Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 62
Chapter 62, Very Disappointed
Every Space Marine Chapter is a powerful force. If fully staffed, they will not only have a thousand top fighters, but also a fleet, and hundreds of thousands or even millions of well-equipped mortal auxiliary troops. The
Empire will establish such a chapter after another to garrison certain important worlds, and when necessary, send them to a key battlefield in the star sea to play a decisive role.
The Phoenix Chapter has washed away its sins. Logically, the Empire should support their reconstruction. Adding one more chapter may ensure the stability of one or even several star regions.
But the Empire did not do so.
Gu Hang can’t control the higher-level game now, but as Ye Lixia warned, the Phoenix Chapter must be in trouble.
What Ye Lixia meant by “if Gu Hang needs it, she can stop it” is that she is not willing to directly intercept a Space Marine Chapter, even if it is a remnant, because it will cause a lot of trouble.
But if Gu Hang is willing to take the blame and he, the planetary governor, initiates the request, then she can take the risk to help.
It’s already good enough to be able to do this. Gu Hang knows that she means well.
Including her help, including her warnings.
It seems that this female captain, unconsciously, has begun to be willing to regard Gu Hang as an ally.
This is a good sign.
However, Gu Hang still rejected Ye Lixia’s kindness.
What’s the point of intercepting these space warriors? For the time being, Gu Hang has no intention of giving up this activated event chain.
He is really greedy for the remnant regiment.
Even if the Phoenix Regiment is weak now, it is still a regiment. If he can get their service, then he will have no obstacles to sweep across the entire Angry Owl Star.
Starships are awesome, but no matter how awesome they are, they can only bombard from the sky. Ye Lixia can’t send troops down for land battles. Even if it is a real land battle, her few marines are useless.
Orbital bombardment is a strategic deterrent nuclear weapon, and it will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary. As for intimidation alone…hasn’t Gu Hang been using it for the past month? Otherwise, the Fuxing City government couldn’t be so “obedient” that they would give the supplies when asked, and they would go to such lengths to investigate the cult and give an explanation. Hodgson, the president of the Alliance Parliament, even voted for them.
How could the title of governor alone be enough? All the governors in the past had titles, but they were still doomed? Disobeying orders is a low-level trick, deceiving superiors and subordinates, pretending to obey but secretly disobeying, not following orders after receiving them, concealing actual information…If you don’t have your own power, you will be fooled around, and you may even think that everything is under control. Lelehe … He had to be on the ground, with real power, subordinates who would definitely obey him, and reliable military force. He could ensure that others could not deceive him, and those who did not obey his orders would be suppressed by force, and the suppression method could not be destructive like orbital bombing. The Angry Owl Star was already very bad. If they really used ship guns to bombard the City of Renaissance, they would really not be able to pay taxes. The Phoenix was such a conventional force. With the help of the Space Marines, Gu Hang could ensure that the person died when making a judgment, instead of destroying a city with orbital bombing just to kill some people. However, when he really saw the Phoenix Regiment, he was still shocked. … A few hours later, he stood on the landing field and watched the sky fall… It was the Burning Feather, a ship… Well, it can’t be called a starship, it can only be called a spaceship. It was too small. When Gu Hang first learned that the regiment planned to land their spaceship directly on the surface, he was shocked, fearing that there would be no place to put it. In his impression, even if it was a frigate, there were thousands of crew members on it, and it would be a huge thing when it landed on the ground. But now, it was just this? It was only one or two times larger than the transport ship on the Quintet responsible for communicating with the ground.
No, it’s a remnant, but can it be so remnant that it doesn’t even have a starship?
Space Marines? That’s it?
Could it be a vanguard?
The hatch opened, and Gu Hang first saw a figure who was much stronger and taller than a normal person, wearing a power armor with a bright red main body and white trim, holding a grenade launcher, and walked out of the hatch of the spacecraft. His heavy steps, each step can be taken with an extremely majestic posture.
His power armor is not bright and beautiful, and there are slight traces of damage in many places. But this is more a symbol of him being a veteran who has survived hundreds of battles, and countless people, monsters, aliens, and traitors have died in his hands.
Under his bright red helmet, his cold eyes stared at Gu Hang.
Gu Hang felt a piercing chill.
Is this called murderous aura?
I’m not afraid, but I feel a little excited.
The first time I saw a space marine in person, Gu Hang felt that the reputation was well-deserved. It was indeed a powerful warrior whose reputation was widely spread throughout the universe.
He watched the Space Marines come out of the hatch one by one, his expression becoming more and more satisfied.
Then, his satisfaction came to an abrupt end.
Only seven people came out, and there was nothing behind them.
Just seven?
No, what kind of a warband is seven people? They can’t even form a tactical squad!
He knew that this was a dying warband, but… to be in such a mess, it was too dying, wasn’t it?
Gu Hang was a little disappointed.
…
Martins was a little disappointed.
He came out at the end of the team and saw the Governor who came to greet him.
He knew that it was Gu Hang, the person he wanted to see, the light that Pastor Rizzo had foreseen and that might save the warband.
On the way here, he had been looking forward to the Wrathful Owl Star being a rich planet, or a developed forging world. The Governor here has a powerful force, and will be very friendly to the warband and willing to help the warband rebuild…
but… things don’t seem to be what he thought.
The Governor in front of him, isn’t he a little too ordinary?
He is neither tall nor strong. Apart from his good looks, he looks like an ordinary mortal.
Of course, Martins can feel the psychic reaction from this governor, which is not weak, but that is only relative to ordinary mortals. That psychic strength can not pose a threat to him or any of his fighting brothers. The power armor on them has a certain anti-psychic effect. Their own bodies transformed by gene seeds and strong mental will are not something that ordinary psychics can shake. It may be a bit exaggerated
to say that Gu Hang can be killed like a chicken. It is more appropriate to say that it is like a strong man strangling a wolfdog.
Of course, comparing a mortal to the angel of death is too harsh. The strength of a planetary governor does not lie in the individual.
But…
look at this planet?
Look at this… Martins doesn’t know whether to describe it as a small town or a camp.
Does the ruling core of this governor look like this?
