Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes.

Chapter 244 The Battle That Started Suddenly - Priestley
The shock caused by the purge within the Grand Fleet is the same as these evaluations of Calvin.

As the war progressed, they gradually left the focus of people's sight and gradually settled in the memory.

After the aftermath of a fierce chastisement dissipated, only Calvin's authority was re-established.

After the high-level people figured out something, the cooperation of various departments under the Grand Army became smoother.

The reserved emergency mechanism submitted by various departments to the command site of the headquarters for record, and the redundant reserved mechanism that has become popular in middle-level positions;

All make the cooperation of the entire legion more tacit and efficient.

A good chemical reaction is finally reflected in the offensive of the large army, that is, the entire army can provide enough room for fault tolerance for the large fleet in front while ensuring the attack strength.

The Grand Fleet is on the eve of arriving at the final battle target - the Priestley galaxy.

After at least three evacuation plans were deployed, they were sent to the hands of the forward fleet admiral Juan.

And Juan was also pleasantly surprised to see these densely marked marks on the star map to distinguish which of these line nodes are used to replenish supplies and which are used to replenish personnel.

The victory has not been counted, but the retreat has come; before the fleet soldiers and horses arrive, the food and grass for rear support have already been put in place first.

Juan was used to fighting the enemy in a never-ending wrangling and bickering with the rear.

When such a happy treatment came to the most important battle in his life, he actually became a little worried about gains and losses.

Calvin also quickened his pace at this time, the Gray Knights were adapting to the Imperial Political Commissar joining the battle sequence, and the powerful firepower of the Psionic Titan had surprised them;

And Calvin's psychic network strengthened by the Titan-level amplification matrix is ​​more than enough to support continent-level battlefield scheduling.

The warships in orbit and the troops on the ground have all joined this brand-new war system. The air-ground integrated strike system with close to zero delay is starting a tentative joint deduction centered on the Imperial Political Commissar.

The pace of the fleet also began to tighten. Under Calvin's order, the second strike group assembled and set off half a day in advance.

The Astartes fleet with the Revenant Redeemer as its flagship was only less than half a day behind the Grand Fleet in the subspace voyage.

This is the latest adjustment to the battle plan by the High Command:
Considering the possible existence of the orc battle moon, once the large fleet is confirmed, there is no effective means of attacking this kind of target.

Then the second strike group will use the interstellar fortress Raptor King as a shield to launch a brutal gang battle against this celestial-level combat unit.

As a suppressive force against the orc surface armored forces, the Titan Legion will also participate in this operation.

This is an attack that may be carried out at the same time as a naval battle and a landing operation, and it is also the largest force that Orpheus can use.

The battle began in the early hours of the tenth day when the Grand Fleet left Worcester;
The first strike group headed by Juan discovered the main force of the orc fleet concentrated in the Priestley galaxy as soon as it arrived at the outskirts of the Priestley galaxy.

Without much thought, the fleet is obliged to support the portal of the battlefield for the follow-up friendly forces before the follow-up troops arrive;
Under the roar of the entire fleet headed by Admiral Juan, they shouted the name of the emperor to charge the orc fleet!
The moment the battle started, it entered the most tragic exchange stage.

The large fleet split up and fired at the planetary defense systems on both wings, facing the large orbital anti-aircraft artillery fire, and suppressing and shooting these defense nodes with light spears and torpedoes.

After the barriers on the two wings were supported, the main force of the fleet in the center also became entangled with the orcs who came from the galaxy.

A huge wave in the subspace began to surge, and the anger and bloodiness brought about by the power of war, like a tsunami, violently stirred on the side of the subspace of this planet.

Calvin, who was half a day away, also felt the turbulent tide in front of him. He immediately led the second strike group against the tide ahead, and forcibly jumped into the real space.

The huge keel groans and the distorted sound of Geiger's position resounded in the battleship, and all members of the fleet were on standby, preparing for the worst possible eventuality.

With the grace of the Emperor, this risky leap was finally made.

Apart from damage to the engines of two cruisers, there was no extensive damage to the remaining main body of the fleet.

The fleet jumped out from the space on the edge of the interstellar, and as soon as it appeared on the stage, it shocked the two sides fighting on the battlefield.

The King of Birds of Prey uses this sudden violence to the extreme:
Relying on its powerful position shield system and huge mass, it directly smashed the defensive orbital space station on the left side of the fleet with its aggressive positioning!
Countless fragments and figures of orcs are like sesame seeds sprinkled in the space. In the colorful rays and low temperature in the universe, these tiny black spots quickly fall into silence.

The follow-up strike cruiser did not waste its efforts, the dazzling nova cannon on the bow, and the buildings that almost touched the orbits spit out the roar from the empire.

A large number of imperial fighters of various types, including Dagger, Lightning, and Thunder, flew out from the wing decks of battleships and cruisers;

After a brief cruising formation, they bombarded the large pedestal weapons on the planet with a near-suicide strike.

The raindrop-like airdrop pods, with various automatic fire base weapons, became the first wave of strikes that descended on these planets;

And before the rain of death landed on the surface, the Astartes, who represented the top of the empire's armed forces, also forcibly landed on the ground in the second wave of airdrop pods!
The special transport ships of the Titan Legion also joined in, and their shields broke after only a few minutes;
The bottom deck, which was forged in one piece with thick fine gold, was constantly flickering under the hot melting and plasma fireworks under the frenzied shooting of the orcs on the ground.

As the strike cruisers merged into orbit, the broadside macro artillery strikes began to throw devastating flames on the ground.

The interstellar warriors assembled on the great plain began to charge towards the oncoming orcs against the backdrop of the giant body of the Titan Legion deeply inserted into the soil on the ground behind them!
Thick bombs shot out like raindrops, pouring towards the legions representing the two races;

The ancient giant garbage and the titan took the earth-shaking steps, and with a close distance of more than ten kilometers apart, they roared at each other and spewed plasma heat and flames!
The atmosphere of the planet is blackened by the gunpowder smoke of the battlefield. From the perspective of the entire battlefield, the tiny sesame-like space fighters are colliding with the equally tiny orcs, forming strips at each strategic point to represent the battle. thin line.

There are not many orbital weapons left on the ground, but the few remaining are still roaring towards the sky.

And at the end of the cloudy sky, laser beams as thick as a Titan's waist continued to rain down like a natural disaster!
