Chapter 427
"It's the industrial world."

After some careful research, Fu Qinghai chose an industrial world that had just fallen and was still in flames of war, and named it "Dehe No. [-]".

The first step of the battle plan: preset the battlefield!

"What's so special about this industrial world?"

Joe Star asked puzzled.

The first company commander took a closer look, no matter the orbital defense facilities or the surface defense facilities, there is almost no difference between the industrial world of Dehe [-] and other planets in the Dehe galaxy, compared with the other thirteen industrial worlds.

"This planet has seas, vast oceans."

Fu Qinghai narrowed his eyes slightly and said.

"ocean?"

Moon Wolf Warrior frowned.

"Yes, the ocean that buried the traitor titans."

Fu Qinghai nodded.

Industrial worlds are factory worlds where entire planets are dedicated to manufacturing or mining.Because the vast majority of labor is performed by machines, the industrial world is usually sparsely populated.

While the Industrial World may maintain ties to the Adeptus Mechanicus, such as the model of the Nederlina Subsector - the Industrial World serves as the source of raw materials for the Forge World.However, the industrial world is not directly under the jurisdiction of the Mechanicus, and the governance authority of the industrial world belongs to the planetary governor appointed by Terra.In addition, the technology and production capacity of the foundry world are usually greater than that of the industrial world, because the former has more scientific research power.

"Target Industrial World of Dehe No. [-], let's go!"

Fu Qinghai ordered.

……

Fort Yachts was burned.

The capital of the industrial world of Deuce IV.

In the southern area of ​​the peninsula port, raging flames were burning.The paneled crystal windows of sheds and warehouses were blackened and cracked.The heavy iron door collapsed with a dull sound, leaving a dilapidated, empty doorway filled with smoke.

Charred bodies and charred vehicles clog the rubble-strewn streets, and the vast majority of the dead were killed days before the fires arrived, but only now have they been cremated with "dignity".The pale plastic-steel lifting machinery was melted in the high temperature, and with a painful groan, it collapsed and poured into the polluted Larkesh Sea.

The promethium refinery on the headland was easily destroyed in a fierce battle between the Loyalist Titan Legion and the Traitor Titan Legion.And so the fire began to spread, igniting the wharf slums and gnawing their way north.

Fort Yakers was once a dirty industrial and trading stronghold, a transfer station and distribution center. As the evil beliefs in the dark spread and spread-this is often the prelude to the invasion of Chaos, it became a city full of heretics and mutants. fortress.Then, as expected, the fleet of the Dark Mechanicus descended here, Yakzburg turned into Shura Hell, and the madmen who believed in Chaos finally completely occupied the city.

Then there was a carnival.

An orgy of killing, sadism and plunder.

Although the fire never stopped and was still raging across the port, it did not affect the fanaticism of the followers of Chaos in the slightest. Black figures crouched on the roof, shuttled between the weathered sheds, and even stood in front of the flames.

Some of them were hunched, twisted creatures wrapped in impenetrable rags, others were ex-Planetary Defense Force soldiers.Their faces were covered with dirt and blood, and their carapaces were stained and riddled with bullets.

The distorted black machine oil guy is directing the machine servants to carry supplies. They are watching the carnival of the chaotic believers in the city. As long as they don't disturb themselves to plunder the resource reserves in the industrial world, these gangs of different evil gods and the dark machine god Teaching is barely the same camp.

"Kill! Chop! Burn!"

Some people are burning, killing and looting, aiming butcher knives and guns at the remaining civilians or other gangs.

"Smash it, smash it!"

Someone is tearing and burning the Imperial Aquila banners, and smearing blood on the statues of the Crusade Saints, symbols of the existence of the government of Terra, by raging flames.They gathered together, pulled the rope, chanted, and booed loudly:
"One, two, three, pull!"

"boom!"

On the square in front of the Governor's Mansion, the giant stone sculptures that symbolized the human empire and the Mechanicus, collapsed and shattered into several pieces, filled with smoke and dust, the cultists laughed loudly, stomped and stabbed these stones in a venting style, and then took off The trousers pissed against the stone, and the yellow urine slid down the eye sockets of the skull sculpture.

The flame has not been extinguished.These traitors raised their heads, faced the flying ash and thick smog, and howled loudly to the sky to show their resistance.

For them, the greatest misfortune.

It was the sky that responded.

……

Scorching energy stabs down from the clouds.

Penetrating through the thick lead cloud composed of burning embers and toxic smog, the golden light spread all over the earth, instantly vaporizing the carnival crowd.Anyone who dares to look directly at this golden beam of light will suffer from pain and tears, and instantly lose their sight. There is only whiteness left in their vision. Even the mechanical prosthetic eye is also overheated and overloaded, and wisps of white smoke emerge from the eye sockets.

Since the first golden light came down.

One after another, the thick clouds were fragmented among the golden beams of light. The dark technology heretics and twisted machine servants who were busy transporting supplies disappeared in the golden light before they even had time to hide in the bunker.

Immediately after the pillar of light that descended from the sky like divine punishment.

It is a meteor shower that has drawn across the arc.

"Boom-boom!!!"

The soil splashed everywhere, the gravel exploded, and the airborne pod hit the ground hard, with the end half submerged in the ground.

"Tch-crack!"

White steam gushes out, and the hydraulic cranks snap.

The eight hatches slammed open and smashed into the ground and embedded in the soil. Black-gold space fighters armed with pulse bolters and fat man launchers rushed out along the steel steps outside the hatches, before the Chaos believers could get out of the light spear strikes. When they came back to their senses, the blind cultists were instantly pierced and exploded by the electromagnetically accelerated bombs, exploding into blood droplets and broken bones.

"Jiu—"

The red thin line beam flashed, a black machine oil guy just poked out his hood from the ruins, and was immediately hit by the thin red line, spewing slag, black ash and flames from the breathing valve of the twisted mask, hugged his body and began to roll , together with the black burqa, turned into a tumbling human-shaped flame.

Joe Star put down the explosive assault gun.

Look around at the burning ruins of the street.

"Purge the city completely!"

The first company commander raised one arm high and roared loudly:

"Hurry up! We only have less than twenty hours to build a city line of defense, a line of defense that can stop the Titan Legion for 15 minutes!"

According to the plan, the interstellar warriors of the Iron Buddha Chapter need to clear all the remnants of Chaos forces in Fort Yaxas as soon as possible, and then use less than a standard Terra day to rely on these urban buildings to strengthen the original defense facilities and build A line of defense.And the requirements of this line of defense are:
Can withstand a Titan army for 15 minutes.

The Titan Legion is a battle fleet on land. It is extremely difficult to use a ruined city to resist a Titan Legion for 15 minutes. Faced with this strict requirement, Qiao Shida has no idea, but he believes that his soldiers can complete it.

This kind of work should be left to the Imperial Fists.

Joe Star pursed his lips, thinking to himself.

Although we don't have Imperial Fists...

But we have the Iron Warriors.

Thinking of this, the first company commander turned his head to look, and saw the last space soldier coming out of each airborne pod one after another. Their power packs were larger, and there was an additional aiming aid installed on the side of the helmet eyepiece, following their steps Walking out of the hatch, four or five mechanical arms spread out like an octopus behind.

The regiment's technical sergeants are all dispatched.

The first batch of interstellar fighters who arrived on the surface in the airborne capsule quickly cleared the area around the Governor's Mansion. They quickly cleared the ground in the square in front of the Governor's Mansion, and then six Thunderhawk gunboats landed here, and the belly hatch opened. The rumble of armored tracks, Spartans, Mastodons, Predators, Land Raiders...

Six Thunderhawk gunboats kept going back and forth between the orbit and the surface, transporting the armored vehicles of the Chapter, and soon, the only armored company of the Chapter, the "Advanced Battalion", was deployed.

There are also many construction machinery.

It didn't take long for the space fighters to clean up the Chaos believers in the entire Fort Yachts, as well as those black machine oil guys who came to plunder resources, the chickens and dogs were vulnerable.Then, according to local conditions, they began to arrange city defense facilities, tried to repair the land-based macro artillery and void shield generators that were damaged in previous wars, dug some tunnels, set up some roadblocks, and set up traps using gates, bridges and water channels...

These gadgets are almost difficult to cause damage to the Titan Legion, but their purpose is not to rely on these fortifications to kill the Titan Legion, but to delay the time as much as possible.

The second step of the battle plan: lead the snake out of the hole.

……

Hive world of Xeros II.

In the outer space of the planet, very far away from the orbital defense facilities, there are fleets belonging to the rebels moored, including the Chaos cruiser fleet that came to support, and the transport fleet of the rebellious Lord Titan Legion.

They have surrounded the hive.

Originally, the rebels were already ready to attack this hive world, but the sudden reinforcements from the sub-sector of Nidelina - an Astartes battle group fleet, made them temporarily slow down their attack on the hive world. pace.

Get ready to see what the warband has in mind.

Originally, according to the estimation of the rebels, this battle group must have come to rescue the imperial army trapped in the hive world. They have made sufficient preparations and concentrated all their forces to deploy around the hive world, waiting for the opponent to arrive.

In the sub-star area of ​​Ni De Lena, the rebel army has formed a local force advantage. Under this situation, one side is trapped in the hive world, the other side surrounds the hive world, and the other side tries to come to the rescue. If they fight well, they can form "Cooperate from the inside to the outside", if you don't play well, it becomes "surrounding the spot to fight for aid".Generally speaking, because of the superiority in military strength, both the naval power and the army power are much more than the imperial army, so the rebels are not in a hurry, and are ready to wait for the Astartes battle group to come to their door and send the nest All worlds are eaten with the battleband fleet.

However, what they didn't expect was that the Astartes battle group didn't come to rescue the hive world, but found an industrial world by themselves, and after quickly regaining that industrial world, they began to strengthen the defense on the spot, posing Standing firm and taking advantage of the rebel forces concentrating around the hive world, this fleet began to harass other industrial worlds that had already fallen into the hands of the rebels, preventing them from plundering and transporting resources...but they just didn't fight the main force of the rebels .

What is this behavior?
Do nothing?

The commander of the Chaos Fleet, Sotan Wal Braun, analyzed the current situation and was very puzzled.

Don't they worry that after the fall of the Hive Capital World, they will also eat them by turning their troops around?

Thorn was a warsmith nicknamed "The Forged Stone" who was a member of the No.40 Fifth Battalion of the Iron Warriors during the Great Crusade and the Great Heresy.He is a master of civil engineering, and his understanding of rock materials is so deep that it is rumored that he can talk to stones, let rocks tell him everything and become geological wonders under his tools.

From the perspective of the war blacksmith, since the other party does not plan to join forces, it is simple. He uses the advantage of troops to defeat them one by one. First, he will eat up the imperial army in the hive world, and then go to kill the Astartes. Wargroup, this is the safest way, and it is also in line with the Iron Lord Perturabo's war philosophy - to concentrate superior forces to overwhelm the enemy.

However, what he did not expect was that the representatives of the Dark Mechanicus raised very fierce objections.

They said that the resources in the Eye of Terror are extremely scarce, and the various foundry worlds under the Dark Mechanicus are all opening their mouths wide open, plundering the rich resources in the sub-star region of Ni De Lena, which is the most important thing in this operation. The main purpose is not to kill the lackeys and loyal servants of the false emperor.

The war blacksmith was suddenly caught in a dilemma.

As a senior officer of the Chaos Space Marines, he wanted to make great achievements in battle. He wanted to humiliate the lackeys of the false emperor to please the four gods of Chaos, but he had to take into account the opinions of the Dark Mechanicus—because the other party controlled the Titan Legion.

If the black machine oil guy doesn't cooperate, if the Titan Legion is removed, the overwhelming ground military power will no longer exist.Besides, if you want to develop in the Eye of Terror for a long time in the future, it is very necessary to have a good relationship with the Dark Mechanicus. Otherwise, where do weapons, vehicles and battleships come from?It can't always be generated out of thin air.

"Tsk...that's a lot to ask for."

Suotang frowned secretly.

I feel that serving the Lord of Steel is not as troublesome as serving these black machine oil guys, pointing fingers all day long.

If the rebels give up encircling the Hive World to deal with the Astartes battle group, it is obviously inappropriate, because in this way, the Imperial Navy, Titan Legion and Imperial Guard in the Hive World will all run away, then One side is just an insignificant battle group fleet, and this side is a coalition of three entire armies. The war blacksmith can clearly distinguish which is more important.

"Then divide the troops."

The war blacksmith thought for a moment and said:
"They seem to be building fortifications... Hmph, building fortifications in front of the Titan Legion is really beyond their capabilities. Send some unruly lord Titans to deal with them, and I will send out three strike cruisers to cover the landing of the Titan Legion."

The layout was completed, but a sense of uneasiness still lingered in the heart of the war blacksmith. After thinking about it, Suotang added:
"The plundering knights of House Vixtris, with the untamed lord Titan Legion, headed for Dehe IV."

"Yes, my lord."

The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength.A Legion of Titans and a family of Knights against an Astartes Chapter, no matter what tricks you have, the warsmith thought, in the face of absolute power, it is impossible to make any waves.

Two transport cruisers of the Titan Legion plus three regular cruisers of the Chaos Fleet, five battleships, for three strike cruisers led by a battle barge, do not have an overwhelming advantage in naval warfare, but covering the landing of the Titan Legion on the surface is Enough, because other warships will continue to besiege the hive world, and the Titan Legion will decide the outcome on the ground.

Plan pass!
The warsmith compromised.

The black machine oil guy is satisfied.

The Renegade Titans finished their rectification, and the fallen knights lined up to go. Five warships broke away from the encirclement and quickly sailed to the Dehe galaxy, preparing to completely wipe out the overwhelmed Astartes battle group and let them have a minimum of respect for the gods.

……

The Industrial World of Deuce IV.

On the coast of the narrow peninsula, Fort Yaxz, the technical sergeants of the battle group are still in full swing to strengthen the defense facilities of the entire city. Far away from here, two imperial transport ships have docked at the coast at some point.

The two behemoths slipped quietly into the ocean called "Larkesh" along the hatch opened at the stern, and the waves and waves filled with highly toxic chemicals were turbulent and undulating, and the behemoths disappeared into the ocean. .
