Chapter 50: Angry Tadarin
In the past millions of years, only the sound of wind howled in the valley of Sil, but now the roar of armor broke the peace here, and the steel tracks crushed everything that blocked the advancement of the tank.
When the Space Marines as the vanguard killed the Tal'darin who was staying near the Mobius base with lightning speed, Jim Raynor knew that they might have to deal with the most difficult protoss. These fanatical protoss
Believers will protect their Creator's artifacts at all costs.
These guys with advanced technology are very difficult to deal with. Their shields can withstand the firepower of many human troops, and various sci-fi weapons can easily pry open the tin cans of the Marines.
"I'm afraid you have to be prepared to suffer heavy losses when fighting the protoss. These lunatics will not let their temple be opened easily." Renault, wearing CMC armor, said to Zemore while standing in the newly recaptured Mobius base.
arrive.
"So Lord Horus sent two armored regiments down. I think hundreds of tanks should be enough to deal with these guys." Zemor said, patting the thick armor plate of the Emperor's Baneblade tank parked aside.
.
The Tal'darim on Sir were the first protoss that the expeditionary force came into contact with officially. Horus knew very well that the technology of these eldest sons of gods was extraordinary, so he sent his most powerful armored forces to deal with these protoss.
At the same time, he also hopes to obtain as much information and technology from the protoss as possible, so the Skitarii from the Adeptus Mechanicus also participated in the operation on Sil.
These red robes are also under the command of Zemor. This is a concession made by the Adeptus Mechanicus to obtain technology. The technology that can be obtained in the Koprulu sector dazzles them. In order to obtain more knowledge, Master Clexis
The Sage handed over all the war machines he currently owned to Horus.
Now, these war machines will face the fanatical Tal'darim on Sire.
"It's the damned human thieves again. You are not allowed to enter this mysterious place. Kill those intruders who do not know whether to live or die!" Tal'darin executive officer issued an order furiously.
In the Mobius base, Renault and his friends have arrived in front of the laser drill.
"Look at this big baby in front of you. It has 174 billion watts of power. The energy of the sun is gathering at your fingertips. Let's start drilling the door of the temple open." Tychus was a little excited, and the man didn't like it.
What about the tall, thick laser cannon?
"Why don't we just use the light spear to open a ventilation window for the temple on the track?" Zemor said while looking at the blazing beam.
"Objective to the plan, the temple is a high-value research facility. Orbital bombardment has a high probability of damaging the temple."
The Lord of the Skitarii who landed on the surface with Zemor did not hesitate to oppose Zemor's idea. The Adeptus Mechanicus could not tolerate such a loss.
"Okay, I'm just talking." Zemore muttered, quickly walking into the temporary headquarters, which will become the brains of the offensive operation on Sil.
That's right, for the attack, the expeditionary force mobilized two entire armored regiments this time, including twenty-four super-heavy tanks and nearly three hundred vehicles of various types, as well as three hundred space warriors and an entire brigade of skitarii.
Such a configuration is simply overkill for guarding the laser drill, so Zemor plans to give the Tal'darin Protoss here some surprises from humans.
The Rangers also participated in this offensive battle. Swann's new toy siege tank appeared on the battlefield for the first time. In siege mode, the 180mm impact cannon used by this tank was almost devastating.
Destroy the land.
Soon, the attack began, and the first one to appear was the air force. Taldarin stationed here did not have much air force, so the fighter wing gained air superiority in the theater in a short period of time.
The Thunderhawk equipped with a saturation bombing module quickly flew across the sky and dropped guided melta bombs and incendiary bombs mounted under its wings on Tal'darin's base. The melt quickly turned Tal'darin's base into a sea of flames, and the buildings were only as long as
If hit by a melta bomb, it will melt and collapse, and the Zealot's shield cannot withstand such high temperatures.
The Tal'darin executive in the base looked angrily at the Thunderhawks flying wantonly in the sky. These human aircraft were rough and thick-skinned, and the small number of photon turrets could not pose a sufficient threat. The continuous bombings forced them to disperse and leave the base.
.
However, before they could launch an attack on humans, the roar of tanks filled their ears. The first thing that appeared in their field of vision were several Land speed attack boats. The hunter-killer missiles mounted on both sides of the speed attack boats broke away instantly.
The rack flew towards the executive officer who was gathering troops, and the heavy bolter on the gun rack began to roar.
The hunter-killer missile directly overloaded the zealot's shield, and then the bolter shell exploded the zealot who had lost his shield. The shields of the remaining zealots continued to flash with fire and gradually dimmed.
"Blasphemers, don't even think about breaking into our holy land!" The furious executive flew into the air and released a psychic wave that directly blew up a speed attack boat. However, several other speed attack boats quickly approached the executive and used multiple tubes of heat melt to inflict damage on him.
He takes a shower.
The melt wave continued to roast the Executor's shields, eventually burning the lone Executor into a ball of fire, but four speed attack craft and two Leman Russ tanks were also destroyed.
The Taldarin troops who lost the command of the executive officer were divided and strangled by the armored troops that followed. One or two shots from the large-caliber automatic cannon on the Leman Russ tank were enough to kill the Zealots, and the lasers and bolts on both sides also
Constantly harvesting Tal'darin's life.
The divided and surrounded Tal'darin was not without threats. Their light blades were enough to cut through Leman Russ's armor. In just half an hour of fighting, nearly ten tanks had been destroyed by close combat. The Stalker's particles shattered into pieces.
The Rupture Cannon is also capable of destroying Leman Russ's main armor.
But no matter what happens, the situation of the battle will not change, because the Emperor's Baneblade has been thrown into the battlefield, and the huge Baneblade cannon blasted the Tal'darin who were resisting in a group into the sky.
The high-ranking Templars who resisted summoned a psychic storm in an attempt to destroy this terrible war machine, but the energy enough to shred the Space Marines only damaged part of the armor on the poison blade.
Just as the armored forces were clashing with Tal'darin's army, the rear artillery group was also preparing. They were about to conduct a saturation bombardment of another Tal'darin base on the planet. In addition to the basilisk self-propelled artillery of the expeditionary force, the Rangers
Siege tanks were also involved.
