The Macharian Crusade (392-399.M41) was a seven-year Imperial military campaign (or Crusade) led by Lord Commander Solar Macharius. It took place on the far western edge of the galaxy, within the Segmentum Pacificus and leading into the Halo Zone. The campaign brought nearly one thousand worlds into the Imperium, and was one of the most successful crusades in its history.

History 历史

It all began on Donia which later became the Shrine World Macharia. Here, Macharius was born and began his rise in the ranks of the Imperial military. At his time, the Imperium was reeling from internal conflicts and civil war in Segmentum Solar, and he spent his early career mainly to overcoming various rebel and warlorde factions. Several of these he managed to convince to join him, and some former warlords would later become able commanders of his crusade. Eventually, Macharius rose to Lord Commander Solar; in this position, he petioned the High Lords of Terra for a new war of conquest in scale not seen since the Great Crusade. The High Lords agreed, and put the entire Astra Militarum at his disposal.

这一切都始于多尼亚，后来成为了圣地世界马卡里亚。马卡里乌斯在这里出生，并开始在帝国军队中崛起。在他那个时代，帝国正受到太阳星域内部冲突和内战的困扰，他早期的职业生涯主要是为了克服各种叛乱和军阀派系。他设法说服其中几位加入他的行列，一些前军阀后来成为他远征的得力指挥官。最终，马卡里乌斯升任太阳领主指挥官；在这个职位上，他与泰拉高领主们展开了一场新的征服战争，其规模是自大远征以来从未见过的。高领主们同意了，并将整个星界军交由他支配。

Macharius set up seven great army groups for his grand campaign. He himself led the First Army Group. Eventually, he rallied his troops on Donia before boarding the waiting transports in orbit above the planet. Then they set off to conquer planets right out to the Galactic Rim, and even beyond the reach of the Astronomican. Many of the planets had been lost in the previous chaos of the Age of Apostasy.

马卡里乌斯为他的大战役组建了七个庞大的集团军。他亲自领导了第一集团军。最终，他在多尼亚集结了部队，然后登上了在行星轨道上等待的运输船。然后，他们出发去征服银河系边缘的行星，甚至超越了星炬的范围。许多行星在叛教时代之前的混乱中失落了。

Notable Battles 著名战斗

The first major battle of the crusade took place against the Cult of the Angel of Fire, which ruled over the Karsk System. Here the Cult was revealed to be a Tzeentchian front, and a wounded Macharius faced down a Lord of Change itself, rejecting its promises of power through Chaos and remaining pure. The Crusade ground on, and many alien and human civilizations were encountered. The most notable campaigns included:

远征的第一场主要战役发生在与统治卡尔斯克星系的火焰天使教派的对抗中。在这里，教派被揭露为一个奸奇领导的，受伤的马卡里乌斯面对着万变魔君本身，拒绝了其通过混沌获得力量的承诺，保持纯洁。远征开始了，遇到了许多异型文明和人类文明。最引人注目的战役包括：

The extent of Macharius' Crusade 马卡里乌斯的远征的范围

• 392.M41- The Hive World of Persepolis is re-contacted by the Imperium after 5,000 years. Macharius joins Sejanus's army while they fight across the deserts of Gedrosia. Macharius finds the tomb of the ancient explorer Indijona the Vagrant and takes his helm for himself.

Strategic Overview 战略概述

Overall, in the first year of the Crusade, a hundred worlds fell. In the second year, three hundred fell. In the third, nearly seven hundred planets had fallen to Macharius' armies. Each of them was systematically wiped out or brought under the dominion of the Imperium, and in the wake of Macharius' conquering army came Missionaries of the Ecclesiarchy and Inquisitorial teams to reestablish the Imperial yoke on these reclaimed realms.

总的来说，在远征的第一年，一百个世界沦陷。第二年，三百个倒下。第三年，近七百颗行星落入马卡里乌斯的军队手中。他们中的每一个都被系统地消灭或置于帝国的统治之下，在马卡里乌斯的征服军队之后，国教的传教士和审判庭团队来了，以在这些收复的领土上重建帝国的枷锁。

By the end of the Crusade, Macharius' armies stood undefeated and at the edge of the Western Galaxy, facing the Halo Zone and the limits of the light of the Astronomican. The region beyond was cut off from the Imperium and the home to civilizations that knew not of the Emperor. At this point, Macharius's generals and troops wavered. They pleaded him to reconsider advancing into the Halo Stars. His fleet would be slowed due to the difficulty Navigators would have in Warp travel beyond the Astronomican, and his Astropaths would be beyond the range of communication back to Imperial space. Moreover, his armies had simply run out of energy after many long battles. Many of his troops were also fearful of what lay beyond, most scout teams sent into the Halo Zone never returned and those that did told of strange phenomenon, of haunted stars and entire worlds inhabited by ghosts. Faced with this refusal to advance, Macharius became furious and accused his men of betrayal and cowardice. He locked himself in his state room, drinking himself to a drunken stupor.

远征结束时，马卡里乌斯的军队不败，站在银河系西部的边缘，面对光环区域和星炬之光的极限。更远的地区与帝国和不了解帝皇的文明的家园隔绝了。此时，马卡里乌斯的将军和军队犹豫不决。他们恳求他重新考虑进军光环群星。由于导航者在星炬之外的亚空间航行中遇到的困难，他的舰队减速，他的星域超出返回帝国空域的通信范围。此外，他的军队在经历了许多漫长的战斗后，已经耗尽了能量。他的许多部队也对未来感到恐惧，大多数被派往光环区域的侦察队再也没有回来，而那些回来的侦察队则讲述了奇怪的现象、闹鬼的恒星和整个鬼魂居住的世界。面对这种拒绝前进的态度，马卡里乌斯变得愤怒起来，指责他的部下背叛和懦弱。他把自己锁在会客厅里，喝得酩酊大醉。

When Macharius finally reappeared, he ordered his fleet to set course back to Imperial space. His soldiers cheered the Warmaster a hero, and his generals breathed a sigh of relief. However, Macharius was a broken man and his dreams of boundless conquests were shattered in the face of human frailty. His will broken, according to Imperial records on the return journey Macharius succumbed to a jungle fever he had contracted on Jucha in 400.M41. However this was just a coverup by Imperial authorities, and in truth an already-dying Macharius, riddled with plagues of Nurgle received battling the traitorous general Richter on the world of Loki, was killed by an agent of the Officio Assassinorum with cooperation of the Inquisitor Hyronimus Drake for unknown reasons. Despite their earlier refusal to continue the Crusade, Macharius's men deeply mourned the passing of their general and revered him as a god.

当马卡里乌斯最终再次出现时，他命令他的舰队返回帝国空域。他的士兵们为战帅欢呼，称其为英雄，他的将军们松了一口气。然而，马卡里乌斯是一个破碎的人，面对人类的脆弱，他无限征服的梦想破灭了。根据帝国记录，马卡里乌斯在回程中死于400.M41在朱查感染的丛林热，他的愿望破碎了。然而，这只是帝国当局的掩盖，事实上，一个已经奄奄一息的马卡里乌斯，饱受纳垢瘟疫的折磨，在洛基世界与叛徒将军里希特作战，被刺客庭的一名特工在审判官希罗尼穆斯·德拉克的合作下杀害，原因不明。尽管他们早些时候拒绝继续远征，但马卡里乌斯的部下对将军的去世深感悲痛，并将他尊为神。

After his death, Macharius's body was returned to Doria, where the Crusade had originally began. A massive funeral took place, which was attended by Adepts, ministers of the Ecclesiarchy, Tech-priests, and many other important figures wishing to pay their respect. A million men led the funeral procession, and a hundred generals laid their swords on his ornate sarcophagus. To honor his deeds his homeworld was renamed to Macharia.

马卡里乌斯死后，他的尸体被送回了远征最初开始的地方多里亚。举行了一场盛大的葬礼，出席葬礼的有专家、国教牧师、技术神甫和许多其他希望表达敬意的重要人物。一百万人率领葬礼队伍，一百名将军将剑放在他华丽的石棺上。为了纪念他的事迹，他的家园世界被重新命名为马卡里亚。

Aftermath 余波

After the death of Macharius himself his newly-forged conquests fell into anarchy in a seventy-year civil war known as the Macharian Heresy. In this civil war and subsequent centuries, many of the conquered worlds were lost again to the Imperium; either because they successfully rebelled or due to being completely destroyed.

马卡里乌斯本人去世后，他新征服的领土在一场被称为马卡里安叛乱的70年内战中陷入了无政府状态。在这场内战和随后的几个世纪里，许多被征服的世界对于帝国再次失落；要么是因为他们反抗成功，要么是因为被彻底摧毁。

To honor those Imperial Knight Houses that served under Macharius, he issued the Banner of Macharius Triumphant, which was still given to Knights Seneschals even long after his death.

为了纪念在马卡里乌斯下服务的帝国骑士家族，他发行了马卡里乌斯大捷之旗，即使在他去世很久之后，这面旗帜仍被赠送给骑士总管。

The Pilgrimage of Macharius was later established, which sees pilgrims travel the same space lanes that Lord Solar Macharius' armies did during the Macharian Crusade. Countless faithful of the Imperial Cult undertake it every year, but only a few pious souls ever finish the journey, as most die in the attempt.

后来确立了马卡里乌斯朝圣，朝圣者沿着在马卡里安远征期间太阳领主马卡里乌斯的军队所走的太空路线航行。每年都有无数帝国教派的信徒参加，但只有少数虔诚的灵魂完成了这段旅程，因为大多数人都在尝试中死去。

Crusade Forces 远征部队

Macharius' forces were divided into 7 Army Groups, collectively referred to as the Grand Army of Reconquest. Each army group was led by a General appointed by Macharius himself.

马卡里乌斯的部队分为7个集团军，统称为再征服大军。每个集团军都由马卡里乌斯亲自任命的一名将军领导。
