmful
Energy is poured into the enemy, so what flies out of the furnace ghost's muzzle is not an ordinary bullet, but a red-hot phosphor shell, which is extruded from twisted and twisted steel cables. It will also explode violently inside.
Stir and turn.
So, when the beast roared and fired at the 99th Regiment's armored lines, disaster occurred.
The Chimera's armor was unable to withstand the firepower of the Chthon automatic cannon and disintegrated and exploded one after another. However, the cannons they carried were unable to cause substantial damage to the huge demon engine.
Seeing that the team lost seven or eight armored vehicles in a very short period of time, Colonel Acat was a little shaken. He wanted to suspend the attack and call for air support.
but--
"Ah, these lunatics!"
Suddenly, Colonel Acat heard the sound of neat footsteps. He turned his head and found that the Kriegs had already lined up and charged towards the enemy.
This is almost tantamount to suicide.
The enemy's light and heavy firepower tilted down, and many Kriegs fell to the ground as soon as they took two steps, but those behind them passed over the corpses of their comrades and continued to advance silently.
"Crazy, crazy!"
Colonel Acat violently pulled his hat off his head and threw it to the ground, then roared, and then hit the sandbag hard.
"We can't let these living dead underestimate us!! Cardians! Attack immediately! One after another, prepare the demolition hand! I have to gnaw that monster down with my teeth!!"
