Chapter 605
"Notify the ground troops that the First Corps will advance southward and eliminate the Ork barbarian tribes passing by. The Second Corps and the Third Corps will advance southwest. The Fourth and Fifth Corps will advance southeast and eliminate all enemies along the way!"
Following Jiang Yu's order, the ground troops began to attack in all directions.
In the advance base, there was a sudden commotion.
Snowflakes rolled on the ice field, and a large number of bison armored vehicles and Chimera personnel carriers were loaded with soldiers to attack their respective targets in divisions.
Each team has nearly a thousand vehicles.
Looking around, it's really shocking.
When driving away from the ice field, what the star army faced was an endless desert.
In the desert, battle is imminent.
Another new day.
In the western hemisphere of Star Shatuo, in a certain desolate desert.
The sun is high in the sky, and the hot sun is shining on the earth.
Originally, this was a dead place, a forbidden zone of life.
For several years, or even decades, no living things will appear.
But today, a sudden roar of engines broke the tranquility of this world.
On the sand in the distance, a sand wave is sweeping.
Nearly a thousand armored vehicles are running in a relatively flat desert.
Wherever it passed, the tracks rolled up billowing yellow sand.
At the turret mouth of a Leman Lust tank, an officer leaned out half of his body.
He wears a spinning hood over his face, and holds a telescope in his hand, looking ahead.
Since landing yesterday, he has led his 013th Division from the frontline base to the destination.
Although so many years have passed, he is still only a major.
But Pine was already satisfied.
After all, he has no background.
If he hadn't fought side by side with the "King", he wouldn't be a major.
The empire has not waged war abroad in these years.
Although the Imperial Navy has fought many battles, the Star Militia Army has never fought a single war.
Without war, there is no channel to build military merit.
Pyne thought that was all he would do for the rest of his life.
But fate played a trick on him.
The empire's foreign war has begun.
The enemy is still the ferocious Orc barbarians.
Although Pine has never encountered those terrifying green-skinned orcs.
But in the old empire era, many stories about green-skinned orcs were circulated in the empire.
All in all, it was a terrible race.
As a soldier, as a member of the Astral Army, how could he be afraid of an enemy he had never encountered before.
For the upcoming battle, Pine was only excited.
He looked down at the big man below him.
The thick metal body and the thick barrel gave Pine a great sense of security.
"Colonel Pyne, according to the map, we have arrived near our destination, and we will be there after we cross the sand dune in front of us!"
Hearing this, Pine put away his wild thoughts.
Now it's on the battlefield, so you can't be distracted.
Looking up at the sky, Pine turned on the communicator.
"Stop, stop, stop going!"
Following Paine's order, the marching team gradually stopped.
The roar of the vehicle has also been reduced a lot.
Raising the binoculars in his hand, Pine observed the nearby terrain.
The desert terrain is relatively flat.
The vicinity here was originally an endless flat sandy land.
But the dunes ahead blocked the way.
Due to the height of the terrain, a mountain pass is formed on both sides of the dune.
"The self-propelled artillery regiment immediately went to the sand dunes to build an artillery position. The first and second regiments immediately stood by the mountain pass on the left side of the front. The third and fourth regiments immediately went to the right mountain pass and stood by. Act now!"
Following Pine's order, the armored convoy that had just stopped moved again.
After the dunes, the army splits into three.
The petrified lizard self-propelled artillery regiment stopped advancing on the spot and began to build artillery positions.
The Leman Rus tank that Pine was on stopped under the dune.
Jumping from the Leman Russ tank, Pyne climbed the dunes with a small group of Astra Militarum soldiers.
Once at the top of the sand dunes, the sight in front of you suddenly becomes vast.
Not far ahead, an oasis came into Pine's eyes.
Standing on the top of the mountain, Pine observed the oasis with a telescope.
It seems very close, but in fact it is very far away, more than 20 kilometers away.
The oasis is so big that you can't see the end left and right.
Although there is very little vegetation on the edge of the oasis, the vegetation is denser the deeper you go into the oasis.
"waaaaagh!"
At this moment, the mutation protruded.
Yellow sand billowed in the oasis, and a large number of figures rushed out of the oasis and rushed over here.
It's an Orc barbarian...
Although they were far away, Pine could see them clearly through the telescope.
Compared to the green-skinned orcs encountered on New Terra.
They are better equipped and wear armor.
All of them had machetes in one hand and rifles in the other.
There are also a large number of vehicles rushing over at a faster speed.
Bear the brunt of a group of motorcycle party.
There were nearly a thousand in number, and they rushed out of the oasis like a storm, racing wildly in the desert.
Behind them there are some wheeled trucks.
"Wow!"
The whistling sound of shells suddenly approached from far away in the sky.
"boom!"
At the moment when it became harsh, a cloud of flaming mushrooms rose in the desert in front of the dunes.
It was very powerful, and the sand waves it stirred rushed up to [-] meters into the sky.
Even though they were separated by hundreds of meters, the oncoming air waves made Pine a little unsteady.
Pine got down quickly and scanned the oasis with his binoculars.
Flames flickering on the edge of the oasis caught Pyne's attention.
A closer look reveals the culprit of the shelling.
It was a cannon similar to a basilisk self-propelled artillery.
There's a long barrel with lots of little grits working on it.
"One regiment, two regiments, three regiments, four regiments, attack from all fronts!"
This is not an offensive and defensive battle, but an encounter battle.
Without any hesitation, Pine immediately gave the order to attack across the board.
As the attacking side, the Star Militia Army simply didn't have time to establish a line of defense.
Now they can only fight head-to-head with the Orc barbarians.
Following Pine's order, the engines on the mountain pass on both sides of the dune roared.
A Leman Lust tank rushed out first, running wildly on the sand.
The Chimera personnel carrier, followed by the Bison armored vehicle.
As soon as it left the mountain pass, the Leman Ruth tank slowed down, spread out, and moved forward slowly.
Chimera personnel carriers, Bison armored vehicles also stopped.
As the hatch opened, a large number of Astral Army soldiers rushed out of the vehicle.
"boom!"
The moving Leman Rus tank opened fire.
Long tongues of flame spewed out from the thick muzzle.
The rumble of shelling suddenly resounded through the sky,
The flame marks visible to the naked eye shot out and fell into the charging orc motorcycle party.
"boom!"
I saw a flash of fire, and a cloud of flame mushrooms rose from the group of orc motorcycle party.
The billowing sand column rises up, and the powerful impact smashes across the surroundings.
For a while, the orcs and motorcyclists fell on their backs.
They are very smart, and after being shelled, they scattered.
Scattered to charge the Astra Militarum.
"Artillery position, fire when you are ready!"
Although the distance between the two sides was still far away, Pyne seemed a little urgent.
Green-skinned orcs have powerful melee abilities.
Once they got close, the Ork barbarians, who had an advantage in numbers, would cause great casualties to the star army.
"boom!"
Pine just finished speaking.
There was a roar of shelling behind him.
A hundred petrified lizard self-propelled artillery were lined up in five rows, their long barrels aimed at the sky.
Amidst the rumble of shelling, long tongues of flame spewed out from the muzzle.
A few seconds later, on the battlefield.
Behind the orc motorcycle party, dense explosions occurred.
Clouds of flaming mushrooms soared up, raising sand pillars [-] meters high.
The wheeled truck that was charging behind with the motorcycle party was immediately bombarded.
Dozens of wheeled trucks were instantly destroyed and turned into spare parts.
"Fire and destroy them!"
The green-skinned orc's counterattack was not weak either.
From time to time, a flaming mushroom cloud rose from the front of the Star Militia Army.
Some Astra Militarum soldiers were immediately blown away.
The ones that are even closer have no bones left.
More than a dozen Chimera personnel carriers and bison armored vehicles have been turned into a pile of scrap metal.
The Orc Bike Party is very fast.
It soon arrived at the front line of the Star Militia Army.
The Leman Rus tank's secondary weapon, the heavy bolter, fired first.
"Da da!"
The sound of gunfire resounded like tearing cloth.
The flaming bullet marks turned into fire dragons and swept away towards the charging orc motorcycle.
"laugh!"
Wherever they passed, the green-skinned orcs were smashed into pieces.
Astra Militarum soldiers behind the Leman Ruth tanks also began covering fire.
The laser rifle in his hand shot out streaks of red beams.
The on-board weapons of the accompanying armored vehicles also began to spew flames.
The dense metal storm caused heavy losses to the orc's motorcycle party.
They were about to rush into the line of the Star Realm Army, but they were destroyed one by one.
"Destroy the opponent's artillery position immediately, fast!"
On the top of the dune, Pine has been observing the situation on the battlefield.
On the battlefield, the two sides are already exchanging fire.
Fire marks and bullet marks danced wildly, and rumbling explosions rang out.
Only the orc's long-range artillery can cause damage to the army.
It is extremely powerful, not smaller than a petrified lizard.
Although the number is not as large as that of the basilisk self-propelled artillery, the firepower is extremely fierce.
From time to time, a flaming mushroom cloud would rise up in the front of the star army.
Following Pine's order, the basilisk self-propelled artillery position stopped firing.
The long barrel was lowered slightly, locking onto the artillery position of the green-skinned orcs.
"Fire, let go!"
With the roar of the flag bearer.
Hundreds of petrified lizard self-propelled artillery roared.
The muzzle shook violently, and a long tongue of flame spewed out.
A few seconds later, in the oasis.
A large area was flickering with fire, and a cloud of flaming mushrooms rose up.
The huge power lifted a large amount of vegetation, and some metal debris can still be seen among them.
One shelling completely silenced the orc artillery position in the oasis.
"The regiments stop advancing, fight and retreat, focus on attacking and defending, and avoid close contact with the enemy."
At this time, on the battlefield, the orc army was less than five miles away from the star army's line.
Pyne gave the orders to the regiments to cease their charge.
Following Paine's order, on the battlefield, the regiments of the Astral Army who were covering each other's advance suddenly stopped advancing.
The forward Leman Rus tank began to retreat.
Behind the sand dunes, the petrified lizard's self-propelled artillery roared again.
The sound of rumbling shelling resounded through the sky.
A few seconds later, a cloud of flaming mushrooms suddenly rose in the orc army.
The sparkling fire, the surging flames, and the shock wave swept everything around.
A large number of ferocious green-skinned orcs were swallowed by the flames, their bodies were torn apart, and they were blown away by the shock wave.
Facing the bombing, the green-skinned orcs also responded.
There is a very peculiar unit in the orc army.
Similar to a mecha, with an orc appearance structure.
It is nearly five meters high and walks on two legs.
They stopped, their bloated sides rising slightly.
The diameter of the flames flickered, and the whistling sound of "Wuwu" resounded through the sky and the earth.
They fired a series of distorted flying missiles from weapons similar to rocket pods in their hands.
Like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, densely packed missiles flew distortedly in the sky, rushing straight into the line of the Star Guards.
