Chapter 165 The Art of War of the Iron Warriors

"I need enough cannon fodder, enough"

Perturabo looks down on the combat robot b1, but the production capacity of the bx combat robot is too small. There are less than 10 units now. The main force in combat robots is still the b1.

"Honso, prepare enough cannon fodder for me."

Perturabo picked up a stack of books and locked himself in a room. He needed enough knowledge about the imperial ordnance.

"Tell Perturabo what else he needs and I will support him."

Yang Cheng is very fond of Perturabo, the Primarch. Besides Angron, he is the biggest combat power on his side, and Perturabo has the potential to form an army alone.

Angron is currently following the First Expeditionary Fleet, but Perturabo is different. Yang Cheng wants to build a fleet with Perturabo as the center to attack the city.

..............................

A few days later, Perturabo successfully read all the information, ranging from the tactical knife of an ordinary soldier to the Death Star currently being fought. Perturabo basically understood it. Now he is organizing his own legion. It's time.

The first is the recruitment world, which is currently tentatively located on Olympus. The planets in the entire sector are surrounded by Perturabo. It includes 100 habitable planets, 15 garden worlds, 60 death worlds, plus 2 The most important thing is to cast the world.

The Iron Warriors will definitely need the help of oil guys to build war machines in the future, and the presence of the Forge World in the Olympus Sector will undoubtedly take the Iron Warriors' logistics to a higher level.

And these more than 100 planets have all become recruiting worlds, and countless space warriors will be born on these planets in the future.

This is the tentative scope of the Olympus Sector, and Yang Cheng is absolutely assured of Perturabo.

"Support weapons, and enough warships! Artillery! Heavy artillery! Hurry up on these."

After research, Perturabo was successfully led astray. He didn't want to take a look at Star Destroyers. Now he was very interested in various battleships in Warhammer. Firepower was the best.

Soon these requests were handed over to Yang Cheng, who left the matter to General Kalbo Foundry.

Now that the equipment part is done, the next step is the cannon fodder.

The previously established alien auxiliary army was also assigned to Perturabo. One million cannon fodder soldiers were enough for the Iron Warriors for a while.

Next is the time for testing. The Fourth Expeditionary Fleet selected a planet that was transformed into a fortress. This planet is the base of a rogue fleet in the Central Ring. Now hundreds of thousands of mercenaries and armed personnel of the rogue fleet are shrinking. Among them, the entire planet is equipped with 9 energy shield transmitters.

"With the Death Star?"

Frix stood next to Perturabo and asked. Under such circumstances, the empire would choose to abandon the planet and implement an extermination order or a Death Star.

"This planet is very suitable as a fortress world, no need"

Perturabo went out in person this time. He wanted to personally experience the thrill of demolishing the enemy's bunker.

"attack!"

After several rounds of bombings overloaded the enemy's shield generator, Perturabo personally led people to conduct airborne operations. According to Perturabo's strategic concept, in addition to airdropping Space Marines, this siege also had enough Vehicles and various fire support equipment were also airdropped for backup.

"For the Emperor!!!"

"Heart is like steel! Steel inside and out!"

Perturabo entered the battlefield wearing power armor modified by several great sages of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Holding a power hammer named "Force Breaker", Perturabo's armor is equipped with weapons beyond any Dreadnought. In addition to a small void shield, the firepower he carries can even Destroy a knight mecha in the blink of an eye.

With Perturabo as the center, a dozen space warriors wearing Terminator armor began to suppress fire. They cleared out the enemy's deployed troops in a short time, but the remaining enemies on the planet were still rushing in. Come.

"Build a position on the spot!"

Perturabo's voice echoed through the helmets of every Space Marine.

Several Krieger artillery regiments also began to cooperate in the battle.

"Little guys, set up your artillery positions. I need you to provide enough firepower output."

Perturabo began to fall in love with these soldiers wearing gas masks and waterproof windbreakers. Although they were usually quiet, they were very useful at critical moments, and they were also good at digging trenches.

"The enemy's armored forces are coming"

"Start the attack!"

The already prepared Space Marines of the Iron Warriors Legion began to direct all kinds of firepower at the enemy.

The ground-shaking cannon of the Krieg Artillery Regiment began to bombard, and each shot could easily destroy an enemy tank. Under the terrifying bombardment, the enemy's corpses danced in the sky, and various organs mixed with pieces of meat were scattered on the ground.

After the bombardment came the advance. Under Perturabo's order, more than 100 Space Marines began to charge.

Three Predator tanks began to advance. The Predator tank is a derivative of the Rhino chassis. It is equipped with armor and heavy firepower, and can even carry infantry. Its primary function is to provide covering fire for the Space Marines.

Predator tanks have been in service since the Dark Age of Technology, when they were the main battle tanks of all human combat forces.

Its original purpose was to deal with a group of bloodthirsty war aliens-the Orcs.

Humanity was very troubled by the Orks charging around aimlessly, so they needed to find a new tactic and weapon to deal with the Orks, and the Predator Tank was born.

The Predator tank with extra armor was able to withstand all Ork weapons at the time, while the crude equipment of the Barbarians was unable to withstand the firepower of autocannons and heavy bolters.

This improvement has demonstrated its reliability over time. In the original model, it was possible to carry small groups of troops, but this feature was removed during the Great Crusade in favor of more powerful and sustained firepower. This fully combat-capable destroyer eventually became the standard model thereafter.

The Predator tank armor has three layers of armor. The inner armor is the main protective layer. The ceramic/alloy material of this layer can provide the same protection as an iron plate five times its thickness, but is lighter. The second layer is an insulating fiber layer that provides high thermal energy and radiation protection. The outermost layer is a non-metallic acrylic coating. In addition, the front armor also comes with 200mm conventional iron armor.

The turret of the Mars Destroyer Predator tank is equipped with a "Quicksand" automatic feeding cannon, a coaxial flash sight and an automatic ejection device.

The weapon is calibrated online by a multispectral remote-controlled sighting server, and aiming and firing is controlled by the commander, who is also the vehicle's gunner.

Looking at the Space Marine tank that was several times larger than our own, where had these soldiers from the wandering fleet ever fought against such a thing? One after another, they threw off their armor and ran towards the last fortress on the planet.

Next is the siege battle that the Iron Warriors are most familiar with.
