Warhammer: My Brother Is the Emperor.

Chapter 137 Encirclement and Suppression of Battle Planets, an Empire with Undercurrents
The Mechanicus really has some background. Not long after participating in the research on the remains of the Sautek Dynasty, the empire's navigation technology ushered in a new breakthrough.

By upgrading the existing materials, the speed of conventional power engines can be increased from 0.9 times the speed of light to double the speed of light.

Don't underestimate the 0.1 times increase. When the speed reaches the speed of light, the space will be distorted and the distance will be shortened. Not only can the speed be increased, but the journey can also be shortened.

This technological breakthrough has eased the conflict between Said and the Mechanicus. It can be said to put aside disputes and work together for the greater good.

However, this is only the appearance. The information submitted by Malcador and the Loyalists shows that the Independence Faction is disintegrating, and most of the members flow to the Separatists and Loyalists.

The separatist faction is growing, and there are faint signs of fighting against the loyalist faction, which aroused Said's vigilance.

But he could only bury his doubts in his heart. Now is not the time to get entangled in this matter. The day when the prophesied fighting planets gather is coming.

The more maneuverable the fleet, the farther the ambush location will be, the lower the probability of being discovered, and the higher the success rate of the ambush.

Due to the instability of the subspace, Said let the fleet rely on conventional power to collect the net, so he did not dare to deploy the fleet too far to avoid delaying the time to collect the net
However, if the deployment distance is too close, the beasts will be alerted and the ambush will fail.

Breakthroughs in navigation technology have solved this problem, allowing fleets to be deployed to farther and more concealed places, increasing the success rate of ambushes.

As soon as Said gave an order, he immediately transformed the prince's fleet, and then deployed the army to the void around the ambush point.

According to Said's plan, when the battle planets enter the target galaxy, Said will first activate the black stone array to trap them, and then dispatch an army to surround and kill them.

Just to be sure, Saeed didn't tell the other factions about the gathering of battle planets, but let the Prince's Legion eat them alone.

It's not that he wants to monopolize the battle planet, but that there are many participants, and there are many variables. As the most critical battle of the beast war, Said must rule out all accidents.

In a word, he is worried about letting other factions participate.

Said specially dispatched the three prince legions stationed in the Tau star cluster, which consisted of 20 battleships, [-] cruisers of all levels, [-] giant soldiers, and countless Titans and auxiliary troops.

Among them, the strongest trump card is the ten battle moons!
With the battle moon as the core, this huge army was divided into ten battle groups, lying in ambush in the void around the target galaxy, waiting silently.

Inside the galaxy, the Blackstone Array and the garrison were standing by. In order to avoid the suspicion of the beast, Said did not dare to deploy too strong a force inside.

In most galaxies in the Milky Way, no matter how strong the defenders are, it is impossible to resist five battle planets at the same time. If the defenders are too strong to block the attack, the orcs will be alerted and the ambush will fail.

And in order to be realistic, besides the puppets, there are also a large number of mortal soldiers recruited from all over the empire on the planet. They will be used as bait to resist the crazy attack of the orcs.

All the variables of subspace, orcs, and friendly forces are all eliminated by Said, just like a string of dominoes, as long as the first one is pushed, it will go all the way to the end.

However, if nothing else, accidents will happen at this moment.

The nine Primarchs found Said at the same time, and said: "Your Highness, our think tank predicted the same thing, the battle planets of the orcs will gather in a certain galaxy!"

"We can lay out an ambush in advance and wipe them all out! Our legion is ready to go, and we are waiting for your order to wipe out this group of aliens!"

Said was taken aback and asked, "What's going on? You both received the prophecy at the same time?"

Guilliman nodded and said: "Yes, both the Primarch and the psykers of the Mechanicus have seen the same prophecy. If it is true, we will bring an end to the Beast War!"

However, Said did not want them to participate. The more factions involved, the more variables there will be, so he asked:

"If the prophecy is false, we are actually hiding the enemy's real purpose in order to mobilize the main force. Aren't we being fooled!"

Guilliman was in a hurry, and quickly explained:

"That's it, His Royal Highness, from the existing legions, each will draw a part to form the Judgment Court Legion, and go to the target galaxy to encircle and suppress."

"Currently there are many legions, and deploying some of them will not affect the combat power at all. As long as they are properly arranged, they can completely wipe out the battle planet!"

Said heaved a long sigh and said calmly: "Three princely armies have been deployed there, and your people have gone... To be honest, it doesn't have much effect."

"If you can send people to supervise for the battle planet technology, I will share it with you after the war, just like the battle moon!"

The Primarchs were angry, and Rog Dorn said: "What did His Royal Highness say, don't you believe us?"

Sanguinius said calmly: "Perhaps what happened to the Blood Angels before made His Royal Highness worry. Once an accident occurs, the great opportunity will be ruined."

Guilliman explained: "His Royal Highness, rest assured that our troops will absolutely obey the command and guarantee that they are all loyal and reliable people."

Lion King Ryan also agreed: "Yes, the war has been fought for so long, and we have all paid huge sacrifices for it. This last battle is about the glory of soldiers. I hope His Royal Highness will make it happen."

The primarchs all pressed against the palace, Said nodded helplessly and said: "Okay, as you said, we will recruit elite legions to form the Tribunal Legion to participate in the encirclement and suppression operations!"

After the call ended, Said looked gloomy, and immediately went to Malcador and asked, "Maxiang, where did the news of the battle planets gather first come from!"

Malcador thought for a while and replied: "As the Primarch said, the prophecy appeared at the Legion's think tank at the same time, and even those psykers who were not specialized in prophecy also saw the prophecy."

Saeed gritted his teeth and said, "This is clearly caused by subspace! I don't want the ambush to succeed!"

At this time, Malcador smiled mysteriously: "But...His Royal Highness, according to the news from the Martian Assassin Court, the earliest prophecy happened inside the Mechanicum!"

Said was taken aback, as if thinking of something, and asked, "What did you say? The Mechanicus was the first to receive the prophecy?"

Malcador nodded: "That's right, the Mechanicus psykers received the prophecy earlier than the Legion's think tank, but they didn't choose to make a statement, it's strange, isn't it?"

Said nodded with a gloomy expression: "After learning that the five battle planets are haunted, the oil guy is still madly rushing to ambush, so how can he not move at all!"

The various changes of the Mechanicus made Said feel strongly vigilant. In addition to the space fighters in the Inquisition Legion, there are also many Mechanicus cataracts.

If the Mechanicus has a conspiracy, it is likely to cause the ambush to fail.

At this moment, Said wished he could take back his order and forbid the Inquisition Legion from participating in the battle to ensure that the battlefield was under his absolute control.

However, rationality made him extinguish this idea, let alone whether the Primarch would agree, the honor-seeking space warriors would be the first to be restless.

If someone with a heart is provoking at this moment, maybe chaos will take advantage of it.

So far, the only thing Said can do is to strictly control the Mechanicus members of the Judgment Chamber Legion to ensure that they are all loyalists of the Mechanicus.

At this time, Malcador said another message:
"His Royal Highness, the Assassin court has discovered a phenomenon worth noting. In the empire at this time, there are still a large number of believers in the imperial truth."

After the emperor ascended to heaven, the official ideological trend of the empire became the state religion of the empire, from extreme materialism to extreme idealism. This sudden change made many secular elites not used to it.

In the past, although worship was encouraged and the glorious image of the emperor was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, as long as he was justified by faith, there were no various red tapes to take an oath.

After the establishment of the state religion, the entire empire became justified by deeds, and when they met and greeted people, they first said "Praise the Emperor" before they started to say anything else.

The beginning of each letter is "The Immortal Emperor's holy light lasts forever! His Royal Highness protects my human race!" Then I started to write other things.

When eating, they will fold their fingers on their chests and read the Holy Word and hymns silently.

These are just the tip of the iceberg. In daily life, people are still bound by various rituals and rules to strengthen the cognition of loyalty and contribute their beliefs to the golden sun of the subspace.

This kind of social environment that confines thoughts will inevitably dissatisfy some secular elites who have been loyal to the Emperor since the Great Crusade. They miss the free atmosphere of the Emperor's era.

These people generally have profound qualifications and high positions and weights. They quickly clashed with the state religion and accumulated quite a lot of conflicts.

But they are all mortals, Said didn't take it seriously, and said to Malcador: "Is this not easy to handle? Let the Assassin Court and the Ministry of Justice take people?"

Malcador said: "Thoughts can't be killed. Your Royal Highness, this part of the secular elite who believes in the truth of the empire merged with the mortal power faction and became the biggest opposition force in the empire."

Said said disdainfully: "Under the microscopic scan, everything will be invisible. I will give you the list later, and you can let the legal department take the person. If you can't move, let the assassin go to court!"

As long as there is no chaos to take advantage of it, Said will have nothing to fear. The microscopic satellites above Terra will scan day and night to ensure that once chaos appears, it will be discovered.

In recent years, it is not without chaos and aliens infiltrating Terra. As soon as they set foot on the land of Terra, the Inquisition came to check the water meter, and then executed them on the spot.

Terra is the cleanest place in the entire galaxy for humans.

Malcador got the list and launched a new round of purges. Said was putting this matter behind him and deploying the Inquisition Legion, but he got a piece of news by accident.

Through the admonition system, Said learned that the secular faction actually infiltrated into the Space Marine Chapter, and the Imperial Truth Warrior Association appeared!
These people formed a group against the brainwashing of the Chapter Priests, and still firmly believe in the truth of the Empire, believing that the current Empire has deviated from the Emperor's ideals.

But the emperor has become a god, and only the belief in the emperor can save mankind. In the face of such iron facts, the market for the truth of the empire is not big.

Previously, Said had noticed some clues, but he didn't take it seriously because the impact was not big. However, recently, this trend of thought has spread rapidly, and a large number of fighters have formed associations.

Comparing with Malcador's information, Said felt horrified. Most of the think tanks that predicted the assembly of battle planets belonged to the association war group.

Said carefully analyzed the composition of the association war group and found that most of them were veterans of the Great Crusade and loyalists in the rebel legion.

What motives they have for continuing to believe in the truth of the Empire, Saeed does not know, but at this moment, these warbands have joined the Inquisition Legions in large numbers.

This cast a shadow on his heart. At that time, he thought that there was no Primarch behind these rebel loyalists, they were easy to command, and their loyalty had passed the test of rebellion, so they were absorbed into the Tribunal Legion in large numbers.

However, after being reminded by Malcado, it was discovered that this dangerous trend of thought was spreading, and Said regretted it too late.

Without evidence of rebellion, without a suitable reason, Said could not kick them out of the Judgment Legion, and could only arrange them in a relatively harmless position.

Saeed told the emperor about his worries, and the emperor comforted him: "Don't worry so much, I can feel that they are still loyal, but in a different way, and the number is not dominant."

Saeed's worries have not subsided, he sighed:

"The Mechanicus, the Secularist School of the Empire, the Four Gods, and Mao Mao... Overt and dark arrows are intertwined into a net, and conspiracy and tricks are used as the abacus. It seems that a big net is woven behind it, and I can hardly breathe!"

The emperor calmly said: "There is an ancient proverb in Terra, 'the heights are too cold', if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. Said, do you have the consciousness to bear this burden?"

Said smiled and said: "Of course, I will protect your empire and your human beings. Only in this way can I feel that you are still by my side!"

The emperor was silent for a while, then calmly said: "It's not mine, it's ours!"

At this moment, the Judgment Chamber Legion was already in place, Said deployed the Judgment Fleet away from the core battlefield, and specially arranged a Prince Fleet nearby to monitor it to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Their army is also treated in the same way. Unreliable elements stay away from the core battlefield, and even if they betray the water, they will be discovered immediately, leaving enough time for Said to react.

Among them, the black stone obelisk that determines success or failure is guarded by giant soldiers. There are no human beings, all puppets.

As long as you keep the Blackstone Obelisk, you can seal the victory, and you are not afraid of any rebellion.

After some operations, Said finished patching and confirmed that there were no loopholes and everything was safe, so he was relieved and waited for the predicted day.

During this period, the undercurrents surged in Terra, and Malcador obtained the list, leading the Assassin Chamber, the Ministry of Justice, and the Tribunal to launch a large-scale purge. A large number of secular factions were arrested and executed, and white terror shrouded Terra.

Under the microscopic scan, these people have nowhere to hide. They either hibernate in deeper darkness, or take their families with them to escape from the world of the throne shrouded in the light of the God Emperor.

So far, the ideological struggle in Terra no longer exists, and the state religion has won a complete victory.

Finally, the prophesied day came, and a large number of orc garbage mountains leaped out of the subspace, flocked to the target galaxy, and launched an overwhelming attack.

The garrison fleet immediately fought back, with light spear macro cannons, genetic radiation bombs, and space mine traps all outputting, giving the orc fleet a head-on blow.

Afterwards, the scientific research ship launched a micro-scan and easily disintegrated a large amount of rubbish mountains. At this moment, the orc battle moon broke out, the gravitational field restricted the scientific research ship's movement, and then exploded.

However, a large number of moon-class cruisers flooded out of the galaxy, taking advantage of the gravitational field and weakening the void shield, launched a suicide attack on the battle moon, paralyzed the gravitational generator, and caused the battle moon to collapse.

Defenders show weakness only for battle planets, garbage mountains and battle moons are not included.

In order to break the defense of the galaxy, the Mandeville point twisted again, and five battle planets jumped out.
