In the 14th Division of the Imperial Defense Forces, there was such a man. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoHe is not well known to the outside world or officially, but he is a legend among all the soldiers of the Legion of Datanya.

He was none other than "Raging Konstantin", Imperial Commissar Colonel Konstantin Makarridge, a madman nicknamed the "Greenskin Commissar" by his soldiers.

Originate:

As for Konstantin's origins, there is only gossip among the Rangers (Note 1). According to his own account (these things were made after he was drunk, and no one dared to ask when he was sober), he was born in a feudal world in the empire called "Etvance". There, the young Konstantin was born as a serf, but as he grew up, the boy soon showed a tough attitude and a violent temper in the miserable life of a serf, and he began to constantly try to escape the slavery of being a serf. When he was 13 years old, the serf owners, who had been so tormented by his tenacity and insurrection, finally decided to pull out the thorn once and for all, and he sent a cadre to try to capture and slaughter Konstantin to make an example of the serfs, but when Konstantin found out about this, he began to spread rumors among the serfs: to tell every serf that the poor men had come to arrest him. When the householders arrived in the serf's quarters, there was a general panic, a riot-------- and then chaos, with the help of which Konstantin managed to escape from the farm.

Going outside, Konstantin had nothing, all he had was his tough character, a strong physique tempered by years of serf labor, and an impulse to not be afraid of heaven and earth. He soon found his home: in a town, Chadan O'Vos, the local gang leader, saw a young boy who was beaten by his own gang and still resisted violently, and even stubbornly kicked the ankle of one of his men when he broke an arm -------and was mercilessly knocked to the ground. In the years that followed, the already wild boy grew up under the teaching and training of a tough and ruthless Cha Dan, becoming more ----- and dangerous every passing moment. Soon, the name began to circulate among gangsters in neighboring cities and regions. Everyone saw Konstantin as a dangerous wolf cub with growing fangs.

If it weren't for the large-scale invasion of the Chaos Legion later, Constantine might have ended up as an underground emperor. When Konstantin was 16 years old, the Legion of Chaos Bearers began to invade the feudal world. The High Lords of Etvance began to gather their armies and prepare for battle with the Knights, and joined the Imperial Guards who arrived to reinforce them against the Chaos attack. In the face of the war, the underground world controlled by the gangs also began to crumble, and large numbers of citizens in many towns and cities were mobilized into militias or captured for forced labor, without discrimination, without immunity. It was under such circumstances that Konstantin was arrested in a labor team.

As the war continues, cities are in ruins, and all parts of Europe are constantly creating large numbers of dead bodies. One day, Konstantin's labor team is sent to clear the rubble of a town that has just been bombed by Chaos. There, the tragic situation that Konstantin witnessed had a very big impact on his heart. "We were each carrying a two-metre-long shovel ------- scrape the remains of civilians who had been killed from the walls and from the streets." Konstantin said only one thing when he mentioned that time. After that, Konstantin lied about his age to join the lord's order------- no one would have to verify these despite the heavy casualties.

A few months later, Konstantin and others defended a position with a group of troops of the Imperial Guard. After a day and a night of fierce fighting, almost all of these troops were killed and wounded, and the red-eyed Konstantin did not notice that there was no one left alive with him, so he threw away his musket and shield, and instead took a bayonet laser rifle found from the corpses of the Wehrmacht soldiers, and continued to fight the enemy who rushed to the position. In the ensuing battle, he single-handedly killed ten rebel soldiers who rushed up. Finally, when a grinning Chaos Space Marines approached him, an exhausted Constantine stabbed the entire bayonet into the Chaos Space Marine's mouth along with the wedge-shaped flame suppressor from the muzzle of the laser rifle at the cost of a hole in his stomach. This was the prototype of the story he had been telling others that he had been telling others, "An ordinary defender killed ten rebels and a Chaos warrior with a bayonet-mounted laser rifle". The reality, of course, was that he was not a Wehrmacht soldier at all, but was only holding a Wehrmacht weapon; And in the end, it was not Konstantin's fatal blow that killed the Chaos Warrior, but the raining firepower of the reinforcements who arrived in time. After the battle, Konstantin, who was almost bleeding to death, was finally found and carried back.

Konstantin lay in the ambulance temple for more than a month------ which allowed him to lie until the end of the battle. The Chaos Legion was eventually forced to retreat, and Etvance was able to survive after paying a huge price. After recovering from his wounds, Konstantin went to his former head of the Order and asked to fight again. Although the fighting had largely subsided by this time, the Knight Captain's experience and statements surprised the Konstantin and reported it to the lord, who was also surprised and impressed by the young man. So when the Imperial transport ship came to transport supplies and personnel, Konstantin boarded the Imperial transport ship on the recommendation of the Great Lord, left his hometown and stepped into the vast sea of stars------- he would be sent to where he should go.

Note 1: The Rangers, the elite infantry unique to the Datanya Defense Division, have the same status as the Storm Commandos in other Imperial forces, but are more capable in close combat, move faster, and are more expensive.

Appointment:

Instead of becoming a judge, Konstantin eventually became an imperial commissar. In the academy, his fiery temper has also caused him countless troubles. One of the biggest of these was when a prestigious Anglican priest was preaching from the pulpit, and for some unknown reason, Constantine was so angry that he did something that directly brought down the pulpit and caused the priest to fall. This time he was almost kicked out of the academy, but in the end, it was the Anglican priest who saved him------ who suppressed the whole incident and declared that everyone should be given enough space to use their abilities to serve the Emperor. Later, Konstantin graduated from the academy ahead of schedule and was sent to the Far Eastern star field of the empire. There, as a newly appointed Imperial Commissar, he entered the 14th Division of the Imperial Defense Force in Datanya, where he performed his duties.

At first, Konstantin's day did not go well. His temper was so violent that almost all the soldiers feared him. And his own emotions were always too impatient, and he could not bear to supervise the soldiers he was referring to. In his opinion, all soldiers were cowardly cowards. Whenever he arrived on the battlefield, he either charged desperately at the front, leaving the soldiers behind him and ignoring them, or shot the soldiers who seemed to be not brave enough one by one------including basically everyone, and shot them one by one like a roll call. His incompetent commissar was soon kicked around like a ball from unit to unit, and it wasn't until he finally entered the Ranger unit that things took a turn for the better.

The Rangers in the divisions of the Datanya Defense Force are its exclusive units, and these elite infantry are not under the jurisdiction of ordinary infantry companies, but are directly under the command of the division headquarters. They usually formed a battle group of every hundred, commanded by a centurion. A division usually has seven to nine of these ranger battle groups. As far as the Rangers themselves are concerned, their missions and operations are known for their high intensity and high danger. The Rangers recruit directly from all the soldiers of the entire division, and any ordinary soldier can participate in the recruitment of the Rangers as long as he wishes, and as long as he passes the examination, he can leave the original combat unit and become a member of the Rangers, and the superior officers are not allowed to interfere. If the soldier has committed any crimes, he will be punished, and if he successfully joins the Rangers, his previous crimes will be erased. However, due to the high intensity and danger of the Ranger mission, only those who are cornered or wild by nature will usually enlist in the Ranger. So when Konstantin entered the Rangers, he immediately felt at home among the equally manic and aggressive soldiers. In his opinion, these fierce Rangers didn't need him to worry about fighting, and he could focus on what he loved best: killing. On the other hand, the Rangers also admired the violent and aggressive commissar and were willing to follow him into battle. As a result, not only these rangers, but also Konstantin himself's achievements skyrocketed, and soon became the focus of attention of the entire division.

The centurion of Konstantin's Ranger battle group was Captain Redzok-Congreve. This person is also a well-known legend, both leading troops and combating are excellent masters. Captain Congreeve has always been known for his ability to fight big battles and win by surprise, and the most famous example of this is when he led an entire battle group, using the fact that the rangers were equipped with enclosed breathing apparatus, each holding a large rock, from the bottom of a large river against the rushing water for several kilometers, unwittingly penetrated into a rebel-controlled city, and then came a surprise attack of the gods, turning the whole city upside down, and cooperating with the large army to capture the city in one fell swoop. Konstantin and Captain Congreve have always been very compatible---- although their personalities can be described as completely opposite. But no matter what, they're always the best mates. Konstantin once said, "If Redzok asks me to jump into the mouth of a green-skinned beast, I will laugh and boldly jump in----- because I know we will win this battle." "The superb tactician Redzok, together with the formidable meat slicer Konstantin, led this Ranger battle group into one of the most famous ace units of the entire 14th Division.

However, such "happy times" (in Constantine's words) did not last long. In one battle, due to the sudden appearance of the Necromancer, a group of Eldar troops proposed to the 14th Division to cooperate against the Necromancy, and the Imperial forces agreed, and sent the most elite Redzok's Ranger battle group to participate in the Eldart's raid on the Necrocats' energy source---------- the battle was successful, but in the final retreat, the Elven commander cheated and betrayed Redzok and his rangers at the most critical time. As a result, the Elven forces were able to evacuate unharmed, while Redzok and his Rangers, along with Constantine, were surrounded by the remnants of the Necrons and were almost completely wiped out. If it weren't for the Necrons eventually ceased due to their energy running out, Konstantin would have been doomed to be buried in the Tomb along with all the Rangers. In the end, less than one-third of the rescued combat team survived, and Captain Redzok was also turned to ashes by the necromantic Gaussian weapon. Konstantin was seriously wounded, but the pain of his body eventually gave way to endless anger against the Eldars, and as soon as the injuries were brought under control, Konstantin led all the willing rangers to the division headquarters to ignore the orders of the division, and broke away from the troops to launch a revenge against the Eldars, they launched a hunt for the Eldars everywhere, and even forcibly looted the equipment of other troops for their own actions. While dealing with a group of Elven troops hiding in a densely vegetated canyon, he led the Rangers to charge into the nearest garrison supply depot with bayonets, and snatched out all the grenades that were supposed to be used by the three infantry platoons. Then everyone lined up in a horizontal row in the canyon, each dragging a sack full of grenades, and throwing one at a time, and blasting it from one end of the canyon to the other like a plow, blowing up the whole canyon to the ground. Konstantin's act of attacking the Elves on his own against the orders of the division headquarters was technically a rebellion, and the ransacking of the supply depot made the quartermaster furious. In the end, General Faraille, who was then the commander-in-chief of the 14th Division, almost used his honorary escort to capture Konstantin back. When Konstantin returned, he didn't care about what kind of military punishment he would face, but offered to let him go to the cemetery where Captain Redzok was housed one last time, and then he would go to the execution site to receive the execution on his own. When General Faraille accompanied Konstantin to Captain Redzok's grave, he was stunned to see Konstantin dragging a large box, taking out the heads of the Spirit Clansmen from it, and stacking them neatly on Captain Redzok's grave, with about twenty on each layer, which was as many as three layers! In the end, General Faraille took some extraordinary measures to save Konstantin, but the title "Fury Konstantin" has spread throughout the division with his deeds, and even spread to other divisions.

After that, Captain Redzok's Ranger Combat Group was rebuilt----- and their deeds attracted a large number of joiners. There is only one point, there is no new centurion in this combat group--------- Konstantin's attitude is very clear: there is only one centurion in this combat group, and that is Captain Redzok, and whoever dares to say that the captain is dead and useless, I will make whoever becomes dead. So everyone brings up this topic again------ everyone knows that their centurion is Captain Redzok, and the captain has been leading them. Konstantin was responsible for all this, he took the entire battle team and declared that he was also responsible for the captain--------- in fact, after working together for so many years, he also learned a lot of skills in leading troops and fighting from the captain.

Of course, in terms of foresight and tactical acumen, Konstantin was in any way inferior to Captain Redzok, but at least he was not a fool. And, on the other hand, his extraordinary bravery often leads to some miracles that are theoretically impossible. For his rangers, this commissar is a god, a being who dominates everything on the battlefield except the emperor. Whether in daily life or in battle, Konstantin was always able to subdue his rangers. In addition to giving his old fist to disobedient thorns (he famously said: If anyone is dissatisfied with my decision, they are welcome to come and debate with me -------to see who puts their opinion into the opponent's mouth first), he is also very good at Huairou: he has adopted a workaround to defy the military rule that "it is forbidden to carry and drink alcoholic beverages during battle". Carry a special flamethrower with you every time you go into battle------ this flamethrower is special in that its fuel canister is enlarged, and it is filled with spirits instead of ordinary fuel--------- and there is nothing more morale-boosting for the Rangers than the command to "have a drink" coming from their headphones after a fight.

On the other hand, this is something that many people do not think about at all: since the death of the captain in battle, Konstantin has not shot a single of his Rangers. Even for the most disobedient rough soldier, he only reasoned with his fists instead of blasting pistols. Of course, in the vast majority of cases, the Rangers always give face to the political commissar, and an officer of the foreign regiment who witnessed the battle of Konstantin's Rangers couldn't help but sigh: "If every soldier of the Defense Forces has such a mental outlook, then what else do we need the commissar to do?" Of course, Konstantin was not so polite to people other than his own men, and in the Battle of Antarlu II alone, at least seven officers (the highest rank was a colonel of artillery) were shot off by Konstantin for various reasons.

In almost every battle, as soon as Konstantin and his rangers appear, the first impression of the people around them must be extremely "noisy": these people, each of them, have a habit of venting their emotions in the form of a voice in battle. In several battles, their enemies were stunned by the unexpected roar. Coupled with Konstantin himself's usual bold and fiery style (in a battle against the Chaos Legion, he once risked being pinched in two and lifted the head of an annihilator alive while being grabbed by the opponent and lifted above his head), he was nicknamed the "Greenskin" political commissar by his own subordinates and many people--------- everyone felt that this man was really the wrong child, and it was his original destiny to be an orc. And Konstantin himself regretted this, he had repeatedly said how happy it would be if he could go to a certain group of greenskin tribes to be the boss------ of course, this can only be said in private.

Konstantin's madness is well known, but what if he meets another madman like him? Konstantin's Rangers will tell you: it's not as simple as two madmen. In a battle against the Orcs, the 14th Division had the honor of fighting alongside the Space Wolves of the Space Marines. During this time, Konstantin met a man: Ingall-Harstonhoff, a sergeant of the Space Wolves, who was also a fiery red-bearded rough man who often openly expressed disdain for the weakness and weakness of the Imperial Guard. And it just so happened that once when he was talking about it with the strength of wine, Konstantin happened to come nearby, Harston Hoff recognized this "green-skinned commissar" he had heard before, but he didn't buy it at all, and said that he and his rangers were useless in front of Konstantin, and as a result, Konstantin was naturally about to explode in his lungs, no matter how soon he raised his fist and smashed it, the two scuffled together for more than ten minutes------- as for the outcome of this fight, no one knows so far, All witnesses present at the time had collective selective amnesia. All we know is that after the fight, the two men with blue noses and swollen faces looked at each other and laughed like two madmen. In the battles that followed, Konstantin and Harstonhoff became close comrades-in-arms, leading their men to fight side by side in almost every battle. Anyone who lived through that time will be impressed by the scene of two madmen laughing maniacally and slaughtering orcs with their hands and feet behind each other. Before an attack on an orc camp began, the two men agreed to engage in a "match" in which they both wore a thick cloak of the same size and slaughtered the orcs. After the battle, the two of them were uncloaked in cloaks and weighed -------- weight soaked in the blood of the orcs. Whoever has a heavier cloak means that the more orcs he kills, then whoever wins. After a bloody storm, the two Bloodies returned to the camp to decide the winner, and the result was that Constantine's cloak was slightly heavier than Hastonhoff's, but Hastonhoff was not convinced, citing his own size as much larger than Constantine, and his power armor had sucked a lot of orc blood, not to mention his thick beard. Then Konstantin said that he could cut off all his beards and weigh them together--------- and finally the two who had a dispute decided to decide again, so in a later battle against the orc settlement, people saw two figures wrapped in thick cloaks, but this time Harston Hoff took off the power armor on his body in advance, Hanging only a loincloth, he roared wildly and picked up the giant axe and rushed towards the stunned orcs----------- and during this period, Constantine also set a record unique in the whole division: he was the only one in the division who could drink with the wild wolves, and the soldiers of the space wild wolves drank the kind of strong drink mixed with human blood, and ordinary people could not even drink a sip. Finally, at the end of the battle, Harston Hoff gave Konstantin a gift of one of his necklaces------ which was adorned with the teeth of the famous beast on the home planet of the Space Wolf: the Fenris Wolf. According to the grapevine, the necklace has magical powers: it protects the wearer from shedding blood in battle as long as the wearer can make it drink the blood of enemies.

In the most recent large-scale battle------- Battle of Antarlu II, Konstantin led his men to set a unique record: in the face of the overall disadvantage of the Imperial forces on the entire front, he led his Rangers and a group of soldiers from other units that he had temporarily captured to launch a frenzied assault--------- they crossed their own positions and lines of fire in just two hours, and rushed directly into the depth of the rebels' positions. In one fell swoop, he passed through the rebels' three defense lines, attacked and advanced twenty miles, and took down a planetary defense silo array that was originally controlled by the rebels in one fell swoop. So in the orbit of the planet, the Chaos fleet, which had just arrived and was about to project troops on the surface of the planet, was hit head-on by a completely unexpected head-on attack, and the losses were extremely heavy. This battle was a turning point in the campaign, allowing the Empire to turn the tide and win the battle on Antarlu II. Constantine set the limit of the infantry advance speed in the history of the Datannian Division, even the Space Marines were so staggered that only a madman like Constantine could do this kind of thing--------- and no sane Space Marine commander would make such a joke on the lives of his brothers. When Konstantin, who had become a bloody man, returned to the military headquarters, the generalissimo was so excited that he personally awarded him the medal, but Konstantin fell to the ground after receiving the medal: "I don't want the medal!" I want soldiers! "--------- the fact that of the nearly two hundred rangers and three hundred Wehrmacht soldiers he led at the time of the assault, only about forty returned with him-------- and he allegedly broke three saw swords in the battle. As a result of this battle, Konstantin was awarded the Order of Blood Red and the rank of colonel was raised. But he always refused to transfer to a higher level, and still served as his Ranger political commissar----- which also made many people feel a lot of peace of mind, everyone knew that when he really launched a rush, Konstantin killed people without blinking, just like the death assault on Antarlu II, at that time there were probably only two kinds of people in his eyes: the friendly army behind the ass, the enemy in front of him------ regardless of which uniform he was wearing on which side of the military flag.

In the hearts of all the soldiers, especially the Rangers, Konstantin and his saw sword were a symbol of absolute power. With his Warcry, he became the spiritual leader of almost all Rangers. It wasn't until the 14th Division set foot on the cursed planet Tantalus 5--------- during which Constantine and his rangers were separated from the bulk in the chaos of the Great Retreat and disappeared on the cursed planet, never to return. Now, Commissar Konstantin and his rangers have been included in the list of fallen soldiers, recorded in the Book of Honor of Datanya. Although all the officers and men of the 14th Division would no longer hear the roar of this crazy commissar at the height of the battle, his name would live forever among the officers and men of the army, as a centurion often said to his men: "You can reflect your opinion like Constantine-------- and see if he will shove your theory down your throat with his fists!" ”

When it comes to the end of the mad commissar, almost everyone reacts in the same way: whoever ended up killing Konstantin and his Rangers, but it's safe to say that the price they paid must have been terrible.
