Chapter 559 The Rise of the Lion King: The Air Strike and the Beginning
The explosion happened at the airport. The first bomb landed on the transport fuselage on the tarmac. In the blink of an eye, that huge aerial giant bird turned into burning fragments all over the sky. The huge wing broke and hit the runway. The raging fire instantly ignited everything around with the spilled gasoline.
The paratroopers who boarded the plane behind him were blown to pieces, their broken hands and feet were wrapped in **** clothes, and fell on the entire surface of the runway. The bomb was dropped again, destroying another transport plane parked on the standby platform.
The Valkyrie exploded in an instant, and the explosion spread to other transport planes parked nearby. The entire airport was instantly ablaze, and steel fragments rolled and danced in the flames, drawing a long arc in the air.
The attack plane swooped down from the ground, and the soldier standing on the roof of the armored vehicle held the machine gun on the roof, squeezed the trigger, and fired violently. Following the extremely fast fighter plane, it rushed over like a phantom, and then an explosion occurred at the oil depot in the distance. Sacrifice.
The rising fireball lit up the entire airport, and the soldiers on the armored vehicle continued to shoot fiercely into the air. Around him, the Star Guardsmen on the runway began to scatter in all directions to seek cover, and many of them raised their laser guns , aimed at the enemy planes in the sky, but they were too fast for the laser gun to hit at all.
The Star Forces have faced many bombings. They have seen the carpet bombing of the Greenskin fighter planes, the death strafing that can disintegrate everything, and the roaring and terrifying bombing of the Chaos Demon Engine, but all of this, everything None of these silent reapers are more menacing now.
Like the Eldar's, the Tau's bombers differed markedly from the Imperial's in that they were quieter, but at the same time lightning fast, and as they rushed over the airfield, they were like a flock of silent birds, only swarming in the air with their bellies outstretched. Mouth, you don't feel their presence until you drop the bombs.
Several Tau fighter planes were used as a unit, continuously dived down from the sky, then pulled up again and rotated at high altitude, and then swooped down again, dropping deadly bullet rain. Control technology, as well as smart bombs, turned into a real whirlwind of death.
The Star Guards did not expect to be attacked at all. Before that, the Tau and the Empire did not go to war, and the escalation of the situation did not seem to have reached the level of tension visible to the naked eye. But now, the war started overnight, and they were beaten. He was caught off guard, the airport was severely lacking in air defense, and faced the incoming enemy with his bare hands.
Surgical air strikes destroyed a large number of Imperial fighter planes parked at the airport one by one. The Lightning fighters and the Valkyrie Squadron were blasted into charred wreckage by the precision bombs sprinkled overhead before they could even get on the runway. , the skies are now controlled by these hideous aliens.
The fighter plane whizzed past with the scream of death. It dropped a bomb, which exploded among the paratroopers on the runway, and instantly sprinkled a rain of blood. The red raindrops hit Kane's body, and he bent over. , lowered his body and fell to the back of a Leman Russ.
"Medic!" came the distant yell, mixed with more screams, cursing, and yelling to ask what happened, but everyone knew they had been hit by an airstrike.
Kane leaned against the car, and a shadow flew over his head. He looked up, and the soldiers on the roof of the tank turned around, and the heavy machine guns in their hands fired after the roaring fighter plane. Hot bullet casings kept falling from overhead.
Kane's skin was burned, and he immediately leaned to one side, and then leaned on the shoulder of the person beside him. Only then did he realize that it was Vito, and he also hid behind the tank, looking up Watching the shadows darting past overhead.
Beside him, Loken shot violently into the air with his bolt gun. The burly body of the space soldier stood on the runway, raised his gun high and followed the enemy planes that swooped down like vultures, and the bombs kept roaring. , The shell casings fell from the chamber like a machine gun, and hit the ground with a clanging sound.
It rushed over Loken's head, blowing up the Blitz fighter planes on the apron in the distance. They exploded into fireballs and mixed together, sweeping across most of the airport in the blink of an eye.
The star fighters who fired into the air in front were instantly engulfed, their flesh and blood screaming in the flames, and finally fell to the ground, covered in flames, Kane looked in that direction and cursed, "What the **** is that?" ?!"
"Tau fighter." Vito looked at the black dot swooping down from the sky, grabbed Kane by the collar, and pulled Kane out of the tank. They rushed out of the range of the tank, and the machine gunner on the roof squatted down and lifted The machine gun fired at the fighter plane, and then it exploded together with the tank.
The turret was thrown up, spinning and flying in the air, and then hit the ground all of a sudden. Loken followed behind the two, turned around and fired into the air while backing up. He fired, as if he had hit a fighter plane. The thing's wings spewed flames, and then it fell at a low altitude, hitting the runway and exploding.
Loken looked at the explosion, and then suddenly raised his head to look at another fighter plane that swooped towards him. It fired violently at the ground, and Loken threw himself backwards, dodging the incoming barrage. .
Loken leaned in and put on new magazines. They hid under the wall, but here, they were also hiding with them were members of the Tau mission.
They were lucky to be alive, not to be bombed by their own people, or by the Astra Militarum who were being bombed by their Tau brethren and might shoot them in anger.
"Damn it! Tau people! Are you **** making a sneak attack?! Undeclared war?!" Kane cursed behind Vito.
Il Solas immediately showed anger, shouted and waved his palms with only four hands, "We will never do such a despicable act! Only you humans can do it!"
"Okay, shut up!" Vito shouted loudly, stopping the two guys, "Contact your fighters, no matter what the reason they are here, tell them you are here, and stop the bombing immediately."
"Believe me, we've tried it a long time ago, and we can't get in touch with them at all." Renly buried his head in the explosion, and above the hangar behind them, the black shadow of the vulture rushed low and dropped the bomb all at once. When it came down, it exploded on the runway, and a raging flame rose instantly. An imperial fighter plane that rushed onto the runway and tried to take off to meet it was blown up, and the flames rose like a winter cloud of fire.
The anti-aircraft guns rang, and the anti-aircraft guns behind the sandbags finally began to fire into the air. The multiple barrels fired shells into the sky, following the enemy planes and firing violently. Around, more anti-aircraft guns were dragged onto the runway, the star world The soldiers worked together to push the anti-aircraft guns.
Vito looked at them and yelled, "Where's Castine?"
"He's dead, or he's commanding a counterattack! Look! Sura is here!" Kane pointed and shouted. On an anti-aircraft gun in the distance, Sura was sitting on the shooter's seat, holding the gun in his hand. The muzzle fires fiercely, turns over the muzzle to follow the surroundings and dives to shoot at full force.
But Kastin isn't here, she's either dead, or she's leading her soldiers somewhere to fight back.
The warplanes swooped down and dropped bombs. The battlefield church was blown up, and the ceiling of the entire hangar was smashed through. The power of faith did not shelter it. The bomb exploded inside, and the fire rushed out from the warehouse door in an instant.
The emperor's statue car at the gate was also affected and turned into flying fragments, symbolizing that the immortal **** emperor also turned into golden fragments, flying all over the sky.
"Damn it! Jurgen is dead!" Kane squatted down and yelled. Vito looked back at the hangar roof that was blown off. By the side of a tractor full of bullet holes, its driver was lying on the door and had been beaten into a sieve long ago.
The enemy plane rushed over the vehicle, turned in the air and then aimed at the ground and strafed violently. The barrage passed Vito's side, and several Astra Militarum who were shooting in the air were turned into blood mist.
"They must be knocked down." "How?!" "Follow me, and you follow." Vito said to the Tau beside him. Facing the bombing, he remained surprisingly calm.
Solas immediately frowned, "You want us to help you beat our people?" "Your people are throwing bombs on our heads, unless you have eyes for the bombs, otherwise, in the eyes of the Supreme Good and the Emperor For the sake, keep up."
Vito yelled and rushed out, and Kane also yelled and threw away his tattered coat to follow. The former rushed to the side of the tractor, turned over and jumped onto the multiple anti-aircraft guns behind the vehicle. The trigger is held in the shooter's position.
"Reload."
Kane tore the ammunition box from the car body, but it was locked. Kane cursed and pulled out the depleted laser gun, and hit the lock with the **** of the gun several times, and then he was thrown backwards. Pulling it open, Solas raised his pistol and shot to break the lock. Kane quickly opened it and picked up a clip of ammunition.
He turned around and stepped on the anti-aircraft gun chassis, and suddenly inserted the magazine into the barrel, and on the other side, Solas also inserted the magazine. With the sound of the shell being loaded, Vito slammed his foot down The anti-aircraft gun roared instantly and fired violently at the air fighter.
Solas and Kane stood beside Vito with the magazine pressed down. They looked at the enemy plane in the air. Solas raised his slender blue finger and pointed to the left.
"There! Bandit!"
Vito looked at the swooping enemy plane suddenly, he stepped on the steering pedal at his feet, but the whole gun body remained motionless, Vito saw the sparks ejected from the base.
"Steering motor is broken! Manual steering!"
Vito yelled, Renly had reached the other side of the gun barrel beside him, he spun the switch suddenly, the Tau's body structure obviously didn't make them good at strenuous exercise, he gasped, and spun that compass.
"Hurry up!" Vito yelled, Kane, Solas looked at the fighter plane that swooped down, its muzzle was aimed at them, and the barrage poured down, hitting the runway and approaching them rapidly.
"Renly!" Solas yelled, Renly cursed in the language of the Tau, and suddenly pressed his whole body on the turntable, turning it to the bottom in an instant, the anti-aircraft gun turned around, Vito aimed at the fighter plane and stepped on the pedal suddenly, the shells whizzed out and hit the fighter plane, the fighter jet shot out flames instantly, rushed over their heads, and fell to the ground all at once.
Kane turned his head and watched the flames explode, while Vito cursed and pushed down the back of the seat, leaning back all of a sudden, "Don't look! Lift the muzzle! Quick!"
He roared, and Solas of the Fire Clan immediately went up, pushed the exhausted Renly away, grabbed his hand and turned it around violently, his speed was much faster, the base of the entire anti-aircraft gun was lifted quickly, and the multi-barreled The gun was aimed at the sky, and Vito leaned back in his chair and looked at the sky and fired violently.
Since humans and the Tau can fight side by side, they stand together, facing the many enemy planes whizzing down overhead.
On the anti-aircraft gun, Kane cursed loudly at the flock of vultures that swooped down above his head. The cursing was like the interlaced left and right multi-barreled guns, resounding in Vito's ears.
He leaned back in his chair, aimed at a Tau fighter and stepped on the pedal to blow it up. The fighter fell on them, and the black smoke swept the sky. It flew over the heads of several people, fell on the runway and exploded .
There was a burst of cheers all around, and the rest of the vultures fled. They flew into the sky and disappeared behind the clouds.
"Win?" Kane asked.
"No, this isn't even a start."
