Conjurer?I, the Warhammer Psyker

Chapter 268 The Burning Galaxy (Part )

The deafening sound of artillery outside has never stopped, and the bloody and cruel fighting and massacre on the Isstvan V Siste Plateau is going on.

Hundreds of Space Marines died every minute and every second. It was no exaggeration to say that the rivers of blood flowed like a millstone of flesh and blood.

A hidden bunker far away from the battlefield was a former military base of the Istvan V rebels, and is now used as a combat headquarters by Horus and a group of rebels.

Basically the liaison members of each legion are here, distributing the commander's orders to the various front lines fighting the Loyalists.

In a rather simple room, there was a tall, bald man who looked particularly fierce, with his hands on the table, but his expression looked extremely sad.

Horus is difficult.

He has not taken down those loyalists for so long, and he is really inseparable from his good teammates.

Isayama Nomei also admires the Primarchs of Horus who betrayed him.

My mother, who is a true believer in the four characters "cow, ghost and snake god", is basically unreliable.

Horus basically can only rely on the [Death Guard] Primarch Mortarion, and the [Iron Warrior] Primarch Perturabo can rely on, they are the taller among the dwarfs.

The others are all mentally ill, eccentric, autistic, schizophrenic, etc.

In front of Horus, there was a large sand table with a lot of scattered chess pieces placed on it. The map showed the positions of the loyalists and rebels.

Horus rubbed his brow tiredly. As a war commander, he has not had a frontline battle like this for a long time.

One [Midnight Lord] is missing, and there are many fewer people who can really do practical things. The loyalists are still stubbornly resisting.

The veteran members who belong to Horus and their respective legions are too cunning, because basically they all know the methods of their commanders, and they all know how to use them.

The bunkers lurking in those former rebels are hiding everywhere, and even if they are bombarded by railguns, they can provide good defense in the fortresses built in advance by the original rebels on Istvan V.

Most battlefields are melee battles, and the lack of distinction between the enemy and ourselves also has a great impact on railgun bombing.

Horus thought this. Suddenly, his whole bunker seemed to have been hit by something heavy, and countless fine sand fell down, making his face covered in ashes.

"Loyalist counterattack?"

This place is far away from the battlefield. How could it be that the whole house is constantly shaking as if it has been hit by a nuclear attack.

But the next second Horus overturned this issue, and the loyalists were basically at a disadvantage. There was no way that what they thought would become a reality.

So what exactly happened? "

Horus's mood became even less beautiful after being treated like this.

"Report! Sir."

Soon there was a knock in the sealed room. It was a Space Marine from the [Sons of Horus] Legion. When he learned about the situation in the outside world, he immediately informed the rebel commander of what was happening in the outside world.

"It's the wreckage of a destroyed [Alpha] Legion Avenger-class battleship, which fell in a canyon not far away."

"Isn't the battle in the universe over?"

Horus frowned slightly when he heard this. The battleships of [Salamander], [Steel Hand], and [Raven Guard] had all been destroyed by them in space.

How could it be possible that the [Alpha] Legion's battleship was destroyed.

The Space Marine of [Sons of Horus] swallowed a mouthful of saliva before continuing to answer.

"It's the Blood Angels, Night Angels, and Ultramarines' legion battleships that suddenly appeared in the Istvan galaxy and are exchanging fire with us!"

When the space warrior learned the news, he couldn't believe the information he received, but the highest-level secret communications marked in red were classified as the highest-level secrets, and he was not allowed to disbelieve this fact.

Those dogs really didn't know where they came from, they just descended on this area and started biting people like crazy dogs.

what?

Horus looked at the [Son of Horus] who had sent the information and information with ferocious eyes.

But the space warrior looked directly into his father's eyes and said it again.

"The support of the Loyalists is coming. The fleets of the Ultramarines, Night Angels and Blood Angels have all arrived in the East System and are engaging in firefights with us."

"I see."

After receiving the information, Horus glanced at it quickly. He acted very calmly and did not show any excessive reaction. He just waved his hand to let him out.

After this [Son of Horus] went out, he was quite impressed with Horus' performance.

"As expected of Lord Horus, he didn't waver even after knowing that the rebels were coming to support us."

But after he was gone.

Horus, who was alone in the room, took a deep breath and looked at the sentence on the intelligence, "The enemy's firepower is fierce, requesting support." He felt extremely dazzling.

Horus didn't take a breath and destroyed the huge sand table for deduction in front of him with one punch.

"waste."

His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he was about to choose someone to devour.

"It's all trash!"

In other words, as the commander-in-chief, Horus had a strong mental will and a strong psychological endurance. If it were any other general, he would have been so angry that he would have vomited blood a long time ago.

To describe Horus’s mood, that’s

All previous efforts were wasted!

Who knows how much effort Horus put into sending the [Blood Angels] and [Night Angels] to the border far away from the center of the empire.

He even asked the Four Gods to impose a subspace blockade on the area, just to prevent them from disturbing his good deeds.

It can be said that all the agencies have been exhausted!

But what happened in it actually caused all three legions to arrive in the Istvan V system.

This situation is equivalent to placing several enemies that Horus least wants to face in front of him at once and forcing him to face them.

It is the most difficult enemy on the entire front!

"Sanguinius! Llane El'Jonson!"

They're all united together

Those are not just two names, they are former war commander candidates.

Horus' most powerful rival.

Horus suddenly felt his head buzzing and his vision went dark.

This was because he even actively ignored Robert Guilliman. Grandpa Lan, who had been targeted by Lorgar, was not a threat at all.

The sudden entry of the [Blood Angels] and [Night Angels] into the battle will definitely cause the battle front in space to collapse.

Jonson's [Dark Angels]'s combat power surpasses eighteen legions, with countless Dark Age artifacts, relic ships, and more than 20 interstellar warriors.

In addition to Sanguinius's ability to scare even "Warmaster" Horus, the Space Marines of the [Holy Blood Angels] have hundreds of thousands of troops.

To tell a joke, after the explosion of the Word Bearers, the total number of Space Marines in the Battle of Calth against Robert Guilliman did not exceed 50,000.

Compared with the crooked melons and jujubes on Horus's side, Sanguinius and "Lion King" Llane El'Jonson are more like regular Imperial troops.

The warships on Horus's side were not mentally prepared or arranged to deal with the most powerful imperial main fleet.

"damn it."

Horus covered his mouth, and when he moved his hand away, a shocking red color appeared on his palm.

He was so angry that he vomited blood. The situation was out of control and completely out of Horus' control. How could he not be so angry that he vomited blood?

You must know that this is only the early stage of the rebellion and Horus has not yet achieved any outstanding results! A beautiful victory is urgently needed to establish the success of the rebellion.

"My plan is obviously foolproof. Where is the loophole?" Horus's plan is indeed powerful, but in front of Isayama Kenmei, who knows the future, all his plans have nowhere to hide.

"And what the hell is Curze doing?"

Horus knew about the failure of [The Word Bearers], otherwise he would not have sent Konrad Curze, the Primarch of the Night Lords, to support him, just hoping that he could be a troublemaker there to ensure loyalty. There was absolutely no way Pi would find a way back to Terra.

But why didn't Curze send any news to him?

Instead, Curze actually let these three dogs appear in front of Horus.

Lorgar and Angron both lost contact with Horus.

"Trash, all rubbish!"

As Horus spoke, he felt something sweet in his throat again. He groaned, covered his chest and took a few steps back uncontrollably.

And Isayama Nomei was taking his gadget to the planet Istvan 5 when he suddenly received a text message from the system.

[Because you severely defeated Horus Luperkar, an important plot character in the current world timeline, the reward has been greatly increased, and you will receive five consecutive draws worth 3000 merit rewards. 】

Isayama Nomei directly hit one

"?"

Although Horus was extremely angry, as a qualified commander, he knew that now was not the time to shirk responsibility. Rearranging the battle situation was the most important thing to do at the moment.

Horus pressed his communicator to all but the Iron Hands under his command. Except for the Emperor's Son Fulgrim, who was at war, all other Primarchs contacted him for a meeting.

"I was too soft-hearted."

A fierce light flashed in Horus's eyes. The addition of Sanguinius and Jonson's legions would be quite detrimental to the upcoming battle.

Therefore, he will kill the remaining three loyalist legions immediately.

At first, they were just concerned about the possibility of accidentally injuring their own people in the legions' melee. After all, Horus also had to take into account the feelings of the brothers who rebelled with him.

Therefore, some weapons of mass destruction have not been used, but now it seems that they have to be used.

There are also some backup plans for conquering the Empire of Terra, which I am afraid I have to come up with earlier.

After all, the three extra legions are the main force of the empire. Not only are there hundreds of thousands more people, but also hundreds of thousands of extra pigs will take a long time to kill.

One can imagine. How big of an impact will it have on the entire battle?

Some "weeds" with vacillating attitudes will be ready to make a move, so in this case Horus must not show any cowardly attitude.

Otherwise, once this situation occurs, the hearts of the entire legion will be dispersed.

Horus prepares to compress the battlefield

Only by wiping out all the beleaguered loyalists on the battlefield will we be able to free up our hands to wipe out all the three newly joined legions (?)

Although regarding this point, he himself, who carries the name of Warmaster, does not have the slightest confidence.

But Horus had to do this, otherwise he would really become a joke.

Let alone ignite the entire galaxy, even if it ignites the entire planet of Istvan 5, it cannot be done.

The Horus rebels on Tephan 5 will be completely held back by these loyalists. Without support, they will be left alone and helpless, just like an isolated island that can only wait to die quietly.

Horus really wanted to know who brought those bastards, the Blood Angels and the Night Angels, onto the battlefield.

But I have to say that compared to the [Dark Angels], most of the betrayed legions look like a miscellaneous army.

After being caught off guard at first, he immediately reacted and began to organize a counterattack.

But that only allows them to die more clearly.

As mentioned before, most of the [Ultramarines] Macragge's Glory was blown up by [Midnight Lord] Konrad Curze, so it is basically impossible to repair the battleship under that situation. .

But the specially modified warships of the [Night Angel] and [Blood Angel] flagships are not much weaker than the [Macragge's Glory]?

Especially the terrifying firepower of the huge stone fortress of [Dark Angel], which may be even more powerful than the Macragge's Glory in its heyday!

The terrifying void cannon can easily penetrate the void shields of large battleships, making those thick void shields useless. They can't withstand it at all and are directly penetrated in a few seconds.

That firepower is really too strong.

The rebel warships locked by the Stone Fortress are basically in danger, and no one can guarantee their absolute safety.

For example, a [Death Guard] battleship just glanced at the Stone Fortress, and was immediately smashed into pieces by violent firepower.

In the end, the captain of a certain company of the [Death Guard] directly inside struggled painfully and his men were all painfully reduced to ashes in the explosion.

In addition, the commanders of the battleships of [Night Angel] were as cold as machines, meticulously executing the tasks they assigned to the original body, killing all the enemies in front of them without mercy.

The efficiency is quite high.

Just like Isayama Nomei, who controlled the [Macragge's Glory] and dealt a devastating blow to the [Word Bearers], he did not regard the rebels as human beings at all.

The rebels were miserable. Even though they were evenly matched in numbers, there was still a gap in firepower.

Moreover, they were the one who was caught off guard. Even if they reacted and counterattacked in time, they would lose the opportunity.

Most of the warships had some injuries and considerable ammunition loss in the previous exchanges with the loyalist warships. It was a wheel battle, so they were already at a disadvantage in the battle with the loyalist fleets.

Every few minutes, a rebel warship was forced to turn into a bright flash of light and disappear into the endless galaxy.

Due to the lack of a large number of battleships, many positions for firepower points in the entire galaxy were suddenly vacant.

Plan 2 will also be launched soon.

That is to use these battleships in the void as assistance, and then behead the rebels on Istvan 5.

Therefore, there were a lot of gorgeous scenes similar to meteors streaking across the sky on the planet Istvan 5.

But those were caused by the friction between the super-large landing cabins belonging to the three giants of the empire and the atmosphere.

Quite a few Night Angels, Blood Angels, and Ultramarines all arrived on the surface of Istvan V's planet, along with a large number of Titan legions.

The [Raven Guard], which was being besieged by several rebel Space Marines, was struggling in the trenches. Suddenly, the enemy's fiercely tilted firepower was reduced to ashes in a burst of flash.

They, the loyalists, only heard the enemy's wails disappear together with the sounds of armor and flesh being torn apart.

There was a deathly silence outside the trench, except for the creepy and weird sound of chewing.

A [Raven Guard] boldly came forward. In the trenches, I saw the Space Marines of the [Iron Warriors] Legion with only half their heads left, their eyes wide open as if they were not dead.

"Don't worry, this area has been cleared by us."

A Space Marine of the Blood Angels used a kind voice as much as possible to express his kindness to these loyal warriors.

But it would be better if he could ignore his companions who were feasting on the freshly baked corpse next to him.

"If you need any help, you can tell us."

"Captain, I got their information."

The [Holy Blood Angel] who was eating reported to his companions.

[Blood Angel] can bite and devour the enemy's corpse and obtain the memory on the corpse, so sometimes it is not a problem to open meat occasionally.
