The Space Marines boarded their vehicles and quickly left.

These warriors, who are more powerful than the Astral Army, also have greater responsibilities on their shoulders.

Although the hatching nest here has fallen into the control of the Empire, there is more than one Tyranid hatching nest on the Long River Star, and the Long River Star is full of war.

And the Tylen hatching nests in various parts of the Long River Star are large and small, and the Tylen creatures in them are also different. Some large hatching nests may even harbor bio-Titans as gigantic as the Imperial Titans, such as the Worm Saint and the Tyran Suppressor.

[Due to the circumstances, once the location of a large hatchery nest is discovered, Space Marines or other rapid strike forces are to be deployed to destroy them.]

Destroying these large hatching nests meant that the warriors of the Empire would face more and more dangerous Tyranid creatures.

But it is precisely because they are able to hatch more and more dangerous Tyranid creatures that they deserve to be destroyed.

This could be a highly dangerous mission to penetrate deep into Tyrannic's controlled territory, as it must have been heavily infestation. So these areas need to be more troops.

As a result, these warriors have no time to breathe after a battle, and there are other battlefields that urgently need their help.

But fortunately, their genetically modified bodies give them plenty of energy. After a long battle, they were able to keep their fighting condition perfect and go into the next battle.

The departing Space Marines will return to the small base set up by the MCV, change into new weapons and equipment, replenish their ammunition, and then rush to the next battlefield in a transport boat or transport vehicle.

............

After the Space Marines leave, Tylen hatches above the nest.

The crew compartment of a super-heavy tank is stacked with communications equipment, and projectors and holographic maps show what is happening on the battlefield. This is the strategic command center of the battlefield here.

The commander of the Astral Force on the battlefield opened the hatch and climbed out of the tank.

As far as the eye can see, the battlefield at this time is a mess.

The corpses of the Tyranid creatures are piled up, and some of the symbiotic Tyranid creatures on the corpses of the Tyranids are still spreading highly toxic spores into the air.

The Commander saw a yellow cloud floating in the air like infected lung tissue, a cloud of Tyrannic spores coming together.

Although the Tyranid Bugs here have been almost completely wiped out, for ordinary humans, this place is still a place of death. If it weren't for the protection of the Astral Army with power armor, they wouldn't have survived here for many games.

The soldiers and some of the moving vehicles were gathered under the orders of the commander, the Space Marines had left, and it was time for the Astral Army to evacuate the area.

Other battlefields not only need the support of the Space Marines, but also the help of the Astral Army.

Although the Tyranid creatures have previously launched an attack on the human cities on the Long River Star and lost a large number of troops. However, there are still a large number of Tyranid creatures on the Long River Star. ….

When the Imperial forces attack the Tyranid hatchery, these Tyranid creatures will definitely rush to help. Therefore, it is necessary to have a sufficient number of soldiers to stop them.

When facing the attack of Tyranid creatures, the more soldiers deployed, the better.

The commander standing next to the super heavy tank looked at the assembled soldiers and vehicles, switched the frequency of the communicator built into his helmet to the tactical communication network, and began to direct the evacuation of the astral troops.

With the current number of vehicles alone, it is impossible to transport all the Astral Forces back to the small base at once, so a batch of Astral Forces whose power armor was damaged in the recent battle have priority to ride on the transport vehicles.

Poisonous air permeated the battlefield, and the breath inhaled made the throats of those with broken power armor tingle.

Their skin was itchy and their respirators were filled with pungent Tylen toxin. The yellow air kept drilling through the damage of the power armor.

So

Soldiers who have lost the protection of their power armor must be evacuated first.

Of course, Tyranid creatures don't just rely on spores to inflict damage on the Astral Army. In previous battles, the claws and corrosive acids of some Tyranid creatures had also caused heavy casualties to Imperial soldiers.

Pierced abdomen, severed arms, severe falls, severe corrosion injuries...... These injuries are much more serious than the spores.

However, as long as the Astral Army does not die on the spot, on the battlefield, the vital signs detection system within the power armor will send the location to the Medic in real time after detecting the soldier's vital signs are abnormal.

Those who are injured will soon be treated and will be out of danger if they are not fully healed.

At this time, what threatens those injured astral troops is still the Tyranid spores that keep burrowing into the broken parts of their power armor.

Therefore, the Astral Army, which has lost the protection of the Power Armor, should be sent away from this battlefield full of highly toxic spores first.

And as they left first in the transport vehicle, under the arrangement of the commander, the subsequent astral troops also began to evacuate step by step.

But the commander stared ahead, as if searching for something.

Through the yellow wind mixed with highly poisonous spores, the dark yellow patch in front of the commander's eyes left him with nothing. But he seemed to have suddenly noticed something in his field of vision.

"Here they are." He said, then entering the heavy tank, opening his helmet and enjoying the air in the crew compartment happily.

This message from the commander was confirmed.

"Spotted target, about two o'clock." This was confirmed by the ornithography operator. "It's heading towards us, at about forty kilometers per hour."

"Commander, can we evacuate?" The operator asked.

"Of course, but until I and the other party are done."

The commander took out a thermos flask from his equipment bag, poured a cup of tea full, took a sip of the warm liquid, and looked at the moving dots of light on the bird.

Soon, the rumbling sound sounded again on the battlefield.

It's not the vibrations caused by the Tyranid creatures digging into the ground, but the sound of massive clusters of armor moving on the surface. ….

At this time, it was an armored force of the Empire that arrived.

This... That's not right, this battle is over, how can there be a large armored force coming.

But it's actually right.

A closer look at the tanks in these armored units reveals that most of them have no muzzles and are replaced by towing chains and bulldozers.

Those trusty Sentinel Mechs don't have heavy flamethrowers, chainsaw swords, or cluster lasers mounted on them, but crane booms.

Those tanks, light tanks, either have huge cargo compartments or tow transport trailers.

Obviously, this is not an armored unit that was used to fight.

While they are just as good at fighting as the Iron Sheets aren't paper lakes, they usually do a support mission, which is an armored force of numerous support vehicles and mining vehicles.

When the commanders of the two armies met and the detonators and codes of the underground bombs were handed over, some of the tanks that arrived drove towards the armored vehicles that remained motionless on the battlefield.

Just like soldiers get hurt, most of the Empire's vehicles malfunction during battles with Tyranid creatures for a variety of reasons.

At the end of the war, the Astral Army's engineers managed to repair some of the tanks by replacing some of the common parts of the faulty tanks. But the problem of more tanks is not something that can be solved by engineers alone.

Vehicles that are still mobile can drive themselves back to the repair shop in the small base, but these are a bit of a hassle.

There's no way they're going to be carried back by the Astral Army.

So, these broken vehicles can only wait for the arrival of the recovery squadron. Those heading for the Nest were the Atlas-type recovery tanks.

They are a type of armor recovery unit. Created

It was built to recover damaged or incapacitated armored vehicles and bring them out of the line of fire.

It is not easy to tow a tank weighing more than tens of tons, or even hundreds of tons.

As a result, all Atlas tanks have removed their turrets, reduced their armor, and increased engine output so that they have enough power to drag their cousins.

In the past, even an Atlas tank with reduced armor could not drag a super-heavy tank.

Although not now.

The researchers of the Empire did not put much thought into optimizing these old models and tanks that were not main battle tanks.

However, as the tanks headed towards the coordinates of the tank that had crashed, some of the Astral Army dismounted from the tanks, then opened the hatch from the side, took out something, and attached it to the tank.

This is a small anti-gravity levitation device developed by the Empire.

Since the Ataras tank can't pull, let's make the weight of the super heavy tank lighter.

With these devices attached to the malfunctioning Super Heavy Tank, the Atlas crew also tied the towing chain to the accident vehicle and lowered the rear dozer blade.

This was done to prevent the weight of the accident truck from causing the center of gravity of the recovery tank to be out of tune, and the rear dozer blade also stabilized the chassis when the crane began to tighten the winch. Atlas will then be able to return to the rear with the accident vehicle. ….

However, not every damaged vehicle has to be pulled to the rear for disposal.

Some of the engineers have checked that some of the vehicles can be repaired here, while others have no need to be repaired at all.

Numerous engineers and logisticians will lose their vehicles for repair, and they will be dismantled. The Sentinel Mechs then use their booms to place these heavy parts into a towbox, hoverplane, or transport trailer.

As a member of the Logistics Force, the Heavy Sentinel is not a combat vehicle, and therefore does not have any weapon configuration. But with the boom of the mech, it can complete all kinds of carrying tasks.

They are a kind of multi-purpose vehicles, the most common way of use is to load and unload various materials in the rear, and the figure of them running around in the warehouse area of the Ministry of Military Affairs with various material boxes is already a common sight in the rear.

Those who have maintenance value and can complete the repair on site are surrounded by many maintenance vehicles. These repair vehicles are a special model of multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles.

The multifunctional infantry fighting vehicle was one of the main air defense forces of the Empire, and the missiles it fired were more effective against infantry and lightly armored units.

However, unlike other vehicles, as a new model of vehicle that has been recently developed, rather than an "antique" left over from the Great Expedition, this versatile infantry fighting vehicle has a wealth of modules that can be replaced.

Multifunctional combat vehicles can achieve different combat functions according to the needs of their own passengers, and before the war, by changing the accessories on their own body.

It can change its main weapon to an anti-tank missile, making itself a tank killer; You can also change your primary weapon to a radiation cannon to melt enemies; You can also change your primary weapon to an electromagnetic railgun to snipe enemies from a distance.

As a self-detonating truck, fires electromagnetic attacks, amplifies the psionic energy of combat psionics, and more.

Multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles live up to the name of multi-functional. And the maintenance car is one of its variants.

The repair vehicle is equipped with a large number of repair tools and spare equipment, and the engineers and maintenance soldiers on it can repair damaged vehicles at any time on the battlefield.

As the rumbling of the engine resounded, vehicle after vehicle was given a new lease of life.

But on the other side, with the clanging noise, more vehicles were separated according to the assembly modules, or cut into small pieces, and loaded into the truck.

Not all vehicles can be given a new lease of life.

It's like that's with vehicles, and it's like with people.

While the Empire's medical skills are sufficient to heal almost any injury, it is still not enough to bring the dead back to life.

In front of some wagons, placed and

Not the dismantled metal resources, but the remains of some Astral Army.

They have heroically paid for the Empire in previous battles.

"May your souls return to the Golden Throne."

The commander of the recovery unit prayed for the soldiers in his heart as he directed the soldiers to carry the bodies to the cargo hold.

He can't leave these soldiers here like this, and he can't bury them here.

This is not an Imperial city or fortress, and when they leave, the remains left in the wild will end up with only one fate, to be eaten as food by the Tyranid creatures who have come with the "hungry", or thrown into the digester. Their biomass is then used by Tylen as a resource to make the Recruit Bug.

Whether it was out of the intellect of not being able to defend the enemy, or out of admiration for these soldiers. Commanders could not tolerate such treatment of the bodies of these valiant soldiers.

He would bring the soldiers back and give them a solemn funeral.

The empire will give these heroes the glory they deserve.

While some of the soldiers gathered the human remains on the battlefield, others and some heavy sentry mechs brutally threw the corpses of some Tyranid creatures into the cargo hold of the side vehicle.

Looks like they're going to bring back the corpses of Tyrann as well.
