StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Chapter 349 The place is under the protection of the revolutionary army
Easter walked in front of Augustus Mengsk, opened his blue eyes and carefully observed the face of the handsome gray-haired man in front of him.He is very handsome, as if he stepped out of a poster.

The soldiers gathered around the Marshal of the Revolutionary Army like stars holding the moon, and all of them watched his every move closely, and regarded his every word as a golden rule.

Even at such a young age, Augustus is already the supreme leader of the rising revolutionary army of Korha.The Tyranid Federation's deliberate smearing and framing of Augustus made him almost known to everyone, and his glorious and stalwart positive image slowly became more and more shining with the invasion of the Zerg.

In the first all-out war between humans and alien races in Koplu, the Tyranid Federation, which only cared about preserving the core world, completely lost control of most of the marginal planets, and the reputation and support accumulated by the Keha Revolutionary Army in those worlds But it is increasing day by day.

Thus, the name Augustus Mengsk is heard more frequently in a region such as Helsanne, which falls within Tarsonis' sphere of influence.Even though they didn't want to talk too much about the character, the UNN news from Tarsonis would bring up the name Augustus Mengsk and his evil, notorious rebels over and over again.

In the past two or three years, Augustus Mengsk has already become an indispensable figure in the UNN daily news: he is the greatest enemy in human history, and his crimes are too numerous to list.Remember his extremely sinful face so that you can help the government forces arrest him.

"You, you are Augustus Mengsk!" Easter realized that Augustus was the man he always wanted to be.

"Big hero!" Lorraine shouted with snot and tears.

"I'm not a hero," said Augustus. "My boy, I'm far from being a hero."

At this time, an accompanying doctor brought two cups of hot tea and solid cocoa sticks that had just been brewed with hot water.This male doctor with short brown hair was once Angus Mengsk's personal doctor and health consultant, and now he is appointed to take charge of Marshal Augustus Mengsk's daily diet and health care work.

It's worth mentioning that Lisa Keshidi, the Devil of Heaven, was a well-deserved candidate for the job, but she clearly failed.

"A genuine compliment is worth a thousand false flattery," says Sarah Kerrigan.

"I am very popular among my people," Augustus said with relief. "This is one of the best news I have heard in months."

"Everyone knows about you," Easter said.

"Thank you," Lorraine said to the doctor as he took the hot drink.

"I know, whether it's a bad impression or a good impression, in short, they all know that there is probably someone like me in the universe." Augustus looked at the two siblings seriously for a while: "The enemy's attacks and slanders can't be defeated. Defeating the revolutionary army will only make us stronger."

"Boys, tell me what's going on here?" he asked.

"Zerg." Easter paused, feeling extremely angry at this term that has only become widely known in the past year.

"They killed everyone in the town, leaving no one behind."

"The current settlers lack self-defense weapons. Not all marginal planets are Mar Sara and Abaddon." Kerrigan said: "The federal army should have protected this place, but they failed to do so."

The Tyrann Federation used the victory of the guild war to wipe out many unstable factors, but people soon discovered that after the war, their lives have not become better than before.

On the contrary, the guild war did not destroy the Tyrannian Federation, but the people at the bottom who supported the entire Federation.In fighting the Kel-Morians, the spirit of nationalism in common hatred temporarily ignores the significant decline in living standards caused by the war.

The people of the Tyrannian Federation can endure oppression and exploitation more than the professional politicians and nobles in the Federal Parliament imagined, but that doesn't mean that they are donkeys who will never complain and will never resist.

"My warriors have taken control of Helsingne, and all the Zerg that invaded here will be wiped out." Augustus said: "Humanity has not lost hope."

At this time, there were many APOD transport ships in the sky, some of which were modified heavy-duty carrier aircraft, and the roar of the transport aircraft passing through the low altitude was deafening.High-speed wraith fighters continued to drive out of the clouds and headed for the distance, and the scene of a large number of aircraft flying across the boundless fields was extremely spectacular.

Easter had never seen this kind of scene since he was born, and Hailsann had always been a relatively peaceful colonial world, because it was close to Tarsonis Prime, and even there were very few signs of pirate activities here.

"Where did they come from? Bronte, Sigma, or Jotun?" Easter said the names of several planets that have been frequently attacked by Zerg recently.

By the second half of the year, the plague of insects had affected hundreds of colonized worlds, and even the important core worlds were under heavy siege.Not to mention defeating the Zerg and reclaiming the lost territory, whether the Tyranid Federation can hold the rest of the world has become a questionable question.

"The DNA of the zerg here is exactly the same as that of the zerg that invaded Bronte, and it is a branch of the Garm swarm." Augustus said: "The zerg in each world are not exactly the same, and they will be based on Different worlds and enemies have evolved completely different characteristics."

"They will also assimilate local creatures to fight for the swarm. The mastiff-like creatures that appeared in Hailsane are mutated from dogs. They are smaller than springtails, but they are also more ferocious."

"It's too dangerous here until my warriors cleanse the zerg out of Hailsanne. Get on the ship and they'll take you to a settlement sixty miles away, where there are thousands of others like You are the same person who has to deal with this situation," he said.

"No, I want to stay." Easter said firmly: "I want to avenge my parents!"

"You don't understand anything, Easter, you're just making trouble for them." Lorraine always thinks more than Easter: "If you go to the battlefield, they will send at least one more person to protect you." you."

"Then I will join the Revolutionary Army." Easter said.

"You're too young, kid." Augustus put it more euphemistically: "We can't take you."

Perhaps only Augustus would be willing to listen carefully to a child's speech, while Edmund Duke, a noble general who was mixed up as a general by virtue of his background and qualifications, would only say that this little country bumpkin really didn't understand.

"Okay." Easter quickly accepted the news, and he also knew that if he joined the army, the Revolutionary Army really had to find a pair of the smallest power armor.

"When you grow up, there are many opportunities to go to the battlefield." Augustus watched the physically and mentally exhausted siblings step onto the transport ship, looking at the deceleration propeller used by the transport ship to decelerate and land in the atmosphere Slowly put away.

"At that time, the door of the Revolutionary Army will be open to you at any time." Augustus did not despise him because the other party was just a child.

Augustus waved his hand, and when the hatch of the transport ship was slowly closed, the gentle expression on his face faded little by little, until finally only the cold determination remained.

"The boy has some kind of psychic talent, but it's not obvious, I think he may have a level 4.5. Easter has the X factor, which is why he always hits the bullet." Kerrigan said: "He was a natural soldier, and most importantly, he followed your example."

"Like our sniper Rick...what a good boy." Unsurprisingly, Augustus was convinced once again that his life's purpose was to protect such a man.

Augustus is not the only one in this universe who shouts for freedom and truth, but he is definitely the one who always practices his ideas.

"Where are the people from Rundstein?" asked Augustus.

"In the New Boston area, there are mountainous landforms rarely seen in Helsingne, covering a large tract of vineyard plantation area." Kerrigan was familiar with the reports reported to the Marshal's headquarters by various troops.

Augustus served as military advisor, senior staff officer, and aide-de-camp, but in the end, it was Kerrigan who assumed these duties.As the most accomplished Ghost agent Tarsonis has ever seen, Kerrigan is versatile in all aspects, and she learns quickly even those new things that have never been seen before.

The position and prestige of the marshal in the revolutionary army has long been unparalleled, so he doesn't have to worry about losing power.Kerrigan obeyed every word of Augustus, and she still loved Augustus as deeply as a 16-year-old girl in the past, so that she hardly had any opinions or demands on Augustus raise objections.

"Order him to immediately head towards Sigis, where there is a Zerg secondary main nest that has been severely damaged by protoss artillery fire. All tanks and fighters in the area will provide support. No matter what happens, give him the order Always the same—forward,” said Augustus.

Even without a combat map by his side, Augustus was familiar with the landmarks on it.

"Did the Duke guys take Nucomber?" he asked Kerrigan again.

"They've entered the city, where people line the streets to welcome the Revolutionary Army," Kerrigan replied.

As a former Federal Navy squadron, Alpha Squadron still retains the past painting, but adds the emblem of the Revolutionary Army to the armor.In any case, the people of Helsingne don't really care about these differences. The livery of each unit of the Federation Army has a variety of colors.

"I hope that guy Duke will remember what I said... Take his bad temper, he must be patient with civilians." Augustus said.

"Jackson Holer's Nova Squadron and Tassadar's templars defeated a hive force in the Gilan area. Holer went to the front in person, and a political commissar sent to the Nova Squadron saw him on the battlefield It released spiritual power far beyond ordinary people."

Kerrigan went on to say, "The protoss reportedly left after the battle. They rushed on to the next very intense battle without stopping."

"When the war is over, I want to honor the bravery of all the soldiers who fought," Augustus said.

At this time, some kind of sharp and terrifying howl suddenly sounded around, and the soldiers beside Augustus stood shoulder to shoulder, looking around vigilantly.

"Draw your gun, load it, and prepare to fire!" Corporal Faraday, the captain of the marshal's guard, immediately ordered.

Kerrigan glanced around. "Don't worry, it's just a wounded Hydralisk."

"Find it," Augustus said. "Enough live samples may allow our scientists to find out why the zerg's claws are sharper than titanium blades."

Corporal Faraday waved his hand, and several soldiers walked in that direction under the leadership of a sergeant. It didn't take long before they found a giant Hydra Hydralisk whose back was blown off by an electromagnetic grenade.

Even with an unimaginably fatal injury, the Hydralisk is still alive, and according to the research of human scientists, no matter how serious the fatal injury is, the Zerg can slowly heal through the self-healing function in the body.

The zerg's resistance to many viruses and its powerful tissue self-healing ability could also bring leaps in the medical development of humans, and humans are learning new technologies from their enemies, including the protoss.

The Hydra Hydralisk, which was still roaring, was immediately dragged onto a transport ship. Several engineering soldiers used a laser saw to cut off the two pairs of forelimbs of the Hydralisk like a crab, and dragged it onto the transport ship with a crane. cargo hold.

After that, Augustus walked a few more steps on the field ridge and looked in the direction where the Reaper Company left.He is waiting for further reports from Renault and others so that he can decide where to go next.

At this moment, it is noon, the sky is as blue as washing, and the green wheat waves are like the ocean.Augustus had only seen such a scene in Agria before. Such a large-scale fertile plain is very suitable for mechanized farming methods, while the countryside like Keha IV is between mountains and forests, which is more lifelike. .

It has to be said that looking at the forest from the field ridge in Helsingne is a very spectacular sight. The surging waves of wheat are like the ocean, extremely vast and misty.People standing in the boundless fields seem to be drowned by the rolling waves, which makes people feel a suffocating shock.

Augustus couldn't help wondering how many colonies Helsingne could feed, and how many people that food could support.The food production in Agria, the territory of the Revolutionary Army, has increased steadily with the influx of Keha immigrants, but it still cannot be compared with Heinsain.

Unfortunately for Augustus, he was unable to take it away from the Tyranid Federation.Hilsane was an extremely important planet in the planned counteroffensive against the Commonwealth world.

Capturing Helsingne will surely make the Tyrannian Federation sleepless.

"Raynor just reported that he has taken Haytham County, where there is a broadcasting building that can broadcast to the entire planet." Kerrigan asked.

"He wants you to say something—it better sound a little pompous."

"Did he really say that?" said Augustus.

"The place has been placed under the protection of the Revolutionary Army."
