With the war going on for half a day, the Stinger's side was in shambles.
The psyker in charge of communication will report the battle situation from the front, and the stinger processes this information in the brain, trying to restore the current battlefield situation as much as possible.
Then Stinger only had one impression of this war.
confusion.
The retreating troops had no effect in covering each other. The enemy seemed to be everywhere, and the troops were too busy to take care of themselves. Some even confused the direction of retreat, rushing in the direction of the blocked passage in a panic.
Stinger really wanted to mobilize four or five regiments to organize defenses on the spot, at least to open a way for his cronies to evacuate safely, but this was simply impossible.
Enemies may appear in front of or behind them, and may disappear after a round of volleys. Even a large group of enemies may appear in the center of several nearby regiments, knock them into a daze and then run away. The defenses established by those regiments are useless.
Stinger didn't have much time to adjust his deployment, because he encountered more urgent matters.
"My lord, we must deal with the enemy's artillery immediately. By the time I report to you, thousands of people may have been blown up!" A psyker turned his head to look at Stinger, urging him to react quickly.
Stinger rubbed his head, quickly came up with a countermeasure, and picked up the communicator: "Ayrin, I need you to immediately lead your mobile troops to the location where the enemy artillery appeared. The location is just north of No.12 area, only 1000 meters away from your location."
Ayrin was the commander of a mobile regiment in the planetary defense team of Tyrone II. His subordinates didn't use their legs to travel, and all of them rode in centaur personnel carriers.
Originally, Tyrone's Planetary Defense Force would not have such divisions as mobile units, but the Stinger and the Governor like to use tricks in war, and they just needed a unit that could quickly execute their strategies, so the mobile unit built with a lot of money was born.
"I've already seen those cannons." Ayrin's voice sounded through the communicator. He didn't have spiritual powers. "These cannons are deployed outside the city. No one operates them, but they can still fire."
"I don't care what the enemy's artillery looks like. I only care about whether you can deal with them. Get the hell out of here, I'm watching you." Stinger ordered coldly.
The stinger wasn't meant to scare Arryn.With the blessing of the Lord of Wisdom, he could really see Ayrin's every move.
Ayrin didn't have any intention of disobeying orders, he and his mobile regiment ran all the way towards the position of the artillery.
However, those unmanned cannons didn't know whether they didn't notice Ayrin, they still didn't care, and continued to pour firepower towards the distant battlefield.
Ayrin's soldiers turned their heads and couldn't help looking at the bombed location.
Because the distance is too far, people can't be seen clearly, but the flashes and gunpowder smoke produced by the violent explosion can be seen clearly.
Stinger speculated from past experience that at least half of the regiment would be blown up after this round of bombardment, especially in the current chaotic situation, the bombardment is more effective in killing troops who cannot find cover.
"Don't teleport, don't teleport, don't teleport..." Stinger heard Ayrin say as if praying, obviously he had encountered the situation where the target teleported away before.
Fortunately, the distance of 1000 meters was very short for the soldiers led by Aylin, and it took them less than a minute to get close to a position where they could fire.
"Fire!" Ayrin growled and ordered.
After an order was issued, the centaur personnel carrier that Ayrin was riding on exploded on the spot, and the debris of the wreckage flew into the sky.
This sudden attack caught the attention of others, and all the soldiers in the regiment had to give up the artillery in front of them and turn their heads to deal with another group of enemies.
"When did these bastards show up?" Stinger gritted his teeth. He saw a whole regiment of enemies behind the mobile regiment.
They were not even on their way, they were in a fighting state when they appeared, all the Leman Ruth tanks lined up, the infantry wearing power armor used the tanks as cover, their commander leaned out half of the body from the turret, raised a laser pistol and roared loudly, and in front of them there was an unidentified drone floating in mid-air.
On the other hand, Ayrin's mobile regiment only started to turn around after being attacked suddenly. At this time, the enemy had already launched a second round of attacks.
The personnel carrier was destroyed by the tank, and the infantry who rushed out of the vehicle were concentrated fire.
Some skilled pilots veer on the spot to make sure the heavy stump guns or heavy bolters on the APC are angled to reach the enemy, but it doesn't help.
All solid bullets were crushed when they flew under the drone, and only the beams from the laser rifles of other infantrymen could hit them, but they basically hit the tank armor.
"They're dead." Stinger opened his eyes, a little numb.
Stinger likes war very much, not because he can cut people, but because he can use his strategy and the gift he got from the Lord of Wisdom, but now this war only brings him anger and unwillingness.
Although it was considered before the war that the enemy might use teleportation technology to fight, but they didn't know how to fight, and these vanguard troops were used for testing.
But the test results were far beyond expectations.
This teleportation technology is a bit too stable, and it is different from what I have seen in other places before.
"The mobile regiment is gone." Another psyker reported to Stinger, and waited for his reaction to the news, to see what the marshal's favorite unit would look like without it.
But Stinger didn't respond. He just murmured, "I was wrong from the beginning. I shouldn't have let them retreat."
"No no no no."
"If you don't retreat, it's no different from staying in place and waiting to die. Those teleported enemy troops can easily do things that can't be done in normal warfare, that is, flanking front and back."
"A dead end, it really is a dead end."
"This war was all a mistake. I shouldn't have listened to the governor to start the war... No, no."
"At least we now know how the enemy fights, so these sacrifices are totally worth it, otherwise we wouldn't even have the opportunity to discuss countermeasures."
Stinger kept talking to himself like crazy.
"Haha." The psykers present burst into laughter, they liked to see Stinger deflated.
If there are outsiders present at this time, you will find that these people do not seem to be in the relationship between superiors and subordinates at all, and even everyone looks very busy on the surface, but the order of the stinger is not always conveyed.
"The ceremony is ready."
When Stinger became more and more depressed, he finally heard the good news, so he immediately got up and walked out of the building to the square outside.
