Just as the tension between Forbes General and Vice Admiral Barbossa reached its peak, Governor Marcus's actions suddenly drew everyone's attention back to him. He lightly tapped the table, a simple yet decisive gesture that immediately froze the air in the entire briefing room, with all eyes focused on him.
Governor Marcus's voice was calm yet powerful, with every word exuding unquestionable authority: "Forbes... How many times have I told you, being a general is not just about going into battle... Strategic thinking is the most important. You're already fifty, yet you still act recklessly as before." His words not only contained criticism of Forbes General's behavior, but also revealed a deep understanding of his personality and long-standing patience.
Forbes General chose to remain silent in the face of the governor's frankness. His lips were tightly pressed together, and although he did not speak, the subtle changes in his expression revealed that Governor Marcus's words had touched his pride. In that moment, Forbes General seemed to realize that his behavior might indeed have been too impulsive, and that he needed to reconsider his attitude and his responsibilities as a general.
Governor Marcus's words were not just a reminder to Forbes General, but also a wake-up call to everyone present. When facing a common threat, individual emotions and actions should be subordinate to the overall interests and the consideration of the bigger picture. This small incident undoubtedly deepened everyone's understanding of the severity of the current situation and strengthened the respect for Governor Marcus's leadership.
Governor Marcus, after ensuring that the tense atmosphere was appropriately relieved, quickly redirected the focus of the meeting back to the crisis at hand. Pointing at the briefing screen, he firmly stated, "Now... as Vice Admiral Barbossa mentioned, we must identify the enemy's position and numbers as soon as possible." His voice was loud and determined, showing his serious attitude towards resolving the current issue.
Subsequently, Governor Marcus turned to Forbes General and continued his instructions, "Furthermore... Forbes General, I also need you to mobilize all the warships on the planet as soon as possible and establish a defensive line in our territory in space." This command not only served as a compensation for Forbes General's previous actions but also demonstrated trust in his abilities and a reappointment to a crucial role, assigning him the important task of defending the planet.
Vice Admiral Barbossa seemed somewhat puzzled after hearing this instruction, and he asked with a hint of doubt, "Why? According to the reports, the Skaven's technological capabilities are not supposed to reach outer space, right?" His question directly challenged the rationality of the Governor's decision, especially since the current intelligence suggested that the Skaven did not seem to possess the technology for space warfare.
A slight smile appeared on Governor Marcus's face as he spoke in a relaxed tone that almost made people forget the looming threat in front of them, "I don't think the Skaven will be our biggest threat. The Emperor's authority... could arrive here at any time for the judgment of chaos. I believe everyone is well aware of that, right?" His words carried deep meaning, not only reminding those present of the complexity of the current situation, but also hinting at a possible greater threat - the Emperor's intervention.
Vice Admiral Barbossa was visibly shocked upon hearing this, and his reaction was almost instinctive. He immediately stood up, responding with a tone of disbelief and even panic, "Governor... You! You don't... want us to go to war with the Emperor, do you?" His voice carried clear concern and panic, not only as a direct response to the information revealed by Marcus, but also as an instinctive fear of the extreme scenario of confrontation with the Emperor.
Facing Vice Admiral Barbossa's reaction, Governor Marcus smiled slightly, seemingly unconcerned by his panic. He calmly explained, "No, Barbarossa, I do not want us to go to war with the Emperor. But we must be prepared to face all possible situations. Whether the Emperor intervenes as an ally or in any other form, we must be ready to respond." Marcus's words not only calmed Barbarossa's worries but also further clarified his strategic vision and leadership wisdom, emphasizing the need to remain calm and consider all aspects in preparing for the safety of the planet Yakhanix in this turbulent and uncertain era.
Vice Admiral Barbossa listened to Governor Marcus's words, and his expression became even more serious. There was a deep sense of worry and responsibility between his brows. After a brief moment of silence and contemplation, he finally nodded and replied with a firm and serious attitude, "I... I understand. I will have the warships launched early, and we will also deploy array defenses for the space battle... Everything will be focused on the people of Yakhanix." His words were full of determination, showing that he had fully accepted the governor's instructions and was ready to take immediate action to contribute to the protection of Yakhanix and its people.
Upon hearing Vice Admiral Barbossa's response, Governor Marcus looked satisfied, nodded, and his eyes were full of affirmation and trust towards Barbarossa. Then, the governor waved his hand, indicating that Barbarossa could leave. This gesture by Marcus not only recognized the importance of Barbarossa's mission but also implied that the upcoming discussion or decision might not be related to the specific deployment of the air force, requiring him to focus on preparing for the upcoming space battle defense work.
Vice Admiral Barbossa respectfully nodded after receiving the Governor's hint, then turned and left the conference room. His firm and decisive figure showed his determination. At this moment, he was filled with a sense of great responsibility, knowing that he must now give his all to ensure the impregnable security defense of Yakhanix star.
