Warhammer: Just unified the Empire, you said it was 40K

Chapter 101: Open Door, Free Trade
The Eastern Sector of the Tau Empire.

In recent times, many areas have suffered repeated attacks from humans.

Fortunately, this part of the home world is the border line after the expansion of the Tau Empire's sky. The races in these worlds have not been completely integrated into the order of their Tau Empire. Most of them even have second thoughts about the Tau Empire. Even if they are conquered by them, they still resist everything about the Tau Empire in their hearts.

Let humans attack.

In this way, these guys will see clearly who is more reliable in this universe.

It will also speed up their return to the arms of the Tau Empire.

The Reiqi World, this home world is an enclave that does not belong to the Tau Empire, nor is it an etheric caste world directly controlled by the Tau Empire's ether. It is a world with a half-ally relationship.

Previously, the Reiqi World had always resisted the Tau Empire. After being attacked by the Gamma World, they quickly moved closer to the Tau Empire, threw themselves into the arms of the Tau Empire, and even took the initiative to request the Tau Empire to station troops.

This situation made the commander of the region in the Tau Empire very excited.

When humans attack once, the gains they incur far outweigh the losses.

They even want the other party to come a few more times.

Anyway, they just grab a wave and leave.

Even if we let them grab whatever they want, how much can they grab?
Instead, it will promote the integration of other races and strengthen their power.

"Fortunately, humans can only plunder our resource ships and won't destroy anything we own. They certainly can't enslave us. As long as we disperse our resources, they won't be able to steal much. Furthermore, the Tau have already moved to the vicinity of the Second Expansion Homeworld, so they won't be able to capture too many Tau either. Once the Tau Empire's Damocles Gulf War is over, it will be time to settle accounts with humanity."

"They thought they could just grab a few and leave, but they never dreamed that their presence would force these forces that had difficulty integrating into the Tau Empire to quickly integrate with us. They will regret provoking the Tau Empire, this dormant man-eating shark. The Greater Good will teach them how to tuck their tails in and behave themselves."

Peace is rare in the eastern sector of the Tau Empire.

The proud fire warriors from the land of enlightenment sneered and mocked humanity's foolish shortsightedness. Their words had already determined that humanity was bound to fail, while the Greater Good would continue to thrive in the universe.

They were robbed by humans some time ago, and later, a group of alien pirates came from nowhere and robbed their supplies crazily. Fortunately, they learned to resist this kind of plunder.

Go ahead and rob us. We won’t mine these resources anymore. You can rob them as much as you want. It’s your ability if you can rob them.

Sure enough, several more waves of pirates came later. After passing through their world, they found that there was nothing to steal, so they ran away cursing. Even the Tau Empire's air defenses didn't sound. If there was nothing to steal, why did they come here?
And the mine is right over there, you can go and mine it yourself, we will never stop you.

In their view.

It is absolutely impossible for humans to build factories on these planets because it is simply not cost-effective.

Karamat is too far away from this world. They have to protect their factories from being occupied by the Tau Empire and transport all the resources on land. Maybe they have just finished mining here, and the land over there is taken back by the Tau Empire.

After all, the support from the Tau Empire is faster than that from humans.

I'm right at my doorstep, and you're mining my mines?

"Humans are coming again."

"Humph, still coming? Let them rob us. We won't mine or extract resources. We'll just hide."

This is a defensive strategy of the Tau Empire against humanity.

After all, they are at a great disadvantage when fighting against humans.

As long as humans feel that they cannot make any profit, they will never come back.

It’s only for human’s world-class enterprises and private enterprises.

It's great that you don't resist.

The original intention was to develop trade, and it was necessary to relocate a large number of heavily polluting and toxic waste gas factories. In the Gamma world, the environment had to be significantly transformed for the sake of residents' lives.

But now, you can engage in free trade without even firing any cannons.

You're welcome.
In the sky, the combined factory from the enterprise landed again.

These are combined factories.

Like a huge ball of dark rain, it fell from the sky.

From the eastern star region, on the edge of the world of Reiqi, under the cover of the fire warriors, they looked up at the "black rain" that was continuously falling from the sky. The starship sailing in the sky was now splashing this rain and planting it on this planet.

"My Lord? What are they doing?"

"."

The Fire Warriors didn't understand what the other party was doing, but they knew that they had never seen this scene in the previous times. Are they going to wipe us out?

"Everyone, be careful and hide. Don't let them find you!"

These falling "black rains" fell heavily under the influence of the anti-gravity engine compartment, shaking the ground as if there was an earthquake. Then, a large number of fragments stretched out their bodies from the bloated iron block, connecting and cooperating with each other, fitting themselves and other pieces of the puzzle together precisely, as if constructing some kind of steel-like life.

The massive steel creature before him, having absorbed enough puzzle pieces, seemed to be covered in layers of black scales. A sharp, steely sound echoed, like the first heartbeat of the steel behemoth after awakening. It opened its eyes, and the exhaust vents, like its eyes, emitted a gloomy red light like a crimson star. Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
The ground began to shake violently.

Behind it, monster factories are rising from the ground.

They are like a tribe, one after another, and they have set their sights on this world.

Soon, they discovered with horror that these steel monsters were sucking liquid called metal and devouring food called minerals. Underground, metal monsters like giant worms were constantly cutting the lifeblood of the planet.

They devour all the resources in sight and inject them into their abdomens.

Soon, a thick black fog was swallowing up their heads. Fierceness and fire were forged in their bodies. The fog enveloped them, and their breath blocked out the sky and the sun. They were devouring this world.

They are as hungry as wild beasts and are too greedy to miss any place where they can gnaw.

when!when!when!
Distant and dull sounds rang out continuously.

Mountains in the distance.

In their eyes, they were sinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Just like a beautiful fruit, when it is crawling with termites, no matter how beautiful the outside is, the inside has already been eaten away and cannot be seen anymore. The same is true for global and private enterprises. For a planet that does not need to be governed at all, they can use their utmost strength to squeeze out all its value. As for whether this planet is still useful in the end, it is meaningless.

After all, the Gamma World doesn't need slaves for the time being.

"It's really raining black water."

The humanoid creatures that look like yellow frogs are the nobles of this world. Although they like rainy weather, they still feel uncomfortable when the black rain touches them.

“What are humans doing?”

"Why aren't they leaving yet? Didn't they agree that they would leave as long as they couldn't seize those ships?"

"The mountain collapsed, and I saw a deep pit. They dug a very deep hole underground. Are they going to hollow out the entire underground?"

"I didn't see a single human, just those steel monsters."

"Humans haven't contacted us. Perhaps they think we're no longer worth contacting."

Some nobles who possessed a certain degree of wisdom seemed to understand something when they saw the huge buildings left by these human ships, the large pits everywhere on the ground, and no humans appeared.

Loot them at the beginning, and run away after a few robs. At least they are worth being robbed.

Under the Tau Empire, abandon the 'looted value'

Therefore, they who are not "worthy of being robbed" do not even have the chance to become slaves of humans. Humans no longer intend to use such troublesome means to force them to work. They use more efficient steel behemoths. This world will be hollowed out by humans' steel behemoths, and this hollowed-out world will completely lose its value.

Their world is indeed over.

However, there is still a criminal company among them that is willing to give them some chance to survive, provided that they are willing to surrender.

"Sign the contract and you can find another place to survive. This is your last chance."

A place of enlightenment on the fringes of the Tau Empire.

Still monitoring each world.

After they received the news that the Rutyi galaxy in the Rechi world was plundered by humans, they just observed and did not send any soldiers there. In their opinion, humans would just plunder once and leave when they found that they could not steal anything.

but.

This time they seem to have misjudged.

It seemed as if an endless stream of ships from the human empire were appearing above the planet.

And based on the distance between the Human Empire and the Rutii galaxy, if merchant ships can appear with such frequency, humans must have at least millions of ships traveling back and forth to this planet non-stop.

But is this possible?

The last time they fought, the humans had barely managed to gather half a ship.

In the end, victory was achieved through boarding battle.

"They didn't leave. They headed towards the second planet in the Lutti system. They seemed to be replicating their actions in the Lutti system."

"How did they do it?"

Such a frequency of transportation is equivalent to millions of ships continuously shuttling back and forth between the Gamma World and their planet, and transporting all the resources on an entire planet to their home planet.

Then how terrifying will the growth rate of resources on their home planet be?
It’s just that they don’t know the forging capabilities of the Gamma World, but the resource transportation capabilities of the Gamma World are enough to scare them.
