Chapter 136

The two battalions marched side by side along the wide avenue. On the right side of the queue was the star knight, and on the left was the ascetic.

The servants of other legions followed, followed by machine servants and slave workers, and the bronze bells on both sides of the wide avenue sounded with the soldiers' steps

"The last time I went with other regiments was almost a hundred years ago."

Mazar not only sighed that he was walking side by side with soshyan empty handed, but his terrible sickle was handed over to the servants.

"We are all scattered among the stars."

They walked side by side at the front of the queue, and the flag of the regiment held high behind them cast a shadow over them.

"It's my honor to walk with a hero like you."

Soshyan said cautiously that this was the first time he had presided over a ceremonial activity as a war leader. It was impossible to say that he had no fluctuation in his heart.

"I hope you will tell me more about what happened in the Vida system."

"I will."

"I heard that the aliens you attacked were space dead?"

"Yes, it is those soulless machines that drive a crazy war fortress called the world engine, trying to destroy the whole galaxy."

Mazar suddenly glanced at sol wearing a helmet. This ordinary looking soldier always gave him a strange illusion.

The sword on his waist could threaten his neck at any distance.

Although it is still contained in the sheath.

"At that time, more than a dozen battle groups were concentrated?"

Mazar looked back. He hoped he was distracted.

"Yes."

Soshyan nodded.

"Including the extreme soldiers, they sent an entire seven companies."

"Then why is it such a painful ending?"

"Because at that time, there was no means to end the world engine, or we have tried all means. The only way was to sacrifice the flagship storm of the regiment."

With that, the team came to the mourning hall of the monastery fortress. At the far end of the hall, there stood a black monument.

This monument is as like as two peas of the Vinda galaxy, which is made by the designers of the Soviet Union, which is almost identical to the shape of the craftsmen, except for the decoration made by the dead remains.

"Did you make this decision?"

"Yes, it's the plan he implemented against all opinions."

In front of the black monument, Mazar raised his head and looked at the engraved numbers and lines of names. 771 star soldiers were buried in the cold void.

"What's his name?"

"Amurad."

"Amurad, I'll remember."

In front of the black monument, the solemn atmosphere spread. All star soldiers took off their helmets, held their right fist in front of their chest and buried their noble heads deeply.

Everyone, regardless of their status and rank, is remembering these lost imperial heroes.

It was they who burned themselves that gave mankind a glimmer of light and hope in the dark Milky way.

"The name of a hero should not die."

Ten minutes later, Mazar raised his head again and looked at soshyan.

"You have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders. Although I know that in such a bad situation, the vast majority of combat groups will inevitably perish. I can see that you have been trying to recover all this."

"I vowed never to let the flag of the regiment fall."

"In fact, we have encountered the same situation as you."

At this point, Mazar's tone suddenly became heavy.

"In m41.820, our regiment met the remnants of the behmos insect nest fleet of tyron's alien in the void. In order to eliminate this alien, I led the regiment to land on their insect nest mother ship."

Hearing this, several veterans accompanying him looked painful on their faces.

"It was a cruel and bloody battle. We knew too little about the Tara Zerg and their nest mother ship. The complex terrain and endless hatcheries made us suffer huge losses."

The words of the imperial hero were mixed with regret.

"Although we finally killed it, the death rate of the whole regiment was close to 90%, and more than half of the company members died in battle... They were trained by me bit by bit since they were transformed. It's not too much to say that they are my children."

Soshyan suddenly noticed that the imperial hero was no longer the soldier who kept high morale at any time. He was more like a sad old man.

At this time, the traces of years finally appeared on the head of Mazar war, which was a kind of vicissitudes and sadness deep into the soul.

Soshyan didn't know what to say for a moment.

Fortunately, Lord Mazar immediately cleaned up his emotions.

"If there were not a group of recruits on the mother planet and the genetic seeds accumulated over the years, we might not get up in another 100 years, but even so, until now, we only have more than 500 soldiers, restoring half of our strength."

As an ancient battle group in the era of the second army building, the bitter Walker Battle Group naturally has much thicker details than the star knights, but such a blow can only be accepted once.

"So... I fully understand your determination and difficulties in rebuilding the regiment."

"Nathan IV is a good planet. I am confident to let the flag of the regiment fly again in the void and continue to fight for the emperor."

"Yes, that's the momentum."

Lord Mazar smiled heartily.

The procession then crossed the mourning hall and moved towards the assembly hall, where the servants had prepared the astates' banquet.

Entering the corridor connecting the two peaks, Lord Mazar looked ahead at the Abbey castle and the towering church.

"What a spectacular place."

He couldn't help exclaiming.

"You haven't been here long? These achievements are amazing. I hope you will take me on a tour."

"Of course."

Then soshyan delayed the banquet and took Lord Mazar around the monastery fortress. In the process, the two had a close conversation.

However, it did not involve too many foreign affairs or missions of the regiment. They mostly talked about their own experiences - mainly the Lord Mazar said that soshyan was a listener.

He was grateful to the imperial hero for sharing his knowledge and experience with him, especially about the alien tyron.

Soshyan has fought with green skin, space dead, and even ADA, but the Talon Zerg is an enemy he has never been masked.

The earliest record of the tyron Zerg appeared in m41.735. When the imperial explorers carried out the usual planetary census, they found that some life in the world suddenly disappeared at the edge of the star region in the east of the Milky way. There is no theory to explain why the vibrant world originally inhabited with animals and plants has suddenly become a barren boulder.

When time came to m41.745, the outpost of the Talon system in the Eastern Star region began to be attacked by some unknown alien race.

Within a few days, Taran's main star and its heavily guarded outpost were completely destroyed. The first recorded contact between the Empire and the Zerg took place. They are named after the Taran galaxy where they were found, which is called the Taran Zerg.
