After several months of continuous combat in the Koplu Star Sector, the expeditionary force finally came to a temporary standstill, although with support from the cyberpunk world and the MUV world, the space marines will not get tired easily, but the auxiliary forces will always be tired, and the fleet needs to be maintained.

While Horus's flagship, the Angel's Tears, is self-sustaining enough to keep the ship running for years, the smaller frigates and light cruisers need to be maintained, especially if a space battle between Sigma Sector and Tadarin resulted in damage to the ship.

After Valerian took control of the Tyranid Empire, the expeditionary force was finally able to settle on the surface, and while the starry sky was unmistakable, it was more comfortable to be grounded.

Valhalla, the secret military weapons research facility that once produced the Odin and Vulcan battlecruisers, became a temporary home for the expeditionary force.

Although Odin, who was manipulated by Tykes, was demolished and the entire facility was smashed to pieces, the remaining factories and equipment were enough for the expeditionary force.

The equipment and materials originally used to research and build the Vulcan battlecruiser were used to repair the damaged frigates, and the remaining parts for the manufacture of Odin were collected by the priests of the Mechanic Order into various spare parts.

Here, all the warriors of the expeditionary force were repaired, and at the same time, Horus developed and announced his new military reform plan, namely the creation of the Space Marine Warband.

Originally, the establishment of only at the tactical company level was no longer enough to support the existing command system of the Space Marines, so it was imperative to establish a Star Marine wargroup, and at the same time, Horus also had plans to expand the army.

Of course, the wargroup set up by Horus is different from the Astarte Holy Canon Wargroup in Kiliman, and the starmarines set up by Horus have a strength of about 3,000 to 5,000, and they must be equipped with tens of thousands of interstellar auxiliaries equipped with CMC power armor.

The Astarte Warband was an emasculated military organization, the Canon Warband lacked sufficient capital ships and heavy equipment, while the Warband of Horus was conceived to have at least one battleship-class flagship and an entire cruiser fleet.

The first batch of warbands was established, the Storm Wolfhound Warband with War Dogs as the mainstay, the Iron Heart Warband with Iron Warriors as the main Warband, the Dusk Raiders Warband with the Death Guards as the main Warband, and the Fire Phoenix Warband with the Emperor's Son as the main warband. It is expected that there will be at least 12,000 Naruto Space Marines and hundreds of thousands of auxiliary troops each in the future, and this is only a short-term expansion goal, and in the longer term, Horus wants to rebuild all six legions.

The commander of each war group is the company commander before the reorganization, but Chiko still hasn't established a company, let alone a war group. Out of caution about the curse of the scarlet letter, Ignis didn't even recruit new recruits in the MUV world.

It was only now that the think tanks of the Thousand Sons selected the best of the psionic people of the Tyranid Empire to test their recruits, and the number of people was too scarce for the Thousand Sons to even form a tactical company.

Without the overly active subspace influence of the Warhammer world, the security of the spells cast by the Thousand Sons Think Tank has greatly increased, and although the power has decreased somewhat, Ignis can still feel the slight link of the scarlet letter spell.

Just after Horus unveiled his plans for expansion, Soltawitz raised some objections.

"We don't have enough people right now to assemble your warband, my lord." Thor was a little apprehensive about Horus's thoughts, as there were only about a thousand Space Marines of all genes, not even half of the preset number. ”

"I'm well aware of your thoughts, Thor, but we must quickly expand the military strength of the expeditionary force." Horus said in a firm tone, "Our enemies are not something that the existing forces can deal with, and we must expand our forces to defeat them." ”

"But there are many difficulties in rapidly expanding the number of Space Marines, especially the lack of enough genetic seeds and equipment ......," Thor said.

"Don't worry about this problem, I will let the Great Sage of Cleixis solve this problem, the technology of the Mechanical Order is enough to quickly breed genetic seeds, as for the equipment...... Our new allies through the exchange of technology should be willing to help us in this regard. ”

Seeing that Horus had made up his mind, Thor didn't say anything anymore, Thor was very understandable, if the expeditionary force expanded on a large scale, it would inevitably greatly affect the recovery and development of the two worlds that had not been ruled by the expeditionary force for a long time, especially the MUV world, thirty years was not enough time to heal the wounds suffered by humanity during the BETA war. And the tilt of productivity towards space marines will also slow down the construction of the space fleet.

But he didn't know that the future expeditionary force would face the enemy, Emon's hands were endless swarms, as well as those who threw themselves to the Morbius Foundation of the Dark God and the Dharam Star Spirit that would inevitably be corrupted by Emon, these enemies were already difficult to deal with, plus Aemon could use the void energy to pinch out of thin air, the military strength of the two sides was completely inferior to Horus, and finally Kerrigan defeated the god Aemond will inevitably send his lackeys to intervene, and it takes a strong army to protect Kerrigan under the attack of the Wave Class. Although Horus had expected it, the disparity was still worrying him.

Therefore, while Aemon was still weak, Horus had to forcibly expand his army in order to close this gap, and the smaller the gap between them, the smaller the losses of the expeditionary force.

After deciding to expand the army, the second thing Horus did was to strengthen his allies, the Tyranid Empire has been ruled by Valerian, and the expeditionary force is constantly handing over some appropriate technology to the Tyranid Empire, and presumably the Empire's fleet will be willing to fight for the creatures of the Koplu Star Zone, and the rest is the problem of Kerrigan.

Although Kerrigan has been selected as a candidate to be promoted to Sarnagar, she is not currently eligible to inherit the power of Aurus. Although she has a pure spirit, her body is still tainted by Aemon, and she must travel to Zerus, the birthplace of the swarm, to obtain the power of the native swarm, the oldest power from Zerus, which is enough for Kerrigan to elevate her body to the level of pure form.

But now, the empress was kissing me and me with her little lover Renaud, and Horus had to kindly remind her.

"Climb aboard my flagship, and take your lover, Ms. Kerrigan, it's time for us to get ahead of the plan."

"Where are we going?" Holding Renault's hand, Kerrigan asked.

"Zerus, the birthplace of the swarm."
