Chapter 52 02.0052: "Ambition and Shadow"

"However, we haven't thought of a name for this special forces yet. Do you have any good suggestions, Mr. Horatio?" Brigadier General Edward asked with a smile.

He wanted to help the young man in front of him gain more decision-making participation in the lengthy project, and at the same time understand his interest in the matter.

"Why not call me Hell Commando, sir?" Horatio said unexpectedly, his tone strong and powerful.

"Hmm~ where did this inspiration come from?" Brigadier General Edward pursed his lips and nodded thoughtfully.

Commando means 'commando' and is pronounced as Komando.

Translated as 'vanguard' in the Chinese context, both Britain and France in ancient Terra had this unit.

During World War II, the British Navy selected and formed the famous Comando Special Forces, the predecessor of the "Red Devils" SAS Special Air Service Regiment, symbolizing the establishment of the world's first formal special forces.

(PS: The Brandenburg Troops were the first special forces, but not officially the first.)
He made outstanding contributions in North Africa, Operation Market Garden, Normandy and the Liberation of France.

Soon the French Navy also quickly formed an elite Comando force under the Navy, which participated in the counterattack against France and many military operations in Central and North Africa.

"Since they are an elite force under the Imperial Navy, they must have the courage to step into hell with their own feet without any ground reinforcements!"

"It's a good name." Brigadier General Edward nodded pertinently.
"This force will be established soon as the spearhead to uncover the conspiracy, Mr. Horatio. Are you interested in joining it in the future?"

"Happy to oblige."

"Very good. You will immediately start military training tomorrow. Do your best. There will be a graded assessment. But you have one more thing to do today."

"what?"

"there."

Edward raised his chin and gestured behind Horatio: "Your school uniform."

Horatio turned and saw the uniforms on two separate hangers.

Both uniforms were ironed neatly, and they looked like they were brand new custom-made.

"You prepared this... for me?" Horatio walked forward, unable to help but let out a small exclamation, and reached out his hand to pinch the hem of the clothes.

The material of the daily wear is solid and soft. It is a 19th century British short-sleeved jacket style. At first glance, it looks like the uniform of the Mordian Guard, but there are no tassels on the shoulders. It adopts the double-breasted design that the navy loves. The void blue tone is handsome and cool.

Because Horatio was a reserve sergeant, he wore a wide-brimmed flat-top military cap of the same color as his regular uniform, which resembled the British Navy's cap in World War II.

The other was a neatly ironed military dress uniform, the silver ribbon on the chest gleaming with an awe-inspiring light, and the scarlet shoulder tassels adding an inviolable sense of majesty to the entire uniform.

It resembles the British naval uniform of the Napoleonic era, with the same double-breasted design, but shorter in front and longer in the back.

The front reaches the abdomen, and the back hem just reaches the knee joint, which is dignified and solemn. It is matched with a soft and beautiful navy bicorne hat, pure white pants, and two kinds of shoes, black high-barreled boots and leather shoes, which can be worn on different occasions.

"Without a uniform, how can you let others know that you are the sacred currency of His Majesty the Emperor? Wear your military uniform to report tomorrow, and after the surgery, leave a deep impression on your classmates."

"Operation?"

“Sure, you have five minor surgeries to do, but they won’t take long.

Bone strengthening surgery can make your bones 50% harder than normal people's, so you won't be crippled when you're hit by an impact.

An implanted coagulation device can save your life after an injury and help you survive until you can get to the operating room.

Pain suppression surgery can make you feel the injury as light as a scrape, reducing the pain's weakening effect on your fighting ability.

Heart pump surgery can effectively improve your cardiopulmonary function, allowing you to maintain healthy breathing regardless of the vacuum or other harsh environments.

Mental strength enhancement can make your reaction speed faster than ordinary people, your will stronger, and your thoughts clearer. In my opinion, it is the most important operation. It can effectively reduce the probability of corruption when navigating in the subspace, and you will not appear too clumsy and slow when facing Chaos Space Marines. "

"It really fits the Navy's five operations."

"Get ready, Mr. Horatio."

Brigadier General Edward straightened his back solemnly and walked to Horatio’s side: “From the clues collected by the intelligence department, what you experienced was not a coincidence, but a conspiracy that started eight years ago, but we still need to investigate more to uncover the truth.

The shadow of chaos is hovering over Abyss Harbor, and the claws of darkness are reaching out to the fleet.

Be prepared, find it, chop it off, and live."

The Brigadier General patted Horatio on the shoulder and said, "Then earn enough academic points to become a candidate officer. There will be greater crises waiting for you in the future. This process will not be smooth sailing."

Horatio took a deep breath and saluted.

It seems that he is not the only one who knows that Chaos has already started to make a lot of moves for the 13th Black Crusade.

Everyone knows the ambitions of Warmaster Abaddon, and everyone knows that his 13th Crusade will one day return with the minions of Chaos. The Gothic Fleet is particularly sensitive to this.

Even if Horatio knew the time was 999.M41, it would be useless to just say it.

Because the Cadia generation had been on high alert for thousands of years and deployed an unprecedentedly powerful military force. Even in the official records, Abaddon, who launched the 13th Black Crusade, had a hard time.

All the high-ranking officials of the empire know what will happen here in the future. Any proposal made with just words will not only be ignored, but will also cause trouble for the Inquisition.

The best way is to use the Imperial Navy as a springboard and expand the air-to-ground integrated armed forces with the Gothic Fleet as the core as much as possible in the next ten years.

Inject new variables into this chaos crucible and break the seemingly perfect tricks of the Chaos Power.

As a time traveler, Horatio had a plan in mind:
It would be best if we could hold on to Cadia. Of course, that was almost impossible.

Even if they cannot defend it, they must help the Misty Star Region, which is the forefront of the Empire's dark war, after the Great Rift is formed, and firmly defend and repel the attack without support from Terra and the Imperial Sanctuary. The Misty Star Region, as a battleground for military strategists, must not be lost. There are strategic locations such as the Caliss Star Region, the Kronus Expansion, and the Gothic Star Region.

There are also famous giant forging worlds such as Sepra-Mundi, Gothic, and Lucius.

There are also star army recruitment sites such as Vostronia, Modian, Sirius, Lanora, and Sintira.

This star field is also the main place where large Chaos forces such as the Death Guard, Iron Legion, Black Legion, and Ruby Thousand Sons attacked and fought for after the Great Rift was formed.

The latest plot seen before he came into this world.

The surface of Modian has been conquered by the Thousand Sons Legion. The entire planet is filled with the blue terror of a strange and powerful being. Tens of thousands of transport planes have been evacuated from Modian.

Although still in contention for status, it is unknown what the ultimate fate of Mordian will be.

But Modian, as the gateway, was stuck in a quagmire, and Chaos had already pointed its sword towards Sepra-Mundi.

It is only a matter of time before the great Hazy Star Domain Naval Headquarters falls. A large number of personnel and supplies are moving eastward to the Abyss Port of the Gothic Fleet Naval Headquarters, showing the "beauty" of Principal Chiang's war of resistance.

If Abyss Port falls again, Dante, the leader of the Blood Angels and regent of the Dark Empire, will be attacked from all sides.

He had already been tortured by the Leviathan Hive Fleet and the Scarlet Might's general Kabanha, and it was difficult for him to deal with such a bad situation without reinforcements.

But this cannot be blamed on the imperial forces.

To defend such a large star field and resist so many terrifying enemies in the chaos of losing the light of the Star Torch, you need an extremely large, powerful, confident and unified armed force, otherwise you will soon be defeated one by one.

Since the Gothic Fleet already has this idea, it is a good opportunity for them to ride on this strong wind, step on the gray bottom line of the code, and make some bold and innovative ideas.

[I don’t know what’s going on now. Will my Navy’s chosen one, Spyr, still emerge from the waves of the subspace after the galaxy is torn apart…]
However, the most urgent task at the moment is to find out what conspiracy the cultists who kidnapped him have against the Gothic Fleet.

"Put on your uniform, Mr. Horatio. We are expecting a soldier."

Brigadier General Edward put his hands behind his back and prepared to walk out.

"Sir," Horatio called out to him and told him the information he had obtained from the half-cat girl in Block F-4.

Horatio had been observing Brigadier General Edward's words and deeds, every move, for a long time since they met.

His intuition and reason told him that this man was someone he could trust and was loyal to the empire.

The brigadier general remained silent after hearing this, then took a deep breath and nodded seriously.

"Very good intelligence. These elusive guys have been annoying us for a long time.

This time they extended their claws to the daughter of Major General Alexander Hood, and the Major General was very angry.

We have sent people to sweep the abandoned chapel in K-7 block in time. It was a reluctant abandoned child, so we thought we had destroyed it and let it go. "

The Commodore looked Horatio in the eye and said, “I am convinced that this is a ruse, and your intelligence supports my point of view.

At the same time, the half storage board handed over by Farida is also being decoded. From the known information in it, it can be inferred that this force spans the upper, middle and lower nests, and may even include many imperial officials in Abyss Port. "

[It really came in handy. It's really wetware technology. It can still be used even if half of it is missing.]
It was a wise decision not to give up the half intact storage board.

Horatio was relieved.

"The whole thing is not that simple. The threat this time is different from the past. I even suspect that some cultists of different beliefs have united together."

"United? Does that mean it's not just those who believe in the power of joy?"

[No wonder Xin Huanyue and Kankan got together.]
“Someone wants to make a big case, but the clues are too fragmented. The Navy is still investigating the specific situation, and we have already paid a lot of sacrifices for this.

Your information will be very useful, Mr. Horatio, and when I am done, I will apply to the school for special academic points for you."

"Thank you, Mr. Perroux."

Brigadier General Edward saluted Horatio and walked out, leaving room for Horatio to change his clothes.

Horatio took down from the hanger a gorgeous military dress suit, which came with a shirt and waistcoat.

He finally took off the clothes that once belonged to Major General Hood and put on the military uniform that truly belonged to him.

Horatio stood in front of a wall mirror, adjusting his collar. He wore black dress shoes on his feet. His well-fitting and gorgeous double-breasted military uniform was smoothed out by him, and the straight hem swayed gently with his movements, like a graceful swallowtail.

Finally, he solemnly placed the bicorne horizontally on his head.

This hat can be worn horizontally or vertically.

Usually when on duty on the bridge, it is worn vertically to block the glare of the stars.

When holding a rifle, wearing it sideways will not hinder aiming.

"So beautiful." Horatio couldn't help but murmured as he looked at himself in the mirror.

The 16-year-old young man was about meters tall, with a tall and slender figure. He straightened his body slightly in front of the mirror, with his feet together and toes apart, looking like a staff officer.

If he improves his food, keeps exercising and becomes stronger, he will surely become more charismatic as a soldier.

[It's almost time to go out and let Mr. Peru and his family see it.]
Horatio took a few deep breaths to make his posture more natural and solemn.
