Hearing Soshyan mention principles and ethics, Tirian suddenly showed a playful expression and turned to ask
"Ha, does the chapter leader understand history?"
"I don't know much about it."
"After the end of the Beast War, Grand Master Wandrich of the Assassin Court killed all the high lords and became the dictator of Terra for a full hundred years. Finally, he was killed by Thrawn, the then Chapter Master of the Imperial Fists in 646.M32
, Later, the Ultramarines Chapter Master Agnacio led an alliance of more than fifty chapters to Terra to clean up the situation and rebuilt the Imperial Council of High Lords. 200.M35, with the support of eleven chapters, the new
The Parliament of Terra announced that it would not recognize the rights of the Supreme Lords of Terra, and led the Taiping Star Territory to become independent from the Empire. For 900 years, the Empire was in a state of internal division, until the eleven war groups were newly formed by twenty
All battle groups were destroyed. In 270.M36, Grand Marshal Sekinandus of the Black Templars and the Imperial Fists and other four battle groups launched an attack on Vandire who was entrenched in the Royal Palace of Terra, and overthrew the Minister of Internal Affairs.
and the pope of the state religion, basically destroying the armed force of the state religion."
After Tyrion finished speaking, he spread his hands.
"The Astartes have never left the political realm of the empire. In other words, almost all major political events in the empire are inseparable from the presence of the Astartes. After all, all words spoken will eventually be implemented in fists."
After listening to this, Soshyan squeezed out a smile.
"Then the fact that Itu Hamotarion occupies such a dominant position in the High Lords Council is also related to the Minotaur Chapter?"
"Part of it."
"But the Storm Star Territory is far away from Terra, so maybe we can't provide you with any help."
Tyrion shook his head.
"I misunderstood, I don't want you to be my thug, and I don't intend to fight with Hamotarion to the death. For me now, the power in my hands is enough, at least the high lords have
For me, it’s not a difficult character to deal with. What I really can’t deal with is the army of heretics, the overwhelming aliens, and the local lords who don’t only know how to cause trouble except for enjoying shit.”
"Then what do you want me to do for you?"
Tyrion then replied very seriously:
"When the storm rises, when the situation really develops to an irreversible point, I hope you can come back here."
"Tyla?"
Soshyan frowned slightly.
"What can happen here?"
"Perhaps it's too early to say this now, but I've always been well prepared. At least I can foresee the situation in the empire. It will only get worse, not better. Everything and all forces are there.
A critical point, when it reaches that moment, everything will collapse. The empire may seem unchanged, but in fact, a drastic change will occur every three or four thousand years... If the next drastic change happens while I am alive, then I hope
At least it can guide it in a good direction, or at least a new direction. I have always suspected that this galaxy is about to become something I don't recognize. A darker era is before us, and we need to have stronger people.
To face this era with our own souls, the empire can no longer go around in circles."
"What are you going to do if I really come back to Terra?"
Tyrion did not answer, but said something meaningful.
"We won't know until then."
Soshyan said nothing, tapping his fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair, and the words Mortal had said to him before appeared in his mind again - everything was decided by himself.
He realized early on that this expedition was being pushed by others, and the reason was that he had almost no helpers on Terra, and he would not know what would happen. The Imperial Fists would still abide by their principles after all.
, they will not cross the line to help them, especially after the death of Pew, the Hagen Chapter Leader is not that enthusiastic about the Astral Knights to the naked eye. Perhaps this is the so-called letting go of people.
So in the current complicated situation, if he doesn't have some control over Terra's current situation, maybe something will catch him off guard next time.
More importantly, if others can use Terra's power to deal with him, then he must have the means to deal with it, or at least have an early warning, and some of what Tirian said really touched him.
No matter what happens to him personally in the future, if the empire really faces a major crisis or major change, he will never stand idly by.
Although he still had concerns in his heart.
"Aren't you worried that the high lords will find out about this? In other words, the fact that I am here today has probably been put on their table. Aren't you worried that they will target you because of this?"
"In a sense, yes, the high lords have been cautious since the beginning of their establishment and have continued to this day. They know their history and what has happened in the past. The power of the Adeptus Astartes is still unparalleled, even after it was dismantled.
After being divided into Chapters, if hundreds of Chapters united are still more powerful than any military force in the Empire, so the High Lords try their best to keep the Throne World away from the Chapter Masters, and the Inquisition will not allow any
A chapter comes too close to the throne for some benefit, and no matter how disgusted it is, it is mutual for both parties - the chapter also prefers to stay in the void, so that it can fight the enemies entrenched there."
"It is for these reasons that the only Space Marines I have met so far, the golden warriors of the Imperial Fists, still maintain a monastery on the world they once defended alone, and they are also the most frequent visitors to the radiant inner court.
People in the Hall, but like I said before, this situation will also change. From the moment the Minotaur was established, the high lords have realized that the Adeptus Astartes is also their most important
Conveniently used to intervene in the internal situation of the empire. I have never intended to hide the fact that I am friendly with you. The high lords will think that I am increasing my political chips. This is within the scope of what they can accept.
Believe me, I know them better than anyone. I will never be able to get a seat in the High Lords Council. I am both in and outside the circle of power. The bargaining chip in my hand will not make them nervous, it will only make them nervous.
Make them curious."
Since the other party was so confident, Soshyan no longer hesitated and nodded.
"If...it is really necessary in the future, Prime Minister, I will respond to your call and return to Terra, but I do not want this to mean the outbreak of a civil war in the solar system."
"Don't worry, violence is never an option for me."
Soshyan hesitated for a while, and then said something.
"Aren't you worried that I will eventually live up to your expectations? Maybe I'm not as... important as you think."
"I am a person who is good at summarizing patterns. When you were assigned to the expedition, I did my best to collect information about your past. Chapter Commander Soshyan, I trust my speculation and vision."
"What is your theory?"
"A great will has given you great responsibilities."
Soshyan was speechless, but he had mixed feelings in his heart. He didn't know if this was a cold joke. Maybe when he returned to Terra again, he was no longer the person Tirian knew.
