Warhammer 40: Starting as a Rogue Trader

Chapter 47 Your Ronin Trader is Here

"Quick! Pull up the reserves! Give weapons to the refugees, and get everyone who can move to fight!
They are under the protection of the dynasty, so they must fight for the dynasty, even if it means sacrificing their lives!"

Rebecca had walked out of the tactical center and arrived at the front line. She roared and mobilized all the forces she could, but the front line still advanced towards the royal court area.

She could even see artillery fire in the distance.

"Governor! It's dangerous here!" The guard wanted to pull Rebecca back, but was directly rejected by Rebecca.

"Bang~"

A huge explosion came from the Pilgrim's Square, and the sacred statue of the Emperor was tilting and falling to the ground.

The traitors overthrew the icons of the God-Emperor and desecrated them with the blood of the loyal.

"God-Emperor above... the Emperor's statue has fallen... is this the end?"

Rebecca could even see the traitor's army directly from where she was.

The massive body of the Forge Demon was heading this way, waiting for Rebecca to decide to fulfill her oath to the dynasty with her own life.

She saw a barrage of missiles suddenly appear from mid-air.

A large number of dense missiles directly plowed through the traitor's team.

Even the forging demon was blown to pieces by the continuous barrage of bullets.

"Oh! Awesome! Those who blaspheme the Emperor will be punished with his wrath!" Harlan shouted excitedly.

He successfully killed a forging demon. If he were in the Imperial Navy, such a record might allow him to be promoted several levels!

It was those 30 invisible Banshees that launched the attack. After completing their mission, they gathered towards the Royal Court as agreed.

As soon as I arrived here, I discovered the attack of the cultists. I watched as humans were slaughtered by these lunatics and the holy icons were desecrated.

Harlan acted decisively and asked all the banshees to join the battle.

The Banshees maneuvered at high speed in stealth mode, their plastic-steel shells continuously reaping the lives of the enemy, giving the loyalists a chance to buffer.

However, the Banshees were running out of ammunition and the energy to maintain their invisibility was almost exhausted. One Banshee after another had to withdraw from the battle after running out of ammunition.

Harlan drove the Banshee to the sky above Pilgrim Avenue, and the tragic scene there made his scalp tingle.

The Word Bearers who were desecrating the priest's body immediately attracted his attention.

"Chaos Space Marines... Oh my God-Emperor... Why are they here?"

Harlan checked the remaining ammunition in the Banshee and then took aim at the two Word Bearers.

"Go to hell! Traitor!"

But what Harlan didn't expect was that before the ammunition was even fired, this group of Word Bearers all looked in his direction.

The Astartes' keen hearing allowed them to hear the sound of the Banshee engines in mid-air amidst the clamor of the battlefield.

Being inhabited by demons further heightened their senses.

"There are stealth aircraft there."

"I heard it too."

Harlan was frightened by the look on his face. He immediately pressed the launch button, but facing the incoming missiles, the group of Word Bearers immediately took off running.

This was the first time Harlan had seen a Space Marine running at full speed.

"Fast... so fast! God-Emperor, even the Taurus Assault Vehicle isn't as fast as them, right?"

A series of missiles were fired into the air.

The Word Bearers who were targeted immediately raised their bolters and fired back!

The bomb actually hit the invisible banshee accurately.

They actually managed to lock onto the invisible banshee just by relying on their hearing.

After being hit continuously, black smoke suddenly came out of the Banshee and a sharp alarm sounded inside the fighter. After all, the Banshee was only a light fighter and its external armor was not enough to withstand the shooting.

Harlan no longer dared to linger, and immediately sped away from the battlefield. "A fighter plane I've never seen before... a new invention from the corrupt empire? It's vulnerable..."

After seeing the Banshee leave, the Word Bearers did not continue to pursue her, but continued to advance with the main force.

The Banshee's tactical goal has also been achieved.

At this time, Gao Yi's support also arrived.

Although Gao Yi's fleet could not directly enter the atmosphere, without the obstruction of anti-aircraft firepower, he could use shuttles to send his soldiers to the upper nest without restraint.

Gao Yi mobilized all available shuttles and transport ships in the fleet and distributed all CMC combat uniforms.

During this period, the barracks' uninterrupted production has brought the inventory of machine gunners' CMC combat uniforms to 4000 sets, and a large number of pillagers, firebats, and medics have also been produced.

The various types of combat uniforms are sufficient to arm 4500 combatants.

Transport ships and shuttles flew towards the upper nest.

Gao Yi also changed into his own platinum combat suit and took a shuttle to the ground.

Looking down from the sky, the traitors had already mixed in with the loyalists.

Brutal close combat is taking people's lives every moment.

"Send a message to the Governor and tell her that their traveling traders are coming! Pay attention to identifying friend or foe!" Gao Yi tightly gripped the power sword in his hand.

Both sides of the battle noticed a large number of flying vehicles flying rapidly overhead.

The loyalists saw the emblem of the dynasty.

"God-Emperor! The Rogue Trader has returned... The Rogue Trader has truly returned!"

The rebels' faces did not look very good.

Especially those PDF soldiers from the Valentine family.

Although they have been eroded by Chaos, they have not been completely assimilated by Chaos. Most of them have been swept up in the tide of Chaos and joined the rebellion.

The majesty of the Rogue Traders is still deeply engraved in the minds of these warriors who have served the dynasty for generations.

"Damn it... Why did it have to happen at this moment? It was so close! But it doesn't matter. The situation has come to this point, and there's nothing you can do to change it!"

Valentine watched from behind. His followers and soldiers had already stormed into the Upper Nest. Even if the Rogue Traders returned, what would happen? How many soldiers could these transport ships carry? Three, four thousand? Even ten thousand? The disparity in numbers between the two sides was still terrifying.

And he has the assistance of those powerful Word Bearers.

But when the Rangers wearing CMC walked out of the transport ship and joined the battle, Valentine immediately realized that something was wrong.

Rows of looters standing together looked like a seemingly endless battery.

The ceramic steel armor material also allows them to withstand the traitors' counterattacks and suppress them with firepower.

Medics were constantly repairing the injured raiders in the background.

And most of the machine gunners are powerful fighters who can defeat enemies from far and near.

"Power armor? No... force feedback armor? How is that possible? How can there be so many force feedback armors? What on earth did this guy named Gao Yi do?"

Thousands of soldiers in force-feedback armor? Valentine had never heard of such a thing in his life. Even the richest Rogue Trader in the entire Expanse wouldn't do such a thing!
But seeing the soldiers who had finally rushed into the upper nest being slowly suppressed back, Valentine had to accept this fact.

The SCVs that arrived with the transport ship began to repair the damaged fixed firepower in various places.

When some Chaos believers think that this is just an ordinary machine and want to go forward to destroy it, SCV will tell them what the strongest melee is!

The engineering drill directly drilled the approaching Chaos Cultist into a ball of minced meat.

"Ahhhhhhhh! Impossible! Why is this happening?! I was so close to success!"

Now the only thing Valentine can count on are those demon engines and the powerful Word Bearers.

He believed that as long as these people who had been blessed by the Dark Gods were still there, they would be able to change the situation of the war!

He has absolute faith in the power of the Dark Gods.
