507, The Minotaur in Holy Terra: Shadow of the Regent! (5)
[In the first month, the Primaris Astartes of the Minotaur Chapter brought an almost devastating blow to the major gangs in the Terra Hive. 】
[The laser guns in the hands of gang members and the damaged equipment and vehicles secretly recovered from the chaotic battlefield can only bully ordinary unarmed civilians. Even the judicial police force of the Ministry of Justice can easily deal with it. 】
[Unfortunately, the current Marshal of the Ministry of Justice is a stubborn conservative.]
[Furthermore, the opponent, who is a Terran noble, will not let his men rectify the Terran nest for the sake of the lives of ordinary civilians. 】
[After all, a large group of low-level pariahs who are comparable to Tyranid bugs and can only eat food rations, it is better to let them fend for themselves. 】
[Soon after, most of the Terra Hive was covered with the drying corpses of gang members.]
[And what you are doing now is, on the one hand, to gain the trust of the civilians in the hive city, and on the other hand, it is also to break the original rules in the Terra hive city and give everyone a new order from the root, thereby creating a new order for everyone.
Lay a stronger foundation for what you want to do next.]
[However, in order to maintain the survival of countless ordinary civilians throughout the Terra Hive, the gang supplies captured by the war group alone are completely insufficient.]
[So, you, who originally planned to order the Astartes to secretly plunder the empire's transportation supplies, had an idea and tried to contact the former Minister of the Interior who stood behind the Minotaur Chapter. 】
[You successfully obtained a special warrant from the Supreme Council of Terra by pretending to be a coward with the other party.]
[You can freely withdraw nearly unlimited supplies of food and ammunition from various lower-level departments of the Ministry of Interior. 】
[At the same time, with the gradual restoration of chaotic order in most Terra nests, and the continuous arrival of countless food supplies. 】
[Today's Minotaur Chapter and the invisible prestige of you, the chapter leader, have almost reached a certain peak. ]
[If you wave your arms to the people in the hive city now, it is possible that not only hundreds of billions of people will be willing to fight for you, but at least hundreds of millions or even more than a billion civilians in the hive city will be willing to follow you. 】
[Of course, you wouldn’t really do something like this that could easily cause misunderstanding.]
[In the second month, what completely returned to most hive cities was not only the security and order brought by the Minotaur Chapter, but also the intelligence network you built using countless civilians in the hive cities. 】
[In order to thank you for your grace of survival, countless civilians in the Terra Nest have voluntarily become Terran citizens and provided you with a lot of intelligence information. 】
[In this way, not only the spies planted by a large number of forces in the hive city were exposed like bright lights, but also the cultists who had always threatened Holy Terra were gradually exposed. 】
[The next thing, for the Minotaur Chapter and you, is far simpler than rectifying the Terra Nest, that is killing, a lot of bloody killing. 】
[Due to the support of various intelligence information, you can always successfully end the battle before the battle team composed of the Imperial Fists and the Custodes attacks the cultists' stronghold. 】
[Although this caused dissatisfaction with the Minotaur Chapter on both sides, it received strong support from the former Minister of the Interior. ]
[Because these high lords who intend to incite rebellion want to use this to set off and portray the new reformist government that Guilliman has just formed as a weak and incompetent administrative agency. Only their conservatives are the only saviors of the empire.
kind of impression.]
[And your Minotaur war group happens to be an important chess piece in their camp.]
[Taking this opportunity, you also successfully obtained another special warrant for mobilizing the battle group's vehicles on Holy Terra.]
[However, just when you were planning to continue to exterminate the cultists, someone came to see you in person. 】
[At this moment, inside a hive city that has just ended a short battle, countless ordinary civilians are recycling metal debris everywhere, as well as the bodies of unlucky people who have suffered unlucky disasters or cultists. 】
[However, the numbness and indifference are no longer on their faces, but only the expectation and hope of rebuilding their homes. 】
[At the same time, some Primaris Astartes who were patrolling and guarding would also help the civilians in the hive city to move or erect some metal ruins that required lifting equipment, thus gaining warm support from the other side.
Praise.]
[It can be said that since Holy Terra has endured the costs of the Horus Heresy and many tragic wars, the relationship between the people of Terra and the Astartes has never been so harmonious. 】
[At this moment, a Forbidden Forces combat team wearing golden power armor and several Sisters of Silence wearing sky-high braids stepped into the entrance of this hive city. ]
[Although all the Primaris Astartes did not block the progress of these people because they received the order you issued in advance, but as the Custodes team and the Sisters of Silence gradually deepened. 】
[More and more people in the hive city are surrounding the Forbidden Army team with unkind expressions.]
[The Minotaur Chapter is able to gain the respect and love of the hive city civilians with the blood of countless gang members and cultists. 】
[Every battle and effort they make is seen by the civilians of the hive city. Even if you do not deliberately promote it, the hive city people who are close to you will spontaneously protect your image. 】
[And just when the Sisters of Silence and the Forbidden Forces combat team subconsciously raised their vigilance and alert, they couldn't help but clenched the weapons in their palms. 】
【"Everyone, go and do your own business! Let them come in!"]
[You drive the blood-stained Terminator powered armor on the ceramic shell, slowly revealing an extremely tall and strong figure.]
[In an instant, countless ordinary people who surrounded the Sisters of Silence and the Forbidden Forces combat team silently made way for you to make way for you. 】
[Many people among them raised a palm and clenched it into a fist in the direction of you and waved it, then turned around and went about their own business. Only some bored civilians and children in the hive city remained.
People nearby keep spying on your meeting.]
["I'm sorry, the civilians in our hive city have little culture. The only imperial language they can write is for the emperor. I hope you won't mind their ignorance."]
[While driving the Terminator Powered Armor and stepping forward, you slowly spoke in a low voice to the Forbidden Forces combat team that fell into silence. ]
[You shook the metal helmet slightly. Your tall body was just over half a head taller than the people in this forbidden army combat team, allowing you to overlook their every move.]
["The Guard Corps of the Royal Palace of Terra, Captain of the Imperial Guard Shield, my name is Valyrian...this is Silent Sister Alea and her companions."]
[A Forbidden Army Shield Captain wearing golden power armor broke the silence first. He slightly raised his metal helmet and spoke in the direction of your eyepiece. 】
["Dear Minotaur Chapter Master, can you explain to our Imperial Guards why you have spent so much time rectifying the Terra Hive and exterminating the cultists?"]
