Chapter 934: Please come to Comoros as a guest
A large army of dark elves appeared in the warp.
Although this army was not as large as the Terra Expeditionary Force assembled by Robert, for the Dark Eldar, it was almost as powerful as the entire race.
In terms of quantity, that is definitely far from coming out in full force.
They can't do it either.
When the Dark Eldar come to the Warp to fight, they need to use their special technology, consume huge amounts of energy, and obscure the souls of all Eldar members in order to hide from Slaanesh.
The energy consumption is very huge. The Dark Eldar have taken out their best treasures. Countless compressed energy crystals are powering this shielding system, but the number of people that can be shielded is still limited.
This means that although they can mobilize a lot of manpower overall, they cannot afford to waste even a single point, let alone bring a lot of cannon fodder.
They appeared on the Warp battlefield just as a demon army was raiding the Terran Expeditionary Force.
The Dark Eldar did not rush into the battlefield. Their entire fleet spread out and surrounded the entire battlefield in a special formation.
Front and back, left and right, up and down... In this three-dimensional space, it is impossible for the Dark Eldar fleet to encircle everything.
Even if the blockade is completed, this blockade is still very weak. As long as the demons and humans on the battlefield decide the winner - it seems that the Terra Expeditionary Force should be the winner - if they want to break out, then the encirclement formed by the dark elves will be meaningless and will be broken into pieces with one charge.
The dark elves that suddenly appeared on the edge of the battlefield were of course discovered by the human fleet. However, through his insight into their strange movements, Robert could also see that the enemy's blockade was actually meaningless and could not seal them off.
However, he also knew that these dark elves who took huge risks to enter the warp were definitely not here for tourism.
He was wary of these dark elves, but since their behavior would not affect the human fleet for the time being, he would ignore them for now. The higher priority was to deal with the demons that were currently entangled with them.
In the warp, the demons didn't even need warships. They swarmed in, transformed from invisible to visible, and attacked every ship wantonly. In such a battle, the cannons could not play a big role, unless they locked onto a powerful demon and used the cannons to hit it hard. But generally speaking, against a large number of demons, a single powerful cannon, whether it was a macro cannon or a light spear, was not very useful.
On the contrary, missile weapons will be more effective.
However, during the long warp voyage, they experienced many battles and consumed a lot of ammunition. Even though there were mechanical arks and small engineering ships of the Mechanicum in the fleet, and various mechanical workshops had the ability to reproduce, raw materials were still a problem. Even with a lot of transport ships carrying materials, they could only rely on cleaning up the battlefield after the battle to recycle metal scraps for reuse. Such a means of replenishment was too limited.
Overall reserves of all kinds of materials are at a very dangerous level.
They had to let as many enemies as possible into the ship, and then rely on the Space Marines and mortal soldiers inside the ship to fight a brutal battle with these demons with flesh and blood.
But this also causes damage.
The ammunition used by the soldiers is also a loss, the casualties of the soldiers are also a loss, and the battle takes place inside the ship, so the damage to the ship requires repairs which also consumes resources.
To be honest, if it weren't for Robert, the son of God, the human expeditionary force would have been destroyed long ago.
Among the many sons of God ten thousand years ago, Robert was not known for his military prowess, or even his ability as a military commander.
He is a "civil servant" and his greatest fame comes from his strategic level and political and economic management capabilities.
But even so, comparing him with the 'small Primarch' Martins created by Gu Hang, the combat power of the two may be about the same, 64-Robert 6. In terms of battle command level, 82-Robert 8. In terms of strategic level and political and economic leadership, 100-Robert 10.
Robert won all round, being better than Martins in his 'weak' events, not to mention his strong events.
It's a pity that Robert's most outstanding political and economic leadership talents cannot be displayed here, but his management skills can still be put to use.
If he had not been an outstanding leader, how could he have maintained the fleet's existence and prevented it from disintegrating, and even kept the morale of the soldiers, warriors, and sailors high during the more than ten years of arduous voyages and expeditions in the dark and miserable warp?
His battle command ability, which is above average among all the Sons of God, also enables him to minimize his own losses while achieving victory in almost every battle, and to maintain the long-term operation of the entire fleet as much as possible.
The same principle applies to the current battle.
It is not difficult to defeat the invading demons, but the difficulty lies in how to cause the least losses as possible.
This requires Robert to constantly and delicately operate.
What was different this time was that he couldn't really ignore those dark elves who were doing something inexplicably beside him.
Robert allocated a part of his strength to watch them from the side. Instinctively feeling a little uneasy, he decided to expend a little more strength this time to speed up the elimination of the demonic enemies in front of him.
Otherwise, it’s hard to say what will happen next.
Soon, someone came and reported to him what the dark elves were doing.
That was Gu Jing.
The son of the leader of the alliance, a master of psychic powers, and Theriot, the chief think tank director of the Infinite Legion, came to him together.
"The dark elves are using a special force to cut through this entire subspace. They are trying to pull us to a place closer to the real universe."
"Are they going to expel us from the warp? Let us get lost?" Robert asked.
Gu Jing said with a serious expression: "I'm afraid it's more than that. They want to cut us into the veil between the subspace and the real universe. That is where their lair, Comoros, is located."
"Behind the veil, the efficiency of both the subspace engine and the conventional engine will be greatly reduced. They want us to be their 'guests', and once we go, it will be difficult to get out."
