StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Chapter 265 Bloody Battle Ma Sara
"It's springtails, hydralisks, ultralisks, and swarms of scorpions whose 'limited brain capacity' can only support the most primitive bloodlust and bloodlust."

Sarah Kerrigan planted her bright red Revolutionary Army battle flag in the red sandy soil of Mar Sara, grabbing the butt of her C-10 "can" shotgun from behind her shoulder And pulled it out like a giant sword behind his back, the momentum really seemed to be waving a big sword.

With the crisp click of pulling the bolt, Kerrigan raised her wild eyebrows: "Stand behind me, honey."

"I don't want you to say that." Augustus frowned when he heard the scorpion. In his impression, this kind of giant scorpion is often associated with poisonous mist and virus plague.

Scorpions are rare in their population, and whenever they appear on a large scale, it means that the scorpions are concentrating their attention on this area. The humans who fight these monsters can be said to be the most unfortunate group in this world one of the people.

While Augustus was speaking, Corporal Faraday had already approached him with a dozen members of the marshal's elite guard.

"Go to the front." Augustus took a C-14 electromagnetic rifle from Corporal Faraday, and walked towards the soldiers of the Revolutionary Army who were forming a defensive line behind the refugees, wearing crimson power armor The soldiers of the revolutionary army and the arc tanks and Goliath armed robots behind them have formed an indestructible front at this time.

In front of the battle line was the red dust, which looked like an incoming sandstorm several miles long and ten miles wide.In the rising dust, the fangs and claws and mottled skin of the alien creature could be faintly seen. They howled and made the sound of sharp spikes rubbing against the carapace.

The rustling of the zerg was just like what Augustus used to hear in the summer fields, the murmur of swarms of insects.

The arc tanks of the Revolutionary Army continued to fire at the marching Zerg, the sound of the cannons rumbled, and the landing of the shells set off dust, blood, flesh tissue and carapaces with chitin hard shells all over the sky.

The swarms were not disorderly when they charged, they were like an orderly army advancing and retreating.Zerglings and giant ultralisks charged ahead, followed by hydralisks and scorpions.

Because the number of Zerg swarms is too large, even if the driver of the Arc Tank does not aim, every shot can hit the Zerg's head.

Even so, such casualties are really insignificant for a huge swarm.The eggs they hide in the underground insect nests and hatcheries can hatch more zerg at any time to make up for this loss. As long as the insect nests have not been destroyed, the cerebrum Yak, the leader of the Yemengarde swarm, will Able to summon its clan members continuously.

"There are at least 10,000+ of these zerg. Jimmy, where are your people?" Augustus said on the commander's comm channel.

"The rangers and I were still complaining about this matter just now, there are so many bugs." Reynolds responded immediately through the communication channel, his voice was mixed with the whistling wind, obviously the Ma Sara cowboy was having a good time Ride a vulture car.

"All in all, I'm with over 2000 Rangers on the left and right flanks of your current Zerg force. Try to kill as many zerg as you can with frag grenades, then seal the caves with dynamite."

"While they will break out of the ground again soon, this will presumably be delayed for a while."

"Hurry up, cowboy, time waits for no one." Augustus ran all the way, helping up some fallen refugees from time to time.Fortunately, the physique of the Mar Sara people is far stronger than that of the people in the Inner World. Even though they have traveled a long distance, they can still speed up and run fast again under the threat of death.

If Omega Squadron hadn't taken all the weapons of the Mar Sara, they would have fought to the death with the invading Jormungandr swarm.

Among such a group of people, hundreds of soldiers of the Revolutionary Army ran against the direction of the crowd towards the direction where the Zergs attacked, leaving behind their broad backs.

"I'm as fast as the wind." Reynolds said, "Haha. Don't rush me, Augustus, I'll take care of those bugs right away."

Renault's troops have the largest number of vehicles in the entire Revolutionary Army, including a large number of Vulture vehicles, command vehicles, reconnaissance vehicles, and Camerian light tanks loaded with 12mm machine guns.

It was Raynor's rangers who were responsible for reconnaissance, harassment, and raids in the perilous Mar Sara. They always appeared when a certain settler team was most in danger, and after successfully repelling the Zerg, they left like a whirlwind. Go and retire.

While talking to Renault, Augustus still had the energy to run. His well-trained body was not inferior to the strongest fighter in the Revolutionary Army.When Augustus felt that the defense line was approaching, the mighty Jormungandr swarm was already very close to them.

In front of Augustus, several rows of Revolutionary Army soldiers were raising their Gauss rifles to aim at the vanguard of the Zerg that was getting closer to the front line.The scene in front of him reminded Augustus of the first time he set foot on the battlefield, but the enemy he faced was no longer the Kel-Morians, but the boundless swarm of insects.

The badge of the whip ring is painted on the shoulder armor of every revolutionary soldier's right arm, and among them, the political commissar of the Pantalon Revolutionary Party who is in charge of ideological work will also paint the emblem of the Revolutionary Party on his armor. Mark - A panda with piercing eyes.

And Augustus seemed to be able to hear the heartbeats of these soldiers and see the cold sweat on their foreheads.

Fighting against humans is very different from fighting against Zerg. These xenomorphs meet all human imaginations of grotesque and terrifying xenomorphs. Eat it alive.If this is already quite a tragic way to die, infection is the most terrible end.

Considering that they will be fighting Zerg, the recruits in the Revolutionary Army boot camp must touch Zerg corpses or live samples before they graduate, and they cannot leave the barracks until they can overcome the fear of the Zerg. to the period of actual combat.

The Tyranid Federation does not need to consider this, they can add combat skills for Zerg and Protoss at the same time when implanting combat skills into the brains of resocialized soldiers.

"Damn it. Damn pests." Kerrigan cursed and raised the C-10 shotgun he was holding, turning on the optical sight.

The first to fire is the Goliath armed robot. Their cockpit above the ground can control the overall situation. The weapon system will automatically lock on the running Zerg and use 25mm cannon and missiles to smash the leaping Zergling into a ball Rotten flesh mixed with bullets, carapace, and flesh.

There are flying carapaces and screams of alien monsters everywhere, and all kinds of roars seem to be roaring at the same time as thousands of creatures from hell.

"Fire!" Commanding this unit was a lieutenant colonel from the second squad of Heavenly Demons, who has now become an accomplished senior commander.

Following the Lieutenant Colonel's order, the soldiers of the Revolutionary Army couldn't wait to pour the bullets in their rifles, and the intensive firepower immediately cleared a large area of ​​running Zerglings. The magnetic nail bullets penetrated the relatively fragile carapace of the Zerglings and knocked They beat into a bloody sieve.

And even with dozens of bullets in the body, even if the brain has been penetrated, the springtail can still run more than ten yards before dying before falling to the ground.

Between the springtails are huge ultralisks, they are huge, far surpassing human tanks and all mechs.At first glance, Ultralisk's thick-limbed walking feet and the pair of curved bony blades in its jaw resemble an Earth-era mammoth, but its head has multiple scarlet eyes, drooping tentacles, and drips. No amount of drool can connect it to mammals on Earth.

The Zergs that appeared in Mar Sara far surpassed the Zergs in Cha Sara, both in terms of type and quantity, and the number of Zergs on the surface of the planet alone exceeded 1 million.

Ultralisks, these tens of feet tall monsters can almost ignore the shooting of human Gauss rifle bullets with their thick carapace behind them. Even the cannons of Goliath armed robots and air Wraith fighters are just scratching their heads.

Every now and then a zerg fell under human fire and bullets, but then more zerg fell.When the frontmost zerg came within fifty yards, the revolutionary soldiers began to throw the electromagnetic grenades they carried on their bodies. With the blessing of the power armor servo system, the distance they threw was even further.

After Moria and his party, the revolutionary army had no shortage of bullets and grenades, and they even had enough surplus that they could throw out crates and crates of grenades.The blue electric pulse released by the electromagnetic grenade immediately engulfed the frontmost zerg and blasted them into a mess.

But at the same time, more springtails jumped from the charred corpse, and the Hydralisk also entered its attack range, and its arched back immediately ejected deadly spines wrapped in green acid.These sharp spines pierced the armor of the revolutionary army in the front row in an instant, piercing their flesh.

Fighting the Zerg on the open plains is almost tantamount to asking for death, but at this time the Revolutionary Army is already the only barrier between the people and the Zerg.

If it was the past, Augustus would not have chosen to fight the Zerg here anyway, but he could not let hundreds of thousands of Mar Sara people be slaughtered by the Zerg.

Augustus could also feel this despair fighting side by side with these warriors. Human weapons are not impenetrable to the carapace of Zerg, and even automatic weapons can hurt little monsters like Zerglings, but The problem is that the swarms are simply too numerous.

It only took a few minutes from appearance to hand-to-hand contact with the Revolutionary Army. After paying tens of thousands of casualties, the raging swarm rushed to the front of the Revolutionary Army soldiers' defense line under artillery fire.Swarms of screaming zerglings fell on the armor of the soldiers and tore them to shreds.

When a huge Ultralisk rushed into the middle of the Revolutionary Army's battle line, the Revolutionary Army began to retreat steadily. Its head shook its huge "long teeth" and swept left and right, knocking over a dozen people in power armor each time. Soldiers, trample their armor like a soda can.

The wailing in the communication channel continued one after another, and the sound of bones breaking and gnawing flesh never subsided.

Augustus could even see the spikes and protruding claws on the back of the springtail in front of him, and the squeak of the Hydralisk's spine penetrating the armor was endless.When Augustus kept shooting, there was even a helmet full of holes rolling to Augustus' feet.

Right in front of Augustus, a Hydra Hydralisk pounced on the front line and used the bone scythe ejected from its forelimbs to cut off a young Keha Revolutionary Army soldier in half.

Immediately, flesh and blood flew all over the place, and the bright red blood splashed on Augustus's face.

Kerrigan fired a steady shot at the Hydralisk, and the 25mm canister bullet passed through one of the Hydralisk's eyes, killing the monster instantly.

Hydra's snake-like body fell to the ground, and the end of one forelimb stabbed into the chest of a revolutionary soldier.The bone sickle passed through the chest, bringing out dripping blood.Just like that, the soldier who had just passed his 20th birthday this year fell to the ground while "embracing" the Hydra Hydralisk.

"Stick to the line of defense, I am Marshal Augustus, and I am fighting side by side with you." Augustus shouted in the communication to maintain the morale of his soldiers.His words more or less inspired the warriors who were facing countless zerg.

The thought that they were fighting alongside the greatest warriors in the history of the Tyranids filled their hearts with boundless courage.

Retreating at this moment is undoubtedly the most stupid decision, because it is impossible for humans to outrun the Zerg.In the face of fear, a retreat would immediately turn into a catastrophic rout.

Just when this was about to turn into a catastrophic defeat, the Air Force of the Revolutionary Army arrived just in time.

More than a hundred bombers and Cerberus fighters modified from APOD-33 transport planes flew across the low sky and dropped a large number of incendiary bombs and pulse bombs to the ground, creating a trail of flames and charred corpses in front of the Revolutionary Army's line. constitute the dead zone.

Augustus had already called for air support, and when the line of defense was in jeopardy, the formation of bombers passing through the air wiped out a large number of Zerg on the ground, greatly reducing the pressure on the Revolutionary Army.At the same time, Raynor also brought good news. His rangers filled the tunnel entrance of the Jormungandr Swarm, and the attack of the Swarm slowed down.

With the support of the air force brought in later, the revolutionary army barely resisted the first wave of attack of the swarm, and after paying the lives of hundreds of people and two Goliath armed robots, they barely solved a few of them. The Thunder Beast that broke into the line of defense.

Ten minutes after the encounter broke out, the Jormungandr swarm finally retreated.They killed more than 1000 Revolutionary Army soldiers and mutilated many more before withdrawing.

Dead bodies littered the field in front of Augustus, and since there were also zergs from humans, a thick layer of blood stained the broken chitin carapace and the power armor made of new alloys and plastic ceramics.

On the battlefield, only the flag of the Revolutionary Army was still fluttering in the wind, and the once bright red flag was also stained with blood and acid.

"Have all the refugees left?" The smell of blood made Augustus dizzy.

"Officers at Mar Sara say they've entered the city," Kerrigan said.

"Bring back all the remains of the victims." Augustus ordered in the communication channel: "I will not allow them to be infected by the swarm and become monsters and walking dead. I will take them home."

　I will have a day off tomorrow, and my eyes are not very comfortable. It should be due to overuse of the eyes.
