Warhammer: I am the Hammer of the Empire - #90 - Chapter 88 Falakxia 113 Irregular Legion

Several Chimera armored vehicles were driving along the endless coast. The 4th Skadi Regiment only escorted them to the vicinity of the fortress. The place that was once a mining world basically had no mountains for transportation. The mountains were hollowed out. The hole for convenient transportation was filled, but if the world had not had a huge ocean, it would have been dug out by the empire.

It is hard to imagine that the golden beach and the gentle breeze in the garden world in front of them were not such a majestic place a hundred years ago. The world-changing technology of the Tau has reached an incredible level.

What is even more incomprehensible is whether the endless blue ocean in front of them was dug out by the empire…

Could the beauty of that world be considered a “cooperation” between the two races?

Then the staff officer’s words, accompanied by the hum of the Chimera engine, interrupted Alan Bair’s thoughts. “Captain, what if there is a trap?”

Alan Beyer replied. “Of course, if he was not a Tau, he would definitely design a trap like that, let a few Imperial traitors pretend to be Astra Militarum, and then huddle in a restored Imperial facility, and then wait for them to get close and kill them on the plains. “

“Afterwards, it was pretended to be an accident and accident, and the Skadi Fourth Regiment, which lost its commander and staff, was leaderless and initially accepted the concept of Zai Zai Shan Dao.”

The staff officer was frightened by that idea, but it was definitely not what those blue-skins would do. In his eyes, one of the Tau and the Orcs liked to talk nicely, while the other liked to do things directly. In comparison, he preferred the latter.

“Then why should I go?”

Alan Bayer said something that was a bit naive, but full of reasonable motives. “Because the Emperor’s people are there, don’t they, the Astra Militarum, live by denying that?”

“If there was a choice between keeping hundreds of millions of loyal souls in a world and getting a beautiful garden world, he would choose the former without hesitation.”

“Advisor, the most precious thing in that world has never been material, but the human spirit, which is something that the world covets in all existences. On the contrary, the empire is vast, and any material existence I can imagine is there. in the galaxy, but the loyal will always be defeated.”

“If those people are really followers of the Emperor and subjects of the Empire, the 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment should pull them out of the alien world, from that seemingly beautiful hell to the real hell, but whether they are there The real hell is where the human soul has a place to go.”

The staff officer didn’t answer. He drove the car intently, and the auspicious ticking echoed, scanning everything that could be found. It was surprisingly quiet there, as if everything in titanium had stopped there, occupied by creatures, birds, and forests. The ground, and then there was the unpleasant smell of promethium and the unique sound of gears of imperial equipment.

“He… the smell is definitely there. Is there anyone from the Empire there…” Alan Bair couldn’t help but comment, it smelled similar to the nest.

The staff officer had to nod, because he had already seen, in the distance, the dense dark castle, the thick alloy metal, and several bolt barrels and logging guns standing in the shooting holes.

But it is not a particularly powerful stronghold there. It should be said that the Mechanicus Order was bombed to the point where only a courtyard was left. Even the Mechanicum-style bell and golden gears were half of them. The faint void protection The shield is looming on the surface, and there is no shortage of anti-orbital beams.

“No wonder those blue guys can’t get to that place. The oil guys always keep the good stuff at home.” Alan Beyer looked at that place and marveled.

“Captain, what do I call the Mechanic Priests?” The staff officer pressed his ears to make sure he heard correctly.

“The oil man, that’s what he calls them in private.” Alan Bayer replied nonchalantly.

The staff officer nodded. “Appropriate, how can it be so appropriate!”

“Okay, let’s get down to business.” Alan Bayer turned on the communicator.

“Second Lieutenant, put up their regimental flag, and then use the Imperial Guard’s radio frequency to ask questions using the sentry outside the firing range.” Alan Bair ordered, and the Second Lieutenant grimaced.

“Why can’t he do anything?” The second lieutenant walked in the narrow cockpit of the Sentinel mecha. His whole body was curled up, his head hanging down on the observation hole. He was used to driving in this posture for a long time. He always There will be serious spinal problems if you eat cocoa…

The lieutenant turned on the communicator. “Sentinel team, get to work. Open the safety of the cluster beam gun and try to maneuver as much as possible. If you shoot from the wrong side, they will be far away.”

“After confirming the communication willingness of the radio and the other side, report to the group leader, end.”

After a while, three walkers equipped with the most sophisticated gyroscopes in the empire left the bunker. The roar of servers and the clicking sounds of mechanical structures continued. Moreover, it was definitely not full coverage. It even had observation holes similar to those of armored vehicles. Some of them were The sentinels of the engineering force were not even equipped with “convertibles”.

But that doesn’t mean the infantry regiment has the best armor. The one at the front of the three sentries is the second lieutenant’s cavalry. It is currently carrying the flag of the Skadi Fourth Infantry Regiment and constantly emitting radio frequencies.

In the fortress, a brown-haired woman who looked like an Imperial officer climbed up from the mechanical creation of the Tau. She was recycling the machinery. This showed how stretched the Imperial Guard there were after leaving the Empire’s supplies, even the beam guns in their legs. They are all rail rifles wrapped in beam gun shells.

“Tongxunxu, their 200-year-old imperial communicator has moved?” She looked in disbelief at Tongxunxu in front of her, who was messing with his legs and feet to operate a radio that he had almost never touched in his life.

“Captain, no, it moved! An Imperial Guard has discovered them, God Emperor!” Tong Xunwen burst into tears. They seemed to be wearing Imperial Guard uniforms, but in fact it was not difficult to find that their bulletproof armors were not made of titanium. The battle uniforms of the Imperial Fire Caste warriors cut from the east…

It can be said that apart from looking like the Imperial Guard and not having the same spirit as the Imperial Guard, none of their equipment comes from the Empire. They have been trapped in the alien world for three hundred years. How strong their will and belief are to allow the Emperor’s light to continue for three generations. ?

The woman named Zaiwei swept the table clean among the messy Tau machines, and even cut the palms of her legs with those sharp blades, holding the scarlet-colored leg fingers that they had modified. Tau communicator.

“The Empire, come to pick them up! The Emperor is here, they are coming… coming… woo…” The Imperial Guards will not cry. They are definitely not considered Imperial Guards, but the choking sounds are heard in the remaining fortress of the Mechanicum. keep appearing.

They did not choose to become the Tau Alliance, and they did not die in the war. They were the most confused people in the world, but Tong Xunxu quickly answered. “He… doesn’t know how to use it… it’s old, even though they scrub it every day, expect it to make a sound every day, and they haven’t even touched anything on it, but… it’s been too long.”

Then the woman wiped her tears. “Major, Major Jayne must know that if he can’t get through, ask the engineering department to carry away the entire table and all the equipment!”

Tongxun Xima was turning on the communicator. Almost instantly, the order came through. Dozens of people carried the entire thick imperial command communication equipment on their backs, as if they were carrying their own mothers, and the communicator kept making sounds.

“The 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment, the 4th Skadi Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel of the Imperial Guard, and Alan Bair’s troops are requesting a call. Loyalists who are holding on, please go home.”

“The 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment, the 4th Skadi Regiment, Lieutenant Colonel of the Imperial Guard, and Alan Bair’s troops are requesting a call. Loyalists who are holding on, please go home.”

The people carrying the equipment burst into tears. They quickened their pace and reached the deepest part of the fortress. The heavy metal door slowly opened and the gears creaked.

And that location was obviously used as a headquarters. There were messy wires and shabby tactical drawings that looked like they were hundreds of years old. They showed the surface of the world when it was not a mining world. Countless staff officers stood up and walked toward the engineering department. members, or the things they bring with them to perform the Aquila Ceremony.

The commander-in-chief there is an old man with red hair. His body is almost shriveled, like a mummy. The mechanical transformation has kept him alive, but the transformation he made when he was young and serving was not maintained by the Imperial Mechanicus. It has long been a candle in the wind.

The military uniforms looked big and wide. The military uniforms of the empire’s school-level officers looked too heavy to crush the old man. The glittering badges on the chest made people feel more dazzling.

That woman is showing off to the great man. “Major Jayne Noct, recipient of the Medal of Steadfast Steps, was awarded the Heart of the Crown Medal in Sindisos, Xu Pei’s Red Skull.”

“Their Commander-in-Chief, the Empire has come to pick them up, but they are so stupid that they have forgotten any communication. Please…”

The twilight old man listened to the sizzling electromagnetic sound and the calls coming from the communicator. He stood up tremblingly with the help of several soldiers.

He used his skeletal leg fingers to wave the creation that had not been used for three hundred years but was still not forgotten, and then spoke in a voice like a broken bellows. “Flaxia, Fulake…Xia, 113th Infantry Regiment, commander…Major, Jayne Noct, reporting to you…”

The second lieutenant was stunned. He had been calling for almost ten minutes. He immediately begged to give up, and then asked the commander how he came to the east, but such an old voice answered…

He immediately switched to the external channel and passed the report to Captain Alan Bair.

Alan Bair heard the voice, it was old and powerful, and the Astra Militarum soldiers there couldn’t help but stand in awe. “The 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment replied, I heard, Major, the Empire has not forgotten your existence, even if the complicated communication delayed things, he hopes they are not too late.”

The Major’s old voice came back to him. “Lieutenant Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel, are those aliens dead? Those damn blueskins, those blueskins who killed his comrades… did they go to the hell that belongs to the aliens?”

The Major stretched out his legs tremblingly, grabbed his pillow with all his strength, as if it was the heaviest thing in the world, and then took out a box from the east, full of it, all of which had the dog tags of the Imperial Guard Astra Militarum. .

He took off the metal plaque inside his military uniform and continued to ask. “The Empire, did you take back that world?”

Alan Bair heard his desire and his fate soon, and he looked at the sky. “Congratulations, Major. They won. The 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment and the Imperial Moon-class strike cruiser, the Bordeaux, successfully logged into that world last month and wiped out all the aliens.”

“Now the empire is taking over there, please turn it into a beautiful garden world. You and your remaining soldiers can end your service there, become PDFs there, and enjoy what we deserve.”

answered the major. “As for the Emperor…”

After saying that, the intercom made a violent sound, like the sound of a large number of metal pieces falling to the ground.

“Hello? Major? Major?” Alan Bayer asked again and again, and the other side was very chaotic…

It wasn’t until a minute later that a crying female voice answered. “Lieutenant Kellys Arkady, commander of the 113th Irregular Regiment of Falaksia, sir, they are alive!”

“Major Danfu, his soul has returned to the throne…”

Everyone in the 4th Skadi Infantry Regiment heard what they just said wrongly, and even the three pilots in the Sentinel mecha opened the cockpit and took off their hats to salute.

Alan Beyer continued. “Fighters who have been fighting for the Emperor for three hundred years, he needs to tell us the real situation. The world is not home to Tau aliens. Can they come there as a joint Tau and Imperial mission to fight against the Tyranid Hive Fleet? of.”

“He lied to us, and I’m sorry, but we do get to come back.”

There were constant choking cries on the communicator, and the lieutenant was answering. “No, sir, no, sir, thank me, thank you… the major left with a smile, thank you, the emperor is here…”

“Everyone, they can really return to the empire. Those damn aliens have killed countless of their brothers in the past three hundred years…”

“They cannot accept that they are wrong in their belief in the God Emperor, and feel that they will join the so-called good path like those slaves…”

“Lieutenant Colonel, I’m sorry, he lost his temper a little. What should they do now?”

Alan Bayer looked at the staff officer, and the two of them looked at each other wrongly.

“We will join their mission as members of the battle group composed of the 4th Skadi Regiment and the 113th Fraxia Regiment. How many of us are there?”

The communicator answered. “Three thousand people, lieutenant colonel, three thousand people from Li Yi, 8 companies, one stingray transport vehicle and two support sharks.”

Alan Beyer couldn’t help but praise. “How about the alien military-grade armored vehicles and fire support vehicles? Can we really scare those aliens?”

“No wonder the expressions of those Tau who begged him were so sincere. Now that he has announced that the Skadi First Battle Group has been officially formed, he will become the Emperor…”

The communicator emits a call that heats the external organs. “No, Emperor!”

And in the temporary command room of the pitch-black Adeptus Mechanicus fortress, a place that had been cleared of people, there was a pile of metal hills scattered beside the bed, with the names of countless imperial heroes engraved on them, like useless waste that no one cares about. The most conspicuous dog tag is at the top, engraved on the face.

【Jayne Noct】

Suddenly, the door to the command room was slowly opened. All the members of the 113th Falakxia Irregular Regiment each picked up a dog tag, put it on their neck, and then walked towards the Imperial Guard outside the castle.

The loyal soul has not left. He will always follow the millions of men and women of the Imperial Guard. Lieutenant Kelly picked up the major’s dog tag, wiped the dust on it, and put it on.

Then saluted Lieutenant Colonel Alan Beyer.

“Flaxian 113th Regiment, return!”

Tau Army: “Let’s leave quickly. Please, the cost of the war is terrifying. How come the greenskins seem to have taken root in his family!”

Phlaxian 113th Regiment “There is no emperor’s things there, the empire’s world, we are the greenskins!”

Greenskin: “I think I’m the smartest.”
