Chapter 588 Legion, Dead Man, Rose Knot

"Tindalos is fine!"

The general, wearing a black uniform in the style of the Inquisition, stood up and answered Calvin's question after saluting everyone.

"Very good, sit down!"

Calvin nodded, and the latter sat down neatly in the eyes of everyone.

Black uniform, golden eagle emblem, sword emblem; major general rank, leather coat made of synthetic fiber, scarlet and gold hatband on the wide-brimmed military cap;

And the most eye-catching rose knot hanging on the second button on his chest.

Moir, the representative of the Star Army sitting opposite, was obviously a lieutenant general, but the look he gave the major general representative of the Tindalos Legion was full of fear!

The people who know you best are always your peers, and as auxiliary troops, this direct thug of the Inquisition is undoubtedly a strong contrast and reference for their future operations.

Feeling the gaze from the other side, the major general raised his head and looked straight at the owner of the gaze. After seeing the owner of the gaze, he smiled silently at the other side in accordance with the usual style of the Tindalos Legion, which is also the style of all the auxiliary troops of the Inquisition.

"Bad luck!"

Looking at the eight white teeth reflecting light on the other side, Lieutenant General Moore shuddered fiercely, and then looked away in embarrassment.

He was also a veteran, but he still couldn't stand the smell of death that was about to overflow from the other side!

Yes! It was the smell of death!

Just like all the direct troops following the Inquisitor that he had seen!

This group of people called the Tindalos Legion attracted Lieutenant General Moore's instinctive attention as soon as they appeared in the starport!

Mark V shotgun, the officer guards also carry this kind of thing, which can only mean that their headquarters are often placed at the front of the trench!

Greya heavy hell laser gun! This is a rare item that can suppress light armored units with a volley of more than five soldiers. It is expensive, and there is nothing wrong with it!

The equipment is simple, and the power battery pack is also modularly arranged. It is not picky about energy. Even in extreme cases, it can be charged by throwing it into the fire!

On the Ophelia III tactical backpack, three offensive infantry grenades and an incendiary bomb jingled in the collision.

Moore has never been to the Storm Star Region, so he naturally doesn't know how expensive the fiber of this equipment is, but just from its thinness without much anti-wear thickening layer, you can smell the unique "money" smell of high-grade materials!

And including officers, all personnel are equipped with carapace vests and shoulder guards under the black military coats, and the ceramic boots on their legs reflect the metallic luster.

Even the Military Affairs Department Mark III power sword swaying on the waist of the sergeant, scratched by the metal armed belt!

It even made him mistakenly think that this was a Storm Guard belonging to a high-level judge!

And if on the basis of these equipment, add the tower-shaped steel helmets and gas masks worn on their heads, which have no gaps at all.

Then, Moore can roughly conclude that this is a very special army!

It is either a newly promoted noble with a deep background and strong financial resources, and has just allocated resources to form a young master's army;

Or it is a secret armed force under the command of a certain old and powerful department, which is used to fighting in a hellish environment!

But it can't be the former!

Because the equipment and weapons on those soldiers are not something that a recruit without war experience can play through!

And seemingly relaxed, but always inadvertently reveal a trace of vigilance in their eyes, and even if they walk in a safe area, they still keep one hand hanging on the gun at all times, which severely betrays their identity!

This is a pure veteran army, and without exception, they are all guys who crawled out of the pile of dead bodies!

Moore was shocked at the time, because all the members are veterans, and they have enough tacit understanding under the complete system. This is definitely not the treatment that ordinary star legions can have!

With the virtue of the Military Command, a Star Army that has experienced a high-intensity war, after the loss exceeds 10%, there may be a newly appointed grandfather who will be kind enough to give them reinforcements according to the battlefield position at that time;

But if the legion's organizational loss exceeds 30%, then there is only one fate waiting for them-to merge and reorganize with other legions with serious losses, and there will be no consideration of the source of troops and equipment characteristics!

As for recruiting soldiers according to the source of the legion, or replenishing equipment according to the missing list, don't even think about it!

Because according to the empire's territory and transportation efficiency, even if this batch of veterans are over-served (in fact, there is no service period at all, but there is a classification after the overall soldier age assessment), they have missed their physiological prime, and the ships transporting soldiers from the rear may not arrive on time!

So in the eyes of people like Moore who have been in the Star Army for most of his life, when a legion has all veterans, complete equipment, extremely high tactical quality and tacit understanding at the same time.

That usually means that this is not a Star Army Corps that was recruited in a normal batch.

There are only a few such corps in the Star Army and they are extremely rare.

They were probably because of a battle that covered their home planet, and all the young and middle-aged population were simply assigned to the Astra Militarum by taking the entire planet as a unit!

Dead Soldiers! This is what the Astra Militarum calls them, because their home planets have either been destroyed in the war or are waiting to be destroyed.

Even if they can be rebuilt after the war, the relocated population will have no cultural and historical heritage with them.

Without the continuation of life, there is no historical heritage. So the combat upper limit of this group of soldiers is extremely high, and the lower limit is extremely low!

They are either constantly being treated as consumables, disappearing in a long battle, and then disappearing completely one day, or simply rebelling against the empire.

Or, like now, under the gathering of a powerful person, a very small number of elites among the elites are transferred out of the legion; after getting rid of the original fate of extinction, they become a force between the imperial soldiers and private armed forces that belongs exclusively to the Inquisitor or a certain bishop!

As for the Legion of Atonement?

This idea just flashed through More's mind, and he subconsciously rejected it.

The morale of the Redemption Corps can reach or even exceed this level.

But because of their morale, the war damage caused by excessive enthusiasm will essentially contradict combat experience and personnel tacit understanding.

More had never seen an armed force of this nature with a legion-sized structure; he had never thought that one day he would fight side by side with such an army that had no concept of sacrifice when fighting, and would only run towards death in silence!

But the facts were in front of him, and he couldn't help but refute or escape.

The smell of these soldiers was too strong, and there were corresponding details on their clothes to prove More's guess!

Not one, not a few, but all soldiers and officers.

He did not see any personal ornaments and equipment on the chests and collar badges of the other team members;

And on the badge of the major general who was in the lead, which should have been marked with his personal name, there was only a simple but eye-catching number-11-25!

The 11th Legion of Tindalos, the 2nd Commander (Commissar), the 5th!

This is all the information about 1125 from the list of participants that Mor got before the meeting.

Judging from this information and the temperament of those soldiers, he can only draw an outrageous conclusion:

The Inquisition has so much money that it can't be burned out!

How can this be a Star Legion? This is the ultimate enlarged version of the Storm Guard!

And thinking that in the future battles, he will fight side by side with this group of lunatics from the Loyalty Academy, and because of the relationship with the Primarch, they will have to obey the orders of these people to a considerable extent!

Lieutenant General Mor, who has always maintained a considerable degree of independence in the Gothic Sector, couldn't help but feel heartbroken for himself and his colleagues behind him!

"Emperor, people are going to die..." Mor muttered.
