Chapter 156: Mission is more important than life, mission is above all else

The Emperor Titan is a huge mobile fortress equipped with an arsenal of firepower that can cover all areas of target, and will increase in power as the target gets closer.

As the most beloved war machine of the Abomination, the Abomination's firepower is even more powerful than that of the average Emperor-level Titan. The firepower of one Abomination is enough to overwhelm the entire battlefield.

In this case, the Astral Army, not to mention blocking the progress of this terrorist force, even crossed the river with mud bodhisattvas - it was difficult to protect itself.

But the artificial star must not be lost, otherwise the dozen or so defense zones that have lost their energy supply will be very likely to be broken through by the abusive side. And since the abusive side can know the location of an artificial star, it is possible to know more.

Once a dozen defense zones are breached, and the Fear Abuse advances to other artificial star positions, then the Astral Army will have dozens or even hundreds of defense zones and be in danger.

Since the Abomination was located behind the Astral Army's defensive lines, it was difficult for the large number of defensive weapons deployed on the front line to attack it. It would take a long time for the Astral Army to break through its defenses with its existing firepower alone.

Before that happens, the Horrible Force will rush to the location of the artificial star and destroy it.

"There are no sacrifices that are too big to accept."

Sidney, the commander-in-chief of the Astral Army, said silently in his mind.

The advance of this abusive force must be stopped. And to stop it, the Abomination must be destroyed.

"Attention units, I am the commander-in-chief, Field Marshal Sidney. The battleships of the Imperial Navy will be orbitally bombarded by the enemy Emperor-class Titans in ten minutes. During this time, do whatever it takes! Stop it from leaving the current area! Sidney ordered, his voice ringing through the Astral Army's tactical visors on the battlefield.

Attacks on the ground can't destroy the Abomination in a short period of time, so can it still block attacks from the sky?

After receiving orders from the commander-in-chief, the Astral Army on the battlefield all launched a charge against the Abomination.

It's a death charge, and the Astral Army is trading their lives for time.

They are the elite gathered from the countless soldiers of the empire, who have been selected through layers of selection, the real elite. But once the empire needed it, they did not hesitate to put their lives on the line. The mission is more important than life, and the mission is above all else.

One by one, the Astral Army soldiers burst out of cover, their feet galloping towards the Abomination, or driving through the battlefield in a variety of transport vehicles.

The current situation of the Astral Army here is extremely dangerous, and their danger comes not only from the artillery fire of the terrorist side, but also from the artillery fire of the Imperial Navy.

Although the Empire currently possesses orbital bombardment technology that is accurate to the centimeter, it has not yet been promoted. The Empire has not yet begun to build new types of warships in large numbers, and it has not yet popularized extremely accurate orbital bombing weapons.

At this time, the space warships of the Imperial Navy, although equipped with a new fire control system, were able to deal with such issues as the display of the battlefield situation, the formulation of battle plans, the identification and selection of targets, the distribution of firepower, fire control, the determination of ammunition consumption, the evaluation of shooting effectiveness, the management of communications, and the processing of information.

At the same time, the computing power of the newly installed quantum computer far exceeds that of the contemplative on the ships of the previous empire. The accuracy of orbital bombing weapons has been greatly improved.

However, given the performance of the weapon itself, the deviation of orbital bombardment still hovers between a few meters and several hundred meters. If the situation is not good, then it is not impossible that the impact point deviates several kilometers from the target.

Therefore, orbital bombardment can easily injure friendly troops by mistake. This is also the reason why the commander of the Imperial Navy did not agree to the Astral Force Commander Sidney's request for orbital bombardment at the beginning.

Originally, the Imperial Navy didn't care about the casualties of the Astral Army, but Sivir repeatedly ordered that the current Imperial Navy would not dare to easily ignore the casualties of the Astral Army, so as not to anger the Regent.

On the ground, the Abomination was being charged from all sides, and various artillery pieces were supporting it in the distance. The Astral Army didn't care about any casualties, the only thing they had to do was hold back the Abomination.

But countless demonic armies intercepted the astral army's advance, forbidding them from approaching the Abomination. There is not one soldier in the Astral Army who can come to the Abomination.

The rest of the Astral Army soldiers either fell in the way of the charge, or fought the demons that stood in their way, carving out a safe path for their comrades.

An Astral Army soldier fell to his knees in front of a bloodletter, screaming. But the bloodletter lowered his body and slashed the soldier's neck with his sword.

The demon lowered his sword, reached out and grabbed the dying man from the ground, then ripped off his helmet. The demon lifted his victim up and splattered the blood of the soldiers on his face.

Blood flowed down his face in a thick stream, and the bloodletter threw his head back and opened his mouth to fill his throat with life-giving fluid.

The death toll of the Astral Army has been rising, but a good army has always been able to carry out orders with determination and meticulousness despite continuous losses.

While countless Astral Army soldiers have stopped demons for their comrades, many Astral Army have already come to the feet of the Abomination.

"I am the commander of the defense zone, and I am speaking to all the infantry units. Everyone sprang into action and immediately launched a gang siege. Repeat: Siege of the Abomination. Remember, we're going to stop it from leaving. ”

The muzzle of the Abomination grew lower and lower, and it was forced to aim down at the ground. But its weapons were now aimed at its own feet. If the Abomination were to fire now and destroy the Astral Army soldiers beneath its feet, its own legs would be destroyed along with the Astral Army.

The firepower of the Emperor Titans is unmatched, and they can only stampede enemies at close range. Even though the Abomination was equipped with some melee weapons that were rare on Emperor-class Titans, the weapons were too large and the Astral Army was too small. These anti-Titan melee weapons are not very effective at destroying infantry units.

The Astral Troopers approaching the Abomination began to climb upwards from the Abomination's legs through their hook or magnet devices.

The Abomination still tried to turn around and use its artillery to resist the Astral Army. But everyone can see that this is essentially a desperate futility. The Abomination is now like an elephant crawling with ants crawling all over it.

It was only a matter of time before the elephant was burrowed into the body by ants and bitten to death.

But those Sadistic Archdemons and some other Calamity Lord Titans disagreed. The Abomination stood in place, and the forces of the other Horror Side began to approach him, beginning to clean up the Abomination of the Abomination's Astral Army soldiers.

Ten minutes passed in a flash, and the Imperial Navy warships in space had arrived at their designated positions, and the orbital strike weapons were ready.

"Attack!"

The Tactical Armor of the Astral Force soldiers located within the orbital strike area have dangerous red warning signs displayed on their visors.

"The orbital strike on the way is approaching you! Stay away from the Abomination! ”

The Astral Army that received the order showed a cruel smile under their visors. Even when they were within the range of an orbital strike, they had no fear. Rather, I was excited to be able to destroy the war machine of this formidable enemy beneath me.

An Astral Army, who had climbed to the abomination's shoulder with its hook claw, yelled excitedly at the war machine beneath him:

"Are you ready for the so-called Judgment Day, man?"

The Abomination angrily waved several "arms" extending from her left shoulder. The pincers, hammers, and chainsaw swords on it danced aggressively.

"Haha!"

The Astral Army soldier laughed, left a timed hot melt bomb on the Abomination's shoulder, and jumped straight behind the Abomination. The powered jetpack behind it spews gas several times in the air to slow down.

"Bang"

There was a loud thud on the Abomination's shoulder. By this time, the soldier's feet had fallen heavily to the ground, but through the deceleration of the power pack and the support of the power exoskeleton, he was not seriously injured. Seconds after landing, it's time to stride out of the place of death.

A Sadistic Archdemon has carved a bloody path through the Astral Army, his blade soaked in blood. But he was also scarred. This time it was not a simple slaughter like his previous battles with the Astral Army, but a slightly more difficult battle.

But the Archdemon of Sadism prefers such a slightly difficult war, and he revels in the slaughter. As he slaughtered, he felt the satisfaction surging in his blood. His senses contracted until he could see nothing but arterial spray, until he could hear nothing but the sound of broken bones.

Flapping its wings, the Sadistic Demon charged through the dust and smoke of the battlefield with a terrifying battle cry.

With a single blow of his magic sword, he severed the head of an astral army. Then he kicked another soldier in the guts, piercing him in the abdomen and shattering his spine. He kills anything within his reach equally and justly.

The only fly in the ointment was that there were no fearful faces surrounding him, no screaming, and no begging for mercy.

He roared with terrible desire, tore the body in half, and raised his sword aloft. His senses screamed at him, every nerve filled with a thirst for more blood.

Just as he was about to find his next target, a streamer approached him at breakneck speed.

"Boom"

The orbital strike of the Imperial Navy has arrived.

Countless artillery fires raining from the sky brought death to the area like meteor showers.

Most of the attacks were successful in hitting the Abomination, which was the primary target. The Abomination seemed to let out a roar of filial piety, but it paled in comparison to the explosion of countless shells bombarding its body.

The flames of the Astral Army's lasers and explosive bombs shone on the Abomination's Void Shield, and the Astral Army's firepower was so powerful that the Abomination's Void Shield was on fire.

Flames washed over the tormented shield of energy, the impact of the bomb and the light of the explosion blending with each other, bathing the entire Void Shield barrier in orange flames.

But I don't know if it was the previous fire attack of the Astral Army that had already turned the Abomination's Void Shield into a strong bow, or if the Imperial Navy's orbital bombardment was too powerful, and the first orbital bombardment shell that touched the Abomination broke the Abomination's Void Shield.

Without the protection of the Void Shield, the Astral Army's fire attacks and subsequent orbital bombardment ammunition can directly attack the Abomination's mech.

An approaching orbital bombardment shell slammed into the Abomination's leg, destroying the Abomination's knee in the explosion of sparks. Before the Abomination could react, another cannonball fell from the sky.

The Abomination was hit on the side by the blow, more warning lights came on, and many of the systems on the war machine began to fail.

The Abomination struggled to keep its balance, but the exterior gyroscope was smashed. And incandescent flames erupted from the weapon, and the explosive cannonballs fired by the Astral Army fired at close range hit his already wounded leg.

The joints exploded, and molten metal flowed like mercury into the legs of the war machine. The mighty war machine fell to one side, and then fell limply to the ground.

The Abomination's heavy fall caused its metal structure to creak in protest, and the Abomination's servos were running at full strength to get back on their feet.

But he could only lie on the ground, angrily sweeping slowly across the surrounding area with his cannon and slashing across the ground with his melee weapon. His weapon fired with an earth-shattering sound that rattled the teeth of every warrior present.

The Abomination lying on the ground could only watch as the cannonballs in the sky came at him, whistling through the Abomination's belly and tearing through the armor of the behemoth.

The Emperor-class Titan's reactor is buried deep in its belly, and if the orbital bombardment shells can gouge through enough armor to expose the Abomination's reactor, the Astral Army alone will be able to do the rest.

But the Abomination wasn't so lucky, and after his belly armor was gouged through, another railbombing shell hit him in the abdomen, directly destroying the reactor that powered him.

It also caused an unusually spectacular explosion, the explosion was so loud and loud that the hearts of everyone around it felt like they had been hit with a hammer. Those who were so close to the Abomination were even stunned or even killed.

The Astral Army was thrilled to witness this, and the morale of the Torture Party was dealt a heavy blow. After a brief moment of excitement, the commander of the Astral Army immediately began to direct his soldiers to attack the abusive side.

Although the orbital bombardment destroyed an Emperor-class Titan in a short period of time, and the number of demons and chaos warriors who died from the orbital bombardment was quite high, the number of casualties of the Astral Army was also somewhat unacceptable.

They did not die on the way to the charge, not under the attack of the enemy, but died under the artillery fire of their own comrades.

The Tactical Armor of the Astral Army has been connected to the Internet and can monitor the vital signs of the Astral Army in real time, so Sidney, the commander-in-chief of the Astral Army, can roughly deduce the number of casualties of the Astral Army based on the data transmitted by the Tactical Mask and the missing Tactical Mask.

Under his command, a Chaos Emperor-class Titan was destroyed, but it was difficult to recall joy in his heart. He will report the entire battle to the regent Sivir in detail. Let Lord Sivir decide his merits and demerits.
