Chapter 164 4th Legion

The Iron Warriors specialize in siege warfare and the destruction of fortifications, making them natural opponents of the Imperial Fists even during the Heresy.

The Iron Warriors are also ferocious melee masters, with witnesses comparing their ferocity to that of the Traitor Legions of the World Eaters or the loyal Legions of the Blood Angels.

The Iron Warriors commonly use slaves as cannon fodder to deplete the ammunition of the besieged and locate enemy gun positions.

Like the Iron Hands, they often use bionic mechanical prosthetics in place of mutant limbs, as they hate Chaos Mutations.

Now the Iron Warriors Legion is run by Yang Cheng and has 300 people, and all kinds of equipment are also provided to Perturabo.

"Eleven kill? What the hell is this?"

Hearing Honso's words, Perturabo began to complain about this eleven-kill rule. He didn't like this thing appearing in his legion.

Now with Perturabo is Frix the Breaker, a warsmith and First Captain of the First Battalion of the Iron Warriors Legion.

"Father"

More than 200 Space Marines from the Iron Warriors Legion half-knelt at the same time, and then shouted at the same time.

"Welcome, Perturabo, to the army of the God-Emperor's will."

Lorgar still wore the magic-stick-like attire to greet him, but what he received in response was Perturabo's eyes.

"Another feudal and superstitious fool"

Perturabo glanced at Lorgar, and then said in a dismissive tone.

"It seems that you are very dissatisfied. Although we are all descendants of the great God Emperor, but you?"

"What? Fighting?"

Perturabo looked at Lorgar dressed as a magic stick in front of him, and then said slowly.

"Glare fight? You remind me of that reckless man Angron. You won't be like him, right?"

"Angron? It seems I'm not the second one."

"You are the third, but not the last"

"Okay, magic stick, don't block the way."

Perturabo didn't have a good impression of Lorgar, especially his sleight-of-hand performance, which was exactly the same as the group of people he had come into contact with before, and was equally annoying to him.

"Come! Fight! I heard that you are the fourth son created by my father. Let me see your strength."

Lorgar couldn't help but grabbed Perturabo's arm and took him to an arena.

"Let me see where you are strong?"

Lorgar also drifted away during this period of fighting. He felt that he was invincible, but among the Primarchs, he was still the weakest in close combat.

Then there was nothing more. Lorgar was almost knocked to the ground by Perturabo, but fortunately at this time, Perturabo was not very experienced in fighting and he gave his brother some water, which made Lorgar unable to Relive the tragic situation with the Crow King.

........................

The Blood of Steel, a battleship designed by Perturabo himself, is one of the most powerful battleships in the galaxy. With the combat power of a single ship, it can destroy a fleet or suppress a planet.

Even among the sister ships of the Glory Queen-class battleship, the Blood of Steel is considered huge, with a total length of 20 kilometers.

In addition to the extremely thick hull armor due to the combat needs of the Iron Warriors, the Iron Blood also has a very unique feature: there is not a single porthole on the surface of its hull, not even on the bridge. In this way - Perturabo, the primarch of the Iron Warriors Legion, believes that space warfare can be carried out by relying on sensors and tactical information display interfaces. Any attempt to directly observe the target visually is useless - ironically, it is It was because of this logic that he himself could not resist the temptation to witness the changes in the battle situation with his own eyes during the Battle of Farr. As a result, he could only wear armor and run to the carrier-based aircraft launch port that was already in a vacuum environment to observe the battle situation.

Perturabo stared at this Glory Queen-class battleship. He liked every decoration on it very much, and it would become the cornerstone of his expedition fleet.

The Iron Warriors Legion will become a legion specializing in sieges. Under Yang Cheng's order, the Fourth Legion was quickly thrown into a battle.

This attack was first commanded by Frix. Perturabo was not yet familiar with the Empire's various ordnance. He still needed to study the mainstream weapons and mortal auxiliary forces currently used by Space Marines.

"We want this Astra Militarum"

Perturabo pointed to the Krieg Death Corps, which was shelling and digging trenches in the distance.

The Iron Warriors also like to dig trenches, dig a giant long trench, then repair all kinds of messy weapons, and finally demolish the enemy's bunkers.

"For the Emperor!!!"

"Steel begets strength! Strength begets will! Will begets faith! Faith begets glory! Glory begets steel!"

The war cry of the Iron Warriors sounded in the enemy's bunker. With the cooperation of the Krieg artillery unit, several Space Marine squads broke out of the ground on devices equipped with drills. They appeared steadily in the enemy's fortress. middle.

"The enemy is coming in!"

The leading officer was hit by a bomb as soon as he finished speaking, and then the Iron Warriors began to gradually clear the enemy's firepower points in the fortress.

The Iron Warriors are very professional in sieges, especially in dealing with this kind of fortress. For them, these fortresses are not as good as those shitty yellow guys.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang..."

These Iron Warrior tactical squads advance steadily in the enemy's fortress. The weapons equipped by these alien soldiers can only threaten mortals. To the Space Marines, they can only be regarded as laser rust removal.

“Good, but not enough”

Perturabo is very satisfied with the performance of his descendants. This is enough for ordinary fortress space warriors, but in the future he will face the enemy of the fortress that transformed an entire planet. Facing this kind of enemy space warriors will also be difficult. It's not a panacea.

"Transfer part of Krieg's command, and I need enough cannon fodder."

Perturabo listed his requirements one after another, which should serve as the basis of his army.

"Father, what else do you need? Look at these things you studied..."

"Use it yourself or give it to other groups. This kind of thing is of no use in siege."

Honso developed a weapon similar to the devil's ovary, but the embarrassing thing is that the empire no longer needs this kind of cannon fodder. Its symbolic significance is greater than its actual combat significance.

Perturabo was also skeptical of what Honso had developed. In addition to being terrifyingly long, its combat effectiveness was only slightly higher than that of ordinary mortal soldiers. At most, it could only be deployed in some key street battles.

"I need to study the artillery unit. If Krieg and the others can be incorporated into our auxiliary army,"
