StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Augustus noticed that these engineers wearing orange and gray engineering uniforms were still very young, and some markings on the uniforms indicated that they were only temporary recruits of the Space Marine Corps locally. These conscripts are usually refugees. If the war goes well, these conscripts will not serve for more than two years.

Nowadays, the bridges and trains on the Paddick River have been cut off by Kemerian. The Seven Sisters bridge, which is famous throughout the colonial world, has either been blown up and the main body of the bridge has sunk to the bottom of the river, or it has been submerged in the surging river due to the surge in water levels during the rainy season. among.

In an area of ​​about a mile near the river banks on both sides, all the buildings, lighthouse piers and green belts have been razed to the ground, replaced by rubble, glass and wind-blown sand and dust.

On the south bank of the Padik River, two brigades of Federation Space Marines, an army division, two artillery regiments, a tank armor division, and three Avengers regiments were stationed. To the north is a Kemorian Ripper Legion. The land on the other side is full of bunkers built by Kemorian construction workers based on the original buildings and bunkers piled with sandbags.

After entering the construction site, company commander Warfield arranged tasks for each squad through each platoon leader, detailing where each person in each squad should be at what time, as well as what tasks the person wanted to complete, and who wanted to do it. Responsible for supervising him.

Augustus Class's mission is to patrol an area of ​​about a mile near the construction site as a scout to guard against Kemerian agents infiltrating. Every fifteen minutes, he must report to the platoon leader through the communication system inside the power armor. Make a report.

Throughout the next day, Augustus's first squad carried out their patrol duties. The area being patrolled was an urban ruin, amidst ruins and ruins. The walls collapsed, the masonry cracked, and the twisted underground water pipes were exposed to the scorching sun.

This area was once the most prosperous commercial district in the city center, with tall buildings and rococo-style luxury villas built by the rich. Today, only a few of the toughest buildings are left standing. The best-preserved one is a statue of the goddess Europa with only half of its body left.

During the mission, Augustus saw no one except the other brothers in the platoon. When patrolling close to the Padic River, he turned to using his telescope to observe the Padic River and the Kemerian position on the other side of the river.

Today's Paddick River is still very clear, as pure as the glacial lake at its source, but the picturesque riverbanks and rippling blue waters have long since disappeared. What remains before the eyes of the world are only ruins and the angry and roaring river of sorrow. .

Under this situation, Augustus and others could no longer see the Padick-Sister Bridge section of the river that had attracted countless tourists as a tourist destination. Occasionally, they could hear the sound of fighter jets flying overhead.

The river was very open, and low-magnification telescopes were not enough for Augustus to clearly see the fortifications and firepower points of the Kemorian army on the other side of the river.

On the other side of the river is the heavily armed Kaimorian Ripper Legion. In the past three years, they have already built arc-shaped fortresses and protective walls along the river bank.

Inside the protective walls that are dozens of feet high are missile towers, land defense guns, and pop-up machine guns. The Camorians focused on building areas where the flow of water was slower and easier to cross the river, making the north bank an impregnable military fortress.

Augustus would often stare at the Padic River, thinking about how he could cross the fast-flowing river if he commanded an army, send his troops to the other side, and end the war completely.

When the fourth patrol arrived near the Paddick River, night had fallen and the sun sank into the earth. Warfield ordered Augustus to return to the new military camp under construction.

By this time, the blood-red light of the setting sun had faded, and the black skyscraper complex cut the moonlit horizon into jagged jagged shapes.

On the opposite side of the river, on the north bank of the Padik River, hundreds of beams of light emitted by the Caimorians' laser searchlights swept across the river and the sky, and flares streaked across the sky from time to time.

A few miles away from Augustus Ban, an artillery position of the Terran Federation began to fire. Hundreds of icy blue bright spots fell on the opposite bank. The electromagnetic pulse wave generated by the explosion lit up the night sky.

After returning to the construction site, Warfield immediately asked Augustus to go alone to a garage built with prefabricated steel plates, and his troops were placed under the direct command of the company headquarters.

Augustus originally thought that there was some task that had to be explained in person or that there was a meeting of officers, but he soon discovered that other officers stayed at their posts.

After meeting Warfield, the other party did not show any concern: Your brother arrived in Turasis II yesterday, and the division headquarters is not far from here. He told me on the phone just now that he has not seen him for seven or eight years. My brother is here, and you want me to take you to see him.

Arctus? Ah - this is great, I really want to see him sooner. Augustus didn't want to meet his brother.

Warfield then ordered his new adjutant, a gunnery sergeant, to temporarily lead the 1st Company and let them continue these established tasks.

Augustus was still driving this time, and his relationship with Warfield was now quite good. Because of his elder brother's relationship, Warfield actually regarded Augustus as his younger brother, and he also liked the young man's strength and courage.

In Warfield's view, Augustus was very smart, and the most valuable thing was that he used this smartness in the right direction, and his character of being considerate and caring for others was indeed very likable.

In some ways, Augustus was much like his brother.

An hour later, Augustus drove Warfield's Saber command vehicle into an area of ​​skyscrapers that were dozens or hundreds of stories high. Outside the skyscrapers, there were lower buildings with a wide view.

This area used to be the largest stadium in Poker Pride, next to the amusement park, zoo and citizen square. About a regiment of engineers are using space construction engineering vehicles to build rows and rows of layout on the bulldozed open land. Organized modular camp dormitories.

The Saber command vehicle drove into the rows of skyscrapers, and there was still a tall building with lights on in the center of this high-rise area.

Although the skyscraper is not brightly lit, bright lights can be seen on some floors where the glass is still intact. This shows that there should be a gas generator in the underground garage of the skyscraper, and the laid wires are buried underground.

Outside the skyscraper, roadblocks and checkpoints were set up within 500 yards, and at least one platoon of 33rd Ground Assault Division Marines guarded the skyscraper.

All the Marines said nothing, holding gauss rifles in their hands and looking straight ahead. Some scratches can be seen vaguely on the silver-gray power armor of these marines, like scars left after long scratches that are deep enough to be seen in the bone have scabbed over. That was after the power armor was severely damaged and repaired, and new layers of paint were applied over and over again in an attempt to cover up the traces of the wounds.

Although this obviously violates Article 144 of the Power Armor Modification and Maintenance Regulations, in addition to the original logo of the 33rd Ground Assault Division, some people's power armor also has other exquisite or scrawled personal graffiti and spray paint. Usually it is some part of the wolf's body, a claw, eye or fang. Some people's graffiti is even wilder, showing a wolf skeleton with white bones or a naked beauty.

This means that these people are either veterans who leave these traces to show that they have experienced hundreds of battles, or they are local planetary defense forces that cannot even supply power armor and can only mend it for another three years - these edge worlds Garrison often refers to himself as a stepmother, or a combination of both.

There are no rank marks on the power armor of these guards. They stand still like statues, like stone lions in front of a temple.

Thank you to Atago for being the one you love. I will always like Sluokai. I am lonely. I am a monthly pass for the cute new rabbit. Thank you to Agent Rongrong for the reward.
