Chapter 266: Separation

~7 min read 1,254 words

"Officer, we have discovered the place mentioned in the intelligence where the Alien is imprisoning Humans ahead; please give your orders!"

A Krieg Cavalry company followed the direction of the surrounding Krieg soldiers, found the Watch Sergeant and the Krieg Commissar, stopped before them, and saluted the Watch Sergeant.

Upon hearing this, the Watch Sergeant nodded and replied.

"Soldier, I know you want to serve the Emperor with loyalty, but the Emperor hopes we can perform better. Have the soldiers stand by; I will go talk to those two Humans sent by the Emperor."

"Yes!"

Seeing the Watch Sergeant riding a Biochemical Warhorse to intercept the Cadian Shock Troops' Chimera Armored Vehicle, and fearing that unnecessary conflict between the two sides might affect the Emperor's Task, the Krieg Commissar quickly followed the Watch Sergeant.

The Watch Sergeant blocked the Cadian Shock Troops' Chimera Armored Vehicle and said in a stiff tone, "I want to see your Commander. Where is he?"

Soon, a Cadian Lieutenant stepped out of the passenger cabin of a Chimera Armored Vehicle. He looked at the Watch Sergeant of the Death Korps of Krieg and asked in a serious tone.

"What do you want with me?"

"I want to see the two soldiers sent by the Emperor. Let them come out!"

Seeing that the Cadian Lieutenant's expression was somewhat off, the Krieg Commissar immediately came to the Watch Sergeant's side and said to the Cadian Lieutenant over there.

"Our cavalry discovered a place ahead where it is suspected that the Alien is imprisoning Humans. We want them to come out and confirm it; everything is for the Emperor."

Seeing this, the Cadian Lieutenant went to the Chimera Armored Vehicle where Li Wei and Jiang Zhenggang were located, and the Cadian Sergeant inside brought Li Wei and Jiang Zhenggang out of the Chimera Armored Vehicle.

"We have discovered an area ahead where it is suspected that the Alien is imprisoning Humans. We need you to confirm it. If it is the place the Emperor spoke of, then we shall prepare to begin the operation."

Li Wei and Jiang Zhenggang looked around, came to the front of the Cadian Shock Troops, and glanced at the two officers riding the Biochemical Warhorses.

"How is it? Can you feel the mark we left here back then?"

Jiang Zhenggang asked Li Wei. Li Wei remained in Silence for about two minutes, then finally nodded and said.

"Yes, the mark I left is right ahead!" After hearing this, the Cadian Lieutenant standing beside him said to the Watch Sergeant and the Krieg Commissar riding the Biochemical Warhorses.

"It is here. But before that, I think we need a clear division of labor; this will increase efficiency significantly and allow us to save more Humans."

"That is your business; our orders are to eliminate the Alien!"

The Watch Sergeant directly rejected the Cadian Lieutenant's suggestion, but after the Krieg Commissar beside him communicated briefly with the Sergeant again, the Watch Sergeant spoke to the Cadian Lieutenant once more.

"Then let's keep it simple. For the Emperor."

Seeing that the Watch Sergeant was not being stubborn, the Krieg Commissar breathed a long sigh of relief.

The Cadian Lieutenant then had the Cadian Sergeant beside him call over the commander of the Vitrian Dragoons from the rear.

After a brief analysis, since it was already late, the Cadian Lieutenant wanted the Vitrian Dragoons to infiltrate the area where the Alien was imprisoning Humans, gather the Human survivors inside, and bring them to the area cleared for them by the Cadian Shock Troops.

On the other side, the Death Korps of Krieg would be responsible for drawing the Alien's attacks, making the infiltration of the Vitrian Dragoons smoother.

After the Death Korps of Krieg drew the Alien's attention, the Cadian Shock Troops would dispatch several infantry units to enter that area to help the Vitrian Dragoons evacuate the Human survivors inside, while the remaining infantry would follow the armored units to provide cover on the perimeter for the infantry entering the area and clear out an open space for the subsequent arrival of Transport Aircraft to have a landing spot.

Upon learning of his mission, the Viterian Sergeant said to the Cadian Lieutenant and the Watch Sergeant.

"The Vitrian Dragoons will certainly complete the mission and not fail the Emperor's trust. For the Emperor!"

"Of course, for the Emperor!"

"... For the Emperor!"

Soon, the Viterian Sergeant divided the Vitrian Dragoons into 30 squads, with 20 people per squad.

"Do not fail the Emperor's trust; let the epic of the Vitrian Dragoons begin to be written at this moment! For the Emperor! Move out!"

One could see the Vitrian Dragoons rotating the buttons on their waists, and their originally black scale armor became even darker, blending into the surrounding darkness.

Soon, the 30 squads of Vitrian Dragoons disappeared into the night.

At the same time, the Watch Sergeant and the Krieg Commissar rode their Biochemical Warhorses to the position where the Krieg soldiers were standing by. At the Watch Sergeant's signal, the Krieg Commissar cleared his throat and said in a sonorous and forceful tone.

"We need to build a simple defensive line ahead to deal with the Alien's attacks and help our allies buy more time! Fulfill the Emperor's will! Now, advance at full speed; once you reach the designated position, begin building the defensive line!"

The Krieg soldiers began to jog forward, the Basilisk Self-propelled Artillery also began to move, and the entire Death Korps of Krieg began to advance rapidly toward the position previously scouted by the Krieg Cavalry.

The Cadian Lieutenant said to Li Wei and Jiang Zhenggang beside him, "Since we have already found the area where the Alien is imprisoning Humans, your mission is complete. When the time comes, just follow those Human survivors and leave on the Transport Aircraft."

Li Wei and Jiang Zhenggang were brought back into the Chimera Armored Vehicle and sat in their respective seats. Li Wei said to Jiang Zhenggang with a somewhat complex tone.

"Sometimes, I really admire these soldiers summoned by the Commander. Although they haven't Awakened a Back Spirit, their will to fight is even stronger than ours. The Emperor they speak of should be the Commander's Back Spirit, right?"

"It should be. The Commander's Back Spirit also appeared for the first time, and there was no record of it in the database before. I just don't know how many soldiers and how many different types of soldiers the Commander can summon."

Feeling the speed of the Chimera Armored Vehicle increase significantly, Jiang Zhenggang looked at the Cadian soldiers on the Chimera Armored Vehicle who had organized their equipment and were holding their weapons in their hands, and suddenly asked Li Wei this question.

"By the way, Li Wei, what do you think those weapons in their hands are? I heard before that the weapons used by the soldiers summoned by the Commander emit a beam of light, and the enemy on the other side is killed. I don't know if it's true."

Hearing Jiang Zhenggang say this, Li Wei also looked at the weapons in the hands of these Cadian soldiers and said to Jiang Zhenggang in a low voice.

"I think it should be true. After all, this rumor has been circulating since before Commander Yingzhou took office, and many people have seen it. We will know in a while; no need to guess."

"That's true. I hope I can survive and go back this time."
