A New Empire War And Peace
Chapter 33
Previous Chapter Next ChapterOnly a day had passed since I had helped repel the boars from taking the NZR capital, and my troops where quickly advancing to the capital of the Boar Empire, these cities didn't actually have names, just numbers, like one, two, three, you get the idea, and I had agreed to help the Zebras with things like food, water, medicine, until they where stable, free of charge, as like I said before, I help others, to help others, not be a greedy fuckwad, already canned goods and canned water was being sent in via troop carrier.
Other than that I mainly watched my troops advance upon the boars with scary efficiency, and that's when something fucking weird, and somewhat bad happened, one of my Humvee's was driving over a path left by the boars as they ran, it's MK43 HPMG shooting thousands upon thousands of plasma bolts a minute, simply exploded as the ground under it blew up in a fashion not unlike a somewhat scaled up mini nuke, soon after that the wreck of the Humvee was shown after the dust settled, it was mangled to all hell, it's android driver missing their lower half as it crawled from the wreckage holding a rifle, still shooting at the boars, gotta give it to em, these bots do their job till they are completely dead.
The Humvee I was in, I was on top in the gunner turret aiming my new toy out, as I had been helping kill boars, exploded as well after it passed the one that had already exploded, and lemme tell ya, IT FUCKING HURTS TO BLOW UP, after respawning I sat aside on a chair I pulled from my inventory, and messaged the androids, giving the command to stop the charge for now, and called Pam for some automated air support, yep that's right, I had automated fighters, they where faster than the ones that had living pilots since they could take full advantage of their anti gravity engines, and the computers inside them allowed them to react hundreds of times faster than a pony could, which is why the manned fighters where locked at mach 15 for their max speed, while these could go mach 30.
The automated fighters also looked nothing like the bulky tear drop shaped manned fighters I had, they looked like a crescent moon shape, which made em look bad ass as they flew through the air, their wingspan was about 50 feet, they where quite large because they'd also serve as bombers, as well as fighters, if need be, they had all the same weapons as a standard fighter, however they had a new weapon as well, plasma mini-guns that where 20 mm, two of em exactly, they'd pop outta the wings, just like any weapons they had, they where hidden inside until they needed to fire them.
I was getting off point, I had them called in to carpet bomb the roads ahead of us with simple little bombs that would blow up any remaining hidden explosive devices, I watched the fighters go into a dive bomb, letting out hundreds of grenade sized bombs in a line clear across the entire field and road, for their effort they got 15 more of those weird bombs to go off with explosions of red light, some kind of bomb I guess, I'd find out once we took the capital however. Now that those bombs had been dealt with I got into a new Humvee and with my command, the rest of the troops started moving again, the capital was in sight, it was....boring to say the least, I expected some tall black castle with fire everywhere, but no it was just a simple castle, walls made of concrete.
After getting into the town, my soldiers came under fire from boar soldiers, however a few shots from the tanks, and the humvee's HPMG's silenced them pretty damned quickly, now that the city was undefended, this was about to get fun.
My convoy of troops plowed through any whom dared to stand in our way, mainly just boar soldiers in plate armor using their well known bolt action rifles, a few pistols, and a few machine guns, as the castle grew closer the boars seemed to just...give up, running away realizing just how pointless it was to try and fight my troops, that was a first, normally the enemy tries to win no matter what, seems these boar had SOME common sense after all, even if their ruler clearly didn't.
The castle as I said before, looked boring, but before we got close enough for the guns to start shooting and actually have a chance to hit us, the 5 tanks I had with us shot their missiles out of the missile pods on the sides of each tank, destroying the battlements of the castle wall, and taking out large chunks of the walls, before I lifted an arm up, holding my assaultron blade, and aimed it at the castle, causing the troops to move forward with a battle cry.
It was glorious to watch my troops in action, using their AER-10 laser rifles, and plasma rifles, a few had missile launchers, while others had combat shotguns, it was pure carnage, and it was lovely, as my troops delt with the boars within the walls, I walked through the castle doors, and after getting some directions from a guard, whom left as quickly as possible after I got said directions, and walked into the throne room, to see the boar king, in all his hammy glory, pun intended.
"So you arrive at last! Seemingly my pathetic guards need better training if they couldn't deal with your forces." He pulled out a pistol from his belt, it was a luger p08, as expected because remember, these guys stole all their shit from the cats, and aimed at me, I simply let him shoot me, before respawning, much to his horror. "You try to kill me? I'd like to see you try! You can take my life but I'll fail to die, but I bet the same can't be said for you, can it?" I nearly broke out laughing at the look of horror on his face as I failed to die when he shot me.
"You are a demon! One I must put down!, for the greater good of all boa-" He was cut off once I shot him in the chest with a .308 bullet, right into his heart, causing him to kneel over and cough up some blood, before falling to the floor, dead, honestly why he thought he was a threat to me, will be a mystery forever, oh well. I went over and sawed his head off using my assaultron blade, gotta collect the skull for my trophy room after all, damn room was getting stuffed, I had Umbra's skull, Chrysalis's skull, the one from my world not this one, a dragons skull, Bonejaw's skull, the Storm King's skull, even if I had to have it repaired in certain areas, the skull of that massive caribou king, and the skull of that one elk king that thought he could tell me and my empire to fuck off and move outta the north.
I'd have my androids go through this entire capital, taking any advanced technology they'd find, and giving it back to the cats, or using it if it was deemed useful to the Empire.
----------------Canterlot Castle, Throne Room----------------
The throne room had been set up like a court house, with Princess Celestia as the judge, Cadence sat at a table with a cup of water next to her, a horn ring, and wing binders on, looking defeated as Celestia read her charges out loud. "Mi Amora Cadenza, you are hereby accused of the following, attempted cultural genocide, attempted destruction of countless, priceless cultural artifacts, attempted abuse of power as a ruler, abuse of those whom you have ruled over, and overall, abuse of alicornhood, being an alicorn does not entitle you to anything you want, it does not mean you are immune to the laws, you are hereby convicted as guilty of these charges, not even adding on attempted murder of another ruler, your punishment is the loss of any authority you have, and you will be stripped of your alicornhood." As Celestia finished talking, her horn began to glow with a brilliant white, her eyes glowing in the same manner, as the glow surrounded Cadence, and with a flash, her horn fell off, nothing but dead bone.
The magical feedback caused by the spell, ripping away Cadence's magic, her horn, and her immortality, caused her to black out, Celestia nodded to a guardmare, whom took Cadence to the Canterlot Central Hospital, to be treated for magic shock, while the attendants of the court filed out in a calm manner, after everyone was gone, Celestia just sighed. "Everything is getting out of hand these days...."
Celestia teleported to somewhere she could always relax, the kitchen, with a giant chocolate cake sitting there, if cakes where alive, Celestia would be their worst nightmare.
Shining Armor had been at the trial, and he had heard what his wife had done, she had convinced him that what she was doing was right, even if it didn't feel right, and now, Shining Armor was not so sure he could continue being with her, if she was just going to lie and manipulate him, then she was no better than Chrysalis had been on their wedding day, after realizing this, he went down to a court house, and filed for a divorce, he wouldn't deal with a mare that lied to him, tricked him, and acted like nothing was wrong about that, it's why when those robots showed up in the empire, he didn't fight them, he let them take what they wanted, and let them leave without any fight, he was the one to get the Equestrians on the train back to Equestria before the crystal heart was taken, what was going to happen next, he didn't know, but he damn well knew he wouldn't stand for Cadence's bullshit any longer.
