131 Burning Soul

The Swordfish frigate's fish-like and delicate positioning gave the Space Marines in the boarding torpedo a familiar feeling, having seen such maneuvers in their battles with the Aeldarins in the past.

No, the speed and agility of the Spirit Bone Battleship were slightly superior to that of the Swordfish frigate, perhaps due to the latter's heavy Zero Element armor mounted on its hull.

Even so, the power from the dark matter thrusters and afterburner was enough for the frigate-piloting Monks of Truth to shake off most of the torpedoes by forcing them into position—and the few attacks they couldn't dodge were defused by the Void Shield.

Unfortunately, none of this was done with the Space Marines in the torpedo on board, and after seeing the afterimage of the Swordfish flying by, they were hit by a torpedo fired by Omeniedes.

"Boarding Cabin 61 has been destroyed, and Captain Seppernik's Firewing team has all been lost!"

"Landing Warehouse 44 has been destroyed, and Captain Belheim's Hurricane Wing team has lost contact!"

"Landing Silo No. 45 was destroyed......"

The constant stream of bad news back to the Omeniedes is a devastating loss that would have left the heart of any Imperial general in pain.

The boarding torpedoes of the precious veterans of the Death Chasers were repeatedly hit by their flagship's weapons under the playful play of the preachers, and one after another exploded into a long series of visually brilliant fireworks in the empty space.

These valiant warriors failed to achieve any of their objectives, failed to kill a single enemy, and died in space without even touching the tail of the cigarette at the end of the Truth Order's fleet.

"This group of heretics ...... Sure enough, they had reached some sort of cooperation with the Aydarns, and it was because of the profane Eldar technology that their ships were so incredibly agile! "The officers on board the Omeniedes gradually understood everything.

The naval officer, loyal to the Lord of Humanity, had hesitated at Company Commander Gonzalez's decision to indiscriminately attack all friendly forces, but now, he no longer had the slightest doubt.

The Order of Truth is no ordinary heresy, and must be exterminated.

The officer urged the technical minions to prepare the launch procedures for the "Annihilator" type vortex bomb as soon as possible, and turned around to launch a new round of attacks on the Swordfish frigate formation.

After the round of confrontation just now, this general with extremely high tactical literacy has figured out some characteristics of the enemy:

It is true that the Swordfish frigates possess a high level of technology far beyond the flagship of the Death Stalker, and are crushing in terms of speed, mobility, and even the sophistication of weapons, but in the final analysis, they are just frigates, the smallest combat ships in the stars.

Frigates often have little room on the regular battlefield, and they have the advantage of being nimble and agile in their smaller size, patrolling some of the major trade lanes to fight fires and weed out unscrupulous pirates.

If you are facing those large battleships in the stars that use the ridge bow and use super-large caliber main guns as the main means of output, the Swordfish frigate can also use its dexterous posture to bully and bully the bulky and slow charging and slow firing of the heavy main guns, but this is not the stars.

The design of the ships of the Human Empire was extremely misshapen, and it was common to use keel structures connected to the adamantite ramming horns, rather than the ridged bow that could be equipped with oversized main guns.

Adhering to the basic principle of "big is beautiful, more is good", the sides of the Imperial warship are always densely packed with all the weapons it can carry. Dense shipboard firepower built for close combat can both defend against enemy ship jumpers and unleash a non-stop torrent of attacks from your side.

The agile posture can't make up for the gap in specifications, and the sophistication of the weapon can't withstand the hundreds of Void Shields on a ship. Once they try to get close, the preachers will face an overload of the human empire's madness.

If the Omenices, which had given up the ability to strike at long distances with its main guns, faced a battleship of the same size equipped with a shaped arc generator, it would undoubtedly be killed by the enemy with the bow of the ridge over the horizon, and would have no power to fight back.

But in the face of a frigate with fast legs and short hands, it is able to restrain the opponent to the death.

The preachers were well aware of this, so they used tactics based on long-range guerrilla raids, dancing on the tip of their knives in brief and dangerous encounters, looking for an opportunity to send the reorganized banshees to launch a gang attack:

- They could see that the interior of the Omeniedes was empty due to the two previous waves of gang raids, and it was likely that there would not be enough Space Marines to garrison it. As long as they can successfully send the Banshee Squad into the battleship, they can directly take control of the battleship.

The idea is very good, but how could the Truth Monks see the flaws, and how could Company Commander Gonzalez, who had drawn up the battle plan, not know.

The reason why he dared to take such a risky action was because he had absolute confidence in himself and his fighting brothers.

Less than 3 hours after the start of the war, the commander of the 3 company proved that his self-confidence was not conceited.

"Stop all attacks on the Burning Soul Foundry! The Firewing Squad led by Company Commander Gonzalez has managed to take control of the ship! ”

After hearing the news, the tense nerves of the officers on the Omeniedes finally relaxed a little.

Succeeded, they managed to decapitate the commander of the Mechanic Order's foundry before they were caught by the Order of Truth and beheaded by the Order.

Once the scales of power tilted, they would collapse faster and faster, and the moment the Burning Soul fell into the hands of the Death Stalkers, the victory was set.

Next, as long as they steadily expand their advantage and take possession of all the remnants of the Mechanic Order's Casting Fleet, they will be able to crush the Truth Order's fleet with absolute firepower and size superiority, and after paying an acceptable huge casualty, the entire space battlefield will be completely emptied.

As for the ground personnel who somehow carried the first round of orbital bombardment, they will also be swallowed up by the subspace rift torn open by the "Annihilator" vortex bomb that is about to be launched.

Gonzalez's plan is quite perfect, and if it goes smoothly, the tide of battle will inevitably tilt in the direction he expected, adding another dazzling feats to his military career.

However, no matter how perfect the plan and the arrangement with a high fault tolerance rate are, they can only plan the information they have, and they cannot prevent forces outside their field of vision from breaking into the battle.

Like now.

At the edge of the pyramids, a Swordfish frigate roaming over the carbonized planet and preparing to launch a surprise attack on the Omeniedes suddenly detected a strange signal.

"Report, we detected an unfamiliar psionic signal at the edge of the galaxy, but the wavelength band of this signal is marked as 'trusted' by the system, it is a small group of Zerg biological warships......"

A female Truth Monk looked at the information on the psionic probe and frowned slightly: "Strange, I've seen the Swarm fleet of Colonia enslaved by the leader before, but I've never seen a biological warship of this form......"
