With their fearless style, when they exchanged casualties, even if humans had cover, their losses would be smaller, but they would not be able to bear it over time.

The number of human soldiers is limited, but the greenskins can be replenished. Because once the battle begins, there will always be scattered greenskins coming out from unknown corners to join the battle that makes their blood boil.

After half an hour of fighting, the casualties of human soldiers approached 30%. If they did not have two heavy weapons teams equipped with anti-aircraft machine guns, their situation would be even worse.

Just like on Earth, anti-aircraft machine guns have always been a powerful weapon against infantry. In the interstellar era, their caliber and rate of fire have been further improved, and the heavy laser beams fired from the barrels have a storm-like, armor-piercing rate of fire.

How can we fight against the inhuman monsters without increasing firepower?

The buzzing sound of the anti-aircraft machine gun operated by four people was like the electric Gatling gun of the A10 attack aircraft, and the red laser beam emitted was like a whirlwind and rainstorm of death.

Two anti-aircraft machine guns were located at the two corners of the passage, forming a cross fire that covered almost the entire passage. 60% of the boys' casualties came from these two anti-aircraft machine guns.

The orc boys were very angry after being suppressed for a long time. One boy wrapped a circle of stick bombs around his waist and made a shield and a set of armor with thick iron plates.

With an angry waaagh, the kid protected by armor rushed out. Two anti-aircraft machine guns instantly pointed their guns at him, and a red whirlwind of death engulfed the armored kid.

After holding out for more than ten seconds, he was suppressed by the firepower. He only rushed forward less than 50 meters before the Iron-Armored Boy's shield was melted and pierced.

His body exploded with the stick bomb, creating a small mushroom cloud and filling the sky with green-skinned spores.

Taking advantage of the confusion in vision caused by the explosion, other greenskins took the opportunity to start attacking, firing large amounts of ammunition at the human defense line, killing human manpower.

This kind of consumption has happened several times, and both sides have exchanged losses until the last man, but this time it is different...

After observing for a long time, Cheng Mingrui picked up the plasma gun in his hand and aimed it at the anti-aircraft machine gun in a tricky corner. The blue light gathered in the barrel, and the powerful energy made the gun creak.

It won’t really explode, will it? Cheng Mingrui, who was holding the trigger, was thinking wildly. A blue electric light shot out from the muzzle of the gun, and the smoke caused by the explosion was swept away by this powerful force.

In a flash, a ball of hot plasma exploded, covering the entire anti-aircraft machine gun position, melting everything inside into gas, leaving only a deep pit filled with high temperature and molten iron.

So powerful?! Even a main battle tank can't handle this! Cheng Mingrui, who had never tried a gun before, was shocked by the power of the plasma gun. The fact that it was so powerful was probably the result of a clever modification.

The human soldiers were indeed elite and reacted quickly. After being surprised that the anti-aircraft machine gun position was destroyed by a plasma gun, they immediately organized their personnel to launch a fire counterattack.

Three shoulder-fired missiles came flying towards them with long smoke trails, obviously intending to cover Cheng Mingrui with firepower on everything around him to ensure that the target was completely destroyed.

"Boss, get out of the way! Get out of the way!" The clever ghost face turned even greener with fright.

Cheng Mingrui was also stunned. He also wanted to dodge, but the missile was flying too fast. In order to save his life, Cheng Mingrui threw himself forward to minimize the damage of the explosion.

A green light suddenly appeared, like a whip tying the three missiles, and then with a strong swing, the missiles were thrown back to the human position. The huge explosion shattered the human defense line even more.

It was the psycho boy Kuka who used the waaagh energy to reverse the crisis just now.

Cheng Mingrui, who was lying on the ground, seized the opportunity to aim at another anti-aircraft machine gun position and fired another high-energy plasma. The plasma ball lived up to expectations and melted the second position into molten iron.

"Boys, charge towards that gap again! Waaagh." Hanging the slightly hot plasma gun on his waist, Cheng Mingrui took out the big Daka to cover the human defense line with firepower.

Although the guys looked silly, their combat skills were not low at all. They stood up and roared, picked up the big guns, cannons, recoilless guns, and stick bombs that were around them, and rushed towards the human defense line.

Flames and explosions enveloped the entire human defense line, and the defenders behind suffered countless casualties.

Dozens of armored boys holding shields rushed forward. When they rushed into the human defense line, it would be a brutal massacre. The lack of heavy firepower made the human counterattack much weaker. Ordinary individual laser guns could not break the armored boy's shield in a short time.

Several sudden explosions blew up many guys. They were mines and grenade launchers! The human defenders had not given up. The defenders here were indeed different from the previous human soldiers. They were still fighting back and had not been defeated.

The roar of the machinery and gears seemed particularly harsh amid the explosion, and the friction sound of the circular saw and power claws made people's teeth ache.

Accompanied by thick black fog and funny steps, the huge and oppressive figure of the killing tank rushed out of the fog, the two big daks on its chest were flaming, and the killing weapons on its arms were covered with cold light.

"waaagh!" The fighting spirit of the farts in the cans was also ignited.

Chapter 7 Facing Steel

The humans reacted quickly as well. Two anti-tank teams fired anti-armor missiles at the killing cans. This time, without the help of Kuka, the missiles hit the killing cans hard.

The two powerful explosions did not destroy the killing can. The thick steel plates installed on the can by Gear Boy could make the can withstand considerable damage.

The killing jar was unlucky this time. One of its mechanical legs was blown off, and its speed dropped a lot, but it did not fall down. Using its mechanical arm as its other leg, the killing jar continued to charge forward, and the big tongue of fire protruding from its chest became even hotter.

Without interference, the speed of the Iron-clad Boys increased significantly, the distance between the battlefields was quickly crossed, and two Iron-clad Boys rushed into the human defense line.

They first took out stick bombs, lit them all, and threw them behind the bunker, then pulled out the big hacks from their waists and started killing people.

When a bloody iron-clad boy picked up his spoils with a big chop, all the orcs were inspired. They couldn't let the fun be taken away by everyone. Including Cheng Mingrui, all the orcs started to fight.

Ordinary orcs are already scary enough, and waaagh's orcs are even more deadly. With the blessing of waaagh, the fart spirit dares to fight the kid. With the blessing of waaagh, the kid dares to challenge the big guy. With the blessing of waaagh, the big guy dares to talk back to the skill tyrant and the war boss!

After Cheng Mingrui got possessed by waaagh, he was no longer a human being, but a ferocious beast and a killing machine.

With a plasma gun in one hand and a big dakai in the other, Cheng Mingrui charged forward and shot, destroying all the enemies he could see. His vision was stained red with blood.

The guys under his command also went crazy. The human defense line was like being hit by a sledgehammer and shattered. These elite soldiers were scattered, divided and surrounded, and then died under the various horrible killing weapons of the orcs.

The only thing worthy of admiration is that they shouted for the Emperor and fought to the last man without retreating.

After the fight, the orcs were very happy. They didn't care about their own casualties. It was a pity that there were too few of them, and they all died before they could fight.

The body fragments of orcs and humans covered the entire defense line. There was no living person and few intact corpses.

The equipment on the killing cans and the Iron Boys are too brutal. Just a little touch on a human body will cause them to be shattered into pieces. To fight head-on against violent aliens like the Greenskins, it will take Astartes Space Marines.

The green-skinned guys and the fart elves were not very happy because they didn't get to take part in the fun. They wandered back and forth on the ruins of the battlefield, looking for any living shrimps to kill.

Some cunning guys collect scraps and teeth, and fight for some treasures that are either weapons or teeth. Greed is also one of the character traits of the greenskins.

Without any survivors, Cheng Mingrui couldn't figure out what these elite human soldiers were guarding here. Forget it, waaagh, it's one way, just keep moving forward.

He spent some time to organize his men in order, patted the guys around him to subdue them, and asked the technical guy to upgrade everyone's weapons and equipment. Cheng Mingrui and his men continued to move forward along the passage.

There was a sudden tremor, like an earthquake, and the greenskins were shaken to pieces.

"What happened?" asked Cheng Mingrui, who almost fell down.

The clever ghost on his body grabbed Cheng Mingrui's muscles in time to prevent him from falling. The clever ghost hanging in the air shouted: "In front, Boss, in front, the vibration is coming from the front."

After the vibration subsided, Cheng Mingrui immediately led the greenskins forward along the passage, and soon the view became clear.

This is a huge space, with countless human servants working hard under huge gears and chains. They use heavy and huge mechanical tools to cram shells as big as a building into giant gun barrels.

The vibration is caused by the excitation of the gun barrel.

After the humans discovered the greenskins appearing in the passage, those well-equipped guards surrounded them. In such a vast space, the humans' heavy armored weapons demonstrated extremely terrifying lethality.

Heavy plasma turrets, Leman Russ tanks, Sentinel mechas, Chimera troop carriers, with the help of machinery and artillery, ordinary humans can also fight against the terrifying aliens.

The greenskins who rushed out with Cheng Mingrui were instantly hit by plasma, artillery, and lasers fired from the armor, suffering heavy casualties. The killing tanks that wanted to use their bodies to resist human firepower were no match for the main guns of the Nemanrus tanks and were blown into pieces after being hit several times.

The firepower was too strong to be stopped even by killing cans, let alone the ordinary orcs with flesh and blood. The fearless green-skinned orcs launched a charge, but it was meaningless as they were beaten into smoking pieces one after another.

"Retreat! Everyone retreat!" This was not firepower that could be countered. Flesh and blood could not stop steel. Cheng Mingrui immediately ordered his men to retreat.

Now he was absolutely sure that he had gone in the wrong direction. Relying on the knowledge he had before the time travel, Cheng Mingrui could judge that he and his men had entered the weapon module of the battleship. This space was the loading area for the macro cannon, the standard weapon of the imperial battleship.

In the 40k era, the human empire is in turmoil, because of the Iron Man Rebellion (artificial intelligence rebellion) and technological faults in history, the entire human empire is in decline. But even so, the empire is still struggling and standing firm.

Even without the assistance of AI, even if knowledge is lost, and only using the most common machinery, bearings, gears, and chains, humans' steel monsters are still powerful even if they look primitive, and have a kind of rough and violent aesthetics.

A head-on attack would definitely not work, so Cheng Mingrui planned to withdraw the guys before making any plans.

Seeing the greenskins being beaten and retreating back into the passage, the human defenders did not pursue them, but just defended themselves tightly.

The passage was too narrow, and the humans suffered heavy losses in several battles in the passage. Moreover, their heavy equipment could not be deployed inside, and they were easily surrounded and destroyed by the orcs.

As long as they could defend the macro cannon, the human defenders' mission would be accomplished. Under the reprimand of the political commissar, the human soldiers who were excited about the victory gave up the idea of ​​pursuit.

Seeing that his plan to lure the enemy deep into his territory had failed, Cheng Mingrui touched his smooth chin and began to think.

There is a saying that when humans think, God laughs, and when the greenskins think, Brother Mao laughs.

If he were still a human, Cheng Mingrui felt that he would definitely not be so smart (cunning). Now, after just a little thought, he came up with an idea.

If you can't defeat the enemy head-on, you can launch a sneak attack. As long as you don't lose your mindset, there are always more solutions than problems.

Chapter 8 Quarrel

The loading bay of the Hong Cannon was too huge, and there were many passages leading to it. The clever ghost followed Cheng Mingrui's order and took a large number of jumping soldiers with a keen sense of smell to find other passages. This was the first step in the sneak attack.

Then, he called all the mechanical boys over and asked them to build anti-armor weapons. Then he reinforced the only killing can, thinking only of ways to improve its defense, requiring it to be bigger, thicker, and more resistant to beatings, just to attract the attention of humans.

Among the green-skinned orcs, some like to chop people with hacking weapons, some like to use guns to sweep the enemies into sieves, and some like to create big explosions and indulge in all the destruction caused by the booming sparks.

Five or six blasting boys were found and asked to work with Cheng Mingrui as secret aces and obey his direct orders.

Cheng Mingrui, who was obsessed with fighting, may have forgotten that he had put his intelligence in the wrong place. The order given to him by the smart boss was to occupy the power cabin, but he had already devoted himself to killing the shrimp in front of him.

The Glorious Knight is just an ordinary Imperial Moon-class cruiser. Her mission is to monitor the chaos in the Orc star field, pay close attention to the civil war among the Orcs, and pass the intelligence to the Empire.

Once the orcs are about to end the civil war and compete for a powerful war leader, the Empire will send fleets to cause chaos and prolong the orcs' civil war.

This is a shrewd and brilliant strategy that allows the Empire to achieve the greatest results with the least losses, and in theory can curb the orcs, a long-standing threat to the human empire.

The surveillance went smoothly unless something unexpected happened.

When the Glorious Knight sent a message to its superiors that the orcs were still in a fierce civil war and did not pose a threat to the empire for the time being, three orc pirate warships ambushed the Glorious Knight.

With the Emperor's blessing, the Glorious Knight escaped from the ambush under the captain's excellent command, temporarily avoiding the risk of being destroyed or captured.

Leaving the ambush circle does not mean safety. The hateful greenskins fired many boarding torpedoes that hit the Glorious Knight. A large number of greenskin orcs wreaked havoc on the ship, seriously affecting the battleship's combat effectiveness and speed.

"Bearing 42.38.57, there is an unidentified ship approaching. Based on experience, it is suspected to be orc pirates! They are catching up!" reported the radar soldier on the bridge.

"Damn it, why are these abominable aliens so difficult to deal with?" Captain Pex of the Glorious Knight cursed, and asked his adjutant at the same time, "Have you destroyed those green-skinned beasts running around on my ship?"

"I'm sorry, sir, not yet. Our troops are fighting hard against those damn beasts, but several attacks have failed. The physical fitness of ordinary soldiers can't compete with the green-skinned beasts." The adjutant explained.

"We have no apes, no Catachans, and no Emperor's Angels Astartes. The soldiers did their best."

"Excuses! You are not working hard enough, you are not loyal enough, and you don't understand the meaning of sacrifice. Only sacrifice can bring victory!" Pex was furious. His roar resounded throughout the bridge, and his saliva was about to spray on the adjutant's face.

After being insulted, the adjutant's face turned as pale as pig liver. He had a stern face and was holding back his anger. He could not tolerate the captain's insult to the soldiers under his command who had died in the battle.

As the atmosphere of confrontation between the two men gradually intensified, a crisp sound of leather shoes stepping on the steel deck broke the momentum that had just accumulated.

A political commissar wearing a wide-brimmed military cap, a straight military uniform, a bolter on one side and a chainsword on the other, glanced between the adjutant and the captain with his murderous eyes.

Political commissars have always been the backbone of the human empire and the guarantee of order and morale. As long as the political commissars are still in an empire's army, such an army will still have combat effectiveness even if it suffers devastating casualties.

This is achieved through the indomitable spirit and strong willpower of each political commissar, as well as their unparalleled loyalty to the Emperor.

The political commissar on the bridge is there to supervise the commanders at all levels. As long as he believes that any commander has acted disloyal, such as mutiny, fear of battle, or fleeing the battlefield, he may use his bolter and chainsword to execute the commander on the spot.

Therefore, the political commissar is a person that everyone fears.

Of course, in addition to shooting their own people, there were also some political commissars who led the charge bravely, fighting alien creatures with their mortal flesh and blood, and their achievements were comparable to those of the powerful Astartes Space Marines.

People not only fear the political commissars, they also admire them.

"Captain Pex, I watched the battle video. Those soldiers did their best. They practiced their loyalty to the Emperor with their own sacrifice. You shouldn't be so harsh on them. There are some strong special bodies among those aliens. It's the best news that the Astra Militarum can contain their offensive."

"They fulfilled their duties, defended the ship, and protected our lives. Now it's time for you to fulfill your duty, Captain Pex. The orc warship is entering the engagement radius." Political Commissar Japard placed one hand on the hilt of the chainsword and said in a calm tone.

Since the bridge political commissar had spoken, Pex naturally did not dare to argue with him and had to shift his attention to command.

The orc warships were indeed approaching quickly, much faster than Pex had predicted, and the flames from the engines behind the ugly orc warships were twice as long as before.

The experienced Pex knew that this was a device unique to the Orc warships. It was said that it was a red button that could increase the speed of the warship several times with just one press.

Mere bravery cannot determine the outcome of a war. The Moon-class cruiser is an excellent classic ship type of the human empire. Even if it is damaged, Pex is confident that he can command the Glorious Knight to defeat the enemy.

The battleship made a flexible turn under Pex's command, turning the rows of macro cannons on the side towards the orc warship.

As soon as the orc warship came into range, the macro cannon began to roar like thunder, firing shells with a power equivalent to that of a nuclear bomb at the enemy.

Due to the long distance, the orcs' artillery range was insufficient, so they fired two rounds of space torpedoes at the Glorious Knight, and the first round of confrontation between the two warships began.

As the fierce battle unfolded in outer space, it also unfolded inside the Glorious Knight.

After an hour of preparation, Cheng Mingrui's tactics began to be implemented. The clever jumpers brought good news that there was indeed more than one passage leading to the loading area. The bad news was that each passage was guarded by human soldiers, and it was not easy to break through.

Cheng Mingrui took a look at the secret weapons that the gear boys were banging on, then wrote and drew on the map on the ground. After a brief thought, he patted his bald head, and the main attack direction was finalized.

Chapter 9 Making a feint to the east and attacking in the west

In the loading bay, a large number of Fart Spirits and Hoppy poured out from several passageways at the same time. The Fart Spirits were equipped with simple pistols and stick bombs, while the red Squig Hoppy was covered in ignited explosives.

The Astra Militarum were thrown into confusion by the sudden attack at multiple points, but as they were well-trained, they quickly reacted and covered all the openings with saturation firepower.

Although there were many passages that needed to be defended, which resulted in dispersed firepower and some casualties, the defense line against the Fart Spirits and the Jumping Star Army was as solid as a rock.

The attack didn't last long. Soon the fart spirit collapsed due to the casualties and fled back to the depths of the passage with Tiaotiao.
