Chapter 2688 Theater Troupe Assistance
Soshiyan was on the bridge of the battle barge Heart of Light. He was watching a series of reports below. Just ten minutes ago, the communication between the orbit and the ground was almost cut off. Most of the channels were filled with crackling, distorted static, but Soshyan had long expected that the Necrontyr would do something like this first - among all the Necron reports recorded by the Empire in the past. , all mentioned the phenomenon of astropaths and remote communications being seriously interfered with or even blocked.
Now that he knew that this would happen, Soshiyang would not be the kind of person who only cares about food but not about fighting. Early on, he asked the Forge World to deploy a type of device that could effectively resist electromagnetic or anti-electromagnetic radiation. Psychic energy interferes with the communication network - laser communication.
In order to ensure the stability of communication, Forge World has placed tens of thousands of floating laser relay beacons in the atmosphere to serve as relay stations and dispatchers for laser transmitters and laser receivers in orbit and on the ground. point, so that unless the enemy creates smoke or physical light shielding in the atmosphere, it will be impossible to cut off the communication between the orbit and the ground, as well as the ground and the ground. It is also thanks to the industrial capabilities of the Forge World that it is possible to establish a system in two weeks. A complete communication network covering the world.
So, when an abnormal energy burst was detected on the ground, Soshyan immediately received the report.
In other words, the Necrontyrs of the Raisha Dynasty are ready to come out and have a chance with humans. This is good. Soshyan is also waiting for this moment, and the Eldar fleet is also lurking in the darkness at the edge of the sector. In the void, waiting for the Phoenix King's instructions.
“The first wave of the Necrons’ offensive must have come from their aircraft. All the field air defense forces of Scorch Oven City’s forward forces have all entered a state of alert. At the same time, the air defense arrays in each city have also entered the highest combat readiness. State, try not to take off low-speed aircraft such as Archaeopteryx. The main air superiority aircraft of the Necrons is the Doomsday Scythe. This fighter aircraft is extremely fast, has extremely powerful weapons, and has a self-healing function. Any current human aircraft will be used to fight it. Their only disadvantage is that they may be relatively small in number. They usually operate in formations of 3-5 units. Therefore, their response strategy is to use small high-speed aircraft as bait to attract them to the ambush area of the large laser array, and use ground firepower to Destroy it quickly."
Just in the bridge, Soshyan conveyed a series of battle plans and instructions to the integrated combat command center on the ground, and the logic sages and data sages would quickly expand them. for specific instructions.
At the same time, the appearance and some data of the enemy aircraft were also transmitted to the command center. As for why Soshyan knew the weapons and abilities of the Necrontyr so well, it was naturally thanks to Ada's help.
Especially the Frost Star Troupe.
The day after returning to orbit, Soshyan met the troupe director of Frost Stars.
Probably he was reminded by Veronica that the person he met with Soshyan was the troupe director of Guangming Drama. (This troupe is very special and has two troupe leaders). He came to meet with Soshyan mainly to bring three messages -
The first message is accurate information about the Necrontyr, especially weapons. In terms of equipment and personnel, it has basically filled a large number of gaps that still exist for those who do not know the so-called research of the Mechanicus. In the past, the empire basically turned a blind eye to the attacks of the Necrontyr. Being attacked did not count, and it might even be finished. We still don’t know the opponent’s specific equipment type and weapon type, so regardless of victory or defeat, the losses will be huge. This is the problem of lack of intelligence. The Alien Tribunal has always said that it is studying Necron, but Soshiyan really doesn’t know. They had been researching for so many years, but they didn't even have a specific weapon parameter report, so they had to go to Ada to get it.
It is not that the Royal Court did not have information about the Necrontyr before, but it was far from detailed. Frost Star brought extremely detailed information this time, which also benefited from their long-term relationship with Alaitoc Ark. Cooperate to "torture" ancient enemies, and even the heads of three dynasty overlords are now used as stage props in the troupe.
The importance of intelligence to the outcome of the war is self-evident. For example, without the performance information of the Necrontyr aircraft given by the Frost Stars, Soshyan would probably just think that their fighters are just "faster" "That's all. They will still choose to send Storm Falcons and other fighters to fight. The result will definitely be huge losses - the only ones that can fight against the Necrontyr fighter's incredible inertia-free engine are the equally unreasonable Ada fighters, and human aircraft cannot. When it comes to whether you can win a fight or not, you can't even catch up with the opponent.
The second message is an ancient prophecy called "The Night of Sorrow". This prophecy comes from the ancient ancestors of Alaitoc. It is said that their goals in building the ark and leaving their homeland are very different from other arks. A considerable number of the ancestors of Ark are very rare military personnel. They are a secret force of the ancient spirit empire. Before the Great Fall, they received a mysterious order from the top, so they entered the completed Aletto. In the midst of restraint.
The so-called "Night of Sorrow" is the "prophecy" or "instruction" left by those ancient ancestors, which reveals the true purpose of the existence of Alaitok's Ark - in the Ada race In their decline, they tried their best to weaken the power of their former enemies, the Necrontyr, to prevent the ancient enemy from inevitably returning to destroy the Eldar race. The superb skills and tactics possessed by Alaitoc's "Pathfinders" came from The military legacy of the ancient empire is why only Alaitoc has Pathfinders.
Originally, the Prophetic Council of Alaitoc understood that the Night of Grief was caused by the Sautec Dynasty, the strongest Necrontyr dynasty that had awakened, so there was the reckless battle of the Star Catastrophe, but the frost stars passed by After interpretation, they came to a different conclusion. They believed that the warning target of the Night of Sorrow should be the real leader of the Necrontyr, the so-called Council of the Three Saints and the dark conspiracy it was preparing, and judged the long-lost silence The king will return.
Originally, this was just a guess, but Veronica accidentally revealed Soshiyang’s hostility towards the Silent King in a conversation with the theater group’s filmmakers (in fact, Soshiyang and Veronica had thought about it long ago strategy to test the Harlequin Troupe's reaction to the Necrontyr), which was immediately keenly captured by the filmmakers. She immediately launched a powerful verbal offensive, and finally "persuaded" Veronica to tell the story about the Silent King and Soshyan. Part of the connection - mainly the conflict between the two on the Eleventh Legion, which immediately led the two troupe leaders to judge that the real enemy of the ancient prophecy is the Silent King Szarak!
This is why they eagerly expressed through Veronica that they wanted to communicate directly with Soshyan. (End of chapter)
