On this day, under a clear sky, 618 astral knights gathered in the square of the monastery fortress. Their armors were shining, their helmets neatly tucked under their arms, and they looked very solemn.
In front of each team stood their respective company commanders, the first company commander Maximilian (full strength of 110 people), the second company commander Ustad (full strength of 110 people), and the third company commander was absent for some reason (81 people)
, Fourth Company Commander Lothar (full complement of 110 people, most of whom are veterans exchanged from White Templar), Sixth Company Commander Zaraton (45 people), Tenth Company Commander Armin (73 people), and Acting Eleven
Company Commander Bahram (71 men).
As well as the chief priest Yazdan plus 3 apprentice priests, the chief pharmacist Balita Em plus 4 official pharmacists (including Valier) and 4 apprentice pharmacists, and the foundry master Rogris plus 4
Trainee technical sergeants and other regiment command levels.
In the shadows at one end of the square, there are 15 veteran soldiers led by the inconspicuous Luke.
Their eyes were focused on the podium. Accompanied by the sound of heavy footsteps, Soshyan, who was wearing original finely crafted armor and holding Fentian, stepped onto the podium step by step, with Khayon and Talos following behind him.
After standing still, Soshiyang glanced at everyone, and then said:
"Everyone, first of all, I want to apologize to everyone. I hid this matter from everyone! I did not go to Terra, nor did I go to the Phalanx! I, Captain Talos, and Director of the Think Tank Khayon, the three of us went to Ke
Moro!”
The soldiers remained motionless, but their flashing eyes betrayed the shock in their hearts.
"Yes, as everyone thinks, we are out for revenge, and at the same time to save the kidnapped Ms. Veronica! You may wonder, is it worth going to such great lengths just for a mortal? My answer is, it is worth it!
Anything that belongs to the empire, let alone a person, even a blade of grass, these aliens cannot even think of taking it away from us!"
As he spoke, Soshyan suddenly raised his hand, and everyone turned around to look. They saw hundreds of fresh heads strung up by flagpoles on the top of the monastery fortress's protective wall, arranged in a long row.
"We made the freaks of Commorragh pay in blood for their previous sneak attack! There are not only the notorious Haemonculi there, but also their so-called Cabal Archons. If they take a life from us, then
We must get it back a thousand times a hundred times!!”
Afterwards, Soshyan began to "briefly" tell everyone a series of stories about how to go to Comoros, and how he encountered the Fourteenth Army's attack on the city.
"...No matter how abominable monsters they released, no matter how the heretics tried to obstruct us, we still crushed their temples, burned their palaces, and successfully rescued Ms. Veronica."
As soon as Soshyan finished speaking, Maximilian suddenly raised his hand and shouted:
"The Chapter Master insulted the Dark Eldar, the Chapter Master is invincible!!!"
"Invincible!!!"
"Invincible!!!"
For a moment, the soldiers cheered loudly, which made Soshiyang feel a little embarrassed, so he lowered his hands.
"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment and let me introduce someone first."
Then, he turned around and nodded.
Accompanied by the sound of heels hitting the ground, Veronica, wearing a black clerical nun's ceremonial dress, with long black hair tied behind her head, a delicate face and light makeup, solemnly walked onto the stage in a human manner, before hundreds of people.
The Star Marines' gazes came to Soshyan step by step.
"Maybe you didn't know much about Veronica before. Let me tell you in detail here. She comes from a family of bachelors and is very good at Eldar language. And as the recruits can see, she is also a powerful psyker...
... A legal psyker with the rare power to heal the human body. It is the secret weapon I have always hidden. It was somehow known to the Dark Eldar, so they coveted her power and launched this raid."
After Soshyan finished speaking, Veronica turned around calmly and bent slightly towards Soshyan.
"The chapter leader risked his own safety to rescue a female prostitute like me. I am very grateful."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Soshiyang's face, and then he said seriously:
"Since you are a member of the battle group, I am obligated to be responsible for your life and safety."
Veronica smiled slightly and raised her left eyebrow mischievously, which made Soshiyang feel a little panicked, for fear that she would suddenly say something that would cause misunderstanding. Fortunately, she still knew the rules and didn't say anything extra.
, but turned around to look at the soldiers in the audience, and said softly:
"I will continue to contribute my small efforts to the battle group, and I hope everyone will take care of me in the future."
"Chapter Master."
At this time, Robin suddenly walked out of the queue and raised his right hand.
"I have something to say."
Just as Ustad was about to scold, Soshyan said:
"explain."
"Have we disappointed you?"
"of course not."
"Aren't we qualified to fight alongside you?"
"Definitely not."
"Are we so weak that we can't even kill the Eldar?"
Soshyan looked at the champion swordsman, sighed softly, and said:
"Are you complaining that I didn't take you there?"
"I just don't understand why you broke into Comoros alone like this. You are the leader of the war group, the leader of the legion, and the pillar of the undead army! If you make any mistakes, the plan to revive the legion will be in vain.
Flowing water! I dare not say how powerful I am, but no matter how bad we are, we can still block two bullets for you!"
Robin's words immediately resonated with many warriors. They nodded slightly, and even Ustad, who wanted to stop him, closed his mouth.
Soshyan, who had long expected such a reaction from the soldiers, did not rebuke Robin, but responded calmly:
"Yes, it is very dangerous to go to Comorragh, not only because of the unpredictability of the webway, but also because Comorragh itself is the base camp of the Dark Eldar. Because of this, I guess I decided to use the minimum number of people to carry out the operation, because I know very well,
Even if we gather the strength of the entire battle group, even if we enlist the allies of the Alliance of Tribulation, we will never be able to invade Comoros... This is the fact, everyone is not bad, you are all good warriors, but our strength is still too much.
Small, once we dive headlong into the webway, the result is likely to be a loss of troops and return without success, or even the whole army is annihilated! I am by no means an alarmist. Everything I saw after entering Comoros also confirmed my guess. Darkness
Although the Spirit Race is despicable, their strength cannot be underestimated!"
With that said, Soshyan turned around and took a piece of armor fragment from Kayan's hand.
After scrubbing, the armor fragments turned green, with a vague fire dragon mark on them.
Soshiyang held up the fragment in his hand and said seriously to everyone:
"A long time ago, Salamanders also led an army to attack Comoros. They did achieve their goal, but they also paid a lot for it... Until now, the remains of many Salamander warriors still remain in that fallen city.
, every one of you, whether you are of the blood of the Undead Army or not, is my cherished brother. I don’t want you to die in vain in that place where even the star torch cannot shine! Being with those bastards!”
After that, he threw the fragment towards Robin.
"Although death is the destination for all of us, at least death should be more valuable. That's why I chose to hide the traces and only three people went into action, because only by using the sneak method can we have the greatest certainty and use the smallest possible means.
Complete this action at a reasonable cost and minimize possible losses."
Looking at the pieces of armor thrown at his feet, Robin was silent. After a while, he held a sword in one hand and knelt down on one knee.
"Chapter Commander, I am willing to accept punishment for my rude remarks."
"Let your company commander make arrangements."
Robin said nothing, stood up, and returned to the queue.
After that, Soshyan glanced at everyone again, with a warm smile on his face.
"To tell you the truth, seeing that everyone is well during this period makes me happier than how many enemies I have killed."
"Chapter Commander, despite this, I still have something to say."
Fourth company commander Lothar suddenly spoke. As one of the oldest warriors in the current battle group, he met Soshiyang's eyes and said in a deep voice:
"I hope that next time something like this happens again, you can at least tell us, otherwise we will be really worried about you."
Soshyan nodded.
"Just this once, never happen again."
After saying everything that needed to be said, Soshyan announced the disbandment, because there were still many things waiting for him to deal with - Ustad was still inexperienced, and many chapter affairs were left unfinished, including galaxy development, immigration and
Ulan Huda offers a range of equipment distribution services.
So now Soshyan has to clean up the mess left behind after he left.
