Chapter 604: Prelude to the War
“This is a new Astartes transformation surgery arranged for the Dark Gods. The specific situation will be discussed at the Sun Fortress at that time.”
Wang Mingkan Looking at Ryan in front of him, he nodded towards the old lion, then took out a data pad and handed it directly to Ryan's hand.
"My brother, isn't this a bit abrupt?"
Ryan looked at the data pad in his hand, and he said to Wang Ming with a serious face, regarding the New Astartes transformation surgery, In fact, Ryan had some concerns in his heart. After all, this was not a technology that belonged to their legion, but was independently researched by the 21st legion.
Ryan is still a little skeptical about this kind of thing that is different from the traditional Astartes transformation surgery. Although he can accept the Primaris Space Marine transformation surgery, this so-called new Astartes transformation surgery is indeed a bit It came out of nowhere, and it was hard not to make people suspicious.
“I know, my brother, that there is nothing wrong with the transformation surgery of the New Astartes. After all, what I did was only achieved with the approval of our father.”< br>
Wang Ming looked at Ryan in front of him. Although the old Lion King had lost many of his previous personalities, his suspicious personality still existed. This is understandable, just like before Wang Ming When recommending Neo-Astartes transformation surgery to those other Legions.
Many legions have questioned it, even from the Imperial Army guarding the palace on Holy Terra. If Wang Ming had not had the endorsement of the Emperor in his hands, it would have been impossible to advance to New Aspen. Tate's plans for reconstructive surgery were extremely difficult.
In fact, in the empire, the empire is very concerned about some conservative things, but in Wang Ming’s hands, he doesn’t care about these conservative things at all. All he wants is to improve the empire’s Combat power, and let those Chaos Evil Gods go to hell.
After Ryan heard Wang Ming's words, he was silent for a moment, then picked up the data tablet and looked at it. Finally, he nodded towards Wang Ming and agreed with Wang Ming's statement.
Comparing this era with the Great Crusade era, he still knows too little about this era. Although he already knows a lot, he still doesn’t know much about the 21st Legion. , except for the terrible record of the 21st Legion, he knew almost nothing.
Although he spent some time in the 21st Legion, Ryan believes that he has not been exposed to some core things. This is the lion's paranoia. In fact, when Ryan was on the fleet During those hours, Wang Wangming had almost opened the entire fleet to Ryan.
In addition to worrying that Ryan would be injured by the experimental products of the First Engineer Regiment, Wang Ming did not prevent Ryan from going to every corner of the fleet. Even the database did not lock Ryan. He could Feel free to view all information on the 21st Legion.
But this naturally suspicious lion still doesn’t believe in Wang Ming very much, and it can’t be said that he doesn’t believe it very much. Instead, he has an instinctive doubt about the other brothers, which is unavoidable. But this also proves Ryan's foresight on some things and his wisdom.
For example, when he was on Macragge, he had actually guessed what Guilliman would do. He had the idea of stopping Guilliman before arriving at Macragge, but after learning the specific situation , he still agreed with Guilliman's approach.
There is no doubt that the dark history that once existed in the empire, that second empire that once existed, is one of the lion’s wisdoms. Although no one is willing to mention this, it is still true. something that existed.
"I will arrange surgery for your legion as soon as possible. Now let us take a look at the war situation in this area."
Wang Ming looked at Ryan in front of him, and then said to him After knowing the situation of this war, Wang Ming and the other two brothers attach great importance to this war. After all, the scale of this war has reached such a large scale that hundreds of billions of cultists are constantly fighting. Massacre of a large number of worlds, but the empire's military strength is limited in this area. If you want to deploy a large number of troops to deal with this area, it will require Guilliman and the time-travelers on Holy Terra to work overtime. , and this area is not suitable for large-scale troop investment.
Although from the perspective of the battlefield, this area does lack troops, but from the perspective of chaos pollution, continuing to increase the number of warriors will undoubtedly increase the strength of Khorne's faith.
This is also one of the troublesome points in fighting Chaos in this universe, that is, for Chaos, in fact, the more troops invested, the more its power increases, because the creation of Chaos and the source of Chaos power are from From the thinking of intelligent creatures, it can be said that as long as a human being sees a demon for the first time, the human being who sees the demon has become one of the sources of the power of the demon and the evil god.
Chaos is so unreasonable. You want to fight against it, but just because you know that it is the source of its power, there is no possibility of victory. But humans are still fighting, right? To fight for their own race, to fight for the human empire, to fight for the holy emperor who comes from the golden throne, mankind will not succumb to chaos.
“To be specific, the military deployment in this star area is relatively weak, but the attack of the cultists here is relatively fierce. Due to the emergence of a large number of demons in this world, there is already a big demon. came into the world, so we did not deploy a large number of troops here, but deployed a large amount of orbital firepower to bombard the demons on the surface of the planet, but with little effect."
Above the Sun Fortress, the Dark Angel's. An officer was describing their battlefield layout to Hu Jin. For them, this war has been very difficult to fight. A large number of worlds are in a state of war and are being attacked by cultists all the time. Countless wars are going on. Countless worlds are constantly raging, but for the time travelers, this war is actually not too difficult to fight. Their enemies have not changed much and are still those chaotic demons.
“It’s not a big problem. We will deploy a regiment of troops here, and then use this world to expand to those worlds that have been affected in this star area, and use this world as the starting point to recover this star area. "Hu Jin looked at the holographic projection star map in front of him. He nodded to the Dark Angel officer, and then began to discuss the battle plan with the company commanders of his regiment.
It is worth mentioning here that after Ryan returned, he reorganized the Dark Angels' army and changed the main cities of the Dark Angels' armies back to the strategic composition of the Great Crusade era. This would be very It is convenient for him to re-manage the Dark Angels and organize the Dark Angels to fight.
Wang Ming also knew about this situation. Wang Ming was very happy to see other legions returning to the command mode of the Great Expedition era. After all, compared to this era, those legions were still on the Great Expedition. The military composition of the era was even more capable of large-scale combat.
Legions and Chapters, these two concepts are not the same. The Legions Astartes are the real force that can conquer the galaxy, while the Chapters Astartes are just those things written by Guilliman They were just restrictions imposed. Those things did limit the possibility of a large-scale rebellion by the Astartes, but they also completely cut off the empire's ability to conduct an unprecedented large-scale conquest. There were pros and cons, but specifically, in the era of the Great Rebellion, Afterwards, this is indeed the best plan for a reform program for a while.
However, the empire regards this thing as tradition, which can only be said to be on the wrong track.
"We will start deploying in this world, and at the same time we will deal with all the demons in this world. The specific combat plan will be determined two hours before we leave for that world. Is there anything else you want to say?"
Wang Ming looked at the time-travelers in front of him. He told the time-travelers around him about the war process that he would have to deal with in the future. Wang Ming now planned to disperse all the remaining troops and recall the first regiment at the same time. , allowing the time travelers to regroup to launch a huge battle.
“Report, there is no problem.”
“Guaranteed to complete the mission!”
The travelers looked at Wang Ming, they all had a feeling about the coming war. The feeling of eagerness to try, this is the power of Khorne affecting their emotions, but in terms of boosting morale, this influence may also have a good effect. Anyway, the time travelers cannot be corrupted by Chaos. , even if they set up an altar to the Chaos Evil God and pretended to believe in the Chaos Evil God, their emotions would not be able to provide any power to the Chaos Evil God. After all, their souls were special, and they were also protected by the Emperor. Has been tampered with.
After determining the specific battle plan, Wang Ming led the time travelers into the battlefield. The first world they had to face was a feudal world. The local civilization level was not very high, and it was also part of the Renaissance Expedition. A fish that slipped through the net, the Renaissance Expedition will re-establish a complete civilization system on all recovered worlds, but this world has not caught up with the east wind of the Renaissance Expedition.
Because when the Renaissance Expedition reached them, the Blood Expeditionary Army had already arrived. Before they could enjoy the civilization improvement brought by the Renaissance Expedition, they were directly involved in a huge war. Among them, the local planetary defense forces, as well as the local nobles, big and small, are now forced to join this battle under the heavy pressure of the imperial authorities.
All military systems in this world have been disintegrated. They were replaced by the empire’s combat system. The Astartes entered the battlefield, the Astra Militarum descended on the earth, and the local All armed forces, large and small, were unified and reorganized into the Planetary Defense Force.
They were equipped with weapons that had been eliminated from the hands of the former Astra Militarum, and joined the battlefield with the Galaxy Army. Compared with the Astra Militarum, which had experienced hundreds of battles, these local armed forces were in this kind of situation. On the battlefield, they are like a group of children holding guns. In this world's war, their average survival time is not even three hours.
Collapse, escape, suicide, and rebellion are common in the planetary defense forces organized by these local armed forces. It can be said that the deserters and traitors who need to be shot every day are actually more numerous than those demons Even more were killed. This situation was actually very normal when demons continued to wreak havoc on the planet and local armed forces and imperial forces struggled to support themselves.
After all, the only mortal warriors who can guarantee their will to fight in front of demons are those Astra Militarum warriors who are not afraid of life and death, and the mortal auxiliaries of the 21st Legion. Apart from this, the only ones who can do this The Planetary Defense Force probably only has Cartier’s white shield.
"Put this devil bastard close before hitting him. Lasers are useless at this distance. There are also heavy weapons. Pay attention to the two heavy weapons on the body and let them cross each other to maximize the use of firepower. . ”
On the battlefield of this world, in the streets of the main city of Icardia, among the countless broken ruins, are the local planetary defense forces, the Astra Militarum, and the Imperial Army. The Stats were guarding the city, on a very small position in such a city.
An Astra Militarum officer was leading a few recruits to defend a position. They looked at the demons in front of them and clenched their weapons. They actually didn’t have many heavy weapons. It's not because they don't have many heavy weapons, but most of the large number of heavy weapons were destroyed by the terrifying demon that appeared on the battlefield in the first battle a month ago.
Their regiment originally had a large number of Leman Russ tanks and Chimera armored vehicles, but in that battle, most of these heavy armored firepower were destroyed by the big demon, and the only remaining ones they had Armored firepower is still defending the main street where the demons are attacking, and they only have some individual heavy weapons in their hands, but the firepower of these individual heavy weapons does not provide much.
After all, you can't expect to use two heavy bolters to defend an entire street from demon attacks. If you can really use two heavy bolters to defend an entire street from demons attacking your position, then you It's best to take a closer look at your own position to see if the Emperor has appeared on your position and directly sent you a living saint disguised as your comrade-in-arms. Otherwise, there is really nothing you can do. explained.
The soldiers on this position looked at the demons in front of them. They didn't think they could block them, but they could still delay them. Although their sacrifices wouldn't delay much, at least It can reduce some pressure on the large troops on the main street. You must know that the armored troops of the various regiments on the main street and the angels are struggling to support them. There are too many of these demons and they are overwhelming.
