Victory Laurel.
This is Calgar's flagship.
It accompanied him in battles for many years and took part in many expeditions.
The light inside the ship is soft and bright, providing stable lighting for many senior crew members.
The data boards, stacked up and placed stably, flashed a vast amount of information at high speed.
Buzzing, the holographic projection scene supported by many wire frames emits a soft white light, reflecting the arch structure on the top of the bridge, as if immersed in the rippling light of the seabed.
Calgar sat on the throne in the strategy room, facing numerous screens, examining the information from various fleets with a serious look.
The soft white light illuminated the edge of his armor and reflected on the golden double-headed eagle emblem in the center of the breastplate.
Rows of combat data rushed across the screen in front of him.
A large number of images show information about the latest renegade galaxies.
Out of resistance to the Primarch's orders to reform.
A rebellion broke out in a prosperous industrial system called Evans.
They demanded that the Primarch immediately withdraw his reform order, otherwise they would refuse to recognize his status as the supreme ruler of the Empire.
The astrologer communications department of the Victory Laurel even captured a piece of news sent by the other side to all parts of the galaxy.
The traitors of the Evans System declared it publicly.
Guilliman is the greatest traitor to the Empire in ten thousand years, and is no less treacherous than Horus.
He was just an abomination ripped from a broken history, a warlord through and through, full of ambition, seeking to recreate the Horus Heresy.
Everything Guilliman did was designed to undermine his father's authority.
Make the necessary preparations to ascend the throne of Terra.
He had no intention of saving the human world at all.
The Indomitable Crusade was a scam, a complete and utter scam.
Guilliman deceived the Imperium.
The traitors of the Evans System called on all worlds of the Imperium to wake up and unite against any traitor who endangers the Emperor's rule.
Resolutely resist all actions of Guilliman.
He also demanded that Guilliman's title of regent of the Empire be abolished and that he be treated as a traitor to humanity.
Karl suppressed his anger and patiently read the other party's oath.
He vowed to kill these traitors.
No one can ever humiliate his genetic father.
At the end, Evans's rebels also played a video of a hanging.
"Look at these people, they are all traitors, traitors who support Guilliman in usurping the throne of the Emperor."
"Look at their disgusting appearance, they should all be killed, all of them," a man shouted at the camera.
With crazy shouts, the loyalists were pulled up suddenly, their legs struggling weakly, and they were hanged alive in front of the camera.
In order to spread the word that Guilliman was a traitor, these traitors publicly executed those seekers and idealists who were willing to follow Guilliman.
Trying to shape the whole world into the disgusting shape they need.
Karga suppressed his anger and tried to keep himself calm.
Getting angry will only give the enemy a weakness.
It is best to be rational, stay rational, and then take revenge.
"Have they all rebelled?" Calgar looked at the Astropath and asked.
"Yes, my lord. They killed those loyalists and seized the Astronomican. According to the latest information, they received help from an extraordinary army. If I am not mistaken, this extraordinary army is likely to be the Alpha Legion that rebelled against the Empire."
The Astrotalker said.
Calgar frowned, as he himself could not have imagined that such an extremely simple rebellion would involve those Chaos traitors.
The Alpha Legion was the last of the twenty original Legions to be formed, and was led by their Primarch Alpharius.
It is said that the Primarchs of the Alpha Legion were twins.
One Primarch was Alpharius.
The other Primarch was Omega.
According to Imperial history, Alpharius was killed by Dorn, while Omega was killed by Guilliman.
After the Heresy, Imperial forces in different regions reported that they had witnessed members of the Alpha Legion claiming to be Alpharius on multiple occasions.
Every time, the Assassin's Court would send people to hunt down these so-called Alpharius.
The Assassins' Court mostly failed, but they also killed several Alpharius.
Unfortunately, it was later discovered that those hunted were not the real Alpharius.
However, it also created a mystery.
No one is sure whether Alpharius is truly dead.
The Legion was renowned for its discipline and organization during the Great Crusade, but also for its incredible cunning.
They are extremely skilled at misleading their enemies, creating confusion, on-the-spot betrayal and all kinds of deception.
During the Horus Heresy, Alpharius stole the Solar System's defense blueprints for him and sabotaged the reconstruction of the Duck Guard, leaving Corax with no way to restore the Duck Guard's forces.
The Alpha Legion also tempted people on various worlds to rebel against the Emperor's rule.
This ultimately led to a huge wave of rebellion.
After the Horus Heresy, the Alpha Legion continued to operate.
Rather than joining Chaos, most Alphas fled to the eastern galactic regions, operating outside the Emperor's Astronomican.
Sometimes they would incite those planets to rebel against the Empire.
It is said that they are behind many rebellions.
Even in the Second Terra incident, there were rumors that they and the Fallen Angels were involved.
It took the Terra Senate a long time, and with the help of the Dark Angels, it finally destroyed the Second Terra.
Calgar had come face to face with these damned traitors several times.
Every one of them is a cunning brute.
More cunning than a fox, more vicious than a snake.
As long as there is a chance, we must never let them go easily.
"Let's go to Planet Evans. We have to get rid of them as soon as possible," said Calgar.
"Understood, sir." said the captain of the Victory Laurel.
... ... ... ... ...
A week later.
With the help of subspace navigation, the fleet led by Calgar quickly entered the Evans galaxy.
All ships of the expeditionary fleet have been optimized and upgraded.
Enhanced detection capability and detection range.
As soon as I entered the real universe, I found the enemy.
A large number of deep space mine traps were also discovered, placed in very vicious positions, all inside micro-meteorites.
If the imperial ships had not been upgraded, they would have been ambushed as soon as they came out.
Maybe he was considering the insufficiency of his own Void Force.
The mutineers placed their only ship in low-Earth orbit around the planet Evans, hoping to rely on the planet to last as long as possible.
There are not many planets in the Evans galaxy, only two.
One is a gaseous Jupiter.
One is an Earth-like planet, namely Planet Evans.
In order to resist the Imperial fleet, the rebels also built many space weapon stations, combat satellites, etc.
Try to stop the Imperial fleet and buy yourself some time.
As long as they resist long enough, they believe that the people of other planets will also rise up in resistance, and the Indomitable Expedition Fleet will eventually compromise.
The only pity is that they miscalculated.
The Indomitable Crusade's strength is enough to compete with the Necrons' fleet.
The Tyranids and Orcs were beaten so badly that they had no idea what to do.
A fleet gathered from just one galaxy can be easily crushed.
What's more, one-third of the ships are civilian ships.
It was just a simple modification and used as a combat barge.
The battle didn't last long.
As the enemy's simple flagship was blown up by a single shot.
The void war came to an end.
A large number of rebel ships chose to surrender.
The Imperial fleet approached the planet Evans' low-Earth orbit.
Under the detection of auspicious instruments and radar.
Calgar discovered that Evans' rebels were ready.
Every city in Evans is armed to the teeth.
They even had anti-aircraft artillery arrays.
But there is nothing strange about this.
Evans is an industrial world.
It survives by supplying other worlds with industrial products.
As long as there are suitable drawings, it is possible to quickly switch from a civilian production line to a military production line.
But Karga would show the traitors how weak their defenses were and how little resistance they had shown.
Traitors must pay the heaviest price for this, only in this way can they atone for their crime of slandering the Primarch.
HMS Victory, bridge.
Calgar sat on the throne, and many expeditionary commanders gathered around him to start a war meeting against Evans.
Following the intelligence chief's introduction, the hologram focused on the surface of the planet Evans.
A southern city is clearly shown.
It is located in a vast wilderness at the foot of a series of majestic mountains.
It has rolling hills that look like mountains, with factories spewing out black smoke.
The whole world has become desertified. A large amount of toxic substances have accumulated in the wasteland, causing the plants in the wasteland to become extinct.
Those that managed to survive were covered with poisonous spines and became strangely shaped.
"Pral, this is the capital city of Evans, and also the location of their command post." The intelligence director introduced to everyone, "According to the intelligence obtained from the previous void war, the Alpha Legion is very likely staying on the planet Evans."
"Just now, the Mechanicus reported that they found a warship from the Great Crusade era among the wreckage of the enemy's ships. Such warships have basically become old and retired in the Empire. They can only be seen in the hands of traitors. There is a Hydra emblem on it, and this emblem is the emblem of the former rebellious Alpha Legion."
As the intelligence chief spoke, several projections appeared simultaneously in front of many commanders.
Looking at these projections, the commanders' expressions subconsciously became solemn.
"No matter who they are, our mission is to defeat them." Calgar said, "In view of the strategic purpose of the Primarch, our mission is to clean up the traitorous upper class and appease the ignorant lower class. To this end, I will form a spearhead force to capture the capital city of Praal. Once we control this city, Evans will be within our grasp. In order to demonstrate the power of the expeditionary fleet, we will use teleportation technology to teleport directly to the surface this time, catching them off guard and letting them know that betraying the Empire will not end well."
"Why don't we bomb them directly? Bomb Praal directly from low-Earth orbit, that would be faster," said a military commander.
Kaliga shook his head. "There are a large number of innocent people in Prair. They are just being coerced. We need to be ruthless and kind enough. As long as the innocent people are willing to lay down their weapons, we must give them a chance to change their ways."
"And if we only attack from a distance, there will always be some pest dogs that survive. Since we want to solve this problem once and for all, we must do it ourselves. Use a decisive surprise attack to completely destroy them."
The projection magnified Prairie, revealing it as a magnificent industrial city.
Clearly showing a variety of different styles of buildings.
From the majestic mansions and churches to the endless civilian residences.
There are also industrial buildings stacked up like continuous mountains.
Ingeniously laid out streets weave through this multi-layered city.
Kalga assigned tasks to various military commanders.
Let them attack various strategic targets, quickly paralyze Prall's counterattack force, and make it impossible for the rebels to escape.
At the end, the projection changes focus to reveal another magnificent arcade and tower.
Many maze-like ancillary buildings surround a tallest and most magnificent dome building, which serves as the glorious crown of the city, like a jeweled pine needle inlaid in the chaotic city of Prair.
The building is extremely magnificent. It is the center of the city of Prale, the most important administrative center of Evans and the location of the Star Language Court.
"This palace is our most important target. The Alpha Legion is likely to appear here. I will personally destroy this palace. I will use a devastating blow to let the Alpha Legion know that they have done something very stupid."
Karga said firmly.
He wants to make those traitors of Alpha pay the price.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..
Ground combat began soon.
Calgar tried to use new teleportation technology and researched new rapid strike tactics.
As dusk gradually approached, the sky was stained with blood-red clouds.
Accompanied by flashes of light, batches of Imperial troops emerged from the flashes, as the Prair defenders were caught off guard and stunned.
The imperial troops rumbled forward, approaching the passes throughout the city.
The defenders of Prair finally reacted and quickly sounded the alarm.
The anti-aircraft artillery quickly turned its muzzle towards the ground and bombarded it.
Just as the guns were turned, batches of Imperial fighter planes roared down from the sky, pouring out ammunition.
The capital city of Pula was instantly engulfed in flames.
A simple order of appearance rendered the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower useless without any effect.
Realizing the results of the new tactics, Calgar couldn't help but smile.
With the awakening of the Primarch, the technological strength of the Imperial Fleet has grown.
In the past, the Empire would never have been able to transport such a large number of troops.
But now it is transmitted in batches.
Groups of Leman Russ super-heavy tanks appeared on the battlefield with flashes of light.
There are also Chimera troop carriers, Knight Titans, and so on.
Before the enemy could react, large numbers of combat engines rolled over.
In just a few moments, all parts of Praal were engulfed in war.
There was gunfire and bullets everywhere.
The overwhelming bombs, lasers, and artillery shells hit the defenders' offensive like a hailstorm.
The Empire's offensive came like a flood, and the defenders of Prall were simply unable to resist.
At the forefront of the flood was Calgar and his hand-picked spearhead troops.
Calgar, wearing azure power armor, rushed into the outer square first.
Wherever they passed, violent explosions occurred, spewing out scattered fireballs.
Every soldier's helmet was filled with short, concise messages from communications that never stopped. The poor quality of the signal transmission made their voices even more hoarse.
Karga and others quickly formed a spearhead that pierced the rebels' throats.
All they need to do is quickly capture the palace and kill the rebel leader, and the enemy will twitch toward destruction.
The defenders of Prair are well-equipped, using their industrial capabilities to ensure that every soldier is armed to the teeth.
At the same time, the soldiers of the traitor Alpha Legion were effectively trained.
Each fortification was carefully selected to ensure that the attackers would be caught off guard and would suffer heavy casualties if they were not careful.
A large number of mines and button bombs were placed on both sides of the road.
Whenever an imperial convoy passed by, it would explode immediately, with extreme viciousness.
The further Calgar advanced, the more furious he became.
He would never let those damned traitors go.
Every traitor to the Alpha Legion deserves death.
The warriors accompanied Calgar in their attack on the administrative buildings in Pural.
Along the way, we saw a large number of soldiers armed with energy weapons and wearing solid armor standing ready for battle in various fortifications.
We also saw the tracked artillery vehicles and automatic weapons around the enemy, as well as the weapon platforms equipped with four to eight automatic cannons, moving slowly towards the front line on pulsating hydraulic legs.
They are neither orcs nor zerg.
Rather, they are humans armed with the technology of the Empire.
This is a civil war between civilized societies.
The enemy firmly guarded the road leading to the administrative district.
As soon as the imperial troops appeared, they unleashed a crazy barrage of fire.
As the sky grew darker, Calgar and the others could see the scorching flames flickering in the air.
Automatic machine guns fired wildly at the imperial troops.
The defenders were determined to stop them all here and prevent them from advancing an inch.
It's a pity that they are destined to fail.
Calgar led his personal guard and a group of carefully selected veterans, running forward under the cover of the scattered smoke and violent explosions.
Their steel boots made a crisp sound as they rolled over the stone slabs beneath their feet.
Seeing a cannon pouring shells towards them, Karga raised his gloves and fired a shot in that direction, followed by a loud explosion.
The shell that had just been fired was hit by the explosive bomb fired by Calga and exploded directly.
Dozens of defenders were knocked down by the impact, and several enemies flew directly into the sky and landed on the battlefield like broken sacks.
"Charge forward." shouted a glorious veteran.
A wild hail of bullets gnawed at their armor.
Calgar could feel the impact of enemy fire on his power armor.
Seeing the attack launched by the Emperor's Angels, the defenders no longer had the courage to fight and fled in all directions.
Karga raised his gloves and bullets rained down.
The impact of the bomb was transmitted to his body through the armor, giving him a strange feeling.
Those that were hit collapsed like swollen blisters.
Breaking like overripe fruit.
Blood mist gushed out from every shattered corpse.
“For Guilliman,” Kalgar shouted.
Other veterans also shouted.
They quickly broke through the enemy's fire blockade.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the defenders fled frantically, without any courage left.
Surrounded by many veterans, Calgar stepped into the palace, stepping on the corpses of the enemy soldiers lying on the ground.
The plaster walls inside the palace had already cracked in the artillery fire.
It fell to the ground like dry sand.
The air was filled with smoke.
Fortunately, Calgar still received the Primaris upgrade and activated Guilliman's greatest gift, officially embarking on the path to becoming a demigod.
The smoke did not block his vision.
The enemy troops along the way could no longer stop them and fled in a panic or surrendered, dropping their guns.
Karga and others walked into the deepest part of the palace.
It was a magnificent palace, with the ruler's throne placed in the most conspicuous position, which could be seen as soon as the door was opened.
But the person sitting on it is not a ruler who is blinded by greed.
Instead, he was an Alpha warrior wearing a power armor mixed with sea blue, silver and emerald green.
The other party did not take off his helmet.
Just sitting on the throne that belongs to the ruler, watching Calgar and others rush in.
"Who are you?" Karga asked.
"I am Alpharius." The Alpha warrior said in a low voice.
