The Protoss in Warhammer

Chapter 150 142. Slowing down the attack

Matteo showed a shocked expression after hearing the message from the third captain. Although they had lost a large number of troops in the previous battle, including dozens of fighting brothers, it was unacceptable that the other side was unscathed in the short time since they entered the venue, losing six precious angels because of those damned Templars.

You know, even if those howling banshees and assault scorpions launched an attack and took away the lives of a large number of brothers, they could not retreat unscathed, and at least they would have to pay twice the casualties.

"Tell me about the battle in detail."

The third captain heard the cold voice of the chapter leader, organized his words and began to tell what happened.

12 minutes ago, 46 ​​Astartes of the third company were clearing possible resistance forces in a ruin under the leadership of the captain. Although the powerful armored forces can destroy the orderly resistance of those damned aliens, there are still a small number of civilians and soldiers who are still advancing in the ruins. In most cases, the Astartes don't actually need to come to the front line, because the invader warband's fighting method is to bombard and then use mortal auxiliary legions to sweep.

At the same time, this time the mysterious Cursed Legion suddenly appeared out of thin air and helped them, otherwise they would definitely not be able to successfully eliminate those damned Aida in such a short time.

The captain, wearing an ancient Mark 3 power armor, looked at the rubble in front of him and thought to himself:

At this rate, it is estimated that it will only take half a day... no, it will even take only three hours to completely destroy this evil alien world that has destroyed several planets.

When the war is completely over, the Astartes will return to their world with honor and glory. Perhaps after this great victory, the high lords of Terra will agree to replenish a batch of new gene seeds. And the alien technology collected in this battle can also be directly traded with some forging worlds in exchange for some equipment.

Just as he was imagining how much benefit the future warband would gain from this action, a brother not far away suddenly fell down silently.

Before a sergeant next to him could react, his head protected by Mark Qian's helmet was cut off by the curved blade and turned twice in the air.

Two brothers were lost in a short period of time. After a brief shock, the third captain quickly reacted and shouted in the helmet communication

"There is an enemy stealth unit! Fire graphite smoke and black stone powder!"

In order to deal with enemy stealth units, the Empire's most commonly used countermeasures are black stone powder and graphite powder. The former can suppress psychic stealth, while the latter can have a strong impact on optical stealth.

Four smoke bombs flashed forward quickly, and after a crisp explosion, the mysterious enemy finally appeared.

Although the dark stealth will not be detected by the black stone powder, their psychic shield has been broken. The outline of the green shield has begun to appear, and with a little bit of snowflake-like flickering, the Space Marines discovered those elusive people.

The outline of the enemy looks like a group of tall and hunchbacked creatures, like a group of chicken thieves with gray skin and no shells. However, they were wearing some rather worn robes, holding an unknown plasma melee weapon in their hands, staring at them intently, ready to start the next round of attack at any time.

Without any hesitation, the captain raised the plasma pistol in his hand and ordered loudly

"All personnel open fire immediately!! Kill those despicable aliens!"

The Astartes raised their weapons and started shooting at an astonishing speed. Although these supermen already had unparalleled speed, they were still clumsy in the eyes of the elite Dark Templar. However, these Dark Templars did not dare to get too close. Although the Astartes' movements seemed extremely slow to them, their psychic shields had been destroyed by the black stone powder, so now they did not have the courage to use their bodies to receive a 25mm caliber bomb.

Seeing that those despicable aliens were forced to stay away by their dense firepower, the third captain immediately discovered the weakness of these aliens, and they could not fight in close combat. In this case, shorten the encirclement and trap the enemy here to death!

"All personnel, pay attention to the ammunition! Batch change, compress the enemy's living space, in the name of the Emperor! Purify the aliens!"

The Dark Templars were forced back to a corner by them, and could only swing their bodies faster to avoid being shot. But just when the third captain thought you were about to arrive, dense plasma suddenly shot out from both sides of the battle line, quickly hitting those unprepared Space Marines.

The photon turret has a good effect in such a ruin. Those poor Space Marines were too focused on the enemy in front of them and neglected that they had come to a complex terrain, so they were attacked like this.

The heavy plasma that was enough to penetrate the front armor of the tank quickly knocked down three Space Marines, and the third captain quickly realized that he had fallen into a trap.

In this case, if it were an ordinary mortal army, it would have been in chaos, but the Astartes did not. Under such a sudden attack, they still quickly raised the grenade launchers in their hands and quickly destroyed two photon turrets through bursts.

Under the destruction of powerful kinetic energy weapons, the photon turret, which was as beautiful as a work of art, was quickly destroyed, and the hot plasma solution also exploded. The fragments attacked them like frag grenades, but they were blocked by the thick ceramic steel. However, when they reacted again, the enemies they had suppressed had disappeared. And they have lost six brothers.

After saying all this, the third company commander said guiltily

"I have done everything wrong, Chapter Master, and I am willing to accept any punishment."

Mateo Bruscagin nodded calmly after hearing this and said

"You do deserve to be punished, but this is what a Chapter Chaplain should do. What you have to do now is like a warrior, using the blood of the enemy to wash away your shame."

After hearing the words of the Chapter Leader, San Li lowered his head silently, and then hung up the communication.

After silently listening to the Astartes report, the representatives of the Inquisition quickly searched with their own servo skulls and came to a conclusion.

"The opponent is likely to be a high-level enemy special operations unit called the Dark Templar. If they exist, it means that the opponent has senior officials. If the third company commander encounters them, it means that the opponent's command and combat system may be there. nearby."

After saying that, the inquisitor with a mountainous beard glanced at the Astartes who were eager to try and said

"But I do not suggest that we attack immediately, my lords."

Although he wanted to avenge his brother, Mateo did not lose his mind. He nodded and agreed with the judge

"Yes, if there are high-level enemy units, it means that the number of their soldiers is not too small. So we must slow down the pace of the attack and think carefully before attacking further."

"Of course, we can also wait for the help of the Cursed Legion, but this will still take some time.

So the best way now is to pause our offense. "

After listening to the words of the Inquisitor representative and the Invader Chapter Leader, the Lord Commander also understood what he should do.

"All troops, this is the general headquarters, execute plan B, slow down the pace of attack, and advance step by step!"
