Plunder the Heavens from Warhammer

Chapter 130 Planetary Orbital Defense Cannon

Looking at Tucker, who was covered in blood and rushed into the demon's nest single-handedly like a god of death, Alvin suddenly felt that he had somewhat underestimated this veteran who retired from the Star Army.

The Catachan hunk is worthy of his reputation!

Wiping off the sticky blood on his face, Tucker turned and stared at Alvin, revealing his eight neat teeth: "Boy, you better hold on for me, otherwise we will have no hope!"

As he was speaking, the roaring and mechanical chainsaw sword brutally chopped a demon into pieces. The minced meat mixed with disgusting blood sprinkled down like a waterfall.

Even though Alvin had an excellent mental quality, he still couldn't control his instinctive reaction when the fishy blood and flesh were poured on his body. His stomach was churning and he almost vomited!

"Now, I will take over the command!"

Tucker's fierce and violent aura frightened the young men of the 3rd Company. He gave a stern order: "Everyone, build three echelon defense lines according to the amount of ammunition left, and follow me to retreat in turn. No one is allowed to leave their posts without permission!"

After witnessing Tucker's fierce performance, although the 3rd Company believed in Tucker's ability, they still subconsciously looked at Alvin, as if to seek his opinion.

"Just do as he says."

Alvin was already very weak, even his voice became weak, and every time he spoke or even breathed, he felt severe pain in his chest.

It should be that the broken ribs have damaged the internal organs.

With injuries like this, they should have rested where they were, but the demons surrounding them from all directions forced them to move as soon as possible!

After saying this, Alvin's head tilted and he fell into coma.

Tucker frowned slightly, squatted down and pressed his chest with his hands. He quickly found out that Alvin had suffered serious internal injuries and had to be transferred for treatment as soon as possible.

"You must not die...boy!"

Tucker grabbed Alvin and carried him on his back, then tied the two together with cable ties. He pulled out the bolter with his free left hand and held the roaring chainsword in his right hand. He swept his eyes over the people in the 3rd Company and said, "Remember, if anyone falls behind, don't turn back to rescue him. We have only one goal... and that is to break out of the encirclement of the demon tide. I won't stop to wait for you, understand?!"

"clear!!!"

There are only more than forty people left in the 3rd Company, but the morale is still high.

Diz stuffed the last laser battery into the gun and grinned, "Don't worry, we will never drag down the captain!"

Tucker looked at the people in the 3rd Company. Although everyone was in a mess, their eyes were burning with fighting spirit. No one retreated, and no one refuted.

He had no doubt that if these forty-odd people could survive, they only needed to receive tactical training to become qualified warriors of the Emperor!
But, unfortunately... many of them will not be able to see the sun tomorrow.

"set off!"

Tucker roared and rushed out of the room first.

The 3rd Company, with more than people, was divided by Tucker into an assault group, a support group, and a rearguard group. The entire team advanced forward one after another. If you look from a high altitude, you can find that their formation looks like a sharp arrow!
Using Tucker as the sharp tip of the spear, they fiercely pierced into the demonic tide. The support groups on both sides ensured that the overall front would not be overwhelmed by the demons coming from the flanks, and the rearguard group at the end... their duty was simple, which was to block the enemies in the rear!

"For the Emperor!!!"

With high morale and Tucker leading the way like a killing god, wantonly slaughtering blasphemous demons, the speed of the group's advancement was significantly accelerated. Fortunately, the number of demons nearby was not too large.

Most of the demons pouring out of the Upper Nest were targeting the last surviving human stronghold in the Middle Nest, a counterattack position consisting of an armory and a food depot.

Most of the soldiers who retreated from the front line gathered in that stronghold, and with the help of the few remaining elite soldiers from the Ministry of Justice, they struggled to resist the demon army.

But... how long it can hold out is not certain.

According to Tucker's estimation, three days is the limit for them to hold out. In other words, unless support arrives within three days, they will all have to return to the Golden Throne!
"Hold on! Don't fall behind!"

Tucker chanted, his face growing increasingly anxious.

There are fewer and fewer people around, especially many people who have completely used up their ammunition and can only rely on tactical knives to fight the evil demons in the subspace!

Just when everyone was surrounded, suddenly a fiery red light directly cut through the smoke-filled sky, followed by a dull engine roar and a blue tail flame!
"what is that?!"

The 3rd Company, which had long been at the end of its rope, suddenly felt hopeful after seeing that ray of light.

Their intuition told them that it should be reinforcements!
"It's an assault boat! Reinforcements are coming!" Tucker is indeed a retired veteran of the Astra Militarum. His electronic prosthetic eye magnified the image and he saw clearly that it was an assault boat!

Countless demons left them behind and flew towards the assault boat!
"Brothers! Hold on!" Tucker's forehead was bulging with veins, and his neck was covered with burst blood vessels. He shouted with all his strength, "Our reinforcements have arrived. Soon the heretics will be driven...out?"

Before everyone could be happy for three seconds, they saw four balls of azure light, containing a heart-pounding aura of destruction, swallowing up the air currents and smoke along the way, like a punishment from the gods!
Boom! ! !
The dazzling light filled the sky, accompanied by a rumbling sound!

The 'assault boat' that carried everyone's hopes was destroyed by a single shot and exploded into fireworks in the sky.

On the contrary, the joy on the faces of the spectators did not even have time to fade away before they fell into a deeper ice cellar, and watched the feeling of seeing their hopes shattered with their own eyes... It was really uncomfortable!

"It's the planetary orbital defense cannon!"

Tucker turned his head suddenly, staring in the direction of the Upper Nest, gritting his teeth, and cursed viciously: "Damn Upper Nest nobles, even this thing has been occupied!"

He originally thought that even if the Shangchao nobles were afraid of death, they should at least fulfill their mission. Even if the planetary defense artillery was lost, it should be completely destroyed instead of leaving it to chaos!
What Tucker didn't know was that some of the nobles did want to do this, but unfortunately, before they could realize it, they were disintegrated from within, causing the planetary defense artillery to fall into the hands of Chaos.

"Isn't it just a planetary defense artillery?" Diz was the first to cheer up. The young man said courageously: "Once we have settled the captain, we will charge with you and destroy it, right?"

"You said it lightly..."

Tucker rubbed his brow, feeling a little painful.

As the name suggests, the planetary orbital defense artillery is mainly used to intercept attacks from space and low-Earth orbit. It is so powerful that it can destroy a space battleship with just a few shots!
In other words, if the planetary orbital defense artillery is not eliminated, it will be difficult for the Empire's support to directly airdrop onto the surface of the planet.

Unless... it's ultra-long-distance transmission.

Directly use the power of the subspace to teleport troops to the deepest part of the enemy's position, thereby destroying the planetary defense artillery and providing conditions for subsequent airborne troops!
