"Hey! My brother! What the hell is this?" Leman Russ stood in the center of the spacious and magnificent banquet hall, busy organizing a grand banquet.

At this moment, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the unusually heavy breastplate on the trophy rack. A strong sense of curiosity surged in his heart, so he turned to ask the company commanders who were drinking with him.

"Oh, my lord genetic father, to be honest, I don't know what this thing is. Maybe it's just a trophy from a battle." The leading Space Marine captain picked up the wine glass and took a gulp, then burped loudly and answered Leman Russ vaguely.

"So that's how it is..." Leman Russ frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on the mysterious breastplate.

Its surface is covered with traces of time, but one can still vaguely make out a striking Lorraine Cross logo on it.

"This is not in accordance with the Codex Astartes, my Brother..."

"Fuck your Codex Astartes!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for discovering the 11th Legion, the Iris Oath, located in the French Star Region, on the planet Corsica."

"What kind of sissy name is that?"

Yang Cheng looked at the Lorraine Cross and Fleur-de-lis logos that appeared in front of him, and he could tell at a glance that the style of this legion should be French.

Legion Name: Iris Oath

Corps code: 11

Original Name: Louis Bonaparte

Regimental style: First French Empire

Mother planet: Corsica

Army colors: red, white, blue

Legion tactics and specialties: positional warfare, precise and deadly artillery strike tactics, cavalry pursuit and annihilation warfare, high mobility, scattered group harassment warfare, often winning with fewer troops, and possessing strong combat effectiveness.

Legion emblem: Fleur-de-lis and Cross of Lorraine

Battlecry: Let us water our wheat fields with the blood of our enemies! / For freedom! For glory!

Reason for betrayal: Attempted to launch a mutiny in the Imperial Palace on Terra during the Great Crusade, but was eventually crushed by the Legion led by Leman Russ with the cooperation of the Custodes.

The whole story of betrayal: When Louis led his battle-hardened and fearless army to set foot on the vast land he had once conquered, an unprecedented sense of strangeness surged into his heart like a tide.

Once upon a time, the emperor who was high above everyone preached the glorious ideas of freedom and equality to the world, but what appeared before Louis' eyes now was a completely different picture - endless oppression and cruel exploitation followed him everywhere.

Full of anger and confusion, Louis decided to go to the magnificent palace and ask the emperor face to face what was going on.

However, what awaited him was not the majestic and benevolent ruler, but the cold and ruthless face of Malcador.

Facing Louis's doubts, Makado simply said: "We need time. Everything is for survival."

This sentence was like a thunderbolt, striking Louis' heart hard and shocking him.

He tried to argue and refute Malcador's ridiculous statement, but what responded to him was Malcador's extremely powerful psychic power, which suppressed him like a mountain crushing an egg.

"Freedom and equality must be established after the empire is unified, not now." Malcador's cold voice kept echoing in Louis' ears, and every word seemed like a heavy hammer hitting his heartstrings.

At this moment, Louis suddenly realized that the so-called emperor was no different from those greedy and brutal slave owners he had fought hard to overthrow on his own planet. They all regarded others as tools to be used at will.

Louis understood that there was only one way to solve all this, a coup, a coup launched from within the Terra Palace.

At this time, Louis was the first Primarch to become the Imperial Warmaster before Horus. His own mobilization power far exceeded that of other Primarchs. In addition, the Emperor was busy with expeditions and research at the time, so he did not pay attention to Louis' series of actions.

Louis and two Glorious Queen-class ships under his legion entered the solar system and headed straight for Holy Terra.

Louis himself led his Primarch Guards and millions of mortal auxiliaries who were willing to rebel together and ambushed around the Terra Palace. The moment Louis and his Primarch Guards entered the palace, the coup began.

The 1 Primarch Guards, known as the Old Guards, were the most loyal warriors of the Primarch during the hundreds of years of war. As Louis drew his saber and chopped down the first Guardsman, they launched the attack without hesitation.

Hundreds of imperial guards fell under the blades of the Old Guards in an instant. The main reason for achieving such a great victory this time was because they won by surprise attack. If they fought head-on, the losses of the Old Guards would reach more than half.

After conquering the outer walls of the palace, Louis arranged the next tasks for the tens of thousands of Space Marines in his legion, and he himself would lead the Old Guard to face Malcador in person.

However, what Louis did not expect was that Leman Russ was also in the palace at this moment.

When Louis was about to march into the inner city of the palace, Leman Russ suddenly rushed out with his legion and called for support in time.

During this time, Louis continued to fight with Leman Russ until Malcador walked out of the palace.

"You disappoint me so much, Old 11..."

Malcador looked at everything in front of him, then used his psychic power to control all the old guards, and then slowly walked in front of Louis.

"Are you going to kill him?"

"Lock him up first and wait until the Emperor returns. As for those Space Marines of the 11th Legion, kill them all."

"For freedom and glory! Do not take away our Primarch! Our Emperor!"

The remaining Old Guards rushed towards Malcador without hesitation, but were soon killed by the Custodians and Leman Russ.

"Am I becoming my father's executioner?"

"From now on, this responsibility will be yours. The Emperor will probably trust you."

After saying this, Malcador walked back to the palace, and the task of cleaning up Corsica fell on Leman Russ.

But when Leman Russ's fleet arrived at Corsica, he found that everyone on the planet had committed suicide, following the true emperor in their hearts.

After Leman Russ sent a fleet to execute an extermination order on Corsica and nearby planets, he chose to leave.

Subsequently, all information about the 11th Legion was sealed, and the 11th Legion became the first legion to be destroyed in its entirety during the Great Crusade, including its gene-seed.

"Wait a minute, system, the genetic defect of this legion will not make all the Space Marines under its command yearn for freedom and equality? Are you sure that this legion will not be created to shoot the High Lords first?"
