Chapter 418 Black and Red, the Plan in the Shadows (IV) Never Forget (Part 2)

Turning his eyes to Janmorro, the latter was much more complicated in Calvin's eyes.

During this week, he read a lot of internal information from the Inquisition and the Council of State.

The key figures of both sides, their resumes, and styles of doing things gradually became clear in Calvin's eyes.

There was a clear gap in the Empire's collection of information on Fenris, and the relatively detailed information basically ended before the Great Rebellion. And even these relatively detailed information, most of the records were mainly about the whereabouts of soldiers from Terra.

As for the detailed information of the entire legion and even the expeditionary fleet, most of them were burned in the famous "Siege of Terra".

And the records of this kind of information became even rarer after 32 thousand years, especially with the promulgation of the "Holy Code" as the dividing line. The information belonging to Fenris after that was only the changes and registration of important figures such as the Chapter Master.

In a word, the Space Wolves after this were almost an independent warlord. They neither asked for any materials from the Empire nor assumed the tax obligations of gene seeds to Terra. (ps: The gene seed of the Space Wolves has its own particularity. The key transformation process - Wolf Wine, that is, the toxicity of the Wolf Spiral, can only be exempted by the native residents of Fenris. Terra once had a corresponding solution, but this technology was permanently lost in the Great Heresy.)

There are many reasons for this "free-range" state, but there are only two main reasons:

First, their style of doing things is too violent and they never consider the overall perspective of the war.

After the last Primarch left, looking at the entire Empire, no one can make the wolves of Fenris bow their heads and restrain their wildness and minions to serve the Empire.

Second, Fenris's conscription system is too fragile. Without the help of the Primarch, their conscription range can only be limited to Fenris.

And just look at the harsh natural environment of Fenris, you can know that any fierce battle with more than 30% casualties may permanently weaken the Space Wolves' already unusable strength.

"Can this thing be called an army? This can only be the wolf cubs who bared their teeth and bluffed at home after the alpha wolf ran away from home, right?

They have bad tempers, bared their teeth at every turn, and are not resistant to being beaten. They dare to die for you to see if you hit them.

Hiss! These things are really..."

When Calvin saw this, he had an illusion that his molars were aching.

He almost crossed thousands of years to see the expressions on the faces of the Terra lords who were bitten by these wolf cubs but could not be punished. They were more uncomfortable than constipation.

"Okay... The Empire is not short of this little force, just keep it, even if it's for Rus?"

So in the following reading, the Primarch was no longer surprised to see the conciliatory strategy adopted by Terra towards this group of "endangered protected animals".

After comprehensively considering the problems faced by the Space Wolves, Terra no longer forcibly pursued the right to deploy and command them.

On the contrary, Terra gave them the right to fight independently and could join or withdraw from any aspect of the Empire battlefield at will.

Similar covert help is also reflected in the Mechanicus of Mars. Although the Wolves showed no respect for Terra, Mars still never refused the Iron Priests' request to come for further study.

In order to maintain their dignity, these Iron Priests were given great authority during training. In addition to learning the knowledge of casting a full set of equipment for regular Astartes, they also have the ability to cast a variety of heavy vehicles including Land Raiders and Shadow Sword Super Heavy Tanks.

Among the Astartes Chapters in the entire Empire, only a few Chapters have this privilege.

But they are different from the Space Wolves. These Chapters have obvious technical background in the Legion era. Mars's technical authorization (STC template authorization) for them is more of a legal recognition than a help.

This is the end of the information about the Space Wolves. Most of the remaining documents are the achievements of these Space Wolves on various battlefields in the Empire.

From these documents, the Primarch saw the frenzy they displayed in battle, and from the accusations of the Imperial soldiers who had fought side by side with them, the heresy they displayed in various details was equally shocking.

But his understanding of the Space Wolves did not become clear. On the contrary, in comparison with these materials about the Space Wolves' chapter mechanism and culture, these descendants of Rus became more vague in his eyes.

Galvin put down the materials in his hand and sat behind the desk to think steadily.

Yes, they are Space Wolves.

But are wolves really only violent and savage?

If the descendants of Rus are really only wild, then how did they survive from the Great Crusade to today?

If the descendants of Rus only know how to vent the tyranny in their hearts, then how can they explain the promotion path from Blood Claw to Grey Hunter to Long Fang in their legion?

If they were not as rude and uncommunicative as their appearance showed, then the Space Wolves, as the "legion police" in a sense in the hands of the Emperor during the Great Crusade, would have shown this "characteristic" as their unique survival wisdom.

Yes, in Calvin's eyes, in the context of the Legion era, the core position of the Space Wolves is "legion police".

If we overlap the characteristics of the "White Helmets" that Calvin saw in his previous life of service with the Space Wolves in front of him, then the various behaviors of these Space Wolves will have a reasonable explanation.

They fear power, they obey power, they are loyal to power, and they execute power.

They are the most loyal hounds of the Emperor. As long as the Emperor gives an order, they dare to bite any enemy with their fangs;

They are the most ruthless executioners of the Emperor. As long as the Emperor's will is clear, even comrades who fought side by side in the past will fall under their blades.

This is the culture of wolves, and it is also the natural class attribute of wolves. They are loyal to their leaders and they obey the proven power.

But there is a prerequisite, that is, before you can gain their loyalty, you must first prove your own strength.

And once you prove yourself, they will also put aside the traditional justice and evil and faithfully carry out any of your will.

The survival wisdom of the wild wolves was demonstrated in it. They never cared about the opinions of their brothers. They were only responsible for executing the will of the alpha wolf.

But in order not to be besieged by their brothers, they were also used to using barbarism to cover up their rationality and using tyranny to hide their thinking.

They were like their own genetic fathers, always howling like the beasts of Fenris to speak, and they were also like a certain Cyclops' evaluation of Russ, hiding their shrewdness in barbarism.

"Very good, very good..." After getting a satisfactory conclusion, Calvin finally closed his eyes and took a short rest.

As long as these wild wolves didn't really understand human words, everything would be fine.

What do they want?

Power? Or a strong fist? He could give it to them.

As long as the situation allowed, the Primarch didn't mind using his fists to teach these wild wolves what "strong fist is truth" meant in a physical way.

The thinking on how to deal with the Space Wolves came to a temporary end here with the Primarch, but the Inquisition, which was theoretically his own territory, made Calvin frown.

The information of the Inquisition was replayed in the Primarch's mind. The personnel arrangements of the Janmoro Sector in the past hundred years were retrieved and screened by the Primarch at a high speed.

Although he did not find any abnormalities of the Inquisition in the Janmoro Sector for a while, when he re-examined the confrontation between the two sides, a set of familiar administrative operations made him smell the smell of conspiracy.

Calvin did not find any problems with the resume of the current high-level Inquisitor of the Sector, Lisetta Truvisi.

But it was precisely this flawless resume that made Calvin, who had worked at the grassroots level for a lifetime, feel abnormal!

It was too clean, as clean as a civilian who had never participated in grassroots business and did not know what complex situations and temporary flexibility were.

And apart from the strange attitude of the Grand Inquisitor towards Lisetta before he set off, every time he tried to inquire about this Inquisitor along the way, all the personnel of the Inquisition also showed resistance, either openly or secretly.

There was another point that also aroused Calvin's vigilance, that is, the time when Lisetta arrived at Janmoro.

50 years, in 50 years, this woman who landed here alone from the distant hazy star field has integrated all the branches of the Inquisition here.

In 50 years, while she was in control of the entire power of the Inquisition of Janmoro, she was also granted the power to recruit Astartes at the level of a complete chapter!

Calvin had reason to suspect that this Inquisitor was not alone. She was definitely supported by a certain group and came with some special mission.

So what was her goal? Space Wolves...

Based on Calvin's understanding of the war in the Janmoro sector, the war situation there did not require the participation of a third-party chapter. Even if the power of the Grey Knights and Exorcists was insufficient, the Inquisition only needed to recruit other chapters nearby to participate in the war.

Then why wait until the Space Wolves joined?

Moreover, the Inquisition had a complete set of confidential procedures for dealing with the residues of Chaos pollution, so why was it so anxious to deal with these fleets in the Janmoro sector before the Space Wolves left?

Couldn't it be transferred to other star regions in the name of rotation?

As a high-ranking Inquisitor who has grown up from the grassroots step by step, and the head of a star zone, Lisetta's methods must be so clumsy that even these Fenris people can see it clearly?

In addition, the Grey Knights arrived in Janmorro at the right time, and the Exorcist Regiment appeared at the right time.

This is too much like a well-prepared game, and as the Inquisition, which has the most comprehensive information about the Empire, it is indeed capable of digging such a pit for the Space Wolves.

So what is the reason?

Calvin knows the reason without thinking about it. It is nothing more than a group of people who think that the Space Wolves have shown too many heretical behaviors in recent centuries. There are so many that the high-ranking members of the Inquisition can no longer suppress the opinions of the grassroots members, and they must give an explanation to the entire Inquisition!

What about the werewolves of the Thirteenth Company? And those biochemical giant wolves that directly bite the corpses of friendly forces on the battlefield? And the group of iron priests they sent to Mars almost have the belief of "worship of evil gods" written on them?

In a word, the Space Wolves at this time neither have the endorsement of the Primarch behind them, nor are they as unshakable as the Black Templars and the First Legion.

They are not even as good as the two legions in the latter, who have at least a cover-up of respect for the Imperial decree!

Yes! Even if they cover it up a little?

The Empire is not unaware of the suspicious number of the Black Templars. The local inquisitors who report to Terra every year have already counted their troops that appear on multiple battlefields at the same time!

The same goes for the Dark Angels!

The Empire is indeed not aware of the little secrets they keep, but doesn't the Empire know anything from their weird appearance?

It may be possible to cover it up for one or two years, but after thousands of years of big data, everyone knows that they are chasing some people.

But has the Empire asked? Does the Empire care?

No, the Empire will not ask, and the Empire does not care.

As long as you are still fighting for the Empire and proving your loyalty with the blood of the enemy.

Even as long as you have at least a cover-up on the surface out of respect for the Holy Book, the Empire will not get too entangled in these details.

No, the Space Wolves will not respect the Empire. They will only leave a mess on the battlefield and then turn around and leave with ease. Looking for the next battlefield to continue the self-touching war.

The Inquisition responsible for cleaning up the mess can only persuade the grassroots judges and political commissars in vain again and again, and even kill these people to keep the secret...

They have had enough! They don't want to clean up the mess for the Space Wolves anymore!

They decided to punish this arrogant wolf even if it costs a heavy price!

Because it is swaggering there, if it is not dealt with clearly, how to deal with the Black Dragon Chapter of the Sons of Vulcan?

If its blood is not used to show the bottom line of the mortals of the Empire, then how to deal with those chapters on the verge of rebellion near the Eye of Terror?

This is definitely not just the will of a pure faction!

This should be the collective will of the entire Inquisition, hoping to use the blood of the Space Wolves to rectify the increasingly arrogant behavior of the entire Empire and all the Astartes Chapters in these years!

Purity? What a good knife...

Calvin squinted his eyes and crossed his fingers to hide his expression. In the quiet office, the servo skull chirped softly, and the burly figure of the Primarch, illuminated by the holy candle on its head, disappeared into the darkness under the light...

The idea was good, but the method... was too violent.

This slash might indeed shock all the Astartes Chapters.

But is the chain reaction caused by this slash really what they want?

Have they not considered that once this conflict becomes difficult to handle, the already fragile mutual trust between the mortals of the Empire and the Astartes will suffer another incalculable loss?

When did the strategic vision of the Inquisition become so short-sighted?

Or is it really what they think and what they really think that drives this consciousness to be unified within the Inquisition?

Calvin smelled the smell of conspiracy, and he was very familiar with this smell, which was the smell of his old opponent...

Update, yesterday's...
