Warhammer: Angron Training Manual

Chapter 469 Son of Angron

……

The Vanguard fleet sails the Webway.

Inside the command deck of the Resolute Resolve, six Primarchs stood around the holographic image in different postures.

The star map of the Ullanor Empire was presented to the Primarchs.

"This is Horus' strategy."

Perturabo raised his hand and pointed at the star map.

"He deployed the legions that were not good at attacking to advance on all fronts of the Ullanor Empire, while he led several legions that were good at attacking to attack the core world of the Ullanor Empire."

"When attacking, Horus will arrange the attacking legions to take turns to participate in the battle. One legion will be responsible for a period of battle, and when the time is up, it will immediately withdraw from the battle and rest."

"It's like a round-the-clock offensive."

After saying this, the Lord of Steel looked towards Angron.

Angron remained silent, thinking that perhaps he should have used this strategy at the beginning.

But on second thought, the Battle of Krako and the annihilation of the Krako warlord had not yet happened at that time. With only six legions, it would be difficult to advance rapidly within the Ullanor Empire if the elite troops of each legion were not concentrated for unified command.

"He wants to reach the core of Ullanor as quickly as possible." Mortarion also looked at Angron. "This arrangement is indeed smart, but we can use the Webway to directly avoid the war zones along the way and reach the core of Ullanor."

The other Primarchs nodded in agreement.

"We will win the most crucial victory in this war." Mortarion leaned forward, his arms pressing on the holographic imaging device, as if preparing to hunt prey. "You will get the title of Warmaster, and we will get the glory and merit."

Angron kept his arms crossed and did not raise his head. “We are walking in the webway.”

"Then why are you so sad? I thought you didn't even care about competing for the title of Warmaster, but you were still trying to keep things under control." Mortarion frowned.

Angron shrugged. “I just don’t think it’s fair. After all, I used the Bloodaxe to gain a strategic advantage, and now I use the Webway…”

"Being able to unite other forces is an ability in itself."

Command deck gates open.

Qin Xia said as he stepped onto the command deck.

"If we start a war with the Blood Axe Clan first, and then choose to fire at the aliens when the alien prophet finds us, then we will not be able to use the Blood Axe Clan to gain strategic advantage, and we will not have the opportunity to use the Webway."

"If this competition must be strictly fair, then the Emperor should assign you a few more Primarch brothers and legions."

After saying that, Qin Xia came to Angron's side, took a look at the star map, and roughly understood Horus's decision and progress.

This star map and strategy were sent by Horus himself.

The Vanguard Army was always communicating with the main army, and Horus was directly informed that the Vanguard Army could use the Webway.

The competition for the title of Warmaster is only part of the Ullanor War. The most important thing is to destroy the Ullanor Empire. If Angron or Horus chooses to conceal strategic information from friendly forces and refuse military cooperation in order to compete for the title of Warmaster, then one candidate will lose the qualification to become Warmaster before the competition officially begins.

"..." Angron looked at his adoptive father who walked into the command deck and was about to say something when he was suddenly interrupted by Lorgar.

"Can we reach the core world of Ullanor directly?" Luo Jia looked at Qin Xia and asked.

Qin Xia has been communicating with Uslan.

And Uslan has been checking the network route map, looking for the network path and exit that can lead directly to the core world of the Ulanno Empire.

Fortunately, the Alien Prophet gave an excellent result.

"We can directly exit the webway in the Ullanor system, and even bypass the defenses set up by the aliens in the void," Qin Xia said.

Perturabo hammered the imaging equipment excitedly.

Good things come to those who wait...but this principle does not seem to apply to competition nowadays.

"The fleet will arrive at the webway exit in an hour." Qin Xia said again.

The Primarchs then issued a series of orders, asking their respective legion fleets to form battle formations and prepare to leap into the real universe.

……

One solar hour later.

In the Ullanor system, the human empire fleet sailed out from the suddenly opened webway exit.

As the capital galaxy of the Greenskin Empire, it has a heavily guarded void defense line. A large number of Greenskin void defense platforms and various facilities form the core of the defense line.

The Human Empire fleet appeared directly in the center of the defense line, and its appearance was too sudden. The fleets of various legions that had been prepared for battle immediately began to crush the defense line.

Even without the help of the Webway and the positional advantage, this Void Defense Line would still be broken, because there was not even a single warship in the entire Ullanor galaxy, and the defensive facilities in the Void Defense Line alone would not be able to intercept a large fleet.

There are no warships in the Ullanor system, which is suspicious, but not enough to have the effect of an empty city plan.

The Vanguard Fleet is still executing its strategic plan normally.

The Word Bearers flagship, equipped with advanced detection equipment, scanned every planet in the galaxy and projected the situation on the planet onto the command deck of the Resolute Resolve, where it was displayed visually on the holographic image that the Primarchs were watching.

"Eliminate all worlds except Ullanor I," Angron ordered the officer operating the holographic imaging device, "We only need to focus on the world where the Alien Emperor is."

After the officer followed the Primarch's orders, Ullanor 1 and a nearby satellite were magnified, and all the information scanned by the Word Bearers flagship was displayed more clearly.

After seeing the situation of Ullanor I and Ullanor I, Mortarion, who most hoped that the Vanguard could directly capture the core world of the Alien Empire, fell silent.

At a glance, the planets and satellites are full of defense facilities.

Even the planets and satellites have been transformed to the point where they can no longer be called natural celestial bodies. The only difference from the planet Goron is that they were originally natural celestial bodies, but were slowly transformed by the greenskins into beast-like celestial bodies.

The two planets exist entirely for defense, with void shields used to defend against orbital bombardment, void shields used to protect a fortress, and even void shields used to protect the internal structure of the planet... there are countless layers of void shields.

That terrifying-looking celestial body is covered with a large number of anti-aircraft weapons or anti-orbital weapons. These weapons are so large that they can be called defense facilities.

Perturabo, one of the six Primarchs, stared at the holographic image, while the other brothers watched him, waiting silently.

No one would interrupt at this time.

"Due to its size, Umoja is relatively easy to deal with compared to planets." Perturabo gave a suggestion after thinking about it, "We should find a way to occupy Umoja and then turn Umoja itself into our weapon."

"You want to use it to hit Ullanor I," Angron asked. Perturabo pointed to Ullanor I and said, "That's it. Turn it into a weapon. As long as we can occupy it, I will have a way to build a facility that can push the satellite to hit the planet. Once this satellite becomes our weapon, it will be more effective than the orbital bombardment of all our warships."

When the Lord of Steel came up with his plan, the fleet was already attempting to bomb Ullanor I and the satellites.

The fleet's firepower easily overloaded the void shields protecting the planets and moons, but then the void shields emerged again to withstand the bombardment.

"The aliens have built a void shield array inside the planet." Perturabo zoomed in on the planet diagram. "Using orbital bombardment to force the void shield generator to overload and break through the defense, and then using orbital bombardment to quickly resolve the war, this strategy is not feasible. You have to know that this is the capital of the Ullanor Empire."

“Perhaps we could use the Forge Engine to force the two bodies to disintegrate,” Mortarion suggested.

The other Primarchs immediately recalled the war when Lorgar first arrived at the front.

The forge engines forced the celestial body to disintegrate, tearing through the greenskins' defenses.

“If this trick hadn’t been used before, it might have worked.” Angron shook his head, “But we have.”

Perturabo agreed. The Ullanor Empire would never forget to build gravity stabilizers on Ullanor I and Ullanor II.

"What about the decapitation operation?" Curze stretched out his hand and pointed at the giant building on Ullanor I that was probably the greenskin palace. "I will lead the elite troops to parachute down and carry out a surprise decapitation operation."

"Emperor Ullanor is surrounded by dozens of guards who are as strong as warlords. Are you going to die?" Mortarion asked back in a cold voice.

But Qin Xia has a different opinion from Mortarion about Curze's plan.

The conventional decapitation plan is indeed feasible, and if Horus gets here, he will use the decapitation plan to kill Emperor Ullanor.

The details are unclear, but it was a success.

"Prepare for both scenarios." Angron made the decision, "Prepare to attack Wuweiyi, and at the same time arrange for the decapitation troops to raid the alien palace. I think the decapitation operation may not be impossible, but it will require multiple attempts."

"Koz and I will carry out the decapitation operation." Qin Xia looked at his adopted son.

Angron stared at his adoptive father, and after a few seconds he warned: "The decapitation operation is a exploratory attack. If..."

"I understand." Qin Xia patted the original body's shoulder.

As a psychic, Qin Xia's height is often not fixed. For example, now he can just stretch out his hand and pat the original body's shoulder.

After patting him lightly, Qin Xia smiled, turned around and walked out of the command deck.

The moment the gate opened, Qin Xia put on his helmet and was teleported to the deck of the Resolute Determination, which was specially used to gather troops before the battle.

Angron immediately arranged personnel to carry out the decapitation operation for his adoptive father. At this time, Legion Commander Kiel, who had been standing silently beside him, handed over a document.

Koze began to select people from the Night Lords Legion who he was willing to take with him to carry out decapitation operations.

Sevasta.

The first person Curze thought of was his most trusted offspring, but then he changed his mind because he was afraid that Sevatar would die in the battle.

However, a decapitation operation requires a trustworthy and powerful person. After much deliberation, Koz finally decided to take Sevatar with him.

Then Koz selected another group of people.

While the two Primarchs were selecting their men, Perturabo's brain was working rapidly, formulating a strategic plan for the attack on Umatra.

……

Half an hour later.

Resolute Resolve, hangar deck three.

When Qin Xia and Koz each brought their men to the hangar deck, they saw that 20,000 World Eaters had already gathered on the deck.

Unlike usual, these World Eaters did not stand straight and compactly, but were busy doing things that had nothing to do with combat.

They gently removed the World Eaters' insignia from their armor, handed it to the flag bearer, and then put on the insignia of the Dogs of War.

After changing their insignia, the 20,000 Space Marines formed a compact square formation and stood solemnly with their helmets in their hands.

Their officers walked around the square holding their helmets.

Qin Xia could tell that every World Eater here came from a variety of regiments and companies, because the patterns on their shoulders were different.

These people were put together temporarily and formed into a square formation of 10,000 people, just like the Dalian organization period before the World Eaters' reorganization.

Seeing the arrival of the Lord of the White Knights, the officers gathered and walked up to Qin Xia, reporting the number and status of personnel in accordance with the rules and regulations, and expressed in a sonorous tone that the soldiers were ready to join the battle at any time.

The only difference is that the term used is not "chariot", but "company".

"What's going on?" Qin Xia asked with a frown.

"We are the stain on the 12th Legion during the War Dog era." The two company commanders answered in unison.

Although Qin Xia didn't know what Kil had done, he could guess what happened through one or two sentences and observation.

The battle is imminent.

"Prepare for battle." Qin Xia looked at the Space Marines in front of him and said in a calm voice that everyone could hear, "Sons of Angron."

The two company commanders immediately put on their helmets.

A total of 20,000 war dogs from the two companies behind him put on their helmets at the same time, in unison.

Tens of thousands of scarlet lights from tactical eyepieces lit up simultaneously on the dimly lit deck.

"For Angron!"

The captain drew his chainsaw axe and struck it hard on the breastplate.

"For Angron!"

"For Angron!"

The snow and wind spread across the deck.

When the entire deck was completely covered by wind and snow, the war roars stopped abruptly, and all the personnel gathered on the deck were teleported to a location on the surface carefully selected by Qin Xia.
