Chapter 1021, All Under My Command

Chapter 1021, All Under My Command
The troops personally led by Erganglong are the main force of the Angels of Death.

More than five thousand Death Angels and their subordinate units descended upon the surface of Rainborn. Accompanying them were tens of millions of Astral Army troops.

Overall, the number of them is not only large, but also highly elite.

Leaving aside the precious Space Marines, the tens of millions of Asgardian soldiers are also a very important trump card for Orgron. Given the limited forces that can be deployed to the ground in a short period of time, in order to ensure that the landing attack has sufficient power, it is natural to select the most powerful troops from the vast mortal army.

In other words, Organlon could even accept that this offensive failed to achieve its combat objective and that it failed to eliminate Bassol.

After all, if this wave of attack fails, there's always the next one.

However, he absolutely could not accept the complete annihilation of the troops sent to the ground.

That means his strongest force has been systematically wiped out.

This also contributed to the failure of the entire battle, leaving them with no chance of a comeback.

However, this very situation, which he found most unacceptable, was actually happening.

According to the original intelligence, the enemies on the ground should be within their capabilities to defeat. Their previous advantage wasn't fake; even Bassol was forced to use it!
However, the facts proved that their previous advantage was false, and that it was a plan by the enemy to lure them into a trap.

Worse still, Erganglong was also affected.

From the dense forest that resembled the Chapter's homeworld, countless twisted beasts emerged. They mingled with the Chaos Legion and the demonic forces, putting immense pressure on the Angels of Death.

Furthermore, this chaotic demon army is very characteristic of Bassol. The number of mechanical units within the demonic forces under this 'creator' is enormous.

Those are demonic engines!
The bound demons were stuffed into mechanical bodies. They directly acted as 'pilots', and even transformed into war machines and demon mechs with the nature of 'souls'.

Compared to human heavy armored vehicles, knightly mechs, and Titans, these are far more agile and maneuverable. After all, the operation of these demonic engines is accomplished by a single soul, requiring no coordination between pilots.

Carrying eternal flames, they clashed violently with the human heavy armored forces, instantly causing considerable casualties.

Although the number of Chaos Space Marines in the Chaos Army is less than that of the Angels of Death, Orgron's forces must allocate a significant portion of their elite warriors to deal with the terrifying demon engines and mutated beasts in order to assist the mortal forces in holding the line.

If they were only facing enemies, that would be one thing, but the more critical issue is that the entire planet seems to be their enemy!
The earth suddenly trembled, causing an entire trench to collapse and burying entire units of soldiers inside.
The twisted forest will move and submerge the newly cleared transport and logistics supply lines;
Monsters disguised themselves as trees, and their branches suddenly lashed out like iron whips, capable of snapping any approaching soldier in half with a single blow.

These kinds of alienated environments made it extremely difficult for the human warriors fighting within them.

At the beginning, Erganlong was still sending troops to the ground and calling for naval gun support.

But as the war progressed, especially after many of their approaching warships were destroyed by previously concealed anti-orbital fire while attempting to provide orbital bombardment support, Organlon had to admit the reality: they had indeed fallen into a trap. Even if they continued to hold out, risking total annihilation, they might not be able to turn the tide of the war.

And then, one piece of bad news after another came.

Was the enemy merely luring them deep into Yusheng Star in an attempt to annihilate their forces as much as possible?

Yes, but it's more than that.

This was also a successful diversionary tactic.

As Organlon personally led his troops to land on the ground, the enemy's offensive against the Stone Monastery began.

Just as Organron on Rainborn Star had shifted its focus from how to win the war to how to evacuate as many of its landed troops as possible, the Death Angels' stronghold, the Stone Monastery, which was heavily guarded even at the most critical moment, was attacked.

The Chaos enemies, using warp magic, bypassed the defenses and teleported numerous troops into the giant rock. A large number of boarding ships also broke through the blockade to provide support.

A fierce battle has begun on the monolith. Despite the large number of defenders, the Monastery was at its weakest when Organron deployed thousands of Space Marines and tens of millions of its most elite ground troops to the planet Rainborn.

He once considered abandoning the ground troops and taking as many elite soldiers as possible away from the surface.

If you fail, you must admit it. The most important thing now is to save the boulder.

However, how could the enemy possibly let them go so easily at this point?

Organron's target for revenge: the avatar of Bassol, appeared nearby.

The powerful mechanical evil god, with a massive army, pressed forward head-on, clearly intending to tie them down here and prevent them from returning to their aid.

At this point, Erganglong felt a chill run through his body.

He regretted it.

Why not cooperate properly with the league?
Since they have acknowledged the new empire and dare not go against the tide, why are they so hesitant and reluctant to cooperate?
If we can unite with the new empire and the alliance, will we be able to get more support when we take action?

Even if the troops he led here are still only this many, in such a dire situation, is there anyone else he can ask for help from?
And now, there's nothing left.

Who can save them?

Can we still expect the Alliance and Blood Angels to descend from the sky and rescue us like last time?
It really works.

When the flagship of the Blood Angels, the Glory Queen-class warship, arrived in the Rainborn system with the magnificent Alliance expeditionary fleet, leaping out of the astral tunnel, Organron was astonished.

Were you moved?
Of course there is.

At the same time, there was also a strong sense of shame.

I was rescued again...

what a shame……

The chaotic signals on the battlefield prevented both sides from establishing stable and smooth communication. However, observation revealed that the Blood Angels' fleet split into two groups, one supporting the Stone Monastery and stabilizing the situation almost instantly.

Another route headed straight for Yusheng Star, with a large number of airborne troops landing from the ships.

The salvation of the Great Stone Monastery is something Organlon would like to see.

But it's different when it comes to the Rain Star.

This is a trap!
In his view, the most important thing to do was to facilitate their evacuation. Further plans could be made only after ensuring the safety of the Great Stone Monastery.

After making contact with the Blood Angels who had landed, he immediately reached out to them and made his demands.

Even in such a state, Orgon remained proud. Even with Dante himself present, this was his home turf, and he naturally placed himself in the position of commander-in-chief.

However, a majestic voice said to him:

"From this moment forward, the Angels of Death and their colonies of Space Marines, as well as all human forces that can hear my voice, shall obey my command."
