From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man - Chapter 431

c420 Just the prelude to the final victory

Soon after, in the square of the capital building located in the core of the city;

Ta-ta-ta-ta!

Bang! Bang! !

The sound of gunfire and gunfire was everywhere, and the atmosphere was filled with tension and chaos.

The sounds of various weapons came one after another, and the most shocking one was the bolter firearms used by the Space Wolves.

The sound of its explosive gunfire was like thunder.

Looking down from the sky, the scene of the square was in full view.

The last line of defense composed of the guards of the “15” government authorities, the army infantry, and the security forces of major companies tried their best to resist the powerful offensive from the 14th Company of the Space Wolves.

However, although the troops gathered here were close to 10,000, the overall trend of defeat could not be reversed when facing two Hell Paratroopers battle companies, six Space Wolves battle squads, and organized biological weapons and combat mechas.

The Hell Paratroopers are equipped with advanced hard-light and Gauss guns, and with their excellent shooting accuracy, they can launch precise and fatal strikes outside the effective range of the enemy’s individual weapons.

Tyrants and mechas have assumed the responsibilities of “armored units”.

Plasma cannons, rotating Gauss cannons, and micro missiles are used to suppress the resistance of the “15” authorities.

The real armored units affiliated with the government army and major companies, such as main battle tanks and armored vehicles, are also trying their best to coordinate defense, but facing the wolves’ tidal attacks, the effect is minimal.

The armor of the guards, army infantry and security forces is almost powerless in front of these advanced weapons, especially the penetration of Gauss magnetic nail bullets and hard light beams, making them as fragile as paper.

Moreover, the power of the bolt bullet is even more terrifying.

Once hit by the bolt bullet, there is almost no possibility of survival, and the only result is death.

Even a warrior as strong as Astartes, without the Titanium Armor, would never be able to face off against the fully armed brothers, not to mention the local military and security forces who are “mortals”.

In fact, the human military and major companies in the “One Five” universe have launched the so-called “super soldier” program, attempting to comprehensively improve the combat effectiveness of soldiers through genetic modification and technological enhancement, but there has not been any successful case.

Facing more than 40 Astartes (Wild Wolves) who have reached the ceiling level in the “Super Soldier” program, the front line will inevitably fall into a complete defeat.

Moreover, as a social background with a cyberpunk tone, the loyalty and reliability of local military members are not even as good as the security forces of major companies.

As the battle escalates, the atmosphere in the square becomes more tense.

The Space Wolves charge forward like beasts, attacking like a tide, and keep moving forward against the fierce firepower.

Buzz~Buzz——Sizzle————!!

When a captain of the Wild Wolf Squad wielded a chain sword and split a security guard in half, blood splattered everywhere, the morale of the government army and security forces began to shake violently.

Most of the “locals” realized that the situation had reached the “final moment”.

“Attention everyone!! Our support is coming soon! Hold on!”

An army major shouted loudly in the chaos, trying to boost morale, but his voice seemed insignificant in the violent artillery fire.

Boom~Boom–! !

At this moment, a main battle tank in the distance was shaken to pieces by the explosion, and thick smoke rose into the sky.

The aftermath of the explosion knocked the nearby soldiers to the ground, and the chaotic scene made people feel desperate.

“All.”

Just as a commander of the security force realized that the situation was irreversible and was about to lead his subordinates to launch a suicide charge–

Swish–!

The commander’s head was directly cut off by a Wild Wolf captain.

Before he felt the pain, the beheaded commander’s consciousness was completely scattered and he fell into endless darkness.

At this moment, the “One Five” universe has not yet been officially incorporated into the human empire, and not many people know about the emperor.

Therefore, the human souls who died at this stage cannot be sensed by Sui Yang at all, nor can they be “pulled into” any heaven or hell plane in the “One Three” universe.

However, in this fierce battle, the government army and security forces did not have any thoughts about the destination of the soul.

What they faced was a more urgent life and death decision than the destination of the soul, otherwise they would be completely swallowed up in this unavoidable battle.

So

“Defeated! Defeated! Our army was defeated!”

“They are simply crazy, crazy!”

“Run!!”

So the local military members immediately lost their morale and turned to flee.

After all, after witnessing the Space Wolves tearing apart their comrades and security guards like crazy, and seeing the Paratroopers, even if they were shot, they would not care about life and death, and continue to charge and attack them as long as they were not fatally injured, they would all feel desperate and lose their courage.

“Sir! Surrender!”

“We have done our best to defend until now!”

“I surrender! Surrender! Please don’t kill me!”

Some even ignored their comrades and superiors, directly dropped their weapons, raised their hands, and expressed their “determination” to surrender to the Space Wolves and Paratroopers.

In this battle with a huge gap in strength between the two sides, the former honor and faith were like a broken mirror, unable to reproduce the pride in their hearts, and despair surged like a tide, swallowing up all their courage.

In fact, the combat experience and combat quality of these government troops are far inferior to those of the Colonial Marines.

Almost all Marines have participated in actual combat or “Pest Control Operations”. Only a few airborne lieutenants who have been promoted based on their performance and background will make the absurd move of “the general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted”.

Such an environment has enabled the Marines to have solid combat capabilities and combat awareness, while the government troops are particularly vulnerable.

Moreover, the government troops of Earth “15” knew that they were stationed here and fought hard against the offensive of the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf, just to buy enough time and space for the politicians, generals and company representatives hiding behind them to escape.

In other words, they are already abandoned and have no value at all.

In the face of the cruel reality of the strong enemy, many soldiers instantly felt helpless and disappointed.

Why should they sacrifice their precious lives in vain for those big men who only care about their own interests?

It is this mentality that has led to the increasingly low morale of the battle, and many people have chosen to give up resistance, flee and surrender.

This is not only a reaction to the instinct of survival, but also a questioning of the significance of the entire battle.

If they knew in advance that the top leaders chose to reject Logan Sigurd’s persuasion to surrender for the sake of illusory dignity, they might feel that this offensive and defensive battle is meaningless, and so is their sacrifice.

In the context of the cyberpunk world, the loyalty of soldiers is usually linked to the salary and benefits provided by the employer.

In terms of loyalty, the security forces of giant companies such as Weyland Tangu are obviously more “unwavering” than the government army.

Therefore, when the government army collapsed completely, the security forces of major companies still held on to the front line, trying to resist the offensive of the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf.

However, no matter how loyal or fearless they were, they could not resist the pace of the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf.

Soon, the capital building was broken and occupied by the Hell Paratroopers and the Space Wolves.

The Pelican, Silver Gull and Luna-class transports also quickly deployed auxiliary troops, clone soldiers, T-800 Terminators and a large number of armored units into the city to further consolidate the control of the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf.

Those politicians, officers and company representatives who tried to escape from the earth by Cheyenne landing craft or space shuttle were intercepted and destroyed by the Deep Autumn class parked in low-Earth orbit.

The behavior of deserters and escapees is the most despised in the culture of the Space Wolves.

Logan was extremely disgusted with such behavior, especially the fact that these senior officials abandoned their soldiers and tried every means to escape, which completely aroused his anger.

And this action also gave him an opportunity to clean up the corrupt senior officials of the “One Five” human beings.

Since the other party destroyed themselves, Logan was naturally quite happy to clear them out.

At the same time, after assisting the Hell Paratroopers to deal with the air defense facilities on the ground, Logan quickly joined up with his brothers in the company guard and headed straight for the target location provided by the intelligent AI.

According to the precise intelligence of AI, those locations are the remaining high-level figures in the capital city.

Some politicians and business leaders who are afraid of death have chosen to hide in solid bunkers or suburban manors as soon as they received the news, hoping to escape with the help of concealed facilities.

However, after confirming that there are no innocent civilians around these targets, the Wild Wolf 14th Fleet will directly use orbital bombing to completely wipe out these greedy and cowardly high-level people in the fastest way.

As for the Predator?

Since Logan first fought with a Predator and killed him, the Wild Wolf 14th Company has come into contact with more than a dozen targets suspected to be Predators.

According to Logan’s instructions, the paratroopers, wild wolves and auxiliary troops first issued a warning to these alien creatures.

However, the other party did not attack as Logan expected after realizing that they were exposed, as if they were “angry and embarrassed”, or out of survival instinct.

On the contrary, they immediately chose to turn around and escape, trying to avoid further contact with the Wild Wolf 14th Company.

Logan was puzzled by the abnormal behavior of these alien creatures.

After careful thinking, he realized that the Iron Warrior who was killed by him earlier chose to use the plasma shoulder cannon because he made the Iron Warrior feel a great threat, so he wanted to seize the opportunity.

After all, even the most ordinary Astartes has an extremely terrifying aura.

However, the Iron Warrior obviously overestimated the gap between himself and Logan, and was killed instantly without any warning.

The other Iron Warriors wandering in the capital city may be observing the situation, showing no hostility towards humans, or they may have chosen to forbear and retreat after learning that their companions were easily defeated by Logan.

They did not take the initiative to attack the Wild Wolf 14th Company. This cautious attitude surprised Logan.

Regardless of the reason, the intelligent AI of the Wild Wolf Company has fully monitored the locations that have come into contact with the Iron Warriors, and combined with the monitoring system of the capital city, carefully investigated and searched for the whereabouts of the Iron Warriors.

The computing power of the intelligent AI is extremely powerful, enough to accurately lock onto the activities of the Predators, and even track their hidden gathering points and even the location of the mothership.

If the Predators can be captured or killed before they gather, it will undoubtedly bring more security and strategic initiative to the entire operation.

The body of the Predator that was killed instantly by Logan was successfully recovered by the technicians, and there were no accidents in the middle.

So far, the complete occupation of Earth 15 is only the prelude to the final victory for the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf.

Because in order to bring Earth 15 into the ruling system of the Empire, there are still “countless” steps to be carried out.

The first is to consolidate military control, that is, to ensure the safety of the occupied area, prevent the rise of resistance forces, and set up military outposts and patrols to maintain order.

The Space Wolves will successively send auxiliary troops, clones, and T-800s across the space gate, and take transport boats with jump engines to go directly to Earth 15 to assist the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf.

The second is to establish a political structure and set up a temporary or formal ruling body in the occupied area, which will be composed of officials appointed by the Empire and forces close to the Empire to ensure the continuity of administrative management.

Officials will be transferred from the main universe and other universes by the personnel department, and young people who have just graduated and need experience will also take up their posts together according to their files and resumes.

Another thing is to spread the Empire’s ideas and policies to the local people through various channels such as broadcasting, brochures, and social media, win the hearts of the people, and reduce resistance.

There is also economic integration, evaluating and reorganizing the local economy to ensure its integration into the Empire’s credit economic system, including taxation system, trade relations, and resource allocation.

The most important point is the construction of the legal system.

The 14th Company of the Wild Wolf will be directly responsible for introducing or formulating a legal system suitable for local conditions, ensuring the legitimacy and effectiveness of governance, and establishing a gradual connection with the Imperial legal system.

For example, cultural adaptation and integration, screening and recruiting new soldiers who meet the conditions of the Imperial Guard from the local area, establishing an evaluation and feedback agency, and managing relations with other colonies and even other ethnic forces will also be completed by the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf.

In other words, before the Emperor officially appointed a Primarch as the Governor, the highest authority in the Alien universe numbered “15” was Logan Sigurd, the captain of the 14th Company of the Wild Wolf.

However, according to this trend and past cases, the Alien universe will most likely be directly governed by the Space Wolves’ Primarch, Riemann.

After all, the Wolves did all the dirty work, the hard work, and even the blame for the Empire. If the Alien universe is not handed over to them, Logan, Riemann, and all the Space Wolves will be dissatisfied.

As the Emperor, Sui Yang would naturally not make arrangements that would disappoint his sons and “grandsons”.

Now, the integration of the Alien universe has come to an end.

And Leon, Maggie, and others in the Star Fleet (14) universe have also successfully “snatched away” tens of thousands of federal soldiers.
