Chapter 101: 200
Gao Yi thought about what might happen next and quickly made a decision in his mind.
Going directly to Cadia is definitely not feasible. No matter how strong the ground troops are, when Abaddon drops the Blackstone Fortress, all the ground troops will be useless.
Gao Yi had to find a way to organize the other party in the void.
The force Chaos dispatched this time was the largest since the Heresy.
He must rely on the existing strength of the empire.
With the current population size and strength of his dynasty.
You don't know whether you will win or not, and your family fortune will most likely be wiped out.
After all, there is an endless army of demons behind the other side.
On paper, the Empire was not weaker than the Chaos in the Battle of Cadia, but the subsequent huge Warp Storm blocked the arrival of reinforcements and communications.
The harassment incidents in nearby star regions also made it difficult for the Empire's huge military forces to cope with them.
Gao Yi must make use of dozens of Space Marine chapters and hundreds of millions of mortal troops and fleets from the Empire.
But how to integrate these forces is a big problem. Maybe we can try to resurrect Guilliman first? With the influence of the Primarch, it shouldn't be a problem.
The other forces of the dynasty can also take advantage of the chaos to occupy some planets, kill a large number of chaotic forces to obtain psychic crystals, and then establish production bases on the spot to arm the nearby imperial forces.
The goal of fighting to support the war can be achieved, slowing down the speed of Chaos' offensive while also freeing up the Empire's original strength to fully invest in the war against Cadia.
The starting capital of Star Spirit almost emptied Gao Yi's pocket of crystals.
"Tell Damon to send the team's coordinates back to Agathos. The dynasty will soon send them support troops and the necessary supplies. Their mission is to establish a bridgehead for the dynasty!"
The huge military force that Agathos had armed and trained over the years began to be mobilized, and one Gorgon after another began to be loaded with supplies and troops.
However, the expansion of the current territory also requires a large number of troops to defend, so Gao Yi cannot devote all his strength.
Damon also received the order, and was thinking about how to take his first step.
Agrippina's military ministry contacted the rangers.
Agrippina's own fleet could no longer mobilize any forces, and the strength of Agrippina's fortress fleet could only defend a few important worlds to prevent them from completely falling.
The Empire also has no more forces to support the Agrippina Sector.
As for the Rangers, a star army with its own warships, the Military Affairs Department found it incredible and even thought it was against the laws of the Empire. However, after seeing that they belonged to a dynasty of Rogue Merchants, the Military Affairs Department chose not to delve into the reasons for the time being. Rogue Merchants do have enough autonomy.
Under normal circumstances, even the Rogue Traders' troops would inevitably be scrutinized by the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Inquisition, but now they really need a strong force to help resolve the chaos in the Agrippina sector.
"The Ranger Commander! Where is the Ranger Commander!"
The loud and unceremonious call rang in Damon's ears.
An officer from the Military Affairs Department shouted loudly.
However, when he saw the murderous Damon and the two Night Guards beside him walking towards him, the officer could not help but lower his voice.
What's with the aura of these guys? Are they so murderous?
Damon, who needed to look up, stood in front of the officer and looked down at him.
"I'm Damon, the Ranger's commander. What can I do for you?"
"Well, according to the request of the Imperial Military Affairs Department, the Agasos Rangers will immediately rush to the civilized world of Lorisa to assist the local governor in quelling the riot!"
"The Rangers will get the job done!"
After hearing that the rangers had accepted the mission, the officer did not want to stay in front of Damon any longer and immediately left the scene.
Damon was originally thinking of some excuse to get away from here, but now, the Rangers can leave with a legitimate reason.
As an important star zone entering the Agrippina star zone, Lorisa needs a strong team to recapture it. When the Rangers saw the paper report on the composition of the troops submitted by the Rangers themselves, they were immediately assigned by the Military Affairs Department to be the candidate for this mission.
However, when the Ranger fleet arrived at the galaxy where Lorisa was located and witnessed the situation facing the entire planet at that time, they were still shocked by the scene before them.
Lorisa is an imperial civilization world. Unlike the hive worlds, it is not filled with towering hive cities. Instead, it has huge city clusters scattered across the planet.
Over thousands of years, the entire world has developed naturally. It is more like the normal world in our cognition. It is not outstanding in any aspect, but it can be self-sufficient in industry and agriculture.
The plague of Nurgle is spreading across the planet, and the dead are resurrecting and attacking mortals. Faced with this plague, all they can do is purify all the infected with fire.
The transport plane flew over the surface of Lorisa, and Damon frowned as he looked at the scene in the occupied area.
The spread of the Nurgle plague over some cities has caused strange visions in some cities, with thick dark green fog vaguely covering the cities.
As the first interstellar human summoned by Gao Yi to this world, the first chaotic enemies he faced were the crew members infected with the plague.
Those fearless and even difficult to kill Nurgle zombies gave him a great shock when he first arrived in this world.
But the current scene on this planet makes the Nurgle plague that once occurred on the Golden Horn seem so ridiculous.
The number of crew members on the Golden Ram meant that the total number of Nurgle zombies was only tens of thousands, while the number of Nurgle zombies in the scene before them was in the tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.
The planetary defense force used a large number of defensive offensives and depth to block the zombies' attacks, and several cities on the planet have fallen.
Without exception, they were disintegrated from within.
Outside the surviving cities were refugee camps. Countless civilians fled to areas still under the control of the empire, but they also brought the plague with them.
It's not as deadly as before, but the disease still ravages their bodies, and the government here has physically isolated them from the most important areas.
They sent as many troops as possible to maintain order here, and built an Anglican church here to use faith to stabilize people's emotions that were on the verge of collapse.
The meager supplies barely sustained these people's lives.
Lorisa was well aware of the threat posed by these potential groups of people, but he needed this huge manpower, who could serve as workers or temporary soldiers.
The top leaders of the galaxy near Cadia still have sufficient understanding of chaos.
Abandoning these lives at random will only make the corruption and influence of Chaos worse.
But the entire planet has now entered a vicious cycle.
The transport ship landed at the landing site.
As soon as the hatch opened, officials from Lorisa came up excitedly.
"God-Emperor, I'm Franz, the official in charge of receiving Lorisa. We almost thought we were abandoned by the empire. If you don't come, we won't be able to hold on!"
Seeing the other person's expression of surviving a disaster, Damon continued to ask.
"Where is your governor? I need to know the situation from him!"
"The Governor-General is dead"
"Dead?"
"As for the Governor, he was killed in an attack while inspecting the outer areas not long after the chaos broke out.
There were no further appointments to the Ministry of the Interior, and no one was willing to take over the position of Governor at this time. Lorissa's departments were operating independently.
The astropaths have all gone crazy. We can't even send astropathic messages to the Empire, let alone receive them.
We suspect it is the group of unbelievers who are spreading heretical theories. They slander the Empire and dare to say that the Empire has distorted the will of the God-Emperor.
These guys even dared to attack the state church and kill the holy priests! "
Listening to the other party's words, Damon realized that Lorisa's situation was more complicated than he had imagined. It could be said that she was facing internal and external troubles.
"Clear the landing site, my troops need to land, and give me all the intelligence on the occupied area!"
"Sir, please follow me! I'll send someone to do it right away!"
