509.The Scorpion Campaign
After all the calculations, in the end, for Istta's potential, maybe it is something that the Kanta Empire has not calculated, right?
Just imagine, if it weren't for Ishtarblast's ability, what would have been the effect if the rift of the dimensional weapon had been allowed to extend?
It can be imagined here that the Tyranid Empire will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and may lose its vitality and thus lose the ability to strategically attack.
The Kanta Empire will gain more precious time, and with the help of the Haiji civilization and the Sid civilization, this war will inevitably start in a good direction!
It's just a pity that even if I didn't expect it here, there would be such a change. Not only did it fail to achieve the desired goal, but it provoked a bad star.
The Tyranid Empire has inherited the science and technology of the Federation, and the folding technology at the core of the warship engine, but it is much stronger than the Kanta Empire. Needless to say, the result of this pursuit battle must have been to chase after the back of the Kanta Imperial fleet.
The commander of the Kanta Empire tried to carry out counterattacks several times, but the morale of the whole army was low, and all of them were forced to declare defeat. The old general had no choice but to order a few partial divisions to be responsible for intercepting after the break. But it is a pity that after the news of the rout of the Central Route Army was spread. Originally, the other two route armies, and the Kanta Imperial troops, which were still fighting well, suddenly chose to retreat immediately to avoid being abandoned as an outcast.
In this way, all the elites of the Tyranid Empire were able to gather, and the troops left behind by the Kanta Empire were only after a fierce attack. The commander of the Kanta Empire, who stayed behind, knew that he could not stop the fierce attack of the Tyranid Empire, so he had to surrender to the Tyranid Empire in order to survive.
Although it is said that the use of dimensional weapons by the Kanta Empire makes Ista hate to death. But the psychology is also clear that the key is to hunt down the defeated army now and achieve a real victory. So a force was left behind, and after accepting the captives who surrendered, the main force still pursued non-stop.
In this way, in other words, the troops left behind by the Kanta Empire did not have any effect.
The Imperial Fleet of Kanta.
The old general sat in his place and behaved very sadly, because such a result was completely unexpected. Or maybe it was because of his underestimation of the Tyranid Empire that led to the failure of this battle plan!
He felt guilty in his heart, whether it was for His Majesty the Emperor, for the whole country, or for the dead soldiers, there was a deep uneasiness and pain in his heart.
"Marshal!?" The adjutant general ran over again, looking at the old general's deep brows, he hesitated for a moment before saying: "His Majesty the Emperor already knows the news of the defeat in the battle at the front, and he is now thundering and wants to have a direct conversation with you." ”
Alas, good things don't go out and evil things go thousands of miles, and the old general must know that this news will not be delayed for too long. But I didn't expect the emperor to get the news so quickly? It seems that in his own army, there are already people installed by the emperor, right?
There's no way, things should come or come, this time the battle failed, I'm afraid I can't escape the blame. The old general paused silently, and then connected the communication. As soon as the message was received, the voice of the Emperor of Horus came: "Marshal Gran, do you have any opinion on this battle?" ”
It is obvious that there is something in the words, and Horus did not blame him directly, because he is an old general after all, and he still has to give the necessary face. And he should have known the ins and outs of the battle, knowing that the old general had done his best.
However, the defeat of this battle was the loss of the Kanta Empire, and the last assembled regular army troops. However, this battle not only did not achieve the desired results, but on the contrary, it suffered numerous casualties. The old general of this responsibility must not be able to escape, and this black cauldron cannot be carried by Horus.
The old general knew that he was guilty, but here he still said: "Although the Tyranid Empire has not been born for a long time, there are quite a few intriguing places. ”
Horus pondered for a moment, thinking that he must have heard the report as well, and said, "I know what you said, but this is not a reason why you can be exempt from punishment. You should know very well that this should have been used as a finale card for our country, a bargaining chip for the Tyranid Empire. Now you look at this problem, what should be done! ”
This is already a very amiable word, as a strategic-level weapon, it is undoubtedly the hole card of the finale. But when it is used on the battlefield, this is after all to show that the skin should be torn.
The use of strategic weapons such as dimensional weapons has killed so many people in the Tyranid Empire? This is bound to anger the Tyranid Empire. If you want to sit down and negotiate in the future, it will probably become very difficult, and maybe because of this matter, a lion will have to open his mouth.
The old general lived for such an age, even if he was known for being a pure soldier, but he was well aware of the political problems. If the circumstances of the war change, maybe you will still become a scapegoat!
Of course, relying on his historical military exploits and Seth's performance during the usurpation of the throne, Horus would not move him easily. said, "What are you going to do now?" I know that the Tyranid Empire is chasing you, and that the forces that remain behind will only surrender in the wind. ”
The most important thing to do now is to stabilize the position, the old general based on this idea, said: "General Sewell, is a wizard of soldiers, very insightful in counterattack tactics, I want him to be the commander of the rear 6th Army, with the help of several planets to build a line of defense." The old minister personally sat in the rear, supported General Sewell, and collected scattered troops, and at the same time temporarily recruited strong men and people with military experience to fill the troops consumed by the war. ”
Hearing the plan that the old general said, Horus thought for a while, and then nodded clearly: "Okay, I can authorize you the right to recruit troops, but you must block the army of the Tyranid Empire for me!" ”
Horus did not mention the punishment for the time being, because now is not the time, and the old general is also needed to resist the offensive of the Tyranid Empire. If he can block the enemy's invasion, he can make up for it.
Finally, before hanging up the communication, Horus said to the old general: "The survival of the empire depends on your shoulders, I will give you the greatest support, but I hope you can stop the enemy's attack!" Do you understand? ”
[What Horus said, he claimed that he should be called "I", and it looks like he will write a history essay in the future. 】
