Warhammer 40,000: Mortal Gods

…

"So, my father is determined to use psychic energy to open a channel for us to directly allow the fleet to approach the iron ring? Guilliman and I are worrying about this matter."

"That's great Ryan, that's great!"

Qin Mo returned to the flagship bridge and told Llane and Guilliman everything the Emperor said.

On the way here, Qin Mo proposed to all the clones, including Horus, the idea of ​​staying in the iron ring and waiting for the opportunity, and Horus agreed.

Now those clone Primarchs are staying in the tribe of the Skinless Ones. If the "real test" mentioned by the Emperor comes in the future, perhaps those Skinless Ones can become warriors fighting alongside them.

"Father seems to be more willing to lend a helping hand than usual now. I thought he came to the fleet just to watch how we fight."

"Don't say that, Guilliman. At least he was willing to help and saved us a lot of trouble."

"..."

While Guilliman and Lion were feeling lucky, Qin Mo sat at the tactical table, lowering his head and remaining silent.

His mind was not on the iron ring built by the traitors, but on what he had just discussed with the Emperor.

The emperor's attitude just now was quite decisive, but after saying those words, he said that there was nothing to worry about. He just wanted Qin Mo to understand that he was willing to pay the price for mankind, and hoped that Qin Mo could help him tell Guilliman and Lion The ontology conveys this idea, so that the two Primarch Commanders do not habitually fail to take him into consideration when making decisions.

Qin Mo also understood, but he still couldn't help but think about it.

Until Guilliman's question drew Qin Mo back to the expedition: "We'd better destroy the iron ring of the traitors through the fleet. The fleets of the Ultramarines and Dark Angels came out in full force. I also mobilized four people in the empire. A sector-scale fleet, including a solar system fleet..."

When Lion became impatient with Guilliman's beating around the bush and slapped Guilliman on the back of the head, Guilliman said bluntly: "How much fleet power can the Tyrone Navy deploy?"

If he were alone in private at this time, Guilliman would have asked directly, but now he was on the bridge.

The sector has already undertaken the heaviest logistical tasks. If they still have to invest the most force in the war, it will be difficult for them to be happy.

The Warmaster only needs to consider the war, but Guilliman, as the Imperial Regent, needs to consider more, including how Qin Mo should explain it to the Tyrones.

"The Tailong Navy can dispatch 44,000 warships." Qin Mo said.

"Are you sure?" Ryan was very surprised. "I thought that the number of warships you invested in the main force of the expeditionary force and other branch fleets was all."

"Not all." Qin Mo shook his head.

As the war progresses, not only the main fleet has incorporated Tyron Navy warships, but the fleets of Sanguinius and Chagatai also have a large number of Tyron Navy warships.

Less than thirty thousand battleships were indeed almost all there before the war began, if one did not count the number of patrol fleets in the sector.

But time flows faster inside the Eye of Terror than outside, and the sector fleet is also constantly developing.

The naval school enrollment is expanded and more orbital docks are constructed.

Even the several galaxies in the core of the star region, that is, near the Tyron capital star system, are only engaged in the shipbuilding industry. One galaxy is responsible for the mining and supply of complex raw materials, one galaxy is responsible for manufacturing raw materials into components, and the remaining few galaxies Responsible for assembly.

The huge population of the original sector and the worlds that later joined the sector also provided a basis for the selection of naval crews.

Not long ago, Qin Mo also asked the Navy Department of the Star Region to provide an accurate number of warships that can participate in the war, which is about 44,000, if the patrol fleet is not dispatched to the Eye of Terror to participate in the war.

"That's great." Guilliman looked at Ryan and said excitedly, "Including the Imperial fleet, it is estimated that there will be more than 50,000 ships."

"Cardia Fleet, Calisis Fleet, Belis Corona Fleet, Sun Fleet..." Ryan was familiar with the details, "These Imperial Navy will be led by Admiral Quarren to participate in the war."

Due to the Horus Heresy and other factors, large or small, the number of Imperial Navy warships has never been very large, and the Empire's overly large territory has made it difficult for fleets to be scattered everywhere.

Although the Expedition to the Eye of Terror was the largest war in ten thousand years, protracted wars were still raging across the Empire and the galaxy, and the Empire was in a state where it was too late to take care of itself.

Qin Mo knew and understood these reasons and difficulties, but he still felt that the number of warships invested by the Imperial Navy in this war was too few: "Including the navy led by Quan Lun, there were only about 50,000 ships, right? Have the high ministers been obedient to you again?"

"That's not true." Ryan shook his head. "All the Imperial Navy warships assembled this time are carefully selected. First of all, they must have combat experience. Secondly, they must have never been boarded by Chaos forces. Thirdly, they must have Long experience operating and fighting with the new hyperdrive."

"Okay." Qin Mo could only express understanding.

Then Lion and Guilliman talked about some army matters.

The most important of these is the large-scale deployment of armies to join the battle in the Eye of Terror.

Although the empire can invest less in the navy, it can invest more in the army. Considering that the Eye of Terror is the kind of ghost planet that is like a fireworks display from orbital bombardment, these army investments are extremely necessary.

Compared with the first wave of Astra Militarum mortal regiments that were drawn to participate in the Golden Expedition, the army that was drawn later was not organic and looked a bit scattered, but the number was definitely sufficient, and under the fear of coming and going. Along the way, joint exercises and training were conducted with other mortal corps.

Compared to the mortal corps, Qin Mo was most surprised by the transfer of the Space Marines.

Nearly fifty Chapters of Space Marines were drafted to take part in the expedition.

In addition there were over twenty thousand Primaris Astartes.

The gene-seed of these Astartes Primaris Space Marines came from various Loyalist Primarchs, and the temporary chapter formed by these Astartes even fielded more new Dreadnoughts.

"Call is here," Guilliman said. "He brings twenty thousand Astartes, a large number of Black Stones, and a fleet of the Adeptus Mechanicus."

Lion added: "The Primaris Astartes he brought were all stock."

"They were all made by Kaul?" Qin Mo smiled and shook his head, "Kaul can't solve the problem by creating more Primaris Astartes."

"Hahahaha, of course I can."

A burst of heavy footsteps reached Qin Mo's ears.

A huge and muscular figure wearing a red robe slowly walked into the bridge.

"Long time no see, Lord Tyrone."
