Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 69

Chapter 69, The Emperor’s Daughter

Gu Hang patted Lambert on the shoulder and said, “I know you are anxious, but being anxious at this time will only make things worse. Calm down, you need to mobilize all your connections and hidden forces in Fuxing City as much as possible to find out what happened.”

After a pause, Gu Hang continued, “In addition, I will be prepared. If necessary, I will enter the city.”

“You want to enter Fuxing City?”

“The Governor must return to his position.” Gu Hang said, “What’s more, Speaker Hodgson is working for me now. If he is in trouble because of this, I will try my best to rescue him alive; if… I mean if, the worst happens, I will avenge him.”

“Thank you! Governor!”

“Go, do your thing.”

Gu Hang sat back in his seat after watching Lambert leave.

Revenge, of course Gu Hang is serious about this. Old Hodgson has been sitting on the Diaoyutai for many years, and he can’t be the Speaker of the Parliament without a foundation. After going through so many ups and downs without any problems, he suddenly encountered a disaster after he made it clear that he would support him… If the Governor Gu Hang didn’t do something, it would not work.

In addition to this reason, there was another stronger and more urgent reason for Gu Hang to make the decision:

someone had declared war on him.

Although the situation was still unclear, after Hodgson made it clear that he supported him, he dared to attack him in Renaissance City, which was undoubtedly a war.

Whether the one who declared war on him was the heretic who believed in the original wrathful owl or the conservative faction in the alliance government, Gu Hang had to respond.

In fact, his current preparations were not sufficient.

In his past plans, he would personally enter Renaissance City, which should be two to three months later. By then, the economy and production capacity of his territory would be able to support him to fully support an army at least three times larger than the current size for short-term military operations.

By that time, with the Quintet’s railgun as the greatest deterrent and his systematically trained troops as conventional means, he would return to Renaissance City and completely control the city.

With this, he will have a population of nearly one million. The production potential provided by the technology panel will be greatly realized; politically, he can truly exercise the power of the governor as the governor, with military force as a guarantee, quickly sweep all the surrounding gathering places, and incorporate them into the production system he has built.

Now, it seems that this plan has to be advanced.

Since it is a war, there is no such thing as “preparation”. He can’t ask others to wait until he is ready before fighting.

But there is good news.

Gu Hang’s strength has not been accumulated, but he now has the help of the Space Marines, which is an enhancement beyond his plan.

The seven Phoenix veterans, the help they provide, may be more valuable than the military force that Gu Hang will develop and expand in the next two months.

“Go to war, then go to war.” “

It’s not a bad thing to plan ahead of time.”

It’s a pity that old Hodgson… I hope he’s okay.

…

Gu Hang’s troops were assembled quickly. As usual, the mechanical servant battalion would be left to look after the house. The remaining five battalions formed an infantry regiment, waiting for the next order.

The mission request was sent to the Phoenix Regiment and received a positive response.

Gu Hang personally communicated with Ye Lixia, and the two communicated for about half an hour. Ye Lixia said that the entire starship would enter a combat readiness state from now on. As long as the governor needed it, the orbital gun strike would hit any location he designated within 20 minutes. Starting tomorrow, the starship’s combat readiness mission would be completed and enter a wartime state, which means that the time for the orbital gun strike could be shortened to less than 10 minutes.

At the same time, with the combat target being very likely to include cult heresy, Gu Hang’s combat mission here would be supported by the national religion team on the starship.

A team of combat nuns would arrive on the surface in six hours.

This is another extra surprise!

Until now, Gu Hang knew that there was actually a team of combat nuns on the Quintet? On the way to the Angry Owl Star, he didn’t know this all along!

Combat nuns are also a legendary group.

They are the only armed force of the Imperial Church. After the Theocratic War, the Church was not allowed to have any armed men. But they held on to this word, supported the Sisters, and founded the Battle Sisters.

These battle sisters who were blessed by the Church and had extremely firm beliefs were called “Daughters of the Emperor.” They may not be as powerful as the Space Marines who were implanted with gene seeds, but they can gain extraordinary power under the blessing of the Emperor.

They also wear special power armor. Unlike the Space Marines, they can’t have a modified spinal cord to connect directly to the armor, but they can drive the armor through the power of divine magic. And their blessed armor, although not as heavy as the Space Marines, is still a terrible weapon.

At first, he thought it was strange that there was a team of battle sisters stationed on the Quintet, but after searching his memory, he suddenly realized it.

The Sisters have many branches. In addition to the main ones, there are also some subordinate second- and third-class orders. Of course, they also need a place to stay, usually with important institutions of the state religion. In the Pegasus sector, on the hive planet Koroja 3, there is a state religion cathedral. It is not only the most important branch of the Empire’s state religion in this sector, but also the faith hub of many surrounding sectors.

And there, the “Holy Lily Sisters” are stationed.

On large starships like the Quintet, the church is a necessary place. Usually, priests and nuns need to soothe the crew’s mind on the warship; in wartime, they will resist the corruption from evil.

In this case, if the star region government and the state religion have a closer military cooperation, it is not impossible to equip an additional team of combat nuns in addition to the regular starship church.

And similar to the space warriors, the combat nuns are not directly under the command of Captain Ye Lishia. But after all, on the same ship, if there is a request, it is normal for them to agree.

What’s more, this time it was not Ye Lishia’s request. It was the news of the cult on the Wrath of the Owl that reached these “daughters of the Emperor”, and they took the initiative to ask for battle.

The fanatical battle sisters will not tolerate the existence of heresy.

With the help of these battle sisters who are not much weaker than the Space Marines, Gu Hang’s action is even more powerful.

What’s more, in comparison, these battle sisters are more professional anti-cult experts than the Space Marines. If there is still a shadow of the original wrathful owl sect in this matter, the Emperor’s daughter will give them a huge surprise.
