Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 75

Chapter 75, Three Warnings

Mondok knew what the right thing to do was, but he didn’t dare to do it.

It was nothing, he was afraid of death. He

hesitated and swayed, but when he was at a loss, Gu Hang’s steps were so firm and getting closer and closer.

He knew this, and as time passed, he began to realize that he could no longer hesitate.

At this time, making a choice, even if it was wrong, would not be more wrong than doing nothing. He

really didn’t dare to show up in person, face the majesty of the governor, and face the threat of the Space Marines; but he couldn’t surrender to the governor, there was no such option; he was unwilling to give up the current situation and retreat directly to the inner city, which was equivalent to losing his prestige. A general who abandoned the army will never be able to gain the support of the army again. At that time, the governor may really be able to take away the command of the army by relying on justice.

He finally came up with a compromise plan.

…

Gu Hang was finally blocked.

To be honest, he was disappointed with this.

The reaction was too slow.

Although, the current scene was one of the many possibilities he had expected. The soldiers might be at a loss because of the identity of the governor, because of the suddenness, and because they never opened fire. This is exactly why Gu Hang chose to set off when the sun was about to rise and many people were still asleep, and why he didn’t let anyone shoot when he passed the checkpoint in front.

But if it really happened, he still lamented the opponent’s indecisiveness.

If Gu Hang himself was in the opposite position, he would have decisively ordered to pull up the heavy artillery and tanks, regardless of whether there were accidental injuries or not, and regardless of what the consequences would be after the battle, just bomb him first.

That Mondok, didn’t he think that he couldn’t survive?

He was still hesitating about what to worry about.

Of course, if the other party really wanted to do this, Gu Hang was actually not afraid. Since he dared to come, he certainly had the means to break the situation.

The heavy artillery couldn’t kill the Space Marines, the Battle Sisters, and him.

To be more precise, it couldn’t be bombarded.

But this situation didn’t happen, so there’s no need to say more.

At the moment, Gu Hang didn’t care about this obstacle.

About a company of soldiers, led by several officers, blocked the road in front of them. They were obviously in a hurry and didn’t even have time to set up roadblocks. They just blocked the road with human flesh and didn’t even fire a shot.

But there was an officer in front of the battle, holding a loud speaker and shouting:

“Stop advancing! We will open fire after three warnings! The governor must come alone!”

Hearing the warning, Gu Hang also saw the soldiers blocking the road on the opposite side. The muzzles of their guns were raised, their hands were on the triggers, and they were ready to fire at any time.

Three warnings?

Gu Hang had a sneer on his face.

“These are indeed rebels in front of us.” Gu Hang said softly.

The officer on the opposite side was about to issue a second warning, but at this moment, a bolter blew up his body.

The large-caliber warhead made of diamond completely destroyed most of the officer’s body. The extremely penetrating bolter continued to penetrate and killed another soldier, and then exploded in the crowd.

The characteristics of the standard bolter, in addition to the large-caliber warhead with strong penetration, are also equipped with explosive fuses and micro-shaped charges. When it explodes, the combined power of impact and shrapnel is even more powerful than ordinary grenades and gun-mounted grenades.

The bolter in the hands of the Space Marines is simply a crushing weapon for ordinary armies. It can be used as a small-caliber howitzer when fighting against light infantry, and it can also be used as an armor-piercing projectile when fighting against armored units. After penetrating the armor, the bolter will explode inside the vehicle, killing the target inside the vehicle.

Seven Space Marines opened fire at the same time, and the firepower of the bolters covered the hundreds of soldiers who were like human walls on the road. Almost in an instant, they were completely destroyed.

Even if there were two tanks among those soldiers, it would be meaningless.

If it was the main battle tank of the Astra Militarum, such as the Lion tank, the bolter would really scratch it. But at the moment, these two tanks were just local products produced by some military enterprises on the Wrath of the Owl Star, not the main land battle tanks of the Astra Militarum. The armor looked thick, but whether it was the design, technological content, or the material itself, it was not good enough to stop the explosive bombs made of diamond warheads.

The explosive bombs penetrated the armor, hit the car, and caused an explosion inside.

The problem of a hole in the tank might not be too big, but the people inside would definitely not survive.

During this process, some of the hundreds of soldiers occasionally reacted and pulled the trigger, firing at the Space Marines.

But until they were almost all dead, the number of bullets fired was probably no more than twenty, and most of them missed. The few that hit could not even leave a scratch on the Space Marine’s power armor.

A Space Marine standing at the front said, “What gave these mortals the courage to stand in a dense formation on an open road without cover, without shelter, and with backward equipment to stop us?”

Gu Hang knew that the man who spoke was Schneider. This bald warrior without a helmet was a more elite warrior than the veteran. Moreover, Gu Hang could see that the guy had some problems with Chapter Master Martins.

But Gu Hang didn’t have time to pay attention to these things and what he just said.

He had more important things to do now.

The psychic energy was surging, and telekinesis amplified the degree to which his vocal cords vibrated the air when he spoke, sending his words to the ears of many soldiers who were watching the devastating, one-sided massacre just now:

“I am the governor of the empire, I am the ruler of the alliance, and anyone who dares to stop me will be regarded as a traitor! I order all soldiers to obey orders, stay on the spot, and wait for the result!”

“I am the governor of the empire…all soldiers, obey orders, stay on the spot, and wait for the result!”

…

This sentence seemed to form a wave in the air, constantly echoing.

At the same time, the speed of Gu Hang and his group suddenly increased.

When the Space Marines and Battle Sisters were moving at full speed, their speed was comparable to that of a chariot. Their explosive power was stronger than that of a short-distance champion, and their endurance was stronger than that of a long-distance champion.

And Gu Hang, of course, would not chase with his own two legs. Telekinesis control took effect again, and the invisible force lifted his body, making him half-floating, closely following the advancing extraordinary warriors, keeping himself under their protection.

Would it be better if I posted both chapters at noon?

Previously, they were posted twice, one at noon and one in the afternoon, which seemed a bit disjointed.
