Chapter 562 For the Marshal
After returning from the trading town of the Tau tribe, Vito went directly to the original headquarters of the Valhalla Army Group. There were many people gathered here, including the heads of various surviving regiments, or the acting regiment leaders.
The communication has been restored, and the news that the entire headquarters has been annihilated has already spread to the entire group army, as well as to other troops who may have also been involved in the communication network of the Star Border Army. Many people do not believe this news, thinking that it is a mistake. Decided to come in person to see if the news was reliable.
Then, they saw the scene in front of them. The tall buildings of the former headquarters had long been destroyed, and steel clusters grew among the ruins. They were the command equipment, communication radars and antennas that were originally in the headquarters.
Now Vito knows why the communication channel has been disconnected for a while. It seems that the first target of the Tau air force is here. The star corps are here.
"You want us to listen to you?! Joke, you're only a lieutenant colonel!" The man with the rank of colonel on his shoulder protested loudly, arguing loudly with the person in front of him, and similar situations were everywhere around them.
"We are the navy, not you mudlegs! You graduated from that military academy? That shabby hive gave you these few stars when it was drafted."
"You navy sissy, you bastard! I fought Chaos, have you seen the scar on my arm? He proves everything better than the broken medals on your chest!"
In front of the ruins of the building, the commanders of the various legion sections, the navy, the army, and the chaotic local PDF units, were arguing about who should be in command and who should be the new commander.
It seems that the Tau tribe did this on purpose. They know that all the senior officers are at the headquarters. Once this place is destroyed, the remaining people of the remaining Star Realm Legion will be officers of the same rank, and some are even higher. They are temporarily replaced by lower-ranking officers. They belong to each other, and they will not obey each other.
Even during the quarrel, he didn't notice Vito's arrival. He got out of the car, and Loken and Sirksos jumped out of the car, guarding him with bolt guns, and passed through the arguing conductors. between officials.
They all stopped, watching as Vito, escorted by two Space Marines, passed through them.
Loken and Serksos guarded in front, towering magnificently in front of Vito, the commanders who were arguing all looked at him, Kastin and Kane were also here, they looked at Vito on the ruins among the crowd support.
He stood there, overlooking the crowd below, and after a long silence, he spoke, "Report the situation."
"You are not our commander at all, judge, you are not our people, you cannot lead us." Someone protested, but suddenly his eyes widened, and he and the people around him looked at the golden figure on the ruins .
The golden disk behind Vito's head flickered. Standing on top of the ruins, he looked like the rising sun. The dazzling golden light pierced through the surrounding clouds and shone on everyone below.
He was silent, but he seemed to have said everything, and the acting commander who refuted him immediately stood at attention, "Lieutenant Colonel Johansen, the acting commander of the 3rd Regiment of the Mordian Iron Guard, our regiment suffered heavy casualties from the bombing, but the establishment is still in existence." , armored units await instructions."
"The 887th Cadia Regiment is waiting for instructions!" Another person stepped forward and shouted.
"Ventrelia Ghost Regiment, the whole regiment of rangers is on standby!" Another person, and then more people, many numbers came to mind one after another under the ruins, and Vito listened silently.
Soon, he had a preliminary impression of the battle situation in his mind. There were still those pieces on the chessboard. Listening to their words, he gradually understood.
"My lord, the naval aviation wing has almost been wiped out, and we only have less than ten fighter planes left." Said a member of the navy, he hesitated, "Also, we still have no news about the naval fleet, but Titanium."
"And my lord, all the radar systems have detected a large number of signals after restarting, and they are here." Someone reported that it was an officer of the radar station, and his rank was not high.
"The Tau control the sky, my lord, we are on the ground like hares." The navy man said again, and the surrounding commanders all whispered, and many people looked at the sky, but soon Loken's fierce He stomped his feet and fell silent.
Vito looked at them, his face was shrouded in golden light, streamers shot out from his eyes, and flowed around like water. He looked around the commanders below, as if examining their souls.
No one was talking, even the sound of breathing was much quieter, the world seemed to be quiet, the sky and the earth no longer existed, only the golden light was still shining.
"We will fight on."
The man in the light spoke slowly, his voice was soft but powerful, like a drum beating, "We will fight on the front line, we will fight in the rear, we will fight on the streets of the city, we will fight on the fields, Fight in the living room, bedroom, and kitchen of the house."
He said, the voice rising with the halo, from the light, as if speaking in the hearts of men, "We will fight on the shore, we will fight on the high ground, we will fight on the ground, we will fight in the sky, and we will fight on." , until the dawn rises, and the comrades-in-arms brothers come in the golden light of the emperor, until, the victory comes."
"We will not surrender." He said, Loken raised his bolter in front of him and echoed, followed by Sirksos, their voices echoed over the empty ruins, until someone followed, and then Another one, within one.
"We will never surrender! For the Emperor, for the Empire!"
Kastin looked at a commander beside her who was depressed before, but now raised her arms and shouted. Everyone around her shouted in unison. They raised their arms and waved them in the air. The soldiers under them also raised their palms. Hold tight in the air.
The golden light shone on their faces from the ruins. In an instant, courage rose again in their chests. Kastin looked longingly at the figure on the ruins. He stood in the golden sun on the ruins. Know who he is now.
"Fight for the Supreme Marshal and the Empire!" Kastin raised his military cap and shouted, the Imperial Skyhawk logo shone in the golden light, and Kane beside him also raised his political commissar hat.
Soon, everyone under the ruins raised their military caps high, and their soldiers stood around, with the emperor, the empire, and the sky eagle symbolizing the Astral Army branded in their hands high up.
"For the Supreme Commander, for the Empire!"
They shouted in unison, and on the ruins, the golden figure looked towards the sky, and pressed the handle of the gun on his waist.
"Here they come."
