Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 315: Tau Empire: All-out war with the Saviors, destroy them!

When the ships of the Tau Empire delegation took off and left in a hurry.

Inside the Savior’s temporary residence.

Ron received the latest documents from the Military Affairs Department.

Together with the Weapons Research Institute, they analyzed the relevant information and spoils sent back by Voladi's Third Fleet and discovered that the Tau Empire's bipedal humanoid war machines were extremely powerful.

Moreover, there is a high probability that it can be applied to humans.

"Tau Empire's individual combat uniform?"

Ron took a quick glance and knew what the Munitions Department was talking about.

He had been somewhat envious of the Tau Empire's combat suit technology, but he was unsure whether that technology could be applied to humans.

After all, the differences in genes and physiological systems between different races are even greater than those between humans and bananas. It is extremely difficult to appropriate them and it takes a long time.

In this case, it would be better to develop a system from scratch by yourself.

In fact, humans also have individual armor that mortals can use, and that is force feedback power armor.

But that thing is very expensive and cannot be put into production in large quantities.

Moreover, there is no neural connection system, so to unleash its power, it depends on the individual strength of the user.

It is definitely elite high-end equipment.

In this way, for large numbers of soldiers numbering tens of millions.

The effect is relatively small.

In fact, Ron gritted his teeth and invested heavily to equip some elite soldiers with force feedback power armor.

It’s not that I can’t afford it.

But doing so is a sheer loss of blood.

If such a mortal power armor unit is deployed, it will not be able to withstand a high-intensity war if the individual strength is not sufficient.

Still a large number of people died.

I guess after just a few battles, the territory will go bankrupt.

It would be better for everyone to wear light armor and have a melt-type weapon in hand. It would be a huge profit if one person died.

This is also how the Krieg Death Korps fight.

They have almost no heavy armor equipment, but with their fearless spirit and melta weapons, they can even kill high-level units.

Of course, this is just a helpless move.

In Ron's opinion.

If a force like the Krieg Death Corps could be equipped with good neural-connected individual armor and related equipment.

Then it shouldn't take off?
Therefore, the relevant mortal individual armor project still needs to be studied.

The territory's current mortal individual armor project is based on power armor technology.

The main research direction is how to reduce the cost and make it have neural connection functions that can be used by mortals.

pity.

This project is progressing slowly.

Ron continued to look through the document about the Tau Empire's individual combat uniforms and was quite surprised.

The report in the document shows.

The average physical and nerve strength of the Tau people is far lower than that of humans, which is why they use auxiliary players as forwards in large numbers.

However, various types of individual combat uniforms exist.

This gave them greater strength and firepower, allowing them to easily defeat human warriors.

With enough numbers, T'au Battlesuit teams can even fight against Space Marines.

More importantly, the Tau Empire was able to produce so many battle suits with only the territory of a few star systems.

That's enough to prove that the manufacturing cost of combat uniforms won't be too high.

At least it is within the tolerance of the Savior's territory.

hiss~
Ron took a breath:
"The Tau people have such weak physiques, but they are so fierce after putting on combat uniforms. If our elite Stormtroopers are equipped with them, won't they be able to kill people indiscriminately?"

At the end of the document, the Ministry of Military Affairs gave its conclusion.

If the Weapons Research Institute can develop individual combat armor for humans based on the combat suit technology of the Tau Empire.

It will greatly enhance the armed strength of the Storm Army.

Such a suitable and precious technology, we must not miss it!
"It seems that the Military Affairs Department is already sharpening its knives..."

As soon as Ron crossed out the document about combat uniforms, he saw a series of combat plans against the Tau Empire and the arrangements for the mobilization of the Redemption Fleet.

This discovery.

This made everyone in the Military Affairs Department very excited, inspired, and even a little impulsive.

Originally, the Military Affairs Department did not have much desire for war because the Tau Empire sent a fleet to provoke first.

At most we can fight back those aliens and teach them a lesson.

They felt that there was not much value in spending a huge price to capture the few planets of the Tau Empire.

Those places are full of aliens and alien buildings, and they are centralized forces. Before reaching the core area, the planets along the way will have to be bloodbathed, and maybe the entire planet will have to be burned to glass.

The reconstruction afterwards is also a big problem.

It's thankless.

Moreover, the excessive killing does not fit in with the glorious image of the savior.

just now.

Those guys wanted to put a knife to the neck of the Tau Empire and force them to hand over all their precious technologies.

Any alien who dares to stop me will be killed!

Ron couldn't help but sigh:
"It would be such a waste if such excellent technology fell into the hands of the Tau Empire. We should borrow it and use it..."

He had no objection to the Munitions' battle plan against the Tau Empire, and the idea of ​​seizing combat suits and related technology.

In this incident, the Tau Empire took the lead in sending out its fleet to provoke.

Then we will launch a just counterattack and advance to the enemy's homeland, demanding that the enemy apologize, cede territory, pay compensation, and hand over all technology.

There’s nothing wrong with that, right?

According to the plan of the Ministry of Military Affairs.

Once the Savior's delegation to the Tau Empire returns and brings back more information about the enemy, we will officially launch a further counterattack plan.

Moreover, he seriously suspected that the Tau Empire also planned to attack us.

As for how much specific force will be invested, it depends on the combat results of Voladi's Redemption Third Fleet.

After all, the territory is fighting on multiple fronts and there are too many places to defend.

The military force is not that abundant.

Ron briefly flipped through the battle plan document.

It contains some targeted battleship layouts, naval gun configurations for fighting the Tau Empire, propulsion plans, and a lot more.

He took a few glances and turned it off.

It would be better to leave this kind of brain-intensive work to the Military Affairs Department.

He, the savior, only needs to decide whether to fight.

How to fight and what troops to send.

That is something the Military Affairs Department should consider.

not to mention.

I am not the Regent King Lao Ji, so I have to do everything by myself, even the mobilization of the fleet's artillery has to be done by myself!
That's so miserable and tiring.

Ron thought about it and made another plan for the future.

When the war situation on Lao Ji's front line eases a little, we will send people over to see if we can get him a territory system and provide him with some training.

Reduce his workload.

To prevent the old people from dying young due to overwork.

Ron doesn't dare to send anyone over now.

The war was at its most tense moment, and Lao Ji's command system was running at full capacity. Any slight change could lead to a major collapse.

After Ron made a note of this, he collected the dataslate and headed out.

He also had to hold a meeting for the leaders of various planets in the Chalaton region to raise their ideological awareness.

As for the affairs of the Tau Empire, let the Military Affairs Department handle it.

Anyway, they are much more professional than me.

Unless the Military Affairs Department's war plan against the Tau Empire fails, this savior will come out to stabilize people's hearts and call on his subjects to fight to the death.

Then, he personally led the army into battle.

……

Titanium Star.

In the banquet hall.

The communication between the Savior Mission and the reception staff of the Tau Empire is still ongoing.

The material richness of the Savior's territory shocked Shadow Stream, Lesven and others, and also made them show off.

It became a joke.

After a brief moment of embarrassment, Yingliu changed the topic and directed the discussion to the social system.

Describe to Aleman and others the superiority and brilliant prospects of the Greater Good.

"As you can see, under the guidance of the Greater Good, the various clans of the Tau Empire performed their duties and created a splendid civilization..."

Shadow Stream talked nonstop.

She would compare it with the human system from time to time, and the projection behind her would show the civilization and achievements of the Tau Empire.

however.

Aleman and the others listened to this beautiful, heavenly description, but they looked at each other in bewilderment, feeling more and more that something was wrong.

According to Shadow Stream's description.

The Ether Clan divided the Tau people into five major castes, each with its corresponding type of work and life path.

The Tu clan is responsible for science and technology.

The Fire Clan is physically strong as a warrior.

Shui is a businessman, civil servant, and diplomat.

Most of the Feng family are excellent pilots.

Ether is responsible for management and guidance of other clan members.

Each clan has its own domain, and all of them strive to fulfill their duties and serve the Greater Good.

Build a better society.

At first glance, these seem quite harmonious and beautiful.

But in fact, this is the system of bloodline.

The entire Tau Empire society attaches great importance to bloodline and origin, and the position of each clan is determined the moment he is born.

Officials should be good officials, and street sweepers should work hard to sweep the streets all their lives.

That is also contributing to the greater good.

Even more terrifying.

There is almost no concept of personal property in the Tau Empire. Everything belongs to the collective. It is a thorough collective rationing system.

Moreover, free love is prohibited and marriages are arranged by arrangement.

Objects are assigned strictly according to genetic information and related conditions.

Whoever gets it gets it.

Inter-caste marriage or hybridization with other species.

It is one of the most serious crimes, the unforgivable kind.

That means.

Ether is always a Brahmin. They can enjoy the best material distribution, be assigned the most suitable wife within the same caste, and their children will also be managers.

The same is true for some businessmen, scientists, and pilots.

The resources, bloodline, knowledge and power that they can allocate will be passed down.

But those are only a minority.

The vast majority of the Titans do the most ordinary jobs.

The resources they can be allocated are very few, and even the people they are assigned to are of the same class and are similar in every way.

This is the consequence.

When their children are born, they will be assigned jobs similar to their own.

Those who sweep the streets will continue to sweep the streets for the rest of their lives.

Even more terrifying.

Within the social confines of the Tau Empire, or under the influence of faith and re-education.

Everyone accepted it.

I am happy to contribute to the great and greater good.

Without personal property, the chances of getting any closer are slim.

There is a high probability that you can only keep doing the assigned work.

Even if you want to change to another job, it is not possible. As a Tushi laborer, you want to do some small business or drive a vehicle?
That's a felony.

Once such behavior is detected, the offender will be sent for re-education.

Even disappear forever!

As for other races that joined the Tau Empire, they were even more miserable, always inferior to the Tau people, and had no chance to participate in management.

After Aleman figured out the hidden problem, she saw Shadow Talk, who was smiling and telling her all about it.

I just felt a chill on my back.

Before her mission to the Tau Empire, she read some of the remaining Tau Empire documents that could be found in the territory.

One of the incomplete files of the Mechanicus proposed a scenario.

That is, Ether used some special pheromones to control the minds of the Tau people.

Now, as the contact deepens.

She felt more and more that this was most likely true.

This is a world ruled by the Ether Clan, full of oppression, deception and confusion.

The Tau Empire is not as good as they advertise. The citizens here have almost no chance to choose their own path in life and have always lived in a fantasy created by the Ether!

Of course, this is also relative.

If it were the planet Ers more than fifty years ago, which had not been redeemed by the savior, it would definitely think that everything in the Tau Empire was very beautiful.

The mere fact of allocating work, accommodation and food is enough to make people crazy about it.

however.

Almost all of Aleman's children were born after the Savior recaptured the planet Ers.

I never went hungry.

They were fortunate to live in an era of material abundance and rapid social development.

Actually.

After Ron recaptured the planet Ers, he initially implemented a citizen grade and collective rationing system, distributing related supplies according to citizen grade.

It's a bit similar to the Tau Empire.

But he also set up a system of professional representatives.

No matter what position or job you hold, as long as you do a good job and get recognition in the same position, you can be promoted to a high-level citizen.

It is equivalent to providing a way to be promoted from the bottom, and in disguised form releasing many high-level positions.

All of this is controlled by the spiritual network, which almost eliminates the possibility of any human intervention.

In later development.

With the help of Zhongsi College and its affiliated institutions, Ron implemented universal education.

Any gifted child can get a good education and develop his or her talents.

This also indirectly increases social class mobility.

more importantly.

After material conditions are further improved and the social environment permits.

Ron introduced a partial market economy, further promoting the vitality of social and economic development.

Of course, that is limited to some common industries.

Those industries or fields that affect the development of the territory are still firmly controlled by the Ministry of the Interior and other institutions.

Thus.

Although the Savior's territory is a totalitarian regime, the social environment is actually quite free.

The liquidity is also strong.

Moreover, the Savior's territory has been in a period of rapid development over the years, with new places constantly needing to be developed and managed, releasing a large number of jobs.

The living standards of the citizens in the territory have skyrocketed.

If there is no accident.

This trend of development is expected to continue for many centuries, until there are no more areas in the galaxy to recover and rebuild.

It will fall into stagnation.

That way.

I am afraid that the development of the Savior’s territory will stagnate and fall into an internal scramble for existing resources.

Various contradictions will continue to arise.

Unless the territory is willing to continue expanding outward and begin moving towards areas outside the galaxy.

But that is a long time in the future, and it remains to be seen whether human civilization can survive the ensuing disaster.

It's still unknown.

Although Aleman had learned about the past of the Savior's territory in history class, he did not have much feeling about it.

Just consider it a part of history.

She saw the beautiful appearance of the Savior's territory today and dedicated herself to it.

Live up to the expectations of the Savior.

Therefore, when she saw the true appearance of the Tau Empire, she only felt terrified.

She didn't want to live in such a world.

Even though it is already one of the more beautiful things in the galaxy.

In the cruel purgatory galaxy, living in a beautiful fantasy may not be a bad thing.

Shadow Stream noticed something strange about Aleman and the others.

"Don't you think this kind of society is wonderful?"

She frowned and asked:
"According to our research, under the guidance of the Greater Good, this is already the most civilized and beautiful society in the galaxy.

Compared to the system of your human empire.

Even more so..."

Aleman did not refute, nor did he disparage the Greater Good.

She knew very well that it was the fanatical belief of these people, and exposing it would only put the delegation in danger.

but.

As the head of the Savior Mission.

It is necessary for me to let these Titan people know what a beautiful world the great savior has created.

With the help of projection.

Aleman described the social conditions, institutions, lives of citizens, etc. in the Savior's territory.

The banquet fell into silence.

"Impossible... This is fake!"

Looking at the world in the projection, Yingliu kept telling himself in his heart that those were just human scams, and the human empire could not have created such a system and world!

However, she couldn't convince herself.

It was a more civilized world, apparently.

Lesven felt even more resentment and regret in his heart.

He hated why the savior didn't come to his world, so that their world needed to serve the aliens in order to have a chance to survive!

However, more Tau people were indifferent.

They believed that the Savior Lands were too free and filled with spiritual filth to be compared with the great Greater Good.

Finally, the banquet ended in a depressing atmosphere.

Shadow Stream arranged for the Savior Mission to rest.

According to the original arrangement, they would also arrange for each other to visit some landscapes and relics during the rest of the trip.

Let the Savior Mission fully experience the history of the Tau Empire.

Learn how the Aether ended the wars among the Tau, thereby guiding and creating this glorious civilization.

However, she no longer had the superiority she had before, and she didn't have much energy to show it all.

The Shadows feel that they have betrayed the Greater Good and can no longer acknowledge it as the greatest, most perfect, and most civilized being.

more importantly.

She was vaguely aware that the Saviour Territory was much more powerful than she had imagined, and that the Tau Empire was waging war against it.

It is an extremely wrong thing to do!
This terrible conjecture was verified after Xiyu's terrified return.

They agreed.

Beneath the savior's gentle veil lies a terrifying truth that is hideous enough to destroy the Tau Empire.

"For the greater good, we must stop this war..."

Xiyu held Yingliu's hand and spoke almost beggingly.

"I'll be with you!"

Yingliu nodded, sharing the same thought, she found herself hardly mentioning the Greater Good anymore.

……

The Council of Elements.

The throne was filled with representatives of various ethnic groups.

The Supreme Aether convened a new war meeting and issued an order for all-out war.

This made Shadow and Stream even more desperate.

They had clearly submitted the relevant information about the Savior's territory, so why did the Supreme Ether still choose war?
Shadow couldn't restrain himself.

She took the opportunity to stand up and asked, "Lord Supreme Being, have you read the information we submitted?"

"Brave boy..."

The Supreme Ether looked deep in his eyes and said slowly:
"Yes, I have read the information you sent. The Savior is indeed very powerful. This is one of the reasons why I launched an all-out war."

After the Ether Conference read the information uploaded by Shadow and others, they were well aware of the excellence of the Savior civilization, and they all agreed that the Savior's ideas would greatly influence the great Greater Good itself.

This is an extremely terrifying thing for the Ether Clan.

The idea of ​​a savior is more complete, but it is blocked at the doorstep.

If it is not eliminated, there will be almost no possibility for the development of the Greater Good.

Such a huge threat and civilization can only be eliminated by war, and at all costs!
Xiyu stood up somewhat collapsed:
"But can we really win? Don't you see the terrible war machines of the Saviors? They are a destructive force!"

She retained a glimmer of hope:
"I have seen the Savior. Perhaps we have a chance of peace..."

The diplomat's remarks caused an uproar in the conference hall.

No Tau had ever dared to speak so directly to the High Aether, or even to challenge his decision.

"Kid, you are wrong"

The Supreme Ether remains peaceful.

He shook his head:

"There is absolutely no possibility of peace between the Tau Empire and the Saviors. The Saviors have attacked our fleet. We must fight back."

The Supreme Ether raised his hand slightly.

The scene of the Savior’s Territory recorded and uploaded by Xiyu appeared in the conference room.

He said slowly:
“What you see is the Savior’s territory. They may be powerful, but we have defeated too many enemies under the guidance of the Greater Good.

This time is no exception..."

The High Ether looked towards the clan representatives.

In a calm tone, he spoke of a war of total extermination:

"The Saviors have rejected our goodwill and launched an attack. We need to destroy them completely without leaving any traces. Everything is for the great Greater Good..."

The clan representatives looked at the screen of the Savior's territory.

It was a barbaric and backward world with many ugly war machines.

They responded to the command of the Ether Supreme:

"For the sake of the Greater Good, destroy the Savior!"

Shadow Stream just felt crazy being in it.

She couldn't understand why they would fight a war they had no chance of winning, and why the Supreme Aether would want to completely exterminate a civilized world.

Little did they know that they were once like this.

Yingliu suddenly reacted and thought of a horrible thing.

That picture is wrong.

At some point, the footage they recorded and uploaded to their storage devices was replaced with completely different clips.

Just when she wanted to warn him.

Xiyu's crazy shouting has appeared:

"That's fake. The world of the Savior I saw was not what was shown in the picture. The number of those war machines was much greater than what was shown in the picture, and they were even more terrifying!"

However, the two diplomats' struggles were of no avail.

The Supreme Ether maintained a calm and peaceful attitude and floated away.

After the meeting.

Shadow Stream and Streamtalk were also captured by the Ether Guards as antisocial lunatics and thrown into cells awaiting re-education.

Excuses were also found to delay the Savior Mission to prevent them from leaving early and leaking the news.

Just as the Tau Empire was mobilizing its fleets everywhere, preparing for all-out war.

Some airspace.

Flames were burning in the void, and a large number of wreckage of Tau Empire ships were scattered everywhere, obviously having suffered an extremely terrible attack.

not far away.

It was a huge, terrifying beast-like shadow of a ship...
