Chapter 195 Thirty Year Plan
Just like war, the banquet must end.
When the green-skinned forces in the Ferron system were basically crushed, the Imperial Navy and the Astra Militarum took the lead in withdrawing from the war zone.
The navy was severely damaged in the continuous battles. Many warships were in urgent need of repairs, and a large amount of supplies and personnel needed to be replenished. Only one patrol fleet was left in the system and it quickly left the star area.
The Astra Militarum only left a few regiments in the system, and then set off to places where they were needed more.
As the initiator of the campaign, the Ascetic Chapter, after relieving the great trouble in the Fulen System, will also set out to the edge of the Storm Star Territory to deal with the increasingly serious problem of gene stealers - this task the Ascetic Chapter intends to complete alone .
On the other hand, the greenskins on Fulun Prime were not completely wiped out, and there were still some strongholds that were still resisting. However, the greenskins who lost their top command quickly fell into internal fighting and had no time to organize. Launch a powerful counterattack.
The Weeper Chapter will finally put an end to this problem. They will temporarily station themselves in the Ferron system, using the temporary space orbital station of Gages as their base, while continuing to suppress the evil forces in the system. Greenskin activities, on the one hand, protect the colonial ships coming from other galaxies - the Ferron galaxy and some valuable mining planets. The district governor has already made corresponding development plans.
However, at the request of the Magyar Lords, most of the traces of the Weeper's existence were erased, and they announced that they had gone on expeditions to other areas - except for a very few people, no one would know about this team. The Chapter is currently staying in the Fulen system, and all activities are secret.
The real mastermind and the Chapter Master of the Astral Knights Chapter that was the last to leave the galaxy, Soshyan Alexey, determined the Chapter's plan for the next thirty years.
Hibernating, gathering strength, and trying to collect any information about the planet Ullanor.
The specific thing is to increase the number of new blood in the battle group as much as possible and restore the size of the battle group to at least one company of troops.
After leading the battle group back to Nessen IV, the first thing Soshyan did was to actively contact Griffin IV near the forge world, trying to repair the ship they had captured from the Orks. Revenge-class large cruiser.
However, the Mechanicus of Griffin IV did not seem to be too concerned about this project. Instead, they hoped that Soshyan would transfer this warship to them, which may contain some ancient relic technology.
The price is a squad of Indomitable Terminator armor, or a certain number of armored vehicles, such as Leman Russ tanks, or some variants of Chimera, and Storm Raven gunships. Flying vehicles, or a large number of individual weapons and equipment.
It has to be said that people from the Mechanicus are very down-to-earth in doing business, and their prices are not low.
But Soshiyang wants to make the battle group's fleet stronger. They are currently very few in number. Even if they have the combat equipment, there will not be enough manpower to use it for a while. As for the equipment used by the auxiliary army, , and it doesn’t even have much value.
So the plan to repair the battleship can only be put on hold, waiting for the right opportunity, or looking for a new forge world - there are several forge worlds in the Storm Star Territory, but they are all relatively far away.
As for the Spark, according to Loken, according to the current level of technology and industrial power, it will take at least three to five years for her to regain the combat capabilities of her heyday. time.
It is equivalent to say that the Astral Knights Chapter will no longer be able to conduct any expedition activities or battles for a long time, and can only stay on the temporary home planet-unless they want to launch Take the frigate to fight.
At this point, Soshyan could only suppress his inner urgency and slow down his pace.
The battle group has since entered a long period of calm. The soldiers are separated from the fierce battle. Every day they train, study, and polish their combat skills to make full preparations for the next battle.
As for Soshyan himself, in addition to participating in daily training, what he does most is to inspect the transformation of new recruits.
Currently, the operation has entered the fourth stage, and there are only 35 surviving recruits left.
The situation is not optimistic.
But he had no better way than to encourage and appease the pharmacist as much as possible.
Because this is the status quo.
In addition, in his spare time, he would occasionally ask Brother Seid about some old things and problems of the Legion during the Great Crusade, especially about the original body and the aliens he traded with, and their The way he used to fight.
Soshiyang understood this not only out of curiosity, he was also a little confused. What allowed the original body to touch the emperor's taboos at all costs. If it was just the webway, then Soshiyang felt that it was not No need for such a drastic approach.
There must be other reasons inside.
But whenever he talked about this, Said would choose to avoid it and just told him that he would understand everything after finding the flagship. "Welcome back, my lord."
Before walking through the corridor to reach his private room, Soshyan had to pass through his private armed room, and the servants serving him were already waiting here. .
"Thank you."
Soshiyan sincerely thanked his servant. After the day's training, his body was eager to relax.
After he stood in front of the weapons rack, before he could say anything, the servant came up.
The three men took the Holy Flame Sword from his waist and placed it on the weapon rack.
The other two people removed the bolter from the left thigh and placed it on the weapon rack as well.
Then, Soshyan walked to the armor frame and touched its touch screen.
For a moment, the red light above the glass door turned green, and the sound generated by the equalization of air pressure turned on.
The candlelight swayed due to this brief and sudden airflow, and the armor platform stretched out with a burst of mechanical sound.
It stopped, opened its fixed claws, and Soshyan turned around and retreated inside.
Then the round-headed claws grabbed his backpack.
Then he raised his arms, and the other fixed claws grabbed his elbows.
The support frame was lifted up to support his forearm, and the fixed frame grabbed the back of his shin guard.
He turned off the last bit of data flow on the visor, and then turned off the engine that powered the armor.
The armor suddenly lost power and pressed heavily on his shoulders, retracting the data interface connecting his nerves to the armor.
The servants stepped forward, and they pushed the metal cart forward. On the cart were many tools for dismantling armor.
While chanting the armor removal prayer, they began to dismantle Soshyan's armor.
Soshiyang also closed his eyes and quietly recited the armor-removing prayer with his attendants.
"The battle is over, but the war will never end."
They chanted:
"Rest belongs to the warriors, repair belongs to the ordnance, and praise the machine soul that protects us."
The helmet is the first part to be removed.
Of all the equipment, this one is the heaviest, although it is not the one with the greatest mass.
As the helmet was removed from Soshyan's head, he breathed in the air of the monastery mixed with incense and holy oil, which made his lungs relax.
The air-tight part of the neck is the second to be removed.
The part peeled away from his slimy skin, releasing the moist air between the gaps in the armor.
The intense training gave him a smell of sweat, and Soshiyang couldn't help but frown.
The body odor produced by angels is not much better than that of ordinary people, and there are also many pungent chemical compounds in it - which are by-products of his strengthened body and flow out of the body with sweat.
