Chapter 217 Failed Counterattack
The densely packed coalition of nobles surged like a tide. Amidst the fierce artillery fire and billowing smoke, they bravely advanced, desperately rushing towards the second line of defense.
On this battlefield filled with death and destruction, every step was accompanied by endless pain and sacrifice. The noble coalition army left behind cold corpses along their path, as if telling the world the cruelty of war.
Before the noble coalition forces even saw the defense soldiers in person, they had already suffered huge losses.
If it weren't for the brave and fearless governor who led the charge, these people would have collapsed and fled in all directions long ago.
However, the courage and determination of the Governor-General enabled the army to advance firmly and continue to counterattack the second line of defense.
"Boom!"
A series of deafening explosions rang out among the charging noble coalition forces. One self-propelled artillery piece after another was relentlessly bombarded by siege shells.
It instantly transformed into a blazing fireball, and a devastating explosion occurred. Flames shot up into the sky, black smoke billowed, and the entire battlefield fell into chaos.
"Charge, we are about to approach the heretic's defense position!" The governor ran hard and shouted loudly to boost morale.
The explosions of self-propelled artillery and tanks behind him pierced his heart. These were the strengths he had painstakingly accumulated, yet he had never expected them to be so easily shattered by the fierce attacks of the heretics.
Faced with such a difficult situation, the governor had no choice but to roar as loudly as he could to boost morale and lead everyone to continue moving forward.
The only way to survive is to continue charging forward. Retreating is not the governor's choice.
The commander of the defense corps watched the noble coalition army shown on the radar, getting closer and closer to the second line of defense, and immediately gave an order in a deep voice on the communication channel:
"The third and fifth companies will attack the left wing, and the ninth and tenth companies will attack the right wing. Surround and eliminate these pseudo-emperor's lackeys. Don't let any of them escape."
Since the noble coalition was getting closer and closer to the second line of defense, the commander of the defense army decided to send out four companies to encircle and destroy the noble coalition from both wings, and wipe out the resistance forces on this planet in one fell swoop.
"Yes, Captain."
The four company commanders quickly responded to the regiment commander's arrangements on the communication channel, and led the soldiers on both wings of the second line of defense to encircle the noble coalition forces.
In the second line of defense, the defense forces facing the attacking noble coalition forces continued to remain motionless.
"Be prepared for battle. The enemy is about to show up. When they do, strike hard and wipe out all of these pseudo-emperor's lackeys."
Ebony, lying in a trench, gave orders to his comrades in the combat team in a deep voice.
"Team Leader Ebony, we will definitely not let you down."
"Team Leader Ebony, don't you still believe in our fighting ability?"
The other soldiers responded to Ebony's words with smiles, their faces filled with confidence and composure, as if the upcoming battle was just an ordinary training exercise.
For these battle-hardened soldiers, fighting a defensive battle is much easier than an offensive battle. They have long been accustomed to this combat mode and are full of confidence in it.
"Of course I believe in your ability, I just want to remind you to be careful." Ebony responded calmly.
In this combat team, the combat robots also placed their heavy ripper rifles firmly in the trenches.
These powerful weapons have an extremely high rate of fire and power. As long as the combat robots can withstand the recoil caused by continuous shooting, they can cause huge damage to the enemy like a heavy machine gun, and madly harvest enemies who face the heavy ripper rifle.
Not long after, images of soldiers from the Noble Alliance appeared in the power helmets of Ebony and the others, rushing out from behind various buildings.
They surged forward like a tide, their momentum so fierce that it shocked everyone. However, Wu Mu and the others were not intimidated by this momentum. Their eyes were firm and calm, staring intently at the scene before them.
The moment he saw the figures of the noble coalition soldiers, Wu Mu gave the order without hesitation:
"Shoot! Hit hard!"
"Da da da"
Fierce gunfire began to rang out in this position.
Immediately afterwards, a burst of dense gunfire rang out from the second line of defense. Dense bullets poured out like raindrops, firing fiercely at the rushing soldiers of the noble coalition.
The Apocalypse tanks in the rear also quickly turned their guns, aimed at the rushing noble coalition forces, and began bombing without hesitation.
"Rumble"
The huge roar was deafening, as if the entire earth was shaking. The shells poured down like raindrops, carrying the power of destruction, setting off a sea of fire in the noble coalition army and sending bricks and rubble flying all over the sky.
"Da da da"
The dense gunfire from the defense soldiers intertwined into a song of death. Bullets whizzed past, mercilessly penetrating the bodies of the noble coalition, bringing endless pain and death.
For a moment, the battlefield was filled with smoke, flames shot up into the sky, and the sound of gunfire and artillery fire came one after another, like the screams of the god of death, launching a brutal massacre at the rushing noble coalition forces.
The noble coalition forces that rushed over fell down in rows, their corpses piled up like a mountain, and their blood dyed the ground red.
The scene was like an old farmer calmly harvesting the ripe wheat in the fields, while the soldiers of the defense army were like cold-blooded butchers, easily killing the enemies one by one.
"Charge! For the great Divine Emperor!"
The Governor brandished his power sword and roared as he continued to charge forward. His eyes burned with a mad fire, filled with a desire for victory and to destroy all enemies of the Emperor.
Inspired by the governor, the coalition of nobles behind them seemed to have forgotten their fear. They no longer looked at their fallen comrades, but charged forward desperately.
They have only one belief in their hearts: for the great Divine Emperor and for the empire, they must fight to the end!
"Kill the guy in power armor who's yelling!"
Ebony looked at the Governor in the crowd of noble coalition forces and was immediately attracted by him. He fired several bullets at the Governor with the light Ripper rifle in his hand, but they were all blocked by the guards around him.
Suddenly, Sifu shouted to the soldier holding the blaster nearby. Since ordinary rifles couldn't kill the enemy, they should use the blaster to bombard them directly. Wumu didn't believe the enemy could survive the blaster's attack.
