Chapter 656: Seizing the Command
“Everyone, I would like to take this opportunity to say a few words. Recently, people often chirp and make fun of me, saying that Armageddon is an important city in the Empire, and the Empire should do the same. Send a tiger to sit in the future, even if you can't send a tiger, you will send a dog at least, and in the end
it turns out to be a pig sitting here, hahaha."
Listen At this sentence, most people seemed a little confused, and occasionally someone laughed awkwardly. Only Talos glanced at him, and then glanced at Soshyan - the prophet had used technical means to dye his skin color light. Yellow, his eyes have also turned blue, so he is not afraid
of showing his true colors to others.
Then, Herman tilted his head towards Soshyan and Randall, and said in a relaxed tone:
"This is really a compliment to me. Since the war in the ancient Terra era, the pig's The tactic has been used successfully by people time and time again. When there is an attack, you will lean against the wall so that you can't catch the tail. Finally, you have no choice but to bite you with sharp teeth and bite it
"Don't let go."
Taros suddenly turned his head to Soshiyang and said in the low Gothic dialect of Naisen No. 4:
"What a weird theory is this guy talking about?" He's just full of farts. I think he's worse than a pig."
Soshyan suppressed his smile and raised his hand to signal Talos to stop talking.
But Herman had already noticed this, and his face suddenly turned cold.
"My lord, what are you talking about."
Talos sat upright, grinned, and replied:
"I say, the Governor is in favor."
>
Although he knew that what the other party said was definitely not good, Herman was too lazy to dwell on it. After chuckling a few times, he turned his eyes to Soshyan and Randall aside.
"Everyone who knows me knows that I love to tell jokes. Now everything can be solved. Since the two chapter leaders have arrived at the battlefield in person, please first share their views on the battle situation."
After Soshyan and Randall looked at each other, Soshyan finally stood up to speak, and at the same time, a full-motion super-large battlefield map also appeared on top of the long table.
"The war at Armageddon is severe. Although we defeated the main force of the three enemy clans in the Gray Desert, we did not completely turn the tide of the war."
Everyone turned their attention to the map and saw the entire On the planet Armageddon, except for the subcontinent, the northern and southern continents and the main continent have basically fallen, and only a few hives are still holding on.
"Now that the equatorial jungle is still under the control of the greenskins, it means that the enemy can attack the subcontinent from three directions at any time, especially the threats from the north and south continents, which are like an iron pincer. This is an extremely unfavorable situation for our army! However, it is an extremely unfavorable situation for our army! The greenskins are not without their weaknesses. First of all, they
don't have enough troops. After all, they are just a single ship landing, and the scale is definitely not comparable to a fleet-level invasion. Therefore, I conclude that they must not have many troops to invade the northern and southern continents now! There are still five nests on the northern and southern continents that are defending this point, which is enough to illustrate this point. Secondly, the green skins are greedy
not enough. They attack multiple areas at once and want to eat them up in one bite. As a result, they are not originally The more troops are more dispersed."
Everyone nodded, even Herman. This was the first time they heard a reasonable analysis of the battle situation since the greenskin invasion.
“But the technical power of this green skin is very powerful.”
Kurtz Mannheim suddenly spoke.
“Not long after we landed, so many giant war machines were built.”
“Yes, this is the most difficult thing about this group of greenskins.”
>
Soshyan nodded.
“The proportion of technicians among this group of greenskins must be very high, and after investigation, we found that after this group of greenskins captured the hive city, they did not simply destroy it, but instead restored the factories in the hive city. operate and use the hive residents as slaves.”
With a bang, Soshyan's fist hit the table, scaring the mortals who almost jumped up.
"Absolutely unforgivable! This group of greenskins must be completely and completely eliminated on this planet, otherwise it will definitely become a serious problem for the empire in the future!"
"Soshiyang Chapter leader, are you being serious?”
Herman said cautiously:
“This group of greenskins is nothing special. We were just caught off guard. In fact, after a period of time, Work hard, I have the situation under control——" "You don't understand"
Soshyan turned his head and stared at the governor, making the prisoner feel creepy.
"This only means one thing, these greenskins are no longer beasts that only know how to kill, they are conquerors, they are completely different!"
"Well, what is your opinion? Is that so? "
"The best way now is to concentrate our elite forces to clear out the enemies in the north and south continents first, and break the iron pincers! At the same time, the Titan Legion and its affiliated troops keep an eye on the equatorial jungle to prevent the enemy. Raid again. Once the enemies in the north and south continents are cleared, we can use the sea route
Attack the subcontinent, prioritize the siege of Hades Hive and Helrichs Hive, and then gradually clear out the enemies in the subcontinent. Finally, compress the greenskins into the narrow area of the jungle, and then use orbital bombardment to completely terminate them! ”
After Soshiyang finished speaking about his plan, everyone immediately started talking, but most people were optimistic and believed that this plan was feasible.
Afterwards, Soshiyang raised his hand and signaled Everyone is quiet for now.
“However, the most important point of this plan is that the time must be accurate and fast! Because the problem of insufficient green-skin troops is only short-term. According to the research report of the biological sage, it usually takes only 3-6 months for the green-skin spores to mature. If
it is in a fierce battle On the battlefield, it may be shorter. It has been a full five months since the green skins landed, and a new batch of green skins have begun to be born. If the problem cannot be solved quickly, then we will have to face geometric growth in the future. green skin! By then
We are the ones who are short of troops at this time. Once the war turns into a tug-of-war and a war of attrition, the greenskins can calmly use the resources of the hive, and Armageddon will never have peace! "
When everyone heard this, they all took a breath. They really ignored this. There don't seem to be so many green skins now, but after a period of proliferation, it is very likely to form a huge green skin. With their numbers, coupled with the industries they plunder, the war will continue to expand
, and the important industrial world of Armageddon may even be destroyed
The purpose of everyone's war. The goal is to defend the planet and its important industrial facilities, not to destroy it. If the planet is saved but the industry is destroyed, it is basically equivalent to failure.
"In order to achieve a quick victory, the various forces directly fight. Coordination and unity are important. ”
Soshyan turned to Herman. The planet governor's expression was already a little ugly, because the subtext of the Space Marines was already very clear -
To unified command.
This was something he could not accept under any circumstances, and he even began to think about how to have a good fight with the Chapter Leader of the Astartes on a political level.
"Of course, we will fully cooperate with the two chapter leaders in their operations."
"Thank you very much. I hope to discuss the specific details with you later, the Governor."
Herman was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded.
“This is no problem.”
Hearing this, Talos smiled coldly, and then glanced at the palm-sized metal can on his waist.
It contains a parasite cultivated by Valier that can be controlled by implanting a biochip. Its original form is a heterogeneous creature called Chuol's mind-controlling maggot, but it was given by Valier. The genes of certain dark creatures allow it to secrete a toxin that controls the minds of the parasites when it loses its psychic tentacles, especially those with poor willpower.
More importantly, this kind of parasitism is difficult to detect by machines or psychics.
Of course, this parasite is not perfect. Once it penetrates into the host's body, the host will have a strong rejection reaction and die of severe pain three hours later.
From the moment he landed on the planet, Soshyan had no intention of letting this governor live, either to take over command or for the sake of the billions of hive residents who died innocently.
But Randall told Soshyan that Herman's family was not simple. Not only could it sit in Armageddon for thousands of years, but it could also command the Titan Army, which must be on both Mars and Terra. With a solid backing, this kind of person cannot be killed easily. Even if he really wants to be killed, he cannot do it openly
or there will be endless troubles in the future.
So, Soshyan chose this more "troublesome" method.
Two hours later, the planetary governor, who had a separate meeting with Soshyan, announced that he would hand over the command of all the armed forces of the planet to Soshyan's agent. Then he took a special plane to "inspect the battlefield," but encountered an greenskin on the way. Missile attack, crash and death.
The governor's eldest son was only fourteen years old and was not yet a minor, so like his father, he handed over the command to the Soshyan agent.
At this point, the Armageddon counterattack led by the Astartes Chapter began.
