Warhammer in a box

Chapter 208 War Mobilization
It was not until Terra's army completely crossed the Blackfire Pass that Redolf ​​collapsed weakly in his chair, as if he had just walked through the gates of hell.

Among the 20,000-strong Terra army, there are not only fully armed soldiers, but also some demon hunters, and Gerhardt, the Inquisitor, is also in the team.

There are always some cultists in the brutal wars.

In addition to the demon hunters, Rebecca and her nuns are also in the team.

It's just that some of the usually holy nuns seem to be a little different from before.

A familiar figure also appeared beside Rebecca, that was Sister Milia, the Martyrs' Sisters of Battle.

"Sister Miria, the nuns you trained will be tested soon."

Rebecca said with a smile.

And Milia also looked at the fifty special nuns.

Miria also began to establish a congregation of martyr sisters belonging to this world in the Middle Ages.

After screening a large number of nuns, the most pious ones with combat talents were selected into the order and trained how to fight.

Millia has lowered her requirements, but still can only barely select this few people.

And the weapons and equipment were also castrated.

The force feedback armor and power swords are certainly not enough, but we still have the finely crafted weapons debugged by the priests.

It seems that the nuns always have an unclear relationship with the state religion. Even in the Middle Ages, these nuns still chose to cooperate with Rebecca.

Rebecca was also happy to cooperate with them. The church she led was indeed very influential, but most of the believers were just civilians.

The church lacked an armed force that it could command on a permanent basis, and Rebecca and Miria happened to hit it off.

"Bishop Rebecca, I will manifest the Emperor's glory together with these daughters of the Emperor."

It will take at least a day for the vanguard troops to reach the battlefield, which is also Terra's shortcoming, the lack of air power and the ability to deliver quickly.

And for the whole day, Bourne and his soldiers will have to hold out on their own.

At this time in Bourne, the Terra soldiers on the low city wall continued to pour ammunition at the dense group of moles.

A large number of ratmen corpses had fallen in front of the city wall.

Inside the city, ratmen kept pouring out of the sewers and were fighting with the soldiers.

All the men were armed and forced to fight the ratmen, whether they wanted to or not.

But this time, even with the presence of Terran soldiers, the city walls were almost lost.

The enemy they faced this time was no longer a single clan, but a mixed force of different ratmen clans, and the number was far more than usual.

The dimensional stone catapults continuously threw huge stones at the city walls. After just a few rounds, the walls could no longer hold out, and the weapons teams and grenadiers also kept attacking.

The Grey Prophets among the Skaven released Skaven spells, and dimensional stone lightning struck the crowd, instantly taking the lives of several soldiers.

Bourne held the bolter in his hand and pulled the trigger. Skaven were also chaotic creatures, and the damage bonus brought by the relic allowed Bourne to kill the third group of rat trolls.

But just as he was about to kill the remaining rat trolls, there was another burst of black smoke, and the assassin master of Clan Eshin jumped out from the shadows and stabbed Bourne directly in the vitals.

The sudden attack caught everyone off guard, and as the dagger was about to pierce Bourne's eyes, he immediately activated the Emperor's Holy Fire state.

The holy flames caused the chaos-born Skaven to howl and jump back.

But before Bourne could aim and shoot, the Eshin assassin immediately dropped a hidden bomb under his feet and disappeared. Bourne felt that this was the closest he had ever been to death...

"Bourne! We can't hold on any longer! We must retreat!"

There were also many bullet holes on Ferrell's carapace, left by Rat Tai's gun.

After hearing Ferrer's words, Bourne looked at the collapsed crowd. He also knew that they would not be able to hold on with so few people.

With reluctance and anger, Bourne ordered everyone to retreat, but the entire city was surrounded, and there were Skaven troops in the rear direction. How should they evacuate?

"Brother Ferrell, get everyone to gather at the east gate! Including all civilians!"

"Bourne? There are also ratmen troops behind us. If we rush out directly, we will die!"

"Have you forgotten that we still have an army?"

"Ok?"

Along with the sound of running in the valley, the earth shook and the controlled ogre troops rushed out of the valley. This was the retreat route that Bourne left for all of them.

Nearly a hundred ogres seemed powerful, but facing the dense artillery fire and warp stone bullets from the ratmen, they probably couldn't even withstand one round.

But the ogres who suddenly appeared at this moment acted as a surprise force.

The ogres charged directly into the ratman army that was cutting off Bourne's retreat. The ratmen had not expected that the battle would continue until now and there would still be ambushes.

Skarrag and the other ogres swept away the enemies in front of them like a bulldozer.

This also opened the way for Bourne and others.

"Bourne! I didn't expect you had this trick up your sleeve!" Ferrer shouted excitedly.

All the remaining people in the city seemed to see hope of survival and rushed out under the leadership of the soldiers.

Pascret, the Skaven general, was also the vanguard of this expedition.

He was furious when he saw that the human who caused serious casualties to his troops had actually run away.

But there is nothing I can do.

The war against Tyrell was a crushing victory, but unexpectedly, they suffered defeat in this small town not long after.

"Those weapons? That city called Terra again? Damn human stuff! But aren't they in the human empire? Why are they here?!"

Pascreet said, shaking his fat body.

But no matter what, the war has already started. No matter who the opponent is, there is no reason to stop. The Skaven will surely occupy this world!
The newly established defense line became extremely passive with the fall of Zorak, and Bourne entered the city of Matoka with tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians who had escaped.

At this time, most of the personnel in Akendorf were pulled here to reinforce the second line of defense, and the number of ogre troops was sharply reduced to 50 people after leaving behind the rear troops.

Lord Durant, who was working on the city wall, looked at the people fleeing in panic and murmured in disbelief: "An army like this has lost?"

However, seeing this scene, he seemed to see hope of escape again. Such a large number of outsiders would surely make the Terra people here too busy to take care of them, and he could also escape from this city. In his eyes, the Terra people were just a group of perverts.

"Open the city gate!"

The remaining Terra soldiers immediately welcomed Bourne and his companions in.

The refugees also brought the terror of the Skaven to the city, and if public order was any indicator, the entire city was on the brink of riot.
