Chapter 357: Unexpected Reinforcements

The demonic attack was terrifying and fierce, and in the hours of offensive and defensive battles and attrition battles, the Imperial Guard's battle line had been largely defeated, and the demons' invincible war engine had been almost wiped out.

True, the terrible presence that is invincible to the human is also crushed by the tenacity and powerful firepower of the Imperial Guard, but the heavy fragmentation and armor-piercing missiles have fallen into a situation of inadequacy.

The armory had been completely drained, both because of the heavy loads that the Imperial Guard had abandoned in order to break through the battle line, and because heavy weaponry was not a high priority in this war.

The second lieutenant looked at the list in the command room, and the dense red crosses on it told him that the Skadis were once again in a situation where they had no projectiles to fight, and because of his usual penchant for more firepower in exchange for the survival of his soldiers, and the long-cut backup had finally pulled them into a place of no return.

The demons are gathering, and their numbers will increase after this break, and the large forces are all in the southwest, and they have no room to retreat......

The lieutenant looked at the ornate clock on the wall, the date and time marked on it cruelly and ruthlessly told him that there was at least a full day left before the support of the Space Marines.

"God Emperor, ......" he couldn't help but sigh, he rarely recited the name of the Lord of Mankind, but the pressure of the commander almost crushed him, the responsibility under the power, and those sufferings, this world is not gentle to humans.

In a war of this scale, there is very little help that tactics can provide, and the commander is more concerned with planning logistics and dealing with many contingencies in the war, even if it sounds simple, but the difficulty is by no means easy for ordinary people to eat.

Now that the war is deep into the quagmire, the caffeine intake is becoming more and more violent, if it is not for the emperor's grace, he is close to enlightenment.

"Charge the soldiers with their power sickles, and if the enemy charges again, we can only rely on flesh and blood...... this is no way, and the Empire has survived to this day, in the midst of endless enemies and crazy wars, if you want to stand strong, you must give up everything you have.

Sacrifice is the cornerstone of the Empire, and this insanely brutal place is even clearer, and this melee command directly points to what the Imperial Guard's brutal predicament is today.

But hope was not dim before death, and when the order was interrupted by a short and urgent report, Katachan's long-lost contact came as scheduled, and the only communication channel left for the forest warriors shimmered with a dazzling red light.

The second lieutenant and the officers were not convinced, after all, there was very little dramatic hope in this universe, and there was so much dramatic despair.

"Dial through!" Even so, the second lieutenant did not hesitate to message that there was hope for those soldiers, and when the muffled sound of the communicator began, the officers of the Imperial Guard could not help but hold their breath.

"This is the Skady Special Guards, call headquarters." A rugged and familiar voice appeared here, and the second lieutenant listened to the hoarse voice.

"Yes, here, please get back to the team."

"No, I can't go back, just ten people can't change the situation of the battle, but hope is not just manpower, I have found the leader of those demons, Mr. Wild Snake is helping me, I can approach that thing, kill its head, and give us hope." His words were sonorous, and the lieutenant nodded slightly.

"I don't agree, but there's no way, but in today's situation, the Imperial Guard probably won't be able to hold on to your success......"

Sergeant Katachan heard the realization in the second lieutenant's words, but he was unhurried. "The local pdf is coming, we are not alone, brother, victory is not far from us, we have gained the hearts and minds of the people, next the pdf armored vehicles will approach from the west, with enough supplies and heavy firepower, the question is ......"

"Western Front...... It's very close to the battlefield, and if you look at it like this, then ......" the second lieutenant hesitated a little.

"Because only the roads on the west side are more complete, and the other routes are messed up by the war, the PDF vehicles are not tracked vehicles, and it is difficult to break through those weak roads." Master Chief explained.

"They may see demons, those things, ordinary people will be timid when they see them, it's not that I don't believe them, but the risk is too great." The second lieutenant opened uncertainly.

Master Chief said. "There is no risk, this is the battlefield, start to put it, the demons are gathering in a steady stream, there is a portal transporting those things, and the war can only move forward in the craziest way until the heretics and enemies are slaughtered."

"Can't deny ......," the lieutenant nodded.

At this moment, Kenny also started the engine, and the demons are now entrenched outside the manor of Bandtar, and the reason why the demons are no longer attacking during this time is actually interesting, as they are attacking the rune freaks.

Only the first demon army to appear came to the Imperial Guard, because the first company of the rune warriors had betrayed, the eighth company had collapsed, and there were internal discord, and in the abrupt situation, their combat effectiveness was seriously lost.

At the same time, the presence of traitors prevented them from gathering strength, and the appearance of demons was also concealed, and after the second group of demon armies were gathered, those monsters attacked the camp of the rune warriors as soon as possible.

It was inevitable that they would go their own way, but with the betrayal of the leader and the low morale of the warriors, this raid almost destroyed most of the living forces of those who could not be defeated.

The demon army poured out of the nest, attacking the Imperial Guard while fighting the rune freaks, and now that the barbarians have been scattered, this horrific demon army has also extended the war, leaving room for convergence and waiting for the support of the second wave of demon armies.

In other words, the Imperial Guard had been fighting with less than half the demons' strength, and they were so embarrassed that even with the support of pdf, it would be difficult for them to hold out for the rest of the day, and at this point, Katachan's decapitation operation became extremely important.

As the minutes ticked by, the demon legions grew larger, and the lieutenant was anxious as he saw enough metal engines and massive skull cannon arrays that could paralyze the Void Shield.

And after a short preparation, those things were staring at the loyal and living flesh in the trenches of the Imperial Guard.

They had never dealt with such an enemy, and the tiredness and powerlessness rolled at the same time, and after the demon's whistle, support and attack, and finally the latter came.

"Prepare for battle!" The second lieutenant cursed, he looked at the unexpectedly large army in front of him, and realized that his defense was completely inadequate, and those pdfs, although helpful, were difficult to turn the tide of battle.

Unless the emperor appeared, he couldn't imagine how he could win, and when the rows of skull cannons spat out hot iron pellets and smashed them on the void shield at high speed, causing them to flip out terrifying ripples that made people look at them, the demons began to attack, roaring and jumping into the shield area.

The frontal front became a meat grinder, the smell of blood came to the face, the death of demons, mortals, loyalists, but the lieutenant noticed the situation on the western front, the huge number of demons began to allow them to attack over the side of the castle, and by chance this manor was as large as a small city, and those demons could also cover weakly defended areas.

But compared to this, the defending corps on the west side saw that the local pdf armored vehicles were surrounded by the enemy, not to be precise, it should be that they had nowhere to go, a large number of demons occupied the abandoned city area, such a size, thousands of troops were completely unable to cover their whereabouts and tracks.

This incident has exceeded expectations, and as an out-of-the-box unit, this legion does not have the means and ability to contact the Imperial Guard, especially since the existence of those demons distorts the transmission of electromagnetic waves to a certain extent.

The soldiers of the Imperial Guard were restrained at the moment, they couldn't ignore the demon's attack, and pdf poor weapons had little effect on those monsters, after all, even the invincible deflagration guns were difficult to break those monsters, let alone primitive shell-throwing guns.

Surrounded by the enemy, that array of armored vehicles seemed small and fragile, and if it weren't for the fact that there were no skull cannons and steel oxen here, only a small number of sadistic vanguards and vamplets, those pdfs would not have been able to get here!

It's just that the Imperial Guard can only watch, those soldiers are very determined, and their tactical means are excellent, and they are quite capable in the tactical style of detouring, outflanking, and helping each other, they are the first line of defense in the nest to protect the middle nest, so far they have been dealing with the beastmen all year round, so that they are not afraid of demons.

The sharp border warriors flickered like a flame in the dark night on the upper floors of the darkening hive, as if they could be extinguished at any moment......

"Damn it, Chief of Staff, can the Stormtroopers get out?" The lieutenant looked outside with a tactical binocular, and he angrily struck the innocent stones on the outside of the lookout platform on the high platform, so that his fist spilled blood, stained with sand and rotten flesh.

"No, no...... All our defenses have been used, and we have no living strength...! The chief of staff said helplessly.

"I'm going to the front, I'm going with the officers!" The second lieutenant spoke without thinking.

The chief of staff scolded. "If you go, our front will crumble, and there is no point in sacrificing! Do you still need me to teach you this? ”

"Then muster up the courage to help our people die?" The second lieutenant spoke helplessly......

Silence, usually the hard-tongued loyal heirs could not speak, because the war was so cruel that their fate had nothing to do with their motives from the moment they made up their minds to go to the war zone.

Admit it, those moths to the fire like sacrifices are just a drop in the bucket, under the means of the supreme power of the subspace, mortals can only weep bitterly, at least when the Destruction Eagle comes, those warriors can avenge the soldiers of Skadi, at least when Alan Bair occupies this place, those who die, every name that exists can be remembered.

Captain Kenny, the commander of the PDF, climbed on top of the armored vehicle at this moment and opened fire with his shotgun at the enemy who tried to cut through the armored vehicle with the blade, the demon's blood moistened his cheek and left a bright red heat wound.

He didn't say a word, he didn't say a word, he raised his weapon and retreated a few demons, but his dead brothers couldn't be resurrected, but he didn't regret it, as pdf, his mission was to protect the hive, and this group of demons was not the Imperial Guard, the Imperial Guard would not destroy the hive, would not slaughter the inhabitants, but they would.

He shouted. "Think about it, think about the dead comrades, look, look at this messy place, brothers, this group of demons is going to the middle nest, and the people we know have to be rations, or make fun of them!"

"Don't be afraid to die! It's more painful to live, death is just relief, the emperor will open the way for our souls, we will worship under the light of the star Terra, and at this moment, I just want these demons to die! He cursed, shouted, and looked, his fellow citizens were cut open one by one, and died, and the red, the disgusting things, were worse than the beastmen! More disgusting!

He had to be a little discouraged, in just half an hour, the loss had already exceeded half, although the armored vehicles were intact, but it was clear to anyone with a discerning eye that they could not go back......

However, after a burst of fire that did not belong to the Imperial Guard, the encirclement line of the demons was torn apart, and after a flickering light, the soldiers scattered in a dance-like movement, dodging the enemy's attack, and then gathered again, breaking into the interior of the battle line in an extremely fast maneuver time, and opening a passage with the help of the firepower suppression of the pdf.

The appearance of those people was even more impressive, in addition to the iconic runic skin and death aura on their bodies, as well as the same weaponry as the Skadi soldiers, several heavily modified heavy armored vehicles squeezing through the demon's flesh, and their bodies and warriors were also wounded and missing.

Captain Kenny watched in disbelief as those superhuman warriors slaughtered the enemies that gave him constant headaches,

The Captain watched in disbelief as the warriors tore through a battle line, his troops advancing with their lives in the mud, and those with strange symbols on their bodies as if they could anticipate an enemy attack.

About 2,000 of these guys, tearing apart the battle line with thermal weapons and power sabers that were all extremely effective against demons, the captain was now panting and sitting on the roof of the armored car, and asked the commander of the group of people who were holding up the defense.

"My lord, who are you?"

The man's eyes had deep scars, bright red, just dyed, his muscles were swollen, and the runes on his face were complex and profound, dazzling, and he was dexterous like a spirit race to avoid the death of demonic blood.

At the same time, tear open the flesh of a demon, and then answer with ease. "The commander of the first company of the rune soldiers, and the betrayed person......" He looked at the demons angrily, as if looking at the enemy.

When the monsters attacked, he took advantage of the chaos to leave house arrest and broke out with two thousand brothers who understood the situation, and he had only one purpose at the moment, which was to find Rodman, the traitor, and then break him into pieces.
