Chapter 45 43. Undercurrent
Endurance, Space Marine personal quarters.

just now.
.
In the dark room, glowing red lights flickered, and the clock on the other side of the door jumped to "3:48".

Hades was lying on the bed, but did not fall asleep, still recalling the scene just now in his mind.

The scythe brought by the Custodian and the Sister of Silence
What Hades can be sure of is that the sickle is definitely related to the "untouchables".

My own black domain flowed into the scythe so easily
This is estimated to be a weapon specially made for the untouchables?

The huge and heavy scythe, even Hades, who is considered a big man among the space fighters, would take a little effort to chop with it.

Not to mention the Sisters of Silence. Although they are also top fighters, this giant scythe is obviously not something that ordinary people can use.

As for the encounter with the Silent Nun just now, Hades was also a little confused. His own black field did not seem to be something like the "Silent Field" they created.

But if it is not the untouchables, Hades' constitution, how to explain it.
However, the emperor had already given Hades a sickle that was clearly aimed at his physique, obviously knowing Hades' physique.

So I guess I'm an uncontactable variant!

That's right!That's it!
Hades, who couldn't think of a reasonable explanation at all, was in the process of giving up on himself——

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore
And the giant scythe bestowed by the emperor actually gave Hades a layer of insurance in his heart, letting Hades know that he was not dangerous, nor was he messed with by Chaos.

He can use his own black domain without worrying about the machinations of Chaos.

As for the sickle, Hades thought that although his black domain could not break through his body surface at present, with the help of this sickle, he could extend his black domain, and also achieve the effect of suppressing psykers or subspace.

In fact, when he just realized that his black domain could not break through the body surface, Hades had a strange scene of expanding the black domain to the body surface, and then hugging the opposite psyker in hand-to-hand combat to suppress the psychic energy. .

Too weird
Hades felt goosebumps.

It was four o'clock, and the lights in the house turned on naturally. Hades put aside his thoughts just now, got up and put on his daily combat uniform, and prepared to start the first day of training.

Although he hadn't slept all night, the transformed body was not sleepy at all, but full of energy.

Hades went out, and a man in mk2 power armor was standing at his door.

The white-green power armor, the supplementary ceramic powder strips are intertwined on the armor, although it has been integrated into the armor, but occasionally it flashes a different luster than the overall armor as it moves.

The veteran standing in front of Hades was obviously a head taller than the other people passing them in the corridor, but still slightly shorter than Hades.

"Follow me, I'll take you to give armor."

The old soldier's voice came out from the helmet, and Hades was taken aback, and found that the translator in the helmet had converted the other party's language into Babarus.

After all, the veteran took Hades and began to follow the flow of people.

Alas. Haven't told me your name yet?
Hades closely followed the veteran's pace. He looked around and found that the floor he was on was full of power armor similar to the veteran.

In other words, Hades is a recruit on this floor? !

what is the problem?

Hades thought silently.

Endurance, Space Marine armor room.

just now.
.
The originally bright armor room was now as dark as night, only relying on the star candles lit by the machine servants to illuminate the hazy room.

The machine servants were busy shuttling through the room, surrounding a low circular platform in the center of the room with candles.

After a while, the recruit will come to give his armor.

In the darkest part of the room, Captain Jia Luo of the Seventh Company was wearing power armor, motionless.

Hope the recruits he picks don't disappoint him.

The Twilight Raiders who hadn't recovered the original body at the beginning will be deliberately reduced in strength until the return of the original body in the middle and late stages of the Great Crusade.

When Mortarion took over the Raiders of Dusk, there were more than 7 Raiders of Dusk in total.

The transformation of Barbarus recruits is also in full swing. With the gene seeds saved before, a total of 3 Barbarus recruits have been successfully transformed.

If you just look at the number of people, then there are about two veterans and one recruit per company.

But this is not the case. Aside from special fighters such as fearless, technical sergeants, think tanks, and pharmacists who cannot bring recruits, the number of recruits each company is willing to accept is also very different.

After Mortarion's reorganization, the Death Guard currently has seven companies, and each company is composed of several brigades with 700 people in each brigade, and a brigade is divided into seven squadrons.

The number of people in each Dalian is also very different, and it is not simply that 7 people are evenly divided into these companies.

The first company led by Barasin had a large number of people, reaching more than 2 people.

The second company has a smaller number of people, only more than [-] people.

And the next few companies have different numbers.

But the seventh combat company led by Jia Luo was the company with the smallest number of people.

There are only two brigades with more than [-] people.

Mortarion delegated all authority to Barathin when assigning training companies of recruits.

The recruits who have been trained will not serve directly in the company. After passing the recruiting period, they will have the right to re-select the company they belong to.

Although there is a high probability that the recruits will stay in the training company.

And Mortarion's move was precisely to see the attitudes of the companies.

The company commanders are also well aware of this.

The commander of the first company, Balasin, first recruited [-] recruits, and the second company only needed [-] recruits.

After this,
The third company has [-] people.

The fourth company has [-] people.

The fifth company has [-] members.

Sixth company with [-] names.

When the conscription list was handed over to Jia Luo, the recruits had already been allocated.

Of course Jia Luo knew the kindness of his comrades.

The Seventh Company was originally the most special branch of the Dusk Raiders. Only the veterans who had experienced hundreds of battles and climbed out of the dead pile countless times, and who were the most loyal to the Emperor, would be approved by the original company to enter the Seventh Company.

Therefore, some veterans of the seventh company reacted more intensely to the return of the original body, and Galo had received more than one death mission application.

In the eyes of the other company commanders, it was impossible for such a company to accept new recruits. Therefore, like a robbery, they divided up the number of recruits in advance, and then smiled apologetically at Jia Luo.

But Gallo was not what they imagined, disgusted by the return of the Primarch.

He is the Emperor's sword, and if the Primarch can use his power to the fullest, then Galo will offer his loyalty to the Primarch.

They are all fighting for the emperor, they should not have other distractions.

For the Emperor.

Jia Luo recited silently again subconsciously.

For the sake of the Emperor, he needs to lead the Seventh Company to exert its greatest effectiveness after the return of the Primarch.

If recruits who are not strong in combat strength and do not respect veterans are rashly introduced, the Seventh Company will definitely feel dissatisfied, but if no recruits enter, subsequent conscription will be difficult, and rootless trees are not a long-term solution.

During the recruit transformation operation, Jia Luo had been tracking the record of each recruit with good stats on Babarus.

"The seventh company, two."

Galo spoke.

The other company commanders looked at Jia Luo in surprise.

When Barasin reported to Mortarion the number of recruits in each company, Mortarion, who was reconstructing and analyzing the war records, seemed to listen rather carelessly.

The number of recruits in each company was about the same as he thought.

until--

"The seventh company, two."

Mortarion raised an eyebrow.

Small information:
The strength of the Death Guard in the early stage of the Horus Rebellion should be around 9.5 million, which is considered a relatively small army. (This is also related to their old war of attrition)

Then in the later stage of the Great Crusade, the Legion that has not yet found the Primarch will properly reduce its troops while retaining the gene seed.

So I estimated that at present, it is about 7w to stick to the veterans, and then the recruits burst into a soldier, adding about 3w, and an average of two veterans leads a recruit.

But there are fighters like Dreadnought, Company Commander, Technical Sergeant, Pharmacist, and Think Tank who cannot bring newcomers. In fact, one recruit is less than two veterans.

And I privately assume that the number of Barbarus descendants assigned to each company is different. In fact, this is also the case in the original book. (It's okay, you can reconnect later)
Before the death guard rebellion, the first company had the most Babarus, and the second, fifth, and seventh companies had the least Babarus.

Among them, the Seventh Company has basically no Babarus descendants, and the battle company is full of the fiercest Tyra ruthless people, which is also a relatively xenophobic group.

The structural framework of the Death Guard is
Legion - Company - Brigade - Squadron - Squad.

(I really couldn't find the structural framework of the Death Guard before the Horus Rebellion, so I pushed back the framework of the Plague Company after the Death Guard voted n.)
Other legions are legion-station regiment-battalion-company-platoon-squad.

Mortarion directly cut off the upper two levels, and set the full number of each company at 7, but this number has never been reached.

 I'm sorry, but I'm going to start taking my liberties with regards to the exact size of the Death Guard company.

  I'm not good at math, let's have fun.

  The number of death guards has always been small. In comparison, the Ultramarines and Word Bearers in the same period both had more than 20w, and the number of death guards was 9.5w.

  (There is no way, the old battle of wasting meat, and the recruitment of planets is not very effective.)
  Then I will start adding original legion characters, sorry.

  Happy reading (_)
