Warhammer III

Chapter 2: The Lord's Duties and the Strategic Intelligence Department's Speculations



Sisera left the Blackstone Fortress of Tianyuan for a year. When she set foot on the ground of the Blackstone Fortress again, Tai Yue was already waiting for her here, along with the great mentor guard Jerome and the sage Della. .

This scene couldn't help but make Sisela miss the expedition life on the Blackstone Fortress. She walked towards Thailand and Vietnam with brisk steps, and there was a little excitement in her clear voice:

"Grand Master, this is the letter of appointment given to you by the Council of High Lords of Terra!"

As Sisela spoke, she took out a precious wooden box covered with fine silk. She then opened the wooden box with slender white fingers, revealing an envelope with a red wax seal from the Ministry of Internal Affairs inside.

"The Emperor is on top, Terra is on top!"

Taiyue took the appointment letter. After the wax seal broke, he took out the appointment letter made of thick white parchment. The frame of the appointment letter had a special grid and golden patterns, symbolizing the authority and etiquette of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Text composed of standard letters is presented to everyone:

The Council of High Lords of Terra sends its cordial greetings to the Grand Master of Terra.

After the recommendation of the Ecclesiastical Pope Litra and the careful consideration of the Council of High Lords of Terra, you are hereby appointed as the Lord of the Nachmond Sub-sector, with full responsibility for the rule of the Nachmond Sub-sector and the Nachmond Corridor. .

The Nachmund Corridor is the key hub connecting the empire's holy territory and the empire's dark side, and is the strategic core area of ​​the empire. Lord Guilliman believes that with the Grand Master's leadership skills and integrity, he will be able to build the Nachmund Corridor into the safest fortress Great Wall in the Empire.

As the Lord of the Nachmund sub-sector, you have the following powers:

Responsible for the internal affairs of the Nachmund sub-sector empire world, and has the power to appoint and remove the planetary governor;

Maintain the security of the Nachmund sub-sector and protect the Imperial world from the threats of Chaos, aliens and heretics;

Ensure the safety of subspace routes in the Nachmund Corridor and guard against enemy damage to the black stone buildings in the Nachmund Corridor;

Warning Star and the worlds north of it located on the dark side of the Empire, Herik III, and Darova are managed by other departments of other empires and are not under the rule;

Regular reports on the situation in the Nachmond sub-sector will be submitted to the Imperial Regent, Lord Guilliman, for review.

You will exercise power on behalf of the High Lords Council of Terra, and I believe that under your leadership, the Nahmond sub-sector will become an immortal territory of the Human Empire!

- Chancellor of the Council of High Lords of Terra - Thiren, execution date: 42

Tai Yue looked at the appointment letter in his hand and strengthened his determination. Even if the doomsday prophecy is difficult to change, even if there is little hope, he will lead the Ninth Brotherhood and the imperial troops to fight for the empire, fight for humanity, and face it bravely. The arrival of the unknown day'.

Sisera then added:

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs will successively notify the planetary governor Terra in the Nachmond sub-sector of the contents of the appointment letter through the astropaths. The High Lords Council of Terra can't pass this resolution this time without the support of the national religion Pope Ritra. Recommendation, as well as the expectations and trust of the Imperial Regent Guilliman in the Grand Master! "

"Is the Grand Master familiar with the Ecclesiarch Litra?"

Jerome asked curiously.

Tai Yue shook his head and said in a guessing tone:

"I haven't seen Ritra, but during the Cardinal election in the Anas sector, I stopped the conspiracy of the fallen Cardinal Nahum. Of course, it may also be because we eliminated the demon primarch. The imperial state religion represented by La recognized it.”

Having said this, Cardinal Catherine's face flashed in Taiyue's mind, wondering how she was doing now.

"Ms. Sisela, have you received any response to the proposals from the Forge World and Terra Research Base?"

Sage Della didn't wait for the information she wanted to know, so she asked.

"The Adeptus Mechanicus agreed to transform the planet Herik III into a forge world. The construction of the forge world will be responsible for the construction of the forge world. After the transformation of this world is completed, on the one hand, it will research alien technology, and on the other hand, it will support the Nachmund sub-star. area weapons and equipment.

The Inquisition's Foreign Order also agreed to transform the planet Darova into a test planet for the Genestealers, and the Forge Moon Omega-3 to transform into a research base for the Tyranids. Relevant research was conducted by Della Sage, a strategic subordinate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Intelligence Department will provide comprehensive intelligence support.

The Order of Anti-foreigners also made a new request. A watch fortress will be built on the planet Darova to house the Astartes of the Death Watch Chapter. It will be supervised by the newly appointed Grand Inquisitor Kriptman to ensure that research Base security. "

The new forge world and the Tyranids research planet were taken over by the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Inquisition, so although these two planets are within the Nachmund Corridor, they are not included in the rule of the Thai-Vietnamese Lords.

The resolution that Sisera brought back with these two demands had little to do with Taiyue and the Ninth Brotherhood, so he told everyone at the end.

The Strategic Intelligence Department she mentioned is a secret department established after the invasion of the Hive Fleet. It is composed of high-level alien inquisitors and biological sages of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Their primary mission was to compile data on Tyranid activity and deliver these secret reports directly to the High Lords of Terra to determine the Tyranid's weaknesses and develop appropriate countermeasures for future Hive Fleet invasions.

The OSS's analysis of all the details of the Tyranid invasion so far led them to a shocking conclusion:

The Hive Fleet currently entering the galaxy is only part of a larger whole, and the main force of this whole will soon enter the galaxy. Even if the Empire mobilizes all Imperial residents in all star fields, it will be difficult to defeat these invaders.

Tai Yue frowned when he heard this. He had learned about the Tyran War and knew about the deeds of Inquisitor Kriptman.

The Alien Inquisition reappointed Kriptman as an Inquisitor and asked him to supervise the Tyranid Zerg Research Base. This meant that the danger level of the Tyranid Zerg had increased. This also meant that the Alien Inquisition had abandoned conservative defense methods and began to explore some extreme or even heretical methods.

Della and Tai Yue looked at each other. They both understood that the specific situation might require Kriptman to come to the Nachmond Corridor and ask the Inquisitor in person.

Tai Yue then led Sisela back to the command center. During this period, Sisela reminded:

"There are also opponents of this appointment among the Terran High Lords, including the Inquisition representative Alx. I guess these three proposals have dissatisfied the pure faction Inquisitors. Researching aliens, using aliens, and Astartes intervening in mortal politics are all what they oppose."

Tai Yue nodded. The factions within the Inquisition are complicated, and the alien metal organs in the Ninth Brotherhood are easy to be provoked by Inquisitors with ulterior motives.

However, Tai Yue’s main task at the moment is to deal with the Terra Zerg. He decided to first support Sage Dela in building a Terra Zerg research base.
