Due to their proficiency in fighting underground, tunnel rats are often sent to quell heretical rebellions in high-density areas such as hive cities and mining worlds. During this great expedition, they were almost the last batch of troops to arrive, and they were directly Sent to the brutal Badab war zone.
The battle psychic was a member of the 12th Siege Regiment. When the regiment was performing a breakthrough mission at a key underground node, it first encountered an ambush deployed by the Iron Warriors. In the process of fighting to break through the enemy's death trap, a can The terrifying Great Daemon of Slaanesh was summoned, and most of the regiment's commanders, including the regiment leader, died in the battle. At this time, the battle psyker decisively adopted an extremely risky strategy, first letting the other three psykers in the regiment Let go of your mind, link the four souls together, and then remove your own psychic restriction collar. With your brain almost boiling, you use the power of a gamma-level psyker to bring the demon together with the group of wizards who summoned it. After being annihilated, all three other psykers were killed. Only he survived by chance, but his brain was also permanently damaged, he lost control of his limbs, and could only move with the help of mechanical equipment.
The loyal stormtrooper was a veteran in his fifties. His deeds included but were not limited to sneaking into an important enemy stronghold alone to assassinate enemy commanders, single-handedly going deep behind enemy lines to destroy the enemy's armory, and performing evil witchcraft when the enemy was doing it. Destroy it.
Its most notable feature is that all tasks are completed by one person. Its infiltration level is evaluated by the Ministry of Military Affairs as "far superior to any assassin in the Court of Assassins." It is said that his favorite infiltration prop is an ordinary-looking cardboard box. Soshyan wasn't sure whether it was true or just some kind of wild rumor.
As for the company chaplain, Soshyan personally feels that he is far less legendary than the others. He is a chaplain of the Maelstrom Native Sign Corps. He has participated in battles in Endymion, Lamptan and other areas, and is the most prominent. An example is that his regiment was surrounded by enemies during a battle in the Crow System due to communication and command problems. When the soldiers were shaken and almost collapsed, the chaplain held the regiment flag in one hand and waved a chain saw in the other. Rushing towards the enemy alone, according to the testimonies of the soldiers at the time, the scene was probably——
"We were surrounded, surrounded by enemies. Almost all the regiment commanders and company commanders were killed. We were done. Then the priest raised his chain saw and prayed loudly to the sky. When these words echoed in the silent battlefield , lightning came, making the sky bright, and then he grabbed the regimental flag and charged towards the enemy. I swear to the throne that we were all full of courage. Everyone followed the priest and charged. The enemy was frightened and urinated on his butt. .Then reinforcements arrived and we were saved, a miracle of the throne."
In fact, Soshyan suspected that the addition of a priest by the Ministry of Military Affairs might have been interfered by the state church, but this priest was indeed full of courage and led the team out of desperate situations several times. It is a miracle that he is still alive today.
The last veteran is also a legend. He is a Kashezin sergeant from the 88th Cadian Mechanized Infantry Regiment named Ben Yevrian.
Soshyan saw some past combat examples of this elite Sergeant Major Kashezin in the regimental banner newspaper published within the Ministry of Military Affairs. The Kulul Commando under his leadership has accomplished many things that are considered even by Space Marine standards. He was given a difficult task, and he himself was also a tough guy among tough guys. He not only destroyed many terrible aliens, but also faced the enemy's Chaos Space Marines alone.
The 88th Cadian Mechanized Infantry Regiment also participated in the Battle of Badab. Ben Yevrian and his commandos used heavy weapons to annihilate thirteen Demon Engines during the battle, and he himself also used melta weapons in the battle. Killed an enemy Chaos Terminator at close range.
"You are a role model for all soldiers, embodiments of the Emperor's holy wrath, and walking legends. Aliens will be shaken by your name, heretics will be frightened by your name, and you will live up to the expectations of the heretics. The most severe blow and punishment. Therefore, on behalf of the High Command of the Expeditionary Force, I hereby award you with the greatest Order of the Star of Terra in recognition of your will and spirit that transcend mortals and your eternal merits."
Soshyan said, picking up the box made of gold from the red velvet doily held by the attendant. Inside lay a sparkling medal, which was golden yellow in color and inlaid with a crystal-carved medal in the middle. , a miniature model of Holy Terra, with a laurel wreath around the edge, and a small text relief, engraved with the first sentence on the first page of the Ministry of War Manual - Human courage and perseverance will forever be engraved under the stars.
The first person to receive the medal was Colonel Stark. He solemnly saluted Soshyan with a military salute, but he used his new mechanical arm - his previous arm was bitten off by a Slaanesh beast. , and at the same time, he beat the devil to death with his fists.
Looking at this tough guy among Catachan tough guys, Soshyan smiled and joked:
"Colonel Stark, are you using your new arm well?"
Stark grinned and replied:
"It still needs to be adjusted and adjusted. Just like my ninth wife, she always has a little temper."
Soshyan was also amused by this humorous answer, and then came to Huck, who also raised his chest and raised his head to salute him with a military salute. The strong man seemed to have just a few more scars on his body. It was hard to imagine that he used The heavy explosive bomb "smashed" a Chaos Dreadnought to death alive.
"Sergeant Harker, I heard that your arm strength is the best in the entire army. Many soldiers in the battle group want to compete with you."
Soshyan also smiled when handing the medal to the other party.
Huck replied easily:
"My lord, I am available at any time."
When he came to Les Mabo, this "legendary" soldier just saluted casually, and his attitude could even be called "disrespectful". But Soshyan didn't care very much, but he didn't care about it anyway. Look, this guy doesn't seem to be very "special", at least not as strong as Huck, but his deeds are too "magical". For example, many soldiers proved that he was in the defense of the Moon of Destruction. More than once, after knocking down an enemy Space Marine with his bare hands, he beat the opponent to death with his fists, and also used a fighting knife to "dismantle" a Hellbeast and a Heavy Haunter Engine.
But from the outside, he is a cold, even gloomy Catachan soldier. The only "bright spot" is the red bandage on his forehead.
"Sergeant Mabo, congratulations on receiving another Terra Star Medal. This expedition is lucky to have a legend like you."
Ma Bo just nodded and took the medal with one hand without saying a word. Without even looking at it, he just put it into his trouser pocket, as if it was just a small object of little value. Even Huck and Huck beside him Stark frowned, especially Stark. He had already told the other party countless times, just this time, not to show such a bad face, at least not to cause trouble to the group.
