Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 210 03.0209: ‘Talks within the Fleet Security Committee’

Horatio, wearing a uniform that was still straight after staying up late, took the special elevator without looking sideways.

The exquisite gilded decoration inside was simple and solemn, and the Roman numerals displayed on the ceramic steel wheel kept rolling as the floors continued to rise.

With a ding, he walked out of the elevator and looked around with a little curiosity.

As a fleet stronghold, after the top leaders issued a security order, the patrols here became unusually numerous, and the fixed sentries alone reached a literal one every ten steps.

In the wide corridor across from Horatio that was several kilometers long, there were hundreds of navy guards in red standing guard with guns.

They wore uniforms that were almost the same as those of the British Royal Marines in the Napoleonic era.

They wore a kind of top hat with two wings tilted upwards, and a carapace helmet inside the hat.

Their uniforms were red flat swallowtail uniforms, snow-white pants, and shiny black leather shoes.

From the ankles to the calves, and then to the knees, they were wrapped in black velvet long shoe covers and leggings, which looked like black boots at first glance.

The golden tassel ribbon hung on their chests, and the short golden tassel epaulettes on their shoulders made them look particularly majestic.

Seeing Horatio, who was wearing a void blue officer uniform, coming over, they saluted one by one with their guns on their shoulders.

Horatio quickly scanned the strict office area.

This is the floor where the Fleet Security Committee is located.

If the Military Intelligence Command is the "MI6" of the Imperial Navy, then this is the "Security Bureau" of the Imperial Navy.

The heads of the two departments have very high autonomous investigation and action rights, and are the only two departments that can mobilize the naval armed forces without the approval of the commander-in-chief of the Gothic Fleet.

But unlike the Naval Intelligence Command, the Fleet Security Committee is actually a temporary organization led by two leaders.

It is affiliated with the Star Zone Fleet on the one hand, and the Star Zone Fleet Security Squadron on the other.

The Naval Military Supervision Bureau of Abyss Port is one of its theoretical administrative subordinates.

Unlike the Military Intelligence Command, the Fleet Security Committee also has the power to call on another large number of armed forces.

That is, to recruit the Imperial Navy Infantry Battlion and the Imperial Navy Artillery Battery under the Naval Tribune.

The Naval Infantry Battlion and the Naval Artillery Battery are the "Port Defense Force" (Port Defence Force) approved and recruited by the Imperial Navy on the Anchorage Planet.

Although it is also referred to as PDF, their equipment and training level are comparable to the Otarama Mortal Auxiliary Army.

Its duties include defending the Naval Supervision District, the Admiralty Fortress, and serving as guards for senior officers.

They are recruited from people with "citizenship" on this planet, and trained by officers of the Imperial Guard according to the standards of the Cadian Blitzkrieg.

These elite "Imperial Navy Guards" standing guard in the corridor are also elites selected from the naval infantry.

They are directly mobilized by the Naval Security Committee.

There are high standards for training, discipline, height, and appearance.

It should be noted here that in the human imperial society in the 41st millennium, there are many disparities and insurmountable classification gaps.

At first glance, it is very similar to the late Roman Republic, but in fact it is worse and more contradictory.

Imperial citizens refer to those who have registered their imperial citizenship in the planet's Ministry of the Interior.

They are widely distributed, from the top of the tower to the middle nest.

To become a citizen, you first need to have at least one registered property on the planet, and some planets have other property requirements.

Only when these are met can you have standard imperial citizen political rights.

Below the citizens are "free people", who may be refugees fleeing from the fallen planets, or workers from other planets who come to work and earn money.

The composition is mixed, and they are basically not protected by most local laws of each planet.

These "refugees" only have the obligation to work like slaves for the planetary government and the empire, but have almost no corresponding rights.

Before obtaining citizenship, they have no access to the necessities of a decent life such as compulsory education for their children, standard social security for citizens, and political rights.

Those people in the lower nests are "worthless" abandoned people. The empire does not care about their lives or their lives.

The regular personnel of the Imperial Navy will only be recruited from those with citizenship.

These red soldiers have all received basic compulsory education, and they are beneficiaries in the imperial system with citizenship, so they are extremely loyal.

Their cultural quality, professional skills, and fighting will are even better than the Imperial Guards handed over to the Ministry of the Interior on some obscure planets.

However, subject to the constraints of the Guilliman Code, the naval infantry and the naval guards cannot leave the local planet to fight against foreign enemies in principle.

At most, they can only board ships in the form of battalions and companies to protect the safety of senior officers, but they do not participate in the war.

Just like Vice Admiral Hood's general guards.

These two departments have a significant influence because they hold military power over the armed forces.

Therefore, the person who can serve as the chief officer must be the confidant of the fleet, and must have outstanding ability and be good at thinking and analysis.

Those crazy captains were eliminated first in this link.

But as for why Vice Admiral Alexander Hood, who has such a tyrannical reputation, still sat on the position of the chief of the Military Intelligence Command.

I am afraid that in addition to the fact that he spent a lot of effort to build relationships, his outstanding ability level and his actual style of doing things are not as crazy and arrogant as the rumors outside are also one aspect.

From Horatio's understanding of him, this is indeed the case.

Today, Commodore Peru has replaced Vice Admiral Hood, and his position is taken by the former adjutant of Vice Admiral Hood, the former second-in-command of the Military Intelligence Command, Colonel Lord Elphinstone.

Horatio did not know this senior officer very well, and was trying to recall his relevant file information at this moment.

He looked very young in the photo, in his thirties, with a high hairline and wearing a white fake curly hair that was common in the 18th century.

Like Vice Admiral Hood, he always dressed neatly and was meticulous, which was very much the temperament of a British naval officer in the Age of Discovery.

This reminded Horatio of Commodore Norrington, a British Royal Navy officer in Pirates of the Caribbean.

In addition, Farida's personal maid Lina was his daughter, and now she was his adjutant in the Security Committee.

"Commissioner Camerin, no matter what, our Fleet Security Committee and your Abyss Port Military Supervision Bureau are nominally affiliated with the "Gothic Discipline Squadron" and are equal departments. The First Bureau is also under our guidance in the administrative structure.

Why did you dig our people to your place without saying a word?"

A debate came from the room through the heavy wooden door, and the voice of Captain Elphinstone came out with the sound of slapping the table, which sounded very unhappy.

"Sorry, Captain, this matter is top secret, and we can't help it."

Horatio stood in front of the door, listening to the faint conversation inside.

"No matter how you plan to solve this matter, our Imperial Navy Gothic Fleet will not sit idly by.

If we don't get a satisfactory result, we will submit an arbitration application to the Hazy Star Domain Security Department, and then you will explain your violations in the arbitration court!"

Commodore Peru said very impolitely:

"The Inquisitor has great power, but our Imperial Navy is not a pushover! Moreover, as a heroic fleet that defeated the evil traitors' 12th Black Crusade, the monument engraved with the names of our ancestors is still placed in the Terra Palace. We must get a fair explanation for this matter! "

"Admiral Venuska Katalia has visited our bureau this morning and has held administrative consultations on this matter.

The solution we have given is that after the incident is over, let Military Supervisor Farida Hood decide whether to stay in the Navy or the Military Supervisory Bureau.

If she chooses to stay in the Military Supervisory Bureau, we will send her to the Gothic Discipline Squadron, and then from the squadron to the Fleet Security Committee.

In this way, she will be back here again.

What do you think of this solution? We will let her make another choice, and it is up to her to stay or go. "

The voice of the female military supervisor sounded very sincere.

The ending is the administrative relationship between the Imperial Navy and the Military Supervisory Department. In order to facilitate readers' understanding, I asked the civil servants of the Document Court to make a table.
