Warhammer 40 A New Hope

Along the way, several small settlements and tribes have been destroyed by the Trampler, and no one can stop this huge metal monster.

The good news is that even the mechanical race cannot control this huge metal monster and can only guide its direction to a limited extent, otherwise the trouble will be even greater.

But in some ways, the trouble is big enough as it is now. . .

The battle record of the [Star Knights] had been spread through the Wendigo and subsequent ruins exploration battles. Although the transmission was slow due to the limited means of communication on this planet, it was still spread.

Now, knowing this, the managers of [Snow Wind City] hope to use the power of these super soldiers to solve the impending big trouble.

With the current defense power of [Snow Wind City], even if they can successfully destroy the out-of-control [Trampler], they will inevitably suffer heavy losses. And what they need to face is not only the huge war weapon - but also the large number of mechanical tribes that follow it.

In order to obtain the help of the [Star Knights], they promised that they would send someone to lead the way for them to the location of [Sky Axis Security] after the task was accomplished, and were willing to give a large sum of money or materials of equal value as the price for their help.

"We lack heavy weapons to deal with this heavily armored giant." Muro said. "It would be unwise to accept this mission."

"According to the existing design drawings, as long as we can destroy the central system or blow up its two legs, the mission can be accomplished." Yim said. "Thermal grenades can definitely do it."

"We don't have jetpacks, so how to get close is a big problem," Idel said. "Besides, there's a chance that some mechanical people will come and harass us while we're on this mission."

"Didn't the city's defense forces and mercenaries say they would help us intercept the possible arrival of the mechanical tribe?" (Yim)

"What if they can't stop it?" (Muro)

"The team of mechanical races advancing with the Tramplers includes a considerable number of advanced mechanical races and some mechanical races that we have never seen before. The city defense forces alone may not be able to intercept them." Idel said.

"Then, should we refuse this mission?" Yim said.

"...We will not sit idly by and watch a city belonging to humans being destroyed by the [Hateful Intelligence]." Idel was silent for a while, then said, "Just like when Chapter Master Atto Amrad ordered the ships to attack the [World Engine]..."

"We are the iron fist of the empire and the protectors of mankind. We will keep all invading enemies out of the empire - and the same is true in another world!"

"It's just that we need to recreate the situation back then, and this time the enemy is much weaker."

"Let us bring destruction to those hateful intelligences and let them know how powerful humans are!"

"Destruction is salvation!" (Star Knight Battle Cry)

183. The Rebellion of the Mechanical Race (IV)

Planet C02

This planet occupied by the mechanical race is now undergoing the third round of small-scale orbital bombardment.

The insistence of the Mechanicus prevented the expeditionary fleet from carrying out large-scale orbital bombardment and completely clearing out the hostile mechanical races on the planet, which once again caused the entire expeditionary fleet to consume a lot of time and energy.

Although the Mechanicus did provide enough weapons and equipment to ensure the advantage in ground warfare, the casualties were still not small.

In order to end this battle as quickly as possible, the gradually recovering [Master Control Brain] must be destroyed to prevent the full recovery of the mechanical race and their orderly attack.

But this is not easy. It requires the cooperation of a large number of Space Marines and mortal legions to break through the interception of a large number of mechanical tribes and a large number of defense facilities in order to achieve the goal.

The most important point is that the current expedition fleet does not know about the [Main Control Brain] - there are several high-energy reactions on this planet, which means that many large facilities have been awakened, which greatly makes the search for the [Main Control Brain] difficult.

Several [War Dog-class Titans] have been deployed to the ground, and various vehicles are also being continuously deployed to the ground as reconnaissance troops ascertain the physical conditions of each high-energy reaction location.

Of course, the people of the Mechanicus were not idle during this period. They also deployed a large number of ground troops to protect their research on various mechanical races and their facilities. During this period, these mechanical guys reaped a lot of rewards.

Considering the military strength of the expeditionary fleet, if nothing unexpected happens, there won't be too many problems in destroying the [Main Control Brain].

． ． ． If nothing unexpected happens ． ． ．

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

After a brief discussion, the team leader, Technical Sergeant Idel, reported the situation and their decision to the residence. Lorak, also a veteran, expressed his understanding and agreement.

Just like when Atto Amrad ordered the ships to rush into the Necrons' [World Engine], even if the road ahead is full of thorns, as protectors of humanity, they will not be afraid.

It's just one more charge. The enemy's strength is not a reason for them to retreat.

After deciding to take on this mission, Idel, as the team leader, immediately confirmed the heavy firepower they possessed with the administrator of [Snow Wind City].

A small number of Hellfire Launchers, Heavy Mortars, Cannon Turrets, and very rare [Doomsday Rocket Launchers (One-time)] and [Beam Swords].

There is a heavy robot in the city as one of the guard's defense forces, but it does not have many weapons - generally speaking, it is enough to deal with ordinary enemies.

In response to this, Idel immediately began the transformation and tactical deployment - loading as many weapons as possible onto various mechanical creations, and also loading weapons onto various vehicles.

They need to intercept the [Tramplers] outside the city, and then rely on the city's defense facilities to resist the subsequent attacks from the Mechanical Tribe.

There are not many melta grenades that can cause significant damage to the [Trampler], so there is only one attempt.

The ideal situation is to directly destroy its central system. If that is not possible, then blow up its two legs to paralyze it, but this requires getting close enough to the huge body of the Trampler.

The [Jumping Backpack] is not mentioned in the outing mission at this time, but fortunately there are similar things in this city. After certain combination and debugging, you can perform one or two flying jumps.

But there was only one such temporary device, which meant they only had one chance...

A series of preparations consumed a considerable amount of time, and now the enemy could be seen.

A battle that will determine the fate of this city is about to begin.

. . . . . .

The earth is shaking, and every movement of the huge [Trampler] will destroy everything around it.

Above this gigantic war machine, there were many small mechanical creatures flying, seemingly escorting it.

Behind the [Trampler], a large number of mechanical races followed it while ensuring their safety.

Not far away was the [Snow Wind City], where several heavy mortars had been set up, with shells loaded and aimed at the huge machines approaching them.

Bang bang bang bang bang－－!

Several high-explosive shells were fired at the [Trampler], the shells were launched into the air and fell towards it.

bite--!

boom! boom! boom! boom!

The transparent energy shield blocked the falling mortar shells, and the Trampler was not harmed at all in this round of bombardment.

Although the Mechanicals cannot control this huge war machine, they have a few light air units and can install a separate energy shield on it to block any attack.

After a round of shelling failed, the city defense forces could only respond according to the worst-case scenario.

Several light trucks equipped with mounted machine guns drove out of the city, followed by the conspicuous [Rhino armored personnel carrier], and finally several motorcycle vehicles.

The convoy sped along the way, heading towards the direction of the [Tramplers], with dust billowing along the way.

[Attention all units, you are about to enter the attack range, stay alert]

As warnings sounded on the communication channel, the huge war machine gradually became clear.

[Enemy attack! In the air! ]

Like manta rays, the mechanical race that used small anti-gravity devices to fly in the air formed a formation as the convoy approached, swooped down towards them, and opened fire with their impact rifles.

Biu! Biu! Biu!

boom!

The vehicle in the front was destroyed, an explosion occurred, and flames shot up into the sky.

The vehicles that followed avoided the exploded vehicle and began firing at the enemies in the air, but they were all avoided by the mechanical creatures in the air with their flexible movements.

Squeak--Biubiubiu!

The twin machine guns that were additionally installed on the [Rhino Troop Carrier] opened fire at this moment. Dense red light beams instantly enveloped an area of ​​air, shooting down half of the mechanical flying units.

The rest of the convoy cheered, but more enemies were coming at them from the air.

[Go according to plan! Team one will intercept them! ]

The order was given, and three vehicles broke away from the team, firing into the air while driving towards the right wing of the Tramplers.

Some of the enemies in the air were attracted away by one group, but more of them still flew towards the main force.

[Everyone, listen to my orders, get ready...]

At this time, in the distant [Snow Wind City], the mortar once again fired in the direction of [Trampler], but this time, it did not fire damaging shells, but...

smoke bomb

Bang bang bang bang--

The shells landed and white smoke exploded, blocking the view. The mechanical creatures swooping down from the sky all braked to a stop.

The next second, several grenades were thrown into the air, followed by an EMP shock wave.

The mechanical creatures that had just stopped in the air were hit one after another, their systems were paralyzed by EMP, they fell to the ground, and were then crushed by high-speed vehicles.

Only a few flying machines survived, and with their current numbers, it is difficult for them to pose a threat to the convoy.

At this moment, the entire convoy was very close to the huge [Trampler] machine, which also meant that the danger they faced began to rise sharply.

[Team Two, start attacking! ]

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—boom!

Several rockets flew out from the vehicle and hit one of the legs of the [Trampler] not far away, and the flames of the explosion rose again.

Bang--!

The intensive bombing successfully shot down a large piece of metal plate, but it did not have any substantial impact on the movement of this huge war machine.

At this moment, the huge mechanical leg was about to fall.

【Everyone get out of the way immediately! 】

Squeak—boom—bang!

The huge mechanical leg fell, and after a brief pause, a shock wave spread out with it as the center.

The surrounding trees and rocks were blown away one after another, and a vehicle that failed to dodge in time was also affected and was directly blown up and flew a long distance.

[No time to be sad, keep attacking! ]

After turning a wide corner, the convoy once again came to the vicinity of the mechanical leg that had been attacked before, and rockets sounded and flew away again.

Boom boom boom--!

The sound of intensive bombing sounded again, and several armor plates were destroyed and shot down. This time, the overall movement of [Trampler] was paused because of this attack.

Yim, who had already climbed to the top of the [Rhino Armed Forces Carrier], also noticed this brief pause. He immediately activated his disposable jet pack and flew towards the huge war machine.

[The target has taken off, we...]

[Report! The enemy's ground forces are attacking! It's...]

Biu--Boom!

A red beam of light flew from a distance and accurately hit a moving light truck. The vehicle immediately lost control and crashed into a rock.

Not far away, several wolf-shaped black advanced mechanical creatures were attacking them, and the various guns on their backs kept firing.

The plan was to use all kinds of anti-heavy firepower to attack the Trampler, causing it to pause briefly so that Yim could use the jetpack to climb onto its huge body and use the melta grenades to proceed to the next step of the mission - this was the plan.

When the Trampler paused, it not only meant that the human convoy was safe, but also that the mechanical ground forces following behind it could get close to this huge war machine.

[Motorcycle troops! Intercept them!]

The high-speed and swift motorcycle troops immediately drove away from the convoy and rushed towards the attacking wolf-type mechanical tribe, and the two sides began a fierce exchange of fire.

During this time period, the harassment attacks on the convoy must be carried out by high-speed units with thin armor. After all, it is unlikely that the large mechanical creatures with heavy armor can get here quickly.

This type of unit is difficult to hit from a distance when both sides are moving at high speed. In this case, the only option is to rely on equally fast and agile motorcycle units for close-range attacks, which is undoubtedly very dangerous.

At this time, the motorcycle troops had collided with the attacking wolf-type mechanical tribe. Several enemies were knocked down by the large-caliber shotguns carried by the motorcycle troops, but more humans were knocked down by the mechanical tribe.

Kai, who was sitting on one of the motorcycles, suddenly stood on the back seat of the motorcycle at this time, and jumped up when the vehicle he was riding approached an enemy.

Ding--rip it!

The [Beam Sword] in Kai's hand pierced into the body of the wolf-shaped mechanical creature that was rushing towards them without any hindrance, and its entire body fell to the ground due to the sudden attack.

Then, this primitive man jumped up again from the mechanical creature that he had knocked down and was sliding on the ground, in a posture that ordinary people could not do, and leaped towards another mechanical creature.

thump!

Tear it apart!

The [Beam Sword] pierced the enemy's head, and then Kai grabbed it and threw it at another enemy.

boom--!

The two collided, flew a long distance, and finally exploded.
