Warhammer: I Am the Hammer of the Empire

Chapter 242 Hell on Earth

A long time has passed since the Imperial Guard decided to guard the battle. Even when the Skadi recruits sent out half a month later came back with enough trucks and the airdropped Chimera, those war engines that sprayed thick smoke looked... Rise like an angel that brings victory.

In the command room, the Sun Lord and his core staff listened to the report. The losses in that operation were unexpectedly low, because of the recruits' combat awareness and the admiration and trust of the Skadi Fourth Infantry Regiment. Due to the harsh environment, they not only have no problem defecting, but have even become stronger and more tenacious.

When the Sun Lord looked at the new recruits from the high-level command room, although there were many wounds on their cheeks, their spirits were much better. Even the strict Master Chief Catachan spoke up.

"They can barely be considered qualified."

And what is even more exciting than that is that the beautiful female inquisitor of Valhalla also came there. After learning about the legendary stories there, out of anger at wronging her own staff or wanting to collect information about that trial In order to find the loopholes in the court problem, she went to the core of the cold hell against all opinions.

The incident in Bu Nao gave Alan Bayer a bit of a headache. He didn't want his soldiers to focus on the private life that didn't exist at all. His current difficulties were expedition and victory, except for the Pangia sub-planet. The problem lies in the situation around the Maelstrom, such as the location of the Black Heart King. If the ambitious man cannot be defeated, things may not change much.

Until his thoughts were interrupted by the mixed words of those soldiers. Indeed, it was time. The supplies were full and the troops were constantly flowing. There were many earth-shaking cannons that had been moved east from Bordeaux and were being cleaned up and leaving. After the road, it is not difficult for those giant monsters to enter.

The fortress in Buluo has a very interesting design, with a complex structure and numerous defensive laser defense sequences on the outside. There are quite thick walls and trenches on the outside. The church shooting outside can also provide enough faith support for the soldiers at all times.

In that strange universe, faith is the only treasure second only to those things after ammunition and food, and the castle also has the apothecary and armory used by the Astartes, and can also serve as the new leader of the Eagle Chapter of Destruction. Order of the Statues.

Look at the high landing pad, it has a certain capability of anti-orbital airdrop, and gunboats or fighter jets can be placed there.

To be honest, the Sun Lord started thinking about how to "eat" in that place before he even entered the area. It can be said that he thought clearly about whether to cook or not.

"Very well, Chief of Staff, mobilize the soldiers, all soldiers, second lieutenants and lieutenants. The two of us plan the invasion steps. Don't use seismic cannons. If the integrity of the castle is damaged, please repair it."

"Boys Lytlin and Catachan, find an external pipeline or use a grappling hook to enter the external room and let the door open. He sees that there are not many legions stationed on the wall. He thinks that external conflicts have wiped them out. "

"If the plan goes well." Alan Bair looked at the clock recording the standard Terra month. "Tomorrow we should be able to safely come to the east and deal with the traitors there. They will really go home!"

Go home, that word has a different magic power for the Skadi people, especially after experiencing such a tragic experience, any soil that can carry them becomes valuable, and only through loss can people wake up. They despise the metal city, and they will have nothing if they lose it.

Those words, those two words drove out the entire huge team, but they soon realized that it would not be too difficult. There were not many guardian legions on the wall anymore, and the Space Marines had disappeared without a trace. The skinny mortal man held a crude weapon on his legs, regarded the bullet casing as the medicine he usually swallowed, swallowed it wholeheartedly, and finally died from a ridiculous thing like foreign body blockage.

Whether hallucinations and hunger pushed them to act like that, during the two-month defensive war, the city finally exhausted the supplies they should have used for several years due to invasion and external strife, or was it only Alan Bair who had a weird feeling? It feels like it's wrong for the empire, no, no, no.

The supplies in the galaxy are definitely enough for them to explore the sea of ​​stars and break through that place. Is it realistic that the empire has not been developed for thousands of years. It has been trapped in that part of the galaxy by external strife, betrayal, huge troops and enemies, and then gradually went crazy, and then Cure that madness with all kinds of stuff.

The empire is maintaining war consumption all the time, and maybe it will become like this one day. Alan Bair does not believe in the wisdom of future generations, otherwise the empire will not be reduced to this, but as a sun lord, he can What to do?

The soldiers opened the door to the outer wall. Those guard towers that once hindered the Imperial Guard were no longer there. Those trucks, Chimeras, and other heavy vehicles continued to enter, and the brightest blond beauty among them was seductively dressed. The (presumably) Inquisitor's leather jacket and skeleton are walking eastward in a transport truck.

The Sun Lord, who had just finished mobilizing for war, was attracted by her, but he did not care about the woman, but was curious about the Inquisition Hall's opinion on the matter.

And whether the east car went straight to the point, when that beautiful shadow moved extremely fast, stirring up the golden wind in the sweltering center of the earth, everyone would also forget whether the imperial judge who was resolute and murderous was actually... The Sun Lord still maintains that respect at all times to avoid being attacked by spirits.

Alan Bair also admired her for the endurance of the boy Lytlin. Although he would not reach the front of the battleship and his own abilities were not very strong, except for personal contact, she was exposed to all untouchables. Her endurance is quite terrifying, so her ability to control the spirit should also be quite terrifying.

And she said calmly. "Lord Sun Lord, long time no see. The situation on the ground looks good."

Alan Beyer replied. "Thanks to your blessing, the losses caused by the fault of Skadi by the Inquisition of Porto are shocking. The red world has now turned into brown. The cannonballs of the Black Mechanicus and the actions of the Grand Inquisitor... Please know, he Regardless of the supreme command of the Astra Militarum, or Skadi's strategic nature as his hometown, the Inquisition has offended him."

Miss Nova's forehead was dripping with sweat. Even if she hijacked the giant ship of the business dynasty, she would not be so nervous, or she would not be so scared when facing the real devil.

"Then, you, you..." She stuttered unexpectedly, but she didn't look cruel. Contrary to what most people think of girls, the judge's loss of that coolness and ease made people even more irritated, but Ai Lambair didn't want to hold on to the matter too much. The essence was that he needed the support of the Tribunal to maintain his idea of ​​​​retiring from Donglai.

He is still weak, the fewer enemies and more friends the better, even if the favor he takes for this does not count the Inquisition's stupid and disgusting negligence, it doesn't matter, what he needs is not the metal-encased hive, and now that It actually looks better.

"He hopes that the Tribunal can give him a good answer, and during that time, I can just work normally." The Sun Lord said and emphasized. "Wrong to the Grand Inquisitor, how is the investigation of that Wah...?"

Nova was calm at the moment and coughed. "Well, is he a very serious judge in the court records, born in..."

Alan Bayer interrupted suddenly. "Speaking of something serious, something related to the war. He doesn't want to change his ancestral home."

Nova answered. "He probably started to reduce the number of reports to the Tribunal headquarters three years ago. The frequency of black ship traffic in the area has also dropped rapidly, and the number of spiritual beings sent has also become rare."

Alan Beyer asked. "He is forming an army of psychics?"

Nova shook her head. "It's not very likely, and the inquisitor is a double-edged sword. Doesn't the judge know that using untrained lunatics will lead to self-inflicted consequences? According to the investigation of the inquisition, during that time, he has been exposing the inquisitors to the general public. Transport outside the vortex.”

"Are you manipulating spells? The Red Pirates have started tinkering with those things. Are they really obsessed with them? But in the short term, it will become more difficult for the enemy to mishandle them." If the Sun Lord can't figure out the enemy's motives, he can A rough analysis, while they were chatting, the car continued to move forward. Skadi's Letlings and Catachan broke through the enemy's defenses. The thick outer court gate and the filthy golden gate marked with the Chaos Eight-Pointed Star were invading. East was forced to open.

The Catachan sergeant pointed a bolt shotgun at a traitor officer. The officer had no weapons and had been disarmed. There were wounds and scars on his face. He looked like a veteran, which meant that the Imperial Sky Eagle on his chest had become The eight-pointed star of chaos.

Catachan walked towards the Sun Lord and reported. "Sir, he's brought in the external commander."

When the mortal saw the Sun Lord, the powerful guy who forced the Space Marines to the point of embarrassment, kneeling on the ground, as if worshiping the gods he had seen, Alan Bair felt sick, fearing that something would defile him. .

"What did I bring that coal-headed guy for?" He endured it and asked his sergeant patiently.

The Master Chief said no. "He said that he could report on the current situation of the enemy. He felt that his dictation could bring the most direct intelligence."

"Then you did the right thing, go and rest, leave that guy to him." Alan Bayer rubbed his temples, as if he couldn't stand the lunatic.

Master Chief Catachan shook his head. "He is your security guard. He doesn't trust those Stormtroopers. They are outsiders from the Ministry of Military Affairs. At least, it would be better to use Skadi Grenadiers."

"He doesn't need that much protection. I know very well how many heretics he can kill on his own. Rather than using our own people and wasting the wrong troops on the battlefield, it's better to use outsiders."

"Secondly, they are all against the wishes of the Ministry of Military Affairs. If they refuse, there will be a rift, and it will be useless to let them stay. The stormtroopers are not the elite of the empire. They were born in Zhongsi Academy with the chief of staff, so they can't be any worse." Aylan. Bayer explained that Sergeant Catachan did not leave. He was helpless because he had failed to control the low east of his own people. Maybe it was because of his kindness that those bastards had no fear.

Now his attention was focused on the madman. "What happened to the castle?"

The guy said tremblingly. "The Space Marines rebelled, and it was normal at first. However, after coming to the east, the Adeptus Mechanicus activated the modified servitors and made them out of military officers. The Grand Inquisitor couldn't stand it and turned to join forces with the Space Marines."

"A large number of mortal troops were led by the Inquisitor to help the Space Marine Hagrid break out. The entire castle was in chaos. The Mechanicus dispatched a large number of servitors and operated the complex external structure of the castle to cut off supplies. The mortal troops and Space Marines broke through the defenses. , surround the net, and loot those things.”

"The walls are considered a safe zone, but there are not many good months. Soon, the food, the hallucinogens, all are gone, hunger and the whispers of the Chaos Gods (withdrawal reactions) attack them."

"Sun Lord, save him, save him! He is willing to return to the empire, give him medicine, give him some tonic!"

He rushed forward like a mad dog and had lost his judgment. Alanbair asked. "Without food, why am I not skinny?"

He suddenly stopped talking and stayed where he was. Alanbair turned his head to look at the sergeant.

The sergeant answered. "Most of the bodies they saw on the wall had cuts, but they were not fatal. Generally speaking, they were fatal with guns, and then the blades cut slowly, intensively attacking the tongue, back, cheeks and other places with even fat, followed by the thighs, leg and arm joints."

Alanbair smiled. "Very experienced, I hope I can use that kind of experience when I go to hell." He raised his weapon, and the gun spit out merciful bullets towards the hopeless things. The blood wet the ground and could not enter the metal-made earth. There was a bright red stream left by those things.

And Alanbair also knew that the Inquisitor did not have enough authority and power, nor did he have faith like the Imperial Pope. People like him could manipulate the entire rebellious Imperial Guard, so what he used was no medicine.

Use Space Marines to suppress the PDF and Imperial Guard stationed in Skadi, and then give them medicine to stabilize their loyalty, and then use those troops to control the cultists and mutants, and communicate with the Mechanicus to stabilize supplies and productivity.

If the Grand Inquisitor was born in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, he must have had a good life, Alanbair thought jokingly, and felt that such a person should not have a good life now. After all, the external troops are already so short of food and clothing, so the situation of external chaos will be even more disgusting and terrible.

"What do I think, Miss Nova." Alanbair's sudden intimate call made Miss Inquisitor a little stunned. She realized that many personal emotions did not matter to the Sun Lord, and she answered while admiring the outside world.

"Well, the castle is divided into two factions, and the Mechanicus should be the most powerful because they control the supply and do not need food. The castle should provide geothermal energy, followed by the Space Marines, and finally the Traitor Guards." Nova analyzed calmly, but Alanbair said.

"Yes, the most powerful is the Space Marines, because no matter what time or what situation, he knows one thing."

"The Mechanicus can't do anything big."

He turned to the soldiers and said. "Everyone pay attention, get ready for close combat with the Chaos Traitor Space Marines, elite troops first, veterans first, recruits clean up the battlefield and provide assistance."

"Then, the Lloyd Castle attack begins! It's the Emperor!"
