Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 324
324. Chapter 323, All resistance has since collapsed
This was the second time that Therese saw the Phoenix angels, armed with guns, wearing sharp blades, forming an array, and marching forward.
But the shock she felt was no different from the first time.
The Phoenixes in heavy armor were really like red giants. The tall and majestic figures of each of them conveyed their iron will to the people around them. And their uniform movements combined the majestic postures of individual warriors together, revealing a more surging killing intent.
Therese even held her breath involuntarily, until she was almost unable to breathe, and then she suddenly took a big breath.
This sense of oppression was really too shocking.
“Focus more.” A gentle voice sounded next to her.
Therese turned her head and saw another red-armored warrior.
Although he did not take off his helmet, Therese could still feel that this psychic among the Space Marines, Henrik Larsen, was smiling at her.
She nodded slightly: “Sorry.”
“No need to apologize, just wait for the news of our victory.”
As the two were talking, the last “dong” sound of footsteps came, and all the Space Marines stood still.
Martins walked in the front and said to her: “We have made all the preparations.”
“Okay.” Therese nodded slightly, and the power of psychic energy began to surge from her body.
Then, all the other psychics, including Henrik Larsen, did the same.
The huge amount of psychic energy gathered on Therese’s body, and then through her, it was introduced into the psychic array in front of them.
Every blue thread on the array began to light up. A moment later, above the array, the space began to shake violently.
“You can enter!”
Henrik Larsen sent a message, and the commander of the Martins took the lead in stepping into the array, and all the other warriors quickly followed.
Larsen did the same. He stood beside Martins, and the surging psychic power connected every battle brother to each other.
After a moment, all the Space Marines disappeared in an instant, leaving behind more than 20 psychics who seemed to have been drained of energy, lying on the ground, gasping for breath.
According to what they learned in the Mage Academy, this is a state of psychic overdraft, which is of course not good for the body and mind, but as long as it does not happen too frequently, only occasionally, and if you can get enough rest to recover afterwards, there will be no problems or hidden dangers.
Therese is in a relatively good state among all the people. Although she is the host of this psychic transmission, she also has the highest psychic strength among all the people. In the “grade test” of the Psychic Order, her psychic strength was rated C-level, which is the same level as the current president of the Pegasus Star Region Psychic Order, Wang Yuyang.
She was pale and panting slightly, but her eyes were looking far away outside the fortress palace.
It was too far away, and she couldn’t see clearly, but she knew that the Space Marines had arrived in the outer city area that was used as a military camp and position.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will face the enemy’s most powerful armed force – the Knight Titan.
Deris didn’t worry too much, she felt that the Space Marines would never lose.
…
At the moment of completing the transmission, the Space Marines did need to face the enemy’s most powerful armed force, the Knight Titan. This is absolutely true and is actually happening.
But this kind of confrontation must be what the Knight Titan doesn’t want to see.
It’s too sudden, and it’s too hard to guard against.
The Knight Titan needs a driver, and in the social environment of Black Arrow Star, the Knight Titans are all nobles, and they don’t stay in the uncomfortable and closed cockpit all the time. When they don’t need to fight, they will of course rest in the outside world.
For example, now.
Of course, as the most powerful weapon and an extremely expensive war asset, the Stefanos pay great attention to the protection of their Knight Titan. There are a large number of soldiers stationed around, and more than ten mecha sentinels are on guard. In the place where the Knight Titans were usually placed, they were also placed in permanent semi-underground fortifications, which could not only prevent sudden artillery and air strikes, but also strictly prevent lurking entry.
However, what the Stefano people could never have imagined was that forty red-armored giants suddenly appeared right under their noses, in the air where there was nothing a moment ago! Stunned
, the guards even forgot to shoot.
Of course, even if they fired, it would be meaningless.
After the Space Marines landed, the division of labor was very clear. Ten people in a group began to charge towards the only two Knight Titans of the Stefano Kingdom Army.
The other twenty people began to clear the surrounding enemies in an orderly manner. The primary target was the sentinel mechas. Only the machine guns equipped on these sentinel mechas could cause damage to the power armor at the current combat distance.
But this is really not difficult.
There were only ten Sentinel mechas, and they were attacked by surprise. The other soldiers could hardly help. In this case, what else could be said?
They hadn’t reacted yet. In an instant, each of them was “sprayed” with more than 20 armor-piercing bombs.
The whole army was annihilated.
Then, the sound of melta bombs exploding came from the two fortifications where the Knight Titans were stored.
There is no doubt that the Knight Titans without a driver and without activated energy shields were completely destroyed after four or five melta bombs were installed on the top and bottom and detonated together. There was no possibility of repair.
The mission of the Phoenix Regiment was successfully completed.
The whole process took no more than six minutes.
Martins’s expression did not contain any smugness or similar meaning.
It was just a basic operation.
Teleporting psychically, directly to the enemy’s face, and then killing them all with a knife, how difficult is this?
Not at all.
The slightly difficult thing is how to withdraw safely and unscathed.
After all, they were now trapped in enemy territory.
Surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Kingdom troops.
Don’t say they were Space Marines, and they were invincible in power armor.
That was not the case.
According to Martins’ past experience, if they make mistakes or are careless in their next actions, they may still pay a price.
Heavy artillery, excessive bullet strikes, bombs… these things may threaten them.
But the good news is that the enemy’s deployment here has been completely destroyed.
Under the surprise attack, there was a huge loss all of a sudden, even the Knight Titan was destroyed, and those ordinary warriors had no intention of fighting in the chaos.
They withdrew without any obstacles and followed the previously planned road all the way to the defense line of the palace fortress.
After walking more than 20 kilometers and crossing the outer city, they successfully escaped.
Before this, they had a full plan, and the roads they chose all the way were as narrow as possible, which was not conducive to the deployment of heavy firepower.
And their enemies obviously lacked defense against the enemy from behind, lacked the preparation to set up checkpoints, and lacked the will to fight, and were easily broken by a stab.
The Space Marines seemed to be strolling in the outer city, and there was almost no effective obstruction.
Moreover, they had an extra gain.
During the retreat, a team found an unusual deployment of troops around a building, and it seemed that there were big men in it.
The building was on the evacuation route of the troops.
Anyway, it was on the way, so they tried to attack the place.
The attack was of course successful, and the result was that they found the enemy’s headquarters inside. An old general led the way, along with many generals of the Stefano Kingdom Army, and was blocked inside.
Several sentinel mechas closely guarded beside them, covering them as they boarded several military vehicles and tried to leave.
However, the grenade launchers blew up all the military vehicles.
The enemy suddenly panicked, and the Space Marines did not fight and left.
…
The Space Marines’ actions were not alone.
Two hours before they performed the psychic transmission, the Alliance army occupying the central court, under the instruction of Martins, began to attack the outside with multiple points, comprehensive and strong firepower.
It was not to capture any important targets, but to attract the enemy’s attention and create opportunities for the Space Marines.
At the same time, there was an entire special operations battalion that directly followed the evacuation route of the Space Marines and attacked outward, with the goal of supporting the Phoenixes.
Although the Phoenixes would definitely be able to successfully withdraw without these preparations, they still had to take precautions when making plans.
The Space Marines who successfully withdrew achieved a brilliant result in this raid.
The 200,000 Stefano troops stationed in the outer city fell into a state of paralysis and even loss of control in an instant.
The main war weapons were gone, and the command brain that had just shown some signs of recovery was removed. Many soldiers witnessed the Emperor’s angels killing through the entire city with an invincible attitude. Everyone in front of them was like an ant and was easily killed. This made them lose the belief in victory. The
top-down organization collapsed, and the morale of ordinary soldiers collapsed. The chain reaction caused by all this made the middle and lower-level officers unable to control their subordinates at all – a considerable number of them did not want to control them, and they themselves collapsed.
The army seemed to be there, but it seemed to be gone.
A large number of deserters began to appear among the soldiers, and those who did not escape were also panicked and at a loss. There were even many vicious incidents in the city. Soldiers began to rob residents, kill people and set fires.
But all this ended the next day.
The main army of the alliance came.
The 13th Armored Brigade and the 60th Armored Brigade, which belonged to the Alliance Central Army Group, came in coordination.
Although there were only about 20,000 people, when 200 self-propelled truck guns blasted the main gate of Stefano, and then thousands of armored vehicles and more than 100 Lion tanks drove into the city; when the special warfare elites and soldiers of the 31st Airborne Division in the central palace area began to rush out of the palace and cooperate with the armored forces outside to attack Stefano soldiers from both sides…
all resistance collapsed.
The army of the alliance gained control of the entire city without dispute.
After a brief discussion, the political commissars of the two armored brigades made a series of aftermath policies.
The whole city was put under martial law, but several points for collecting daily necessities were opened to ensure basic humanitarian relief. Some surrendered officials in Stefano’s royal city were even temporarily mobilized to assist in this matter.
Nearly 200,000 people became prisoners of war. The Alliance quickly screened them. Most of them were fine. A few who committed crimes before the Alliance took control of the whole city were picked out, publicly tried, and executed on the spot.
Everything was strictly enforced.
These strategies were quick and effective, and this feudal city with a population of two million people calmed down.
…
“I want to see Governor Gu.” Ipsi said.
Standing opposite him was Martins.
The war captain didn’t say much, just nodded slightly.
So, the ‘Iron Curtain Queen’ Ipsi got on the Wind Falcon fighter plane to Pinser City.
On the plane, Ipsi, who was no longer young, seemed to have regained the feeling when she was seventeen years old and just ascended the throne.
Tension, panic, and confusion… These things are the biggest, even bigger than at that time.
In contrast, the firmness, persistence, forbearance, and decisiveness she had in her heart at the beginning were now so weak.
She didn’t think she had become weak, but the two situations were completely inconsistent.
If it was a battle for her throne back then, now it was a battle for the destruction of the country.
And it was a battle for the destruction of the country that had already been lost.
During the time she was captured, she was not supervised too much, so in the little freedom she had, she saw with her own eyes how her brave knights and soldiers died one after another but meaninglessly; she also saw with her own eyes how the 200,000 troops outside the city, which she had placed great hopes on and could at least rely on the solid royal city to resist the alliance army for more than a month, completely collapsed in just two or three days.
Although the Kingdom of Stefano still had a million troops in the remaining territory, what was the point?
She had fully realized that they had actually lost the war that determined the fate of the kingdom.
Stefano had already been destroyed.
But she is the king of Stefano, and she has to make one last effort for the survival of Stefano’s kingdom.
