Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge - Chapter 444

c444 A Disorganized Group

“Da Da!”

The sound of gunfire like tearing cloth suddenly resounded through the world.

The fiery red bullet marks turned into fire dragons that swept towards the charging orc motorcycles.

“Swish!”

Wherever they passed, the green-skinned orcs and their vehicles were shattered.

The Astra Militarum soldiers behind the Leman Russ tanks also began to cover the shooting.

The laser rifles in their hands shot out red beams.

The vehicle-mounted weapons of the accompanying armored vehicles also began to spit out flames.

The dense metal storm caused heavy losses to the orc motorcycle gang.

They were about to rush into the Astra Militarum’s line, but were destroyed one by one.

“Immediately destroy the enemy’s artillery positions, quickly!”

On the top of the sand dune, Pine had been observing the battlefield situation.

On the battlefield, the two sides were already exchanging fire.

The bullet marks of the fire marks danced wildly, and the rumbling explosions sounded.

Only the long-range artillery of the orcs could cause damage to the army.

The power is extremely great, no less than that of the basilisk.

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 will rise in the line of the Star Army.

With Pine’s order, the basilisk self-propelled artillery position stopped firing.

The long gun barrel was slightly lowered, locking the artillery position of the green-skinned orcs.

“Fire, fire!”

With the roar of the flag bearer.

Hundreds of basilisk self-propelled artillery roared.

The muzzle shook violently, spewing out a long tongue of fire.

A few seconds later, in the oasis.

A large area of ​​fire flickered, and flaming mushroom clouds rose up.

The huge power lifted a large amount of vegetation, and some metal debris could be seen in it.

One bombardment completely silenced the orc artillery position in the oasis.

“All regiments stop advancing, fight and retreat, focus on attacking and defending, and avoid close combat with the enemy.”

At this time, on the battlefield, the Orc army was less than five miles away from the Astra Militarum line.

Paine ordered all regiments to stop charging.

With Paine’s order, on the battlefield, the Astra Militarum regiments that were covering each other’s advance suddenly stopped advancing.

The advancing Leman Russ tanks began to retreat.

And behind the sand dunes, the petrified lizard self-propelled artillery roared again.

The rumbling sound of artillery resounded through the world.

A few seconds later, a cloud of flaming mushrooms suddenly rose in the Orc army.

The shining flames, the surging flames, and the shock waves swept everything around.

A large number of hideous green-skinned orcs were engulfed by the flames, their bodies were torn apart, and they were blown away by the shock waves.

Faced with the bombing, the green-skinned orcs also responded.

There is a very strange unit in the Orc army.

Similar to mecha, with orc appearance and structure.

Nearly five meters high, walking on two feet.

They stopped, and their bloated bodies slightly raised.

The diameter of the fire flashed, and the whistling sound of “woohoo” resounded through the world.

From the weapons in their hands similar to rocket nests, a series of twisted and flying missiles were fired.

Just like the flowers scattered by the goddess, the dense missiles flew twistedly in the sky and rushed into the line of the Star Army.

“Boom!”

There were intensive explosions in the line of the Star Army.

The missiles seemed small, but they were amazingly powerful.

Only the Leman Russ tank could withstand a blow.

Once the armored vehicles behind were hit, they would be destroyed.

Those big guys also became the focus of the Leman Russ tanks.

For a while, the battlefield was rumbling with artillery fire, and the two sides came and went.

“Don’t the green orcs have flying units?”

Paine has been paying attention to the movements in the oasis.

If the Orks only had the few troops on the battlefield, the winner would only be the Astra Militarum.

Although the Green Ork army began to be dense and overwhelming.

But its number would not exceed 10,000.

It’s just that they are relatively scattered and chaotic.

Their charge is extremely fierce, which gives people an illusion of endlessness.

Compared with before the battle, the number of Green Orks has been greatly reduced.

In such an open place, both sides are targets.

It’s just that the Astra Militarum has Leman Russ tanks, an extension of armored vehicles.

But the Green Orks don’t have this condition.

They are directly exposed to the Astra Militarum’s firepower network.

Although they are armored, they will be quickly penetrated by the continuous shooting of the laser rifles in the hands of the Astra Militarum.

Pine has always been worried that the Orks will have air units.

Although there are dozens of Hydra anti-aircraft tanks in his army.

But with the mobility of air units, before being shot down, they are enough to cause heavy casualties to the soldiers.

Although he also had the right to call for air force support.

But at this time he was too far away from the front-line base.

Even if there were air forces patrolling nearby, it would take time to get there.

In terms of the speed of arriving at the battlefield, it is naturally not comparable to the defending Orks.

However, it turned out that Payne’s worries were unnecessary.

The oasis he attacked was just a small tribe of Orks.

The battle lasted for more than one or two hours. Until the last green-skinned orc fell, no orc air units appeared.

Shatuo Star, orbit over the North Pole.

Imperial Fleet, flagship.

“The initial battle went smoothly. The Astra Militarum has already attacked near the equator and is advancing westward and eastward. In order to better cooperate with the ground forces in combat, the front-line base is divided into two. Wherever the main force attacks, the front-line base will be built. With the main force leading the way, the airspace behind is safe. As long as the transport ship flies at low altitude, there is no need to worry about being locked by the green-skinned orcs’ missiles.”

To put it bluntly, the front-line base of the Astra Militarum is the berthing place of the Storm-class transport ship.

The Storm-class transport ship was designed with the needs of fighting in the atmosphere in mind.

Therefore, it is equipped with an anti-gravity device and has the ability to fly in the atmosphere.

The Storm-class transport ship is not small, it is a big guy with a length of two kilometers.

Therefore, there is a great demand for the strength of the hull structure.

It is also because of this that the cost of the Storm-class transport ship is very high.

It is almost equivalent to a Cobra destroyer.

In order to reduce the weight of the transport ship, the Storm-class transport ship does not have too thick armor.

It can be said to be a real thin skin and big filling.

It has been half a month since the expeditionary fleet arrived at Shatuo Star.

The ground battle situation is very smooth.

Although there are many green-skinned orcs on Shatuo Star.

But they are scattered in various oases.

Maybe the orc expeditionary fleet took most of the orcs away.

As a result, the scale of the green-skinned orcs on Shatuo Star is relatively limited.

Although the green-skinned orcs breed very quickly.

But in just a few years, they cannot recover to their heyday.

Wherever the ground forces go, they can be said to be crushing and have not encountered strong resistance.

Listening to Maren’s report, Li Meng looked thoughtful.

“Are the Orks gathering?”

Maren, standing nearby, shook his head and said, “No gathering has been found yet. The desert has effectively cut off their connection.”
