Macragge, the first star of the Ultramar sector in the Empire's extreme star domain, was once the capital of the 500 worlds of the Empire's Ultramar.
During the Great Crusade, this was the place where the Primarch Robert Guilliman grew up, and it was also the place where soldiers of the Thirteenth Ultramarines Legion were later recruited. It was here that countless descendants and brothers of Macragge became Ultramarines.
One, following their leader and primarch, on the journey of the Great Crusade.
Many of them never returned to this homeland in their entire lives, spilling their blood and lives on distant alien planets and dying for humanity and the Emperor's Great Crusade.
Because it has the support of the entire 500 worlds in the Ultramar sector, and Robert Guilliman himself is exceptionally good at management and handling political issues, the Thirteenth Legion was exceptionally strong in the era of the Great Crusade.
At the end of the Great Crusade, the Ultramarines Legion had as many as 250,000 Space Marines, the largest of the eighteen Space Marine Legions.
Because of this, after the end of the Great Rebellion, the Ultramarines also provided a large amount of gene seeds and space warriors to help several other legions rebuild, and became the parent legion of many sub-legions in the subsequent second army establishment.
To this day, although the Ultramarines chapter only maintains the size of a thousand-man chapter according to the Codex Astartes written by Robert Guilliman himself at the time, the Ultramarines sub-chapter has already spread across the galaxy.
There are even rumors claiming that among the Space Marine group, which the Empire itself does not know exactly how many chapters there are, more than one-third of the chapter's gene seeds come from the Ultramarines.
This also made it possible that when each chapter received the assembly order from the Blood Angels, the number of Space Marines gathered on Macragge far exceeded most people's imagination.
Among them, there are even battle groups that have traveled thousands of miles and crossed the entire empire. Some of these groups are not even known by the think tank director of the Ultramarines Chapter, but they are undoubtedly sub-groups of the Ultramarines.
Most of these battle groups that came from afar experienced many difficulties and obstacles, and many battle groups even suffered serious losses, and some even fell into the star sea, but they still gathered on this home planet of the Ultramarines without hesitation.
The gathering of so many Chapters and Space Marines undoubtedly had a huge impact on Macragge.
"Those damaged battle groups must replenish and repair them as soon as possible to restore their combat effectiveness as soon as possible. In terms of equipment, contact the Mechanicus and let the Forge World of Ultramar fully cooperate. As for personnel, for battle groups with relatively large personnel losses,
The regiment allowed them to recruit and replenish troops in the Ultramar sector
." Inside the planet's Ultramarines chapter fortress, chapter leader Marius Calgar is arranging work: "In addition, regarding the rumors about the resurrection of the original body, let all chapters remain calm, and the priests should comfort the brothers.
Emotions, don’t let this become a breaking point for Chaos to exploit.”
A mortal official of Macragge took note of Chapter Master Calgar's words, and seeing that the Chapter Master had no more instructions, he left his office.
Standing in front of the office window, looking at the peaceful Macragge outside the window, as well as the star-like warships in the planet's orbit, Calgar was not happy about the large gathering of troops. On the contrary, he was very worried.
The pressure on various logistics supplies caused by the gathering of a large number of Space Marines is easy to say. Macragge is still the first star of the Ultramar sector, although most of the five hundred worlds that the Ultramarines Chapter once had.
They have been enfeoffed, and they only hold a limited number of worlds in their hands, but the Ultramar warriors in the entire Ultramar sector are still able to talk, and it is not a big problem to provide these groups with supplies and personnel.
The key is to gather so many battle groups!
So far, Calgar has seen at least fifty battle group numbers!
Although most of these battle groups are not full of members, and not all of them have come to Macragge, even so, Macragge now has at least more than 20,000 Space Marines gathered!
Although they come from dozens of different battle groups, have their own commands and styles, and are not affiliated with each other. They have nothing in common except that they are all sub-groups of the Ultramarines, but even so, this is an interstellar group of more than 20,000 people.
warrior!
The last time the Empire assembled such a large force was in Cadia to resist Abaddon's twelfth dark invasion!
If only I had so many troops when the Tyranids invaded Macragge last time, the first company wouldn't have been killed in the final battle!
Thinking of the veterans of the 1st Company who all died in the last war against the Tyranid invasion, Calgar was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
They were the most elite veterans of the Ultramarines and one of the most valuable assets of the Chapter, but they fell to those hateful alien minions.
Every time he thought about this, Calga missed the brothers who died in the battle particularly, and he remembered each of their names.
But now, he can't spend his energy on remembering his past comrades. There are still many things waiting for him to deal with.
As the highest power controller of Macragge, Calgar is not like other chapter leaders who can pull the entire chapter across the star sea to come to Macragge just because they heard a piece of news.
He had to think about what it meant and what it was all about.
Is there really a miracle happening, or is this just a conspiracy of chaos, or is it something else.
He must think clearly about the causes and consequences of all this and be prepared to deal with it.
The empire was already in troubled times. In the thousand years from M40 to M41, various disasters occurred frequently. It was as if all kinds of disasters that could shake the foundation of the empire's rule broke out at this time, giving the entire empire a sense of urgency.
A precarious feeling.
At this time, rumors of gathering to the home star suddenly spread among all space warriors, causing the empire's total of more than three million space warriors to gather towards the former home star of the Legion, waiting for the so-called Primarch who might return.
, undoubtedly making the situation in the empire become more and more treacherous.
You must know that these are three million space warriors! Even without the assistance of power armor, he is a superman who can lift up to three tons with one arm and more than five tons with both arms!
A fully equipped Space Marine can easily slaughter hundreds of Astra Militarum soldiers in a few breaths. A standard Space Marine squad can even suppress the battlefield of a planet. Tens of thousands of Space Marines gathered together, that is enough to shake the enemy.
The huge power that the empire rules in a certain sector!
