The Emperor’s Angel of Death

"Aher."

This is a phrase spoken by the Star Warrior after the survivors are called, a high Gothic phrase that the residents of the nest do not know very well.

At first the commander and the soldiers thought it was a greeting, then they guessed it was a curse, and then they realized that it was neither.

This phrase was spread word of mouth among the citizens of various shelters and strongholds. Men and women whispered the word to each other when they met. Parents would say this to their children as if it were a cure for fear. Old friends would Shake hands and say it before parting.

None of the soldiers asked the survivors what it meant, and the people who asked were shook their heads and looked at them with a melancholy look, as if they were just asking why people were breathing.

After that, just as the soldiers’ curiosity faded away, the volunteers stepped forward.

At first there were only a few people, brave people in ragged clothes, and then more came-old people, young people, men, women, clustered together.

When the officers showed up, the ragged citizens would say that they would come voluntarily to fill the vacancies left by the sacrificed soldiers. They would drive any war machine and obey any order.

At first, the guards scattered everywhere refused, but with every attack by Ouke, the loss increased.

They can replace machines. Unused munitions are scattered in forgotten corners and bunkers in the bunker. Most of the equipment is old and damaged, or new but incomplete, but the damage can be repaired, or Replace with found parts.

What can't be replaced are those who manipulate machines, control guns, and press the trigger.

So, in the end, the terrible arithmetic of the war gave the surviving residents of the Hades Occupied Zone what they wanted-they would launch an attack on their lost land, kill those who took it away from them. s things.

The old and weak women and children were sent to a safer place, while the rest were taught how to control armored vehicles, how to load artillery, how to aim and fire, and how to use microphones.

As a training, this is too short and too insufficient. The soldiers know it, and the citizens know it.

Most people know that the cruel reality either teaches them or kills them, but no one talks about it.

What's the point of telling the truth out loud?

After less than twenty-four hours of training, the volunteers were assigned to the unit that suffered the loss.

A small part of them, those who are talented and have mastered the skills, are granted vehicles to control.

Later, only after realizing that they would live and die together, did the soldiers ask the mysterious Astarte monks, what does "Aher" mean.

Astarte’s explanation is simple. It comes from the distant planet Nathan 4 and has many meanings, but here and now, it has only one meaning.

"revenge."

They said so and so.

"It means revenge."

After the meeting, Masin returned to the lively and unusual camp. Ten thousand soldiers in gray uniforms gathered near the original armory. The shell climbs up and down, inspects the armor plate, repairs the crawler device, tests the turret rotation performance, raises and lowers the gun barrel, and chants battle prayers to appease the angry machine spirit of the great war machine.

This armory has a semi-buried structure, so it was not discovered by Green Skin. A group of retreating guards used it to guard it. In the end, these armed forces became the key to the new formation.

The roar of the engine, the hum of the servo system and the singing of mechanical hymns filled the air.

The exhaust gas emitted by the vehicle is comparable to the pungent planetary atmosphere. The air is shaken by the roar of the vehicle's engine. Unless you can see it with your own eyes, anyone who can't really realize how cumbersome and noisy it is to get an army out.

Even Masin did not expect that there are so many survivors in the occupied areas.

They gathered more than 200,000 young men and women in just one week.

Before the battle began, everyone could feel the atmosphere of secret excitement and suppressed fear.

But when a person is surrounded by fear and isolation for several months, he will no longer be so afraid of death. After all, there are so many more people around him.

"Has the Nineteenth Regiment contacted you?"

"Sir, it has been contacted. The other party is moving towards the scheduled assembly point. They are relatively close to the green leather gathering area. It may take some time."

They passed a row of Chimera, the car crew was lying on a military blanket with their headrests and bags to check their light guns, and Masin occasionally nodded in greetings with people he knew along the way. From the siege to the present, the familiar faces that can be recognized have been very familiar. not enough.

Passing a long train of trucks with idling engines, the drivers' heads stick out the windows and look around. Several of the personnel carriers in front of them asked loudly what it was like to wait for the car in place.

"what's the situation?"

Masin quickly discovered the reason for the stagnation of the team.

A truck broke down due to a mechanical failure, blocking the entire convoy. A team of workers and their tractor were lowering a metal suspension plate to the front of the truck, hoping that the hoisting rail could successfully lift the truck.

The other team put the chain on the front tow hook of the truck to pull the trapped vehicle away.

Masin quickened his pace and walked away from the chaotic place.

In the front is a large area full of bubble-shaped camps. This was originally a sports field, but now it has become the main staging area of ​​the Armageddon Counterattack Corps.

In the open area between the camping areas, companies are seizing the time to train and repair equipment.

The officers always like to keep the soldiers busy.

"Look at these people."

Ma Xin said, pointing at a bunch of recruits with a big wave of his right arm.

"They should go to church and chant the scriptures."

Ma Xin's deputy glanced at him but said nothing, probably because he thought so in his heart.

A large part of the crowd are new faces. Many of these young people who are just fifteen or six years old still shave the choir's little dome hairstyle. Their childish looks are too familiar to veterans~www.readwn.com ~According to the time span of this war, they were like this not too long ago.

At this time, an veteran gave a low whistle, which was often used to express happiness.

"Would you like to go up and pass on life experience?"

"Don't delay things."

These newly recruited soldiers are still sharp and full of vigor, and they clearly have not been beaten on the battlefield.

Masin knows that most of them will not live to have a chance to mature. This is not an unpredictable prophet, but has experienced many battles.

They quickly moved to the core area of ​​the camp. After two inspections by the guards, there were very few people here. Only officers and technicians wearing standard uniforms occasionally hurried past.

This is not only the command center of the counterattack group, but also the real pillar of this counterattack-the location where the Astral Knights battle group is stationed.
