……

After the enemy fleet was expelled from the system, and no more enemy orbital bombardment threatened the area outside the Void Shield, the already dominant cathars were finally able to leave the Void Shield's protective range for normal warfare.

Cathar ground forces charged enemy positions under the cover of Titans and Knights, while reinforcements from Tyrone appeared behind enemy positions to participate in the battle.

In some of the battlefields where the enemy already had a great advantage, the situation did not change much, and the cathars built positions and defenses, and the enemy attacked while deploying manpower to deal with the Tyrone army that suddenly appeared from the rear.

Only in the Arctic region of the casting world there is a different kind of war.

The Arctic was entrusted to the Tyrone army by the priest in charge of defending it, so that the vacated cathars could be sent to other high-intensity battlefields.

The 44 regiment was responsible for the war in the Arctic region.

The first company, with a total of 30,000 men, was responsible for retaking the enemy-controlled western region, and they had another business besides fighting, which was to test a new tactic.

Instead of concentrating the forces of the entire company to attack positions or fortresses, they were dispersed into skirmishers.

Grote, who had become the commander of the first company, was advancing in a commanding Riemannus tank, and he saw through holograms that his men were scattered everywhere, often with only a few hundred people in a large area.

Grote stepped out of the car and looked around.

Two Ou Green guards wearing power armor walked on both sides of the tank, and the 500-strong company commander guard also followed the tank, they were in groups of three or five, looking very loose.

The whole company moved loosely on the battlefield.

Although the battlefield is located in Antarctica, there is no ice, snow or glaciers in sight, and there are various industrial facilities large and small in sight.

Grote felt more like a city, nothing like the battlefield environment he had imagined when he was preparing for war on the Celestial Engine.

From time to time, a few warplanes flew in the sky, and then a few flashes of light appeared on the horizon directly ahead.

The artillery units of the 44th Regiment were bombarding the edge of the battlefield, and Grote did not know what they were bombing.

"Company commander, what are we doing?" The driver, who was operating the tank, looked back and asked.

"I don't know." Grote replied.

This is not an impatient prevarication, but a truth.

Grote himself didn't know what he was doing, he only knew that he had been ordered to advance, but he had never fought a decent battle.

The infantry of the entire company was more like an outing than a battle.

Grote knew that the other infantry in the entire company, who were out of sight, were also on an outing.

As Grote surveyed his surroundings, there was a sudden roar, and he and his men turned their heads to look in the direction from which the sound had come from.

The sound was not the sound of soldiers in other areas encountering enemies and exchanging fire, but rather the giant war machines known as the Titans.

There are several "mountains" moving on the horizon in the distance, and this is the Titan.

The Titans were carrying out the priest's transfer order and marching towards the high-intensity battlefield where they were needed more, only to pass by and see friendly troops from the Tyrone system, and then greeted them in the Titan way.

When he saw these Titans, Grout felt that he was not much different from what they were doing, just moving forward.

After observing it for a moment, Grote's body retracted into the tank, and then continued to stare at the holographic projection.

Although everyone seems to be on an outing, the war is indeed going on.

The holographic projection shows all detected positions or fortifications that have been captured by enemy forces before, and although they have not yet been attacked by infantry, they are still rapidly decreasing.

The benefit of the new tactics experimented with by the first company was obvious, that is, the ground forces could advance very quickly.

Grote glanced at the whole situation and looked at the red dots, which were scattered in front of the infantry.

"We're going to face a fight, cheer up." Grote reminds the entire company in the communication channel.

The command Riemannus tank moved forward for another ten minutes or so, and Grote saw a warehouse directly ahead.

The warehouse had been cleaned by artillery and warplanes, and the left half had collapsed, leaving the remains of fortifications and corpses inside and out.

The hardest stuff here has been taken care of before, and there are only a handful of enemies left in the warehouse.

After discovering the Riemann Ruth tank that had arrived outside the warehouse, the survivors inside the warehouse poured out with various weapons.

Grote observes them closely, and finds that these enemies are all mutated to various degrees, with a variety of weapons in their hands, and even some of them carry two axes bare-chested, and their equipment is not even comparable to that of the militia, and the only advantage is that they are all angry, and are being driven forward by anger, even in the face of tanks and infantry all wearing power armor.

The tank and surrounding infantry were already firing as Grote observed, and more than half of the enemies rushing out of the warehouse were slaughtered by heavy bolts and laser rifles in just five seconds, but the remaining enemies were still charging forward.

It's a battle without the slightest suspense.

If the various artillery and fortifications here in the warehouse had not been destroyed by the fighters that flew here before, it might have taken some effort, but unfortunately there was no if.

The scanning device integrated into the power armor worn by each infantry member is still working during the battle, and after the latest scan, a red mark appears on the map in the HUD, which is approaching from the east at a very fast speed.

Grote immediately divided his men to defend the east side, and all the weapons on the tank were turned around.

Ready, Grote pressed his eyes to the goggle to see what was going on to the east.

Soon Grote's vision saw a Space Marine wearing crimson power armor and wielding two axes, shuttling back and forth between various objects that could be used as cover, approaching at breakneck speed.

Heavy explosive bolts on the tank and the infantry around them opened fire.

The Space Marines continued to weave their way through the bunkers, quickly rushing to the tank, chopping off the heads of two infantry with an axe, and then lifting the corpses as shields to approach the tank.

"Lute!" Grout called for his Oglim guard.

The one named Lute had already rushed forward with his arms raised, and his heavy flesh was assisted by the transmission of the Oglim Armor to rush forward, and the Space Marine, whom he had targeted, did not avoid but immediately swung his axe, and when the axe blade broke through the power armor, Lute's arms also smashed down.

The sound of the power armor shattering, the starmarine's head and helmet were smashed, and even his shoulders were smashed to waist level, and the serious deformation of the flesh and power armor was simply miserable.

"I ...... I killed three big ones...... I...... Best! Lute raised his bloodied arms and cheered loudly.

Grote tries to warn Lute that he killed not three, but one, but just as he is about to speak, he finds that the blood on the battlefield gathers and fades away.

"What's going on?"

"Blood is ......"

The infantrymen, who had just annihilated all the enemy, noticed the strange situation, and the blood was flowing and converging, then disappearing as if it had been evaporated.

"We've got to report on this." Grote filmed the strange phenomenon in front of him and transmitted it to the Praetorian Guards.

It's been a terrible day

Tomorrow should be fine, I'll get up early to update
