The Flesh Tearers Chapter is fighting off the swarm on Bawei, and the Captain is enough to represent their entire Chapter. Of course, they can refuse to have Terminator Armor.
And this is in line with the thoughts of most people present.
The Flesh Tearers Chapter can easily fall into blood thirst and black rage, and some sources even claim that in the next few years, more people in the Flesh Tearers Chapter will suffer from blood thirst and black rage than normal people.
If there's any Chapter that can't get the Terminator Armor, it's the Flesh Tearers Chapter.
But Dante issued an unexpected order: "The Flesh Tearers can have fifty sets of power armor, but these power armors will only be sent to the hands of your group leader. He knows who among his warriors is mentally powerful." A determined man.”
The Flesh Tearer Captain nodded, saluted, and stood back.
"That's it." Dante looked at the others, "The first company of each battle group will get Terminator armor, and the remaining armors will be placed in the warehouse and used to replenish battle losses at any time."
There is a treasure house in the Angel Fortress. Dante said that he would put the remaining Terminator Armor into the warehouse instead of the treasure house. This shows that he does not want to monopolize those Armors. Each war group has the right to enter the warehouse to obtain weapons and ammunition, so naturally Terminator armor lost in battle can be used.
"You are too careful." Mephiston used his psychic powers to convey a message to Dante.
Dante looked at the think tank and smiled helplessly.
Since the beginning of the Baal Defense War, Dante has been carefully recruiting subgroups and maintaining relationships.
Because since the Codex Astartes decreed that the legion was split into war groups, the Blood Angels parent group has lost the command of the sub-groups, and the sub-groups are not obliged to obey the dispatch of the parent group.
Dante used his personality charm and methods to impress the various chapter leaders, but he still had to be careful to maintain this relationship.
"The meeting is over." Dante motioned for everyone to leave.
This meeting is actually not a meeting at all, it is just for everyone to be present to welcome the new Weeper war group.
Other war groups also received the same treatment. When they came to Baal, Dante personally led people to greet them, and then came to the meeting hall to say words of thanks and welcome.
But Dante didn't expect that the Weeper would bring a big gift, and the reception would turn into a meeting.
The Chapter Masters and Chapter Representatives left the council chamber and returned to their fighting stations.
Soon only Foros and Dante were left in the hall.
The reason why Foros didn't leave was because he noticed that Dante looked at him before giving the order, as if he intended to let him stay.
Dante stood up and walked to Foros, who was still frowning.
Three thousand sets of Terminator Armor can provide great help to each battle group in a desperate situation, but this does not mean that each battle group will stop and kill the gods next. Dante still sees no hope of victory.
Dante believes that he must tell Foros the desperate situation he is facing and let him choose whether to stay or go.
This is a choice that belongs exclusively to the Weeper Chapter, not because Dante prefers them, but because he feels that since the Weeper can come, there must be a way to leave.
"Live up to the blood of Sanguinius." Foros saw what Dante wanted to say and expressed his attitude before Dante did. "We will live and die with Baal."
Dante looked at Foros silent for a few seconds, then nodded: "Live up to the blood of Sanguinius."
Chapter 265 Enlightened Judge
……
With the entire regiment of Lamenters armed with Terminator Armor joining the defense, and the good intentions of Lord Talon, the original defense plan had to be changed.
When formulating a defense plan, Dante asked each sub-group to send a representative to the meeting hall to participate in the formulation of strategy.
This is actually not necessary, because the sub-group completely trusts Dante and is willing to follow his orders, but Dante's approach shows respect for the sub-group. The representatives will not refute any of Dante's decisions in the meeting, and will do so in the meeting. After the meeting, he returned to the warband and announced the importance Dante placed on everyone in formulating his strategy.
New defense plans were quickly drawn up.
Lamenters are evenly distributed on the inner walls of the core area of the fortress, assisting each war group or blood slave unit in defense.
In micro battles, a team of Terminators is enough to significantly reduce the pressure on the defenders.
Since Foros explained in the meeting that there is a teleportation device on his ship, and there are a lot of teleportation protection equipment that can be used, Dante also mobilized elite warriors from each battle group whose combat power is comparable to that of a company commander to form a teleportation decapitation team. Team.
In the next month, the core area resisted the endless sea of insects.
The Weeper's technical sergeants use the telescope that can be linked to the flagship to carry out orbital strikes. They clear an area in the sea of worms before the teleportation and decapitation team goes out to fight. Then the teleportation and decapitation team will suddenly appear in front of the tyrant who survived the orbital strike, and will After being decapitated, he was teleported back to the fortress.
Everything seemed to be going well, but everyone in the garrison didn't know when this kind of day would end.
……
"Not normal."
Another day of fighting against the swarm of insects.
Foros and Karaon and the Weeper Chapter Guards stayed at the end of the tunnel at the bottom of the fortress, clearing out the Genestealers and Licat Assassins who tried to sneak in through the tunnel.
Karan smashed Likart in front of him with a hammer, and repeated what he just said: "It's not normal."
"You mean these Licats?" Foros swung his spear and pierced two Licats one after another. "They seem to be constantly reborn, and they are very smart and can learn."
Froese found himself increasingly struggling to deal with Likart.
At first, he could easily kill them with one spear, then he had to take at least two attacks, and now he had to focus on fighting with Likart before he could find the opportunity to kill them with one blow.
Karaan noticed this too, but he wasn't talking about Likart.
"I mean this war."
"This war is not normal."
Karan was talking as he fought.
"Based on my previous experience, the bugs' attacks should become more and more ferocious and cunning."
"But we have been fighting with them for a month, and their attack at this moment is not much different from the attack a month ago. Even those giant bugs like Titans are rare."
"Something's obviously not right."
What Karan said was listened to by Foros, and the two of them came to the same conclusion without much discussion.
That is what is holding the bugs back, preventing them from investing more troops into Baal, but the bugs still have a special hostility towards Baal and will not give up attacking here.
"I understand what you mean." Foros stopped, "But we will lose if we continue like this. Bugs are endless, but our brothers and mortals are not."
Karan nodded silently, fully agreeing with Foros's pessimistic inference.
Foros continued to fight, and he suddenly recalled Judge Bellona who once wanted to come to Baal with him.
At first, everyone left Cardia together, but Bellona said she had something to do and left again halfway.
Foros still remembered that when he asked Bellona if she wanted to go to Baal, Bellona said that she would definitely go, but it would be a little late.
But now it seems that ships using warp engines may not be able to penetrate the Zerg's biological fleet before reaching Baal.
"The battle is over for now, brothers."
The Second Company Commander of the Blood Angels brought his subordinates to Foros and Karan. They came to change shifts.
As before, Foros and Karan handed over the responsibility of defense to the replacements, and then led the exhausted warriors out of the underground.
As the two men walked out of the tunnel together, the sound of anti-aircraft artillery and various bolt weapons firing became increasingly clear.
There is still that large "black fog" in the sky.
The inner wall cannot be seen from this side of the tunnel, but the sound of gunfire and artillery fire from the other side is enough to prove how fierce the battle is on the inner wall.
"Wait a minute." Karan suddenly stopped and pressed Foros's shoulders to tell him to look up to the sky. "Is that your flagship?"
Foros raised his head and saw a battleship in orbit, but it was not like the Storm Lady: "No, my flagship is not that small."
As soon as he finished speaking, the battleship in orbit disappeared instantly.
The blue rift that opened before the battleship disappeared allowed Foros to identify it. It was definitely a ship using a dimensional engine.
"Maybe it's the Tyrone Navy," Foros said excitedly.
He had always hoped that the Tyrone Navy would appear in the galaxy to help Barr rescue the siege, but he only hoped that because the Tyrone Navy had just ended the battle in Cadia, and many crew members suddenly found themselves hearing strange whispers for a long time, they would not It is very likely that he will come to Baal immediately after his vacation to join the war.
As Foros looked out over the empty orbit, a transmission appeared in his helmet.
"Chapter Commander, come to the meeting hall quickly!"
"what's up?"
"Anyway, come here...trust me, you will be happy."
……
Foros came to the meeting hall in the center of the fortress.
The first thing he saw was Dante, and the white-haired female judge who was being received by Dante, it was Bellona.
Bellona glanced at Foros before continuing her conversation with Dante.
Beside Bellona stood the captains of the Lamenters Chapter.
Just as Foros was about to ask why he was urged to come, his inquiry was interrupted by a thumping sound that echoed in the hall.
Foros looked around and saw a Dreadnought mecha painted in yellow with the logo of the Weeper Chapter.
"Young man!" The fearless mecha made a cold voice, followed by a choking sound like crying, "I...I..."
Foros was stunned for two seconds, and then immediately knelt down on one knee to Wuwei. He was also very excited: "Lord Kailon, you..."
The Dreadnaught named Kyron was the only remaining Dreadnought of the Lamenters Chapter. This Dreadnought disappeared after the original Stormmaiden was blown up by the Minotaur flagship.
Foros thought that Chiron was dead, but he didn't expect to meet him on Baal.
Before and after becoming the Chapter Master, Foros received guidance and teachings from Chiron. Chiron would always tell the story of the Chapter's past when he woke up. He even knew what happened when the Legion split up and became a Chapter.
Chapter 266 No matter the cost
"I thought our entire Chapter was...those damn High Lord lackeys..."
The Dreadnought Mecha was full of disabled people, and their consciousness was not very clear to begin with. At this time, coupled with the extremely exciting reunion of old people, they spoke intermittently.
Foros still understood what Chiron said. He was scolding the Minotaur Chapter.
It was precisely because the Minotaur Chapter attacked the Lamenters during the Badab War that Chiron was forced to separate from the Chapter.
But when it came to the Badab War, Foros had mixed feelings. It was really difficult to blame all the mistakes on the Minotaur Chapter.
Moreover, some words were really hard to say directly. Apart from Dante, there was also the judge Bellona among the people present.
But Chiron can say that, because he is a veteran of the Chapter, a veteran who can endure the torture of the Dreadnought, and continues to fight for the Emperor with his broken body for thousands of years.
"I brought him here." Bellona ended her greetings with Dante, walked up to Foros, and looked at Chiron, "I once fought side by side with the Death Watch during some investigative operations, and Chiron had been captured at that time. Thinking he was the only survivor of the Chapter, he joined the Death Watch.”
