The Emperor’s Angel of Death

"...Soshyan Chapter Commander, this is the laurel crown bestowed by the Council of High Lords, as well as the flag, and the command sword. I personally suggest that the handover will be more formal at the oath meeting."

Soshyan doesn't care much about what the messenger is saying, and he doesn't even look at the tokens that represent the supreme glory. He is full of three words now—

Why?

why!

Why did Tyra come here all of a sudden! And still at this time!

"Captain of the Soshyan Chapter?"

The messenger who was still holding the letter of appointment did not respond even after calling twice, and was a little embarrassed for a while. Then came Sander and said to Soshyan in a low voice:

"I know you're confused right now, we're all the same, but the appointment has come down and it's impossible to change it again."

Soshyan was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and reluctantly took the letter of appointment, then turned to give it to Ustad, who was also very stunned behind him.

Not only Ustad, but the company commanders such as Maximilian who came with Soshyan were dumbfounded.

Then Soshyan arranged for the envoy to stay at the official residence, but before leaving, the messenger also reminded Soshyan that the High Lord Council required him and the Alliance of Suffering to take the oath to Sagan Prime a year before Standard Terra and launch an expedition .

But the more so, the more confused and annoyed Soshyan is!

Because this means one thing first, their plan to surprise Huron was completely bankrupt - in order to organize the expedition, Terra must have begun to mobilize the troops around the Maelstrom, and even this appointment has already reached the Maelstrom, Huron has a high probability It was already known that someone was going to attack him, and it was himself.

The original plan has completely become a waste of paper, but Soshyan doesn't know how to take the next step.

High lords, this is a complete mess!

"make trouble!"

In the welcoming hall of the monastery fortress, after the company commanders and the people from the White Sanctuary greeted Lesander, Soshyan immediately informed everyone about the appointment he received, and Alash scolded him directly. .

"Is there something wrong with the high lords' brains? Even if they want to expedition to the Maelstrom, why would they transfer us in the Storm Star Field? Can there be so many Astartes in the Extreme Star Field? Aren't there Ultramarines?"

His words have also been recognized by many soldiers. Laishand has never seen the new White Templar Chapter Commander. In fact, he is not even familiar with the former Randall. After all, the White Templar is too low-key, but when it comes to He knew that Randall was also very excited after being assassinated by the Red Pirates, and said that he would report the matter to the mountain array.

Of course, Laishand also knew about Soshyan's plan to surprise Huron for the second time, and understood his shock and anger even more.

"Regarding this matter......"

As soon as Lai Shande opened his mouth, everyone closed their mouths. After all, Fist of the Empire is a start-up group, and this face is still to be given.

And as the chapter stationed in Terra, they must know the interior better.

"The captain of the Pew chapter went to the palace to question the council of the high lords as soon as he learned of this appointment, and when the high lords gave the answer, the battle groups around the maelstrom to prevent Huron's raid and plunder were already The limit, it is impossible to carry out large-scale mobilization. If you want to go on an expedition, you can only mobilize troops from non-theater areas. The other thing is... cough, Soshyan, you have successively defeated Huron and Abaddon, which is currently the empire's record against Chaos Heresy. Good Chapter Master, it makes sense for you to be the leader."

Soshyan really couldn't say anything for a while, because the high lords were indeed right.

but-

"But I am young after all. It is obvious that the Astartes monastery has so many respected elders who also have outstanding military achievements."

"Ah, Pew said that too, but the High Lords said that Macharius was not too old when he went on the expedition."

"Tsk, I've finished talking to them."

"Yeah, so in the end, Pew couldn't do anything, so he sent me here. In addition to escorting the messenger, the second task is to assist you in this expedition. For this reason, I also brought a team consisting of the first company and the second company. Special Company."

"Sword Comes"

Soshyan held the opponent's right hand with both hands excitedly.

"Thank you very much for your support and Vladimir Chapter Master!"

"In addition to us, Pew also sent signals of assistance to several other subgroups. At present, the Tianshi Chapter has responded. They will go to the Maelstrom area to join the expedition, and the Black Sanctuary may also send a troop."

This time, Soshyan was really touched. After all, the future of the expedition is uncertain, and the one who is willing to answer the call spontaneously is definitely the brother of the brothers.

Laishand patted Soshyan on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"For thousands of years, people have almost forgotten that the sons of Dorne are the most staunch guardians of the empire. The expedition is a challenge and an opportunity. I believe that no son of Dorne will ignore it."

Although Soshyan's nervousness was slightly relieved by the support of the Imperial Fist family, the reality was still grim.

He took out the two official documents handed to him together with the appointment letter. One was from the Ministry of Military Affairs. It clearly stated that the expedition was expected to require 1-1.5 billion troops. There are only about 300 million astral forces that can be transferred, mainly from Cadian, Krieg, Valhalla, Mordian, Armageddon and Taran.

For the rest of the troops, Soshyan himself needs to go to the Maelstrom area to organize a local garrison or "recruit on the spot" - however, Soshyan, the lord commander, doesn't even know how many local troops there are.

As for the fleet, the Navy's official document is relatively simple. Due to the special location of the Maelstrom, this expedition will draw a fleet from the Storm Star Region, the Sun Star Region and the Ultimate Star Region. At the same time, the local garrison fleet in the Maelstrom will also It will be deployed by Soshyan, but most of these fleets must be used to prevent the foreign plundering activities of the Red Pirates, and they are not really useful.

For the three fleets to be fully assembled, the time given by the Navy is 1-3 years, and it depends on whether the warp channel is stable.

As for the strength of these three fleets, it was not mentioned in the official document, but Soshyan felt that he had better not have too high expectations, and not the entire destroyer formation to perfunctory himself.

The only good news is that several casting worlds around him will provide him with weapons and supplies, but it is still unknown whether he can arm so many people. In addition, since the supply lines in the Maelstrom area have long been damaged, the Ministry of Military Affairs is very friendly. "Reminder" Soshyan that it is better to supply on-site ~www.readwn.com~ rather than expecting a supply fleet sent by the Ministry of Military Affairs from faraway places.

It has to be said that these **** are well aware of their abilities.

It means that Soshyan is still a bare commander, and he takes office with a piece of paper.

If any high lord stood before him, Soshyan would not hesitate to shove the commission into his asshole.

Everyone present also read the official document, and no one was satisfied.

"This is too much!"

Ustad frowned as he looked at Kumon.

"The most recent Sabat expedition to the Empire gathered nearly one billion elite astral forces, but it was a chaotic cluster dominated by mortals. The battle situation was still very anxious. In the end, even the war commander was killed, and what is Huron? Tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of chaotic space warriors, the power is second only to the chaotic warlords of the great predator Abaddon, and the difficulty of the two is not in the same space!"
