Diana calmed down her emotions and nodded.
Yaoen turned his head and stared out the window at the fleet going back and forth: "The logistics of the expeditionary force are entirely borne by one sector. This is unimaginable in the empire."
Astronomical amounts of materials are being gathered from all over the star region to the capital galaxy.
The transportation of some non-essential small quantities of materials even has to be contracted out to logistics companies in the sector.
Just seeing the ships coming and going, Yao En would think of what would happen next.
There will be many logistics companies that are desperate to buy transport ships and grow up because of the expedition, and then become interstellar logistics company giants. The value of the stocks of those little-known small logistics companies on the Tailong No. 1 Exchange may skyrocket in the blink of an eye. Tens of thousands times.
The transport ship business, which is the least valued part of the Beijuku Shipping Industry, will suddenly become the focus of the entire enterprise.
This is just the transportation of the least important materials in the logistics work of the expeditionary force.
Just this small thing can set off a strong wind that can affect the fate of billions of people.
As Diana said, it was truly an event.
"When we arrive at the fleet, you can go to the Mechanicus' ship. You should know which ship the Martian Witch is transported on."
"Yes father."
"Then I will go to the Glorious Humanity and participate in discussions on the expedition strategy with my colleagues."
After Yao En finished chatting about the trivial matters, Diana asked: "What are the Praetorian Guards going to do in this war?"
"I don't know, it's probably not to save people anyway." Yaoen shook his head.
In the last war, the Battle of Commorragh, the job of the Imperial Guard was to go deep behind enemy lines to rescue the human slaves who were abused by the Dark Eldar.
Although the Praetorian Guards often face and destroy many conspiracies alone, the fundamental thing they do is to save people.
Gray liked this kind of thing, but Yao En didn't.
Fortunately, the mission of the Praetorian Guards in this golden expedition will never be to save people, because no one can be saved in the Eye of Terror.
……
"The Praetorian Guards enter the bridge."
Yaoen stepped into the bridge of the Glorious Humanity at the moment the gate opened.
This largest battleship has become the core of the entire golden expedition fleet.
Each of the thousands of people gathered on the bridge was a unique and high-ranking figure.
Foros of the Lamenters Chapter had to sit in the second row here.
Yaoen found an empty seat in the first row and sat next to Gray, looking straight ahead.
"What I'm most worried about is the issue of ammunition supply." The Lion King and the leaders discussed the problem around the tactical table showing the entire Eye of Terror.
"Logistics issues are never a problem," Qin Mo said.
Ryan smiled, patted Qin Mo on the back, and continued talking to others.
He seemed to be in a good mood.
"You already know the strength of the navy, and about the army... In addition to the Space Marines, there will be twenty-seven Titan legions."
"There are even more mortal armies, totaling about 1.7 billion. They will gather at the Cadian Gate and join the expedition there."
"As for the general cannon used for siege... Let's put it this way, it is enough for you to send general cannon to Perturabo ten times."
"There are also C'tan, but they obey your orders at their own discretion, just like the Tyrones."
"In addition, there was originally a war group called the Malicious Warriors coming. I don't know if they are unwilling to come or if something happened on the way and delayed it."
Guilliman gave an approximate summary of the military strength, and even took the opportunity to make a sarcastic comment to Lion.
But Ryan, the Warmaster, was in a really good mood today, and he just smiled at Guilliman's sarcasm.
He didn't even blame the Space Marines who hadn't arrived for a long time: "It doesn't matter, those bastards come or not, it's not like we can't go on the expedition without them, right?"
Malicious warrior.
Qin Mo on the side frowned slightly. He had admired the reputation of this war group for a long time.
This chapter is the antonym of the Lamenters.
"That's great." Ryan leaned down, holding the tactical table with both hands, his eyes blazing, "A war where there is no need to consider logistics, a war where my three best brothers are under my command, even in the Great Expedition. I’ve never fought a good fight like this.”
"There are even more beautiful ones." Guilliman pointed to the hologram of the Eye of Terror. "An Inquisitor named Eisenhorn spent more than thirty years helping us figure out the internal situation of the Eye of Terror. .”
Chapter 690 Simple Strategy
The Eye of Terror was not originally called the Eye of Terror. It was an abnormal astronomical phenomenon named Cygnus X-30 by early astronomers of the Human Empire during the Great Expedition at the end of the 1th century.
The name Eye of Terror comes from Perturabo.
In the Eye of Fear, the laws of physics are almost non-existent, and all absurd scenes that cannot be created by imagination can be seen in the Eye of Fear.
Although all the information Eisenhorn investigated may be turned into useless waste paper in the next second, or even the previous second, the information he exchanged for half his life still has high reference value.
Lion noticed that the location of a Nurgle demon world called Anthrax was completely different from what he had remembered.
In many other important demon worlds, the locations of the kennels of hateful traitors such as the Death Guard and Thousand Sons are also different from those in memory.
The victory in the Battle of Cadia and the opening of the Black Stone Obelisk on Cadia greatly reduced the scope of the Eye of Terror.
The Cadian Gate defense area, which was originally at the forefront of the anti-chaos, is now at the rear, but the Demon World Shana II, which was supposed to confront it, is now in the deepest part of the Eye of Terror.
"The positions of those worlds, they change," Lane said.
"Yes, but luckily it won't change in the real universe." Guilliman pointed to a star area, "We can set that as the base point for the fleet to attack the Eye of Terror."
Belis Corona Sector.
This sector, like the Medusa sub-sector of the Scarus sector, belongs to the sector surrounding the Eye of Terror.
But the reason why Belis Corona can be used as a base point for the fleet is because it has a miracle.
A super orbital starport.
This is the only star port in the empire that can be compared with the Tyrone Star Port 1.
It was once described as a miracle by a big shot named Herfman.
This star port in the Bellis Corona sector cannot accommodate the expedition fleet, but it can at least accommodate most of the expedition fleet. As for other fleets, they can be dispersed to nearby sectors, not to mention that the entire expedition force is not required to rush in like a swarm. Into the eyes of fear.
"The expeditionary force was divided into four groups and launched attacks from the four directions of the Eye of Terror." Ryan pointed to the surroundings of the Eye of Terror. "In the void battle, our fleet's task is to escort the Black Stone. In the landing battle, our army also has to Escort Blackstone.”
Lane briefly summarized the strategy for the war.
The reason why this expedition to the Eye of Terror could be launched was not because Guilliman felt that the situation was now good enough to beat the four bastards in the subspace.
It's because the Void Dragon was found in the Tyrone Star Region, and the black stone technology can be applied more skillfully.
In the fleet, the Tyronian navy built many warships fashioned from black stone, plus the black stone fortress once found by Heat Death.
In the army, there are countless mobile black stone towers shaped by void dragons.
There is little room for the art of personal command in war. Due to the characteristics of the Eye of Terror and the existence of the Black Stone, there is only one strategy for war.
Escort Blackstone.
The fleet escorts the Blackstone ship to the predetermined Blackstone placement point in the galaxy and activates the Blackstone subspace suppression.
The army landed in the demon world, escorted the black stone to the two poles of the demon world, and opened the black stone.
It must be escorted by someone, and someone must clean up the remaining enemies nearby after it is opened, because the Black Stone can not only suppress the subspace, but also increase the influence of the subspace. If it falls into the hands of the Word Bearers, it will be an enemy.
It cannot be opened before it can be opened, because once it is opened and fully operated, the souls of the people within the affected area will be destroyed. Even if it is not fully operated, the combat effectiveness of the army will be greatly weakened. The only way is to send it as deep as possible, and then Open and always place it in a fixed position to sew part of the Eye of Terror.
"We are advancing layer by layer, fighting steadily, and gradually cannibalizing the entire Eye of Terror. No matter what the local results are, don't move forward hastily."
"If any of the four fleets finds that the enemy's strength is too strong, do not start a war, even if it is a war in a galaxy or a demon world, and wait for support."
Ryan told what needed attention, and then asked Qin Mo: "Excuse me, can the gods... be deployed as a combat force?"
Ryan had asked as politely as possible, because this war already relied on the Void Dragon among the Tyrone gods. If it gave up its fight, then there would be no expedition to the Eye of Terror, and everyone would go back to their own homes.
"Yes, but they cannot enter the Eye of Terror." Qin Mo said.
He is now extremely sure that the Star Gods cannot enter the subspace.
The Skinners known as Landugal's consciousness were previously found in the Battle of Commorragh. After studying it, the Star Gods found that it was indeed the remnant of Landugal, but this part of the remnant was ridiculously small. A fragment of the Star God that is only a fraction of the completeness is considered complete by comparison.
The final mimicry suggested that the Skinner had tortured three of the Seven. And the value of its existence is to add a madman named Landugal to the sector, and to allow the narrator to recall the past tortured by Landugal. It cannot even generate electricity for a ship.
In front of the Tailong gods, Qin Mo sentenced Landugal to death.
The Skinners were thrown into the warp and disappeared instantly.
The reason may involve the nature of existence. Just like the Four Gods were born in subspace and are part of the chaos of subspace, the Star Gods were born in the real universe and are part of the real universe.
Even if the reality membrane is gone, even if N psykers are blown into flesh to open the way for the Four Gods, it is impossible for the Four Gods to descend into the real universe.
A big demon has to shed his skin before entering the real universe.
Since the real universe is inherently weaker than the subspace, the consequences of Star Gods entering the subspace will be extremely serious.
"Oh, then... okay." Ryan just felt that those transcendent beings were unwilling to help.
"But as long as the Black Stone activates and suppresses the subspace, the Star Gods can appear around the Black Stone to participate in the battle. So as long as an area is shrouded by the Black Stone Obelisk, then this area will 100% never fall into the hands of the enemy again." Qin Mo Said again.
"That's great." Ryan looked at Qin Mo with a look that was more warm and friendly than Guilliman looked at Qin Mo. "Before... ahem... uh... I had a lot of prejudices against you... um... but After my father communicated with me, I realized that these prejudices were...so..."
"You don't need to say it, I know what you want to say." Qin Mo motioned to Ryan not to force his mouth.
Relieved, Ryan smiled and nodded.
The Lion King continues to strategize the war.
Although the general tasks to be done have been decided, the war itself is an extremely huge undertaking, and many people have to do many things.
There are still many details to be worked out.
Whether a warmaster is competent depends on whether he can successfully lead a large group of people with different opinions and complicated interpersonal relationships to fight for the same goal.
Two transport personnel of a certain transport fleet, a certain transport ship, and a certain transport team in the expeditionary force have interpersonal relationships. One person may not have a good relationship with the other person, which may lead to stumbling between each other at work and affecting the transportation. efficiency.
Two generals who have a bad relationship may start fighting before meeting the enemy, and may even betray each other by not supporting each other on the battlefield.
During the march of a large army, a car may be left behind because of a trivial incident.
