Warhammer: From the Devouring C'tan Fragments

Marshal Lek looked at the battle report sent back from the front line. The hive world could no longer stop the invasion of the green-skinned orc army. Lek's originally upright posture gradually became hunched.

Marshal Lek looked at the intelligence officer beside him and asked bitterly, "We have already failed. Is it impossible to save the situation?"

The intelligence officer also lowered his head and said sadly: "Marshal, we have failed. We are no longer able to stop the invasion of the green-skinned orcs."

The entire command center hall was plunged into pessimism, and no one had any confidence that they could still stop the invasion of the green-skinned orcs.

Marshal Lek whispered to the intelligence officer beside him, "Still haven't contacted the Governor?"

The intelligence officer shook his head and whispered, "We haven't been able to contact the Governor-General. Ever since he sent you the military order, we haven't been able to contact him."

Marshal Lek heard the intelligence officer's answer. Although he had expected it, he did not expect the Governor to run so fast. There were still three green-skinned orc warships parked in the starry sky.

It is impossible to fly out of the planet, which means that the Governor is still hiding in the hive world, but the Governor does not come out to take charge of the situation, which makes Marshal Lek helpless.

The intelligence officer looked at Marshal Lek who had fallen silent and asked cautiously, "Sir, was the Governor killed?"

When Marshal Lek heard the intelligence officer's question, he just shook his head and did not answer. When the intelligence officer saw Marshal Lek's actions, he knew in his heart that the Governor had already gone into hiding.

Marshal Lek looked at the surviving staff and technical officers in the hall and said loudly, "You go and lead the surviving soldiers in the hive city. Continue to fight the green-skinned orcs and hold out until the imperial reinforcements arrive."

When the officers in the command center heard the order from the marshal, they stood up and shouted, "Yes, sir."

After saying this, the officers strode out of the command center and went to various places in the hive city.

The intelligence officer looked at the officers who were leaving, looked at Marshal Lek in confusion and asked, "They have all left, where are you, Marshal?"

"I?"

Marshal Lek looked at the intelligence officer dejectedly, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say. He just waved his hand at the intelligence officer and said nothing more.

The intelligence officer turned around helplessly and walked out the door.

Marshal Lek thought that because of his own wrong decision, the hive world had lost tens of millions of troops and countless war supplies, and the accumulation of decades of the entire hive world had been consumed.

After the Empire recaptures the Hive World, these losses will definitely be counted on their heads by the Governor and other nobles. Their families are simply unable to bear such heavy losses. Of course, all this can only be done after the Empire's reinforcements arrive and defeat the orcs.

Thinking of these terrible situations, Marshal Lek could no longer think about it. With a trembling right hand, he pulled out the laser pistol from his waist, pointed it at his head and pulled the trigger.

"puff"

The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground was heard in the hall. The intelligence officer who was still walking out the door heard the noise, turned around and looked back to see Marshal Lek lying dead on the ground.

The intelligence officer looked at Marshal Lek, who had already committed suicide, but his heart remained calm. He mechanically drew his pistol and muttered, "Marshal, I'm here to accompany you."

"boom"

The entire command hall fell silent.

The soldiers of the hive world fled in panic, with the green-skinned orc army chasing them closely behind. The human soldiers fled into the lower hive and escaped the green-skinned orcs' pursuit in the chaotic lower hive buildings.

After the green-skinned orc army entered the lower nest of the hive city, they gradually dispersed. The lower nest is the largest place in the entire hive world. The lower nest is full of factories and gathering places for poor people. The most numerous people in the lower nest are gang members.

The gang is responsible for managing the poor people and weapons production in the lower nest. The large amount of taxes collected in the lower nest must be handed over to the upper nobles so that the gang can continue to survive.

The consequence of not paying taxes is being wiped out by the private armies sent by the upper nobles. The nobles' private armies are better equipped and better trained than the soldiers of the hive defense force. Gang members basically have no ability to resist the nobles' private armies.

The environment in the lower nest is slightly better than that in the bottom nest. At least after completing work every day, you can get a little food to fill your stomach.

When the green-skinned orc army broke into the Lower Nest, the already chaotic Lower Nest became even more chaotic, and the entire Lower Nest was filled with the sounds of fierce gunfire.

When the gang members' territory was attacked by green-skinned orcs, these gang members also launched a fearless counterattack against the greenskins. It does not mean that the gang members are more aware than the planetary defense forces of the hive world.

The territory occupied by each gang member is their hope of survival. Without territory, there will be no food and water, which forces gang members to fight desperately against the invasion of the green-skinned orcs.

A large amount of firepower was deployed on a street occupied by gang members. Heavy firepower weapons such as lumberjacks occupied the commanding heights, causing heavy casualties to the green-skinned orcs that appeared in the field of vision.

"WAAAAAAHG"

"Boys, there's more fun ahead, follow me."

A green-skinned orc boss looked at the large number of green-skinned boys falling in front of him, and couldn't help but yell excitedly to his men.

"WAAAAAAHG"

The greenskin boss responded with even louder roars.

The green-skinned orcs, along with a large number of green-skinned boys, attacked the streets occupied by the gang members.

“Da da da da”

The green-skinned orcs were responded to with even more intense gunfire. The green-skinned orcs' numerical advantage could not be brought into play in the narrow streets. Whenever the green-skinned orcs rushed forward in large numbers, they would be repelled by the heavy firepower deployed by the gang members on the commanding heights.

"The fighting power of these shrimps is very strong. They can actually withstand our attack."

A green-skinned boss who was over three meters tall rubbed his chin and muttered after watching the green-skinned boys' third attack being repelled by humans.

"Boss, these shrimps are really strong."

A fart spirit was standing on the shoulder of the green-skinned orc boss. When he heard the green-skinned orc boss's praise, he quickly echoed it.

The green-skinned orcs do not think that it is shameful for humans to occupy a geographical location and to repel the attacks of their own brothers. For the greenskins, as long as there is a war to fight, it is enough.

The green-skinned boss turned his head and looked at the little fart kid standing on his shoulder and asked, "You have a lot of ideas, do you have any good ideas?"

The fart spirit touched his pointed chin, thought for a few seconds and then said, "Boss, we still have a lot of jumping dogs. Let them join the battle. They will definitely bring you surprises."

The green-skinned boss thought about it and agreed with the fart spirit's suggestion.

After getting the boss's consent, the fart spirit jumped off the boss's shoulder and ran behind the greenskins.
