Chapter 35
"waaaagh!!!"

"Damn aliens don't talk about martial arts! How about your warriors!"

Facing the vast number of puppets pouring in, the Thunder Warriors cursed, the bolt guns fired one after another, and the chainsword kept waving, the puppets couldn't get close for a while.

They took advantage of the terrain and fought and retreated, stalling for time, waiting for reinforcements from the ground.

Salamander said: "Your Excellency Commander, why don't you let me go, and the battle can be settled quickly!"

Said shook his head: "No, it will be resolved immediately!"

At this time, the puppet in the rear lifted out a sentry mecha cannon, aimed at the Thunder Warrior and blasted it out.

The ball of light passed through the top of the puppet's head, and hit the Thunder Warrior heavily. It was blown up immediately, and a gap appeared in the formation. The puppet took the opportunity to pounce on it and self-destruct.

Even though the Thunder Warrior's battle armor is tough, it is still unable to resist in the face of tens of thousands of puppets self-destructing.

The Thunder Warrior was engulfed by the explosive flames, and the flames dissipated, leaving only a pile of charred wreckage.

Salamander watched blankly, surprised that the battle could still be fought like this.

At this time, more puppets rushed to the shield generator, detonated the bombs on their bodies, and successfully destroyed it under the explosion from a distance.

On the ground, the warlord who had fought hard for a long time discovered that at some point when the shield light curtain disappeared, the bombers of the Imperial Army flew overhead and dropped a large number of bombs.

In the rear of the imperial army, thousands of artillery roared, tilting shells towards the position, submerging the genetic warriors in a sea of ​​flames.

The shelling continued for a day and a night, and when the roar stopped, there was no living thing in the core fortress of the Caucasus.

So far, Said has successfully pacified the Caucasus warlord, and proudly said: "Brother Huang, the Caucasus is done, do you need reinforcements?"

The emperor calmly said: "My side is about to be resolved, go to Nordic to rest first, and I will come to you later."

"okay!"

Nordic is located near the Scandinavian Peninsula in northern Europe. It was one of the first areas conquered by the empire, and now it has become the rear of the imperial army.

When the Said puppet arrived, it was warmly received by Malcador. The economic emperor said warmly:

"As expected of His Majesty's brother, the Caucasus warlord was so easily pacified with so few casualties!"

In this battle, none of the mortal auxiliaries survived, and a few salamanders were injured, but their recovery was strong, and they recovered as before in just the second day. It can be said that there were zero casualties!

Malcador was in charge of the empire's economic logistics, troop mobilization, and training. The head of the family knew that Chai Migui was expensive, and he was struggling to raise war resources all day long.

If the casualties in every future battle are so low, this family will be fine.

Not only that, during the war, puppets took over several factories, and all the workers used puppets, and the production capacity was several times that of humans!
If puppets replace workers, it will not only save manpower, but also increase output and improve logistics.

Therefore, he is very enthusiastic about Said, but Said is secretly vigilant, knowing that this kind-hearted old man is an old man, and there must be something for him.

Despite some guesses in his heart, he still asked:
"You and I are loyal servants of the emperor. If you need help, just tell me. As long as it is beneficial to your majesty and the empire, I will help you."

Malcador said boldly: "His Royal Highness is refreshing, you must know the value of a puppet!"

Saeed nodded: "Of course, using puppets to replace humans on the battlefield and work in factories can save human resources and increase output. That's why I sent my power to Terra!"

Malcador said: "We very much hope that the puppet can contribute to the empire, but one doubt must be resolved."

Said wondered: "What doubts?"

Malcador said with a smile: "Loyalty! If there is a way to guarantee the loyalty of the puppet..."

Said was taken aback for a moment, and then he said angrily: "Don't you trust me? My loyalty to the Emperor is no less than yours!"

Malcador said calmly:

"Don't get excited, Your Royal Highness, you and I have both experienced the Iron Man Rebellion. Once you let the puppet join the empire, you should know the risks involved."

Puppets are like artificial intelligence. When they enter factories and the army, they can reduce casualties and improve efficiency. When they enter the Ministry of the Interior, they can improve governance and efficiency.

In this way, the economy, the army, and internal affairs are all infiltrated by puppets. If Said wants to rebel, the harm caused will not be inferior to that of Horus.

Said understood his concerns, but he didn't think it was worth worrying about, shaking his head and saying:

"Master Ma, you don't believe me, don't you believe Brother Huang? You are the biggest disloyalty!"

Malcador frowned and said, "Your Highness, why did you say such a thing!"

Said said contemptuously: "The power of soldiers comes from Brother Huang. When he reformed me, why didn't he take preventive measures? If you doubt me, you doubt the Emperor, and you are disloyal!"

"You..." Malcador was speechless, and Said sighed:
"Since the Ministry of the Interior doesn't trust me, I will withdraw all the puppets and return the land of soldiers and trees to the Ministry of the Interior, how about it?"

Said couldn't help but despise his twisted character. No wonder he and the Primarch were at odds in history. Although he finally proved his loyalty with his life, Said really couldn't like him.

With this attitude of wanting to use you but distrusting you, and hoping you understand, Said is particularly awkward.

Thinking of this, Said was about to end the conversation. Since Malcador didn't trust him, he should leave.

Anyway, without puppets, human beings would be no different. The Great Expedition continued smoothly, and at worst, more people would die.

Malcador was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked to stay: "Prince, please stay, it's all for His Majesty, don't be impulsive!"

Said was determined and said calmly: "I don't like you, Malcador. As an immortal and powerful psychic, you think about problems like ordinary people!"

"I can't communicate with you, let alone reach any cooperation with you, goodbye!"

At this time, a gentle voice came from next to my ear, saying: "Malcador is indeed wrong, let me talk to you!"

"Brother Huang!"

Said turned his head and found that it was the emperor. He rushed forward in surprise and dawdled:

"Wuwu, you're finally back. This old man is so annoying. He actually doubted my loyalty to you and alienated us as brothers! It's really disgusting!"

The Emperor said to Malcador: "You go out first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Malcador left, the Emperor said: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has the most mortals. Malcador deals with mortals every day, which inevitably affects the way of thinking."

Said said: "But he is an immortal and psychic just like us, but he is as petty as a mortal. No wonder Horus hates him!"

In the later period of the Great Crusade, the emperor separated the government from the military. The mortal elite represented by Malcador was in charge of Zheng Quan, and the Primarch headed by Horus was in charge of the army.

Prior to this, Horus had single-handedly grasped the military and government, and the separation of the military and the government undoubtedly weakened Horus' authority, making Horus feel bad, and becoming one of the reasons for the rebellion.

The emperor shook his head: "Sayyed, Horus is wrong to think that way. Superhuman politics cannot last. After the subspace is eliminated, power will eventually return to the hands of mortals."

Said agreed: "But that is after the eradication of subspace, when humans dominate the galaxy, but before that, the empire needs Superman!"

The emperor was noncommittal, not wanting to entangle this topic, and said: "As for the position of Bingmu in the empire, how about referring to the Mechanicus in the prophecy?"

 Ma Xiangye is a great man. Before the Horus rebellion, he was the prime minister of the emperor, just like Xiao He was to Liu Bang. He established the Ministry of the Interior, the Assassin Tribunal, and the Judgment Tribunal, and designed the imperial system. It can be said that the empire can last for so long. Without him a credit

  While the Emperor was busy cultivating the Webway, he was both father and mother to the Primarch
  Out of secrecy, the emperor did not tell the Webway project, and the Primarchs could not listen to it, so he hated the old horse
  Later, when the military and government were separated, the hatred further intensified, and there were conflicts of other Primarchs’ ideas. For example, Mortarion hated psionic energy and wanted to kill old horses; deleting the materials of the Second and Eleventh Primarchs offended a large number of Primarchs.
  It may be because of the birth of a mortal, the angle of thinking is more likely to be different from that of the Primarch, such as suggesting that the Emperor engage in a Primarch, which is conducive to family harmony... emmm
  It is not difficult to imagine a generation gap with the Astartes Superman, it is said that the Primarch always shows off his huge body to him...

  A little violent theory, Ma Xiangye has the ability, the way of thinking of mortals can't be wrong, it's just that he can't communicate with his colleagues
