Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 252 The Emperor Joins the War
……

"Lion. Finish the war here first, and then go face the powerful enemies that your First Legion should face, and then exterminate and eliminate them."

"And your other brothers and I... the war with the Orks here is only the beginning of a terrible war, and the opponents here are not the strongest among the Orks we will face, so I will only help you when you need it."

On the command deck of the Vision, the Emperor sat on the golden throne, looking down at the Primarchs gathered below.

All the Primarchs who could be summoned by the Emperor and were able to arrive in time were present. Those who were not present were simply unable to get away.

But the navy on the command deck and the confidants brought by the Primarch still felt their blood boiling.

So many Primarchs and the Emperor himself came to face a powerful enemy together.

Then several legions of Space Marines will follow the footsteps of the Primarch and the Emperor, head to the planet where the damn aliens are located, and wage a war of thorough extermination against the aliens... What a grand event this will be.

Angron stood among his fellow Primarchs, conversing with Corax.

Corax and Angron had not seen each other for a while since the last battle in Kiavar, and the two spoke in the lowest of voices.

Catch up on the past and talk about what each of you has encountered during this period.

And one more thing.

About the legion commander who was exiled by Corax and those warriors who came from the slave-owning tribes of the Terran Dry Land.

“They do very well in my regiment.”

"That's fine. Let them fight the most difficult siege. That's how Horus used them before anyway."

"I thought they were good at assassination..."

"No, what they are good at is forming square formations and attacking fortresses head-on. This is what I discovered after returning to the legion. They did not inherit my characteristics and style at all."

"..."

As Corax described the differences between his own fighting style and that of the XIX Legion, Angron turned to look at the command deck where the men brought by the Primarchs were gathered.

Beside Qin Xia, the former Shadow Lord of the 19th Legion who was exiled by Corax stood in silence.

Angron had brought him here on purpose.

Qin Xia ignored the former Shadow Lord beside him, but talked to the confidants brought by Horus.

The person the Primarch of the 16th Legion, the Luna Wolves, trusted most was not Abaddon, but a warrior named Cyjanus.

Qin Xia still remembered what kind of personality Sejanus had - not as irritable as Abaddon, nor as cold and cruel as another famous warrior in the legion named Sedire. He was a perfect officer, perfect in every aspect.

At the same time, he is also very handsome.

In a legion like the Moon Wolves, where almost all soldiers are bald, Sejanus's appearance is extremely out of place visually.

Qin Xia sometimes felt that Sejanus was a member of the Emperor's Children Legion, because perfection and handsomeness were the pursuit of the Emperor's Children Legion and the characteristics of some of their people.

"The think tank of the 12th Legion is the most special one I have ever seen."

"Just like the strict military discipline of your 12th Legion, self-discipline and tenacity, the think tank of the 12th Legion has not done anything out of line."

"..."

Qin Xia couldn't find anything wrong with Sejanus's way of speaking.

There was nothing special about what they talked about, but Qin Xia just felt familiar with it.

But Qin Xia's attention was not entirely focused on listening to Sejanus's conversation. He was also paying attention to the conversation between Angron and Corax.

The two Primarchs spoke of their other brothers.

"After you left, the Emperor came to Kiyaval. He allowed me to completely control the galaxy where Kiyaval is located and not allow any other forces to interfere."

"Then we talked about a lot, including the future of the human race, the responsibilities of us Primarchs, and other brothers."

"One of our brothers can no longer meet us. He died in the Second Randan War."

Angron was surprised to hear what Corax said.

"The second Primarch. Sanguinius said he was a loyal and strong man, but because of that, he was too persistent. He ultimately died because of his persistence."

"He would have been the commander of us Primarchs."

"..."

What Corax said was not quite the same as what Qin Xia remembered.

Corax spoke to the Emperor about the two Lost Primarchs, the Second and Eleventh.

The Emperor then stated that the two Primarchs had vanished.

So after Corax's return, the Second and Eleventh Primarchs should have disappeared.

Now Corax says that only the second Primarch was sacrificed.

Qin Xia thought about it and felt that the Emperor might modify past words and memories, erasing the past and future of a removed Primarch... The eleventh Primarch is still there for the time being.

“I thought we were all immortal,” Angron said.

"No, we will die." Corax shook his head. "We are just a little stronger than mortals. I think any warship that opens fire on us will be able to blow us to pieces. You said that your adoptive father wanted to crush Perturabo to death... I think if the God-Titan really kicks him, it's hard to say whether Perturabo can survive."

Hearing this, Perturabo turned and said, "So you will stand still and let the Titans trample you and the battleships bomb you. You are such fools, like a target four or five meters high... The only difference between you and the target used for shooting practice is that you are made of flesh."

“You have a point.” Angron nodded, then pointed to his side. “So if you’re so eager to join our conversation, why don’t you stand beside us and find a topic to talk about?”

"..."

The Emperor gave instructions to Lion, the Lord of the First Legion, and only after he finished giving instructions did he look at the others.

The Primarchs then focused their attention.

"We must eliminate the powerful enemies in this galaxy as quickly as possible."

The Emperor stood up from his throne, walked to the towering porthole of the Dream, and looked out at the planet outside that had been bombed by Perturabo before.

"All of you and your fighters will join me in executing the decapitation tactics."

"Once we have destroyed the collective consciousness on that planet, the fleet will immediately conduct concentrated fire to ensure that not even a fragment of the planet remains."

The primarchs all nodded silently after hearing this.

Qin Xia and the people brought by the Primarchs also heard the Emperor's tactics.

The Emperor's tactics can be summed up as having no tactics. Everyone rushes down together, kills the incarnation of the devil who can resist orbital bombardment, and then blows the planet to pieces.

But this is precisely because the Emperor possesses overwhelming power and the enemy is not yet strong enough to require him to carefully plan tactics.

So many Primarchs were summoned by the Emperor, not all for the purpose of fighting.

Angron could sense the Emperor's intention, which was that he wanted to use this war to get the Primarchs used to fighting together.

The Primarchs were the absolute leaders of each legion, and they were not submissive to each other, so the Emperor wanted them to adapt to wars where they would obey orders and fight side by side.

As for the reason why the Emperor thought so... Angron also sensed it.

That is, the Emperor wanted to withdraw from the Great Crusade, hand over the command of the war to a qualified person, and then let this person lead the Primarchs to continue to complete the Great Crusade.

After the war here is over, most of these Primarchs will immediately follow the First Legion to fight the next war.

"Any questions?" the Emperor asked the Primarchs present.

The Primarchs were all silent.

"Let us fight," said the Emperor.

The confidants brought by the Primarch all conveyed the Emperor's orders to their respective legions, and then left the Dream and returned to their legions. Qin Xia did the same.

But when he was about to leave, the emperor looked at Qin Xia and said, "You stay."

……

After twelve solar hours.

The Emperor stood at the porthole for twelve full solar hours.

The Primarchs stood solemnly behind the Emperor, awaiting the moment when they and the Emperor would need to go to the planet to join the battle.

Qin Xia stood behind the Primarchs. He discovered that the Emperor was not standing there stupidly, but was using his psychic power to break through the psychic barrier of the transcendent being called the Avatar of Go Mao in order to observe the situation on the planet.

It's like connecting a network cable to your LAN.

Qin Xia could also follow the network line pulled by the Emperor to observe various places on the planet without having to assist Avida, who had the ability of prophecy, to observe the planet in circles.

Before twelve solar hours, all legions were in action.

The Emperor conveys his orders directly to the commanders of each legion, so that all legions can be deployed as quickly as possible and fight in an orderly manner.

Then the Sisters of Silence troops were deployed.

The Sisters of Silence do not act directly with the Space Marines, but are stationed near certain locations conveyed by the Emperor, and the men of the Fourth Legion are transferred there to specifically protect the Sisters of Silence.

Also protecting the Sisters of Silence are the Custodians.

This resulted in the Avatar being isolated on the largest land mass on the planet.

The incarnation of God controls all the greenskins on the planet and waged a massive war with humans on that landmass.

Those green-skinned war machines faced off against the nineteen Titan legions of mankind. The Space Marines performed the most common combat tasks on the battlefield like mortal infantry, and the mortal... mortal auxiliary troops were only responsible for protecting some places in this war.

Qin Xia also observed that there were some large individuals among the greenskins, similar to warlords.

They formed a team of ten people, with green light gushing from their eyes, and were protecting a facility that seemed to be used to control the entire planet, where countless greenskins were entrenched.

The facilities have been built, and the entire planet has in fact become a celestial-level war machine. As long as sufficient energy is injected, the facilities that control the planet will bring the entire planet into the subspace.

Such an important place is guarded not only by a team of warlords, but also by an invisible transcendent being - the incarnation of Mao.

"The time has come." The emperor said softly.

The sound of the sword being unsheathed was heard.

The Emperor drew out a flaming sword and held it in his hand, while on his other hand he clenched the five fingers of the golden power claw.

The Primarchs also drew their weapons.

The elite imperial guards assembled on the command deck took a step forward together.

Constantine Valdo, the commander of the Imperial Guards, stood in front of all the Imperial Guards wearing golden armor.

Qin Xia and Angron looked at each other, but did not take the spear from behind and hold it in his hand, because he felt that he could not get into close combat.

The golden light flashed and then faded.

Qin Xia, the Primarchs and the Imperial Guards found themselves at the most intense fighting spot on the surface in the blink of an eye.

In the distance is the huge facility.

Nearby...

The formation of fighter planes diving into the planet's atmosphere almost covered the entire sky.

The Titans of the nineteen Titan Legions advanced steadily in the rear, and the Space Marines followed behind the Titans, advancing under the protection of the Titans' void shields, clearing the endless "green sea" for the giant war machines.

The environment not protected by the Void Shield is harsh.

The two sides continued to bombard each other. Any behavior that deviated from the range of protective devices such as the void shield was tantamount to seeking death, and would ultimately end up being reduced to ashes by the uninterrupted and intensive firepower. This forced the armies of both sides to gather together.

Qin Xia found himself and the Primarchs at the center of the battle between the two sides, but any shells that were about to land here would pass overhead and land in the distance.

"Warlord!" Vulkan raised his hammer and pointed it forward.

The greenskins seemed to have foreseen that the Primarch would appear, and the warlords controlled by the incarnation of GoGo had already rushed to the place where the Primarch would appear.

The warlords roared and rushed forward, followed by various war machines that were not as fast as them.

The giant creature called Gorilla that Avida had seen before was also among them.

"Fight!" Ryan rushed towards the warlords first.

As the Primarch and the Warlords approached each other, the front lines of the two warring parties had already engaged.

When Qin Xia was about to pull the God Titan out of the subspace, he suddenly saw the Mad King Kong raising his right arm towards him.

The unknown weapon on the right arm flashed a dazzling light, and then a loud noise that echoed through the land plates reached Qin Xia.

Qin Xia stared at the beam of light emitted by the weapon, watching it pass over his head and finally penetrate a Titan not far away along with its void shield. The Space Marines at the Titan's feet had already run under the protection of other Titans or war machines equipped with void shields, so they were not wiped out by the rain-like attacks after the void shield disappeared.

But some slow-moving legion tanks and small Titans... were all destroyed by the greenskins' concentrated fire.

Seeing this scene, Qin Xia raised his hand that was about to release the portal and pretended to press it on the helmet, as if to confirm whether the helmet was firmly worn around his neck.

The Primarchs have fought the Warlords.

The Space Marines also closed the distance with the Greenskins hiding behind the psychic barrier behind the warlords. War machines bombarded each other and infantry charged each other. Neither side dared to leave the protection of the barrier or void shield, making this battle look like a swarm of two ancient legions.

When Godzilla raised his weapon, no longer aiming at the human Titans, but at the greenskins and humans on the ground, as well as the warring warlords and primarchs, the Emperor appeared.

Qin Xia saw the sun in the sky flash.

Then a golden figure suddenly appeared in front.

That is the Emperor.

He was not huge, and his whole body was shining with golden light that overshadowed the sunlight. He stood on the hill in front of King Kong like an ant challenging a giant elephant.

The next second, Qin Xia felt the spiritual energy in his body being extracted by the Emperor, and then the spiritual energy that had already overflowed the entire planet was also extracted and called upon by the Emperor.

A sword shining with brilliance slashed out fiercely.

The Mao King Kong was split into two and collapsed with a loud bang.

The emperor stood on a towering mountain top and raised his hand to disperse the dust that was stirred up by the falling King Kong in front of him. His words and his figure were clearly heard by everyone at the same time.

"For humanity!"

Following the Emperor, the human warriors and war machines roared and sped up.

With the battle cry of "For the Emperor!", humans were unstoppable and the greenskins could no longer stop them.

The Emperor teleported to the Primarchs' side and fought together with them against the powerful greenskin warlords in front of them.

Qin Xia watched all this.

The Primarch and the Emperor, who were extremely rare and invisible ten thousand years later, were now fighting side by side, killing the warlords or the powerful greenskins brought by the warlords in front of them like cutting melons and vegetables.

Ten thousand years later, the Titan Legion could only be seen in an apocalypse-level war. In this war, nineteen Titans were deployed, and hundreds of them roamed the battlefield.

The Space Marines who were used as special forces ten thousand years later are now as numerous as the hairs on a cow. Under the void shields, one can see crowds of Space Marines, swarming forward shoulder to shoulder. The battle flags representing each legion and company are densely arranged together, fluttering in the wind.

This is the Great Crusade of the 30th Millennium.

This is the Great Crusade that the Emperor has not yet withdrawn from.
