Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 448

Chapter 447, Renegade Space Marines

the idea of the rebellious space warrior Gu Hang is very reasonable: he knew that a greenskin reinforcement would arrive, so of course he had to try to defeat the enemy in front of him before the reinforcement came.

Even if it would cost some money.

If he doesn’t do it now, it will be more difficult after they meet up.

It is unrealistic to want to decide the outcome so quickly on the ground battlefield of Temir 5. There are billions of greenskins, and even pigs can’t be killed so quickly.

The previous battle that Perbov won, of course, successfully disrupted the greenskin defense line in an entire direction, causing the greenskins of the entire planet to fall into chaos because of the loss of their supreme commander. Taking this opportunity, he commanded his troops well and fought several annihilation and destruction battles.

Moreover, the human army launched a wave of offensive climaxes across the entire planet and the entire continent. On the battle line spanning thousands of miles, with the Alliance Army as the core and the Allied Forces as the auxiliary, they attacked on all fronts. Often, a breakthrough point is made, which provokes a counterattack by the greenskins, and then the two sides are empty and surrounded by humans after being broken through, and then they eat dumplings.

Or a garbage city is raided by the elite soldiers of the human alliance. Because the orcs are not subordinate to each other, the command is chaotic, and the support is not in time, there are a lot of fart spirits in the garbage city. Then they can’t get any advantage under the hands of the human elite and are quickly eliminated. The large number of personnel losses is secondary, mainly because of the loss of the production capacity of the garbage city and a considerable number of greenskin weapons that have not been shipped out.

Similar situations have repeatedly appeared on the entire planet.

In total, more than 200 million greenskins were eliminated in the two months after the end of the battle. Among them, at least 50 million real greenskin orcs were killed.

The greenskin forces on the surface of Temir 5 have shrunk directly.

In order to kill these 200 million greenskins, humans have lost more than 30 million – most of them are the Allied forces, and the Alliance Army probably lost more than 10 million.

The battle loss ratio is still pretty good. Even if the fart spirits are removed and not counted as humans, it is still 3:5, which is okay.

What’s more, the fart spirits are not really not human. The logistical support they provide to the greenskin army is an important guarantee for the greenskin army to continue the war, and they are also suitable for long-range fire strikes.

However, the situation on Temir 5 has slowed down recently.

After two months of fierce attacks, the human army is a little tired. Soldiers who need to rest should take turns to rest, and the supplies that should be replenished should be in place. Those occupied places should be “sterilized”, otherwise new greenskins will grow back and it will take manpower to guard them.

In addition, the orc leader Saru also sent a new warlord to land on the surface. The greenskin command system began to recover and was no longer so chaotic. It became less easy to get the greenskins’ lives as easily as before.

Both sides are licking their wounds.

And the battle in space is still pulling. No one wants to fight a decisive battle, and no one wants the other side to easily support the ground. Isn’t that the case?

Gu Hang will not let Du Shiliang go to fight with those greenskin fleets now.

The chance of winning is not high enough.

What’s the point of fighting a 50-50 war?

And it just so happened that Ye Lixia’s patrol mission in the Seven Horses had ended, and all the worlds had signed the Seven Horses Agreement.

Although it would be best to let half of the joint fleet continue to patrol for a while, after all, some “vassals” still have a strong tendency to secede.

But looking at the current situation, it is not appropriate.

Ye Lixia must take half of the joint fleet to the Temir system as soon as possible, and pick up Gu Hang halfway to meet up with Du Shiliang, and try to destroy or at least severely damage the greenskin fleet before the greenskin reinforcements arrive.

However, when Gu Hang was about to give Ye Lixia an order to start with the fleet, the female general took the lead and sent a message.

Something happened in the Iron Horse Star Region.

Xiaxing I System is a system in the Iron Horse Star Region with three habitable planets. When paying the imperial tax before, the other two were fine, but there was a problem on Xiaxing I3.

In this post-colonial planet with a population of 800 million, the separatist forces are quite fierce. They have already started a clear rebellion and looted the imperial taxes prepared by the planet.

The total tax revenue of the entire planet is only 80 million, and they only looted about 20 million in supplies.

But the nature of this matter is very bad, so it must be solved.

The local troops reorganized into the Allied Forces are already suppressing the rebellion, but the Alliance cannot do nothing. The Seven Horses Agreement has been signed, how can you just take money and do nothing?

Coincidentally, Ye Lishia was also nearby.

The Alliance’s agents first went down to investigate the situation, and then they called for reinforcements, saying that they had found the location of the rebel leader and applied for direct military elimination.

The way to eliminate them is that several frigates sent by Ye Lishia will send a few missiles to bomb the reported coordinates. Then, the Marines, led by a team of Phoenixes, landed on the ground.

They have to eliminate the enemy’s leaders, destroy the command center, and then evacuate.

These tasks should be considered familiar to the Phoenixes.

Logically, such physical specifications should be able to solve the problem, but an accident happened.

The Phoenix and the Marines they led were all fine after landing, but suddenly they all lost contact at a certain moment.

It was very unusual.

If it was just the Marines, it would be fine, but there was a whole squad of Phoenixes leading the team.

Even if the battle was fierce and the mission was difficult, they were Space Marines, how could they lose contact without saying a word?

Then, the commander on the starship received information from the landed agent.

They said that the Phoenix and the Marines had an accident, and the rebels had the ability to interfere with information, which made it impossible for the task force trapped in the enemy camp to contact the upper level. The task force is now surrounded by the superior forces of the rebels, and more reinforcements need to be sent to the ground.

The commander on the starship had some concerns, but after repeated consideration, he still sent new reinforcements.

The missiles bombarded the enemy’s assembly position again, and then another team of Phoenixes led the elite Marines to the ground.

This time, their goal was not even to eliminate the enemy leader or strike the rebel center, but just to cover the troops that had gone down earlier and evacuate via transport planes.

However, the support results this time were still not ideal, and the team that went down soon lost contact.

This time, the situation became serious.

The ground agent reported the ground situation again and requested reinforcements. However, the commander, who had already had some doubts in the last round, would not be fooled for the third time.

On the one hand, he stabilized the ground agents, and on the other hand, he contacted the superior unit of that group of agents and reported the situation.

Then, a new group of agents went down and quickly came to a conclusion: the group that went down before had rebelled. The two waves of elite troops that went down earlier were probably in danger now.

The commander on the starship was furious.

But at the same time, he was also a little confused.

Agents rebelled… was it so easy to rebel? How could a group of local rebels on a planet make the agents trained by the three major intelligence agencies of the Alliance rebel?

And even if they rebelled and tricked the elite of the Alliance to land, the two waves of twenty or thirty Phoenixes and thousands of Marines would not be easy to eliminate?

Even if their own numbers were small and they lacked heavy equipment, they could not fight and would be surrounded, but how could they be wiped out so quickly?

The commander above no longer considered the possibility that the troops that went down were still alive and their communications were just interfered.

It was very low.

Those rebellious agents continued to spread false intelligence, with the goal of tricking more Phoenixes and more human troops to go down. They were not worried about making things worse, and their attitude was more like “I’ll take as many as you want.”

Are these rebels so strong?

But in any case, it is time to give up the idea of scalpel strikes and quick solutions.

The commander called for more reinforcements, and soon there were more than just a few frigates on the Xiaxing I system.

More ships arrived here and dropped a large number of troops.

The 3rd Army, the 17th Army Group of the Alliance Army, was deployed on the surface of the planet Xiaxing I-3.

The scale of the rebellion set off by the separatists on Xiaxing I-3 is not small. The five provinces on the planet were swept in, and the population in the actual controlled area reached 50 million, and the number of rebels was about 3 million.

They fought back and forth against the 5 million-strong Allied Army.

Under such circumstances, an Alliance army of one million, plus super-standard orbital firepower support, is definitely not something the rebels can resist.

If there is anything super-standard among the rebels, it can naturally be forced out.

This is indeed the case.

Under high pressure, the core force of the separatists appeared: groups of Space Marines.

Space Marines? !

When the commander of the Alliance in orbit received this information uploaded by the ground forces, his eyes almost popped out!

How could it be possible?

Why would there be Space Marines among the separatist forces of a group of indigenous planets? How could they get the help of Space Marines? !

Could it be that everyone is Governor Gu?

In previous wars, the Alliance relied on the Phoenix to make others stunned, at a loss, and completely at a loss as to what to do.

And now, the same situation has happened to the Alliance itself.

But then, they soon realized that the Space Marines who helped the separatist forces on the Xiaxing I-3 planet were by no means normal Space Marines.

They did not have the symbol of the Imperial Skyhawk, nor those medals that boasted of honor.

Are these traitors among the Space Marines?

Things are serious.

The relevant information was quickly sent back. At the same time, the warships in the planetary orbit were also preparing to step up fire support.

What’s wrong with the Space Marines? In the absence of orbital control, no matter how powerful the Space Marines are, they have to be bombed honestly on the surface.

However, the commander of the joint fleet was soon slapped in the face.

Do those rebellious space marines really have no means to threaten the orbit?

Indeed, they do not. The starport of Xiaxing I-3 is an old and dilapidated place. There are only a few anti-orbital guns on the ground. There are no star fortresses on the orbit. There are only

a few armed space stations, which can only guard against small pirates. There are now more than ten frigates and destroyers on the orbit, and at least twenty patrol ships. There is no ability to deal with it.

But… who said that this group of rebellious space marines who came out of nowhere can only exert their strength from the surface?

When the ships of the joint fleet were happily bombing in orbit, the stargazers on the ship soon made a horrifying discovery: they noticed that a huge, unidentified starship suddenly appeared in the galaxy!

This starship seemed to have been hiding on the back of the star in the past, using this huge star to block many conventional monitoring methods.

And now, this battleship suddenly came out, which was unexpected.

But if it was just a battleship, there would be nothing to be afraid of.

There are more than 30 warships in the orbit of Xiaxing I-3.

But soon, when this behemoth got closer and closer, and could be observed more carefully by the stargazers, and the relevant information was transmitted back, it was terrifying!

This ship is too big!

It looks 28 kilometers long! From the shape, although it is very gloomy, although there are many disgusting goat-horned demon heads hanging on it, and there are many chaotic eight-pointed star patterns that are clearly stipulated as taboos and not allowed to appear in human society. But from the overall shape, some naval veterans can still recognize that it is a ship that is very similar to the “Retribution Class” battleship in the human navy.

“Retribution Class” is a serious main battleship! It is also the most common battleship in the Imperial Navy!

Obviously, this is not a friendly force.

It is most likely the vehicle of those rebellious space warriors on the ground.

No one would have thought that this group of space warriors actually had a battleship in service.

Although this Retribution-class battleship is just a single ship, without a large number of non-main ships to fight together, which will reduce its combat effectiveness to a certain extent and make it much more vulnerable.

However, no matter how fragile it is, no matter how much its combat effectiveness is reduced, it is still a serious battleship.

At the moment, the ships of the Combined Fleet surrounding the Xiaxing I-3 are all children to this battleship. The X-specification main gun on it can completely kill one child with one shot.

No matter what level of energy shield or armor it has, it is just a small ship of frigate or destroyer level. No matter how high the power of the energy shield is, it is just that.

One shot will surely explode the ship and the shield together.

On the contrary, these small firepower of the Combined Fleet are much less threatening to this battleship.

I am afraid that even the other party’s void shield cannot be broken, and the thirty ships of its own side will be named one by one and all destroyed.
