"We've taken the bait. Everyone move to the facility."
The integration movement immediately moved along the engineering pipelines opened by the engineers to the engineering pipelines of the mobile city.
Most of the people took shelter in the passages before the shells from the artillery units fell.
Luo Chen held up the city defense map and asked, "Have they all arrived at their designated locations? What's the news about the second echelon?"
“They are already in place.”
"Notify the third echelon and begin the attack."
Chapter 2: Attack ()
The Patriot is the only pure-blooded Wendigo left in the world, and his combat ability cannot be assessed. Now standing in front of this "monster" are the Ursus soldiers who are ready for battle.
However, the Wendigo did not rush around. He was not the stupid beast as rumored, but a wise master of war.
He led the shield guards into the government district, and then the entire team dispersed. The defending forces were immediately attacked from all sides. Just as they were about to organize a counterattack team to counter the shield guards, the attack suddenly stopped. By the time the frontline officers realized it, it was too late, and a large number of spells covered the defensive positions.
The defensive forces on the streets were immediately swept away by the explosion. A few people who were proficient in Originium arts survived, but they were immediately killed by the shield guards led by the Patriot again.
The warlock troops accurately struck the heavy weapons on the defense line, and the defenders had no idea how to deal with the enemy that was nearly twice as tall as themselves.
"Sir! A troop led by a Wendigo is advancing towards the core city. They have already reached the outskirts of the city."
"Wendigo?! Where did the guerrillas find this?! Is it the one with the 'Shield'?"
"He should be. There is no other Wendigo in the tundra except him."
The commander was silent for a moment: "Tell all troops to stop advancing towards the core city immediately, and notify the Fifth Battalion to withdraw from the core city immediately."
"Are you going to give up this place?"
"They want the Core City, and we can't stop them. Unless you want to die here, don't go head-to-head with a Wendigo, let alone a pure-blooded one."
"I don't understand, why would he betray the Empire?"
"......Hurry up, let's go and take back the industrial zone. They will be concerned about their own casualties, and we can protect everyone."
Just as the Fifth Battalion was evacuating outside the core city, the Integration Movement rushed out of the engineering facilities and collided head-on with the Ursus army. The Fifth Battalion was stunned by this bottom-up attack and had to retreat back to the core city and deploy artillery units to stop the advancement of the Integration Movement.
Luo Chen had already ambushed his troops around the core city. The second echelon also arrived at the designated location according to the plan, and the third echelon was the final blow.
Everyone thought that the Integration Movement would not dare to fight the regular army for the core city, but they did not expect that they really had the courage to do so.
"Damn it!" At this time, the defenders had already recaptured the industrial zone, but the news that the Fifth Battalion was besieged once again poured cold water on them.
"We have to rescue them. You know, the Fifth Brigade includes our teaching team, which are all children of nobles. If they all die, you know what the consequences will be."
"......, notify all troops to follow me to support the Fifth Battalion. Even the patrol squads must come!"
However, they were blocked on the outer ring. Tallulah, Patriot and Froststar led the elite troops to block the Ursus troops. The artillery units kept firing at them, but it had almost no effect. Instead, they exposed their positions and were eliminated by Froststar and the Snow Monster Squad.
The patriots held heavy spears, and every strike brought unacceptable damage. In the other direction, Tallulah's horrific flames set the entire block on fire. The stormtroopers stood behind their leader, stunned with weapons in their hands, at a loss as to what to do.
These people once again demonstrated what personal strength is. On Terra, sometimes one person can really control the outcome of a battle. Luo Chen accepted this very early on. After all, in the Empire, in the eyes of his soldiers, Luo Chen is not a human being either.
Now, Luo Chen led three echelons of troops to besiege the core area. The Fifth Battalion contracted the defense circle again and again. Every time heavy weapons were set up, Luo Chen would use automatic guns to kill the operators, so that no one was willing to touch those heavy weapons.
The officers of the Fifth Battalion decided to go for broke. They wanted to blow up the core area and make the enemy die with them at all costs.
But Luo Chen was well prepared. A patrol team disguised as defeated dogs suddenly attacked the Fifth Battalion in the defense circle. The commandos had changed their skins in the first wave of attack and retreated into the core city as the defeated troops disguised as patrol teams. There were too many defeated troops and the Fifth Battalion had no time to check and had to deal with the attack launched by the Integration Movement.
Now, with this incident, both the noble army and the regular army began to suspect the patrol team, while the patrol team insisted that there were traitors in the noble army. The three forces started to make a ridiculous fuss, making the already chaotic core city even more chaotic.
Taking advantage of this time, Luo Chen assembled a strong shock force consisting of heavy armor, vanguards and warlocks, and charged towards the chaotic area at the beginning. The regular army and pickets who were in the melee along the way were ruthlessly killed. The commandos ignored the risk of being surrounded and used all their strength to move towards the power core.
Three echelons followed closely behind them, clearing out the surrounding enemy forces and occupying advantageous positions.
The commander of the garrison came up to the patriots with his guard.
"Sir Patriot, why would a war hero like you betray the Empire?"
"You can't control it!"
"For His Majesty the Emperor!"
When Froststar returned, only a few mutilated corpses were left around the Patriots.
"father."
"Let's go, let's go support the core city."
The battlefield outside the power core has fallen into a tense state. Stationed here are the garrison's training team. All of them are powerful officers and have a large number of firearms and artillery units. The commandos of the Integration Movement are pinned down in their own positions.
"Captain One, get your team ready!"
"Yes!"
Luo Chen stood up and shot. The bullet accurately hit the warlock who was casting a spell. The officers dodged one after another. They could not defend against the bullets coming from the opposite side.
"on!"
Captain One rushed out like Custer. He was so fast that only his afterimage could be seen. The crossbow in his hand fired arrows continuously, and the gunners who were hit fell to the ground one after another. Only then did Luo Chen realize that his powerful Captain Two could also use Originium skills to enhance his physical abilities.
"Damn it, knowing some Originium skills is really cheating, team two, get ready! Go!"
Amid the sound of automatic gunfire, Team One and Team Two moved forward to within attack distance, and the warlock began casting spells to cover them.
Bombs were thrown into the teaching team's position. The officers raised their shields to block them, but were still knocked aside by the violent explosion.
When they covered their ears and climbed up, they saw a man in dark green armor rushing into the power core and then being killed by the stormtroopers.
When the Fifth Battalion was fighting against the Patriots and the troops led by Tallulah, a rumbling sound came from the core city beneath their feet. After a tremor, the core city broke away from the Ice Fortress, and the reinforcements of the defenders were immediately cut off.
Later, during the siege, the remnants of the Fifth Battalion surrendered to the Integration Movement. The noble children of the teaching team did not want to surrender to them, so they either fought to the end or committed suicide.
When Tallulah, Frost Star and Patriot found Luo Chen, he was giving orders to various troops, and then the three echelons dispersed to different locations.
"Luo Chen, the battle is over."
"No, not yet."
The patriot was keenly aware of something: "You have ambushed people in the industrial zone?"
"Yes, they no longer have the power to protect the industrial area."
The patriot thought for a moment: "I have already killed the enemy commander, I don't mind giving them another blow."
Froststar listened to her father, and although Tallulah had concerns, she finally agreed.
"Okay, get ready. Once the stormtroopers start moving, we'll drive the core city to support them."

Chapter 16 The Battle is Over
A violent explosion sounded from the barracks in the industrial zone, and could be heard even several kilometers away. The Integration Movement immediately drove the core city close to the industrial zone of the Icefield Fortress and deployed troops.
Luo Chen actually did not want to carry out this bold military action. Even though the enemy commander was dead, they still had a capable staff officer. The Integration Movement suffered heavy losses in this operation, but they have always suffered from industrial capacity problems. The production lines seized from the mobile cities at the township level were not good in quantity or quality. The best ones were used to produce civilian vehicles, and the source of raw materials was also a problem.
After liberating several mines, this problem was alleviated. However, the Integration Movement only had one weapons production line. If the soldiers' weapons broke, they could hardly get new ones. They could only wait for the workers to help repair them, or seize one the next time they fought the noble army or the patrol team. It was very difficult, but everyone still maintained high spirits.
But Luo Chen understood that if Icefield Nuo was liberated, they would make a name for themselves in the Ursus Empire, and more and more people would join the integration movement in the future. They urgently needed the industrial production line of the Icefield Fortress, especially an artillery unit, which was the main goal.
The enemy's staff also understood the importance of that place, and sent people to dismantle it at the beginning of the storm troopers' attack. The storm troopers were stopped two blocks away by the enemy and suppressed by the enemy's heavy armor and artillery mixed forces.
The support forces of both sides arrived almost at the same time, so the scope of the battlefield only expanded a little, and the stalemate still existed. Seeing that the enemy was about to dismantle the production line, Tallulah and Frost Star led the support forces here. According to the plan, she will be responsible for the task of seizing the artillery production line, while Luo Chen and Patriot will be responsible for another important ore refinery.
"Ms. Froststar, it's up to you."
"it is good."
Froststar's Originium skills felt a bit magical. A large amount of ice and snow swept out, and the entire block was instantly frozen into ice. The stormtroopers gasped, fortunately the girl was on their side.
"Assault!" Talulah turned to Froststar and said, "The enemy troops at the factory have probably dismantled the factory. The task of stopping them is left to you."
When Froststar heard the mission, he immediately led the Snow Monster Team and disappeared from Tallulah's sight.
The greatsword in Tallulah's hand caught fire, and she and the stormtroopers launched an attack on the next block. The ground that was originally covered with frost and snow was now burned by the flames. The defending troops were in great pain and had to abandon their artillery and retreat.
On the other side, Luo Chen and the Patriot were not having such a smooth time. The moment the enemy staff saw the Patriot appear on the street, they ordered their troops to fire a large number of smoke bombs to confuse the view, and then bombarded the smoke with artillery and magic.
While Luo Chen ordered the commandos around him to enter the bunker, he was trying to contact other troops. Their communications had just been disrupted by the jammer, so they could only communicate using the most primitive methods. However, the fog blocked their sight, and their shouts were immediately drowned out by the explosion.
Luo Chen’s bulletproof helmet is the cheapest version, with only a sun shield, and no need to think about thermal imaging.
"You are really crazy. Making such a thick smoke bomb is going to kill you! Are you guys Astartes?!"
Despite his complaints, he successfully reached the enemy's bunker where heavy weapons were installed. However, when he touched his waist, he found that all the armor-piercing grenades and bombs were used up. However, there was still one item left: tracer bullets.
"Hopefully the Patriots' eyesight is good enough."
Luo Chen pushed the tracer bullet into the magazine and fired at the fortress. This tracer bullet from the Human Empire had good directionality even in the smoke of the smoke bombs equipped by the Astartes. However, this thing was very tiring for the shooter's eyes, and Luo Chen didn't dare to stare at it even with his solar shield.
The Patriot did not disappoint Luo Chen. A huge spear flew over Luo Chen's head and smashed the fortress into ruins. He took a look at his automatic rifle and was immediately disgusted. If I had the strength of the Patriot, I would still use a waste like you!
However, automatic guns don't really have any major disadvantages except that the ammunition cannot be made in this world, unless it is the strange firearms dug out from the graves by the angels in Lateran. These "Ancient Terra" creations all use Originium as energy, and their power is said to be terrifying.
"Damn, I'm starting to miss my lasgun."
Following the light from the tracer bullet just now, the Patriot brought a part of his troops to meet up with Luo Chen.
"Sir Patriot, what should we do?"
"The smoke screen has a large area. We can't see them, and they can't see us either. Why don't we attack them from the side?"
So they began to move towards the residential area on the right, successfully passed through the cover of the smoke, and on a street Luo Chen met his powerful second captain again. This guy was elusive and had a lot of tricks in his head, but it was undeniable that he had a strong sense of battlefield, so his troops suffered the least casualties.
"General!"
"Second Captain, stop poking around here and follow us."
"Roger that!"
The Patriot and his shield guards took the lead, knocking away all the enemy troops along the way like a train. Luo Chen even suspected that those black shield guards were Wendigos.
However, Luo Chen and the Stormtroopers did not hesitate. They eliminated the warlocks and heavy weapons that posed a threat to the heavy armored personnel one by one, and even seized several artillery units. The Stormtroopers turned them around and bombarded the enemy positions.
At this time, Luo Chen saw a shell hit a building with a military flag, and then someone ran out surrounded by a large group of people, and it seemed that he was seriously injured.
The patriot pulled out a spear from the ruins of a bunker: "That seems to be the commander of the enemy army."
Luo Chen looked at his magical second team, or rather his magical second captain, in a daze, and the other party also looked at him in a daze.
"Good boy! I'll add ten more legs to your bowl when I get back!!!"
Luo Chen and the Patriot acted at the same time, smashing their spears into the ground of the enemy's retreating troops. They were thrown into the air by the impact and fell to the ground with a thud.
While the guards were still asleep, Luo Chen raised his gun and shot them, killed the officers around the enemy staff officer, and put the engineering shovel on the staff officer's neck.
"Don't think this is just a shovel."
The staff officer was helpless, as he had no knowledge of Originium techniques, so he had to surrender.
Now the Ursus army was truly without a commander, and the command was passed to the highest-ranking officer at this stage. After carefully analyzing the current battle situation, he also felt helpless.
"Report! The city exit is still in our hands."
"Everyone get in the car, let's evacuate here."
"Sir, there are only enough vehicles for our corps to evacuate, and those..."
"They are receiving salaries from His Majesty the Emperor. Now is the time to evacuate the loyal soldiers who protect His Majesty. We will remember their sacrifice."
"......yes!"
The Ursus regular army evacuated, and this news infected all the troops like a virus. The officers of the noble army and the pickets cursed the escaped traitors. They immediately evacuated, taking away everything they could on the way, and placed bombs in various places, destroying a large number of residential and commercial areas, causing incalculable economic losses.
The Reunion Movement drove the last few enemy forces out of the mobile city. The battle ended with a great victory for the Reunion Movement. Everyone was cheering as they captured the impossible fortress.
Luo Chen couldn't believe it. The original plan was only to take over the core area and the industrial area, but now they had taken over the entire fortress. Even though it was severely damaged by the enemy, it was also a mobile city and its value to the integration movement was immeasurable.
But Luo Chen was not happy. He did not go to the square to listen to Tallulah's speech with everyone. Although it was the general's speech after the victory and inspired everyone, Luo Chen had long lost his feelings for this kind of encouragement. Instead, the sacrificed soldiers touched his emotions more.
He pulled off everyone's name tags one by one, took out the relics from their armor or clothes and wrapped them up. There was one person he was particularly familiar with, that was his captain, a veteran who had fought all the way through the Integration Movement since its establishment. Now he was lying there quietly. Luo Chen took out a cigarette and lit it for him.
"Brother, have a safe journey. May the Emperor bless you."
Luo Chen stood up and looked at the comrades around him who were collecting relics with him. They wiped their tears and stared at Luo Chen.
"Why are you crying? These are sacrifices made on the road of revolution. They died for our common ideals. We should remember them instead of crying here. Put away your tears. For the sake of the future and for those who have passed away, we must cheer up and see the dawn of a new world for them!"
