It wasn't that hard, either

The adjutants jogged off to relay the orders, and the commanders of each ship were summoned to the conference hall. Dante also took out his communicator and contacted the Chapter Master of the various Successor Chapter of the Blood Angels.

Lin En sat at the table, pulled the holographic star map in front of him, and pondered the battle plan while waiting for everyone to gather.

Phoros stood beside him, handing him data. "Sir, the flagship information and firepower configurations of each squadron of the Solar Fleet have been transmitted."

"Read."

Phoros read out the points one by one, while Lin En listened and made marks on the star chart.

The Solar Fleet has 120 ships. Although they cannot board like the Astartes, their firepower is not weak.

The Solar Fleet's 120 ships, plus Astartes ' 50, totaling 170 ships, along with his support, were enough to rival Abaddon's fleet.

However, the two Gloriana on the other side are indeed troublesome.

Once a battleship reaches the level of the Gloriana, it becomes very difficult for other battleships to challenge it.

Forget it, there's not much to say anyway. Just say "strong bricks fly, learn in ten minutes," and then we're done.

The meeting room gradually filled up.

The commanders of the various squadrons of the Solar Fleet, the commanders of the various battle groups of the Blood Angels, the Lamenters Phoros, the Flesh Tearers Gabriel, and the Blood Knights Sentoyor sat on either side of the table.

The commanders of the various squadrons of the Solar Fleet sat in the left row, their rank insignia gleaming more and more brightly than the last.

"Under the emperor's feet" is a higher level than "nowhere else."

"Is everyone here? Let's begin when everyone is here."

"Hello everyone, I am Lin En. The Lord Regent has appointed me as the commander of the eastern edge defense line of the Solar System. It's okay if you don't recognize me, just know who I am. Without further ado, Abaddon is almost here. Let's discuss the defensive deployment of the eastern line."

Lin En sat in the main seat and opened the holographic star map in front of him.

The holographic star map lit up with a "hum," spreading out the outer reaches of the Solar System on the table.

The Solar System resembles a blue gem surrounded by red, green, and gold specks of light.

The golden dot at the very center represents the Astronomican and the Throne Room; the surrounding green represents their defensive forces, and the red surrounding the outermost layer represents the enemy.

The Red faction not only has Abaddon's Chaos army, but also a four-way coalition of Aeldari, T'au, Orks, and Necrons, surrounding the Solar System from all sides.

This scene is like playing a video game, but unfortunately there's no pause button or save function.

One wrong step could cost hundreds or even thousands of lives.

He took a deep breath, stood up, and slapped the edge of the star map. "Everyone, look here."

All eyes turned to them.

Lin En pointed to the star map. "I've decided to divide the eastern defenses into two lines. The inner line, General Aurelian's Solar Fleet, will establish a blocking line along the Oort Cloud. If any Chaos ships attempt to break through from the front, surround them immediately! The goal isn't to inflict casualties, but simply to delay them, to drag Abaddon's ships into the Oort Cloud, slowing their advance and preventing them from entering the Solar System, while we arrive to provide support."

"Yes!"

"On the outer flank, Lord Dante and I will lead the fleet to intercept the Chaos Fleet's attack. Abaddon might launch a feint attack, creating the illusion of attacks from multiple directions simultaneously, so we must maintain maximum mobility and quickly locate their true main attack direction."

"Yes!"

"The opposing force consists of a massive fleet of two Gloriana and three hundred warships. Everyone must fight with all their might and not let their guard down. Lord Calgar's fleet will arrive within three days, and the Macragge's Honour will also be here. As long as the defensive line doesn't collapse within three days, we are invincible."

The atmosphere in the meeting room momentarily froze.

Lin En knew what everyone was thinking.

They had fewer ships and smaller cannons than the enemy, and with two Gloriana as backup, it was normal for them to be nervous.

Lin En placed his hands on the table, leaned forward, and said sincerely, "As long as General Aurelian's Solar Fleet holds back the inner circle, Dante and I will engage Abaddon on the outer circle, while the Zerg swarm will wear them down. With a three-tiered setup—one layer to hold them off, one layer to wear them down, and one layer to whittle them down—it's actually not that difficult to defeat them."

Although their fleet numbers were vastly outnumbered by the opposing side.

Even with Brother Dun's two ships and Gloriana's army of three hundred ships, things are a bit difficult.

However, it wouldn't be out of the question if they wanted to fight back.

Dante nodded, stating first, "The Blood Angels will go all out."

He's truly his best son.

Lin En nodded. "Okay, we're going to win."

With the Vengeful Spirit, the Conqueror, the Planet Killer, and the Planet Fortress, this firepower configuration outside the defensive perimeter is like a sledgehammer aimed at the gate.

But that's alright, he's the anchor behind the door.

If Abaddon had the guts, he should have stepped over him and pushed him into the defensive perimeter.

Both the Vengeful Spirit and the Conqueror are now likely in a state where demons and ship hulls coexist.

When the Macragge's Honour arrived, he Weapon Enchantment its Macragge's Honour...

That damned devil ship is waiting.

Hopefully, it will really arrive in Calgar in three days.

Does anyone else have a question?

No.

OK.

Lin En stood up and slammed his hand on the table.

"Place the Purple Carapace Chapter at the forefront, and spread out the twelve Mothership ' Hive Fleet, patrolling outside the entire defensive perimeter. Engage the Chaos Fleet immediately upon encountering it! Annoy Abaddon and prevent him from spreading his army in all directions!"

"Combined Fleet, enter defensive formation!"

"Move! Form ranks! Prepare to engage the enemy!!"

*******

"Order the Third Fleet of the Solar Fleet to proceed to the first pivot point according to the commander's plan. All ships to start their Engine and warm up!"

"Attention all combat groups! Adjust your formation according to Lord Lin En's plan. The first Successor Chapter will move into the second pivot with the parent regiment. The third Successor Chapter will provide flank cover..."

"Remember our mission! We must keep Abaddon's three hundred ships completely out of the way!..."

Lin En's orders were given out noisily.

Captains shouted into the communicators, commissars ran around carrying Dataslate, and the Mortals crew members lit up the Engine and loaded ammunition.

The fleets dispersed and took their positions.

The outer reaches of the Solar System unfold like a large net.

The Solar Fleet's 120 Mortals warships formed three arc-shaped blocking lines along the inner edge of the Oort Cloud. Aurelian was stationed aboard the Spear of Terra, placing the flagship at the very front.

He led from the front; indeed, I knew I hadn't misjudged him.

They can hurl all sorts of insults at the Imperium's nobles and generals, but when it comes to backbone, they're all incredibly tough.

Thirty warships of the Blood Angels formed a mobile strike group, surrounding Lin En's fleet.

The Night Goddess was in the center, surrounded by the Battle Barge of the other Chapter.

The twelve Hive Ship deployed into a ring-shaped defensive formation, surrounding the outermost edge of the defensive line.

A colossal biological vessel with a colorful shell roams the void outside the Solar System.

This time, it really is like Xenos guarding the country's borders.

Lin En changed into his Power Armor and carefully put away his beloved little sunglasses.

It's kind of funny to think about the Hive Ship. Aurelian was incredibly nervous when he first actually saw twelve Hive Ship flying over.

Their Solar Fleet is stationed on Terra; they've never even seen a real Tyranids before.

Moreover, the evolved Tyranids Mothership.

The sense of oppression was really strong.

Lin En laughed and joked with him, "What? Discriminating against our Purple Carapace Chapter? Our Purple Carapace Chapter is a legitimate Imperium loyalist Chapter, with Imperial Navy numbers."

"No, no!!! Lord Lin En, I didn't mean any discrimination! I just..." Aurelian said, embarrassed.

Dante laughed loudly.
