Chapter 270 04.0269: "Punishment from Heaven"

After half a day of siege, underground in Abyss Port.

"Ah! Ah! My arm!"

"Tourniquet! Quick, this lady is bleeding to death!"

"Someone come and give me a hand, there are four people buried in the place that just collapsed!"

In the besieged security building, the situation of the remaining Citizen Army elements and civilians who joined the armed resistance has reached rock bottom.

It seemed that the Hive Police Force had long anticipated that they would rob the building, so they moved the weapons and supplies inside in advance, in order to lure the citizen army personnel into entering without gaining any increase in their combat power, so as to catch them in the trap.

There were no backup supplies, no medicines, no ammunition, no weapons, and even the bulletproof and shock-proof layers of some of the defense facilities had been removed.

The Water Guild and the Energy Guild of the Guild Alliance cut off all water and electricity supplies to the entire besieged security building.

Reporters from the planet were filming this siege from the periphery.

The Upper Nesters, who were unaware of the truth, watched with interest as the Hive City Marshals bravely fought against the terrorists and actively defended the stability of the planet on the day of the triumphal ceremony.

The citizen army and the resisting civilians were almost out of ammunition and food.

The exhausted resistance fighters leaned against the ruins, and the atmosphere in the crowd suddenly became sad.

Some people began to cry bitterly.

"Love, honor, fame, nothing is left. The rationality that I have insisted on for a lifetime is like a vow made with blood..."

Watching this scene, a dusty girl from the Citizen Army sat behind the ruins, holding a gun, opening her cracked and bloodstained lips, and began to sing:
"Our comrades have died, leaving only the flag flying. Until a new dawn comes, we must not waver."

"Though the years may pass, the hive will know." More and more people sang along:

"The cry when I wake up is like the roar of boiling blood. I will move forward courageously, and those who are still alive should follow me."

After the firepower weakened, the first batch of Hive City Marshals Heavy Assault Team successfully broke into the door of the security building.

"I'm not a terrorist! You bastards are murderers!" A man in a jacket stood up with a gun and shouted, "Long live the Empire! Long live the Emperor!"

The Hive City Marshals Commando raised their automatic rifles and mercilessly shot the man who blocked their way into a sieve. The man glared at them and fell to the ground with his eyes open.

These commandos leave no one alive, whether they are men or women, old or young, they are all "rebels" in their eyes and will be shot immediately once discovered.

This is the original imperial indiscriminate approach.

"Now, throw!" Yin Shuyao's cousin Enjolras led a group of volunteers who were not afraid of sacrifice to ambush at the second-floor window. When the commandos approached, they stood up together and threw incendiary bombs out of the window.

Many of the first group of Hive Marshals Commandos who approached were caught off guard and had their bodies set on fire. They screamed miserably and rolled around on the ground frantically to beat the flames.

The second batch of commandos who came to reinforce opened fire at the rebels on the second floor at the gate, and many of them fell to the ground after being shot.

"Ugh!" Enjolras was also hit by a bullet in the shoulder, and blood stained his jacket red.

"Quickly move the wounded and children to the basement. Everyone who can still move, please resist together!" Feuilly, the leader of the citizen army, shouted loudly.

The commandos broke into the last gate and began to fire indiscriminately. Many members of the citizen army who lacked individual protective equipment were shot dead on the spot.

Just as the third batch of commandos were preparing to attack, the roar of the Valkyrie fighter's heavy engine suddenly came overhead.

Five minutes ago. A high-level meeting between the Admiralty and the Law Department.

"Dissolve the Planetary Parliament and order all armed forces under the Guild Alliance to disarm. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!" Katalia stood up and said to the representatives of the Ministry of Justice and the naval participants in front of her.

Valkyrie fighters and Avis landing craft loaded with the Imperial Navy's air transport forces flew out from various naval bases in an overwhelming manner.

The Ministry of Justice's wheeled assault vehicles and heavy explosion-proof tracked transport vehicles advanced towards the middle nest with the black riot control Lemanus leading the way.

The explosion-proof transport vehicle lowered the gangplank, and the Ministry of Justice bailiffs wearing silver armor filed out from it.

The Nest Marshals who were chasing and beating the crowd on the street collided with them.

The Ministry of Justice bailiffs blocked their way.

"Sir, we are on a riot suppression mission. What are you doing..." The Hive City marshals loyal to the Guild Alliance were stunned when they saw their 'colleagues' standing in front of them.

"We are also on riot control mission. Go! Suppress them!" The fully armed Arbitrator Javert raised the stun baton in his hand, and the bailiffs from the Imperial Ministry of Justice rushed forward, swinging the stun batons at these hive bailiffs who were bloodthirsty.

These local tyrants who usually bully the common people are no match for the bailiffs from the Ministry of Justice who graduated from the Chusi Academy.

The first round of impact sent the hive police rolling on the ground, and the electric stun batons hit them mercilessly.

"Ah! Ah! Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! Oh!!" The screams on the streets still continue, but the protagonists have become these perpetrators.

Crack! Bang!

The bailiffs from the Ministry of Justice were hoping that these guys would not surrender, as no one wanted to go through the long legal process that would follow.

As long as they have a weapon in their hands, of course, that includes the one on their body, they will pick up a shotgun and beat people to pieces.

Only those who were particularly smart and threw away all their weapons and lay on the ground at the first moment would be handcuffed reluctantly by the bailiffs of the Ministry of Justice.

Of course, before that, the riot stick will break some bones of these smart-assed guys.

Some people couldn't stand the beating and wanted to escape.

As soon as he took a step, the bailiff next to him loaded the Peacekeeper shotgun and fired, blasting the man into a ball of minced meat. The whole process was done in one go.

"Many high-ranking representatives of the Guild Alliance have been found to have committed a series of corrupt and heretical acts, including poisoning, kidnapping, and cannibalism. The Planetary Ministry of the Interior has submitted a motion of no confidence in the current Planetary Governor. Before the final investigation results are released, the Guild Alliance's ruling power will be taken back."

News devices of all sizes in the hive began broadcasting the latest news. Within a day, the people of the planet had a feast of melons. The Valkyrie fighter jet dropped a rappel rope from the sky, and fully armed Zhongzi marines and Hell's scouts descended from it.

The force was led by Louise herself, with the aim of rescuing the besieged civilians.

They pointed their guns at the marshals and bounty hunters surrounding the hive.

Although the order from the Navy Department was to demand the other side to surrender first and then kill the resisters if they refused.

However, the news that the Guild Alliance military police shot and killed three Navy Loyalty Trainees during the riot control had spread throughout the Abridal Loyalty Academy.

This kind of thing made the Zhongsi students indignant, and they vowed to wash away the hatred for their comrades with blood.

When they received the order to attack, the Navy Department had no control over how these angry elites implemented the order on the spot.

And everyone knows that as long as everyone does this, even if there is an investigation afterwards, it will not be possible to severely punish so many valuable Zhongsi students for violating military discipline.

Unafraid of punishment, the Zhongji Marines and the Hell Vanguards immediately launched a bloody revenge on the Hive City's military and police.

They were murderous, and without saying a word or issuing any warning, they directly attacked the military and police forces of the guild alliance and the bounty hunters.

The fierce and well-coordinated attacks killed the armed men one by one on the spot, and the guild alliance soldiers and police were forced to abandon their weapons and weapons, becoming dizzy and completely unable to organize any resistance.

As the captain, Louise did not comment on this and did not stop her men from attacking.

Although she didn't think that after completely driving the Guild Alliance out of power, there would be someone to support them and hold the Hell's Vanguard accountable for their illegal behavior.

But even if anything happened, she would take it for Horatio and not involve him.

Although the Valkyrie pilots in the sky did not take the initiative to attack at the first time, the armed personnel of the Guild Alliance, after being angered by the Zhongji Marines, began to turn the muzzles of the Lemanus' guns and aim them at the air transport troops.

This aggressive behavior triggered the high-level order to "shoot if you resist."

The rocket pods hanging on both sides of the Valkyrie fighter fired a large string of dense rockets at the Lemanus tank, making the top turret of the Guild Alliance Lemanus "furious".

Bang! Lemanus, which was hit directly by armor-piercing rockets, exploded one after another.

Seeing this, the commandos who had already entered the security building were so frightened that they quickly withdrew from the building and prepared to escape.

When they rushed out of the gate, all that was waiting for them was the neat and orderly line of Tadashi's marines.
-
Throne area, planetary council chamber.

This is the ruling capital of the planetary governor. The square is already filled with elite military and police forces loyal to the Guild Alliance. Through some unspeakable means, the governor even pulled in the Hydra anti-aircraft guns of the planetary defense force.

The planetary governor ordered these troops to shoot down any aircraft that did not belong to the guild alliance appearing above the council chamber and the governor's palace on the spot without reporting or requesting permission.

The area outside the square was littered with corpses, the bodies of the angry people who surrounded the Governor's Palace.

The military and police forces, who were most obedient to the Guild Alliance, had already massacred the surrounding area. They were waiting for the next instructions from the planetary governor, but for some reason, the communication channel suddenly became very quiet.

Three dark green Thunderhawks belonging to the Salamanders' Third Company and dozens of Avis landing craft loaded with naval infantry guards suddenly appeared in the sky above the capital square.

Faced with the aircraft of the Space Marines and the Imperial Navy, these military and police forces hesitated at first, but soon, they instinctively obeyed orders and opened fire at the aircraft.

It was the governor who gave the order, and they were just executing the order from their superiors.

The Salamanders' Third Company was already ready, and their Thunderhawks were mounted according to the first-level combat readiness.

In an instant, several missiles streaked across the sky over the square and hit the Hydra anti-aircraft guns directly.

The Astartes jumped down from mid-air.

Flames, filled with hostility towards the traitors and hatred for the massacre of civilians, poured out fiercely from the firebenders' flamethrowers.

However, the laser guns of the military and police forces were unable to cause any damage to the thick ceramic steel armor.

The first line of defense was quickly breached, and a landing zone was cleared in flames.

Landing craft loaded with Red Guards began to land one after another.

Under the leadership of Colonel Elphinstone, a whole battalion of Red Guards were deployed around the perimeter, surrounding the entire building.

The protesting civilians who were beaten back nearby poked their dusty and bloodstained faces out of the streets and alleys, watching in amazement as the Emperor's angels and His Holy Navy destroyed the defenses of the planetary governor's minions at whirlwind speed.

"Go! Friends! Avenge the sacrificed and murdered relatives and friends!"

The civilians of Zhonghei who ran out from the underground of Vegas District rose up and joined the offensive front.

As thousands of people joined the battle, even though the military and police guarding the Governor's Palace were elite soldiers, they were unable to withstand the combined punch of the Astartes and the Marine Infantry Guards.

The defense lines began to collapse one by one, and a raging fire broke out on the Bastille Tower in the distance.

The defenders inside were hacked to death by the angry crowd, and the innocent civilians who were arrested and imprisoned just for talking about the scandals of the guild alliance were released.

Soon, the tall staircase of the council chamber was captured.

The Salamanders and the Red Infantrymen walked into the silent meeting hall. The imagined scene of a group of fat and plump guild alliance representatives huddled in their seats and shivering did not appear.

There was a river of blood inside, and corpses cut in half by power swords were everywhere.

The Salamanders' deputy captain, who was leading the team, looked towards the planetary governor's throne, next to which stood a black-armored warrior.

He was wearing Raven Pattern Power Armour, and from the emblem on his shoulder armour he was a Death Watch Space Marine from the Raven Guard.

The Raven Guard shut down the force field of the force sword, and the adamantine Governor's throne in front of them was cut off cleanly by a diagonal slash. Half of the chair back and half of the body of the planetary governor in purple robes fell to the ground.

"The heresy has been eliminated. The evidence has been sent to the Inquisition." The Raven Guard named Korchagin said coldly.
