Chapter 106: Who Will Play Their Last Card First?
This is a baptism of blood and metal.
WAAAGH! An energy field enveloped the entire battlefield, greatly enhancing the combat power and speed of all the greenskins, making them even more frenzied and fearless.
No matter how fiercely they charged, once they stepped into the bowl-shaped trap set by Ronin, they would be immediately torn to shreds by crossfire from all directions.
Bullets, shells, and laser beams intertwined to form an impenetrable net of death, firmly keeping the green tide three hundred meters away.
The fighting was most intense in the center of the battlefield.
Thirteen Leman Rustanks roared into action, kicking up clouds of dark red dust. Compared to the combined forces of 400,000, they were as insignificant as a drop in the ocean, yet they unleashed astonishing destructive power.
The main gun roared, the heavy machine guns spat out tongues of fire, and the flamethrowers sprayed streams of fire onto the dense green-skinned troops.
Each tank is a mobile battle fortress; wherever it goes, green-skinned animals are easily torn apart, like cheese being sliced by a red-hot dagger.
Following Luo Ning's orders, the tank units did not charge recklessly.
After they reached the center of the bowl-shaped formation, they immediately turned around and, using their heavy armor and powerful firepower, fought and retreated, constantly breaking the Greenskins' formation.
Their sole mission is not to crush ordinary greenskins, but to work with the combat nuns on the roof to precisely hunt down those greenskin leaders and elite big guys that ordinary firepower cannot shake.
When a green-skinned leader, over three meters tall, charged into the bowl-shaped area wielding a massive chainsaw, he was immediately locked onto by three tanks simultaneously.
The green-skinned leader roared, slapped away the ordinary kid blocking his way, and charged towards the tank with all his might.
Its thick iron armor can easily stop bullets from ordinary rifles.
The tank immediately retreated, maintaining a safe distance from it at all times.
The main gun kept firing, and shells exploded on the green-skinned leader, sending fragments of his armor flying everywhere.
The main task of tank units is to engage the enemy's green-skinned leader, or even the leader of war.
However, their fighting style was still not to use themselves as bulldozers, but to use long-range firepower to attack, while constantly adjusting their position to create distance between themselves and the Greenskin leader.
The green-skinned leader in this battle was incredibly powerful. In a WAA with a strength of 200,000 people, their size, speed, and destructive power far surpassed the leader Ronin encountered in the old mines of Vatos VII.
They didn't give the other side a chance for close combat.
Once a greenskin leader breaks through the fire net and gets close to the tank, the combat nun on the roof will immediately jump down.
The sanctified power sword gleamed with golden light, easily slicing through the flesh and armor of the green-skinned creatures; the bullets from the bolt gun could accurately blow their heads off.
Meanwhile, Ronin was also keeping a close eye on the battlefield through the Servo Skull. The green ocean of green-skinned boys and charging boys had finally entered the bowl-shaped trap, and the distance between them and Ronin's army had finally been reduced to within three hundred meters!
Just as he had expected, the war leader of this green-skinned tribe was by no means a reckless fool. Seeing that the central charge was repeatedly thwarted, it immediately changed tactics, mobilizing a large number of green-skinned lads, farts, and squigglies to launch a frenzied encirclement from both flanks of the battlefield, attempting to outflank the human army and break this deadly bowl-shaped trap.
Meanwhile, Luo Ning commanded a troop carrier force guarding both flanks to begin operations, using their high speed and mobility to intercept the enemy's flanking forces.
At the same time, he also committed the last reserve force he had left at the rear to the battlefield, and began to move to both sides to establish a new defensive line on both sides of the main force, intercepting any greenskins that broke through the chimera armored vehicles and preventing them from harassing the flanks of the main force.
The objective has been achieved.
They successfully drew away the majority of the Greenskins' main force, greatly relieving the pressure on Kalon II hive.
But now is the most difficult time.
The Greenskins' offensive grew increasingly fierce, and the distance between the two battle lines was shrinking every second.
Amidst the clamor of the warlord, the Greenskins' almost reckless and frenzied offensive was truly effective.
Once they get close, your army's long-range firepower advantage will be completely lost.
These ordinary soldiers, who had not undergone any genetic modification, were no match for the green-skinned soldiers in close combat.
Can't wait any longer.
Luo Ning gave the order, revealing his last trump card.
He took a deep breath and swung his arm sharply: "Tank units, retreat across the board! Heavy infantry, advance!"
The moment the order was given, Leman Rustank turned around and quickly retreated to his own position.
The three thousand howitzers and five thousand rocket artillerymen who were already on standby at the third line of defense immediately rushed to the front.
Under the cover of the first rank of infantry, they quickly set up their weapons.
No aiming is needed; just unleash your firepower at the dense sea of green people in front of you.
In an instant, the entire battlefield was engulfed in the sound of explosions.
Countless grenades and rockets, trailing fiery plumes, hurtled out like a rain of fire, crashing into the charging green-skinned troops. The dense explosions merged into a continuous wall of fire that advanced relentlessly.
This was true tactical-level bombing; the scene was incredibly spectacular, even overshadowing the high-explosive shells of the powerful petrified lizard self-propelled artillery.
With just one volley, the green-skinned soldiers who had rushed into the center of the bowl-shaped formation were all wiped out.
The dark red earth was turned over again and again, and everywhere there were green-skinned corpses and burning chariot wreckage.
Even the tough, thick-skinned green-skinned leaders were seriously injured, and the elite big guys around them suffered heavy casualties.
A strange silence fell over the battlefield for less than a second, as if both sides were stunned by the devastating firepower.
But the next second, with an even more ferocious roar from the Greenskin War Leader behind them, the Greenskin troops surged forward again like a tidal wave, charging faster and more frantically than before.
The heavy artillerymen continued to unleash a barrage of ammunition, and the tank units charged forward once again.
But just then, bad news came from the flank.
A raiding party led by a Greenskin leader broke through the Chimera troop carrier defenses and charged into the reserve force's flanking formation protecting the main force.
The reserve team's combat effectiveness was already weak, and it lost its range advantage.
The green-skinned leader instantly transformed into an unstoppable monster, wielding a giant axe and rampaging through the crowd.
Each swing of the axe could cut more than a dozen soldiers in half at the waist.
The soldiers' bullets only produced a few sparks when they hit it.
Fear began to spread, and the soldiers at the front retreated in panic, while the soldiers at the rear were swept away by the fleeing crowd, and the originally orderly formation collapsed instantly.
It was clear that the right flank was about to fall completely, and the entire flank of the army would be exposed to the Greenskins' attack.
Just as the soldiers were scrambling to escape and the battle line was about to collapse.
A cold, metallic torrent suddenly swept past the fleeing soldiers and rushed toward the green-skinned leader.
Viktor's fighter servants have finally officially joined the battle.
