Hammer 40k: Far East Storm

Chapter 147 Dedication

When everyone rode the Thunderhawk away from the earth and returned to the Silver Wing, the warriors could finally relax and breathe a sigh of relief. For the Knights Templar, the mission was successfully completed and the battle finally came to an end. The leader of the orcs was killed by the descending combat raid. According to the captain's prediction, the orcs will fall into chaos in the future. This is undoubtedly wonderful good news for the army on the ground. When the legion is assembled and enters the front line, the only thing waiting for the orcs is complete destruction. Although there are endless battles waiting for these warriors in the front, at least now they can take off their armor and relax and have a good sleep.

But for Li, things are far from over. On the contrary, all this is just the beginning. The casualties after the war need to be counted, the dead need pensions, the wounded need comfort, and the seriously injured need to consider their future life, either transfer to civilian positions or transfer to relevant logistics departments. The merits of the battle also need to be calculated and counted. Although all these things are trivial, they are very important and cannot be sloppy. If the war group is strong enough and the relevant management personnel are relatively complete, then there will naturally be talents to help Li share these things, but now Li, the leader, needs to do it himself. After all, this is the first real war that the war group has experienced.

And Li is not only the leader of the war group, he is also the governor of the entire Reach Galaxy. On the planet below the Silver Wing, the war with the greenskins has just begun and is far from over. The army is on the march, the battle line is gradually being completed, and a super-large encirclement covering four states is gradually forming.

As expected, the orcs inevitably fell into internal fighting. The bosses were naturally dissatisfied with each other. They fought for the chieftain's throne left by Fang and the supreme leadership of the orcs that suddenly became vacant. Who would be willing to be humble in front of others? Moreover, such a big fight is completely different from the fight between human shrimps. Most of the opponents are orcs who are fair enough, so it is naturally very enjoyable to fight.

Because the lives of these greenskins are very fulfilling at present, the pace of external expansion has almost stagnated. The orcs naturally know nothing about the huge encirclement outside them.

The whole grand strategy has been close to completion. From a strategic point of view, Li is almost invincible. But this is not a game after all, but a real war. In a war, anything can happen, so Li can't relax at all now.

So now Li works almost 23 hours out of 24 hours a day. There are always meetings to attend, materials to review, and documents to sign. The complicated official duties are almost endless. After returning to the Silver Wing for a whole week, Li spun like a top without a moment's rest.

A week later, many complicated follow-up matters came to an end. Li then turned his attention back to the soldiers. After the battle, he should also summarize the experience and lessons of this battle.

After signing the last document on the copy, Li could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and when he raised his head, he saw Jacob sitting in front of him.

"Jacob, are you still waiting? Or for that matter?"

"Yes, Captain, as the head of the think tank, I must advise you." Jacob bowed and said, "I think we should deal with this matter as soon as possible. The soldiers have given everything. At the last moment, we should give them peace! This matter should not be delayed."

Li sighed, threw down the exquisite quill pen, rubbed his temples, and then said, "Regarding the matter of the dead in this battle, my meaning is very clear. They sacrificed for the regiment, for Reach, and for the Emperor. I don't want things to be done. It's too hasty, so I hope to postpone this matter. I will build a tomb for them that is above the world. I want them to get the honor they deserve. "

"Sir, they are warriors of the regiment, your brothers, and they already have honor. No matter whether the funeral is grand or the tomb is luxurious, it can't affect their honor in the slightest. "Jacob sighed and said, "Sir, I know you need them, but you shouldn't do this. I don't agree with it!"

Li stood up suddenly and slapped the table with one hand, leaving a palm print on the iron table. His eyes stared fiercely at Jacob, while the think tank manager looked back at his group calmly. For a moment, the two looked at each other.

Li felt that he had never been so angry. Fatigue, troubles, and all the negative emotions in his heart erupted in his heart at this moment. The anger was like substance, almost spraying out of his eyes. At a certain moment, he really wished he had his XC1022 sniper rifle in his hand, so that he would definitely raise the gun and make a hole in Jacob's head!

Li's anger was not because Jacob was talking nonsense, but because the smart think tank director was right. Jacob's words were like a sharp bayonet, piercing into the softest part of Li's heart, and even made him feel angry. Li had such an illusion. Under Jacob's sight, Li, as the leader of the group, was almost completely naked, and all the secrets in his heart were hidden. That's why Li's anger was so intense. It was the anger after being exposed.

There is no doubt that the warriors in the Chapter are all carefully selected elites. After entering the Knights, the training they received was all the hard work of Li. Li passed the training methods of the Raven Chapter several times. Improvement, while trying to reduce the risk to the trainees' lives, and try our best to tap their full potential. Use almost torturous training to destroy them, attack them, and then reshape them under the God-Emperor and the faith in the Knights, making these people's spirits and bodies as hard as steel.

This is not a simple process, and it cannot be easily accomplished by the so-called high-level officials. Li spent all the time he could spare to stay with these soldiers. They trained together, ate together, and lived together. Together, we are teachers and students, but also like brothers. Li gave his all, and those outstanding young people also gave their all to repay Li. Among all things, the construction of the war group always comes first. Li just watched the battle group grow step by step. This was not an easy process.

Every warrior of the Knights Templar is Li's student. They are all Li's hard work. Every name that is crossed out and every body that falls makes Li feel heartbroken, but this is unavoidable. Yes, there are always sacrifices in war. In the break between battles, letting the dead rest in peace and allowing the living to be comforted has become the most important issue at the moment.

But now Li and Jacob have a dispute over this matter. Should the dead rest in peace, or should the living be comforted? Li is emotionally inclined to the former, but intellectually, he knows that he can't just do this. Li is not only the mentor of those warriors, he is also the leader of the battle group and the supreme governor of the galaxy!

In Li's vision, he would build a huge and magnificent monastery on the top of Mount Lanyue, the highest peak of 13,000 meters above sea level on Reach, where all the Templar Knights would die in battle in the future. The knight's grave, not only does he want these warriors to sleep in a position above everyone in the world, he also wants to hold a grand and solemn funeral for these warriors. This funeral will be broadcast live around the world. He wants everyone to Everyone knows the glory of the soldiers, let everyone understand why the soldier died and feel honored for it.

The glory of the Star Wars cannot only be spread in legends and ancient documents. Lee also needs these legends and heroic stories to return to reality. He wants everyone on Reach to feel this glory and from the bottom of their hearts. The Deep Supports the Star Wars Chapter.

The benefits of doing so are countless. It will not only allow the Star Wars to completely lay a foundation on Reach, but also reduce obstacles for Li's future local administrative direction. For the war group, this is not only necessary, but also very important!

From all aspects, this is a good thing. The only thing that makes people feel uneasy is that the bodies of the soldiers need to be stored in the coffins for a longer period of time. The soldiers who have died do not need this grand funeral. What they really need is It's those who are still alive. But whether it is a grand funeral or a cemetery located on the top of the world, it takes time to build. Before that, the soldiers cannot rest in their graves. Even for the funeral, they need to wait.

Deep down in Li's heart, he felt uneasy about this. Didn't he know that he owed these soldiers so much? If the Chapter could be stronger, if the training could be adjusted to be more effective, if there could be better armor, many things could be avoided. But reality has no ifs, and reality does not allow him to retreat. "They are the knights of the battle group!" Li said fiercely to Jacob: "When they entered the battle group, they had an oath, and they would give everything to them. They are all dedicated to the God-Emperor and the Chapter, and they will dedicate everything to the Chapter.”

"Alive or dead?" Jacob's voice was slightly sarcastic.

Li was silent for a while, and then said decisively: "Whether you are alive or dead!"

Jacob then put away all disrespectful expressions, stood up, took two steps back, saluted Li respectfully, and said, "Sir, it's great to hear you say that."
