Chapter 1995 Decisive Battle Deployment
After a brief strategic introduction, Soshyan looked at Caen, the leader of the Crimson Blade Chapter.
The Crimson Blades Chapter has a "quite interesting" story. It was previously called the Swords of Haldros, and it was for a long time after the Chapter was established. They believed themselves to be the descendants of the Ultramarines until fifty years ago, when they chanced upon a man named Asritos the Grim, and the truth behind their origins was revealed. (Scene restoration - Asritos (clothed): Have you heard of the story of Angel Walk? In the seventh year of the thirty-first millennium of the Terra calendar, Holy Terra was attacked by the traitor Horus. The Emperor, who might have been killed by the spirit of vengeance, was saved by Sanguinius who arrived in time and covered the Lord of Mankind with his wings. Sanguinius was killed by Horus on the spot but still stood there. Later, in order to commemorate the heroism of this angel primarch, the blood angels of each generation would tattoo the angel statue on their backs.)
As they found their true parent group, Halder The Swords of Loth were renamed the Crimson Blades and finally found answers to the strange symptoms that had been plaguing them - blood thirst, which they had been trying to hide from those around them.
When he learned about this, Soshyan was also quite emotional. If it weren't for the World Engine and Brother Seid, would they be like the Sword of Haldros Chapter and still bear the history of the Sons of Dorne? and title, but from another perspective, even if this kind of founding group still has sub-groups, the blood may be mixed. Does that mean that in addition to the White Templar, there may be more descendants of the former Undead Army that continue to this day?
It's a pity that this kind of thing requires fate. After all, Suoshiyang doesn't have the ability to investigate one by one.
"Captain of the Caen Chapter, I hope that your regiment can go to Badab and assist Marshal Helbrecht in his attack. They are in great need of Space Marines now."
Wearing red Caen, who was wearing armor and had a noble face and short blond hair, immediately stood upright, clenched his fist and tapped his chest lightly.
Since it was not long after "Returning to the Clan", the Crimson Blade and other blood angels were still somewhat unfamiliar, so although the Flesh Tearers also returned to Sagan with Soshyan, the two The group has almost no contact.
On the contrary, Caen has always shown that he wants to meet the Weepers.
"I obey, Your Majesty the Supreme Lord Commander."
In fact, Soshyan also talked with Caen privately. It turns out that the Crimson Blade joined the expedition not because of Dante, but because their home planet left first. The maelstrom is relatively close, and the second is that the red pirates attacked their homeland twenty years ago, but they were repelled.
The Crimson Blades are very particular about retaliation. After hearing that the Empire launched an expedition against the Red Pirates, Chapter Master Caon withdrew from the war against the Greenskins and led three companies to assist in the battle.
Soshyan nodded and turned to another imager.
“But we can’t just wait for the results from Badab. Now that the matters in the rear have basically been dealt with, I decided to lead the remaining troops to Angstrom and use this as a springboard to attack Corkeria attacks ”
Then, he looked at Azrael.
“Captain Azrael, you will lead the Devotees Chapter and the Disciples of Caliban Chapter to form the Maggo Strike Group, and lead a part of the Astra Militarum to attack the Red Corsairs’ Maggo Star Cluster. The main purpose is to defeat the enemy's space defense facilities. There are not many habitable worlds in that area, so we only need to control some of the worlds as forward nodes for the logistics transportation line."
Azrael also stood at attention and used his fists. Smash the chest lightly.
"Yes, Your Excellency, Supreme Lord Commander."
"Of course, I summoned everyone here not to give orders. As you all know, from the time I took over as Chapter Commander to now, I have also However, with more than fifty years, most of the people here have served longer than me. I believe that everyone must have a deeper understanding of war than me, so I will listen to everyone’s opinions.”
"Commander Soshyan, I don't understand anything."
Tanak, the sixth company commander of the Star Dragon Chapter, suddenly spoke. The veteran had obvious scars on his face, but the scars All embedded with electronic circuits, making his face glow like a cyborg. He wears blue armor and a white dragon logo on his shoulder.
There are rumors that this regiment is a sub-chapter of the Iron Hands Chapter, but neither party has clearly confirmed it. Two companies of the Star Dragon came this time, but they came not because of the expedition itself, but because of another battle group, the Blood Sword Chapter.
The Blood Sword Chapter's home planet and the Star Dragon's home planet are quite close, basically in the same galaxy. The two sides have maintained a friendly and close alliance since their establishment. .
During this period, the Blood Sword Chapter was once forced to conduct a redemption expedition to wash away their shame due to the outbreak of Chaos Rebellion on their home planet. When witnessing the Blood Swords being forced to carry out a redemption expedition, the Star Dragon immediately reached out to provide assistance to them, and was completely Spontaneously and not because of a matter of debt or honor.
It is quite rare for two warbands that have no blood relationship to establish such a deep brotherhood. Generally speaking, this situation is limited to battle brothers within the same bloodline.
After the Blood Swords received a message from Baal, hoping that they would join the expedition to help the expeditionary force, the Blood Swords Chapter, which happened to have little action, immediately discussed the matter with the Star Dragon, and finally decided to send part of their companies from both sides to join the expedition. Expeditionary Force.
Hearing Tanak's words, Soshyan nodded.
“I was negligent in this matter, Captain Tanak, it’s like this——”
Soshyan then relayed the situation on Badab's side.
"I see. Then Huron should still have high hopes for this lone army. Can we try to open a gap and let the Red Pirates send reinforcements, and then we adopt the tactic of encircling the point to fight for reinforcements."
As the leading tactician among the Star Dragons, Tanak has a very flexible combat style, so he immediately considers how to eliminate the enemy's vitality.
But Soshyan shook his head.
"Huron will not send anyone here. First, Angstrom is in our hands, and everyone can see that reinforcements will be dangerous. Secondly, I think Huron is also considering the Fourth Army. The possibility of intervention, Honso is also a bargaining chip for Huron. If the Fourth Army can be forced to enter, then even if Badab is finally controlled by the Fourth Army, it is better than being controlled by us, so he will not send anyone to rescue Honso. .”
"I understand."
Tanak thought for a moment and nodded.
"Thank you for your answer."
Soshiyang bent down, put his hands on the operating table of the imager, and looked at everyone.
“Everyone, the people of the Maelstrom have paid a lot for this war, so I hope to end this expedition as completely as possible within 1-2 years, and this requires your great assistance. For the sake of the Emperor , for the empire, for the billions of imperial subjects of the Maelstrom.”
