Chapter 191: The Rise of Humanity
The various caves and surfaces of the Battle Moon are filled with countless orcs who fill almost the entire Battle Moon. But when the teleporter was destroyed by Gracie and the others, the number of orcs had begun to dwindle.
The orcs who jumped the Empire's warships had no follow-up support at this time, and all of them suffered casualties under the encirclement and suppression of the Empire's navy, astral army, and space marines, and none of them survived.
The Piercing Doors, which were built by the Technician Kid and the Great Technician, were carefully guarded by the Empire's technicians, who tried to work backwards on the magical teleportation technology of the orcs.
In addition to this teleportation technique, the Orc Battle Moon's technology of destroying an entire planet through a gravity device and extracting all the useful resources from it was also recognized by the Empire's commanders as of great value.
Although the orcs have a strong combat power, instead of spending a lot of resources to build a battle moon, the empire should use these resources to build hundreds of battleships, and the combat power of hundreds of battleships is stronger than a battle moon anyway.
However, the Battle Moon's ability to extract resources from planets through gravity devices was important to the Empire at this time. At this time, the empire that was in rapid need of various resources needed this kind of efficient mining equipment.

Mining Moon (√)
That's what the empire really needs.
After clearing the ships of the orcs and defeating the orc fleet once again, the second group of Space Marines who landed on the Battle Moon were also assembled under the command of their own legion commander.
Tens of thousands of Space Marines are about to join the first Warriors and set off a bloody storm on the Battle Moon.
They weren't as full of Terminator armor as Gracie, but they landed with a myriad of vehicles and mechs.
Even though the orcs supplied a large amount of energy to the Void Shield generator, due to the short time and the destruction of the first warriors, the Void Shield of the Battle Moon was not activated again.
This allowed countless landing craft and drop pods to land directly on the Battle Moon with a large number of war machines and Space Marines.
Originally, 10,000 Space Marines wearing Terminators were stuck into the hearts of orcs like sharp knives, which had already caused great damage to them.
And as more Space Marines descend from the sky, the Orcs feel like they're the outnumbered ones.
Many Space Marines rushed towards the enemy in a sea of stars, and the orcs were completely suppressed by the Space Marines. Every orc feels like they are surrounded by countless Space Marines, and the sound of bombs is everywhere.
Soon, in order to eliminate the orcs on the battle moon as soon as possible and completely control all the areas on the battle moon, a large number of astral troops also joined the war with the delivery of landing craft.
The Orcs who were defeated by the attack of the Space Marines had no chance of victory, and the addition of the Astral Army only accelerated the orc's defeat.
...
...
"Croatian general, the orc forces have been dispersed, and the orc empire in the Lucas star area has been completely defeated by us!"
In terms of domination, the information of the various fleets is constantly gathered here. And the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary fleet, Croatia, finally heard the report he wanted to hear the most.
"Clean up the remnants of the remaining orcs! We need to make every orc feel the Emperor's wrath! ”
As soon as Croatia gave the order, it began to report to Terra on the situation of the war.
Although the Imperial fleet of this expedition against the Orc Empire suffered many casualties, compared to the results achieved, it was still a great victory enough to go down in the history of the Empire.
Countless orcs were destroyed, the orc fleet of millions of warships was completely defeated, a large number of orc worlds were orbitally bombed, and twenty-three orc battle moons were destroyed or occupied, and the loot and resources captured were very rich.
After this battle, it can be said that at least for a hundred years, the orcs of the Taiping Star Domain will no longer pose a threat to the empire.
For the Empire, it was all worth it.
After the orc empire was resolved, the expedition of the entire Taiping Star Domain expeditionary fleet was over.
However, this large fleet did not return to Terra, but was disbanded on the spot. However, the captains had been prepared for this, and the Imperial War Department had already made arrangements for this huge number of warships.
The first is that a large number of warships have been transferred from the establishment of the Navy to the command of the Space Marines.
At this time, although the Star Marine Legion has been reorganized, compared with the Star Marine Legion during the Emperor's period, they only meet the number requirements, and only the number of Star Marines has reached the standard of the Legion.
The Imperial Space Marine Legion was able to destroy all aliens with unstoppable power, recover one human planet after another, and cleanse all aliens from threats to the human world, relying not only on their own force.
When we talk about the combat power of a Space Marine, we must not ignore their power armor and explosive guns, and the various gunboats and planes flying in the sky above their heads, as well as the various tanks and artillery behind them, and even the battle barges in space, are also part of the Star Marine's strength.
Only by completing a series of equipment can the Space Marine Legion be considered to be established, and can it regain its status as the main combat force of the empire during the Great Expedition.
As a result, a large number of warships were divided under the newly formed Star Marine Corps. A series of tanks and gunboats needed by the Space Marine Legion will also be resupplied as soon as possible.
And just as during the Great Expedition, every Space Marine legion could have at least one Glorious Queen-class battleship and use it as the Legion's flagship.
The newly formed Star Marine Legion also needed a large enough battleship to serve as their legion's main base. The giant battleship Titan in the expeditionary fleet is a good fit for this requirement of the Space Marines.
The Titans were much larger than any known Imperial warship, and even the former Glory Queen-class battleships were slightly inferior to them.
And for a warship of this physique, their armor is very heavy and protected by layers of overlapping void shields, which can allow a warship of this level to withstand more damage while maintaining combat effectiveness, and avoid the flagship losing its combat effectiveness first in the war, which will cause instability.
While the Titan may not be as dense in firepower as the Glorious Queen-class battleships of its past, the various devices installed on it that buff friendly fleets make it more suitable for the position of the Legion's flagship.
Many warships, including the Titans, were assigned to the Star Marine Corps, and in a series of military moves, a large number of Star Army Corps were also placed under the command of the Space Marine Corps.
The Astral Army may not be as powerful as the Space Marines, but they are still an important force in the Empire.
Even if the number of Space Marines in the Empire was large at this time, it was roughly estimated that there would be dozens of Star Marine legions to be formed, each of which would have at least hundreds of thousands of Space Marines.
But if you want to use the Space Marine Legion as the main force of the Empire, their numbers are a bit stretched. At this time, the scale of the Empire's war was very large, and the army had to be deployed more extensively, all of which far exceeded the maximum manpower of the Space Marines.
Therefore, the Space Marine Legion needs more manpower.
The Space Marine Legions of the Great Expedition often had hundreds of Imperial auxiliaries under their command, and they were often deployed in various sieges and large-scale raids, or as garrisons for newly conquered planets.
So the newly formed Star Marine Legion is not the only Space Marine.
A starmarines corps consists of a large starfleet and its crew, hundreds of thousands of starmarines, and hundreds of millions of second-line soldiers and various support units, logisticians, laborers, clerks, and more.
Of course, even if it takes so many manpower and warships to assemble a legion of starmarines, after satisfying their needs, there are still a large number of millions of warships left in the expeditionary fleet.
These warships and the soldiers carried on them were deployed to the star sector, sub-star sector, and even a specific planet in the Taiping Star Domain under the orders of the Imperial Military Affairs Department.
They will become the standing armed forces of each star sector, increasing the number of those star fleets by more than ten times, and the combat effectiveness will be increased by dozens of times, and the defense force of the imperial world will have earth-shaking changes.
At this time, the detection range of the tachyon sensors installed on the Imperial warships can cover an entire star area, and when the Imperial world is attacked by the fleets of aliens or traitors, the fleets of the Empire will already rush to the enemy before they can send a signal for help to the Empire, bringing death to the enemy.
The subspace sensors installed on the Empire's warships, although slightly inferior to the tachyon sensors in terms of detection range, can only cover about two-thirds of the range.
But through their sensitive detection of subspace fluctuations, they are able to keep the Imperial fleet on the alert for subspace intrusions.
This subspace sensor can also be installed on the planet, and even the faintest trace of subspace energy will not be ignored by it. The relevant personnel of the Empire will be immediately dispatched to nip the possibility of a subspace invasion into the cradle.
While the Taiping Star Domain's actions against the Orc Empire have achieved significant results, the expeditionary fleets of other Star Domains of the Empire have also greatly eliminated the living force of the Orcs.
Then, like the Taiping Star Domain, the fleet was disbanded and the Space Marine Legion was formed, and a large number of warships were dispatched to various star sectors.
Under the power of the Imperial Invincible Armada, all races and all beings in the galaxy had to restrain their actions at this time, and did not dare to anger the Empire in the slightest.
Even the lawless pirate forces in the starry sky had to disappear for the time being, not daring to have the slightest idea of the Empire's supply fleet.
The battle between the Empire and the Orcs is arguably the fiercest battle in the galaxy in tens of thousands of years.
The Horus Rebellion, which had almost destroyed the Empire, had even less than one-tenth of the Imperial Pacific Star Expeditionary Fleet when the Imperial and Rebel sides finally fought.
What makes the aliens even more desperate is the extreme human supremacy pursued by the Empire, and its hatred of all inhuman races.
In this war that swept the entire galaxy, after seeing the god-like power of the Empire, even the orcs who only had waaagh in their minds learned to avoid the edge of the Empire.
The Spirit Clan, who had always regarded themselves very highly, had to admit the strength of the empire at this time, and some of the awakened rib dynasties immediately went back to sleep.
In the real universe at this time, the empire has no rivals. As far as the eye can see, the terrifying enemies that once plagued the Empire now all seem to be old, weak, sick and disabled, and pose no threat to the Empire.
Once upon a time, when humanity was at its strongest, there was still a race of spirits in the galaxy that could be compared to humans. However, at this time, there is no race in the galaxy that can match the power of the Human Empire.
In the past, the human empire was repeatedly struck hard and slowly recovered, and each time the historical record was lost, contaminated, or rewritten by the victors, so that the general people of the empire did not know that thanks to the countless wars within the empire, there was a place for humanity to live in the vast stars.
But at this time, under Sivir's leadership, and with Terra's absolute control over the various imperial worlds, through propaganda, it is clear to every citizen of the empire that the supremacy of the human empire in the galaxy has been forged in the war with the orcs, and is more secure than ever.
Draw fire and cannonballs, carry banners and blades. With torches and guns, in the blazing furnace of war, the Empire will forge the iron will of a powerful race. Let the flames of battle temper humanity! Let the flames of war turn your enemies to ashes!
The Emperor and Sivir had already achieved a small part of their grand goals by this time, and this stage of victory alone had made the faith in them stronger than ever throughout the Empire.
Almost every citizen of the Empire, every warrior of the Empire, became a devout believer. The Emperor and the Son were worshipped throughout the empire.
And under the deliberate guidance of Sivir, this pious belief not only did not hinder the progress of science and technology and the development of society, but made all the people of the empire work hard for the empire under the same belief.
When an Empire's planetary governor is about to lose himself in the face of power and interests, his devotion to faith in the Emperor and the Son will awaken him instantly.
When an Imperial College student wants to indulge himself for a short time, his devotion to the Emperor and the Son will cause him to immediately return to his studies.
When a warrior loses the will to fight on the battlefield, his devotion to the Emperor and His Son will cause him to charge the enemy with a shout "For the Emperor".
The people of the empire all believed that the emperor and the Son were watching them at all times. Before any subject of the empire does anything, he must first consider the attitude of the emperor and the Holy Son towards this matter.
Bound by faith, everything in the empire is moving towards a near-perfect society.
