"hope?"
The Great Sage suddenly pointed to the desolate land outside Endeavor City.
"Ten thousand years ago, the rebels and heretics launched a shameful surprise attack on us. They used evil sorcery to destroy the defenses of Rebis and completely overwhelmed the defensive forces deployed on the ground in terms of numbers and strength. Even Endeavor City fell a few weeks after the war began. The Great Sage at that time was forced to go underground, but it was only a matter of time before he was caught by the rebels. At that time, Reza was only one step away from falling, and the people gathered outside the city The army could not cross the death zone formed by the enemy's two Titan legions."
Soshyan turned to look at the red desert, and suddenly saw many towering monuments, all of which were carved into the form of charging knights.
"...At a moment when everyone was in despair, two hundred knights from the Taranis family and the Zavora family launched a desperate charge. Regardless of the only death waiting for them in front, they charged against the enemy's fierce artillery fire. , every footprint they left on the plain was filled with blood, and their numbers decreased at a rate measured in minutes. This charge was called the Battle of Fighting by later generations. The nearly two hundred knights who rushed towards the city eventually numbered forty-nine. They arrived at the city, and then found a breakthrough in the dilapidated city wall, paving the way for the subsequent attack of the Titan Legion, and giving the Great Sage time to mobilize the Star Flash family, and finally drove the enemy out of Endeavor City and rescued them. He defeated the great sage and dragged Reza back from the edge of falling into the abyss."
After hearing this, Soshyan's eyes were full of respect when he looked at the charging knight sculptures again.
"A great battle, no victory is easy."
"Since then, Reza's ruling sages have reached a consensus that no conclusion can be drawn from any war simply by relying on logical processors, and no war has no chance of winning. There is always something other than data. It would have a significant impact on the war.”
At this time, Soshiyang was a little confused. What did the great sage want to express?
"A great soul can create miracles in war. I also met Huron many years ago. If I only look at it from my personal point of view, he also had a great soul at that time, but in the end this soul was distorted by power. Now... now I realize that you also have such a great soul."
After that, the great sage's subsequent words can be classified as cross-examination.
"Then Commander-in-Chief Soshyan, if the power you have is not enough to complete your responsibilities, what choice will you make?"
After thinking for a moment, Soshiyang said in a deep voice:
"I will try my best to unite more friends and rely on the strength of others to complete my responsibilities."
"So this is the difference between you and him. Huron is not without talents and talents, but he is very proud in his heart and only focuses on the small world around him. He does not realize that many problems can actually be solved from other aspects. It was because I saw this that I finally rejected his cooperation agreement, and luckily Reza escaped the Badab War."
"To be honest, I don't quite understand your thoughts, Great Sage. Your attitude toward the expedition seems to be in a state of flux."
"I don't have the ability to predict the future. Before I met you, I was really wavering. In fact, we also have a lot of internal debates about how to support the expeditionary force. After all, Reza's power is powerful, but it must be controlled by the right person. In our hands, we must answer to the Omnissiah and the Empire."
"Are you worried that I will become the next Huron?"
"Maybe this makes you uncomfortable, but to be honest, I'm not the first or the only person to think that way."
The airship had slowly lowered towards the ground at this time, and the huge landing area had been cleared.
Soshiyang sighed softly, knowing that the other party was telling the truth.
"What now?"
"Now, I think you are better than Huron."
"That doesn't sound like... much of a compliment."
"No, don't get me wrong, I'm not describing your ambition, but you are smarter than him. The empire is so big that it can't accommodate a few ambitious chapter leaders, or even those Astartes who simply pursue honor. To a certain extent it is also an ambition, the point is to know what can be done and what cannot be done.”
Soshyan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"It seems I didn't make a bad impression on you."
"In fact, I feel very good. If you are a Chapter Master who insists on black and white, or a fanatical warrior, then I have no hope for the prospects of this expedition."
"Ah, to be honest, I can't tell whether you are praising me or mocking me."
After the airship landed, Soshyan and Ultramok walked down the ramp, followed by a company of Honor Guards.
The huge landing area is flat, and a straight road leads to the north gate of Endeavor City. On both sides of the road, stand the terrifying and majestic God's machine-Titan!
From the smallest dog-shaped Titan to the gigantic Warlord class, these giant metal structures in blue and white with black Iron Fist logos were neatly lined up on both sides of the road like soldiers waiting for review, while their crews lined up at the feet of the divine machine. And saluted Soshyan who was walking slowly.
Soshyan has also seen Titans at close range several times, but he is still shocked by their magnificence. Such a terrifying war machine, even if the enemy has thousands of space warriors, they will not be able to compete without equivalent power.
Halfway through, Ultramok suddenly stopped and said something that surprised Soshyan.
"Commander Soshyan, the Militant Legion currently has a total of 158 Titans. I can hand over half of the force to you."
"What!"
At that moment, Soshyan was so excited that he almost jumped up, but of course he would not do that, but he could not hide the surprise on his face.
"But... there's one more problem."
Sure enough, he knew that things were not that simple. Since the other party was willing to make great efforts, he must ask for something.
"Just tell me."
"Since 41, green-skin tribes have been harassing our galaxy, and there have been cases where larger tribes have directly attacked Reza. Therefore, we have maintained a high degree of combat readiness over the years, and the defense pressure has also increased. It’s very big, and if we’re going to move that many Titans, we have to have security.”
Soshyan knew that the other party was telling the truth. There had always been serious green-skin threats in the star system around Reza and even in the entire star region. He had also been invaded by large green-skin tribes several times, and even the expeditionary force had been attacked on the way here. They were once harassed by green-skinned pirates, but they basically fled after seeing such a large fleet.
However, there were also a few greenskins who recklessly carried out exploratory attacks on the expedition fleet's transport formations. Although they were all wiped out, the rampantness of these aliens was evident. For many years, the empire and even the red pirates had tried their best to control the scale of these green pests, but as of now Like other regions, this galactic disease cannot be eradicated.
