Stars for the good Warhammer

Chapter 10 Thirteenth Regiment
  In the starport where sirens echoed, as eight heavy transport aircraft landed on the busy flight deck, hundreds of guards armed with sophisticated laser rifles and wearing heavy bulletproof breastplates filed out of the hatch. In just a few seconds, The assembly was completed within minutes.

Soon, Otto, who had short black hair and a red slanted cape on the right shoulder of a dark aristocratic dress, was escorted by several carapace soldiers and walked slowly down the deck. On his chest was a badge representing his family's honor. Hanging on his waist is an ancient and valuable power sword.

Accompanied by his adjutant Laya and the manager Kalman, Otto walked towards the star port director who looked nervous.

"Sir, according to your order, the target is docked at port A7. The sailors stationed at the star port have surrounded them. What is the next order?"

Looking at the young supervisor in front of him, Otto did not rush to respond. He just signaled to lead him to the target location. While heading towards the port, the other party was still reporting news about the Cadian transport ship.

"According to the information read by the servitor responsible for ship docking, the target's registered ship name is the Bed of the Dead, and it is an imperial civilian commercial transport ship built in the Cadian sector."

The resting place of the dead?
  In other words, can it also be called [Coffin Board Number]?
  This name is really auspicious.
  At this moment, Raya, who had been following him all the way, suddenly asked in surprise.

"Civilian-grade ship? How is this possible?"

Raya looked very confused, because normally the civilian ships of the empire were not capable of subspace navigation, but now the opponent had inexplicably crossed several star fields and appeared in an unknown place like Haiwen. A remote place to shit.

In this regard, the star port director who was walking in the front gave this answer.

"We asked the captain of the Sleeping Dead, and the other party claimed that they were one of the ships that was urgently recruited to Cadian by the Imperial Navy to assist in the evacuation. In order to avoid a sudden subspace storm, they were forced to cross the galaxy. The unstable subspace turbulence at the edge finally reached the local area."

Hearing this, Otto was also stunned for a moment, because this is like someone paddling a broken door across the Pacific Ocean, and successfully surviving a Category 16 storm. I have to say that it is too unbelievable. Some.

At this moment, the butler Kalman, who had always remained silent, finally couldn't bear it anymore. He quickly took a few steps forward and expressed his opinions impatiently.

"Lord Otto, I don't think we should let those strange guys in. Keeping them would be a huge risk. I think we should get rid of them and report this matter to the Inquisition and let the Inquisitor to decide the fate of these people.”

To be honest, this proposal is not unreasonable, and can even be said to be one of the wisest choices in the current situation. After all, no one knows what impact the ship of unknown origin will have.

But considering the desperate situation that Haven was about to face, Otto finally made up his mind. He would use all available power to make a bold gamble. Perhaps only in this way, Haven would have a chance to survive the upcoming eternal night. survived.

"you're right."

Hearing Otto confirm his idea, Kalman was visibly relieved at first.

However, the other party's next words made the old butler realize that he was obviously too happy.

"But I have my own judgment on how to decide."

Not long after, when a group of people arrived at the port command platform, the manager responsible for managing the A7 interface was arguing fiercely with a voice in the platform's communication array, without noticing that someone was approaching behind them.

It wasn't until a moment later that Otto, who had walked a certain distance, heard clearly the angry roar coming from the communicator.

"They will die! Do you know what you are doing!"

Obviously, this voice was made by a member of the Sea of ​​the Dead. The other person sounded very anxious, but the port administrator just repeated the order to wait where he was without emotion over and over again. Like a servitor that can only repeat reading.

After an unknown amount of time, the voice on the channel gradually changed from the initial impatience to a helpless pleading voice.

"Please, please, just give us some basic hemostatic drugs."

Hearing this, Otto, who was standing behind the administrator, finally made a move. Just before the other person was about to speak again, he reached out and took away the communication device that was left on the console.

Seeing this, the port administrator turned his head in surprise, but when he saw clearly who was behind him, the expression on his face was as if he had seen a ghost.

"I can provide you with the medical supplies and rescue personnel you need, but all members in the Bed of the Dead must temporarily surrender all weapons and equipment. In addition, everyone who can still move needs to get off the ship for inspection."

Otto, who took over the communication device, put forward his conditions concisely and quickly without any nonsense. In today's chaotic situation, there is always nothing wrong with being careful. "I promise in the name of the Holy Emperor and the Cyrus family that as long as you do what I say, I will ensure the safety of each of you."

After a few seconds of brief silence, the man's numb voice came out again from the other end of the communicator.

"We accept your terms."

  After a period of preparation, as the hatch at the rear of the Bed of the Dead opened, the soldiers wearing Cadian standard bulletproof armor and holding Cartel-type laser guns came under the eyes of a man who had lost his right eye and left arm. The leader cautiously walked out of the cabin.

Although he was seriously injured, the man's eyes were not less sharp at all, like a lion. Just standing there made some star port guards shudder, from the laser pistol he was holding in his hand. Look, there is a high probability that he is an army officer.

Not long after, the man turned his attention to the command platform upstairs, and looked at each other with Otto, who was standing in the bulletproof observation window. Although his expression seemed a little reluctant, after hesitating for a moment, he finally agreed in front of In front of the other party, he dropped the gun in his hand without saying a word.

Led by the man, more and more soldiers began to come out of the cabin. However, what surprised Otto was that the so-called Thirteenth Cadian Assault Regiment seemed to have a smaller composition than him. It's even more confusing than I imagined.

As an elite armed force in the mortal army, he originally thought that there should be many experienced veterans among them. However, at this moment, what appeared in front of him was a large number of childish faces, especially the weapons and equipment on the generals. After removal.

Without the shield of the helmet, Otto was even more convinced that the average age of this team may not exceed 20 years old. At the end of the team, Otto even unexpectedly discovered a small number of well-equipped Kashezin veterans. , it seems that the so-called th Commando Regiment is most likely improvised from the troops that were disrupted on the battlefield.

To be honest, this situation made Otto feel a little disappointed. He originally thought that what appeared in front of him would be a well-equipped and well-organized legion. Although it was not as good as the superhuman Astartes, at least the soldiers were He is a Rambo-level macho man.

But right now, the men and women who took off their gear and started lining up in the airport looked a little too ordinary. They looked like young customers in a cafe who were worrying about work, or like strangers they might meet on the street at any time. .

It’s hard to imagine how such a group of ordinary people could fight against those chaotic non-artificial objects.
  In the end, after careful counting by the starport guards, the detailed information about the Cadian 13th Assault Regiment was quickly completed and presented to Otto by a Thinker Servant.

Excluding the original sailors of the Bedroom of the Dead, its three-story duplex cargo warehouse carried a total of about 4000 Cadian soldiers, including more than 1100 seriously injured and 700 dead, which is enough to show that That battle was brutal.

After a comprehensive search of the ship by the starport soldiers, what was surprising was that, in addition to the soldiers of the Thirteenth Cadian Regiment, there was actually a batch of brand-new military supplies in the nuclear cargo hold of the Bed of the Dead.

Nearly 3000 laser rifles of various types, 17 plasma, heavy explosive bombs and other fixed weapons, plus a thousand sets of well-made bulletproof armor, were originally supplementary materials issued by the Ministry of Military Affairs to support other war zones.

But now in this chaotic situation, it is obviously not easy to send them back.

In this case, Otto can only reluctantly accept it on behalf of the friendly forces. Anyway, the ultimate goal is to fight for the empire, and he believes that those people will understand him.

As for the sleeping place of the dead?

Come on anyway
  At this moment, Adjutant Raya walked in quickly from the door.

"Sir Otto, the leader of the Thirteenth Assault Regiment is outside the door. He hopes to meet you. Would you like to let him in now?"

Hearing this, Otto waved his hands thoughtfully.

"No, let him wait first."

In order to make these outstanding soldiers a sharp sword in his hands, he realized that he had to have a suitable candidate to cooperate with him.

As the words fell, Otto first turned his attention to Raya, staring at her big, harmless eyes, thinking for a moment alone, and then returned his gaze to the butler Kalman, and finally made up his mind. determination.

"Mr. Kalman, I have a mission here that is perfect for you."

"Please remember to do what I say next."
