This Terra is a little weird.

After intense negotiations, the command concluded that Iberia should be abandoned completely, and Sargon and Lateran should be retreated, while Rembito would continue to maintain the existing defense plan.

For a time, the Iberian government organizations and people expressed their opposition. They were unwilling to leave their country and would rather die in battle than escape.

Helag flew to Iberia and kept lobbying politicians and the public. This was not an escape, but a strategic retreat. Iberia was now indefensible, and the remaining dozen or so mobile cities were crowded with people, making them not suitable for combat at all. The mobile warships had no position cover and would soon be separated by the schools of terrifying fish and destroyed one by one.

Even though the interests involved were made clear, the Iberians still stubbornly decided to live and die with the country. For the glory of the golden age, the Iberians could avoid disasters and natural calamities, but they would never turn their backs to the enemy, never flee from a battle with the enemy, and never hand over the land under their feet to the terrifying fish.

A few hours later, the Terran Guard arrived in Iberia in full force. Rather than the thousand people generally known, there were actually two thousand of them, including warriors, dreadnoughts, and war machines.

The arrival of these giants calmed everyone down, because it took them only a dozen minutes to quell the riots in various mobile cities. They used the bolters and chainswords in their hands, as well as the blood of the ringleaders, to stabilize public order.

The Contemptor Fearless smashed the door and concrete together, and Doji Zhaxi and a group of Terran Shield Guards from the former Imperial Fist walked into the Iberian Congress.

No one knew what the Space Marines and politicians said, but after they left, the Iberian government called on people to begin temporarily migrating to Sargon and Lateran.

The mobile city began to move. The Iberians were quite dissatisfied and some soldiers wanted to stay, but they were all stopped by the Space Marines.

Until the areas of Iberia that were flooded by the sea, numerous sea heirs appeared.

They were much faster than the mobile cities, and the Terra guards stepped forward to block them, but they alone could not protect the entire retreat line, so the entire Astra Militarum was dispatched, including Iberian soldiers and the Inquisition.

The Terran Guard was divided into five parts, forming a mixed force with three Astra Militarum regiments and the Iberian garrison.

Doji Zhaxi personally led a company and all the shield guards, boarded the mobile warship, and stationed in the middle of the retreat line, which was also the place where the number of terrifying fish was the largest.

Even so, this makeshift defense line still had many loopholes, including a lack of manpower, ammunition and weapons. Soldiers in some units could only hand over their ammunition to their most accurate comrades, and fight with bayonets and cold weapons themselves.

Of course they are very familiar with this.

Fortunately, the Ist Astra Militarum arrived, two days ahead of schedule and only a few hours behind the Space Marines.

After a quick allocation, the First Corps was deployed in important defense areas, and the previous gaps were filled by the Fifth Corps. The elite Kashejin troops and all members of the Sun Guard of Cadia will be stationed in the center together with the First Company of the Terra Guard, and the Linguang Family will be scattered along the front line.

Operation Engine was the name given to the evacuation.

The first shot of this battle was fired by a castle lord-level knight. Its capture system successfully detected the biological signal of the terrifying fish. The volcanic ray cannon mounted on its left arm fired towards the distant ocean. A huge amount of water vapor rose into the air, and large groups of terrifying fish and Originium crystals were also destroyed.

Doji Zhaxi looked at the evaporating enemy troops in the distance, and couldn't help but recall the past glory. At that time, he was also following the original body to fight the aliens. The enemy's special weapons evaporated his lower body, and he had to be stuffed into the cold womb of the fearless mecha to continue his life. In Doji Zhaxi's view, this way of living without a body and lingering on cannot be considered human. His consciousness is constantly enslaved by strings of data.

Gradually losing all of one's own heart and soul and becoming a fearless warrior is painful. It is painful when one is awake, painful when one is asleep, and still painful when one is awakened.

But Doji Zhaxi believes that as long as it is for humanity, no matter what his form is, he will devote his last bit of strength, even if this is not an empire and humans are not humans in the traditional sense.

Dral stood beside him. "Reminiscing about the past, ancestors?"

"Dral, I still don't understand your identity. In my impression, there is only one position of think tank in each legion."

"Captain, I have said many times that this identity is to make the battle brothers always remember their oaths, always fight for the Emperor, and always charge forward."

"Oh, I don't know, I forgot again, my brain is getting more and more burdened."

"Perhaps you should stop suppressing the machine spirit and try to write the data into the terminal."

"Maybe. They are coming. Let's prepare for battle."

The school of terrifying fish rushed towards the mobile battleship like a flood. The Space Marines and Astra Militarum had already built simple positions on both sides of the mobile battleship and all the ammunition had been moved here.

Dral shouted: "Brothers! Guards! Today is the day of slaughter! We will let the blood of the aliens dye the crust of the earth red! We will smash the bones of the enemy and tear their flesh apart! For the sake of humanity! Death is not a pity!"

The earth-shaking cannon began to fire, and the remaining ammunition was fired by the gunners. No matter whether they were made on Mars or on the ice field, they were all shot out and fell into the wriggling "blue ocean", exploding into large pieces of mud and blood.

Armored units and various mechas launched firepower one after another, repeating the usual style of the Astra Militarum troops, but this time they had no air support, because all aircraft had to cover the retreat of the mobile city. A large number of Drifters bypassed the defense line formed by mobile warships and flew after the mobile city.

The anti-aircraft firepower on the mobile battleships was not enough to shoot down all the Drifters, but in order to reduce the pressure on the mobile city, they had to fire all their ammunition.

The armored forces stopped firing after firing four or five rounds, as they had little ammunition. The remaining ammunition depot and the baggage brought by the First Corps were just enough to fill every vehicle crew, leaving no extra ammunition.

After the high-explosive and incendiary bombs were used up, the remaining ammunition was left for the behemoths.

The Earthshakers and Medusa Siege Cannons had also run out of ammunition, and the artillerymen took up their weapons and joined the front line, but they were not automatic guns, but bows or crossbows, which they had in large reserves.

The Space Marines looked at the Astra Militarum in front of them. It was a complete mess and not as majestic as the Imperial Guard in their impression. But they did not ask for much. It was enough for these mortals to withstand the pressure.

The huge Contemptor Dreadnought raised its left arm and swung down with its huge power sword: "Shoot!"

Bullets, explosive bolts and lasers shot into the school of leviathans, tearing apart the fastest sprinters. The leviathans' attack soon arrived. Spitters and splashers fired all kinds of acid at the Astra Militarum like snipers and mortars. The leviathans continued to run at high speed, consuming human ammunition.

Mortar teams fired shells at the Deep Sea Founders, killing them.

Compared with those spitters and splashers, these sea creatures that release Abyss Marks are more troublesome. Those Abyss Marks will absorb all kinds of substances and spread madly, and in fact, they are indeed spreading.

The Space Marines and Astra Militarum fought hard to burn these abysses. In the absence of fuel tanks, they used industrial alcohol or any flammable oil to make Molotov cocktails and threw them out.

All the Space Marines of the First Company were equipped with Terminator power armour. They were all veterans of the Legion, and were equipped with the same type of Iron Cavalry Terminators or extensions of this type.

The middle of the defense line is where the firepower is the fiercest. Kashejin and Stormtroopers of the First Legion and the Sun Guard of Cadia are all here. The Hell Guns and various heavy weapons make it impossible for the Terror Fish to approach the mobile warships.

The situation in other places was much worse. The place where the Third Corps was stationed was the first to engage in hand-to-hand combat. They had discarded a lot of equipment, and in order to evacuate later, they did not bring many tanks, and there was no super heavy tank on the tanks.

The Third Legion was short of equipment, and many people were using bows and crossbows and spells. Seeing this, the Space Marines simply stopped using the few explosive arrows they had, and left them for the giant fish monsters and humanoid sea heirs.

So the Third Legion followed the Space Marines and launched a counterattack against the Terrorfish.

The situation on the battlefield was very clear. The Space Marines were like a giant sharp knife, piercing and cutting the schools of terrifying fish, while the Third Legion moved its line forward, heavily armed and raising shields to form a shield wall to protect the flanks of the mobile battleships.

The empty-air machine guns on the bridge continued to roar, and the hot shell casings fell to the wet soil with the vibration, emitting wisps of white steam.

The Originium cannons and automatic cannons on the battleships eventually ran out of ammunition.

At Doji Zhaxi's order, the central defense line began a counterattack. When the Space Marines saw the appearance of the humanoid Hai Si, they had to kill them before they cast their spells, otherwise the combat effectiveness of the Star Army soldiers would decline due to continuous mental erosion.

During the fierce battle in Iberia, the battle in Rem Bito also began. Just like Iberia, the Astra Militarum abandoned the central third of Rem Bito, spent half a day relocating all civilians and equipment, and then set up a defense line to deal with the oncoming Hai Si.

Rembile has no support from Space Marines, nor the firepower from Knight Mechs.

The Second Corps, the Combined Corps and the local defenders are the only assets of RemBitco. Even the super-heavy tanks cannot attack at will. They don’t have many shells now. Once they run out of them, they can only rely on their huge bodies to act as a crushing machine.

The United Corps was also in chaos at this time. Luo Chen left with more than half of the Cadia employees. The corps temporarily replaced its general with Frost Star, with Hedley, Tallulah and the Doctor as adjutants. Luo Chen only left one sentence: These 1,500 people will be the key to our victory, even if I don't have to send out Space Marines to kill Skadi.

This confusing statement was puzzling. Frost Star and the others did not ask any more questions. The Doctor thought about it and did not ask any more questions. Although Hedley had some doubts, the current situation still required defending Rembilt to be more important.

It is reported that the Astra Militarum Headquarters can finally mobilize the corps guarding Ursus. More than ten corps are rushing to Iberia and Rembilt. They need to hold on for about ten days.

Tallulah was assigned to the front-line command. The Second Corps, the United Corps and the Rembilt Army had to hold a long line of defense. They needed to deploy their troops as well as possible to prevent the attack of the terrifying fish.

Before Tallulah left, Froststar handed over the command of the Black Shield Guard to her.

This unit was transferred by the Patriot not long ago. Rembito was now isolated and helpless, so he could only dispatch the troops that had followed him for a long time. He knew that Frost Star would be the commander. This girl had attended military school in the Republic of Ursus and had actual combat experience. She had once belonged to the Second Corps.

RemBitto's defensive arrangement was simple. It was responsible for three mobile warships, none of which had been modified. They had no automatic cannons or anti-aircraft machine guns, and the earth-shaking cannons had to be transported and set up.

Fortunately, the Second Corps did not lose its self-propelled artillery and they had plenty of ammunition. This alone made their situation much better than that of Iberia.

Tallulah keenly realized that since Haisi had not yet crossed the dividing line between the southern and central parts of Rembit, they could use that dividing line because the overall terrain there was relatively narrow and it would be easier for them to defend.

But first, they must launch a charge tactic to kill all the terrifying fish that cross the canyon.

The task was undertaken by the Stormtroopers of the Second Corps and the Sarkaz of the Combined Corps. W, Hedley and Ines were in charge of the attack.

The implementation of the engine plan has actually been completed in Rem Billiton, civilians and production facilities have basically been evacuated, and the remaining military operations are essentially to restrict Haisi's possible future attacks in Rem Billiton.

If Rembit falls into danger, Lateran will face attacks from both sides. No one knows what the Sakota people will do. They only provide limited material support to the Astra Militarum, and even few people join the Astra Militarum. They don't speak at the Earth Conference, and they always abstain from voting, still appearing neutral.

However, after Iberia fell at this time, Lateran was forced to take action.

They accepted the Engine Plan and were willing to take the Iberians to the southern region for temporary refuge for only one year. That was to say, you had to fight back to Iberia within one year, and after one year you had to leave no matter what.

Luo Chen and the employees returned to the company. He came to the office where Alina was processing documents.

"Ah Chen, why did you come back? You didn't even call me."

"Alina, call the remaining employees of the company. I need to intensify their training. Whether the war will be won or not depends on these people."

"Ah? What are you talking about? How many people did you bring?"

"More than 1,500."

"Fifteen thousand. If you add up the employees in the company who can fight, there are only three thousand of them. No matter how much training they do, they can't influence the war, right? Besides, I don't know where Skadi has gone. I heard that the Haisi on the front line seem to have become a whole. Aren't you here to deal with the disappearance of Skadi?"

"It doesn't matter anymore, Skadi or Ishamara, it doesn't matter anymore. I want to activate the final plan, the absolute main force on the battlefield, the God's Machine."

"what is that?"

"You can imagine that a castle lord-level knight is enlarged ten times. This is a Titan."

"...If there really is such a thing, then fine, you can train the big guy without worry, and I will take care of all the logistics for you."

Luo Chen hugged Alina: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It must be because of everyone's hard work."

Chapter 215 The best defense is offense

The metal storms fired from the assault cannons tore apart the attacking hordes of Sea Heirs. The Space Marines rushed into the swarms of creatures, and their chainswords and power weapons continued to gnaw at the alien flesh.

If more terrifying fish had not arrived, their attack would have been almost broken up.

Doji Zhaxi sent out the Dreadnoughts. These ancient warriors used Gatling assault cannons or plasma destroyers, equipped with flamethrowers and power gloves, to kill a lot of terrifying fish. The limbs and attacks of the terrifying fish were ineffective. Explosive bullets were fired from both sides of the sarcophagus of the Dreadnoughts, and soon cleared a large area.

The Space Marines immediately entered the clearing and used bolters and flamethrowers to help the Dreadnoughts clear the xenos.

"We defended it." The Patriot stood on the mobile battleship, overlooking the battlefield on the ground. The strength of the Space Marines was beyond imagination. Five minutes after Doji Zhaxi changed his strategy, he was in a posture of counterattack.

The Chapter Commander of the Terra Guard wants to counterattack. Since the aliens can't do anything to us, why should we give up the counterattack?

Even if they lack ammunition and supplies, the Space Marines will never retreat into defense. Offense is their mission and responsibility, and offense is defense.

"Please ask the Astra Militarum to hold this line of defense. I will lead the chapter to launch a counterattack against the enemy. The enemy will pass through the gaps in our deployment, but I believe there will not be too many left. I will leave those to you."

"But......"

Doji Zhaxi and the shield guards descended to the ground on the elevator.

The voice of the Chapter Master came from the Space Marines' internal communications: "My brothers! An hour has passed, and the enemy has proven their incompetence! We don't have to be cautious anymore, let these aliens feel the wrath of humanity!"

Reverend Dral stood on the stone, the power hammer in his hand raised to the decomposition position: "Kill the aliens! Burn the heretics! For the Emperor! Charge!"

The Space Marines were no longer restrained, nor did they care about coordination with the Astra Militarum. The Dreadnoughts and Predator tanks crushed into the school of terrifying fish, leaving wide streaks of blood on the ground.

As it turned out, the Terrorfish, whose height and width were not even as tall as the Space Marine's calf, collapsed instantly when faced with the charging Superman warrior.

Doji Zhaxi and the shield guard pointed directly at the enemy's commander. He observed for a long time and found that the witch surrounded by thousands of troops was the leader of this alien attack.

When the Contemptor Fearlessly ran, the ground was shaking. The terrifying fish that blocked his way were either trampled to death or knocked away, or trampled into a pool of meat by the shield guards behind Doji Zhaxi.

The Patriot was so shocked that he couldn't speak when he saw the battlefield situation turned around in just a dozen seconds. There was no expression on Wendigo's face, but from the tone of Patriot's speech, Kashaw could still hear his shock.

"I can't believe it. I couldn't see any details of their attack. It was too fast. Even the terrestrial fish with poor dynamic vision couldn't see it."

"Luo Chen told me that these tall giants are different from you and me. They are superhumans, and we are mortals. That's all. Look, they are almost driving the terrifying fish away now."

The Patriot looked at those who had escaped the Space Marines' offensive line. Their numbers were not that large, and there was no humanoid Hai Si in command.

"Like they say, if we hold this place, the battle will be won."

The Patriot took out his spear and shield, and Kashaw adjusted his laser pistol: "But we don't have the energy to defend this place now. RemBit is still in danger, and the Terran guards still need to mobilize many people."

"When Hai Si attacks again, the army we can command will no longer be just four or five legions. By then, even without Space Marines, we can retake Iberia and execute the orders of the headquarters."

"You have the final say, sir."

The Castle Lord-class Knights relied on their ultra-long-range firepower strike capability to evaporate one terrifying fish after another in front of the Space Marines. Death strike missiles were launched, blowing those behemoths that were tens of meters tall into pieces. Huge amounts of blood spilled, dyeing the water red and the Space Marines' paintwork red.

Doji Zhaxi's rapid approach made the humanoid Haisi who commanded the terrifying fish extremely panicked. It had just tried many spells without any effect, so it fled decisively, leaving behind a large number of terrifying fish as shields.

But this action had been discovered long ago. The moment it raised its legs, its legs were broken by the heavy bolts mounted under the Contemptor's Dreadnought Power Gloves. It fell to the ground and bled rapidly. The Terrorfish moved its remaining body and fled towards the water.

The speed of the terrifying fish was not as fast as that of the Space Marine. The huge power sword in Doji Zhaxi's hand slashed out, cutting the humanoid Haisi and the terrifying fish into two halves.

The Primaris Space Marines were delighted to see their Chapter Master kill the enemy commander, but the Sea Si did not collapse as they expected, because the Sea Si were not Tyranids, which was their advantage.

The Primaris warriors adapted quickly. Since killing the commander would not cause the aliens to panic, they decided to kill them all.

Compared to their predecessors, the Primaris are taller, bigger and stronger, and they are also the fastest among them.

Suddenly, the Space Marines saw a familiar person, who was their target of surveillance. She was now standing among the terrifying fish, with cold eyes, revealing no emotions that a human should have.
