The Emperor’s Angel of Death

Chapter 1841 Sartosa Counterattack

At least in Dietrich's strategic vision, although the empire now has some advantages, as long as his armored iron fist is still there, the imperial people will suffer the worst defeat.

"All crews are ready, sir."

Sergeant Vsevolod of the company's No. 1 Strike Team came to him and interrupted his inspection of his car. The soldier's voice was excited, and Dietrich didn't need to look away from the Moving away from the mighty shape, one can feel the subordinate's desire for slaughter.

Vsevolod was one of the few commanders in the company who swore an oath to Khorne, and though he hadn't repainted his power armor in the blood god's favored colors, during more than six centuries of carnage he had The ceramic surface had never been cleaned, and his armor was now coated in a thick layer of black dried blood.

Generally speaking, Dietrich disliked unstable followers of Khorne joining his company and driving his precious steel chariots.

The exception was Vsevolod, who, despite his desire to kill, was able to restrain himself and turn the blood god's fury into valiant tactical skill.

"The machine needs further inspections before slaughtering can begin."

"It's done, Khorne needs skulls."

"Khorne always needs skulls."

Dietrich said calmly:

"And He'll have them soon."

He turned around and looked around. A total of 15 heavy vehicles of various types from the 6 strike teams had already started their engines, and they roared with life. Most of the engines had been modified to adapt to the forces of chaos, and the huge loot Skulls strung on brackets, sacrifices to the dark gods were chained to turrets and hoods.

Dietrich had the minion replace himself with a command backpack consisting of cables, data cables, uplink plugs, and servo skulls, before boarding his command vehicle.

"These next battle plans, everyone and every vehicle group must be strictly implemented! I don't want to see any self-assertion and self-righteousness!"

Soon, the battle plan was transmitted to each vehicle via data.

This is actually a counterattack plan that Dietrich and Lord Sartosa have worked out for a long time. At the beginning of the attack, they will concentrate on attacking the No. 3 giant substation in the middle nest and the Neus transportation hub. According to investigations, the troops in the team learned that there were only two newly recruited local regiments from the Maelstrom, and their combat effectiveness was relatively weak. At the same time, the terrain in this area was relatively flat and broad, suitable for armored troops to advance.

After breaking through this area, the Red Pirates will divide into two groups. One is composed of mortals, mainly attacking the two large arsenals and material warehouses at the front of the attacking force, and the other is the main force, responsible for attacking the adjacent Cadian battle group. General Command.

Although the imperial army broke through the middle nest, there are still many residents hiding in the ruins of the middle nest. They are passing information to the red pirates all the time. Therefore, the red pirates are basically clear about the deployment of the imperial army. Take down the command post of the Cadian battle group, then the Cadian army will fall into chaos, and if they attack from the front at that time, they will have the opportunity to severely damage this spearhead army in one fell swoop. Coupled with the destruction of the forward supply warehouse, the empire Subsequent attacks are likely to slow down.

As long as the time is stalled, everything is not dead, as long as Honso of Badab attacks, everything will be fine.

In a comprehensive summary, what they mean is to try to knock off one finger of the empire's attack first, and wait for the empire to let go of the pain, and then find a way to knock off the other.

For this plan, Lord Sartosa not only invited the fourth super-heavy armor company, but also took out all the demon engines and mixed them with 500 Chaos space fighters and hundreds of thousands of pirate servants to form a Sartosa counterattack group. The attack will be launched in the direction where the Cadians are head-on, and nearly 1,000 Chaos Space Marines and tens of thousands of the most elite pirates will use various vehicles to form an assault group to assist the fourth super-heavy armored company to open a breakthrough .

It can be said that this operation has basically used all the remaining main forces of the Red Pirates in Sartosa, and the rest are basically useless militias and slaves. Of course, several Chaos Wizards will also assist in the battle, and they will use These beings perform various rituals, interfere with the communication of the empire, create a rust storm unique to Hive City, and summon a small number of demons—in fact, if they are not too low-level, the red pirate lords would have let them summon demons on a large scale .

In the face of the crisis of death, the red pirates were much more efficient, and they acted immediately after the plan was finalized.

On the other hand, when the empire's attack went smoothly, it basically didn't have much defense against the Red Pirates' counterattack. When the main force was concentrated in several directions, only some second-line troops were placed in some key nodes for defense.

Therefore, when the roaring super-heavy armor rushed into the Neus transportation hub and its adjacent areas in an assault formation, the two defending regiments were completely unprepared, and the weapons and a small number of vehicles in their hands were completely unable to threaten these soldiers from a group of vehicles. The ancient engine from ten thousand years ago, while the suicidal anti-armor team was intercepted by the Chaos Space Marines who followed the armor, and the Hammer of the Tyrant destroyed fourteen Chimeras and five Leman Rus tanks in the battle.

In the end, the two garrison regiments were completely defeated and withdrew from the key position. At this time, it was only 30 minutes before the Red Pirates' armored force launched an attack.

After stepping over the corpses and positions of the defenders, the Red Corsairs 4th Armored Company immediately turned to the west, heading straight for the headquarters of the Cadian battle group.

Almost at the same time as the breakthrough, the red pirates also started their frontal counterattack. A large number of distorted demon engines appeared in front of the Cadians' front line, catching the Cadians who had just finished their attack by surprise.

However, with their superb military literacy, the Cadian troops on the front line quickly stabilized their positions, and at the same time, troops were also transferred from the rear to support the front line.

The counterattack report from the Red Pirates was quickly conveyed upwards, but the frontline troops still hadn’t figured out the scale of the Red Pirates’ counterattack, and still thought it was a dying struggle. Even the commanders of the Cadian battle group still had some disputes over whether to report the incident. The "little trouble" of some general characters can be solved by themselves.

But when the news that the gap in the defense line was exposed ~www.readwn.com~ the enemy's heavy armored troops were overtaking them at an extremely fast speed finally came, Cadian's generals were all dumbfounded.

The Red Corsairs are still kept in super-heavy armor!

At this time, the fourth super-heavy armored company of the Red Pirates was less than 60 kilometers away from the headquarters of the Cadian battle group, and even the intimidating shelling of the powerful main gun of Hammer of the Tyrant had already started to set off tremors around the headquarters. Under such circumstances, Cadian generals can only hastily mobilize troops to block and quickly transfer the headquarters.

Only Dean's 1652nd Armored Regiment "Steel Lord" could arrive in time to stop the enemy.

However, when the 1652 Armored Regiment was urgently mobilized, the Cadian generals who were organizing the evacuation in a panic received another piece of good news.

A nearby Krieger 98 siege regiment happened to be in transfer. After receiving the battle warning, it quickly contacted the Cadian battle group and applied to go with the Cadian 1652 armored regiment to intercept the rampaging Red Pirates 4th super-heavy armor The company and the assault group behind it.

At the same time, the Tianshi battle group who received the counterattack signal from the red pirates also immediately became alert. The group leader Raif immediately took the Thunderhawk from the orbit to the hive capital, intending to lead the team to the battlefield in person.
