"Land." Augustus opened the safety of the Gauss rifle and said on his command channel: "Surround the enemy army."
"Load the bullets and follow your commander closely."
After receiving the order, the transport ship fleet immediately divided into two teams. One part landed on the spot and blocked the Alpha Squadron's path, while the transport ship headed by the Augustus transport ship flew to the rear to block its retreat.
At this time, the camera on the bottom of the transport ship had already captured the footage of several Revolutionary Army Wraith fighter planes lowering their altitude and swooping towards the desolate canyon like a hawk. The 25mm laser cannon fired close to the ground in the darkness, and the orange-red laser beam set off
A series of sparkling explosions.
The Alpha Squadron soldiers below immediately used shoulder-mounted anti-aircraft rockets to fight back, but soon the rockets they carried were exhausted. Next, the Alpha Squadron soldiers did not try to shoot at the fighter planes thousands of feet high, but
Find cover wherever possible in the rugged canyon.
Augustus believed that Duke and his elite Alpha Squadron guardsmen were just burying their heads in the sand.
A dozen Revolutionary Army APOD transport ships sailed low over the deserted canyon, and the wakes ejected by dozens of pushing machines were like phoenix wings. This seemed like it to the Alpha Squadron soldiers who were constantly dodging the laser fire of Wraith fighter jets.
It's the god of death that's rapidly approaching.
The transport ship Augustus was on landed smoothly after a brief turbulence, landing on the sand like a feather. When he stood up with Kerrigan and Corporal Faraday beside him, the hatch was already open.
The blue signal light used for lighting is always on.
The best pilots are as important as the best spaceships. The pilots who flew the ships for the Revolutionary Marshal were of course the best pilots in Korhal. When Korhal IV was destroyed by the Federation fleet, all Korhals lost most of their
Property, class-solidified leadership problems no longer exist, the contradiction between the rich and the poor temporarily disappears, and the Keha people, driven by hatred, are united as never before.
In the process of building a new home in Umoyan, some of the former ace pilots and top engineers of Korhal's civilian interstellar airlines joined the revolutionary army and served Augustus.
As soon as he jumped off the transport ship, the alarm inside the Augustus power armor flashed red, followed closely by Corporal Faraday, followed by ghost agent Sarah Kerrigan, who closed her eyepiece as soon as she landed.
Disappeared into the darkness.
Dozens of revolutionary soldiers inside the transport ship filed down quickly but without any panic. These people were basically civilian officers, but fighting was not new to them. Every staff officer in the command headquarters had been waiting for a long time.
Passing the battlefield.
More Revolutionary Army soldiers came off other transport ships, and they brought almost all the heavy individual support weapons in the Martin Fortress armory, including rockets, 25mm Mark II rail guns and a large number of electromagnetic grenades.
.
"V-shaped formations advance alternately, flares!" Augustus gave the order on the command channel. After a few seconds, the flares raised lit up the entire canyon. Only a thousand yards away from Augustus,
The bright white power armor of Alpha Squadron is so eye-catching at the moment.
As the flares lit up, both sides immediately opened fire. The intensive sound of shooting echoed among the rock walls of the canyon, as if tens of millions of soldiers were shooting at the same time.
"He is at the end of his rope." At this moment, Kerrigan said to Augustus in the private direct communication channel: "Although I cannot feel Edmund Duke's thoughts, I can detect the thoughts of his men.
The soldier's Duke is among them. They are planning to escape, and the transport ship taking off from the capital area will come to pick them up."
"Be careful, they have two ghost agents."
"Go forward." Augustus said on the command channel: "They have psykers and are ready to use EMP weapons."
"Don't save bullets, fire all our grenades and rockets."
Augustus' troops immediately spread out in the ravine, firing as they advanced.
Kerrigan's powerful psychic power unfolded in front of Augustus and the Revolutionary Army soldiers at the front, like an invisible wall. All the bullets fired at them stopped in mid-air and fell to the ground.
At the same time, another revolutionary army army, led by a staff lieutenant colonel, came from the other direction. The surrounded Alpha Squadron had to deal with enemies from two sides, ten times their size.
Even Duke's elite guards had been fighting fiercely with the main force of Reno's Revolutionary Army in the desolate canyon for more than ten hours. The ammunition stored in the power armor shoulder pads had long been exhausted, and their firepower was at a clear disadvantage.
Many soldiers were torn to pieces by rockets capable of destroying Camorian heavy tanks, and blood spattered.
Ten minutes later, as the exchange of fire continued, the number of soldiers in Alpha Squadron became smaller and smaller, while Augustus's revolutionary army closed the encirclement.
"Edmund Duke, I'm giving you a chance to surrender." When Alpha Squadron's stronghold became noticeably thinner, Augustus said loudly using the loudspeaker device of his power armor.
"But you must cease fire first." After a few seconds, there was a response from Alpha Squadron.
"I will give you three seconds to prepare, and then we will cease fire together." At this time, Augustus was only four to five hundred horses away from Alpha Squadron, and he could see that the power armor of many Alpha Squadron soldiers was torn apart.
He opened his mouth and fell into a pool of his own blood.
There were almost no casualties on Augustus' side, and all the bullets were blocked by Kerrigan's powerful psychic energy.
"I can only surrender to your supreme commander - no fake, self-proclaimed general." About half a minute after the actual ceasefire, a rough roar came belatedly.
"For the sake of God, I am a general, and I will only surrender to your rebel leader. Let Augustus Mengsk come to see me!" Even in a desperate situation, this voice was still extremely arrogant. He
He didn't recognize Augustus's voice because he didn't believe that he would appear here at this moment.
"When did he get promoted?" Kerrigan's voice rang in Augustus' ears: "How did he get promoted to general in less than a day."
"Don't expose him for this kind of thing. Colonel Duke values face very much." Augustus replied.
"I am Augustus Mengsk." When Augustus spoke, Corporal Faraday waved his hand and blocked his face with more than a dozen soldiers from the guard battalion.
"You have no chance to negotiate terms."
Augustus knew that the way to deal with someone like Duke was to never follow him and let him become frustrated in his own world.
"Your troops have been completely lost, but my reinforcements are coming in a steady stream. Before today, you were still a federal colonel, but now you are nothing," he said.
"I give you two options, join us or devote your life to the corrupt government of the Federation. If you order the remaining Alpha Squadron soldiers and fleet to surrender, then I can give you a position."
"I am absolutely crazy to join the rebels." Duke's voice wavered - Augustus persuaded him.
