Chapter 1043 - 1043 717 Chaos
?Chapter 1043: Chapter 717 Chaos Chapter 1043: Chapter 717 Chaos For Horus, this was a successful rebellion.
It should have been so.
He purged the Loyalist Faction within his legion on the planet of Istvan III, loyal to the Emperor, but what Horus hadn’t expected was that under the sudden protection of the Tribunal, the Loyalists evacuated and disappeared without a trace. Afterward, upon learning of Horus’s rebellion, Terra immediately ordered the Steel Warriors, Midnight Lords, Whisperers, Steel Hands, Fire Lizards, Shadow Crow Guard, and the Alpha Legion to move to the Istvan Star System to suppress the rebellion.
However, in reality, besides the Shadow Crow Guard, Steel Hands, and Fire Lizards, the other four legions had already secretly defected. Thus, when the three legions loyal to the Emperor landed on the planet Istvan V, they were greeted by a pincer move consisting of betrayal from their former allies and attacks from their enemies ahead.
The result was that the genetic prototypes of the Steel Hands and Fire Lizards were killed, the Shadow Crow Guard was missing, and the Loyalist Astarte Legions were severely weakened.
Horus was very pleased with this result, and now under his command were the Sons of Horus, Emperor’s Sons, World Eaters, Whisperers, Steel Warriors, Midnight Lords, Death Guard, and the Alpha Legion.
On the Imperial side, the majority of the Astarte’s main force had been redeployed away from Terra upon the War Marshal’s orders. According to Horus’s plan, the Limit Warriors were backstabbed by the Whisperers in the Kaus Star System, the Holy Blood Angels fell to the Obsessive Sin at Signus, the Space Wolves and Thousand Sons were fighting each other, and the White Scars were in chaos over whether to join Horus. This left only the Imperial Fist Rogal Dorn to defend Terra.
Additionally, with the rebellion of the Mars Mechanicum, the only real forces Terra could call upon were Imperial Fists and Imperial Guards, and at most the Silent Sisters. Horus mused that an eight to one fight was certainly a winning situation.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Logue returned with a sorrowful expression.
And then Horus was completely stunned.
“Say that again?”
Horus stared at Logue, his eyes nearly murderous—almost all of the Whisperers and World Eaters had been annihilated, three Abyssal-class battleships completely wrecked—Horus had plans to uphold these in the Solar System against Dorn’s Mountain Array, but now you’ve ruined them?
