Chapter 3199 Coordinating the overall situation
"Is there such a thing?"
Just when Soshyan expressed surprise at the waste of the Ministry of Military Affairs, the representative of Ekvolya also said in a monotonous voice:
"We have encountered this kind of thing many times. There were hundreds of Leman Russ tanks stacked in the warehouse for more than 1,900 years. It was not until the director ordered the 1919th warehouse inventory that such a batch was discovered. The brand-new tanks have been kept in the warehouse, and the order was placed 3,500 years ago. Later, the Ministry of Military Affairs did not send anyone to improve them, so all these tanks had to be remanufactured. "
On the third floor of the bridge, Amnak, who was pressing his elbows against the railing and sipping Eldar wine from a metal wine glass, chuckled lightly and shook his head after hearing this.
Soshyan on the throne nodded slightly.
"That's the problem. The empire's inefficiency stems from concerns and preparations for separatism. I won't deny this. The high lords are trying their best to gather all power in Terra, which is also the key to maintaining the empire. This is It is applicable to the Hazy Star Territory, the Pacific Star Territory, and even the Extreme Star Territory, but for the Storm Star Territory, it does more harm than good. First of all, the Storm Star Territory’s own defense strength is weak. What is the situation of the Baka fleet? Everyone should Everyone knows that it is the Emperor's blessing to be able to take care of the eastern part of the Storm Sector, but it can be said to be completely powerless for the central and western parts. Even the war against the Greenskins that is currently raging in the Loki Sector, they may not be able to help. Not to mention the archdiocese's war against the Tyranids, it finally sent a small fleet and withdrew. In this case, inefficient administrative instructions and inefficient production task arrangements will It is fatal, because it will cause the various forging worlds to have no power to protect themselves, and it will also cause the armed forces of the Storm Star Territory to have no power to protect the territory and people of the empire.”
The four sages did not speak because they were waiting for Soshyan to get to the point.
"War relies on more than just warriors. Even I am still powerless in the face of the endless sea of insects. War requires a continuous supply of high-quality soldiers, a steady stream of weapons and equipment, and an adequate supply of military supplies. Even the supply of consumer goods that can quell unrest on the rear, and all of this depends on the efficiency of the various forge worlds of major manufacturers of mechanical equipment and technological products, and now most of them The diocese has tens of millions of troops fighting bloody battles with the Tyranids, and the supplies it needs to consume every day are an astronomical number. I believe that Zhao Akada has the most intuitive feeling for this pressure. For this reason, I, Soshyan Alek Xie, in the name of Governor Naisen, initiated the establishment of an organization to promote communication, coordination and collaboration among various forge worlds, and to improve the efficiency of each forge world."
After he finished speaking, the representative of Ulanhuda immediately said:
"We agree with Commander Soshyan's opinion. There used to be a great steel corridor between the Storm Star Territory and the Pacific Star Territory. It was the pride of Omnissiah and the key to maintaining the empire's two star territories. However, it is Broken during the Great Rebellion, it is time to restore its power and put it into the hands of true heroes to make the Empire and humanity great again!"
The representative of Ulanhuda spoke very impassionedly, but since there were all mechanical sages present, there would be no emotional fluctuations. Even the representative of Ekvolia directly asked:
"Lord Soshiyang, does this proposal mean that we have to break away from the system and supervision of Mars?"
Soshyan shook his head.
"Of course not. I always emphasize that our actions are based on 'self-defense' and 'protecting the country and the people'. There is absolutely no separatist tendency or attempt to establish another Terra. Maybe people who don't know about it will think that we are The division is being carried out by force, but both the Eleventh Legion and the Forge World to which you belong will still shoulder their obligations to the empire.”
"But if this is the case, then what is the significance of this organization? What do you mean by improving efficiency? After all, we still have to bear the production instructions issued by Mars and the High Lords Council." Soshiyang heard this, He raised his hand slightly, and then a huge flexible screen hung down from above, and lines of text and simple illustrations appeared.
"To put it simply, first of all, although each foundry world has a relatively complete industrial system, it still has advantages and disadvantages, especially when it comes to cutting-edge products such as ships and Titans. There is a very broad space for cooperation. Secondly, each forge world can Coordinate production tasks and plan new projects to avoid additional production waste. In addition, we will also make a reasonable plan for production resources. Of course, this is not an instruction, but a solution for everyone to negotiate together. ”
When Soshiyang introduced it, the sages were also checking and recording the relevant text descriptions in detail.
After a while, Zhao Akada’s representative asked:
"Lord Soshyan, what is the structure of this organization you are talking about?"
"It is composed of a five-person parliament and four departments. The five-person parliament is the highest body. Each of the four forges appoints a representative to take office. If a new forge world joins in the future, more seats will be added, but there will always be one appointed by the legion. personnel are employed, and the four departments are the Planning Department, the Resources Department, the Communication Department and the Logistics Department, and the organization is located in the Naisen Galaxy ”
Soshyan then explained in detail the roles of the four departments.
The Planning Department literally provides "guidance" for the production and construction of each forge world. In fact, it is essentially the department where the Legion puts forward demands to each forge world. Of course, it will also coordinate their production tasks to ensure that the empire can When needed, it can have more power to build itself and provide assistance for the legion's war.
The Resources Department coordinates all the existing resources of the Legion, including the Neisen System, the Archdiocese, the Blue Ant Mining Complex, and even the merchant families of the Maelstrom, and provides resources to each forging world according to the plans of the Planning Department. Provide sufficient raw materials, or jointly develop certain resource planets.
The communication department is very simple. It mainly creates an academic exchange platform or technology trading platform for each foundry world. It is completely voluntary and depends on their own needs.
The logistics department is the focus, and it is also a key link for Soshiyan to improve the efficiency of the foundry world.
As we all know, at least 40% of the empire's overall inefficiency comes from transportation inefficiency. This is not only inefficient, but also extremely unstable. Even the Forge World's own transportation fleet often suffers significant delays or even disappears. , this is determined by the instability of subspace, and the efficiency of transportation can be said to determine the production efficiency of the forging world, because if something is made and cannot be transported to the place where it is needed, it means that it has not been made, and it is just like being in the warehouse. Just like things that have been gathering dust for hundreds or thousands of years, they can only be destroyed or recycled in the end. In addition, the shortage of raw materials caused by poor transportation will also weaken the production capacity of the foundry world.
