Chapter 500: The Dispute Between Father and Son over the Save the Elephants Project
Chapter 500: Save the Elephant Plan - The Struggle between Father and Son
Due to the special background of the founding of the warband, the Grey Knights are not picky about the origins of their members.
It is even more frank to say that the eight Grand Masters of the first generation of Grey Knights are all "ready-made goods" from various legions.
Calvin is interested in all outstanding warriors, which is directly related to his ability to "transform".
The huge space of the deck cabin was once again filled with artificial atmosphere, and many technicians and machine slaves reappeared.
Everyone walked through the corridor at the end of the deck and came to the rail train station set up by the warship for large-scale material transportation.
"Sura..." Calvin silently recited the name, and then memorized the information of this person in his mind.
Among the synchronously input data, the external intelligence was finally processed, and what was waiting to be processed in his mind was the internal documents of the Grey Knights Legion.
"Tang?" The Primarch blinked his eyes to confirm that he was not mistaken. This single pronunciation is not common in Western civilization, and it is even rarer to appear as a surname or name.
"Jogoris..." Calvin was somewhat surprised and a little regretful. After all, he was the only outsider in this world, and similar names could only be similar.
"Is there a problem?" Calvin asked in a low voice, and there was still a look of regret in the eyes of the Primarch, but he didn't say anything in the end.
The young Sutherland (Calvin's surname) was a little confused, but he didn't know why the promotion of an arbitrator could affect the Primarch's emotions.
"No." Calvin shook his head slightly, knowing that it was not something he was familiar with.
But the emotions in his heart were still surging, so under Calvin's unexpected eyes, he rarely exercised the privilege of the "Gene Primarch":
"Well... agree to his promotion, and then transfer him back to the direct company."
"Your will, but..." Calvin's voice sounded in Calvin's ears, and his second half of the sentence attracted the attention of the Primarch.
"But what?" Calvin frowned and looked at Calvin.
This guy has been known for his extreme seriousness since the recruit period.
When he stood out from the grassroots officers and became the helmsman of the big company, "Sir Sutherland", a special word that is roughly equivalent to strong and stubborn, became almost as loud as his nickname "Little Calvin".
Although Calvin admired his serious and responsible work attitude, he still couldn't get along with such a person happily in real life.
"But why? This does not conform to our established promotion conventions." Little Calvin looked directly at the original body and asked his question directly.
"Reason? No reason." Calvin's chest was a little stuffy. Although this was indeed his willfulness, it was really beyond his expectation that he was really pushed back by Little Calvin in person.
Well, in fact, this is not surprising. After all, the temper of this captain with his name is also well-known for his stubbornness in the entire legion.
"Then I'm sorry, as a representative of the headquarters of the Grey Knights, I have reservations and refuse to sign this promotion order."
Little Calvin's tone was still calm, but the meaning of his words was enough to make Calvin angry.
He almost couldn't control himself, but looking at the captain who didn't retreat, he finally chose to restrain himself helplessly.
"Well... I understand what you mean." Calvin tried to compromise, but still wanted to meet the young Grey Knight.
He said to Calvin helplessly: "I promise that this transfer is just a special case and will never affect his subsequent rotation process."
However, Calvin didn't compromise and kept pursuing: "But what about the convention, sir? Your willfulness will inevitably create a fait accompli in the legion, and no matter what the reason for this fact is, it will eventually lead to a 'convention' basis for later generations when facing the legion system!"
Good guy! Really don't give any face? Calvin laughed out loud in anger, and the way he addressed Calvin became formal:
"So what's your opinion? Sir Sather... Lan?"
Looking at the public history of the Empire, as a Primarch, he is probably the only one who has been educated by his own captain.
"My opinion is that you should pay attention to your own influence and handle the personnel work of the legion carefully."
Little Calvin said to the Primarch calmly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter at this time.
Although the two spoke calmly, no one was going to retreat in the air full of gunpowder.
The surrounding Grey Knights were silent. When it came to the affairs of the internal management of the legion, only Little Calvin was qualified to talk and was beside the Primarch.
Several guards also kept silent, because this was also not within their scope of authority.
On the empty track, the train arrived with a roar. In the open gate of the carriage, Constantine walked out and greeted everyone. "Good day, everyone."
Calvin finally waited for the steps he had been looking forward to for a long time, so he couldn't wait to turn his eyes to the person who came.
"Is there something?" Calvin asked.
"Uh, nothing..." Constantine obviously didn't understand the current situation.
"You must have something!" Calvin said seriously.
"Then... even if there is?" Constantine said uncertainly. Calvin finally breathed a sigh of relief and saved himself from this embarrassing situation.
"Ahem, I have something else to do. Let's leave it at that for now and talk about it later." Calvin explained to everyone in a serious tone, then grabbed Constantine and boarded the train again without any explanation.
The imperial guards behind him followed silently, while little Calvin stood silently with the guards.
The rail train that had just stopped started again, leaving everyone behind;
In the quiet carriage, Constantine looked at Calvin's hand without saying a word, as if he was lost in some kind of thinking.
Calvin organized his words and tried to explain the situation just now. Nicholas and Jin looked up at the ceiling and were also immersed in observing the structure of the rail train.
"Ahem..." Calvin also noticed the smell in the air. While letting go of Constantine's arm, he also found a seat and sat down casually.
The few people present seemed to have been reminded and recovered from their static state.
"What's going on?" Constantine didn't want to ask, but he had to ask. As a colleague in the War Council, he was one of the few people who could participate in the function between the two.
It was no secret on the Silver Dawn that the Primarch and his captain had disagreements on the job, but this was indeed the most serious of all the conflicts between the two in the past year.
"My question," Calvin answered. A few minutes were enough for him to calm down and rethink the situation at the time. Calvin finally understood Calvin's position.
His promotion order to Tang made the latter deviate from the original promotion path. After the first promotion at the grassroots level, he joined the direct troops around the Primarch two rounds in advance.
It should be noted that in the increasingly mature promotion and rotation system of the Grey Knights, this is a training process that senior centurions are eligible to enter before being promoted to company commanders.
Calvin's point of view should also come from here. He is not jealous of Tang's situation. On the contrary, Calvin is now the captain of the legion's company, and a senior officer second only to Gavins, Golden and Allen, the leaders of the battle group.
As a representative of the Grey Knights headquarters in the War Council, he is more worried about whether Tang will have the opportunity to prove his comprehensive command ability in battles below the company level after such a "special" training process.
The lack of experience may not reflect specific consequences at the beginning of a soldier's career, but if Tang has the opportunity to serve as a senior officer in the legion in the future, this lack of experience may lead to extremely serious consequences.
"It's my problem." Calvin confirmed again, and then slammed his hand hard on the shelf beside him.
"But I just don't want to change!"
