Chapter 2935: Hating iron but not steel


Chapter 2935: Iron cannot become steel

". Chapter leader, currently 240 million militia elites recruited from various worlds are concentrated in the twenty-nine large-scale recruit training camps in the Casparen system. However, due to the poor facilities and the heavy pressure on logistical supplies, the training progress is relatively slow.”

In a highly technological side hall inside the Holy City of Cardinal World, Soshiyang stood on the colorful floor with his hands behind his back. On the screen, he raised his head slightly and stared at the various numbers, text, and images on the huge screen, while Ustad introduced it on the side.

"As for the Holy Armor Army, 31,745 people have been gathered so far. However, many of them are not adapted to large-scale combat and collective life, and their discipline is relatively poor. The entire organization is still relatively chaotic."

Seeing that Soshyan did not speak, Ustad hesitated, but continued his introduction.

"At present, the currency of the archdiocese has been basically unified, but considering that the current priority of promethium is to be supplied to the frontline troops, and the archdiocese's industrial level is low and there is no huge energy demand, Ms. Sillu made some localized modifications. The implementation of bimetallism, that is, the use of two currency anchors, promethium and gold, therefore this currency is also named gold promethium coupons, which has been gradually spread in various worlds, and the corresponding banking institutions have also been led by the Cardinal World Deacons Established, named Jihad Bank, with its headquarters in the Cardinal World. When all worlds are included in the trading scope of gold and promethium coupons, the financial system of the archdiocese will undergo fundamental changes. All physical taxes and precious metal taxes will be replaced by currency taxes. According to The current tithe standard of the archdiocese is estimated to be 99458.21 trillion in tax revenue by the next settlement year. "

"Due to the currency reform, the logistics system is currently divided into two types: collection and transaction. The methods are parallel, but due to the violent war damage and "

Ustad paused. He originally wanted to say that Talos led the repressive activities. The midnight lord's methods are sometimes too cruel, although it is true that The gene stealers were quickly suppressed, but it also had a great impact on local production and life. In particular, Talos also liked to attack the planet's ruling class, which caused various problems in Ustad's logistics organization. difficulty.

But everyone knows that Talos is closer to Soshyan than anyone else, even the blood descendants of his own legion.

“Why did you stop?”


Soshyan's plain voice made Ustad purse his lips, and after a few seconds he said softly:

". And the destruction of gene stealers, resulting in food and various basic materials, such as textiles, basic industries The demand for goods and so on has been unable to meet the logistical gap."

"If you have anything to say, just say it."

Soshiyang's voice suddenly became stern, and Ustad was speechless for a moment.

“You think Talos’s behavior is inappropriate, so have you communicated with him?”

"I"

"I gave you all the authority in the rear. From that moment on, you are no longer the company commander. You are the acting chapter commander, or even the acting legion commander. Talos and I have a good relationship. But he is just a company commander. If you have any ideas, don’t you even dare to tell him?”

“I think this may be their style. It’s possible to intervene”

But Soshyan exposed Ustad's disguise very bluntly.

“But you are dissatisfied in your heart. You realize that the actions of Talos and the 11th Company have caused trouble for your work, but you just hide it in your stomach, and then tell me here that you have encountered problems at work. "Trouble, why don't you talk to Talos? Don't you even have the courage to express your opinion?"

Soshyan's harsh words left Ustad speechless. He could only lower his head and accept the punishment obediently.

Seeing him like this, Soshyan couldn't help but sigh, and then waved his hand. "That's it. The past is in the past. You can continue. What is the current situation of food and living material supplies."

Ustad raised his head, cleared his throat and continued. Said:

“The Casparen system where the cardinal world is currently located can only meet 67% of the daily transportation capacity demand due to the lack of transport ships. Moreover, due to many reasons such as wars and taxation, the overall food production in various places has declined. It has dropped by 17%. Some planets have begun to suffer from famine and requested to reduce the jihad tax and religious tithe. However, after the deacons estimated the current situation, they concluded that the food and biological materials of the Casperen system were Supply has also begun to be in short supply, and food prices on some planets have increased by 230%. However, even so, food, textiles, metal products and other basic survival supplies are still in short supply, and those faith guards who are training consume astronomical amounts of food every day."

After listening, Soshyan said nothing, just looked at the rows of data.

After a while, he said slowly:

"Your countermeasure is to hope that the nobles, high priests and businessmen will assume more responsibilities, right? You may even use tough measures. Loot their homes.”

“Yes.”

“What’s the effect?”

"The effect is not ideal. The main reason is -"

"The main reason is that you still haven't understood this place carefully."

Soshiyan turned around and looked at Ustad, Frowning slightly.

“You think it’s enough to imitate everything I did in the Maelstrom, but you ignore many issues. For example, the Archdiocese is a remote area far away from the core area of ​​the empire. There are almost no imperial institutions. The whirlpool has a complete Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ministry of Legal Affairs, and Ministry of Military Affairs. Any organization that can be controlled can extend its will. Here, you are the only one. Your fist cannot hit everyone's head. Faced with so many In a world with such a vast area, your power cannot be extended, and your authority is not enough for them to support you with everything. Your rough methods only aggravate their avoidance and resistance mentality, Ustad, no Everyone is afraid of the word Astartes, especially Astartes who is more than ten light years away. It is useless to just raise the butcher knife. You still have a honey pot in your hand. You have to tell them how they will benefit from participating in this holy war. I have already demonstrated it to you in the Maelstrom. For example, let the young people from the planet's ruling class enter the Faith Watch and directly become officers, and the senior Faith Watch you formed There are almost no such people among the officers."

"Commander, these people are just losers, they don't know how to fight, and they have many bad habits, I"

"Do you expect these armies to resist Tyranids?"

When asked, Ustad was stunned for a moment, and finally lowered his head.

Soshiyang shook his head helplessly.

“I never expected Faith Watch to lead this war. Although I don’t like to use this word, their role is cannon fodder and material to fill the front. It doesn’t matter who leads them. Big, Ustad, if you want to manage mortals well, you have to have sand in your eyes. I once had a long conversation with a philosopher. He said that people have seven emotions and six desires. To live, you need to eat constantly. I want to sleep more comfortably and be lazy, like Rozim, what do you think of others?”
