Chapter 247 The End of the Battle of the Landing Port

boom!

Under the leaden sky, lightning flashed through the thick clouds.

The flash of light disappeared after illuminating the earth for a moment, and the rain stained black by dust changed from a patter to a heavy rain, and finally formed a thick curtain in the field of vision.

This rainfall, which symbolizes the arrival of the rainy season in the continental plates of the planet, is more than a month earlier than usual;

It benefits from the influence of ships in orbit on gravitational tides, and is also controlled by the mechanical arks in the sky that are good at manipulating the atmosphere.

Yes, the heavy rain itself is also a tactical-level weapon for the empire.

After initially establishing a landing site and defeating the first wave of Orcs, the Empire's tactical goal on this planet is to destroy as much of the effective forces and anti-aircraft firepower here as possible to clear the way for the Empire's offensive into the galaxy. risk.

The Psychic Titan had been recovered in time after completing its initial mission. Next to provide support to the land forces in the atmosphere was a temporary strike group composed of six Titans.

They would follow in the footsteps of the Astra Militarum and the Gray Knights and wipe out the main force of the Orks on the planet.

This is enough, especially in the context of the orc army's collapse.

Beneath the rough and powerful appearance of this species, its reliance on psychic energy and group will exceeds human expectations.

Whether it's the WarBoss that was defeated by the Sisters of Silence with their own lives in Beast Wars, or the green energy that was crushed head-on by Calvin here.

These gestalts that represent the collective consciousness of them are too important to them, but they have no formal protection.

This is undoubtedly an extremely obvious loophole and shortcoming.

Once this shortcoming is targeted by the enemy, these orcs who have lost their spiritual support can only be knocked down to earth again and become a low-activity race within the scope of scientific understanding.

This low activity is determined by their spore-like biological instinct:

Their basic energy conversion method is low-level photosynthesis among all carbon-based organisms.

This choice naturally has its trade-offs, and its advantages are adaptation and tolerance to the environment, as well as the terrifying reproductive ability brought about by this tolerance;

What about the disadvantages? Without the intervention of external forces such as psychic energy, their energy supply system would simply not be able to support the brain energy needs of an intelligent race!

what is this?

A half-finished product that was rushed into production?

After Calvin left the battlefield, he had been reflecting on this too easy victory.

He saw too much utilitarianism and purpose from the orc race;

This also makes it clear why the Emperor still did not take it seriously after experiencing the Battle of Ullanor:

Without him, this is already the pinnacle of their race.

Too low energy conversion threshold brings too fast expansion speed;

But the low energy conversion threshold also requires their race to have tens of millions of times more people than other races when trying to advance into a truly complete form!

This is almost impossible!

The territory of a huge orc empire is just enough for them to complete the construction of basic reason and system.

How many people are needed to bring the entire race into the psychic stage?

How many new people are needed for those populations?

You are just playing P/scam here!

Calvin laughed out loud when he thought of this. At this time, he clearly felt the malice of those beings who created the orcs.

This is an artificial race that is used as a low-level war tool. It is essentially no different from the fighting partners that humans deliberately cultivated from wolves during their nomadic stage.

Their upper limit has long been secretly determined. Even today, when their master has long since disappeared, they still cannot break free from the shackles engraved in their genes.

While Calvin was amused, he was even more in awe of those beings who had created orcs:

Psychic energy is truly a magical power;

The technology of psychic energy and the ascension of the entire race are really worthy of the empire’s efforts...

The battle on this planet is still going on, but from the perspective of the headquarters, the strategic purpose of opening an entrance for the follow-up troops has actually been achieved.

Subsequent fleets and supplies are constantly pouring in, and massive supplies are supporting and consolidating the control of the portals on both sides of the battlefield at all times.

When the strike cruisers of the Astartes here escaped from the planetary battlefield and gradually began to join the frontal galaxy naval battle, the destruction of the Ork fleet inevitably entered a countdown state.

The orcs, with their unprecedented strength, can still cause huge casualties to humans, but they are no longer helpful to the overall situation.

Just like the shackles in their bones:

Fixed battleship structure leads to lack of tactics;

And fixed tactics itself is a fatal flaw.

Once they are deliberately targeted by enemies of the same level, the only thing waiting for them is destruction.

In fact, the specific situation of naval battles is indeed the same:

The heavy armor on the bows of their battleships was ignored. The Imperial fleet, which had the initiative, relied on the stability of its engines to keep a sufficient distance from them, and then turned around and slowly attacked their fragile waists.

Except for the heavy casualties when fighting for space in the initial stage of the Grand Fleet, which cost the two cruisers paralysis, there were no seriously injured main warships.

The large number of Astartes stationed on the ship makes the fleet fearless of small Ork landing ships;

Once these small ships are ignored, in the artillery battle between large warships, the empire's firepower comparison against the orcs will be an overwhelming advantage without any objection.

This is the foundation of the Empire, and it is also the greatest confidence that the Empire has as the dominant race in the galaxy today.

As the famous saying goes: both humans and dogs are showing off, only the empire is being beaten.

Perhaps in the eyes of some people, whether it is aliens or chaos in the entire universe, they are threatening the safety of the empire at all times;

And indeed, under the threat of these enemies, the empire often lost the protection of its citizens and the control of precious territory;

But please don’t forget or ignore:

Being able to play a supporting role in these famous scenes for a long time, doesn't it mean that the Milky Way at this time is dominated by humans?

And every time after the empire became serious, which of the races that posed a threat to the empire did not return in despair?

Calvin withdrew his thoughts from the trivial thoughts and looked at the entire battle situation again, and was pleased to discover:

The battle to recapture the Hassan sector in the direction of Orps can be considered a smooth journey so far;

Among them, the battle for the Pustelei system, which is the most dangerous, has also passed the most difficult landing stage.
