So Mimic guesses that his mission may be to assist the Iron Man Mothership? After all, Star God is a professional counterpart in dealing with demons.
"Go to the Gate of Tailong, find a defensive node to fight at random, and then find an opportunity to fight out. Try to capture the corroded galaxy outside the Gate of Tailong. Any galaxy will do." Qin Mo ordered.
"Okay." This was not what the mimic expected, but it was willing to do it.
Mimicry did not leave immediately, but looked at Qin Mo and asked after a moment: "You seem to be very anxious..."
"Yes." Qin Mo nodded and looked at the star map displayed on the screen on the other side of the bridge. "Three of the four gods sent their own demonic armies, but Slaanesh did not. It did not participate in this attack. Are you unwilling, or do you have other motives?"
Mimicry realized that Qin Mo might be worried about Guilliman, so he persuaded him: "Our home is Tyrone, and this is where we need to worry."
Hearing this, Qin Mo was silent for a long time and shook his head.
Chapter 390 Beisu is in a hurry
……
Northern star system.
The fleet of the Red Pirates warband is fighting against the Tyrone navy fleet.
Since the entire Gate of Tyrone was under attack and signals for help were sent to the navy everywhere, the navy was unable to devote a large amount of combat power to a single galaxy, so the void battle in the North Star Galaxy was completely evenly matched.
The sixty-seven warships of the Tyrone Navy faced off against the ninety-two warships of the Red Pirates. The two sides were engaged in a void battle with no tactics or skills. Once the void shield and energy shield were shattered, another ship would be replaced to take the lead, and the cycle continued. Back and forth, stuck in a stalemate.
The number of Red Pirates' warships is not more than that of the Tyron Navy, but they are obviously supported by the Dark Gods. The entire fleet carries a huge number of space hulks. These hulks are corroded and attached to flesh and blood, and they can survive without human control. It operates automatically under certain conditions.
When the void battle between the two sides was locked in a stalemate, the red pirate fleet's flank suddenly flashed with light for 0.5 light seconds, and then a frigate sailed to the place where the light flickered at an extremely fast speed, and the ship's body turned inward. After shrinking and twisting, it returns to normal.
This frigate is called Warmaster's Sorrow, and it is Gray's ship.
The frigate suddenly arrived, and the red pirate fleet was caught off guard without observing the dimensional rift. The two flesh-and-blood scraps were penetrated by the frigate's particle light spear.
A cruiser was penetrated from the stern to the bow ramming angle while facing the Tyrone Navy with full fire from the side.
Although the surprise attack of the frigate gave the Tyron Navy a slight local advantage, this type of warship was not used for large-scale void battles after all.
As the entire Red Corsair fleet turned towards the surprise attackers and poured out artillery fire, Gray could only order the frigates to sail behind the Tyrone navy.
"Thank you for your support, Guards."
A holographic image flashed across the bridge, which was Admiral Tyrone fighting in the Beixiu galaxy.
The general saw Gray and was startled.
Because at this time, Gray was sitting on the command throne in the bridge, and his spine from his neck to his waist was connected to a cable that was wrapped with electricity every ten centimeters. In his chest and abdomen, three fusion reactors were glowing red and running at full speed.
Gray's seven orifices and the heat dissipation holes reserved on his body were spraying hot air outwards.
"How's the battle going?" Gray stood up slowly, and the drone flew behind him to help him remove the cables used to power the new hyperdrive.
"As you can see." The general pointed helplessly behind him, "The void battle has reached a stalemate, and strategic point defense tactics have become ineffective... In addition, when we were unable to escape, the enemy dropped land forces on every world in Beisu."
Gray is quite familiar with the navy's tactics.
The Navy has a set of defensive tactics that have only one weakness, and that is strategic point defense tactics.
A small fleet acts as a decoy or sentry, and a large fleet is parked at a strategic point. As long as an enemy appears, the fleet can instantly teleport to the place where the enemy is for defense.
This tactic will not be defeated under normal circumstances. Its disadvantage is that if the enemy has too many warships and launches a full-scale invasion from the beginning, the Tyrone Navy will have to divide the fleet equally into various void battlefields.
"It seems that the enemy is very familiar with our naval tactics." Gray nodded, then looked at his deputy, "The battleship stayed to assist the navy in the battle, and then teleported me to Beisu No. 1."
"Yes." The deputy immediately activated the teleportation device.
"Thank you for your assistance." The general saluted Gray, "For the Lord of Tyrone."
"For Lord Talon." Gray nodded.
The holographic communication image disappears.
Gray was also teleported to the surface of Beisu No.1.
……
The war started quickly, and the Tyrone sector responded quickly.
With its unique communication system, the Tyrone Sector reacted and prepared countermeasures almost as soon as the war began, but when Gray arrived on Beisiu , he did not feel that he had arrived in time.
Beisu No. 1 underwent a transformation after being taken over by the Tyrone Sector. From the surface environment to the hive city... the wasteland on the surface was wiped out and replaced by forests that could supply materials for the hive capital industry.
But now this surface transformation has become useless, because the scale of the enemy's offensive is too large, and the forest was destroyed by the war at the beginning.
There were fighter planes that looked like flying dragons everywhere in the sky. At first, Gray thought it was just a unique shape. But when he found those fighter planes flapping their wings, circling in place and spitting fire, he realized that they really seemed to be flying dragons.
And everywhere on the ground are airdrop pods dropped by Chaos Space Marines, and tattered transport aircraft carried by the warband's mortal servants...
Forty percent of the planet has been lost, but this does not mean that the defenders who still control the remaining 60% of the territory can control the equator, the Antarctic and the North Pole, but they can only control the largest areas on the planet. That hive.
The giant hive city that can be seen outside the planet.
The enemy has surrounded this hive and is trying to attack it by various means.
When Gray arrived at the city wall in the northern part of the hive, he happened to see an enemy transport ship break through the Tyron naval front in a desperate manner and drop three airdrop pods on the surface of the planet. The landing point of the airdrop pods passed through the bioprocessor. Analysis, it is defense point No. 1424 on the city wall.
The transport ship was destroyed just as the airdrop pods separated from the hull, but the airborne assault had not yet been disintegrated.
Many defense points were under attack, but Gray only went to support One Thousand Four Hundred and Twenty-Four because there was a large defense platform there, and countless civilians from other parts of the hive world had teleported or were waiting to teleport to it. Take refuge in the largest hive.
"It's Dreadclaw!"
Soldiers inside the defense point saw airdrop pods falling from the sky.
They had already suffered from the Dread Claw, and knew that this super-large airdrop pod would release melta to kill everyone around them after it fell, so their commander did not hesitate to lead his men to teleport the Dread Claw's landing point.
The three airdrop pods landed 700 meters away from the defense point teleportation platform. Smoke and melt were released together. The door of the airdrop pod was kicked open. Three six-man combat teams of Chaos Space Marines and thousands of mortal servants exited. gushed out.
The soldiers who had previously teleported away were teleported back again. The heavy-fire combat team was ready for battle while they were still traveling through the dimensional space. When they teleported out, they immediately opened fire on the enemy with twin-mounted heavy logging guns.
Mortal servants fell in swarms, and Chaos Space Marines stood sideways, using bolt bombs to quickly clear heavy fire squads.
But soldiers suddenly teleported out from the left and right sides of the Space Marines. They were anti-armor combat teams, holding melta weapons and killing four Space Marines in one second before the Space Marines could react.
Chapter 391 The upcoming apocalyptic war
The battle is a bit chaotic.
There was not much cooperation between the Hive Defense Force and the Tyron Army stationed here. The appearance of the anti-armor squad did effectively kill several Space Marines and forced them to find bunkers.
However, a Letling sniper team deployed by the Army from the battlefield in front of the city wall to support the defense point of the teleportation platform was unable to immediately assassinate the Space Marines hiding in the bunker after being teleported out, and the effect of surprise was lost.
The Letling team could only move around the battlefield through dimensional teleportation, trying to find a shooting position that could not only penetrate the bunker but also penetrate the weakest part of the Space Marine's power armor defense.
But the Chaos Space Marines have discovered the Lytling team. They are amazed by these short demi-humans who can teleport everywhere. At the same time, they rely on their own experience to deal with the Lytlings. This experience is to constantly change the angle of the body and use shoulder armor and cover. To every Lytling who teleports.
This technique may seem difficult to pull off, but for a Space Marine it's easy enough.
When the ground battle reached a stalemate, Gray came to support.
The Imperial Guard appeared directly behind the Space Marines behind the bunker. He was discovered by the Space Marines as soon as he escaped from the dimensional space, but being discovered did not mean that he could respond immediately.
When Gray pressed the button on the hilt of the chainsaw and swung the sword, the heads of the three Space Marines in front of him were chopped off one by one.
"Is that a chainsword or a fucking power axe?"
Stunned by the power of Gray's chainsword, the Space Marines rolled in all directions in an attempt to distance themselves, but this gave the Lytlin sniper team an opening.
The heavy sniper rifle held by the leader of the sniper team fired one after another. Each bullet penetrated the half-meter-thick bunker and penetrated the spine on the power armor that was not thickened like the shoulder armor.
The bullet penetrated the ceramic steel and broke through the black carapace. The kinetic energy had been exhausted by now, but fortunately it had penetrated the flesh and blood of the Space Marine and embedded itself in the bones.
Gray quickly stepped forward and killed the remaining Space Marines one by one with his chainsword.
As for the mortal servants who came down with the Space Marines, they had no ability to resist the teleporting soldier defense team. They were focused on by the last remaining heavy fire team and were slaughtered like executions, one after another, one on top of the other. 's death.
The defensive point was held.
Gray pulled the chainsword from the corpse and held it in the sun for a closer look.
The chainsword is still almost broken like before, but the saw teeth can rotate strangely.
And I don’t know if it’s an illusion... I feel like this chain sword that killed Abaddon eighteen times with the Living Saint on Cadia is even more powerful. Under normal circumstances, even a power sword cannot directly kill three people. The head of a helmeted Space Marine.
When Gray teleported out, he didn't intend to kill three people in a row. His original plan was to decapitate one person and then activate bullet time immediately.
After a brief look, Gray shouted to the soldiers: "Where is your governor? I'm going to ask him why the air defense system was not activated and why the hive world lost 40% of its territory at the beginning. ,Why……"
"Because the enemy's offensive is far more violent and rapid than I and my think tank expected."
Gray hasn't gone to the Governor yet, but he's already getting a response.
On the teleportation platform, tens of thousands of civilians had just been teleported out, and He Qizheng was standing at the front.
The new planetary governor was accompanied by his psyker, a white-haired man with his eyes sewn shut.
The latter is the stone assistant.
All three were wearing armor and looked like they had been through combat.
"The Navy was too late. One minute too late."
He Qi was walking towards Gray and explaining the current situation.
"The Galaxy Observation Station initially detected 1,200 enemy ships. The huge fleet instantly disintegrated the void defense line, penetrated the planet's orbital defense, and then flew away."
"Twelve hulks came to orbit and launched forty airdrop pods towards Hive Three where the air defense system was located. One hundred and twenty Space Marines emerged from them and destroyed the air defense system."
"Although the hulk was turned into fireworks in orbit by the navy that arrived after launching the airdrop pod, but... I am not complaining, I am just stating the facts. The navy still arrived a little late."
After listening to He Qizheng's explanation, Gray first contacted the database to obtain past war information, and then found that what He Qizheng said was true.
The Beixiu Galaxy obviously received special attention. From the beginning, the entire red pirate fleet swarmed over.
Other galaxies don't have this treatment.
Gray then had another question, why did the Red Pirates put so much effort into it?
After thinking about it, Gray thought that the astronomical position of the North Star Galaxy was too special. In front of this galaxy was the outside of the Gate of Tyrone, and behind it was the 400 light-years with the Dead Zone as its core. Maybe the enemy wanted to tear apart the Gate of Tyrone and open up a link with the Gate of Tyrone. Those four hundred light-year connected passages.
"You are the governor." Gray frowned and looked at He Qizheng, "You don't sit at the top of the tower to command the battle and go to rescue civilians?"
"I spent four months selecting the best strategic staff from the galaxy. If I, a governor who is not good at commanding, are needed to command operations, Beisu-1 must be on the verge of falling." He Qizheng said Walk towards the edge of the city wall.
Governor Beisu No. 1 looked outside the city wall and murmured: "Fortunately, fortunately, it was just the enemy fleet that came in a swarm, and the battle on the ground was not that big..."
