40K: Where did the Emperor go?

Chapter 142 Battle of the Fortress ([-])

Lorgar smelled the smell of gunpowder and scorching heat. Chaotic war is undoubtedly the favorite of all gods, and chaos is disorder.

Lorgar wants to spread his chaotic thoughts to be accepted and understood more widely, but the irony is that those who accept and understand will soon even lose their self-awareness and eventually become puppets of chaos and will soon be destroyed , Those who do not accept will be killed by him, and Lorgar himself is confused.

But he actually walked on this road, this road of betraying his father and killing his brother, he had to continue on, because he was the spokesperson of Chaos Faith.

And now they are going to attack a city, the city named New York. According to Kezi's prophecy and the information obtained, the Lorgar he summoned and Perturabo got together.

They captured the local city of New York and transformed it into a steel fortress.

Perturabo built a city wall around the entire city on the periphery. It is not a simple one-layer enclosure, but a multi-layered large city wall with a small city wall. The wall and the middle wall are a maze.

Small spaces are defended by mortal soldiers armed with melta weapons and plasma weapons as dominant obstacles.

Although they are mortal soldiers, in this kind of terrain, the interstellar fighters can't use it at all, and a forced attack will only cause heavy damage.

Alpharius came to the two brothers: "According to the news from the front, the wall is so thick and hard that the artillery can't penetrate it, and the multi-layer void shield propped up by Perturabo is very tightly defended. With our It will take a long time with him to fight down the troops."

Lorgar looked at the city wall and sighed: "Although I don't like fighting, I also know that Perturabo and his legion are said to have an indelible iron will. He and Dorne are the most proficient in offensive and defensive warfare among our brothers. .”

Alpharius: "You have to know how to defend in order to know how to break through the defense. Only those who are good at attacking tough battles are the most impeccable in defense. Is there nothing Lorgar's demon can do?"

Lorgar shook his head: "The emperor is inside, and the demons dare not approach there."

Luo Jia looked at Kezi: "You said we have a chance to win the Emperor, what should we do next?"

Ke Zi squeezed out a word in his hoarse voice: "Hit."

…………

The offensive and defensive battle began soon, and the newly appointed Pope Lorgar was comforting the soldiers in the trenches. The enemies on the opposite side were terrifying. There were many more Astartes and rebels than them, and even Titans.

They were seriously short of manpower, Luo Jia was a personal envoy, and he didn't like fighting, but the current situation required him to take up arms.

Because the twisted and evil demons and heretics on the opposite side do not accept the emperor's beliefs, nor do they have the three views of normal people, they only commit atrocities for their own happiness.

Luo Jia couldn't believe how there could be such a sect in the world, and how could so many people join and agree with such a sect belief, even himself in this world joined.

Seeing what those cult heretics did to people, Lorgar really didn't like this sect at all.

A huge golden sky projected from the inside of the fortress, covering the entire outer wall of the fortress and Lorgar's defense.

Daemon sorcerers enter the Veil and their sorcery is weakened and warded off, while followers of the Emperor find miracles often performed on their side.

The wounded who should have died of serious injuries slept through the night and inexplicably recovered the next day.

The bullets aimed by the rebel Astartes were inexplicably deflected, and the Astartes' marksmanship had an inexplicably low hit rate.

This forced many rebels to give up their long-range weapons and charge up to fight hand-to-hand, but it was difficult for the opponent to get close to them hiding behind multi-layered void shields and thick walled bunkers.

At this moment, Pope Lorgar was standing on the city wall, and he saw himself who deviated from the way of the emperor at a glance.

Chaos Luo Jia also saw the opposite self, and he became the opposite of himself, and both Luo Jia felt self-deprecating.

Alpharius said to Chaos Lorgar beside him, "Maybe we can suspend the attack. I'll dispatch my agency to find a way."

Chaos Lorgar: "Give it a try, but I don't think there's much hope."

The facts are indeed as what Chaos Lorgar said, Perturabo’s strict military officer system and Lorgar’s continuous missionary beliefs have completely controlled the people in the entire city from a rational and emotional point of view. An intermediary was dispatched in advance before the attack, but they were still crushed and unable to make any moves.

Lorgar's fanatical religious worship makes people willingly donate their private property and accept system management.

Perturabo laid out a perfect schedule and distribution of supplies, and installed monitoring equipment throughout the city.

This made Alpharius' informants progress extremely slowly whether it was from intelligence, internal assassination, or terrorist attack sabotage.

To really make a difference, you may need to accumulate actions on a yearly basis.

Chaos Lorgar and the others were still worrying about how to break into this fortress city, bundles of leaflets were thrown out of the city through a special projection device.

Leaflets were scattered everywhere along the wind, and Chaos Luojia grabbed the leaflets that drifted past him.

Chaos Luojia smashed the flyer, and distributed the persuasion letter to them on the opposite side. The persuasion letter written was very well written and ingenious.

Chaos Luojia knew that this order really hit his own weakness. This order was not only to persuade him to surrender, but also to disintegrate the morale of his side.

Lorgar's troops were not all Astartes, they were also made up of mortals, some of them were auxiliary troops and technical sergeants brought by him, and some were young men captured on this planet.

Alpharius picked up a flyer: "The spacing between the words is abnormal, and the pattern is also carefully designed. It is very likely that our people have their spies mixed in, and they are still passing on the news."

Ke Zi giggled and looked at Luo Jia: "Why didn't I realize that you are so smart, Luo Jia?"

Luo Jia threw the list on the ground and stepped into the mud: "I have known for a long time that believers of false emperors are everywhere. Many people swear allegiance to us on the surface, but in fact they still believe in false emperors. Buried is a disaster, and now it is backlashed."

Ke Zi: "Horus led half of the people to rebel against the father, which actually means that half of the people must also be loyal to the father. The current war situation is that there are some of them among them, and there must be some of them among us."
