Warhammer: From the Devouring C'tan Fragments

Chapter 129: Fighting Between Space Warriors 4

Although the combat experience of the Astralis Space Marines is not as good as that of the Astartes Space Marines, the Astralis Space Marines can still easily defeat the Astartes Space Marines by relying on their numerical advantage.

The Star Marines that boarded the Iron Wall's battle barge this time were a complete battalion of one thousand men, while the Astartes Space Marines responsible for defense numbered only a few hundred.

Because the Iron Wall Regiment has been participating in battles all over the Empire, the 1,000-man regiment has never been fully staffed. In addition, this time, while driving assault boats to resist, all the Astartes of a company of aerospace fighter formation were killed, and the number of people in the Iron Wall Regiment was even more disadvantaged.

The Astro Space Marines would hunt down the hiding Space Marines in five-man combat teams, and the defending Space Marines would attack the Astro Space Marines in combat teams of two to five people. In most cases, five Astro Space Marines would surround and attack two or three Astartes Space Marines who were blocking their way.

As the Astartes Space Marine squads continued to lose men, the situation of the Iron Wall Regiment became more difficult. Although the servitors and auxiliary personnel in the battle barges were fighting desperately to resist the attacking Stellar Space Marines, these people were just wasting one more bullet in front of the powerful Stellar Space Marines.

The Star Marines' line continued to advance, leaving behind the corpses of Star Marines and Astartes Space Marines along the way. Led by Kanas, the Star Marines gradually approached the bridge of the battle barge.

No matter where these Star Marines attack from, their final destination is the bridge of the battle barge. As long as the bridge has not been taken, the regiment still has the last hope. Only by completely taking over the bridge can it be considered a victory in this war.

In the dim corridor, the Star Space Marine walking in front suddenly raised his arm, and Kanas and others following behind also stopped and raised the Ripper rifles in their hands and pointed them into the depths of the corridor.

"tread"

The dull footsteps kept approaching Kanas and others. Under Kanas's gaze, three Astartes Space Marines wearing heavy armor came out. After seeing the Star Space Marine team not far away, these three heavily armored Astartes Space Marines roared and rushed towards the team where Kanas was.

"Eliminate these evil heretics."

"For the great God-Emperor, for the Five Hundred Worlds of Ultramar."

The various weapons mounted on the outer armor were madly pouring terrifying firepower towards the Kanas team. The sharp explosion sounds of "swoosh" continued to ring in the corridor. The heavy footsteps of the Space Marines as they ran wildly made a dull sound when they stepped heavily on the deck of the battleship.

These three Astartes Space Marines wearing armor and outer plate have come with the determination to die to stop the attacking Stellar Space Marine squadron. Not far behind here is the bridge where the Chapter Master is.

For the Astartes Space Marines of the Iron Wall Chapter, if they let the enemy get close to the Chapter Master before they sacrifice themselves, it would be a lifelong shame for them. Even death could not wash away the shame brought about by their incompetence. The three of them rushed out to stop the attacking Kanas Squad regardless of the Chapter Master's orders.

The attacks launched by the three heavily armored Astartes Space Marines were easily blocked by the void shields worn by the Star Space Marines. The long-range attacks of the three heavily armored Astartes Space Marines did not cause any damage to the Kanas team.

"Attack, send these pseudo-emperor's lackeys to see their pseudo-emperor."

Under Kanas's command, more than twenty Star Space Warriors pulled the triggers in their hands.

"Da da da"

More than twenty Heavy Ripper rifles kept firing at the approaching Space Marines. The bullets fired from the Heavy Ripper rifles kept shattering the thick ceramic steel armor of the outer armor, and the bullets kept hitting the flesh and blood of the Space Marines inside the power armor.

The three Space Marines under concentrated fire rushed forward, charging for more than ten meters before falling powerlessly backwards. One of the Space Marines roared in his dying moments:

"Master Chapter Master, we can no longer accompany you in destroying the enemies of the Emperor."

Although the armor's defense and firepower are amazing, its disadvantage is also very obvious, that is, it is extremely heavy, even heavier than the Terminators worn by Astartes Space Marines.

Coupled with the loss of the Empire's small shield technology, this heavy power armor can only be regarded as a movable target when facing the Stellar Space Marines, and is not as fast as the targets used during training.

Coupled with the powerful armor-piercing ability of the heavy ripper rifle, penetrating the ceramic steel armor on the outer armor only requires a few more bullets. What's more, there is also an Earth Dreadnought in the combat team led by Kanas.

Along the way, the Earth Dreadnought didn't have a chance to attack, and the enemies had already been dealt with by the Star Space Marines. Kanas brought the Earth Dreadnought with him just in case.

Kanas looked at the three dead Space Marines and said to the battle team, "Keep moving forward."

The Kanas team stepped over the three bodies lying on the ground and continued to approach the bridge.

"Good brother, may your soul return to the Golden Throne." Schnuo, who was in the bridge, looked at the three dead battle brothers and couldn't help feeling sad.

Although these three fighting brothers disobeyed his orders and went out without authorization, after all, these three were brothers who had fought with him for hundreds of years, and now his fighting brothers sacrificed their lives for his own safety.

Shi Nuo stood up from the giant chair in the bridge, looked at the dozen or so brothers who were still standing by his side to protect him, and said calmly to everyone:

"Brothers, now is the time to sacrifice our lives for the Imperium, for the great God-Emperor, and for the Five Hundred Worlds of Ultramar."

After hearing what Chapter Master Shino said, the Astartes who were responsible for protecting the Chapter Master knelt on one knee, lowered their heads and said in a deep voice:

"For the great God-Emperor, for the Five Hundred Worlds of Ultramar."

Shi Nuo stood up and walked out of the bridge. "Sacrifice is the main theme of the empire. Only our sacrifice can bring peace to the empire."

As Shi Nuo walked, his words seemed extremely heavy. Shi Nuo had fought for the empire for hundreds of years and was already extremely tired. This time, he saw his own destiny, which was to shed the last drop of blood for the empire.

As Shi Nuo walked, a dozen or so regiment guards who were kneeling on one knee on the ground quickly stood up, followed Shi Nuo closely, and walked out of the bridge together.
