Warhammer: My Brother Is the Emperor

Chapter 54 Horus Reflects, The Problem of the Shadow Moon Wolf

In the eyes of the Shadow Moon Wolf Legion, this is just another ordinary gang fight, as long as they dare to fight, rush and kill, they can win.

However, their enemies are not human beings. Each black bean sprout is a master of guerrilla warfare with first-class mobility. With the help of terrain and vehicles, they maneuver flexibly, lure the enemy deep, and divide and surround the Horus Legion.

The terrain of Comoros is complex, and the Shadow Moon Wolf Army gradually dispersed, surrounded by black bean sprouts in some parts, and fell into a tough street battle.

The Giant God Soldiers actually had the same experience, but they kept supporting each other and supporting each other during their advance. Under the steel wall made up of shields, even if the black bean sprouts were full of steel teeth, they couldn't eat them at all.

Horus, who was staying in the spaceship, was in a hurry, and said to the emperor: "Father, can I personally participate in the battle?"

The emperor nodded, calmly said: "Go!"

Horus took the airdrop pod and landed directly in the besieged legion, smashed several black bean sprouts to death in an instant, and then rushed out of the airdrop pod, killing a lot.

The original body joined the battle, and the morale of the Horus Legion was greatly boosted. With the addition of the original body's combat power, they killed a large number of black bean sprouts and escaped from the crisis.

Horus raised his arms and said boldly: "Boys, gather towards me! Charge in groups, don't disperse!"

Hearing the Primarch's call, the canned legions dispersed and gathered around the Primarch, rushing towards the front, a bit faster than the Colossus.

They blocked and killed gods all the way, and Buddhas blocked and killed Buddhas. If there were no accidents, accidents would happen.

The ground in front suddenly collapsed, and a large number of monsters spewed out from the ground. Among them, there were twisted abominations, sharp-clawed terrors, ether hounds, and Uguls that could be named, and many others could not be named.

A long time ago, the underground was a Haemonculi base.

The Giant God Soldiers also encountered them. These monsters, regardless of whether they were enemies or friends, attacked both the imperial soldiers and the nearby black bean sprouts.

When encountering them, it is wise to bypass them and let them go to the black bean sprouts.

Some of the Shadow Moon Wolves avoided it, but some did not. They insisted on rushing up to kill monsters, laughing loudly as they killed them:
"The monsters here are much more unique than the nest. I want to chop off my head, decorate the walls of my mansion, and enrich my collection! Hahaha!"

Some said in disgust while chopping: "Such disgusting monsters, you have the heart to collect them, they are so ugly, I want to hack them to death!"

When Horus saw this in the distance, he exploded in anger, and roared angrily, "You idiots! These monsters don't know who they are, and any fool knows how to let them bite the black bean sprouts!"

"Hurry up and disengage, or the military law will be engaged!"

After Horus made some micromanagement, the legion no longer competed with the monsters. However, at this time, the formation spread out again, and many legion soldiers were separated and surrounded again.

Horus had to fight the fire everywhere, but sometimes he was not in time, and there were sporadic casualties soon. Three Shadow Moon Wolf soldiers were beheaded by black bean sprouts.

At this moment, the emperor said: "It's time, come back!"

The Giant God Soldiers began to retreat in an orderly manner, and the shields formed an array to support each other, and slowly approached the spaceship, but the Shadow Moon Wolf Legion did not move forward.

The black bean sprouts detonated the ground around them, creating a large deep pit, and at the same time relied on the debris of the ruins to block them, causing the Shadow Moon Wolf to retreat slowly.

At this time, Said looked at the Emperor, and the Emperor nodded. Said thought, and the Colossus moved towards Horus.

Horus was in a bit of a panic at this time, and Black Bean Sprout was relying on the terrain to slow down his army, unable to advance or retreat.

This time, the Black Bean Sprouts line was in chaos, being bombarded by ion cannons and heat capacity rays, and giant soldiers appeared behind the line.

Black Bean Sprouts was attacked from the front and back, and soon retreated across the board.

The Horus retreat channel was opened, and the two teams returned to the battleship smoothly.

Afterwards, the Emperor released a virus bomb, turning Comoros into a sea of ​​flames, and then burned it again with psionic energy, leaving a piece of rubble and walking away.

In this battle, three cans of Horus died, and there were no casualties among the giant soldiers.

Although Horus's casualties were not large, his own team's performance can be seen in the eyes. In the end, if the giant god soldiers did not rescue them, the Shadow Moon Wolf would have lost a layer of skin.

The emperor calmly said: "Horus, your legion is showing many problems, do you know the reason?"

Horus lost his face, and was still ashamed in front of his beloved father, Said quickly comforted him:
"Xiao He, don't need to be depressed. You have only taken over the legion for a month. It is already good to be able to fight like this. As long as you fight a few more battles, the situation will get better."

Horus said gratefully:
"Uncle, you don't have to comfort me. I know what the problem is. The legion's individual heroism is rampant, and personal honor is higher than collective interests. This will ultimately affect the efficiency of the war. If it is not corrected, it will be detrimental to the Great Expedition."

In the end, he concluded: "In the final analysis, the gang habits in the hive capital have not changed, and there is still a gap between them and the real army."

The Emperor then asked, "Do you know how to correct it?"

The emperor's tone was gentle, and he was relieved that Horus corrected himself, and Said was also very surprised. If he were a screwball like Perturabo or Mortarion, he would have hated Said long ago.

However, Horus didn't. He generously admitted his mistakes and pointed out his own problems. With this emotional intelligence, it's no wonder that he can become the future war master!
Horus thought for a while, glanced at Said, and then said:
"As His Royal Highness said, the army lacks a unified thinking, does not have enough understanding of the goals of the war, and does not know why they are fighting, so ideological education needs to be strengthened!"

Said was taken aback for a moment, and looked at the emperor, who said calmly, "Speak!"

Horus thought for a while and said: "I support His Royal Highness's suggestion, arm your mind with the truth of the empire, understand the enemies of the empire, and understand the meaning of war!"

Said looked expectant, the Emperor did not make a decision immediately, but looked at Malcador: "What do you think about this?"

Malcador said with a smile: "A certain degree of ideological education is indeed necessary. Telling them the purpose of the war is better than their wild imagination."

In the end, the emperor nodded: "Sayyed, let's form the Imperial Truth Party and spread the imperial truth."

Said was overjoyed, and suddenly felt that the flowers were bright, and he immediately agreed:

"Understood, Brother Huang! The Imperial Army will be an invincible iron army commanded by the Emperor, capable of fighting holy wars, and loyal!"

However, the emperor shook his head: "But going to war too much will affect the efficiency of the expedition, so the existing system of the army will not change. You need to establish an independent new system."

After some communication, Saeed understood the emperor's intention to build an army loyal to the truth of the empire in addition to the existing army.

Unlike the old armies, they do not rely on kinship to maintain loyalty, but use imperial truth to ensure unity and arm their minds!

It sounds a bit like Santoku's Wehrmacht and Partisan Guard. When the Wehrmacht conspires for one reason or another, it goes to the Partisan Guard to work.

After all, the Emperor did not have much hope for the Primarch Legion, and believed that the mutiny was inevitable. The difference was in the insurance...

　Anyway, there will be a faction of the state religion in the future, and it should not be against the sky to set up a predecessor organization now...
