Chapter 1337: Heading to the Canaan Star Alliance

Corax asked.

"What is the situation over at the Canaan Star Alliance?"

Horus smiled and said.

"Corax, the Zerg have already devoured over ten billion people within their borders; they are overwhelmed themselves. We are helping them fight the Zerg, so they are begging for it."

A glimmer of cunning flashed in Corax's eyes.

"That is good, but once we enter, it won't just be about fighting the Zerg."

Horus looked at him.

"What do you mean?"

Corax said.

"The Canaan Star Alliance touched Forbidden Technology, plunging the entire Bode Star System into crisis; we need to reconsider the positioning of the Canaan Star Alliance."

Sanguinius raised an eyebrow.

"Corax, are you looking to use this opportunity to expand?"

Corax shook his head.

"It is help. There must still be Human Civilization within the Canaan Star Alliance that needs liberation. The resources of those planets need to be developed. If we don't do it, others will."

Magnus said.

"Corax is right. The Zerg won't just eat the Canaanite planets. If we have a foothold within the Canaan Star Alliance, we can respond more quickly to the next Zerg invasion."

Horus was in Silence for a second, then spoke.

"Solve the Zerg crisis first, then we can discuss this matter in more detail."

Corax nodded.

"Of course, fighting the Zerg is the priority."

Sanguinius asked.

"Regarding supplies, has the matter with the Ash People been arranged?"

Horus said.

"Modrak has already agreed. The transport ships of the Ash Star Alliance are loading cargo, and along with Guilliman's supply fleet, everything will be in place in two days."

Magnus asked.

"What about the Lamenters? They suffered heavy losses; should they stay behind to rest and reorganize?"

Horus thought for a moment.

"Ake said they can still fight; the Chapter Master of the Lamenters is a tough man. But their losses are indeed too great. Let them stay on Eridanus III to rest and reorganize; wait for the follow-up Ultramarines legion to arrive, then rendezvous with them."

Sanguinius nodded.

"Good, the warriors of the Blood Angels can still fight; we will follow to the Canaan Star Alliance."

Magnus said.

"The Thousand Sons will go too; psychic power is essential for dealing with Zerg Brain Bugs."

Corax said.

"The Raven Guard will deploy in full. What about the Luna Wolves and the Iron Warriors?"

Horus said.

"The entire Luna Wolves, and all Iron Warriors under my command will follow."

The corners of Corax's mouth lifted slightly.

"Then it is settled; we depart in two days."

On the flagship of the Ash Star Alliance, Modrak stood on the Bridge, looking at the moving light dots on the Holographic Star Map; the fleet of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance was regrouping.

"General, the fleet of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance is leaving," the Adjutant said.

Modrak nodded.

"I know."

The Adjutant asked.

"Where are they going?"

Modrak said.

"The Canaan Star Alliance, to help the Canaanites fight the Zerg."

The Adjutant was in Silence for a second.

"General, should we send troops too?"

"No, we will cooperate by providing supplies; do not engage in any hostile behavior."

He turned around, looking at the Steel fleet outside the window that was cleaning up the battlefield.

"Remember, the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance is not our enemy. As long as we do not provoke them, they will not attack us."

The Adjutant nodded.

"Yes, General."

In the orbit of Eridanus III, the transport ships of the Ash Star Alliance were docking with the ships of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance.

Ammunition, fuel, and medical supplies were being transported onto the ships in crates.

The workers of the Ash Star Alliance were busy under the command of the soldiers of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance, their four eyes filled with awe.

"Quick! Quick! Don't dawdle!"

A foreman of the Ash Star Alliance shouted.

A young Ash worker asked.

"Foreman, who are they? How are they so... terrifying?"

The foreman looked at him.

"They are Space Marines of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance, don't ask so much, get to work."

The young worker nodded and continued to move the ammunition crates.

On a supply ship of the Luna Wolves, Dunba was taking inventory of the supplies.

"Is the ammunition enough?"

Horus's voice came from the Communication Device.

Dunba looked at the Data Pad.

"Father, ammunition is still fifteen percent short, fuel is sufficient, medical supplies are sufficient, spare parts are sufficient."

Horus said.

"Ammunition is the priority, have the Ash People speed up."

Dunba nodded.

"Yes, Father."

On another ship, the warriors of the Blood Angels were checking their equipment.

"Company Commander, is our ammunition still enough?"

A Blood Angels Space Marine asked.

Kovor nodded.

"Enough, the supplies sent by the Ash People are enough for us to use for three days."

The young warrior asked.

"What about after three days?"

Kovor said.

"After three days, the Ultramarines Legion will come with more supplies, and the Ash Star Alliance will also continue to provide supplies."

On the ship of the Thousand Sons, Magnus was floating in mid-air, his psychic perception scanning the entire fleet.

His red hair was particularly striking under the lights, and the book in his hand had already been closed.

"Lord Magnus, your tea."

A warrior of the Thousand Sons handed over a cup of hot tea.

Magnus took the tea and took a sip.

"Thank you."

On the surface of Eridanus III, the temporary camp of the Weepers Chapter.

Aketesi stood in the center of the camp, looking at the warriors who were resting.

Many warriors were receiving treatment; some had broken legs, some were missing arms, and some were covered in bandages.

Flavius walked over.

"Chapter Master, the casualty statistics are out. One hundred and seventy-three dead, three hundred and twenty seriously wounded. Minor injuries not counted."

Aketesi was in Silence for a second.

"Understood."

Flavius asked.

"Chapter Master, are we really going to stay on Eridanus to rest? Not follow them to the Canaan Star Alliance?"

Aketesi looked at him.

"This is the will of Lord Sanguinius."

Flavius lowered his head.

"Yes, Chapter Master."

Aketesi turned around and looked at the warriors who were resting.

"Notify all companies to rest well. We will set off once the Ultramarines Legion arrives."

Flavius nodded.

"Yes, Chapter Master."

A Weepers warrior walked over, holding a badge in his hand; it was the relic of Solaris.

"Chapter Master, the badge of Solaris, Officer Flavius asked me to give it to you."

Aketesi took the badge and held it in his palm.

"Solaris, fought until the end."

He was in Silence for a second and put the badge away.

"When we return to the Xiuluo Holy Star, place it in our base."

The warrior nodded.

"Yes, Chapter Master."

Two days later, the fleet of the Xiuluo Holy Star Alliance had finished assembling in the orbit of Eridanus III.

On the Bridge of the Loyal Soul, Horus sat on the command chair, with the Holographic Star Map in front of him.

The holographic projections of Sanguinius, Magnus, and Corax appeared before him.

"Resupply complete."

Dunba reported.

Horus nodded.

"All ships, target: Canaan Star Alliance, Viridian Sector."

Corax said.

"The Raven Guard will take the lead; I am going to scout the Zerg's position."

Horus nodded.

"Be careful, brother."

Corax smiled.

"The Raven Guard will not be discovered."

His holographic projection dissipated.

Sanguinius asked.

"Horus, once we arrive at the Canaan Star Alliance, what is your plan?"

Horus thought for a moment.

"First, find the Zerg Nest, then concentrate our firepower and wipe them out in one wave; do not give them a chance to catch their breath."

Magnus said.

"The Thousand Sons will be responsible for dealing with the Brain Bugs and the large-scale destructive Zerg."

Sanguinius said.

"The Blood Angels will be responsible for ground combat; our warriors excel at melee."

Horus nodded.

"The Luna Wolves will also help, and the Iron Warriors will be responsible for space combat and fire support."

He stood up.

"Depart."
