Warhammer: Opening is a Crisis of Doom
Chapter 21 Airborne Combat
On the drop deck of the Glory of Macragge.
A hundred Space Marines waited for the order to drop, surrounded by the hum of machinery.
The battle to clear the plague fleet is still going on.
From time to time, you can see gorgeous beams of light flashing across the cold, quiet space, very bright.
On the battlefield, the scenes of some plague ships disintegrating in the flames and collapsing silently are also very shocking.
The flagship was destroyed, and the combat effectiveness of the plague fleet also plummeted, being slaughtered and harvested by the imperial fleet.
Other warships are still hunting down plague ships that try to fight or flee, adding to their glorious record.
The Glory of Macragge gave up this great opportunity to gain glory.
Guilliman cared more about what happened on the surface than about the glory of nothingness.
Those plague warriors must be planning some terrible and evil ritual again.
There is absolutely no harm in stopping them as soon as possible.
These one hundred Space Marines hail from two different Chapters, forming a unique spearhead force.
Guilliman tried to mix different Chapters to fight together, so that they were no longer the old model of independent and independent wolf of Chapters.
He intends to adopt a brand-new system. During guerrilla warfare, these regiments can fight independently, and when they gather together, they can fight in a large-scale and organized manner like in the period of the Great Expedition.
In that case, he can invest tens of thousands of perfectly coordinated interstellar fighters at one time in certain large-scale battles, and destroy all enemies. It is also possible to let the battle groups fight independently on a specific battlefield to improve efficiency.
Fifty of the one hundred Space Marines were from the Ultramarines Chapter, and they wore the Ultramarines' unique dark blue armor, and even the veterans of the Ultramarines in the front row all wore Terminator armor.
The other fifty were from the Aurora Chapter, a sub-order of the Ultramarines whose armor was painted gray with blue flecks.
This chapter is not as wealthy as the Ultramarines, only two or three veterans wear Terminator armor, and the rest are standard armor.
On the deck, hundreds of technical experts and machine slaves were busy back and forth, making preparations for the landing operations of the space fighters.
Space Marines in Terminator armor are undergoing self-tests with the help of the Mechanic-Priest to ensure that the armor is in good working order, ensuring that their terrifying combat effectiveness will not be greatly compromised by poor maintenance.
Space Marines in standard power armor are equipped with tall assault shields, assisted by armed servitors.
Standard power armor lacks the sheer thickness of the Terminator's armor, and the bulky assault shields will enhance their survivability in close quarters combat in the coming air raids.
Accompanied by the rumbling sound, the elevator raised the munitions stored on the bottom floor to the deck.
The chapter's servants in their smart uniforms, aided by mechanical thralls, distributed those ammunition to each warrior.
Meanwhile, all Space Marines conduct a final pre-battle inspection of their armor and weapons, as well as those of their comrades.
The chaplains of the Chapter strode the ranks, listening to the oaths of the warriors, affixing the oaths to their armor with wax.
With a hissing sound, the seal was stamped on the sealing wax cover with the holy hot iron seal.
Thanks to years of training, every member, whether warrior or servant, is working perfectly and efficiently.
"The Glory of Macragge has entered the orbit of the planet, and the airborne operation will begin in ten minutes."
The broadcast was swallowed up by the noise and clamor of people's ongoing preparations, but it was not repeated.
The hearing of the space marines has been strengthened, and they have all heard this order clearly.
Immediately, there was a deafening horn sound on the deck.
All the space warriors and servants stopped what they were doing, stood at attention and saluted, looking at the direction of the arch with burning eyes.
In their expectant eyes, a majestic giant wearing azure armor of destiny strode forward amidst the sound of horns, followed by the Glory Guard.
The man who came was the Regent of the Empire, the Lord of Ultramar, the father of the great Ultramarine Gene, and the Emperor's thirteenth son-Guilliman.
Guilliman wears the gauntlet of the Dominant Hand on his left hand, and the silent Emperor's Sword around his waist.
The strength and will revealed in every gesture made mortals hold their breath.
"Are you ready?" Guilliman looked at the many space fighters and made a deep voice.
"My lord, everything is ready." The first company commander of the Aurora star war group said loudly.
"Waiting for your dispatch at any time, my lord." Said Sicarius, the second company commander of the Ultramarines Chapter.
The other Space Marines all stood up straight, looking at Guilliman with awe and admiration.
Admiration shone like a light in their faces, and they were ready to die for this great man.
"Very good." Guilliman stared at all the space fighters firmly, "It's time for those traitors to see what happens when they rebel against the Empire and humanity. The Empire must win."
"Must win."
"Must win."
The space warrior roared, his loud voice drowning out all the noise.
A part of the interstellar fighters including Sicarius was loaded into the airborne capsule, and was thrown to the planet Sara by the ejection device, turning into a stream of fire and descending on the surface.
This is the most common airborne method used by space fighters. It is fast, and when it lands, it can also use the violent impact brought by the high-altitude fall to bring a wave of bombardment to the opponent, causing first-hand damage
Guilliman and another group of fighters took the Thunderhawk transport plane and carried out the landing operation.
The Primarch and the Terminator are too large to fit in the airborne capsule, so they can only be transported by heavy air vehicles.
Star Sara was already surrounded by miserable green plague gas, and the ejected airdrop pods rushed into the tumbling plague cloud like cannonballs.
"Forty seconds, get ready for battle." Sicarius yelled, and the airborne capsule was rapidly cutting into the atmosphere of Star Sara.
The high-speed fall brought an extremely strong and sharp airflow sound, and even the thick bulkheads of the airborne cabin could not completely isolate this harsh sound.
The other fighters did not respond, they all remained silent, always keeping themselves in the best state of preparation.
As the atmosphere became denser, the rocket propellers at the bottom of the airborne cabin also started to activate, releasing a powerful propulsion flame and accelerating the falling speed.
The space capsule falling at high speed trembled violently, the interior gradually heated up, and the huge friction turned into noise and high heat.
The entire airdrop process will not take more than five minutes, including the time the airdrop capsule is flying in space.
Once it touches the atmosphere of the target planet, the thrusters will be activated to speed up the descent, and it will fall from a high altitude to the ground within tens of seconds.
Landing from an altitude of 10,000 meters in a few tens of seconds, this airdrop method is undoubtedly courting death for other troops, and it is impossible for the body to bear it.
But it's not a big deal for space fighters.
This kind of airborne method also demonstrates the power of the interstellar fighters.
Sicarius tried his best to control his emotions. There was only noise around him, and he couldn't see the enemy who was about to fight, nor his comrades who were in the same airborne pod.
There was nothing he could do until the drop pod was fully down.
Compared with this way of entering the field directly into the sky, he prefers the surgically precise deployment and swift surprise of the Storm Bird.
Guilliman also had very valid reasons for deciding to use airborne pods to release troops.
Dropping the space fighter known as the Emperor's Angel on the enemy's rear without warning can cause a more devastating psychological shock, overwhelming the opponent by three points in terms of momentum.
Accompanied by a booming sound, the hatch of the airborne cabin was directly blasted outwards, and the restraint belts restraining the space warriors also bounced open at the same time.
They landed precisely on a traitor's artillery position.
Those cultists with various blasphemous symbols tattooed on their faces and bodies hadn’t realized what was going on before they were blown away by the huge shock wave caused by the landing of the airborne capsule. Some of the cultists who got close The body exploded directly, and the flesh and blood scattered a little.
"For Guilliman." Sicarius, activating his power sword and holding a bolter, let out a battle cry.
