Chapter 227 219. Leon’s leader,
the unkind Lion, did not express what he thought was insignificant kindness to his brothers. That kind of tepid emotion was destined not to be suitable for the smoke-filled battlefield. The Lion was marked in this battle. "Command", then he will issue his orders with an unquestionable tone and a judgmental and suspicious look.
Even though Mortarion will be unhappy for a long time after this terrible first meeting, Leon Jonson will not waste too much energy on this matter. To him, it is just a legion that is good at frontal battlefield combat. Being placed on the escape path of Ran Dan's branch, he will delegate the command of this part to his knights. The lion's eyes should be focused on the more grand and brutal war forest, where everyone is bleeding, Sacrifice is more common than breathing.
The war continues, the stars are set in flames, the stars fall, and the sun dims. Multiple legions are thrown into this protracted battle. Ran Dan, who was severely damaged in the previous two battles, will eventually make a sad exit in this galaxy drama. .
But this does not mean that the battle is easy. With the First Army as the main force, the Second Army, the Sixth Army, and the Eleventh Army jointly participated in the battle in the main theater, but this battle was different from any previous battle of the Lions. During the battle, in addition to seriously facing the threat from Ran Dan's aliens, the sharp senses of smell of the lion and the wild wolf detected an unusual smell in the smell of blood.
That was not the aura exuding from the other side of the battlefield.
Compared with the Wolf King, the Lion King is more keen. The mysterious soldiers from the last legion mix into the battlefield, and the Lion has to be more cautious.
Each legion has its own unique imperial function, and the first legion, the Dark Angels, and the sixth legion, the Space Wolves, just hold the blades that decapitate inwards.
They are given the power of "supervision," "warning," and "extermination."
But Leon Johnson knows that compared to the wolf king who acts in accordance with orders, the lion prefers to take the initiative and be vigilant. He knows the secrets that other brothers do not know, and he sticks to the bottom line that other brothers are not even aware of, because Leon Jonson himself has an extremely strong and loyal character, and his father, the Emperor, also gave many gifts to the First Legion.
Some gifts that will make troubles and annoyances disappear easily.
The Dark Angels are even the only legion that can launch judgment and extermination on the Mechanicus forge world. Unlike other legions that more or less need to cooperate with the Mechanicus forge world, the Dark Angels have their own unique technology.
Except for the Empire, except for Terra, except for the Emperor, the Lion has the right to wipe out everything when necessary -
therefore, he has no reaction at all to Mortarion and his Fourteenth Legion. On Randan's complicated battlefield, Mortarion and the Death Guard are just lucky ones who can be seen through at a glance. They were recruited here only because of the needs of the empire. They do not need to shed fearless blood, nor do they need too much gaze from the lion.
So Leon Jonson simply assigned Mortarion the task of the Death Guard, and by the way, he had a brief meeting with Mortarion because of the shackles of being "the same original body".
If Mortarion has war wisdom, then he should understand Leon Jonson's behavior. The Lion can personally take the time to have a conversation with Mortarion while commanding Randan's main battlefield. Leon Jonson thinks this is already This is a very high level of respect and courtesy.
It's a pity that the Lion's "obvious" good intentions were obviously not accepted by Mortarion, who had "no war wisdom".
Perhaps it was due to Leon Jonson's initial aggression and his subsequent arrogant words that Mortarion frowned and drove away Hades many times when he tried to express condolences. However, although Mortarion Cursing in his mind all the time, he still commanded the Death Guard and moved forward according to the route given by Leon Jonson.
Although he was very unhappy, no, very unhappy, Mortarion also smelled something amiss from the Empire's large-scale mobilization of legions.
In the confrontation with the lion, Mortarion could see the undisguised vigilance of the primarch at that moment.
Of course Mortarion was familiar with this attitude, but he hid it very well. With the shadow of his hood, the covering of his breathing mask, and the dispersion of poisonous gas, no one would notice him.
It's not Perturabo's kind of disgust. Even Perturabo would not look at the original bodies of other legions with that kind of eyes. Things became clear. In addition to knowing the future Death Guard in advance, the First Legion at least We are also warning for a future where stars have fallen and civilization has become dusty.
As for the unusual content of the edict in this battle, and the information that was deliberately blocked, the Lord of Death had a vague premonition of the content that was different from ordinary battles.
The Primarch thought indifferently that he had not met most of his brothers yet, but he did not expect to do so.
So even if Mortarion was unhappy, he would honestly and carefully direct the Death Guard's advance route. The construction of Barbarus and Galaspar at least made Mortarion aware of the scarcity of the legion's resources. I don't want to waste my energy on something I don't understand.
The Death Guard fleet sails smoothly through the universe.
When following the route of the Lion, the astrological system near Mandeville Point in the Rust galaxy did not respond to the call of the Death Guard. Although the astrological systems in some small star fields did often fail, there was a forging world. The galaxy should not make such a stupid mistake.
The Rust galaxy is a small and remote star field, but its location happens to connect two large star fields. In the subspace, only Rust's channel remains stable, while in the physical universe, the Rust galaxy remains stable. The distance between the two closest star fields to Ste is obviously quite large, and it is difficult to successfully travel to the next star system simply by relying on physical navigation.
The special geographical location makes Rust become a gateway to the galaxy. Since this galaxy is usually located in a remote place on the border of the empire, it is also in a deserted state.
But now, Ran Dan's retreat has made this galaxy reappear on the strategists' table. Holding this place, there are several rich and busy imperial star systems behind Juste, and Juste cannot lose it.
According to the calculations of the First Army, Ran Dan would not have evacuated here originally. Even according to the worst-case scenario calculation, Ran Dan would not have been able to evacuate here. However, due to the planetary governors in the world behind Rust, He kept shouting for help, and the Death Guard was sent.
For these planetary governors, it was always right to cry out and seek help, and indeed, the Death Guard came to save their lives.
Exam, sent.
Pray to the teacher online for mercy.
No matter how hard I try, if I don't wait tonight, the card will be gone in one go.
