Chapter 1994 Heart-to-Heart Talk
“Please forgive Azmodai for being rude before.”
In the Storm Bird cabin, Soshyan and Azrael were sitting on opposite sides of the cabin. , there are only two of them here.
Hearing Azrael's words, Soshyan smiled.
"No problem, but are interrogating priests always so fanatical?"
"This is the embodiment of Azmodai's uncompromising nature. Although he is harsh to everyone, no one is willing to fight alongside him in battle. His efforts against the enemy are outstanding. The dedication was exemplary, and in at least two places he couldn't be blamed, one in the interrogation room and the other on the battlefield."
"Sounds like some kind of balancing act. ?”
“Your senses are very keen, brother”
Azrael admitted:
“When I first became the Supreme Master, I was too young. , the battle brothers acted arbitrarily in front of me, spoke rashly and behaved recklessly, and even disrespected authority. Although they never disobeyed orders, they did not even dare to think about all this in front of Azmodai. Punishment can purify the soul and restore the soul. Discipline, Sappho is sometimes too tolerant. It is precisely because of Azmodai's support that I was able to rectify the war group in a very short time, and more importantly-"
The supreme master of the Dark Angel smiled bitterly.
“Whatever the flaws in Azmodai’s character, dishonesty is not among them. This is even more rare in the Chapter. He is one of the few people who will not hide his opinions, no matter how outrageous they are. .”
Soshiyang nodded thoughtfully.
"I understand. You have taught me another lesson. Temperance and kindness are choices, not requirements. Sometimes I also wonder if I am too lenient towards the soldiers."
< br>"This balance is a difficult one to grasp. Azmodai has his advantages, but he is also destructive and erratic. On the one hand, he will seek atonement for any misdeeds he has committed, and on the other hand, he will seek atonement for any misdeeds he has committed. On the other hand, he will use the interrogation request to show off his power, but turns a blind eye to his own arrogance and hypocrisy. His behavior is indeed very subtle in a sense, but it is too 'noisy'. Brother Soshiyang, you should also understand, for us Some things are better left alone, which is why I chose Sappho to be the Head Priest instead of Azmodai.”
At this time, Soshyan asked with a smile:
"Then I am even more curious, how did you convince them to let me participate in such a confidential internal meeting?"
Azriel shrugged.
“I just said that we must choose between letting the traitor go or telling you the truth. There is no third way to choose from. In the end, everyone chose the second way because I I added that Samuel has already told you what should be said and what should not be said."
"Ha, isn't Captain Samuel going to take the blame?"
"The Master of Hunting has his responsibilities, and he has the right to act in the way he thinks is feasible. No one can blame him for these things. Soshyan nodded, and then wanted to tell the other party that he had encountered the original body of the White Scar. See Look at Azriel's reaction, but he swallowed the words before he spoke.
This matter may not be a good thing to say. Who does the original body belong to in the First Legion? It's hard to tell what level of secret it is. It would be bad if it causes trouble or affects the relationship with Azrael.
Maybe it would be better to change the time.
Then, Suo. Shiyan confided to Azrael the trivial matters that had annoyed and angered him during the expedition, as well as some of his complaints against the High Lords Council. Azrael said nothing during the process, and just listened quietly. .
After Soshiyang finished speaking, the Supreme Master slowly said:
"Actually, only you will be troubled by these things. This is not derogatory, because if a mortal is the commander, then he He was probably overwhelmed by the heavy military duties, and had no energy to think about and pay attention to other issues. Moreover, from 515.M41 when Saint Sabat began her first expedition, to 755.M41 when the Supreme Council of Terra granted the Sledo War The Warmaster began his second expedition. During the intervening two hundred years, the Sabat sector was in a state of tug-of-war. Until 791.M41, the last rebel force in the Sabat sector was annihilated. Two consecutive Warmasters assembled an army of more than one billion and experienced It took nearly forty years to quell a group of Chaos rebels mainly composed of mortals, but brother, you want to spend five years to eliminate the second largest group of Chaos Space Marines after the Black Legion. If you were another person, I will definitely say that he is arrogant."
Azrael said, paused, and a smile appeared on his face.
“But it’s only you, brother. As I said, no mortal can coordinate such a large situation like you, and still have the energy to fight against the rotten bureaucracy. You have done well enough. There is nothing perfect in this empire. I know what the empire looks like now. For example, why did the Sabat expedition last so long? Because that expeditionary army was filled with a large number of people. Incompetent and corrupt elements, such as Lieutenant General Andres Kahnheide, as brave and strategic generals, will be framed and killed by villains. Even the war commander of Macaro has no way to do anything, let alone countless The blood of heroic soldiers was wasted for various stupid reasons."
The supreme master of the Dark Angels said, his voice gradually lowered, and he turned his eyes to the increasingly clear sky outside the window.
"Perhaps all we can do is support this crumbling empire with our shoulders. It can last for one day. Just one day."
Soon, the Storm Birds arrived on the surface of the Sagan planet, and Soshyan took Following the Dark Angels and the others, they arrived at the command center. At this time, all the high-level commanders of the Astartes Chapter who had assembled in Sagan were also waiting here.
When Soshyan and Azrael walked in, many people were surprised.
After that, Soshiyang gave everyone a brief introduction to each other. The atmosphere was quite harmonious, and there were no old conflicts or grudges among the battle groups present.
Of course, Asterion Moro, the Chapter Leader of the Minotaur, was also present at this meeting, but he stood alone in an inconspicuous position and looked out of place to the naked eye.
Subsequently, three giant imaging devices were activated, and detailed battle conditions in different theaters appeared on them.
“.As you can see, our army’s current main battlefield is located in Badab Prime, as well as the Lamptan System and the Raven System. After Huron was repelled by our army from Angstrom, , has been building defenses in the Bloody Skeleton Galaxy and the Colkeria Galaxy, assuming a passive defense posture. However, before the nail of Badab is not removed, the opponent still has the possibility of another large-scale attack. , Corsaro Khan is conducting guerrilla raids on the Bloody Skeleton Galaxy, but the current effect is not significant."
"According to Marshal Helbrecht's latest battle report, with the help of the Gray Knights, they have already succeeded. Suppressed the demons summoned by Honso and found a way to crack the opponent's defense. As long as those few demon silver towers were destroyed, the fleet could safely carry out bombing missions in orbit, taking into account the possibility of the intervention of the rebellious Fourth Army. Sexually, Marshal Helbrecht planned to launch a full-scale attack directly on the enemy's ground facilities while destroying the Silver Tower, using extreme fortifications to break through at the moment the enemy's defense collapsed, to achieve the goal of a quick victory."
