The corpses of the human soldiers killed in battle near the Doge's Palace have been collected, and the people here will forever remember the warriors who died defending against the alien invasion.

Saxton was deploying defenses in the command center inside the palace, and before landing, he had sent technical sergeants to repair the damaged high-altitude orbital birding array over the planet, and according to the detection signals, four targets were heading towards the planet.

According to the signal characteristics, Saxton was extremely sure that it was the rebellious Iron Warriors, the traitors who had been hiding in the Eye of Fear 10,000 years ago, although they didn't know which warband, but a company of Astartes should be enough to deal with it, and the traitors would be six hours away from arriving, which gave him enough time to build fortifications.

Saxton sent all his warriors out, and he decided to entertain the Chaos traitors who had turned their backs on humanity's greatness.

A tarantula turret had been set up in the best firing position, machine guns and laser cannons had been installed in bunkers, Saxton had even sent down a heavily armed Counter-Attack tank from the rails as a fulcrum of fire, a simple steel cage had been woven, and the Punishment strike cruiser had gone into the meteorite belt and hid in the meteorite belt, all waiting for the enemy to arrive.

Six hours later, the Iron Warriors' fleet leaped out of the system's Mandela Point on time, with two light cruisers and two frigates, and it seemed that it was only a small warband that received the signal.

As soon as they arrived in the sky above the planet, the two light cruisers immediately threw out multiple fear claws, dragging a long trajectory of fear claws and slamming them into the city, and dozens of Chaos Astartes with the Iron Warrior logo and yellow and black warning patterns walked out of the landing fear claws, led by a Chaos Fang Terminator.

Saxton was pretty sure it was a small warband, otherwise the leader couldn't have been just a fanged terminator, or even other Terminator guards.

The Chaos Lord led a whole group of Chaos Iron Warriors through the smoke from the impact of the Dreadclaws towards the Doge's Palace, which came to a halt after advancing some distance.

The Chaos Lord looked around, he had sensed something was wrong, a distress signal indicating that the place was under attack by the Dark Elve, but there were no gunshots or other sounds of fighting in the city, not even corpses. Either the Dark Elves have finished plundering, or it's a trap.

After a moment of scrutiny, the Chaos Lord chose to take a gamble, the planet was quite a good supply area, especially with a foundry, which was very precious to the Chaos Warband, who lacked equipment supplies in the Eye of Fear.

After making a decision, the team moved on, but at a slower and more cautious pace, but no matter how cautious it was, it could not avoid Saxton's ambush, and Saxton, who was once a war blacksmith, knew the tactics of the Iron Warriors well, and the traitors would never have detected the ambush in advance.

The traitors cautiously passed through the streets, and as they crossed an intersection, gunfire erupted, and the tarantula turrets in the outermost layer opened fire as soon as they detected Chaos Astarte, heavy explosives and twin lasers fired at the Iron Warriors.

"There is an ambush, brothers, a shield wall." The Chaos Lord uses the Power Gauntlet to block several heavy blast projectiles that shoot at the weak points of the Terminator's armor.

The battle-hardened Chaos Iron Warriors in the Eye of Fear moved quickly, quickly forming a shield wall one shield after another, and heavy explosive bombs hit the shield wall, causing the shields to crack continuously.

"Advance!" The Chaos Lord steered the shield array forward, while Chaos Iron Warrior, with a shield in one hand and a blaster in the other, continued to shoot at the tarantula turrets everywhere.

Just as the Chaos Warriors were about to completely destroy the fire web of the tarantula turrets, Saxton waved his hand, and the soldiers of the 4th Company of the Sword of Remonishment, who were hiding everywhere, jumped out of their hiding places and fired at the ring shield formation formed by Chaos Iron Warriors with the help of plastic steel bunkers.

"Replace the Lethal Strike Bomb." Saxton ordered that before coming to the planet, the War Blacksmith obtained a batch of lethal blast rounds from Loken, who was born as a Shadow Moon Wolf, and the MK.2 Kaul blaster rifle equipped by the original Astartes had a longer barrel and better fire persistence than the old blaster, and with the addition of the lethal blow blaster, Chaos Iron's shield was shot through one after another.

As a product of the Great Expedition more than 10,000 years ago, the MK.2 Expeditionary Power Armor's defense power was not as strong as the MK.4 produced later.

"Hateful pseudo-emperor!" The Chaos Lord scolded and began to retreat with his men, he judged that there were at least half a company of Puppet Emperor servants here, and his war gang could only retreat. As long as they are able to return to the Dreadclaw, the self-returning capsule will take them off the surface and back to the ship.

Seeing that the Chaos Wars began to retreat, Saxton led the warriors to pounce, and the Primordial Iron Warriors also formed a shield wall to advance towards the Chaos Warband's shield wall.

The Chaos Lord looked at the steel mask and warning pattern on the pseudo-emperor slave in front of him and was taken aback, "This is impossible! How can the Iron Warrior become a lackey of the Puppet Emperor! ”

“hold！” The Chaos Lord commanded, and the shield wall that had been retreating immediately stopped, and the two shield walls began to confront each other in both directions of the street.

The Chaos Lord walked to the front of the shield array and asked, "You are Iron Warriors. Whoever is your commander, come out to me. ”

Hearing the Chaos Lord's words, Saxton stepped forward, and the Primordial Iron Warriors automatically made way for him.

Seeing the company commander wearing a Hades-type terminator and a helmet in front of him, the Chaos Lord was furious, and the large, clear steel mask on the shoulder armor and the golden double-headed eagle on his chest proved that the person in front of him was a loyal Asterta.

"Take off your helmet and let me see what an Iron Warrior looks like who has taken refuge in the Puppet Emperor! What a coward. How do you still wear the emblem of the Iron Warrior! The Chaos Lord pointed at Saxton and scolded.

"Coward, heh, haha." A hoarse laugh came from the helmet, and Saxton removed it to reveal his face, and despite wearing a breathing mask, the Chaos Lord recognized him as he was.

"This can't be, it's you, Orrick Saxton, the war blacksmith who killed Idynam on Terra, how is it possible, how can an Astarte in the real universe live for 10,000 years!" The Chaos Lord looked at the familiar face in front of him in horror.
