Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

Chapter 30 Counterattack

A full-scale counterattack began.

Since this was a counterattack that everyone could predict and see, all units were prepared even though it started very urgently.

The unmanned artillery automatically rushes to the best shooting location under the dispatch of the main control intelligence, preparing to pour artillery shells on the rebels after the ground troops are ready.

The infantrymen entered the weapons depot, put on power armor, and quickly picked up the neatly displayed laser rifles.

The armored soldiers drove the Leman Russ tank out of the parking spot under the command of the logistics machinery. They had long learned how to drive this war machine in the training system integrated in the tank.

Duncan was prepared faster than all friendly forces. When he learned from the communicator that other friendly forces were ready, he immediately entered the Leman Russ tank and ordered the entire regiment to move forward.

"How should we fight?"

The voice of the acting commander of the 31st Regiment came from the tank cockpit. He was a young man highly respected by his comrades. He took over command responsibilities after Albert's death, but he still needed to learn more from his predecessors in this aspect of war.

"Advance." Duncan responded with only two words.

This is Qin Mo's order.

There is no specific war plan, no detailed orders of which troops are to fight where, there is only advancement.

This has to make people wonder what the real purpose of this counterattack is.

"No chatting in the communication channel!"

"More detailed orders have been issued."

"The order of all our troops is to advance, attract the main force of the rebels as much as possible, and create better battlefield conditions for the regiment commander and his guards."

Brian's voice came from the communicator.

Duncan was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but ask: "Can I ask, what are the legion commander and the others going to do?"

"They wanted to assassinate the leader of the rebels. I didn't know until they wanted to avoid the plan being leaked."

Hearing this, Duncan suddenly realized, and he leaned half of his body out of the hatch to check the situation of his troops.

The infantry, all wearing power armor, gathered near the ten tanks of the regiment and marched forward.

The unmanned artillery in the rear had already opened fire, and after the thunderous rumble, dense explosions appeared on the horizon directly ahead.

Before the flames of the explosion faded away, the second round of artillery salvo had begun.

A moment later, two firepower drones flew into the sky, hovering above the ground troops and advancing slowly.

There are even logistical machines joining the ranks.

When everyone in the group was getting closer and closer to the rebels, another drone flew to the front of the team and deployed a horizontal gravity shield. There were red warning projections around the range of the gravity shield to warn others not to get close. within the scope of action.

The white medical drone roared overhead and flew into the distance. It was probably that the troops there had exchanged fire with the enemy and there were injured people.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor." Duncan was a little surprised.

The counterattack was more powerful than he imagined. He thought it was just a suicidal counterattack launched by everyone before they died...

"Counterattack!" Duncan raised his chainsword and shouted over the 87th Regiment's internal communication channel, "For the Emperor! For the Legion Commander!"

The 87th Regiment is getting closer and closer to the rebel forces.

These rebels were purged by artillery, and there were not many people left, but they were still fighting back, except that all bullets from live ammunition weapons were stopped by the gravity shield, and only a small amount of lasers hit the power armor or tank armor.

Infantrymen activate biological detection to search for any surviving enemies, then clear them and move on.

The situation on the 87th regiment's side is not unique. Other regiments on the entire front are even advancing faster.

While the ground troops were advancing steadily, Qin Mo, Gray and others were already riding transport drones towards the interior of the rebel front.

They had already passed many rebel units, which seemed to know what they were going to do. They set up anti-aircraft positions and opened fire on the transport aircraft.

Standing on the transport plane, you can't even see the ground below. You can only see a huge amount of anti-aircraft fire blocked by the gravity shield. Occasionally, two missiles will fly over, but they will also be crushed by the gravity shield.

"Friendly forces have helped us contain most of the rebels, but we may still face tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of rebels. Our next battle will be very difficult."

"But we have to finish, no matter how many people we sacrifice, if I die you will complete the mission."

"As long as the clan leader can be killed, the situation will be reversed."

Qin Mo spoke to the other five people wearing guard power armor to boost their morale.

But the morale of these men needed no boost at all.

"As long as you're here, there's nothing we can't do," Gray said.

"Of course." Qin Mo smiled and nodded.

Everyone else smiled and nodded.

After waiting for a while, the transport plane changed from flying to floating state, which meant that the target location had been reached.

This is the location of the rebel clan leader that Qin Mo found through the locator.

Qin Mo stood up and walked to the door of the transport plane. Gray and others immediately stood up and followed.

"Let's go down in line and activate the gravity shield immediately after leaving the transport plane." Qin Mo said, turning off the gravity shield of the unmanned transport aircraft and jumping out first.

Since his fall wasn't perfect, his jetpack cushioned him a bit, allowing him to fall in a better position.

Others have fallen behind.

Amid the intensive anti-aircraft fire, the gravity shield continued to protect the wearer of the Guards Power Armor as usual.

The rebels on the ground could only see six figures falling from the artillery fire. They immediately dispersed, looking for or building bunkers, and prepared heavy weapons.

Gray fell to the ground first, then the second person, the third person...

Qin Mo, who finally buffered in the air, landed at the front.

The six people stood up straight and looked at the rebels ahead.

Intensive attacks immediately swept towards the six people.

These attacks were so intensive that they had to turn on the thermal imaging vision, otherwise they would not be able to see what was happening outside the gravity shield.

"Psychic reaction detected!"

A prompt sounded, and a purple mark appeared on the HUD of the six people.

Through thermal imaging, you can see that it is a huge alien seven meters tall, and its psychic attack may be coming soon.

Qin Mo led the other five people and rushed out. The jetpack behind him provided strong thrust as he ran.

Skip all unnecessary enemies and go straight to the clan leader's location.

Qin Mo ran at the front, ready to resist the psychic attacks. His eyes were fixed on the clan leader.

But the strange thing is that the clan leader failed to release a psychic attack. Its huge body suddenly trembled and fell to the ground.

Qin Mo didn't have time to think about what the hell this was. He immediately controlled the shoulder cannon and fired at the clan leader.

The same goes for everyone else.

Six beams of light shot towards the clan leader and vaporized the enemies along the way, followed by twelve light balls flying out to release a rain of beams.

The patriarch's huge body reacted immediately and rolled twice to the left on the ground to avoid the incoming beam.

It was not dead, but most of the rebels around it were dead, which made it very angry.

The clan leader's anger also led to the anger of the entire rebel army.

At this moment, whether it was Qin Mo's side or others, all the rebels on the front were in a rage, and they began to counterattack regardless of the cost.

Qin Mo advanced while constantly shooting at the clan leader and "purging" the rebels with shoulder cannons. Countless rebels were crushed by the gravity shield, but they seemed to be crazy and kept squeezing into the scope of the gravity shield.

The leader seems to know the trajectory of the shoulder cannon before it fires, and it always dodges.

Until it tried to release a psychic attack again after another roll, and suddenly fell down as before, being hit by the beam that flew in front of it in the blink of an eye.
