Chapter 230: Gathering, the Battle Begins
"Fight, we can only fight."
After a little thought, Calvin came to the most direct conclusion.
All the signs indicate that new enemies will appear, and Orpheus has just taken a breath.
After all, the use of the Grand Fleet is not the Grey Knights' own power. This kind of extra bargaining chip is very cautious to use, and for the sake of tacit understanding with other forces, it can only be used once and not again.
Then just use it up at once!
Calvin made up his mind and decided not to wait for the order of the star zone to be rebuilt.
But he hoped to use the existing power at once and completely eliminate the orcs in the Hassan star zone before the new enemy arrived.
"Are you determined?"
Aidan looked at his beloved disciple, who was also the future leader of the Legion. He confirmed his determination to him again.
Now that Calvin has grown up, it is a critical moment to establish his authority.
In order not to affect the spread of his influence, the Grand Master Council no longer actively issues orders, but only maintains the daily work of the war group and the Inquisition according to the original rhythm.
"I'm determined!"
Facing the gaze of the division commander who brought him into the war group, Calvin made clear his will.
One punch is better than a hundred.
This sentence was already a saying of experience within the army in his previous life. In this strategic level of judgment, he was extremely lucky to get the bonus of the heritage of his nation again.
"Then do it! We are still at home, don't worry!"
The veteran looked at the young man with relief. He had come all the way from a new recruit of the war group and finally had his own strategic decision-making and determination.
Since the young eagle dared to face the wind and rain, the veterans naturally dared to let go and let it do what it wanted.
Calvin turned and left the governor's mansion. Accompanied by the honor guard, he walked towards the helipad on the top floor of the hive city while giving his order to his adjutant Allen Janus beside him:
"Order!"
The low voice came out of his mouth, and Allen beside him instantly got into the state.
Calvin looked at the data board in Allen's hand with satisfaction, and then said:
"1. Notify the four war groups to complete the temporary preparations and assemble on the spot to advance to the southern war zone - Hassan Sector!
2. The Tindalos Legion will immediately approach the nearest warship (Grey Knights) and wait for orders after completing the boarding!
3. Notify the Inquisition and the Military Affairs Department that I want all the mobile forces of the current Star Army in Orpheus, and no concealment or reservation is allowed!
4. Notify the representatives of the lower-level forge worlds in the star zone and ask the technical representatives of the Riza Forge World to come to see me as soon as possible!"
After issuing multiple orders, Calvin walked towards the Thunder Eagle on standby. As the fighter formation escorted by the gunboat flew away, Calvin also returned to his own ship.
The authority of the High Lord and the special status of the Inquisition were infinitely magnified on him, and the identity of the Grey Knights as Astartes also made him recognized by other war groups in the star zone.
With several telegrams spreading to the entire star zone with Amara as the center.
The power of the entire star zone was under his decree and began to mobilize in the direction of total war.
Yes, this is the current situation of Orpheus.
Even after losing two neighboring allies, Lyak and Hassan;
Even though the star zone itself has been fighting against Chaos and Orcs for more than ten years, the centrifugal Orpheus has not yet entered the stage of total war.
In this star zone, there are still galaxies that have no sense of urgency threatened by war and are still living in their own small circle of drunkenness and dreams, and this is not an isolated phenomenon!
If Calvin had not come, without his special identity and the huge military force behind him to support;
According to the original fate of this place, one of the three giants would probably take over the final power here.
And can he unite the entire star zone?
Impossible.
Because their rise to power was achieved on the basis of collusion with local forces and exchange of interests.
They cannot betray the interest groups that support them, and it is even more impossible for them to set an example and promote their political propositions to the entire planet.
They can't even govern their own forces, how can they govern other factions?
Fortunately, Calvin came, fortunately his identity is so transcendent;
Fortunately, his own Grey Knights had nothing to do with the local area, and fortunately, the armed forces under his command were enough to intimidate the local heroes;
Only then could he lead the entire star zone with one order, and transform it into a system that was completely dedicated to war.
A large number of nobles had been dealt with in the previous purge, and their wealth and private armies had been concentrated;
The state of the large families' intricate roots in the star zone was changed, and the hidden wealth of these large families hidden from the sight of the star zone authorities was also investigated and confiscated.
Tens of thousands of private armed forces were confiscated and concentrated, and hundreds of star army corps reappeared on the list of the Imperial Military and Political Department;
And this was just the beginning, a large number of weapons and equipment were found from families with rampant smuggling business;
More hidden taxes were collected one after another.
When the feedback from the most remote planetary world in the star zone reached Amara, Aidan was almost surprised to find that the first batch of these cleared materials alone was enough to arm hundreds of regiment-level units of the star army.
And the subsequent supplies are still on the way. Judging from the data reported by these supplies, the star zone’s tight finances may even be improved!
At least 500, at most 2000, this is the expansion limit of the Star Army that Aidan reported to Calvin afterwards, and such a large-scale military expansion did not even use up the fiscal budget for this year...
Admiral Juan has been back to the Southern War Zone adjacent to the Hassan Sector for more than a month.
Since getting Calvin's endorsement, he has completely given up his ambition and intention to take over the star zone.
He refocused on the preparations for the Navy's Grand Fleet, but was respected and loved by the fleet's officers and soldiers;
Now that he has a stronger control over the Grand Fleet, and is determined to win the battle with the Orcs, he has become even more fanatical in preparing for the decisive battle after learning of Calvin's mobilization order and his notice of war preparedness.
Saint Elmore World, a cardinal world named after the state saint Elmore, was also chosen as the core world of the Southern War Zone's defense line after the war broke out because of its geographical location.
This special duty-free world, which was once exclusive to the Holy See, is now under construction.
With Calvin fully integrating the power of the star zone, Juan, who was holding his own troops, no longer needed to store a large amount of supplies.
The materials accumulated in the southern theater over decades were all taken out, and with the help of the navy's exclusive engineering ships, they were built into huge barracks and permanent defense systems.
The naval officers and soldiers in the front had doubts at the beginning of receiving the order, worried that the squandering of materials would put the subsequent large fleet in poverty and the threat of hostile forces.
But when the first batch of barracks and warehouses were built, the star army and the equipment and materials from the star zone were in place on time as agreed.
Then the large material transport ships like raindrops almost paralyzed the entire St. Elmore star port.
A huge amount of countless materials are being transported to the front line by the vehicles of these charter captains;
And the new berths that are newly built and completed every day are also swallowing more materials with the use of more ships.
The support from the star zone is so unremitting, which certainly makes the soldiers and people on the border feel excited.
But when this huge force continued to arrive at this high standard, the local population finally understood the meaning of it. "
A real war is about to begin.
