In fact, before arriving, Soshiyang expected that the Alien Tribunal would not give up on the Eldar massacre of the Huo Yinland family, so it was not surprising that their old affairs were brought up again, so he replied kindly:
"Please tell me."
"According to the records of the Alien Court over the years, the Ark Eldar never do anything meaningless. They are different from the fallen relatives of Commorragh. Every action must have a very difficult to estimate but actually very clear goal. They They like to interfere with the layout of the empire through guidance, creating chaos and other methods to realize their evil ideas. Although the Huo Yinlande family sells soul stones wantonly, this will not attract the Eldar to use such a huge force. They can use more covert and less They have the strength to complete this task, and assassination is easy for them. Therefore, we have reason to suspect that this group of mysterious spirits has other purposes for massacring the Huo Yinland family. Even this behavior is just a foreshadowing. It is uncertain what they will do next. , maybe this expedition is their real goal!”
Since the aliens active in the Maelstrom are basically green-skinned pirates and a few Dark Eldar marauders, the power of the Alien Tribunal this time is not strong, and is much weaker than the Heretic and Demonic Tribunals. This reflects The tone of their speech has become much softer, and they are mainly based on suggestions rather than the commanding tone.
Soshiyang is the type who talks well if you speak well. After pretending to think for a moment, he said slowly:
"I can understand the concerns of the Alien Court. The Eldar are unpredictable enemies. They will always try to come up with some tricks... but the main enemies we face now are heretics. The Red Pirates are still poisoning the Maelstrom. The main contradiction and the secondary contradiction must be clearly distinguished, otherwise we would be like headless flies, bumping here and there, and in the final analysis, what kind of trouble can a small group of elves make? We have With such a huge army and such a powerful fleet, it is right to pay attention to threats, but if you panic because of the slightest threat, doesn't it seem like the empire is afraid of the Eldar?"
Although there had been some conflicts just now, the judges of the other two tribunals agreed with Soshyan's view.
"That's right, a mere group of spirits can't compare with the threat of the heresy in front of us. Things should be done carefully."
"The people in the Alien Court are making too much fuss. The Maelstrom has such a long history, and the largest Eldar threat is the Dark Eldar conspiracy that has plundered certain worlds. The curtain of the Ria space here is weak, and the Ark Eldar will instinctively stay away from this place."
"Can't you just investigate and deal with it yourself? There is no need for everyone to work on this kind of thing together. This is a war period and manpower is very tight."
Faced with the exclusion of the other two branches of the Tribunal, although the judges of the Alien Tribunal were very angry, their power here was really weak.
In the final analysis, strength speaks for itself within the Tribunal, because you have the power to judge me, and I also have the power to judge you. In this situation of equal power and no institutional constraints, if a conflict breaks out between the two parties, they will immediately return to the most essential nature of human beings. The solution——
Violence.
At that time, whoever had the bigger fist was justified, which was why there were perennial struggles and fights within the Tribunal.
"Okay, everyone is serving the emperor, and we have each other's responsibilities. Just understand each other."
At this time, Soshyan, as an outsider, became the peacemaker, calming down the conflict that was about to break out between the two sides, and also bypassing the matter of the Alien Tribunal.
Of course, the Tribunal is not all trouble-seeking. In fact, as the most powerful institution in the empire, they also brought a lot of key intelligence and suggestions to Soshyan.
One of them is about the last demon prince arranged by the Red Pirates in Badab.
"...After our long-term investigation and confirmation, the demon that appeared in Badab is a demon prince named Bowenger. He is a very ancient existence, commanding a huge army of vampires. The physical image Appearing as a giant leech with a warp portal on its head and wrapped in armor, he would summon a large number of demon legions during battle. At one point earlier than m40, he slaughtered the entire population of Kokanath and destroyed it. It served as its lair there. Finally, when the Inquisition executed the extermination order on the world, it disappeared from the planet, and occasionally appeared on some battlefields in the following thousand years. The Daemon Prince currently controls two Chaos warbands, and is The Badab Sector is raging, and the Gray Knights have formulated a plan of action to track it down and banish it."
Soshyan nodded after listening to the report of the Demonic Tribunal.
"No wonder the battle reports from Badab always say that from time to time, an army of demons will appear inexplicably at the logistics transfer point behind the besieging troops and in the world that has been confirmed to be safe. It turns out that this beast is at work! It has seriously affected Helb. Marshal Chet’s progress in besieging Badab must be eradicated as soon as possible!”
"We are working hard to trace its footprints. In addition, according to the intelligence returned by our informants deployed at the Bloody Skull, Huron began to move the population within its territory after the failure of Angstrom last time, trying to create a series of Fortress world, but it is worth noting that the heretic fleet is still operating near Angstrom. They are executing an evil plan, which is to secretly send a large number of agitators to various worlds and set off a frenzy of rebellion behind the expeditionary force. Currently, the Death Cult is tracking and assassinating those agitators in a targeted manner. In addition, the heretics may continue to suppress the food supply in the war zone. They are using the wealth they looted in the past to purchase large quantities of food through the black market, trying to quickly Raising food prices."
In fact, Occam provided more accurate information about Huron, but he didn't mention those "small plans" much, so the news brought by the Inquisition was still relatively important.
"Can those channels be cut off? I remember food controls were ordered."
"In fact, imperial agencies have been making similar attempts, but the Red Pirates used to plunder a large amount of precious metals, gems, jewelry and works of art that they could not use, and these things were... more popular among the upper class. Welcome, and there are many people doing illegal business in the Maelstrom.”
"Then we need to tighten controls."
In fact, Soshyan already knows where to solve it.
In the gray area, let the gray people solve it. The war on the bright side will continue to be fought, and the war on the dark side will continue to be fought, and the commander on that side is Sorge.
Some problems require a two-pronged approach to solve them.
After the meeting with the inquisitors, Soshyan took a brief rest for a day and had a separate meeting with the Patriarch of St. Dalton. He actually had a very important military meeting, but he was waiting for one person— —
And a powerful ally.
Finally, on the third day of the meeting with the Inquisitors, a powerful fleet entered the warp node of the Sagan system.
