Warhammer 40: Doom

Chapter 150 Sharpening the Blade Expedition
Doom casually brushed away the holographic image, and he instructed the Doom Slayer to hone his combat skills, analyze his inner self, and tame his rage.

In the future, they will need to complete the Command course; every Destroyer must become a war all-rounder.

He tapped the desktop again, opened the Nur Star Armaments Summary, and summarized the achievements of the past thirty years.

With a steady recovery in population and abundant resources over the past thirty years, the number of Nur stars has finally reached hundreds of billions—of which children and teenagers account for 80%.

This is unavoidable, given the small population size and the long human pregnancy and childbirth cycle.

While technology can still maintain its current level, Musala's team of stone men continues to explore ancient technologies and establish the existing scientific system.

Within the War Academy, drawing upon the "War Code" written by Doom, a million mortal auxiliary soldiers have been trained.

The auxiliary troops receive elite education, are proficient in various war commands, have clear and distinct war thinking, and are equipped with ordinary human power armor and advanced weapons.

This million-strong army, working in conjunction with the Night Watchers, is under the command of the Destroyer.

The three levels are clearly defined, with high, medium, and low-level units combined, specifically responsible for expeditions into the void.

Ordinary people assist the army, equipped with a large number of automatic soldiers, who are used as expendable resources on the battlefield.

Doom's war strategy was simple: the loss of talent was more painful than the loss of industrial products.

Training a qualified auxiliary soldier requires a mother to raise the child for ten years and a war academy to train the soldier for more than ten years.

The enemy only needs one bullet to take their lives.

Compared to human lives, the automated soldiers generated by the creation of the world seem exceptionally cost-effective.

The Nur mortal auxiliary army is more elite and less afraid of getting bogged down in a war of attrition.

In addition, Nur possessed a wide variety of war weapons.

On the home planet of Nur, the planetary defense force is even larger, numbering in the tens of millions.

The defense force has a dedicated "defense academy" with expertise in planetary defense and combat, responsible for protecting the Nur constellation.

What they learned was more about the use of defensive facilities and how to build a defensive system by combining them with a wide variety of machines.

In addition, the security forces are also quite large and are responsible for maintaining order within the planet.

With the Nur constellation now under their control, and after thousands of years of political separation, many parts of the world have been shrouded in violence for a long time. It is essential for security forces to maintain stability.

Whether it's the mortal support force, the planetary defense force, or the security forces, all are equipped with the corresponding level of power armor, and their weapons and equipment meet the requirements of their professions.

There are too many forging worlds in the Nur Star Cluster, most of which are in a confirmed active state before entering hibernation again.

The current Nur Star System is operating at full capacity, with the forging world responsible for individual weaponry operating at full capacity, ensuring that every resident is armed to the teeth.

In addition to the human forces, Nur has an Iron Man Security Team, composed of retired Iron Men who have spontaneously united to prevent highly intelligent crimes committed by androids.

They enjoy tranquility, are willing to assume corresponding responsibilities, and are willing to protect peaceful lives in special areas.

Doom quickly scanned the information, his extraordinary mind calculating and comparing it with the development strategy he had set thirty years ago.

He nodded repeatedly, truly living up to his reputation as the central law of the Ring of Nur, the digital life of the Ring of Domination.

Sofia is not the strongest in any single aspect; her strength lies in her all-around abilities.

She is a digital life form, a strategist adept at using numbers to deduce the future, and a master of coordination.

She handled resource scheduling, resource allocation, information management, and the handling of priorities with remarkable efficiency.

Under her rule, the Nur constellation flourished, and ordinary people lived in peace and contentment, enjoying a harmonious society built on order.

To prevent abuse of power for personal gain, Sophia's terminal intelligence is involved in all departments with authority.

Everything is going according to plan.

Doom's blueprint, designed thirty years ago, has now largely become a reality, in line with his strategic expectations.

The holographic data in front of him was scrolling at high speed, and even a Space Marine wouldn't be able to see it clearly, let alone an ordinary person.

Only with the original genome can the brain receive massive amounts of data and perform specific analysis.

Gradually, the data displayed on the desktop began to deviate and did not meet the initial plan.

A quick glance at Doum reveals that the navy's development cannot keep up with the rapid growth of the Nur constellation.

He remained calm and did not summon Sophia to ask her anything.

I know the reason in my heart: the construction of the navy is like this; it takes time and patience to build up.

There's an old saying in Terra: "Five years for an army, ten years for an air force, a hundred years for a navy," which illustrates the difficulty of building a navy.

Even in a single world, a qualified navy requires the joint efforts of several generations of naval personnel.

If this was the case in primitive times, the difficulty of building a navy would skyrocket on a cosmic scale.

With the help of the intelligent iron men and the advanced technology of their ships, Nur can manage some small-scale battles. However, if they encounter an equal opponent and the two fleets engage in a naval battle, Nur's chances of winning are pitifully small.

Fleet warfare is brutal, a contest of technological prowess, courage, and wisdom.

An excellent fleet commander can often lead his fleet to victory against a much stronger enemy.

The intelligent robotic robots are very powerful; after connecting to the warship's control system, they can precisely control the warship.

But this is far from enough. The overall strategic direction of fleet operations is superior to the smaller-scale technological advantages.

Nur's navy has no shortage of ships, but it lacks qualified professional naval personnel, as well as captains and fleet commanders.

This is not something that Space Marines or Nightguards can solve.

Since the Omnic Rebellion, fewer and fewer ships have been active among the Nur Stars, and their heritage has been lost for a long time.

Building a navy from scratch is not as simple as just constructing ships and stuffing them with sailors.

The navy is the branch of service that most needs to accumulate experience, as it requires corresponding experience reserves to deal with every unexpected situation.

For example, Sofia suggested whether some ship designs should be changed to adapt to the current Nur.

After careful consideration, Doom declined.

He understood a principle: some functions and designs of ancient ships may seem unreasonable, but they are the experience summarized by predecessors with their lives.

Before fully absorbing Nur's legacy and establishing the corresponding technological roadmap, try not to modify it.

The current Nur Navy is merely a firepower transport fleet carrying soldiers; it has nothing to offer.

For this reason, Doum specifically sought out the Imperial Navy to select some experienced commanders and generals to teach at the Nur Naval Academy.

He humbled himself and offered incentives to the imperial generals, persuading them to settle permanently in Nur.

Unfortunately, the imperial generals were determined to follow the emperor to the death, displaying an extremely strong personality cult.

Helpless, Doom had to find another way, but so far he has not found a good one.

As he looked at the Navy's current situation, Doom felt a surge of helplessness, and a bitter smile appeared on his once glorious and heroic face.

He observed from recent conflicts that the Night Watchers and Doomsday Warriors have completely abandoned fleet warfare.

Li Tang always boarded enemy ships during battles, rushing inside to sabotage them, demonstrating an early indication of path dependence.

Harlan was the same; ever since the Fifth Army boarded his ship, he also made extensive use of boarding tactics.

The boarding action spread like a plague through the Nur fleet, and other Night Guardian master lords followed suit.

As he browsed the data, one person caught Doom's eye.

Racing Master – Elton Senna.

This fastest man in Nur, as a royal messenger, found a new direction in the void.

The fleet he led was relatively normal, and its combat methods were also those of a standard fleet operation.

The only unusual aspect is the tactics used by the racing master. High-speed dashes are his specialty, and his combat style leans towards harassment and mobile warfare.

After some analysis, Doom concluded that Senna's tactics were quite good, utilizing his mobility advantage to harass and wear down the enemy.

"Inform Elton Sena that upon his return, he should write a war report, record tactical instructional videos, and send them to the Naval Academy."

If a command goes unanswered, Sofia has already made a note of it and will convey it at the appropriate time.

Doom quickly reviewed the main briefing data, and Sofia handled the remaining miscellaneous items very well.

He rubbed his temples with both hands, quickly processing Nur's recent situation.
The Nur constellation is currently well-ordered, with a strong and well-equipped army, but its war potential can still be further explored.

Doom's eyes narrowed – it was time for an expedition!

As the fledgling eagles' wings gradually grow strong, they can no longer enjoy the warmth of the nest and must venture into the harsh natural world to hone their skills.

Without the baptism of battle, a soldier will not transform; even the best weaponry is just for show.

Whether they spread their wings and soar through the sky, or fall from a great height and shatter into pieces, is entirely up to them.

On the brutal battlefield, the brave receive their special reward—to live.

"Sophia," Doom called out in a deep voice, placing his hands on the armrests of the throne and sitting up straight with regal majesty.

Sofia's blue figure appeared, her hand covering her chest, her slender figure kneeling on one knee. "Please give your orders."

"Raise the troops and prepare for war! Let Nur draw his sword and join the great expedition to hone his skills!"

(Brothers, I feel like I'm about to die. I'm about to have my first erection, and getting positive will ruin my condition.)
