"I am Rogal Dorn, Primarch of the VII Legion, the Imperial Fists, and one of the nine loyal Primarchs. Warriors of the Empire, please listen to me! I am not a traitor! My love and loyalty to the Emperor surpass anything I have ever known for myself! However, ever since the great Emperor sat upon the Golden Throne, unable to speak, the vast Empire has gradually decayed and degenerated over the past tens of thousands of years!"
"The Emperor's original intention has gradually deviated. The Emperor's explanation has gradually been misinterpreted. The former glory has gradually declined!"
"As someone loyal to the Emperor, I will never allow those High Lords to continue to act so recklessly!"
"I will return to Terra with the Light Chaser Fleet! Just to meet the Emperor and restore the Imperium to its former glory!"
Roar, roar, roar, accompanied by thunderous shouts, the loud slogans instantly resounded throughout the entire solar system.
"Purge the court of corrupt officials and restore order! For humanity! For the Emperor!"
Under the constant bombardment of information from the Propaganda, a Class 5 civilization's interstellar broadcast jammer, ordinary humans throughout the solar system began to feel bewildered. Even some Astra Militarum soldiers and Astartes began to waver, unsure whether to trust the High Lords' Council or Rogal Dorn.
In contrast, the Light Chaser fleet's powerful signal jamming caused immense chaos in the Imperial Army's communications. Those who attempted to offer a rebuttal were silenced and booted off the line.
"Don't...beep...they...beep, we who are loyal to the Emperor should...beep...kill...beep." He could hardly formulate a complete sentence, let alone command a battle.
Meanwhile, the Lightseeker fleet, having broken through the Imperial defenses, took advantage of the Imperials' chaotic command, engine failure, and the effects of various space-time weapons to rapidly sail towards Terra. Although they encountered obstacles from Mars and the Moon along the way, they were unable to stop their advance.
Moreover, under Rogal Dorn's strong persuasion, the Empire's last line of defense deployed in orbit above Terra, the 7th Legion and the Phalanx, have all switched sides and chosen to stand on the side of their returning Primarch.
With this, Terra's orbit had been completely taken, leaving only ground landing operations. The entire fleet immediately deployed on the spot, sealing off the surrounding star field, ready to resist anyone who attempted to force their way in.
You have to understand that planetary landing operations, regardless of era, always incur the highest casualties. On the one hand, unfamiliarity with the landing environment creates the constant risk of stalling, being overwhelmed by fire, and being ambushed. On the other hand, the vast number of anti-aircraft weapons can destroy many of your fragile landing craft before they even touch the ground.
Therefore, to minimize casualties, the attackers either leveraged their air superiority to preemptively eliminate the planet's air defenses and heavy firepower before launching an airborne landing. Alternatively, they could utilize surprise attacks or advanced, rapid landing methods to drop troops onto the ground, such as the Protoss' warp technology.
The former was unacceptable, for Terra, the throne world of the Imperium of Mankind, held immense historical, political, and cultural significance. Orbital bombardment would inevitably cause widespread devastation and the loss of innocent lives. This would not only displease the Emperor, but would also undoubtedly draw condemnation from all of humanity.
The latter option was even more undesirable. This was because the Protoss' warping technology only applied to them, and other races were unable to use it normally. Even if one could barely reach the strength and requirements of a physical warp, the intense discomfort after the warp would temporarily render them unable to fight normally. Chang Wei had already experienced this.
Chang Wei had originally stormed Terra under the slogan "Purge the imperial court, restore order." If a group of Protoss Templars were airdropped in, wouldn't that be like an alien invasion? Wouldn't that instantly ignite the hearts of the people, sending them charging into a fight with the Light Chasers?
Therefore, Chang Wei could only send human troops to land! And this human force couldn't be too weak. Otherwise, the elite imperial troops stationed on Terra and the group of imperial guards guarding the palace would teach them a lesson!
There was no need to think too much about it, Chang Wei already had the answer in his mind.
"Order Rico and his Fire Chasing Legion to conduct the first wave of airborne landings! Possessing Force perception, they can evade anti-aircraft fire and ground ambushes to the greatest extent possible, and quickly clear a safe landing site for the follow-up troops!"
"The second wave of airborne landings will be carried out by Titans piloted by Iron Pilots. They are highly mobile and adaptable to various situations, making them well-suited for landing operations behind enemy lines! I need them to block some key routes, especially to mark or destroy threatening anti-aircraft fire points, and provide fire support for the Fire Seekers."
"The third wave of airborne landings will be directed towards the Terran command center. They will primarily consist of SCVs, along with numerous siege tanks, Vultures, Cyclones, and Thors. They will be used to block the entrance, deploy artillery, and lay mines. This will be used to defend against possible reinforcements from the Mechanicus Titan forces!"
"Let's get started!"
Today, Rui Ge is the leader of the Fire Chasing Legion. Whether in terms of strength or aura, he is no longer the same as before.
He just shouted loudly, and then surrounded by red cans, he let out a passionate cry.
"The Fire Chasing Legion is invincible. Use me in the first battle, and I will surely win!"
