Chapter 1490: Chapter 845: No Real Difference (Part 2)
The highest Commander of the Green Skin Orcs on Syfeng Star, a Military Governor, gathered the strongest wave of forces available to him and launched a fierce surprise counterattack from the flank while the human forces were conventionally capturing an anti-orbital stronghold.
They temporarily succeeded, preventing the loss of the position. However, an Ironfist Ambassador regiment defending on-site, in cooperation with the Alliance Army, held fast without retreat.
Human main forces quickly mobilized and launched a destructive assault while friendly troops held off the main forces of the Beastman Overlord.
…
Iron-gray armored units sped across the scorched earth with the roar of the Blast Bomb Guns shaking Bach’er’s eardrums. He watched as Ironfist Ambassador Warriors formed a battle formation and steadily advanced. Someone wielding a heavy shield coated with Ceramic Steel withstood firepower, serving as a moving cover, while simultaneously holding a Heavy Bomb Gun, which was mounted on a small notch on the top right of the shield, shooting ahead.
The Alliance Army soldiers accompanied the Interstellar Warriors leading the forefront, assisting in the battle against the Green Skins.
The Green Skin Orc lads were at a complete disadvantage in the firepower confrontation. Even the Berserkers among them, who wanted to charge forward with howls to engage in brutal melee with humans, found it difficult to even get close.
Green Skins’ heavy units were also trapped under powerful firepower blockades.
The Green Skin’s Ancient Gogor War Beast, heavy trucks, and even the King Kong Giants failed to have a decisive impact on the battle.
These units became the top-priority targets as soon as they appeared on the battlefield.
The Alliance Army’s armored units and artillery units, guided by the frontline infantry, were responsible for the first wave of concentrated fire attacks. However, relying solely on the army’s artillery and heavy vehicles was insufficient to rapidly eliminate these high-threat units among the Green Skins.
The Ironfist Ambassador’s Interstellar Warriors were responsible for the second wave of precision strikes.
Behind the heavy shield bearers, were the ’Terminators,’ missile nest carriers or heavy firepower handlers equipped with handheld Thermite Cannons. Beside them, Mortal Auxiliary Army supply trucks often accompanied them, and the professional combat servants within the Battle Group quickly helped the heavy firepower handlers replace used missiles, thermite energy canisters, and equip new ones.
Thermite Cannons shattered the engines of Green Skin Trucks, with exploding metal shards piercing the Beastman hordes like torrential rain.
More importantly, at a distance of tens of kilometers away, Ironfist Ambassador’s artillery operated specialized precision artillery linked with Power Armor to provide long-range support. Their artillery skills were much superior to those of the Alliance Army’s artillery, especially in coordination with Combat Brothers on the frontline, working together almost as one.
Bach’er watched, feeling delighted.
This was the style of Ironfist Ambassador, a familiar sight in his memory.
The iron-like advance was superficial; beneath this exterior, the Brother Battle Group’s mastery of artillery application, firepower arrangement, and infantry coordination management was even more refined.
However, such spectacles were rare in Ironfist Ambassador’s past—they excelled in it yet seldom used it. The ultimate reason was that during the Battle Group’s decline, they had insufficient troops to conduct iron flood advances, and the firepower they wielded was not abundant.
This strategy was meant to crush enemy defenses straightforwardly, requiring sufficient manpower and firepower to destroy the enemy completely without any tricks. But under Ironfist Ambassador’s later circumstances, they were not allowed to use this tactic. Otherwise, even if they won, continually dealing with tough challenges would deplete their already modest resources.
But with the Alliance’s support, there’s no need to worry about such things. Ironfist Ambassador, meticulously skilled in frontal assault and inheriting the excellent legacy of the Punisher, could once again shine.
On Syfeng Star, Bach’er has witnessed this scene over and over again. With the full deployment of nearly a thousand fully-equipped warriors and all the heavy equipment they need, Ironfist Ambassador undoubtedly became the main force.
In previous experiences of two Battle Groups fighting side by side, the Steel Bone Butcher, which often played the main force role, became truly a supporting character this time.
Bach’er felt tears in his eyes, partly happy and sentimental for the Brother Battle Group, finally able to see their splendid form again, alleviating previous concerns; and partly feeling embarrassed for his own Battle Group now only able to deploy about two hundred people, finding themselves reversed in status.
Nonetheless, the Steel Bone Butcher also had their value.
Although both shared the same lineage, Steel Bone Butcher inherited a different aspect of the Punisher’s bloodline. They possessed an iron-like will but were even more violent and ferocious. Compared to Ironfist Ambassador’s skillful ironwall-like advance coupled with powerful artillery baptisms, Steel Bone Butchers were more like a heavy and valiant Beheading Axe.
When both Battle Groups were in cooperation, each other’s strengths were magnified!
Steel Bone Butcher no longer needed to worry about overzealous charges and what to do afterward; they believed the Brother Battle Group would secure the best retreat paths for them and could block the iron walls along the bloody routes they carved out, furthermore trusting their Brother Battle Group’s precision artillery to make timely strikes wherever they needed support.
