Lieutenant [[Sorov]] managed to get a man to infiltrate Narbo's inner circle as the Governor's pilot. This pilot, [[Gorny]], gave Sorov details of Narbo's planned movements, and Sorov planned to ambush Narbo to kill him, and cause the insurrection to fragment.{{Fn|1a}}
The Imperial Guard pushed to take the civitate, with promises of reinforcements. Before [[Sanctioned Psyker]] [[Glutt]]'s detail got as far as Tadmor Ridge, all except Glutt were killed, and no reinforcements were sent. The insurrectionists used chemical weapons to kill the Imperial Guard troops. Another force led by Sergeant [[Kapek]] reached Tadmor Ridge, where they were pinned down by insurrectionists using [[Lascannon]]s. Aerial strikes were called in to knock out the Lascannons, but the strikes were unsuccessful, and [[Kapek]]'s troops took heavier casualties than expected.{{Fn|1a}}
Sorov's unit moved into position on the route that Narbo's [[Aquila Lander]] shuttle was to planned to take towards Tadmor Ridge, and used a [[Rocket Launcher]] to down it. Narbo survived the wreckage, and turned into a [[Chaos Spawn]], which killed all of Sorov's unit except for Sorov, his [[Vox-officer]] [[Federak]], and Glutt, who had come across Sorov's unit while returning to the barracks. Glutt managed to destroy the Spawn.{{Fn|1a}}
