Chapter 21: The Campaign of Salem (13)
New enemies have appeared.
A mighty green-skinned fleet was like a sharp knife, striking, towards the flank of the expeditionary fleet at high speed.
However, the flank firepower of the vast majority of fleets should not be underestimated, not to mention the human empire that has fought in all directions in the galaxy and destroyed countless aliens and tyrants.
As the large cannon array once again spewed terrifying and terrifying dazzling tongues of fire, countless giant spears of light condensed with destructive light also tore through the darkness in an instant.
In an instant, the energy shields of almost the entire vanguard ships of this greenskin fleet were completely overloaded, and the fiery light spear array as dazzling as a star also poured out terrifying firepower in the next moment, bringing death and destruction to these alien scum and broken ships, and the exquisite and stable fire control set by the genetic prototype itself almost wasted any firepower, almost half of the vanguard ships were melted into scrap metal under the terrifying firepower of the light spears covered by perfect firepower, and hundreds of thousands of greenskin boys were bombarded in this round of salvo to the point that there were no cells left.
However, among the vanguard units that were almost heavily damaged, several extremely large battleships broke through the dense network of firepower constructed by light spears and large cannons, but its heavy and unstable energy shield flickered and seemed to be crumbling, which symbolized that the damage it had suffered was definitely not small.
Soon, the massive firepower was overheated by the cannons and spears, and the expeditionary fleet began to disperse to avoid excessive losses from the Greenskins' reckless and frantic ramming tactics, and the next round of firepower was passed over to the Mechanicus Expeditionary Fleet from Mars, their array of efficient and mysterious weapons to deal with the greenskins that were gradually passing through the wreckage of friendly forces.
And as the vanguard fleet's massive orc battleships began to launch a counterattack against the human shrimp within their range, dozens of battle barges of the Children of the Mountains suddenly leapt out of the subspace, and in an instant they reached a position where they could launch a broadside battle.
These surprise assault forces have been on standby in the pre-arranged positions of the Mother of Genes for a long time, and thousands of Astartes are silently but efficiently aboard fisted assault boats and jumper torpedoes, while the fire cover from the Mechanicus Expeditionary Fleet is overloading the energy shields of the Greenskin battleships.
In order to prevent the battle barges from being countered by the strange greenskinned artillery, Astarte quickly unleashed their most proficient tactic - gang jumping and decapitation.
In fact, these long-awaited forces of destruction are designed to deal with the possibility of unruly guests.
Previously, the 13th Expeditionary Fleet seemed to have launched an all-out offensive against the large but powerful Inhuman fleet, but in fact it was just a subtle and powerful attack by dozens of Astarte companies and mortal auxiliaries under the arrangement of the genetic prototype.
Elaine analyzed several of these communication links in a rapidly updated database, and the efficient actions of the Astartes ensured that these communication hubs were defeated in the first place, thus ensuring that the entire vast Inhuman fleet was transformed into a chaotic rabble.
And any stubborn resistance made by these Inhuman fleets without tacit cooperation will only be a waste of artillery fire in vain, because the Void Shield of the 13th Expeditionary Fleet has formed a solid defense line that is impossible to break under Elaine's precise control, and the Gene Prototype has been carefully calculating the degree of overload of the Void Shield of various ships all the time, and then through a fast and efficient chain of command, it is possible to resist the firepower in a formation.
Subsequently, the fleet of the Human Empire continued to crush the morale of the Inhuman fleet under various panic and decapitation tactics, and finally with the extremely efficient gang-jumping tactics of the Asta, only a few hundred squads in these companies were needed to complete the bloodbath of the backward and dirty majority of the Inhuman fleet in a very short time.
[Now, let's attack... My children. 】
As the gentle whispers of the Mother of Genes rang in the ears of the Astartes, these skilled and disciplined warriors quickly prepared for battle, and the various gang jumping ships were thrown onto the orc battleships with completely overloaded shields, thus beginning their journey to the present day.
……
During Astarte's hundreds of years of service, such sudden encounters were not uncommon for them.
Each of them was a veteran of countless bloody battlefields, and those from Nukeria were troops sent by the genoplasma to fight the Inhumans.
For the sharpest spears of these great expeditions, war is everything to them.
These Astartes prepared for more tragic and magnificent battles every day, honing their skills in endless battles every day, and the extremely high casualty rate symbolized their countless wars that spanned the centuries.
From the time they were officially enlisted, they had to go through countless extremely rigorous and extreme inhuman training, and any unqualified candidates were eliminated in layers of ruthless screening - yes, if you want to transform into a transcendent warrior, you need to have the potential and will to be an extraordinary warrior, which is the origin of Astarte's excellent and terrifying individual qualities.
With just one team, they can easily conquer the entire planet.
Their iron will is strong enough to sustain them for hundreds of years in a long and brutal war.
Their divine power and bloodline, inherited from the original genome, is the brotherhood that these transcendent warriors have been linked together without saying a word.
In the entire galaxy, there are few enemies and xenomorphs that can match the sharpest spear tips of these human empires.
After their allegiance to the great cause of the Lord of Mankind, the superhuman bodies that were given to them, and their wills as hard as steel, were the sharpest weapons of these Astartes.
They were bathed in the roar of artillery fire all the time, and they could rest in peace under the mercy of the emperor after being baptized by endless gunsmoke, which is the story that runs through the lives of the Astartes.
These one-in-a-million transcendent warriors are unmatched in their resilience and fervor, and any enemy who stands in their way will eventually be crushed to dust.
If you want to defeat an Astarte legion, you can only use another Astarte legion as their opponent.
Obviously, this is something that will never happen.
