Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 495 The Elephant Saving Plan—The Black Shield in Watching

"Brigadier General Georgi Kob?"

On the bridge of the Silver Dawn, Calvin took off his helmet and placed it beside him, then looked at the middle-aged man on the other side of the video signal.

The uniform of the Imperial Navy seemed a little tight on his body, and from the lackluster military strategy on his chest, Calvin did not find any record that made him shine.

And it is.

Under the background that the entire star field is in a state of constant front-line preparation or war due to the threat of the Eye of Terror.

A middle-aged naval officer did not die in battle, nor was he promoted. Instead, in a war-torn environment ahead, he was assigned to a rear position responsible for the safety of the waterway.

A force with light cruisers as the main battleship and four destroyers is the entire force under the command of the man in front of him. In Calvin's eyes, such a marginalized function can itself prove that the other party has absolutely nothing good in the naval system. evaluation of.

"Yes, sir." Cobu replied with a serious face, and the tight muscles on his back betrayed his nervousness.

The changes in the Tribunal were a secret to the naval system, and the identity of the person in front of him was a mystery to him.

In addition to the shocking size of the Argent Dawn, the effective information he could receive was pitiful.

But this is enough. The Queen of Glory is not only the belief of the Astartes, but also the ultimate dream of every naval officer.

When such a magnificent silver space behemoth appeared in front of him like a dream, any fool knew what to choose.

"Tell me about the situation here." Calvin waved his hand to signal Cobb to relax, and then looked down at the data pad in his hand.

The operation log of Belis Airport has been transmitted, and the information of "Cobb" in front of him is also among them.

Although cold data was always the best retelling of facts, he still wanted to hear his subjective assessment of the battlefield ahead from the commander's mouth.

"The aliens have cut off the Astropath's network and are harassing the channels to the outside world." Cobb thought for a while and then said.

"Continue." Calvin continued to look at the information on the data pad without raising his head.

Several hours had passed from the time the fleet jumped out of the subspace to the completion of the first battle.

Although the astropaths of the Argent Dawn did not participate in the war, information from Cypramundi was constantly flowing to the bridge through the astropaths' translations.

And Calvin, who has deep psychic power, did not even need to wait for the text to be converted, and had already read the pessimism of the heads of the star domain authorities in advance.

The Obscurity Star Territory has not rested for thousands of years, and the Star Sector Fleet, which has always been in a state of combat, is also recognized by the Imperial Naval Academy as the "officer's meat grinder."

The direction of the Eye of Terror already restrained the main force of the Star Territory. After investing limited resources in the alien war in the Gothic direction, the adults in the Star Territory capital really had no cards they could play.

"But I judge that the situation there should not be as serious as imagined."

"Oh?" Calvin finally raised his head and glanced at him with interest.

From the information displayed on the data pad in his hand, Cobu, who was born into a family of navy soldiers, was very different from the resoluteness and determination advocated by his family tradition.

This Mesozoic officer, who graduated 100 years ago, has been famous for being extremely good at "preserving active troops" since he entered the army.

The transport fleet, escort fleet, main cruiser and even today's mixed battle group have never given this guy any courage;
If he can fight, he will fight, but if he can't turn around and run away, this guy's fleet will have extremely low battle losses, and he will also gain the contempt of his allies and colleagues.

However, his experience of serving in the military since the end of 38k and even participating in a frontal war against the Eye of Chaos made the Imperial Navy of the Hazy Star Territory hate him and had to give him a normal promotion.

Being able to run is probably the only advantage of this soldier who did not obtain the rank of brigadier general until middle age (imperial aristocrats generally live far longer than civilians, usually over 200 years old);

And on this occasion of assessing the war situation, the bold remarks he made were obviously inconsistent with his previous personality - especially with his previous negative report on Sai Pramundi.

Everything happens for a reason, and Calvin wanted to know what that "cause" was.

"We have been in a state of harassment. The alien fleet is very flexible and is purposefully cutting off our information channels.

but!But precisely because of this, I am more convinced that the aliens do not have the ability to completely eliminate our fleet.

They are delaying, and what we need most right now is to break the blockade! "

"Well said!" Calvin stood up and reverse-transmitted the records on the data board to the other side.

The most prominent position on the screen in front of General Cobb is his previous report on the direction of the capital of the Obscure Star Territory.

"Explain it." Calvin grinned.At the same time, in the starry sky, Calvin's fleet, after converging with Cobb's battle group, happened to have three main warships in a Z-shaped position, surrounding the light cruiser.

The atmosphere of the video conference was quite delicate so far, but both Calvin and Cobb knew what would happen if the latter failed to explain.

The Inquisition never rubs sand in its eyes, and the difference Cobb showed in front of others and behind others was enough for Calvin to accuse him of being contaminated without any investigation.

"Ahem..." Cobb, who was finally not choking on his own saliva, cleared his throat and finally regained the ability to speak.

Calvin, on the other hand, was unhurried, just waiting for the other party's explanation with a smile on his face.

"Actually, Star Territory has a mobile force that can be used on the nearby battlefield. But..."

"But what?" Calvin asked.

"But that is within your jurisdiction, and the star domain authorities have no right to transfer it."

Cobb said as he transferred the data in his hand, and on the data pad in front of Calvin, an eye-catching blue hexagonal logo also lit up simultaneously.

"Watch the fortress?" Calvin looked at the exclusive mark belonging to the Order of Foreigners and asked with some confusion.

Let’s not talk about the battlefield ahead. Before there were any changes, it was a battle against the orcs. Let’s just say that the Tribunal is part of the Obscure Star Territory authorities. There is no reason why there would be troops here that cannot be mobilized?

He first looked at Cobb on the other side of the screen, then remembered that the other party could not know this kind of information, so he looked at the representative of the Tribunal behind him and motioned to the latter to retrieve the relevant information.

And the latter did not disappoint him. The high-level authority from the Holy Hammer Order was entered, and the agreements within the three major orders were activated by Calvin's personal key;
On the screen on the bridge of the Silver Dawn, a Death Watch fortress monastery named "Desperate Watch" appeared in everyone's eyes.

In this fortress monastery, which is enough to support the training and rest of thousands of Astartes warriors, a force of nearly a thousand "Black Shields" is shown to be on standby.

The leader of this force was even more familiar to Calvin:
"Hmm, Talos? It's been so long..."
