Warhammer: In the Name of Ashes

Chapter 272 Long-term planning and the birth of Saint Marduk

The alien fleet relied on its strange high speed and powerful artillery fire to deal with the Astartes fleet, which had the strength and home field advantage, for dozens of minutes.

But after the world of Colkash Fortress burst into a huge firework, they finally chose to retreat helplessly.

The alien ruler named the Silent King reserved the awakening device here for his subordinates. After it was accidentally dismantled by Calvin two thousand years in advance, the final remedy attempted by his guards was also announced under the prophecy of the Emperor. fail.

The curse that originated from the Necron dynasty and lasted for thousands of years on the rulers of Orpheus came to an end.

This undead dynasty named Menak can only have a chance to be awakened from its slumber by waiting for their supreme ruler, the Silent King himself, to return to the galaxy and take action himself.

A tragedy that originally affected the four major star regions was eliminated thousands of years in advance;

The future was rewritten with the annihilation of hundreds of billions of people and the deaths of several Astartes Chapters in battle.

Orpheus finally regained its long-lost tranquility. With the intervention of Calvin, the "variable", it escaped the tragic fate of being completely abandoned by the empire in the official history.

Calvin did not have the emperor's overall perspective, and he had no idea of ​​the impact of his actions here.

He is like a loyal soldier who only asks where the enemy is, not why he is fighting.

What this soldier was most concerned about at this time was the life or death of the old man named Marduk.

After struggling to save his life, Calvin became obsessed with the finishing work of Orpheus.

It was several months later that Marduk fully recovered and walked out of the life-support capsule.

During this period, Calvin, who returned to Amara, the capital of Orpheus, sat in the center.

Use unprecedented energy to accelerate the government affairs of Orpheus and re-transform from wartime to peacetime.

Orpheus sector (including the four major star sectors, the empire has not yet certified this, this is a special name given by the author for the convenience of description.)

The people of the Orps sector not only need safety, but bread and milk are also their basic needs after seeking precious peace.

Economy is the ultimate embodiment and extension of politics, and politics is the concentrated expression of economy.

Knowing this well, the first thing Calvin needs to do is to build a complete and stable ecological structure for the sector's politics, as well as political rules that can operate healthily and smoothly.

The appointment of personnel is the basis of everything, which is different from the materialistic world.

The absolute difference in strength caused by people's talents, and the different rates of return produced by investing the same amount of resources, are naked realities that cannot be denied or ignored by Calvin.

Can the Astra Militarum built with 10,000 Throne Coins really be equal to the Space Marines built with 10,000 Throne Coins?

If so, what would the Emperor do?

This was not a time of peace, and Calvin had no right to ask an entire race struggling to survive to consider human rights equality.

The war between subspace and alien races has never allowed the empire to have long-term peace. Every world is either at war or preparing for war.

In such an environment, shouting that everyone is equal? That's too extravagant and too hypocritical.

This is the reality that Calvin faces, and he must adapt to this situation. The appointment of personnel also relies on this kind of thinking and can be put into action.

Successor of the Ondan family of Orpheus, confirmed by Calvin;

At a precarious time when the family lost its leader shortly after taking over the sector, it received support from the top of the empire.

As a reward and inevitable price, the Ondan family's transfer of the governance of the sector has systematically strengthened the Inquisition's power here from top to bottom.

The establishment of the Grand Council allowed the power of the three major orders in Orps to form a complete permanent institution;

Penetrating into all departments of the entire sector, the Tribunal is like a cold star, integrating into the long-term operation of the entire sector in a moist and silent way.

The candidate for the governor of the Hassan sector has finally been decided, and several forces have failed in their fight for this place;

Under Calvin's dictatorship, Admiral Juan became a candidate beyond everyone's expectations.

The placement of the Astartes was also confirmed during this period:

Under Calvin's leadership, although the Orpheus sector already had the Astartes Chapter stationed there, it still extended an invitation to the Angels of Death Chapter.

As the fourth planet of the sector capital, the world of Liberace was finally selected by the war group and became their exclusive world to be stationed in the future.

This Chapter was highly praised by Calvin.

Compared to the Orpheus Archon Chapter, which also carries the blood of Guilliman, the Revenant Angels had a much higher presence in the Battle of Orpheus;

The latter seems to be too obsessed with obeying Ultramar, and forgets his basic responsibility of guarding the empire's territory.

During the long Battle of Orps, this battle group had Orps in its name. The main force under its control was in the distant extreme star field throughout the entire battle and never appeared on the battlefield of Orps.

Their unconditional response to Ultramar made them absent from the sector defense war where their home planet was located.

The Astartes Chapter, which neglects its basic responsibilities in this way, cannot be trusted by Calvin.

The Reviled Chapter is also on the list of rewards. As an Astartes Chapter that once fought alongside Calvin, Calvin wanted to place it in the Hassan sector to generously support Orpheus as the former. s return.

But this chapter has its own profound cultural heritage. Influenced by the culture of its parent group, they are not interested in the defense of a certain star zone;

Instead, the continuous pursuit of some Chaos Space Marines is the mission that this chapter attaches the most importance to.

Calvin negotiated with the leader of this chapter several times. After many in-depth conversations, Calvin confirmed their demands.

This descendant of Corax is obsessed with hunting down his old enemy. In order to facilitate their support and replenishment, the chapter alliance in the Krieg system opened its arms to them.

They will receive unconditional support from the chapter alliance and its huge industrial system, and continue to patrol the entire empire in a ship-based combat mode.

The division of personnel and governance ends here, which is considered to be a basic framework.

The demarcation of the economic circle and the layout of the industries within it also began to expand to the other three star zones with Orpheus as the center.

Under the strong leadership of Calvin, the sector government strongly promoted the rational planning and adjustment of large industries.

Local nobles and vested interest groups were defeated, and most of them showed a valuable "risk spirit" and were willing to serve the overall interests of the empire and the sector.

As for the few local forces that pretended to obey but secretly resisted, they all withdrew from the political stage of the empire for various reasons in the following decades under the pervasive and deliberate targeting of the Inquisition.

It was against this background that Marduk woke up in the medical layer of the Angel of Punishment in the third month after the Battle of Korkash.

The imperial envoys who reported from the Terra Administrative Council to the Senate for approval and then returned to Orpheus via the Ophelia VII world also brought the news that Marduk had been canonized.

The Orpheus sector launched a huge celebration ceremony for this, which lasted for decades.

Tens of millions of pilgrims who followed Saint Marduk marched in the entire sector with singing and dancing.

Their colonization and resettlement also took place silently here.

More foreign populations came from the entire Storm Star Region and even other territories of the empire.

This wave of pilgrims, which lasted for a hundred years, not only brought continuous foreign population to the entire Storm Star Region, but also laid a solid foundation for the development of Orpheus.
