At this time, Angron interjected, "Since the super-heavy weapons cannot be used and the portal capacity is limited, local production will also take some time... We can only use another way to launch a fierce attack on the enemy. They have accumulated more and more souls. Once the souls are full, they can use the powerful Wild Magic. We must be sufficiently vigilant against Wild Magic, which is very likely to harm us."

"Yeah... time waits for no one..." Leman Russ also agreed with Angron's view, and then the three Primarchs who communicated shut up at the same time. Their silence made Space Marines who was guarding here a little nervous.

Then, just like a test to see if other brothers can communicate with themselves, each of them only said one sentence until they stated their complete thoughts.

"Concentrate elite troops, weapons and ammunition..."

"Assault forward as quickly as possible..."

"To end the enemy's hopes before their plans are completed..."

"Hahahaha..."

The three Primarchs laughed in unison and praised each other for their surprisingly unanimous ideas.

Then Angron expressed his position first and said, "I will concentrate the resources from the rear and transport them forward. It is estimated that they will be delivered to you in four days."

Leman Russ said, "I will gather the elite and armored forces of the frontline troops, let the remaining troops shrink the defense line, and retreat all the way Imperial Administrative Zone to prepare for the enemy's possible counterattack."

"And I." Magnus raised his voice, "I will teach each Space Marines the secret of using magic, so that they can still fight against the enemy even when they are unarmed."

"Magic..." Regarding this point, Leman Russ maintained a cautious attitude, "We should ask the Emperor for his opinion first. Although these magics are essentially different from psychic powers, they are still a dangerous and difficult to control force."

"The Emperor will definitely object." Angron curled his lips, he didn't have any hope for this.

But a report was sent to the Emperor through the portal. The ruler of Imperium of Man and the father of Primarch had only one reply.

"Space Marines is not allowed to use magic."

"Tsk... what do you think this means?" Magnus, who was hung on Leman Russ's waist, asked. He was puzzled. He just didn't understand why the Emperor restricted Space Marines from using magic and relaxed the requirements for mortals.

"Sometimes having too many questions is not a good thing." Leman Russ answered his brother. In front of him, gathered the best part of Imperium of Man who had entered the army in the past few months.

There are as many as 250,000 Space Marines, World Eaters and Space Wolves Legion entering the portal, and there are more than 5,000 various armored vehicles prepared for them. Such a huge military force, let alone conquering the world, can even defeat a Xenos civilization that occupies the star field.

It's a pity that such a powerful team is trapped by supplies. Even if they use Chainsword and combat daggers to solve the problem as much as possible under the orders of Leman Russ, the bullets in Bolter are getting less and less.

Generally, in order to meet the material needs of such a large army, Imperium of Man will concentrate its material resources to transform some worlds into supply worlds. The land and people of the entire planet work hard just for the task of managing, storing, and transporting Space Marines army supplies.

Millions of sets of Power Armour and astronomical amounts of ammunition and supporting equipment were filled into a transport ship parked at the orbital port, and then given to those legions temporarily docked near the supply world.

It is conceivable how exaggerated it is when all these supply pressures are piled on that pitiful portal, which is narrower than a battleship. Maintaining the current supply efficiency is already the best result achieved by the Great Sage after burning several supercomputing chips.

After urgently gathering supplies, they assembled a rapid assault force that was expected to be able to fight at high intensity for a week. After loading them all into armored vehicles, Leman Russ allowed 20,000 Space Marines to rush back from the front line to the administrative hall of Angron, and use their firepower to burn 10,000 square kilometers of land to ashes.

He is not going to carry the remaining Space Marines Leman Russ. He wants these Space Marines without ammunition, only a combat dagger and Power Armour to return to Imperial Administrative Zone to defend, instead of continuing to move forward with them.

Next to the huge queue of Space Marines, there are half a million mechanized Imperium auxiliary troops. They carry cannons that can be easily towed away by armored vehicles. They carry some combat rations, high-pressure water bottles, rechargeable laser batteries and a brave heart to accompany Leman Russ to complete this assault that can almost be said to span the entire continent.

Of course, these Imperium auxiliary troops also received urgent magic teaching. A considerable number of them can use second-level and even third-level magic. Especially the medical soldiers, who are as proficient in using healing magic as veterans who have been immersed in the art of magic for decades.

Before the assault began, Leman Russ delivered a brief but passionate speech to the entire army.

"Fighters of Imperium, along the way, we have used the weapons in our hands to eliminate countless Xenos and deformed Abhumans that threaten the status of human existence! When besieging the capital of these beasts, you have also seen countless dead rushing toward us under the control of disgusting bugs. This should be over now. We have found out where the culprit is that caused all this. He is hiding thousands of kilometers away from our front line and can only be seen after climbing over the towering mountains. Far East arrived! There, he was preparing to perform evil witchcraft using his soul as raw material! The ruler of Imperium of Man, the Emperor, has lowered his anger. He will never allow such a filthy and evil existence to tarnish this destined property. On human land! We will attack forward without any delay or entanglement with the enemies on the road! We have no supply lines, we only have the determination to crush the enemy's heart! In the name of the Emperor, kill all Xenos!"

"Long live the Emperor!!!"

The response to Leman Russ was the roar of mountains and tsunamis. Primarchs didn't waste any more words. With a wave of his hand, he ordered the army to charge forward at full speed. The remaining people relied on their legs to rush all the way to Imperial Administrative Zone.

The armored vehicles merged into a river made of iron, rolling forward unstoppably. The tracks ran over the dry land, and dust flew into the sky, forming a man-made sandstorm more than a hundred meters high and thousands of meters wide.

But in this land that has been contaminated by parasites, no one can marvel at the scene in front of them.

The Imperial Army regiment kept moving forward, always moving forward. They had no pity for the vegetation on the road. When they encountered some dense woodland, they just fired a few rounds of Hellfire missile, and the remaining vehicles passed quickly through the burning ashes.

When encountering panicked wild animals and uncivilized monsters that didn't even know how to escape, the torrent of steel from the Imperial Army group just crushed them mercilessly, leaving blood-red traces on the ground.

"Sir! A city has appeared in front of you! Do you want to hit it directly?"

"No, save your ammunition, there are just some bugs in the city, just leave it to me."

Leman Russ jumped out of Spartan Assault Tank. Only this special model of heavy transport tank had enough space for Primarchs to sit down comfortably. The interior space of the remaining armored vehicles was too narrow, so Leman Russ had to bend down and lower his head.

Then Leman Russ rushed out. He ran past all the armored vehicles on his two legs, and then rushed towards the city in the distance.

When the city walls collapsed, the front line of the assault corps was still about three kilometers away.

"Keep moving forward! Never stop!"

In the bloody road fought by Leman Russ alone, armored vehicles traveling at full speed continued to pour in.

At this time, Ainz had just used the gold coins of Great Tomb to revive Demiurge again.
