Chapter 247 The End of the Battle of the Landing Port

Boom!

Under the leaden sky, lightning flashed through the heavy clouds.

The flash of light disappeared after illuminating the earth. The rain, dyed black by dust, changed from drizzle to heavy rain, and finally formed a thick curtain in the field of vision.

This rainfall, which symbolized the arrival of the rainy season on the planet's continental plate, came more than a month earlier than usual;

It benefited from the influence of the ships in orbit on the gravitational tides, and was more controlled by the mechanical arks in the sky that were good at manipulating the atmosphere.

Yes, this heavy rain itself is also a tactical weapon for the Empire.

After the initial establishment of the landing field and the frontal defeat of the first wave of orcs, the Empire's tactical goal on this planet was only to destroy the living forces and anti-aircraft firepower here as much as possible, and eliminate the risk of the Empire's offensive into the galaxy.

The psychic Titan was recovered in time after completing the initial mission. Next, a temporary strike group composed of six Titans provided support to the land forces in the atmosphere.

They will follow the steps of the Astra Militarum and the Grey Knights to wipe out the main force of the Orcs on this planet.

This is enough, especially in the context of the collapse of the Orcs' morale.

Under the rough and tough appearance of this species, its reliance on psychic energy and group will exceeds human expectations.

Whether it is the WarBoss that was manipulated by the Sisters of Silence with their own lives in the Beast War, or the green energy that was shattered head-on by Calvin here.

These Gestalts representing their collective consciousness are too important to them, but they have no form of protection.

This is undoubtedly an extremely obvious loophole and shortcoming.

Once this shortcoming is targeted by the enemy, these orcs who have lost their spiritual support can only be thrown down to earth again and become a low-activity race that can be understood by science.

This low activity is determined by their spore-like biological instincts:

Their basic energy conversion method is photosynthesis, which is considered low-level among all carbon-based organisms.

This choice naturally has its trade-offs. Its advantages are adaptation and tolerance to the environment, as well as the terrifying reproductive ability brought by this tolerance;

What about the disadvantages? Even without the interference of external forces such as psychic energy, their energy supply system simply cannot support the brain energy needs of an intelligent race!

What is this?

A half-finished product that was rushed to be built?

After leaving the battlefield, Calvin has been reflecting on this victory that was too easy.

He saw too much utilitarianism and purposefulness in the orcs;

Therefore, he understood why the emperor still did not take them seriously after the Battle of Ullanor:

No, this is already the peak of their race.

Too low a threshold for energy conversion brings too fast an expansion speed;

But too low a threshold for energy conversion also makes their race need tens of millions of times more population than other races when trying to advance to a truly complete form!

This is almost impossible!

The territory of a huge orc empire is just enough for them to complete the construction of basic reason and system.

Then how many people are needed to pull the entire race into the psychic stage of soul ascension?

How many new people do those people need?

You are playing P/scam here!

Calvin laughed out loud when he thought of this. He felt clearly the malice of those who created the orcs.

This is an artificial race that is used as a low-level war tool. In essence, it is no different from the fighting partners that humans deliberately cultivated from wolves during the nomadic stage.

Their upper limit has long been secretly determined. Even today when their masters have long disappeared, they still cannot break free from the shackles engraved in their genes.

Calvin felt funny, and he was even more awed by those who once created the orcs:

Psionic energy is really a magical power;

Psionic technology and the ascension of the entire race are really worth the empire's efforts...

The battle on this planet is still going on, but from the perspective of the headquarters, the strategic goal of opening up an entrance for subsequent troops has actually been achieved.

Subsequent fleets and supplies are constantly pouring in, and a large amount of supplies are constantly supporting and consolidating the control of the portals on both sides of the battlefield.

When the Astartes' strike cruisers here broke away from the planetary battlefield and gradually began to join the frontal galaxy naval battle, the destruction of the Ork fleet inevitably entered a countdown state.

The Orcs, with unprecedentedly strong forces, can still bring great casualties to humans, but it is no longer helpful to the overall situation.

Just like the shackles in their bones:

The fixed warship structure leads to a lack of tactics;

And the fixed tactics themselves are a fatal flaw.

Once they are deliberately targeted by enemies of the same level, the only way waiting for them is destruction.

In fact, the specific situation of the naval battle is indeed like this:

The heavy armor on the bow of their warships was ignored, and the Imperial fleet, which took the initiative, relied on the stability of the engine, always pulled a sufficient distance from them, and then turned around and slowly hit their vulnerable waists and abdomens.

Except for the heavy casualties in the initial stage of fighting for space, which cost two large cruisers paralyzed, the large fleet had no seriously injured main battleships.

The large number of Astartes stationed on the ship made the fleet fearless of small Ork landing ships;

Once these small ships are ignored, the firepower comparison between the Empire and the Orcs in the artillery battle between large warships will be an overwhelming advantage without any objection.

This is the foundation of the Empire, and it is also the greatest confidence of the Empire as the dominant race in the Milky Way today.

As the famous saying goes: People and dogs are all showing off, only the Empire is being beaten.

Perhaps in the eyes of some people, whether it is aliens or chaos in the entire universe, they are threatening the safety of the Empire all the time;

And the Empire has indeed lost the protection of its citizens and control of its precious territory under the threat of these enemies;

But please don’t forget or ignore:

In these famous scenes, being able to play a supporting role for a long time, doesn’t it mean that the Milky Way is dominated by humans at this time?

And every time the Empire gets serious, which of those races that threaten the Empire has not returned in disappointment?

Calvin withdrew his thoughts from the fragmented thoughts and looked at the entire battle situation again. He was relieved to find that:

The battle to recapture the Hassan star zone in the direction of Orpheus has been going smoothly so far;

The battle for the most dangerous Pussterley star system has also survived the most difficult landing stage.
