Chapter 1989 The Helpless Alien Tribunal
In fact, before arriving, Soshyan predicted that the Alien Tribunal would not give up on the massacre of the Hoylander family by the Eldar, so he had no idea about their old affairs. It was not surprising to mention it again, so he replied kindly:
"Please tell me."
"According to the records of the Alien Court over the years, the Ark Eldar never do anything meaningless. They are different from the fallen relatives of Commorragh. Each action must have a very unpredictable but actually very clear goal. They like to interfere with the layout of the empire through guidance, creating chaos, etc. to realize their evil ideas. , although the Hoyland family sells soul stones wantonly, this will not attract the Eldar to use such a huge force. They can complete this thing more covertly and with a small force. Assassination is easy for them, so we There is reason to suspect that this group of mysterious elves have other motives for massacring the Hoyland family. Even this action is just a foreshadowing. It is uncertain what they will do next. Maybe this expedition is their real goal!"< br>
Since the aliens active in the Maelstrom are basically green-skinned pirates and a few Dark Eldar raiders, the power of the Alien Tribunal is not strong this time, far more powerful than the Heretic and Demonic Tribunals. Much weaker, which is reflected in the softer tone of their speech, which is mainly based on suggestions rather than the commanding tone.
Soshiyang is the type that if you speak well, I will speak well. After pretending to think for a moment, he said slowly:
"I can understand the concerns of the Alien Court. The Eldar are unpredictable enemies. , they will always try to come up with some tricks and tricks, but now the main enemy we face is the heresy, the red pirates are still poisoning the maelstrom, the main contradiction and the secondary contradiction must be clearly distinguished, otherwise we will not act like Like headless flies, they bump here and there, and in the final analysis, what kind of trouble can a small group of elves make? We have such a huge army and such a powerful fleet here. It is right to pay attention to the threat, but if Being panicked because of the slightest threat, doesn’t it appear that the empire is afraid of the Eldar?”
Although there was some conflict just now, the judges of the other two tribunals agreed with Soshyan’s view.
“That’s right, a mere group of Eldar can’t compare with the threat of the heresy in front of us. Things must be done carefully.”
“The people in the Alien Court are making too much fuss, the maelstrom is so long In history, the largest Eldar threat is that the Dark Eldar conspiracy has plundered certain worlds. The curtain of the space here is weak, and the Ark Eldar will instinctively stay away from this place."
"Can't you just investigate and deal with it yourself? There is no need for everyone to be busy with this kind of thing. This is a war period, and manpower is very tight."
Faced with the exclusion of the other two branches of the Tribunal , although the judges of the Alien Tribunal were very angry, their power here was really weak.
In the end, strength speaks for itself within the Tribunal, because you have the power to judge me, and I also have the power to judge you. In this situation of equal power and no institutional constraints, if a conflict breaks out between the two parties, Immediately return to the most essential solution of human beings-
Violence.
At that time, whoever had the bigger fist was justified. This was also the reason why there were perennial struggles and fights within the Tribunal.
"Okay, everyone is serving the emperor. We have each other's responsibilities and just understand each other."
At this time, Soshyan, as an outsider, became the peacemaker, calming down the imminent danger between the two sides. The conflict that broke out also bypassed the matter of the Alien Tribunal.
Of course, the Tribunal is not all trouble-seeking. In fact, as the most powerful institution in the empire, they also brought a lot of key intelligence and suggestions to Soshyan.
One of them is about the last demon prince arranged by the Red Pirates in Badab. "After our long-term investigation and confirmation, the demon that appeared in Badab is a demon prince named Bowenger. He is a very ancient existence, commanding a large army of vampires, and his physical image is a head. A giant leech wrapped in armor that serves as a warp portal. He summons a large number of demonic legions during battle. At one point earlier than M40, he slaughtered the entire population of Kokanath and made it his lair. , finally when the Inquisition executed the extermination order on the world, it disappeared from the planet, and occasionally appeared on some battlefields in the following thousand years. This demon prince currently controls two Chaos warbands and is in the Badab sector. Wreaking havoc, the Gray Knights have formulated corresponding action plans and are working hard to track and banish it."
Soshyan nodded after listening to the report of the Demonic Tribunal.
“No wonder the battle reports from Badab always say that from time to time, an army of demons will appear inexplicably at the logistics transfer point behind the besieging troops and in the world that has been confirmed to be safe. It turns out that it is this beast that is causing trouble! It has already It has seriously affected the progress of Marshal Herbrecht's siege of Badab, and it must be eradicated as soon as possible!"
"We are working hard to trace its footprints. In addition, according to our informants deployed in the bloody skull! According to the intelligence returned, Huron began to relocate the population in his territory after the failure of Angerstom last time, trying to build a series of fortress worlds. However, it is worth noting that the heretic fleet is still near Angstrom. activities, they are executing an evil plan, which is to secretly send a large number of agitators to various worlds and set off a wave of rebellion behind the expeditionary force. Currently, the Death Cult is tracking and assassinating those agitators in a targeted manner. In addition, The heretics may also continue to suppress the food supply in the war zone. They are using the wealth they looted in the past to purchase large quantities of food through the black market, trying to quickly raise food prices.”
In fact, Oka’s information about Huron. What Mu provided was more accurate, but he didn't mention those "small plans" very much, so the news brought by the Inquisition was still relatively important.
"Can those passages be cut off? I remember that food control has been ordered."
"In fact, imperial agencies have been making similar attempts, but the Red Pirates used to plunder a large amount of precious metals, gems, jewelry and works of art that they could not use, and these things are precisely the ones that are more popular among the upper class, and in the There are many people doing illegal business in the maelstrom."
"Then increase the control."
In fact, Soshyan already knows where to solve it.
In the gray area, let the gray people solve it. The war on the bright side will continue to be fought, and the war on the dark side will continue to be fought, and the commander on that side is Sorge.
Some problems can only be solved by a two-pronged approach.
After the meeting with the inquisitors, Soshyan took a brief rest for a day and had a separate meeting with the Patriarch of St. Dalton. He actually had a very important military meeting, but he was waiting for one person— —
And a powerful ally.
Finally, at the end of the third day of the meeting with the Inquisitors, a powerful fleet entered the subspace node of the Sagan system.
