Jaghatai looked through the porthole with flickering eyes at Planet shrouded in Chaos's fog below, and then rejected Juba's request.

It was not his style to sit back and direct. He wanted to go down and see for himself what was going on.

See what made his Falcons disappear without a trace.

And Jaghatai also believes that Juba is worthy of his trust.

Just like Guilliman believes in his Gene-sons Calgar.

Even after his disappearance for tens of thousands of years, the White Scarss are still operating very well, which is enough to prove the loyalty and ability of any Great Khans.

No one can stop Jaghatai's decision.

Whether it is the legion veterans who returned with Khan or these Chapter Progeny who have only gotten along with their Gene-Father for a short time, they all believe in the power of Primarch.

Following the order of Jaghatai, the fleet no longer simply releases Reconnaissance Force.

Unable to see the specific situation on the ground, the fleet adjusted its position, and then the overwhelming Orbital Strike bombarded another area selected as a landing site.

The Tech-Priest and Techmarine bring back the Khan from the Webway, the Stormbird from the Battle Barge, and the Transport Ship from the Hangar of the Battle Barge.

Although the White Scarss have long lost the complement of these rare carriers, the Chapters of Progenys have also long since lost the combat plans to coordinate with these vehicles.

But the tens of thousands of White Scars warriors who followed Khan back are no strangers to these equipment.

Khan's personal expedition is of great significance, which makes all Progeny feel that Primarch attaches great importance to them and pays attention to them.

A batch of Stormraven Gunship with Salamanders insignia still remaining on the body was released, and they will land together with a batch of armed Drop Pod loaded with Autocannon.

Each Stormraven Gunship is loaded with a Arbiter Assault Squad and Fire Support Squad.

Many of these soldiers are equipped with replacement parts of the MK6.7.8 armor, and a hint of green can still be seen in the white paint of many armors.

And different from the regular White Scars style, almost all of these groups are equipped with Promethium Burner which has the characteristics of Salamanders.

The equipment supported by Vulkan has obvious characteristics.

These Stormraven from Salamanders are also different from other Imperium Forge World equipment. Salamanders even loaded a lot of Hellfire Incendiary Bomb for these fighters.

As the airborne landing began, these soldiers first passed through the cover of the Chaos barrier, and then arrived at the landing zone and stayed in place.

Subsequent large-scale landing troops will arrive soon.

Among all the fully loaded vehicles, one Stormbird was filled with Khan's personal guards, which was a whole Great Company's Storm Guard.

These one hundred glorious warriors will be responsible for protecting Khan.

A large number of equipment Drop Pod loaded with Attack Bike and Land Speeder will follow thirty Thunderhawk Transporter carrying Rhino filled with White Scars fighters directly from orbit to the surface.

After Stormbird and Thunderhawk Transporter passed through the Chaos barrier that shrouded the surface of Planet and was almost impossible to dispel.

Jaghatai Khan immediately felt the stickiness in the air.

Everything here is full of morbidity.

Passing through the thick Chaos fog that had been shrouding the sky, everyone could clearly see the large flat land Orbital Strike formed on the ground.

The rolling flames have been extinguished.

But the power of Chaos, filled with blasphemy, is surging on the ground.

The broken earth is mixed with many fine glass-like substances that reflect a strange light.

The twisted jungles in the distance and the gray-black smoke shrouding the sky reveal undisguised malice.

"Chaos Plague."

"The equipment supported by my cousins is really suitable."

Originally, White Scars warriors complained that the weapons supported by brothers Salamanders were not very convenient.

But at this moment, everyone was sighing.

After all, White Scars doesn't like flames as much as Salamanders.

But when faced with something like Chaos Plague, flame is indeed an excellent way to restrain it.

"Whoops!"

"Boom!"

Just as a large number of Thunderhawk and Stormbird were about to land, the attack broke out instantly.

In the surrounding jungle, countless twisted and weird creatures swayed towards the White Scars warriors stationed in the simple defense line on the surface.

The Fire Support Squad warriors waved Heavy Bolter and began to pour countless ammunition on these twisted creatures.

Among the Drop Pod that landed on the periphery, Autocannon began to fire at all the twisted creatures around it.

The earth-shaking sound of firing resounded across the land.

The power of Autocannon is even more amazing than Heavy Bolter.

Each shot can lift up a large piece of broken rotten flesh.

And suddenly the large piece of Missile flew out of the jungle and rushed towards the vehicles that had not yet reached the ground.

A string of Melta beams with gray light and green smoke rushed towards the Drop Pod loaded with Autocannon, blowing them into a pile of scrap metal.

Violent explosions exploded in mid-air at the same time.

Two Thunderhawk Transporter and several pieces of equipment Drop Pod were hit.

The out-of-control Thunderhawk spun and rolled in the air. Several unlucky soldiers were thrown out of the Transport Aircraft.

What's even more pitiful is the Rhino hanging below.

The steel vehicle fell from an altitude of hundreds of meters, and every one of the people inside was packed with it.

The exploded equipment Drop Pod caused extensive damage.

Two soldiers were hit by motorcycle debris falling from mid-air.

The firepower of the ground defense line was disturbed by the falling debris, and the firepower intensity dropped significantly for a while.

The creatures infected by the plague immediately accelerated the siege.

These twisted monstrous creatures not only exude terrible viruses, but the corrupted flesh and blood on their bodies also provide amazing protection.

Amidst the flames that filled the sky, Khan caught a glimpse of the group of blasphemous figures in the jungle on the edge of the battlefield through the observation window of Stormbird.

A group of Deathshroud wearing Terminator Armour surrounded a taller figure standing in a corner of the jungle.

Jaghatai is very sure that it is his once skinny brother.

Death Guard Legion's Primarch--Mortarion.

"Damn it, this is not Isstvan III! We are not Imperial Fists either!"

Jaghatai Progeny's anger continued to rise as he watched his own death.

The entire crude landing field created by Orbital Bombardment has a diameter of more than ten square kilometers.

The outermost simple defense line is hundreds of meters away from the jungle.

However, these distances do not mean safety.

Chaos's minions have already made preparations.

Thunderhawk Transporter landed in a hurry. Under the orders of the sergeant and Company, the soldiers quickly left the vehicle and ran towards Drop Pod, which was smashed to the ground.

Defensive warfare is not what White Scars is good at.

They must take action immediately.

The soldiers stepped on the Attack Bike and turned the accelerator to jump out of the trench.

The Chainaxe and Chogoris in the hand, the unique Power Scimitar, shine brightly.

Heavy Bolter mounted on Attack Bike began to spit out tongues of fire.

Land Speeder also began to project firepower on these plague creatures.

But in the twisted jungle, dense Bolter suddenly shot out, mowing down dozens of people.

Death Guard, covered in plague, gradually appeared from behind the twisted organisms.

And countless huge meatballs composed of rotten flesh, pus, blood, and germs flew up from the jungle and crashed towards the landing area.
