As Li Feng helped the Custodian Guard in front of him up from the ground, Li Feng asked with a bit of embarrassment, as he still didn't know the name of this very proactive Custodian Guard.
"Uh... I still don't know your name?"
Little Kitten was puzzled; it was rare for someone to make such a request these days. Custodian Guards add the name of the battle location after each battle, so the older and longer-serving a Custodian Guard is, the longer their name becomes.
Similar to: Mihail Dimitri Margaret Knel Leopold Blanca Carol Ivan Ignis Rafael Maria Nikita Ya Shiragi.
Or: Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz Picasso.
"His name is Little Kitten," Celestine said from the side at this moment. (Try adding another paragraph comment)
"That's just a nickname my Lord gave me; my real name is..."
Li Feng suddenly realized; he had been wondering who this "submissive"-sounding person was! So it was... "So you're the T'au Commander Shiinyang's..."
Suddenly, Little Kitten bristled like a cat, immediately pouncing to cover Li Feng's mouth... "Sir, please... no... this is a secret."
The few people nearby who heard Li Feng and Little Kitten's conversation dared not make a sound. Only Azrael and Asmodai of the Dark Angels heard the key word:
"Secret? What secret! The Dark Angels have no secrets!"
Of course, no one paid attention to their whispers at this moment; your secrets are already well-known. Little Kitten quickly said:
"Sir, let's depart quickly. If you wish to bring your forces, that's fine too... We will now proceed to Terra to pay our respects."
Upon hearing that they would accompany Li Feng and the Custodian Guards to Terra, the Soldiers under Li Feng's command all took a deep breath. In the Imperium of Man, not everyone can go to Terra. Even the most fanatical pilgrims spend their entire lives stuck on the road to pilgrimage to Terra.
Ultimately, those who truly enter Terra and set foot on its surface are few and far between. Not to mention military personnel; it's difficult even to enter the Segmentum Solar.
However... even with this olive branch extended, they couldn't follow Li Feng. This "cannon fodder regiment," formed due to an emergency, had completed its historical mission. Now it was time for them to go their separate ways and return home.
The only proof of their unit's existence was the hanging corpse of Savan, the crimson medals and commemorations on their uniforms, and the history and stories of "crossing the Frax River four times to launch a surprise attack" with Li Feng.
At this moment, Li Feng looked at the unconscious Inquisitor Grendyl on the ground, waved his hand, and told the Inquisitor's assistants to take him away. Little Kitten glanced at Grendyl being led away and then asked:
"Sir, do you need to...?"
"No need, he's not a bad person. And he's very upright; for an Inquisitor, this is a good performance."
...Since the enemy leader, Bishop Savan, had been executed, the subsequent battles were all clean-up operations. Although the rebels' resistance was still very stubborn, with such a large deployment of Imperial forces, the rebel front lines began to retreat step by step.
At the same time, news spread that after Savan's death, Deacon Mammon, Frax's second-in-command, and the entire Frax Fortress were wiped off the map due to an unknown Warp energy explosion.
The entire Frax rebellion was now leaderless, forced to fight individually. According to the command's estimate, it would take about two years to clear the rebels from the entire planet's surface and fifteen years to re-colonize the planet.
Li Feng had already boarded the transport plane with Little Kitten and Celestine. Li Feng's "cannon fodder regiment" dispersed like ash, with a large number of Soldiers returning to their units, as the Imperial military system's planning ultimately adheres to "different environments nurture different people."
The Valhallans returned to the Valhalla forces, the Cadians returned to the Cadian Forces... Li Feng stepped onto the transport plane's ramp, looking back. He had emerged from the crashed valkyrie alone, and now, having achieved success, he was still alone.
However, what Li Feng didn't know was that these Soldiers, upon returning to their units, would act like seeds, injecting new vitality into armies whose tactical thinking was stuck in World War I... "Outflanking is not retreating, but seeking a greater opportunity!"
"Armor should cleave in like a wedge, and infantry should rapidly expand the front line."
"Multiple points of penetration, segmented encirclement."
"Battlefield communication must be ensured; a force without information is like a blind man leading a group of blind men."
Li Feng entered the hatch, and at this moment, a group of Battle Sisters also walked in... And this small squad, led by Grand Sister Margaret... "You all? Grand Nun, weren't you still supposed to be on a mission on Frax?"
Margaret was very embarrassed at this moment. She looked at Celestine on the other side, who was surrounded by a group of Battle Sisters asking for autographs:
"The Living Saint said she temporarily reassigned us to be your guards... so..."
Before Margaret could finish speaking, a Sister wearing power armour pounced on her. Fides had already planned it; she had actively sought out Celestine, hoping to become Li Feng's personal guard Sister.
Fides didn't know why the Living Saint had shown a playful smile at the time, but Celestine readily agreed, as Frax no longer needed Battle Sisters. There were Ultramarines, Dark Angels, Claws of the Stars... these large Space Marine Chapters. The upcoming battles would be overwhelming.
And Li Feng finally had time to look at the achievements he had gained on his panel from commanding battles during this period... "Congratulations on successfully commanding a battle worthy of being recorded in history. Reward: 'Iron Will.' The commanded forces will have 'Morale +100%,' 'Organization +75%,' 'Movement Speed +35%.'"
As the transport plane took off and gradually ascended into the sky, the generals and Soldiers below watched them depart. The next second, everyone's eyes turned to the "codex police" Leandros.
Leandros knew he was finished... Huron jumped down from the podium and slowly walked towards him. Azrael and Asmodai, two terrifying figures from the other side, also gradually surrounded him.
Leandros felt a bad premonition at this moment. Looking at Titus on the podium, Titus sighed... "The codex astartes is a set of rules. It guides us, shapes us into warriors, and teaches us the importance of upholding duty and honor above all else. But how we truly become a warrior, that is the challenge... And you failed."
Watching Leandros gradually being surrounded by the Dark Angels and the Claws of the Stars, Titus and the other Ultramarines of the Second Company turned around... leaving a message:
"They won't kill you, because they won't betray their comrades or stab their brothers in the back... I hope that tomorrow, bruised and battered, you will submit a report to my desk requesting transfer to the Deathwatch."
Looking at his "comrades" gradually walking away, he knew what his mistake was. If he had continued to be the "codex police" among the warriors, everyone would at most have been a little annoyed but still considered him a comrade.
But this time, he had brought an Inquisitor and betrayed all his Space Marine brothers who had fought alongside him to outsiders. The nature of this was completely different.
Leandros watched Huron walk up to him. Huron reached out, grabbed Leandros's armour, and then raised his clenched fist.
"You heard all that, kid, so now... brace yourself!"
