"Come on, drink this cup of coffee so you can keep watch tonight!" "The braised meat and oatmeal with protein chunks is ready————" "One more song from your hometown, one more!" The air was filled with the aroma of food, entangled with the bitter taste of coffee and the smell of cigarettes, overshadowing the smell of gunpowder. The simple banquet was full of laughter and joy. After experiencing so many hardships and even the threat of death, the Astra Militarum soldiers and their officers who could finally relax were simply celebrating their victory. They used kettles filled with coffee, tea or sugar water as wine glasses, clinking glasses with each other, happily exchanging feelings after the war. The few Leitlings used all the normal food they could find on hand - including the famous synthetic food such as "corpse starch" and "nutritional paste" - to cook meals that were at least delicious on the fire. The Star Army who could sing some songs from their hometown or perform some more interesting performances became the stars of the banquet. Whenever they made a sufficiently exciting move or said an unexpected joke, the whole camp would be filled with a wave of joy. However, not all Astra Militarum soldiers were attending the banquet. In other words, only one Astra Militarum soldier was present. Did not attend the banquet. That is, Political Commissar Caikins, who approved this victory meeting. "These are the key documentary evidence we collected in the Upper Hive region, which can prove that the ruling family of this planet has betrayed the Empire. Then, these are the evidence collected by the Astartes during the battle, which can supplement the rebellion in Hive One." On a Chimaira armored vehicle, a Star Army officer chess piece controlled by the Political Commissar Sister was methodically handing over several boxes of documents to Political Commissar Caggins, to help the Political Commissar have something to show for himself when facing investigations from the Military Affairs Department or more troublesome departments in the future - of course, these documents had all been purified by Liang Feifan's Grey Knights to ensure that there was no Chaos contamination hidden within them.
"No, these are your contributions. Our group is just..." Commissar Caikins, who knew the weight of these documents, was shocked and refused repeatedly - although, although, he really wanted a great credit, to get a better afterlife for the brothers who died in his regiment, and to get glory for the living people in his regiment, but he knew that in the matter of returning the Jordis No. 1 Hive to the hands of the Empire, their regiment was actually just a "pendant"! "Here, these are the rewards for your warriors who are not afraid of sacrifice and insist on fighting for the Emperor." Political Commissar Keggins had no choice but to accept the boxes, as his sister forced them upon him, saying that they were what his regiment deserved. Knowing that it would be impolite to refuse, Political Commissar Keggins had no choice but to thank her while accepting the boxes. However, what Political Commissar Keggins did not expect was that there was an even bigger surprise to come. "These are the equipment supply lists that the Mechanicus has given you. After careful calculations, they believe that these supplies are necessary for you. Then, these are the supply lists of food, medicine bottles and other supplies that we have left for you. You can send someone to check the accounts and take over later." Before Commissar Keggins could finish his words of thanks, two lists were presented to him. Looking at the densely written lists of various supplies, Commissar Keggins felt his hands and feet briefly out of control for a second before realizing something. "You're leaving?" "Yes, the culprit of the rebellion in this world has been annihilated. We will go to the next battlefield together with the Astartes Brothers." The political commissar who said this had a bit of helplessness in her tone - after the patriarch of the Genestealers was annihilated, Big E reminded them that the "intensity of obsession" that maintained his power projected into the real world of the Warhammer universe was decreasing, and their pawns could only move around for a week at most - Chaos, Spare Ribs, Black Bean Sprouts and other non-Imperial pawns didn't even last three days. So, the Hammer guys took a look and discussed with Big E, and decided to leave a little more for the warriors of the Empire. "We will bring this world completely and fully back to the Empire's embrace." Understanding that the supplies left behind were not just supplies but also a responsibility, Commissar Caikins nodded, stretched out her hands, and took the two lists, which were heavy in some senses. Looking at Commissar Caikins's serious expression, the Commissar suddenly felt that they might be able to leave more things for these imperial warriors. "Wait here for a moment. I'll go ask the Mechanicus if they can get you some more valuable supplies." —————————————After the Banquet———————————————————— “These are all ours???” Looking at the three Chimera troop carriers in front of him, which looked a bit battle-scarred but obviously had no problems with their performance, Lieutenant Borison almost suspected that he was hallucinating. Although, Chimera troop carriers were not rare in the Astra Militarum, there were not many Astra Militarum infantry regiments that could have their own Chimera. After all, the Empire had always divided infantry, artillery and armored troops into solid groups, and the mechanized infantry regiments that were qualified to touch Chimera were all well-known guys! "Yes, these are the programs of the Mechanicus that the Chimera took away. In this case, it won't be a big problem for the Military Affairs Department to ask about it - they are not qualified to control the ideas of the Mechanicus." In fact, not to mention Lieutenant Borison, even Political Commissar Caggins now has a feeling of unreality - before, he was a little worried that the few people he had on hand would not be able to quickly complete the suppression of the remaining areas of Hive City No. 1, and would waste time going to other hive cities. Now, well, with these Chimera armored transports, their mobility and firepower have been improved to a higher level, and they no longer have this problem! "Are they leaving Planet Jodis soon?"
"Well, so the next thing depends on us. We have to take back this world completely and let the flag of the empire fly over the planet Jodis again. Do you have the confidence?" After hearing what Commissar Keggins said, Lieutenant Borison showed a 'natural' smile on his face. "Of course, Commissar." ——————————————On the Glorious Queen———————————————————————— "You can really leave the gear behind..." "I thought we could only use the equipment on the Queen of Glory to leave them some individual equipment and logistical supplies. I didn't expect that I could forcibly "summon" a vehicle by sacrificing chess pieces?" "I didn't expect that either, because before, I had no way to leave them even a little bit of resources. Therefore, I thought that leaving them some simple resources was the limit." On the bridge of the Queen of Glory, the Hammers - including Big E - were reviewing the battle together, and of course they were mostly chatting. Among them, the fact that the Commissar Sister left a few Chimaira troop carriers for Commissar Caggins and others was repeatedly mentioned because even Big E himself did not expect that he could do it - although this behavior was just 'the Emperor sacrificed the Hammer's vehicle chess pieces without any additional units, and summoned the same number of chess pieces as the sacrificed chess pieces, with the same signal, and without an owner within the allowed number range. The chess pieces that were responded to will disappear permanently, and the chess pieces that were not responded to will restore their appearance after the sacrifice and enter a one-month recovery period'. However, Big E had never done this before! "It's a pity that only three Chimeras responded to the call this time. I thought I could send them a Chimera platoon. The thing you dragged out with your Big E should be considered a holy relic, right? But, my Chimera formation is now missing arms and legs..." Looking at her remaining Chimera, the Political Commissar's tone was very 'sad', and then her sadness was ruthlessly exposed by Big E. "I know you've taken a fancy to my finely painted Chimera - and you all know that I won't let you suffer any loss." "a ha ha ha--" Hearing what Big E said, the political commissar laughed awkwardly. Not wanting to complain about the little tricks of his Hammer friends anymore, Big E activated the screen with his own power, showing the points and spoils that the Hammer friends had obtained after responding to the call. "Come and see what you've reaped, friends." ——————————————Special Postscript—————————————————————————— The Jodis Brave Group They are good at infiltration of nests, siege warfare, and long-term defensive warfare under low supply conditions. They hate mutants. At the same time, the elite members of this group are extremely determined and have extremely devout beliefs in the Emperor. The Battle Sisters who have fought alongside them have given high praise to their willpower and piety. In addition, top secret information, this group possesses a large number of special consecrated weapons. In addition, the real name of this group is the Jodis Holy Relic Group. Although it was called the "Jodis Brave Corps", this Star Army Corps did not come from the Jodis world. On the contrary, due to an extremely shameful betrayal, the predecessor of the Jodis Brave Corps, the Star Army xxxx Corps, almost all of its members died in the first nest of the Jodis world - there is accurate data showing that at the worst time, only one in ten of them survived. Because the world of Jodis was on the dark side of the Empire after the Battle of Cadia, the Empire did not learn what happened on the world of Jodis until the vanguard of the Indomitable Crusade advanced to its vicinity - and it had been twenty years since the rebellion - because the Imperial Regent repeatedly confirmed that there was no possibility that any troops, whether Astartes, Astra Militarum or Mechanicus, could provide support to the Jodis Brave Corps in the battle on the world of Jodis, so the veterans who survived and participated in the battle at that time were subjected to a series of rigorous investigations. As the investigation deepened, the increasingly unbelievable truth alarmed the great Primarch Robert Guilliman, who sent his spokesperson and a guard to the world of Jodis to seek answers. "Father, what on earth are you thinking about?" This was the only sentence spoken by the Imperial Regent Robert Guilliman after reading the top-secret report on the Jodis Regiment. Volume: The Roar of the Morton Hess System 1. Reinforcements from the sky EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS: CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION - Epsilon Level Clearance.
The order of the Morton Hess system has completely collapsed. The large-scale invasion of the Orks on the agricultural world of Marko is only the most insignificant part of the disaster that this system has encountered. The forge world of Baraton and the hive world of Udar have both fallen into the hands of the rebels. Although the loyal Astra Militarum troops and Astartes monks still control the outermost mining world of Sosekhi, it is almost impossible to return the Morton Hess system to the hands of the Empire without sufficient reinforcements. Please ask any Empire that receives this message... ——————The last psychic message received by the Empire's astropaths from Morton Hess before the warp storm engulfed Morton Hess. The sunset is like blood. Slightly dilapidated buildings were piled up in a mess on the rough land of Sosaki, simply resisting the never-ending winds of this mining planet. Tens of thousands of gullies that could be clearly seen even in low-Earth orbit were outlined on the surface of the planet, like numerous scars. The listless brown clouds were quickly torn apart by the wind, and then stubbornly glued together after a few seconds, continuing to wander listlessly in the sky. Occasionally, there would be some sounds like something breaking echoing in the dusty air, but soon these sounds would be swallowed up by the whistling wind. "This is a horrible place. There isn't even a big beast to hunt. I'm already missing the big roasted meat on my home planet." In one place In a well-constructed underground fortification, Dur Howlingfang sat on a stone that had been cut into a sitting shape, gently supporting his chainsaw sword with his right hand, and holding a standard Astartes military ration plate in his left hand and stuffing it into his mouth continuously, accurately cutting off every bit of food with his fangs and then rolling it into his stomach - although the taste of this food could only be described as tragic by the men of the Space Wolves, the energy it could provide was undoubtedly sufficient for the Astartes. "At least in the short term, we still have sufficient supplies. If those mortal troops continue to drag on like this for a while, they will really have to count their oats to survive - this is not a good sign." Enjoying a short break with Dur, Rune Priest Torom Frostscar, who had served for two hundred years, sat cross-legged beside Dur, slightly raised his head, and looked at the slowly setting star of Morton Hess in the sky above his head on the monitoring screen. The gentle rubbing of his teeth revealed the slight restlessness in the heart of this powerful psychic. "So, the runes gave you another revelation, brother?" "No, after the warp storm surrounding this galaxy blew up, the wind of Fenris seemed to be away from my soul. I have never felt it so clearly..." Tolom thought for a long time before he came up with a word. "Dead silence." "Calmness often only serves to brew a more violent roar. Tolom, although I cannot read runes, I still know this principle." "Yes, but the trouble is, I can't see where this storm is going to come from." "No doubt, when the storm blows, the test given to us by the All-Father will also come at the same time..." Before Dur could finish his words, Tolom suddenly opened his eyes wide. Seeing his battle brother like this, Dur immediately tightened his chainsaw sword. "Tolom, did you see anything?" "The storm disturbed it a bit, maybe..." Before Tolom had time to analyze the runes he saw, two meteor-like objects whizzed into the atmosphere of Sosaki one after the other. Dur, who could tell at a glance what the two "meteors" were, jumped up as if his butt was on fire, and rushed to their team's meeting hall with Tolom. "What's going on? How come a battle barge and an Astra Militarum transport ship made an emergency landing on this world at the same time?" —————————————————A few hours ago, in the real world, at Big E’s villa—————————————— In a dedicated spray paint room that is fully equipped, well-ventilated, and has a bunch of free spray paints and pigments available, the fully-armed Liang Feifan is squinting his eyes, carefully painting an Ark Eldar chess piece bit by bit - after completing their first shot in the Warhammer 40K world, the Hammer guys not only exchanged the chess pieces they wanted from Big E, but also got an unexpected reward, that is, Big E unconditionally opened all of his several spray paint rooms of different specifications to the Hammer guys, and allowed the Hammer guys to use his consumables such as spray paint at will. Moreover, Big E also hinted that if they could collect enough valuable spoils for his grand plan - such as the Great Demon Essence collected on the world of Jodis and the skull of the Genestealer Clan - then, if possible, it would not be impossible to build a dedicated spray painting room for each of them on their flagship, the Glorious Queen, with a servo skull to help them... "Hey, I don't know when the next mission will be..." Since the first time he entered the 40K world, he had already proved that Big E was not lying and that they were really a group of "outsiders" in the 40K world, Liang Feifan found that he actually hoped to command his own pawns on the Queen of Glory to continue fighting for the Empire. Seeing that the other Hammers had brought a bunch of military boxes to Big E's house like him, Liang Feifan believed that they must have similar ideas to his. Of course, Liang Feifan also knew that it was useless to think about this kind of thing. After all, Big E's rules were very absolute. If the Queen of Glory was not called, the Hammers would stay in it for ten days or half a month, which would only add unnecessary burden to Big E. Although Big E didn't say it, his chair that looked like a golden throne and was obviously used for something had been discovered by the Hammers who visited him every day... Just as Liang Feifan was thinking about something in his mind and carefully finishing the last stroke of the chess piece's painting, a light in the spray paint room suddenly lit up. Seeing the light on, Liang Feifan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly cleaned up the table, took off his disposable protective equipment and stuffed it into the trash can, turned off the ventilation device, ran out of the spray paint room, came to the storage room, dragged his military box, and rushed to the living room - soon, he heard the voice of Big E.
"...These two ships are lent to you to force your troops to land, so that your actions this time will be less likely to be suspected by the Empire's warriors. In addition, I have also prepared the chess pieces that can carry a ray of your consciousness according to your requirements. This time you can try out their performance - be careful, this battle is not as good as the last time, because in the Empire's historical records , when these things happened in the Morton Hess system, there was no subspace storm. If you fail, it may cause the abnormal spread of Chaos forces in the Empire, thus triggering a series of bad chain reactions. " "Was it disturbed in the past? Could this warp storm be caused by Tzeentch?" Liang Feifan, who was dragging a military box into the living room, responded directly to Da E's words, then laughed embarrassedly. "It can only be it. If I'm not mistaken, Tzeentch is using the method of 'interfering with the past' to spy on future changes - especially the fate of the planet Jodis, and the Morton Hess galaxy has become its sacrifice for finding changes. In the past, this method was indeed very useful for the messy timeline of my hometown galaxy. Regardless of success or failure, changes will bring satisfaction to Tzeentch, but this time..." When he said that, a smile flashed across Big E's eyes. "The changes come from a place that Tzeentch cannot possibly reach, let alone sense." 2. The Hammer Force Arrives at Sosuke "Hurry up--" "Don't rush to drive all the vehicles down! There are a bunch of intact vehicles neatly placed on the ground, it doesn't look like a forced landing! Egg! Stop playing 01010001001! Let your oil man pretend to pry open the door!" "Warlock, please don't speak. It's normal for Krieg officers to be quiet. If you speak and reveal any flaws, it will be troublesome." "God's Chosen, if you are going to descend into consciousness later, don't jump around too much outside! Your descended body is a dark crow!" "I'll be in charge of the Riddler later. Political Commissar, remember to smooth things over for me. I'll also let my Imperial Fist say a few words for me. By the way, Political Commissar, is there really nothing wrong with your IG group settings?" Group 6 94 93 61 35 "Don't worry. The Military Affairs Department probably can't figure out the number of Astralis Corps. Besides, the ship carrying my chess pieces also has a motor oiler. As long as we don't run into any outrageous guys, we can basically get away with it. But you, when you control the White Bean Sprout Prophet, don't make a mess of your words. After all, in some sense, it is the consensus of the Empire and Chaos to eliminate the aliens first." "Don't worry, I've prepared a gift package of riddles. I guarantee that the imperial people in this world won't understand what I'm saying. But then again, with the support of the three founding groups, U Group, Iron Hand, Imperial Fist, and Fearless, no one would dare to doubt that there is a problem unless the Primarch himself denies it, right?" "You also have to take into account a lot of oil guys and the IG group with shadow swords. Under normal circumstances, no one dares to question our decision. By the way, how are the teams of Silence and Abathur doing now?" "Let me ask - they said they are drifting towards the asteroid belt. There are some areas over there with strong life reactions. They plan to go over there to confirm whether the people inside are loyal or not." "good." In a desert in Sosaki, two huge machines, about a kilometer apart, were tilted and sunk deep into the ground, with electric sparks and smoke constantly coming out of them. Various flying machines that looked small and exquisite but at least the size of a person were constantly rotating around them, opening hatches, welding roads, or simply and roughly pulling out some small vehicles with the people inside. A little further away from them, several simple temporary camps had been established, and tall Astartes warriors, Astra Militarum, and some Mechanicus Skitarii were installing equipment, building shelters, or patrolling inside. Everything seems so orderly. ———————————————The dividing line of the Space Wolves———————————————— "Old Wolf, this?" In a ruin some distance away from the desert, the Space Wolves were carefully observing the forced landing area of the two space battleships, trying to determine whether the soldiers coming out of them were enemies. In fact, this was determined ten minutes after they arrived at the observation point. However, what these Fenris men were struggling with now was... There are too many Space Marines here! "The Ultramarines, the Iron Hands, the Imperial Fists... How did they end up on the same barge?" After a quick mental calculation, he discovered that there were at least two hundred Space Marines from three different groups currently operating near the barge that had made an emergency landing, and judging by the situation, the number would increase. The captain of this Space Wolves squad, the Grey Hunter Galli Wolf, who had fought in the starry sea for more than two hundred years, fell into deep thought. "They have Fearless with them. It doesn't look like they got lost and landed in this system surrounded by a warp storm. Hey! Russ! Those mortals actually have Shadow Swords!" "They are an armored regiment, and very well-equipped. I strongly suspect that their equipment comes directly from the Mechanicus that accompanies them."
Hearing Dur's exclamation, Gary shifted his gaze and observed the mortals in the distance - immediately, he was attracted by the pile of armored vehicles of all sizes that were still being transported down from the ship - he dared to swear in the name of the All-Father that in all his years of fighting in the universe, he had never seen a regiment of the Astra Militarum with such luxurious equipment! "Torome, what did the winds of Fenris say?" After observing for a while, I determined that the number of Space Marines had stabilized at about two Over a hundred, approaching three hundred, with no further upward momentum, Gary turned his head slightly and looked at his own Rune Priest. "No." "Then it's obvious what we have to do—" Gary stood up from the ruins as he said this, stretched his shoulders, adjusted his helmet, and a hint of cunning flashed in his pupils.
