Warhammer 40: Saviors Emerging from the Bottom

With dozens of transport ships operating simultaneously, their presence was too conspicuous to escape the Greenskins' detection.

Xiao Yi and his team were well aware of this, so in terms of tactical arrangements, they never considered how to conceal themselves.

If you eliminate all the attacking greenskins, they can also land safely.

So when countless green-skinned pilots, flying handcrafted aircraft that resembled those from World War I, launched a surprise attack on the landing convoy, no one panicked.

All the battlecruiser captains took their positions as rehearsed previously.

Xiao Yi's hastily assembled flight team was also ready to go, prepared to compete with these green-skinned people who had learned flying skills from who-knows-where.

"Waaagh! Crush these shrimp!"

Compared to the transport ship, all the green-skinned people flying inferior fighter jets were not even as good as flies, but even so, they were still fearless, increased their speed to the maximum, and rushed straight past.

The machine guns spewed fire, creating bursts of sparks, but this level of attack was simply insufficient to penetrate the outermost armor of the transport ship.

However, some stubborn greenskins continued to waste bullets, convinced that the reason they couldn't break through the enemy's armor was because they hadn't fired enough bullets!

Unfortunately, even after emptying their magazines, they were unable to create a breach in the transport ship.

The green-skinned flying boy at the forefront quickly pulled up when it was still dozens of meters away from the transport ship, turned in reverse, and flew backward.

However, some unlucky ones seemed to have a problem with their steering systems; they couldn't pull up in time and crashed directly into it.

Fragments from the explosion fell from the sky, and the green-skinned creatures that flew out landed directly on the ground and smashed into mushroom-shaped pieces without any safety measures.

With Hograk, the self-proclaimed tactician, as their leader, the Greenskins began to try to learn so-called tactics.

The attack just now was a probing attack by the squadron leader, mainly to confirm the enemy's firepower.

As things stand, ordinary aircraft are simply incapable of causing any damage; only large bombs capable of creating mushroom clouds can be deployed.

Just as the green-skinned flying boys were preparing to launch their second wave of attack, the warships responsible for protecting the transport ship were all in position, and countless torpedoes flew toward the annoying flies.

Suddenly, a dazzling display of fireworks appeared in the sky.

The torpedo detonated the warplane carrying the nuclear bomb. The energy and shockwave generated and released by nuclear fusion hastened the demise of the Greenskins air force.

Looking at the mushroom cloud displayed on the screen, Xiao Yi's expression gradually became complicated. He didn't expect that the group of green-skinned people on the other side could even conjure up a nuclear bomb.

A defense line built with torpedoes is bound to have loopholes. If a green-skinned warplane carrying a nuclear bomb were to accidentally slip in, the transport fleet would be in danger.

It seems the only option is to send out the backup squadron to intercept them.

The fully equipped soldiers boarded the plane and left the Fearless Lion, getting entangled with the annoying green flies in the air.

The vast majority of Imperial forces are equipped with various types of fighter jets produced locally or in nearby casting worlds, and Xiao Yi's flight squadron is one such example.

Apart from those few Thunderhawk gunboats, the rest were Thunder fighters mass-produced by Atlak Magnus.

Compared to the Thunderhawk gunship, the Thunder fighter jet is much inferior in performance, but the former is limited by manufacturing technology and cannot be equipped on a large scale by the Imperial forces.

Only the Astartes and elite units would have flying squadrons composed of Thunderhawk gunships. The few that Xiao Yi had were sponsored by Valerian and Friedrich.

The battle was extremely fierce, with a fighter jet crashing almost every few minutes, the vast majority of which were inferior green-skinned aircraft.

With their superior flying skills and weaponry, the Empire inflicted heavy damage on the Greenskins' air force in a short period of time.

However, due to the overwhelming number of enemy fighters, quite a few Thunder fighters still perished.

The incident that resulted in the most kills occurred when a green-skinned fighter jet carrying a nuclear bomb exploded, engulfing all the surrounding aircraft.

While the air forces were engaged in fierce combat, the ground forces were not idle either.

Upon discovering the Greenskins' flying units, the Starport garrison immediately deployed anti-aircraft guns in an attempt to shoot down all these annoying guys.

However, as the pressure on ground defenses increased, they temporarily stopped providing support and began using anti-aircraft missiles to bombard the heavily armored elite green-skinned units.

This thing can be fired into the sky or into the ground.

Behind the Greenskins' position, a large group of Orc Tech Boys were operating electromagnetic cannons created by the Great Tech Lords, aiming at the landing transport ship.

Countless farts were running hard in the generators that resembled hamster wheels in the back.

As the red button on the control panel was pressed, crackling arcs of electricity leaped around the electromagnetic cannon, instantly turning any orc boy who accidentally touched it into a lump of charcoal.

When the electrical energy was fully charged, the muzzle lit up with a dazzling light, and then the surrounding world turned white.

The energy ball fired from the electromagnetic cannon hurtled toward the outer armor of the transport ship at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

There was no explosion, no sound; the energy ball, like a dagger piercing flesh, smoothly carved a gap in the armor.

"Warning: The hull has been attacked and the outer armor has been damaged. Please repair it as soon as possible."

"What's going on?"

The captain, who was momentarily confused about the situation, was at a loss.

Just as the green-skinned boy was excitedly about to launch a second energy ball to give humanity a little green-skinned shock.

Having already detected the abnormal energy fluctuations, Friedrich immediately ordered the launch of missiles to destroy the Greenskins and their not-so-scientific weapons.

The missile, bearing the insignia of the Mechanicus and the praise of Om Messiah, pierced through the fly-like green-skinned flight squadron and struck the orc techboy and the fart spirit struggling to generate electricity behind them.

Friedrich and his Mars Explorer were like the Grim Reaper, precisely reaping the greenskins hiding in the rear, trying to harm the transport fleet.

As the war intensified, amidst everyone's tense anticipation, the first transport ship finally landed safely at its designated location.

The moment the hatch opened, the Wernheim warriors, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately rushed to the battlefield with a portion of the supplies under the command of their officers.

With their addition, the previously immense pressure on the defense line immediately eased considerably. Most importantly, the unfamiliar faces rekindled new hope in the hearts of the soldiers who had developed a fear of the green-skinned soldiers.

Faced with this group of heavily armored warriors who could ignore the recoil of heavy logging guns and use them like carbines, the Greenskins were momentarily at a loss.

But once they realized what was happening, they unleashed a passion that was difficult for humans to comprehend.

I came here to fight, and now a bunch of even stronger guys have arrived. This is definitely a disaster.
