Chapter 659 A New Expedition is Necessary

Alicia Council Hall.

The huge round table can accommodate all the Primarchs. The sofa that should have belonged to Hogg was now occupied by the Emperor. As for the real owner, Hogg was squeezed next to the useless brothers, making up the three cups of big, medium and small.

Looking at his well-fed offspring, the emperor sighed helplessly, and licked the rice grains from the corner of his mouth with his tongue, then said:

"You idiots, in the past 100 years, under my leadership, the empire has prospered. Although it only occupies half of the territory, its strength has far exceeded that of before. I think it's time to launch a new round of great expeditions. The dark side of the empire is here, and I'm not happy about it!"

Ignoring the Emperor's shameless words to flatter himself, all the Primarchs, without exception, nodded, indicating that it was indeed time. Thousands of years of separation had turned the Dark Side into a dark place, and a heavy blow must be struck.

"Those shameless people, I'm already selling fake goods, and they're actually copying my fake goods, Gou'erdan, and they're still using our White Scars' reputation to cheat people everywhere. I won't agree to that, I have to kill them all and build a Jingguan that reaches the sky!"

The Khan's words drew unanimous praise. For such a rebel, there was no need to talk about the imperial truth. The only word was one - kill.

Kill aliens, kill chaos demons, kill cultists, and kill rebellious ministers who refuse to obey the king. Kill, kill, kill.

However, the Great Crusade cannot be decided in one sentence. Through the last failure, I am afraid that the emperor has learned a truth, that is, nothing can be rushed. The dark side of the empire is there, and it must be dealt with slowly.

To this end, the Emperor and the Chosen had a heated discussion, ranging from the tactical level to the strategic position of the special world. In order to make the grand strategy clearer, Hogg also moved a holographic projector to the table.

He also pulled Jeanna, who was still frantically kneading devil meatballs in the workshop, over and used her ability to conduct simulations. As for the imperial guards who came with the Emperor, they took up the work of recorders, picked up parchment and started writing and drawing there, recording the speeches of each Primarch.

The entire meeting lasted for 13 days. From the initial rounds of speeches, to the mutual rebuttals later, it finally turned into a physical debate with fists and flesh, which made the imperial guards very excited.

Only Hogg, who had no idea about strategy, stood there staring at everyone else, dragging the little cat and the female guard Tilis to play Yu-Gi-Oh for more than ten days.

"I don't agree to divide the troops!" Horus' voice was unusually firm. He refuted the Emperor for the first time and said that if they were to be dispersed like before, would Chaos take advantage of them?

"Yes, Horus is right. In my opinion, we should do what the Iron Warriors do. Every time we conquer a planet, we build a permanent bunker on it and install a general cannon on it. No matter what alien demons there are, even if the target is Holy Terra, I am confident that I can conquer it."

As soon as Petrabo's voice came out, the emperor's face suddenly darkened. He was a man who had glanced at other timelines and knew what his unfortunate son had done.

However, before everyone could start arguing again about this issue, Guilliman, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up:
"Stop arguing, you bunch of idiots. I've finally figured it out. For the past century, none of you have been involved in the affairs of the empire. It turns out that I'm the only one who has to handle everything!
Do you know how many Star Lords there are in the Empire now? Do you know what equipment models they are equipped with now? You bunch of rubbish, do you know how much wealth I have saved for the Empire in the past 100 years? "

Guilliman's roar filled the entire room. The meeting had been going on for so long that the Primarchs discovered that they had indeed never counted this issue. Even the Emperor was in the dark. After all, the Empire was so huge, who knew how many people there were?

Summoning Calgar who had been prepared for a long time, Guilliman threw a form over:
"According to the latest material allocation list, our forces have been restored to their peak state during the Great Crusade. I know the personnel of each of your legions very clearly. Take the Ultramarines as an example. I can allocate 25 troops for the expedition. As for the number of Astra Militarum, it can be said that if you give me a chance, I can capture Holy Terra."

The Emperor's face darkened even further, and after Guilliman started the conversation, the other Primarchs also reported the specific numbers of their respective legions, all counting based on the capture of Holy Terra.

Even the Hydra Legion, which was not known for its military strength, said that if they were given a certain amount of time, they would be able to overthrow the Solar System and make the garrison troops there fight each other to the point of beating each other to pieces, which made the Emperor so angry that he cursed his son for being disrespectful.

At this point, the specific date for the launch of the Great Crusade was successfully finalized, and each legion was given three months to assemble and prepare, and to leave personnel behind to defend their homeland.

After the final goal was finalized, a new question was brought up. Alpha said that the dark side of the empire not only has alien demons, but also rebel space marines. Can we...

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" The one who firmly opposed was Hogg, which puzzled all the Primarchs. After all, among their brothers, Hogg could be said to be the most heretical, and he was also the first one to propose to recruit them.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Hogg moved the star map and pointed at Alicia who was next to the big rift and said:

“I gave them 100 years. During this time, I treated all Chaos warbands that came to Alicia equally, gave them money, food, and equipment, and allowed them to go on an expedition of atonement.

As long as they complete the mission, which I think is a life-threatening one, no matter what they have done before, I will give them a new status. As long as they succeed, even if only one person survives, I will send the best pharmacist to purify them, and I will even do it myself to purify the chaos pollution in their bodies.

Huron is my black glove. This is known to everyone in the empire. But a whole century has passed, and there are still insects who refuse to surrender. They must die!"

Hogg set the tone for the matter and won the unanimous agreement of all the brothers. The Emperor also rarely said that Hogg had finally grown up and was no longer the unlucky son who hung out with aliens.

After the meeting, the Emperor ordered everyone to assemble the fleet and march to Holy Terra for a military parade three months later.

Watching the Emperor's Vision leaving Alicia's orbit, the Primarchs remained silent. A strange atmosphere filled the entire dock. No one spoke, and no one left.

It was because the Emperor called each of them over individually before leaving and said the same thing, that is, when they gathered on Holy Terra, they would choose the Imperial Warmaster of this Great Crusade.

Although they all saw the true face of the Emperor, the blood connection still made the Primarch very eager to be recognized by the Emperor and acknowledge that he was his proudest offspring.

Looking around, seeing that everyone was silent, the commander of the Imperial Guards, Waldo, who was arranged to stay behind to act as the handover officer, sighed and said a word that expressed his inner concerns:

"send!"
