Meanwhile, on the other side.
"What is the Ninth Fleet doing now? Why doesn't that Zhong Kai send me a briefing?"
Honestly, Chang Wei was already a bit irritated. He'd thought his generosity, his initial overtures to goodwill, would slowly mend his brotherly relationship with Zhong Kai. Instead, not only did Zhong Kai not appreciate his kindness, he even seemed to be plotting something behind his back. Now, he was being completely lawless, disregarding even a Warmaster like him, refusing to even send him a fleet briefing?
You know, if you're the only one showing some temper, it doesn't matter. Chang Wei will just turn a blind eye and let it go.
But if you lead troops outside, then any decision you make may involve the safety of everyone.
If they messed up, at best, the Ninth Fleet and the Imperial Army led by Guilliman would be in a life-or-death situation. At worst, it could cause serious loopholes in the overall layout of this expedition, resulting in irreparable losses!
Therefore, if any special situation really occurs, Chang Wei can also quickly adjust the deployment and modify the tactical strategy based on the fleet briefing sent.
As a result, because of what Zhong Kai did, Chang Wei instantly lost all the movements of the Ninth Fleet and Guilliman. How could he not be angry?
Matt Horner, having been called over, turned around and saw Chang Wei's simmering anger. He didn't know how to respond for a moment. He reported truthfully, "We did send a signal to the Ninth Fleet, but there seems to be severe signal interference on the other side, and there's been no response yet. I think maybe... maybe... maybe... something is preventing normal communication?"
Matt Horner also knew something about the conflicts and estrangement between the two brothers, so the excuses he found were relatively tactful and he did not fan the flames to avoid escalating the conflict.
But Chang Wei didn't believe such a lame excuse.
What kind of signal interference could possibly block super-quantum communication? Even if communication were blocked, wouldn't they have dispatched a warship to warp over and deliver the message? Even if they were attacked by massive Chaos forces, the surrounding star fields were obscured by Warp energy. But they hadn't entered the Warp. Could that tiny idealistic force cause such a massive physical interference with the real universe? Do you believe they could perform a physical exorcism in a matter of minutes?
Thinking of this, Chang Wei immediately gave a gloomy and serious order: "Send a small fleet immediately to find out the truth! I need to know what Zhong Kai and Guilliman are doing?"
"Okay, sir. I'll take care of it right away!"
After Matt Horner left, Chang Wei sat in the command chair on the bridge and rubbed his swollen temple. He couldn't understand what Zhong Kai was thinking. Wasn't he just being seduced by the dark side? It wasn't his own will. I don't mind it myself, so why should he be bothered? Is this stalemate and cold war going to continue forever?
Just when Chang Wei was getting annoyed, a report came from the technical soldier below the bridge.
"Warmaster! Our fleet has entered the Octarius sector! We have detected a massive battle between a large number of Orks and a large number of Tyranids on a planet!"
Chang Wei withdrew his thoughts and was soon attracted by this notice.
In the Warhammer 40,000 universe, the Xenomorphs are the Empire's mortal enemies, and humanity often has an absolute advantage in terms of both military strength and military power. However, among all the various Xenomorphs, there are four main types that are the most powerful and have caused humanity considerable harm.
They are:
The Orks are biological weapons created by the Ancients, possessing super reproductive abilities and a special psychic power called "The Power of Thought".
The Tyranids are bloodthirsty and crazy, able to devour everything and constantly evolve, but their main force is outside the galaxy and there are no Tyranids arriving.
There are also the elves, descendants of the ancient gods, who possess a strong foundation of knowledge and powerful psychic powers.
As well as the Necrons who are all mechanically ascended, extremely materialistic, and have very advanced technology.
Have you ever wondered why the Imperium hasn't suffered any major disasters since the Horus Heresy? Why haven't these races launched large-scale attacks against the Imperium?
During this period, the Imperium's administrative system decayed, loyal Primarchs died or disappeared, and the various Astartes Legions were split up, their numbers plummeting! With the exception of the Ultramarines, many other Chapters gradually vanished in the long years of battle and history. Compared to the Imperium's heyday, the number of canned goods left is barely one-tenth of what it was at its peak.
Even during this darkest and weakest period of the empire, why didn't the empire's mortal enemies take the opportunity to launch a crazy attack on the empire?
The reason is that the number of elves is small and their reproduction rate is low, so they are still recuperating in the webway.
The Necrons also did not get enough sleep and were still in a large-scale slumber.
The Orks and Tyranids, the most powerful and well-positioned, have been constantly attacking each other in the Octares sector. The battle is so intense it's practically mind-boggling! Without outside intervention, the two races would have fought until the end of the 41st millennium, when the Orks' Bonebreakers suddenly departed for Armageddon, allowing the Tyranids to achieve a final victory and leading to the demise of the Ork Empire in that sector.
The Human Empire had actually discovered the war between the two races a long time ago and wanted to intervene, but it did not have the ability to do so.
Generally speaking, in this kind of "clams fighting, the fisherman benefits" situation, it is best for humans not to intervene so quickly, but should wait until both sides are defeated and then deal with them together. Taking advantage is the best strategy.
