After lowering his arms, Huron stood up.
"I think you will understand that my visit to Angstrom this time is unusual. If I don't achieve my goal, I won't be able to go back to New Badab."
Suddenly, a cruel smile appeared on his thick lips.
"Today, all the main commanders are here, but a certain atmosphere here makes me realize that there is another guest who is not able to attend today, but is clearly with everyone. Who is that person?"
When everyone heard this, they looked at me and I looked at you, with doubts on their strange faces.
Then Huron gave his answer.
"This person is Soshyan!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
"Soshiyang came here and made a fool of himself, and by chance he won Angstrom. Although I admit that this was a bit clever, it was a bit too naive. It seemed like he had made a big bargain, but in fact he wasted his time when he was not strong enough. Placed in a quagmire from which there is no way out, here, I can tell you an important decision. You will launch an attack with all your strength. I have ordered Ingvar to contain the White Scar fleet, and at the same time, Honso will also resist. In the face of the Empire's attack, Soshyan of Angstrom will be isolated and helpless. The troops I brought will launch an attack from the other side of the galaxy, attacking from the east and west, and annihilate Soshyan's main force in one fell swoop, leaving him without a life to die. land!"
With that said, Huron picked up the wine glass from the tray raised by the servant on the side, and other Chaos Lords followed suit.
"Cheers to turning the tide of the Maelstrom!"
When everyone raised their cups, the Necrotic Lord standing next to Zhu Fu suddenly lowered his head and said softly to his old comrades beside him:
"Huron's thinking is too naive. The empire relies on the Forge World, and its troops and equipment are constantly flowing. Attacks from both sides also mean that the troops are more dispersed. With the current strength of the Red Pirates, the Titan Legion alone cannot handle it."
"Be careful. If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later."
"I'm not feeling optimistic."
After saying this, the Necrotic Lord shut his mouth.
Soon, the Red Pirates started a new round of attack in accordance with Huron's deployment. This time the focus of both sides changed from one to two. Previously, the two sides were centered around the planet Angstrom IV, but now due to Huron's Lun launched a new attack from the second direction, and the two sides added another battlefield, which was the satellite of Angstrom 3, Radium Guardian 2.
After briefly understanding the situation, Huron also agreed with Mogaro Karai's plan to advance step by step. After all, Angstrom, which relies on orbital defense and a large number of fighter planes, is really difficult to capture with the existing naval power, and it is likely to lose money again. The bottom is up, so using the planets and moons in the system to establish a stronghold and summoning demons to slowly overwhelm the defenses of the Forge World is indeed a good choice.
However, Huron felt that attacking from only one direction was too slow, so a second battlefield was needed.
Angstrom 3 is relatively close to the forge world, but it is a gaseous planet itself. The only thing it can stay on is its satellites, and among them, Radium Guardian 2 is the largest. The other satellites are too small and have almost no tactical value. Huron planned to capture Radium Guard 2, and then try to summon demons here to attack Angstrom or interfere with Angstrom's defense, creating opportunities for subsequent attacks on the Forge World.
Soon, the Red Pirates' fleet approached Radium Guard 2.
Naturally, all these actions cannot escape Angstrom's large-scale detection equipment. Although there is a certain degree of subspace interference, the technical priests overcome all difficulties and still ensure that they monitor the entire galaxy. This is also the reason why the Red Pirates' repeated attacks have been frustrated. Their fleets and troop movements cannot escape Imperial surveillance unless they are able to destroy the monitoring instruments and radars on the Angstrom circular orbital station that are larger than mountain peaks.
Of course, they are working on it.
After Soshyan learned that the Red Pirates had new moves, he responded immediately and mobilized forces to support Radium Guard 2.
In fact, that satellite has long been reinforced into a solid fortress. There are underground bunkers dug in all directions inside the satellite. A large number of Skitarii are defending in the cave-like stronghold. The Red Pirates will be beaten here and their heads will be bloody.
Therefore, although he mobilized his strength, Soshyan was not in a hurry to immediately invest in support. He had to wait for the moment when the Red Pirates' attack was weak to launch a counterattack and give the opponent more blood.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the Skitarii of Radium Guard 2 can inflict enough damage on the opponent——
"Command, 0-0-1-0-1.."
Amidst the binary blessings, the rail rifle made a sound of lightning and thunder, and then shot out a wide beam that split the air, splitting a huge figure in two that was trying to find cover in the narrow passage.
At the same time, with the sound of heavy footsteps, a detachment of heavily armed servitors of the Iron Cavalry-class Breakthrough slowly rolled over, the arc cannons on their arms shining with arcs of death.
As an armed servitor of the Iron Cavalry class, the Breaker has a highly recognizable tracked chassis like other Iron Cavalry classes. The Breaker is not only equipped with deadly hydraulic claws and a heavy arc cannon, but also has a central tower like an iron tower. Armor protection, which allows it to play the role of frontline charge breakthrough.
They were commanded by the chaplain Nasu Mastenbrooke.
"Army" is both a position and a mid-level priest title, representing the successor commander of the Skitarii system.
The image of most military priests is usually that of fanatical followers of the Mecha in robes. Their flesh and blood have been mechanically strengthened several times, and they often carry a dazzling array of weapons, especially the unique spherical body.
This transformation, which is common in military priests, is mainly based on a unique driving source device. This device allows them to float more than ten centimeters above the ground. On the other hand, it also makes the military priests almost like giant batteries that can be guided softly. and use the divine power to charge the units under his command.
At the same time, the military priests also have a large number of ancillary equipment, from telex overload servers and high-energy converters to brain core stimulation devices, all of which fully reflect the pure power of the machine god. Most of the war machines were driven by his praise of machines, destroying all kinds of heretics while advancing.
But this also makes the figure of the military priest look very bloated, and with the round metal body, it is even a bit funny.
Nassau Mastenbrooke is an exception. There are a few people like him among the military priests who care about the shape. Therefore, they will not shape the body into a spherical shape, but a shape that they like more.
Nasu chose to keep his upper body in human form, while his lower body was made up of tiny metal tentacles like jellyfish. A large number of devices were installed in the backpack behind him, and the backpack was also shaped into a thin cyborg shape without a lower body. It looked like a deformed brother resting on his shoulders.
What he did was also related to an experience in his past.
Nasu once had a twin brother, but he died trying to save him during an expedition to the ruins, so Nasu transformed his own accessory backpack according to his brother's former appearance.
This may seem a bit weird or even heretical to some, but Nassau believes it is a reasonable way to pay tribute.
At least he could remind himself that he was once a human being and had a blood relative.
