Chapter 1356, The Wrath of the Emperor's Son!
The point of the Skaven's blitzkrieg is not to surprise and attack the unsuspecting, or not at all.
The real most powerful part of the Skaven Blitz is to make full use of the powerful advantages of the Skaven's number, technology, and artillery, relying on the various modified creatures of the Mord clan and the various powerful plagues of the Pestilen clan to suddenly The way of attack is to control the enemy and win.
The first is the assassination of the Eshin clan. Before the start of the war, the assassins of the Eshin clan will first assassinate the enemy headquarters and paralyze their leaders. Then, the various heavy firepower of the Skrye family will attack the barracks and important war facilities. Focus on hitting.
Blitz is the combination of surprise attack and fast attack, which will strike the enemy like lightning! It can make the enemy lose morale under the sudden threat, so that they will collapse immediately under the first huge blow!
After careful analysis, Fulgan found that almost all of the Skaven's tactics were like this, and under the attack of the Blitzkrieg, they were almost invincible.
But who is Forgan? The Emperor's Children Legion itself is one of the very few legions that have specially written how to cooperate with the Imperial Guard. He himself is also a master of strategy and tactics, and has been fighting with Horus all year round. Fulgrim's research soon discovered that the blitzkrieg also has its weaknesses. .
First of all, although the Skaven's many rats are an advantage, it is also a disadvantage. When the rats swarmed up, their morale was high and they did not fear death. The bonus of the plague also made the Skaven fight to the death. Over time, the frenzy will gradually dissipate, and the plague bonus will also weaken. If the Ratman's offensive cannot be defeated at the peak, it will fail in the future.
For example, the Black Death War in the old world, the long invasion of Lustria, and the siege of the dwarf city for example.
Furthermore, the blitzkrieg is afraid of a more powerful counterattack from the flanks.
Now, the Skaven encountered this scene. When they broke through the eight lizardman defense lines in a row and pushed the battle line under the Great Pyramid of the Moon City, they were met by the Emperor's Son Yuan led by Fulgrim. The head-on attack of the body guard Phoenix Guard, the Phoenix Guard headed by Pirazzo and Julius entered the Plague Monk, it was like a tiger entering a herd of sheep, short and crazy, and the Plague Monk was the first to be defeated by them simply by virtue of their pure fanaticism. Beheading, the plague censer was smashed to pieces, the plague flag was stepped on the ground, and those rat trolls and storm trolls were picked up by the Phoenix Guards with long spears and chopped into pieces with sharp swords.
A row of people, a few hundred meters away, the Phoenix Guard stopped the Devil Rat vanguard with their own strength. In this flesh and blood mill, under the command of the Primarch, no matter what came, it was the Slave Rat, the Clan Rat, the Storm Rat. Or the Plague Monk, or even the giant beasts of Skaven, wipe them all out!
All of a sudden, flesh and blood flew across the sky, and the Skaven's offensive was quickly contained.
kill! kill! kill!
The Stormrats collided with the Saurus Warriors.
kill! kill! kill!
The rat troll swung its own fist, smashing the Cold One knight into the ground.
kill! kill! kill!
The Silver Bullet Musketeers fired a volley, tearing apart the poisonous wind mortar team from the side.
The golden mage recited the ancient contract, the great lord of the elemental lord, the Balrog King, and the Pit Abomination hugged and wrestled together. Venom flowed.
kill!
The tall warriors of the Phoenix Guard were knocked away by the mutant rats, and the blades of the warp stone coated with the poison of the plague sliced through their plate armor. Rat's chest.
The flesh and blood storm was mixed, and the Lizardman army in the Moon City received this strong support, and began to slow down the gods under the surprise of the Blitzkrieg. The skinny priests could not seek the enlightenment of the magic toad, but they still have their own role , Although they were very distressed about the city buildings, the Skink Priests still summoned meteorites and smashed the Skaven siege towers, the Warp Stone Lightning Cannon, and the Plague Catapult were blown up, along with the buildings left by the Old Sages.
The Skaven's Blitz is in trouble.
But no matter what you say, there are only more than a hundred Phoenix Guards, and thousands of Ratmen. These powerful warriors are no match for a hundred Rats. When all eyes were covered, Fulgan could only order to fight and retreat.
The Primarch of the Emperor's Children has been looking for where is the leader of the Skaven.
The leader of the Skaven army must be killed, or they will be heaped alive by the enemy.
In fact, the Legion of Ashes was also beaten a little confused. The real large troops were still landing on the north bank one after another. Fulgrim personally brandished the Spear of Sotek and the Blade of the Phoenix, sweeping across the battlefield. The lightning and flames were all extinguished, but the enemy leader was still invisible.
And at this moment, Fulgrim was called by a skink priest.
"Son of the Old Sage, hurry up, we need your help!"
"What help!"
"The Great Pyramid of Kuiti has been attacked by the enemy! All the priests of Slan are fighting against the coming of the evil moon. We cannot lose all the venerables in the Great Pyramid, otherwise everything will fail!"
Fulgrim's face changed slightly. Of course, the Primarch, the Emperor's Son, saw the extremely dangerous Xie Yue falling from the sky. Following the coordinates given by the Skink Priest, he looked at the Great Pyramid of Kuti, the City of the Moon, in the distance.
All the magic toad priests are gathering there, with them as the center, all the surrounding pyramids shoot out soaring rays of light, bombarding the surface of the evil moon, the ancient holy shield that was supposed to protect the Great Pyramid is missing the magic toad It is currently closed for maintenance.
In the City of the Moon, bloody battles are everywhere.
The wide avenue and the square between the pyramids were full of fierce fights between ratmen and lizardmen, and teams of support troops were rushing to the front line to fill in the gaps in the defensive line.
The one who talked to Fulgan was the legendary hero of the Lizardmen, Teto-Ike, the skink priest. The appearance of this skink priest on the battlefield foretells the importance of the battle. Ya's favorable choice, the strands of fortune leaked from the fate track are sensitively felt by it and turned into incredible power to reverse fate.
Under its prophecy, Lustia has avoided many terrible catastrophes created by the Ratmen. It uses its predictive ability to know the direction of the enemy before it has planned. It is also the only one who is allowed to sit on the golden seat. Priest of Slann.
Teto-Ike is anxious like an ant on a hot pot at this time, because there will not be any magic toad priests to help them in this war. The most powerful second-generation magic toad Tehuga All the lord's energy was focused on fighting Xie Yue.
Lizardmen have to rely on themselves. It is naturally Teto-Ike's responsibility to protect the countless heritage remains. In addition, he also needs to protect the spawning pool that cannot be replaced by other things. There is another primary goal: to protect The living magic toad mages. Since it is impossible to foresee the future and determine the next plan, it is almost impossible for Teto-Ike to escape, only possible defense.
On the one hand, Tetoac ordered the deployment of the temple guard army and the elite holy hatching army to support the various places, and ordered the Triceratops and Ankylosaurus to support the skinks living areas and western temples that had been ravaged by the ratmen. After several hours of fierce fighting, , the continuous skaven army has flooded half of the city, and Tetoac can't wake up and support the Slann's war, but it can at least call on Fulgrim.
The battle line is already approaching the Great Pyramid, if the Skaven rush in, then everything will be over!
Amidst the huge roar of the wild beast and the loud and passionate chants of the Ratmen, Fulgrim still keenly caught Teto-Ike's communication. Finish?"
"It's not that easy!" cried Tetoac. "Son of the Old Ones, tell your men to withdraw immediately, to the Great Pyramid!"
"In that case, we are passively defending, and we will be defeated sooner or later!"
"I need you to buy me some time!"
Fulgan hesitated for a moment, but immediately agreed: "Okay!"
The Phoenix Guard retreated under Fulgen's order, and on the other side, Mage Jin also ordered to retreat.
The Ash Legion's surprise attack bought a lot of time for Moon City's defense. When they retreated, more Saurus Legion and Skink Legion took their place.
After killing a bloody path, Fulgen led the Phoenix Guards to the Sotek Altar in front of the Great Pyramid. There were blood sacrifices all around him. Fulgen could feel the bloodthirsty killing intent from the Sotek Spear. He saw When Tetoac sat on the golden throne: "Can you help me find out the location of the leader of the rats?"
"Yes, it just takes some time." Tetoac said calmly, and Priest Skink immediately raised his stellar staff. There was a mysterious orrery on the top of this staff: "Until then, guard the pyramid!"
"no problem."
At present, Fulgrim has no other way to quickly contact other temple cities. Wyvern couriers had been dispatched long ago, but there was no way of knowing if they had reached their destination. As for whether the other cities were attacked by the Ratman, or were damaged by the impact of the fragments of the evil moon, it is not known at all. As time went on, the battle situation became worse and worse.
However, the Skaven's offensive was always blocked. Fulgrim blocked the gate of heaven alone. The Primarch of the Emperor's Son seemed to be crazy and killed the attack of the three plague monks alone. Seeing the Primarch So brave, the morale of the Phoenix Guards was high, Pirazzo cut down six Skaven captains by himself, and Julius cut the two plague priests carrying the plague censer into two pieces.
"How is it? Do I feel a little bit like Sanguinius now?" After stabbing the spear of Sotek into the back of a storm troll from behind, Fulgrim still stroked his gorgeous silver hair, and moved towards Julius showed off.
"It's too bad." Julius said with a dark face, "Why don't you defeat a red sand angel first to add to the fun?"
"..." Forgan turned around immediately, he seemed to be angry.
On the other side, Mage Gold's troops also firmly guarded the hatching pool. Under the protection of Yenicheri, Mage Jin was chanting a taboo spell in the history of Araby. Behind him, the king of elements, Desolate Kalimus, the lord of the barbarians, has successfully descended into the mortal world.
The four elements of wind, fire, water, and earth are fused together, this is the strongest king of elements that the golden mage can summon! Even Master Jin himself didn't think that he would really be able to summon successfully one day.
"Elements, merge into one!" Kalimos' body was tens of meters high, and it came in response to Master Jin's call.
"The curse of the earth!" A hundred strong giant statues of the earth element rose up from the ground, firmly blocking the road.
"The curse of water!" The rain of healing washed over the mortals, washing away the plague.
"Curse of fire!" Six flaming meteors fell, and a flaming storm burned through the Skaven army in the City of the Moon.
"Curse of the wind!" Lightning storm exploded in the ranks of the Skaven engineer, the Ratling team, and the poisonous windball bombardiers, and shattered the war equipment made by the Skrye family.
Colchis-Greedy, the chief of the marching road of Skaven Moon City, the youngest and most radical assistant of the suzerain of the plague clan began to feel a little bad.
This battle lasted for nearly eighteen hours, and they still did not break through the Moon City, slaughter all the Slans in the pyramid, conquer the hatching pool and let the rats have a full meal as planned, but stalemate Stopped, it has noticed that the slave rats and clan rats are beginning to show signs of fatigue, and many slave rats are already foaming at the mouth - no matter how strong or crazy the rat rats have the strongest plague blessing, they will not May fight forever.
The plague monks are still powerful, their skin has become as tough as leather due to the power of corruption, and their fanatical worship of the plague is even more powerful. When the berserk energy flows through the plague monks, they gain a stronger protective force, and they can no longer care about the various fatal blows of the lizardmen, even being pierced, hands and feet cut off, and internal organs ripped out Coming out, the Plague Monks still maintain their berserk attacks.
It's only one step away from breaking the Great Pyramid, and even the holy guards are no match for the plague monks, but that human -- Colchis doesn't know if it's a human, he's so perverted, he fought for hours , Colchis has already lost eight plague legions under his command, Colchis-Gluttor knows very well that if it cannot accomplish its goal of destroying the Moon City, then this will be its last It's been a battle, and Suzerain Negrich will let it understand what life is worse than death.
Colchis was about to join the fray, and he swung the three-headed plague censer chain hammer to pray to the Horned Rat for his blessing.
On the other side, Tetoac, the chief skink priest, communicated with the huge wind of magic, looking for something in the sky that its spiritual power could lock.
A series of syllables came out of its mouth, which was an ancient holy language that even the Skink Priest could not understand. Through this recitation, it completed a certain mysterious ritual.
The power of the Skink Priestess now roams the cosmos until it finds its prophesied target.
A beam of starlight burst out of the clouds and aimed at Colchis-Gluttor hiding among the horde of plague monks, illuminating it.
Ko~ko~da~yo~
"I have marked the enemy, Son of the Old One!" The Skink Priestess immediately signaled Fulgrim.
"Very good." Fulgrim grinned grimly. He lowered his body, grasped the Sotek spear with one hand, and fixed his eyes on the target.
Go all out! The Primarch's body was shot out like a cannonball!
At a distance of 500 meters, in an instant, a light wave of concentrated energy tore a huge gap in the formation of the Skaven army, followed by Fulgrim's scream, the scream of the Primarch piercing the meninges It made the Phoenix Guards full of energy, and all the Skavens who heard his devilish voice only felt a splitting headache, couldn't help bleeding from their mouths and noses on the spot, and those who got a little closer directly burst their heads and splashed their brains.
The power unleashed by the Primarch of the Emperor's Children exploded continuously. A golden flash traveled in a straight line from the center of the pyramid for a distance of five hundred meters, melting everything it touched, and the roaring flames destroyed every skaven. People, slime and filth were peeled off from the cracks in the rocks and turned into nothingness. The cursed Ratmen battle flag exploded, and the war machines soaked in the plague turned into dust and smoke, drifting away with the wind, leaving only one road on the ground. Melted straight cracks.
"Huh?" Colchis had just noticed something approaching, and just thought "the big one is coming", when the Sotek spear had penetrated its body, from the chest to the back.
"?" At this moment, Colchis still didn't understand what happened.
"I found~ found~ you~" Fulgrim's unparalleled handsome face appeared in front of Colchis, the primarch clenched the barrel of the gun, kicked his legs, and flew up with the chief officer of the marching road of Skaven Moon City. into the sky, turning into dots of light ascending to heaven.
Everyone and the mouse were dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
Five seconds later, a shining light filled the horizon appeared in the sky, and a powerful shock wave smashed down, blowing up all the Skaven near the point of impact, only to see Fulgrim stepping on Colchis' body, The Sotek Spear penetrated deep into the ground through the body of the Skaven Warlord and Plague Lord.
Colchis' body trembled violently, and the Plague Lord reached out and grabbed the shaft of Sotek's spear, thinking that I could still save him.
Fulgrim's face was ugly, isn't this dead?
never mind.
The Primarch, the Emperor's Son, screamed again, and the shock wave swept across. The Plague Monks and the Stormrat Legion who were trying to come to the rescue either had their heads exploded on the spot or were stunned by bleeding from their noses and mouths. Phoenix fire was burning all over the Primarch, and six The flaming flying sword separated from the flames under Fulgen's exquisite control.
"Cut~"
With an order, six psychic fire swords fell and pierced the heart of the plague lord, and his filthy body was completely burned into white smoke in a few seconds in the phoenix fire.
Colchis, the warlord, chief warlord, and plague lord of Skaven Moon City died in battle.
Seeing the boss being killed by an existence of this level, the morale of the Skaven's entire army immediately collapsed. As much as the rats charged before, they escaped as much as they could now.
The City of the Moon is defended.
The final decisive battle between the Lizardmen and the Skavens also started in full swing with the victory in the defense of the Moon City.
