Plans for the Future (1)

A few minutes ago.

Ulg assembled his army, this time using all his resources.

Because, at some point, a rumor began to circulate in the galaxy he ruled.

They think Gork and Mork) isn't waaaaagh!

So we'll unleash the Teeth of Gork and Mork, and show them what real waaaagh is!

Ulg neither confirmed nor denied this.

Without a doubt, as the Overlord of Ullanor, he was the most powerful underling of Gork and Mork.

If his actions still don't satisfy Gork and Mork, then without a doubt, all the Orks of Ullanor are Gretchin!

Therefore, he mobilized all his troops.

He wants to prove that he's capable enough!

According to the original plan, they were supposed to find the group of canned goods that were the most waaagh and then have a good fight with them.

But they had only been out of the core region of the Ullanor System for a short time when they saw that group of the most waaaagh canned goods.

This made them ecstatic.

I was originally planning to go find them, but now these little bastards are blocking my doorstep, isn't that perfect?

Just as they were preparing to teach these shrimps a lesson...

Suddenly, a blazing white light rose up, and before they could react, they were instantly turned into gas.

Even Ulg was no exception.

"Old Han, in my estimation, the Ullanor Crusade will take even longer; however, it will be both arduous and glorious."

In Han Mingxuan's room, the Emperor found him again, feeling it necessary to have a serious talk with Han Mingxuan.

The Father of Night's actions were far more ruthless than he had imagined.

"Don't give me any 'honor' nonsense, Emperor. Your plan has entered its most crucial phase. We don't have that much time to wait to wipe out the Orks."

"The military needs to preserve its strength, and the cleanup needs to be efficient."

"Therefore, I chose the most efficient method. Besides, how many Planets has the Imperium of Man destroyed? It's just that my method is beyond your imagination."

In the Imperial Army circles, the most effective Planet -destroying weapon is generally considered to be the Exterminatus or the Gloriana-class Battleship.

They never considered using a Star as a bomb.

This isn't a question of cruelty or not; it's simply a difference in philosophies of war.

"Old Han, these are things I should have done."

"Stop pretending with me. I'm a Schoolteacher, but I'm not made of dough."

"I have no qualms about dealing with nobles and Xenos."

"Alright, get ready for a bumper harvest."

"A bumper harvest?"

"Although the Planets in the core region were directly vaporized, the Planets in the outer regions were burned into glass. Once the outer shell was knocked off, what remained were mineral resources."

"Believe me, even if half of the Ullanor System were blown up, the remaining half of the Planets would still be enough to keep the entire Imperium running for several more years."

"As for the long and arduous journey of glory you mentioned, the Orks weren't completely wiped out, so let's just consider it practice for the Imperium army."

The Emperor fell into a long silence.

"Maybe I shouldn't have sent you to the front lines, Old Han."

"There's no point in talking about this now, Your Emperor. Let's talk about something else."

"Alright, Old Han, what do you want to talk about?"

Regarding Psychic Powers and the Warp.

"What's there to talk about? You and I both know perfectly well what's going on with the Warp."

"But you lied to your children; you chose to hide the truth."

"More than a decade ago, Xiao Mo and I went to Nuceria. Back then, you asked me to bring Angron back, do you remember?"

"Of course I remember that."

"But it was then that I discovered that Mortarion knew very little, if any, about the truth of the Warp."

"So, regarding the truth about the Warp more than a decade ago, only the Primarch who went to Nostramo for the first time knew, and even then, only a part of it, right?"

The Emperor looked at Han Mingxuan but did not choose to answer directly; in fact, his silence confirmed Han Mingxuan's guess.

They don't need to know.

"They have the right to know, Your Emperor. Your concealment will sow the seeds of discord."

"But fate has other plans, Old Han. No matter what you do, half of the Primarch will eventually betray you."

It's that damned notion of fate again.

"You really are just like those Chaos Gods in the Warp, still superstitious about so-called fate. If fate is truly like this, then why did I appear?"

"Your Emperor, honesty is essential. If you can't do that, then you deserve to sit on Golden Throne."

The Emperor remained silent, his eyes filled with struggle as he looked at Han Mingxuan.

His dearest friend, the hope of this Imperium, Primarch's most respected Uncle.

He probably never imagined that in the near future, he would be the one to sit on that instrument of torture.

"Now tell me, Your Emperor, how many Primarch still don't know the truth?"

"There is none left."

You're lying.

"There really aren't any left, Old Han, but the truth won't come from my mouth."

Oh?

"Is it Mortarion?"

The Emperor nodded silently.

"Old Han, you know very well that Mortarion is the most resilient of my many sons, and at the same time, he's also the one who looks down on me the most."

"During the three years you were forced back to Nostramo for your Anti-Corruption work, Mortarion told his brothers part of the truth he knew."

Tsk.

It has to be Xiao Mo; he's quick on his feet.

"Didn't you even offer any thanks back then?"

"How so? If it weren't for the immense pressure of the Imperium Anti-Corruption efforts, they would definitely have blocked the Throne Room."

"Now that they know the truth, let's talk about the next thing."

"You continue."

"Regarding the Imperium's Psychic Power Awakening, do not evade this issue, Your Emperor. You know very well that humanity is the strongest Psychic Power race after the Aeldari."

"The Warp cannot exist without humanity, and humanity cannot exist without the Warp; it is the Sea of Souls."

"Although it's a cesspool now, it's a fact that I need your clear answer regarding humanity's Psychic Power Awakening."

"Do you know something?"

The Emperor keenly sensed the problem, because the things Han Mingxuan was mentioning were far too pointed.

This involves policies for the entire Imperium of Man afterward, and it is very important.

"Neoth, I'm not like you, nor like Tzeentch. There are some things I don't want to lie to you about. I know everything about your deal with Tzeentch and the details of your plans."

Upon hearing Han Mingxuan's words, the Emperor was stunned for a moment.

How did you know?

"Then let me ask you, does your hemorrhoid still hurt?"

Hiss...

"At all times, my friend, this is torture for me."

"So now you know the answer, right?"

The Emperor nodded, his gaze towards Han Mingxuan filled with envy and even a hint of resentment.

"I really envy you, Old Han."

"If you had learned to be more honest, you wouldn't have suffered like this. Okay, let's talk about what's next."
