1850. Beheading (Part 1)

Ssi-ruuvi Imperium capital, Levik planet, Kriyak Palace command center.

The sound of gunfire and explosions could be clearly heard even in the command center, and the tense atmosphere permeated every corner. Just now, those nasty invaders organized five transport ships to conduct a forced airborne assault, but they were pushed back by Xilu Imperial Guard.

But the battle so close at hand still frightened senior leaders at all levels in the command center.

"Bastard! Bastard bastard bastard bastard!!" Great Xirithut yelled in the slang of Xilu people. He smashed out everything he could pick up. His troops were suffering an unprecedented blow. "Where is my troop!? Where is my troop!?!? Where is Uroka's seventh battle group?! Let them reinforce immediately!!"

"Your Majesty, General Uroka's seventh battle group was bombed by the enemy when it was assembled... The current situation... is unknown..." A staff officer next to him lowered his head and whispered, and he raised his finger to the sky.

In the smoke-filled sky, the giant warship in low-Earth orbit was still clearly visible. The giant ship with terrifying firepower and terrifying jump technology is now hovering in low-Earth orbit. A large number of super-powerful searchlights on the battleship are all turned on and shining towards the ground, like a huge demon hovering in the sky.

"Then bring me all those green-skinned troops!" Great Xirithut is talking about the armies built with the green-skinned Xilu people as the main force. Such an army, Ssi-ruuvi Imperium, maintains a number of more than 18 million.

Naturally, the combat effectiveness of these green-skinned armies cannot be compared with those of Red Caste's army, but at this critical moment, Great Xirithut has to pin its hopes on this army. Although Chief of Staff repeatedly reminded him that it is wise to retreat Kriyak Palace now. Before General Lepix's main fleet returns, they must do everything possible to prevent Ssi-ruuvi Imperium's military command system from being paralyzed.

"Your Majesty, let's temporarily retreat Kriyak Palace... Before General Lepix's main fleet returns, it is impossible for any army to be able to approach Kriyak Palace..." Chief of Staff said.

He didn't dare to show Great Xirithut the images and videos around the Kriyak Palace now, because it was so miserable! Too bad!

The troops stationed near the capital Kriyak Palace were all bloodthirsty and brave. They swarmed towards the Kriyak Palace as soon as they discovered that the invaders were unfolding Orbital Drop.

There are even four armored battle groups around, each with 30,000 elite soldiers and more than 1,900 tanks and self-propelled artillery of various types. During the previous Ssi-ruuvi Imperium invasion, these armored battle groups also created a terrible record of a battle group directly killing an entire enemy continent!

However, this time, they didn't even have a chance to fight head-on!

Endless-class Super Carrier is hovering in low-Earth orbit. The warship's precise strike range covers an area on the ground with a diameter of tens of thousands of kilometers, almost the entire hemisphere! Under the scanning of the powerful detection system, all large-scale military gatherings will be directly bombed by Endless-class Super Carrier!

Even if there are some places that Eternity cannot explode, the formation of Wraith fighter and Viking fighter will soon drop more smart cluster bombs, creating a series of tragic killings!

Now on several expressways near the Kriyak Palace, it is completely hell on earth! Countless corpses were piled on top of each other, with broken limbs and arms everywhere. The destroyed tanks and armored vehicles were still burning, emitting thick smoke. On the ground, craters several hundred meters in diameter told of the terrible blows they had suffered.

These corpses and debris completely blocked the road leading to the Kriyak Palace. The troops outside had to set up self-propelled artillery to bomb these passages, hoping that high-explosive shells could help them clear a road as soon as possible.

But even this is very dangerous - Eternity, who is watching eagerly in the sky, may find these artillery positions firing at any time, and then shoot them down with a Turbolaser cannon and send them to see Heavenly Saint.

Now, it's a dead end! Both Great Xirithut and other senior generals are well aware of this.

The only thing they can count on is that Xilu Imperial Guard stationed inside the Kriyak Palace can perform miracles. Each of these elite troops composed purely of Red Caste warriors has the power of one to ten!

There are about 10,000 people in this Guards force, but they have been scattered by the first wave of the Fourth Legion soldiers dropped by Orbital Drop. But no matter what, there were so many people that they quickly regrouped into small teams and began to engage in fierce street fighting inside the Kriyak Palace with Duchy of Dawn Navy Marines who had descended from the air.

Xilu people Guards are fighting in every building. They are ferocious and powerful, and their well-developed hind limbs give them unparalleled speed! Although he is not Fourth Legion's opponent, it is still easy to deal with the ordinary soldiers of Duchy of Dawn Navy Marines.

Marines had to rely on their six Thor Mech and more than 100 Scorpion tank to advance slowly, bombing all the way, but the advancement was still very slow.

Kriyak Palace is very solid as a whole. Ordinary bombing cannot destroy those buildings at all, and it is difficult for Eternity's current Orbital Bombardment methods to penetrate deep underground. So from the perspective of Duchy of Dawn Exploration Fleet, although they have firmly grasped the chance of victory, there are still hidden dangers!

If victory cannot be achieved within two days, the situation will become very bad when the enemy's main fleet returns.

However, they also have their own plans.

Normandy flew over Kriyak Palace in a stealth state. The landing ship lowered and opened the hatch at a place relatively far away from the main battlefield. Shepard led her team and filed out.

Ghost Agent Senluo, Reaper, and their five subordinates Spectre. A 10-man team led by Ashley Williams and Kayden Alanco is all they have.

But these people have been performing various missions together for a long time, and they are all the most elite and experienced fighters.

They will be responsible for finding Ssi-ruuvi Emperor. Once the target is confirmed, Huang Yehao and Fourth Legion will rush in from all directions and completely destroy Ssi-ruuvi Imperium's command core!

Senluo, Reaper and Ghost Agent, a total of 7 of them, instantly disappeared as soon as they came out and disappeared into the air without a sound, and their whereabouts were unknown.

And Shepard and the others are heading towards the place where Kriyak Palace's internal communication signals are most frequent, moving quickly like sharp knives!
