As the sacred home of mankind, the traumatized Terra showed its tenacity after the war.
Even after suffering an invasion by the demons of Khorne, Terra quickly recovered from the doomsday ruins.
A large number of new buildings were rebuilt thanks to the efforts of the hardworking people of Terra.
Everything looks brand new and there are new changes every day.
The new Terran political system, headed by Guilliman, is functioning as originally envisioned.
As the home world of mankind, Terra's resources are extremely abundant.
After all, he has the support of the entire empire.
Nowadays, it is combined with Guilliman’s various new technologies.
Terra has undergone tremendous changes today.
The ocean, which had disappeared for more than 10,000 years, reappeared on the earth.
Various types of civil aircraft quickly became popular in every household, greatly improving people's sense of happiness.
Various magnificent buildings and natural ecosystems appeared on the land of Terra with the assistance of the mechanical priests.
Large tracts of forest cover the desolate desert land.
The Imperial Regent issued an order requiring Mars to begin developing environmental transformation machinery for the human world in order to comprehensively improve the living environment of humans in the galaxy.
The strong iron fist of various departments and the various factory emission standards launched by the Chamber of Commerce have effectively curbed those high-consumption and low-efficiency factories and broken the old interest chain.
Environmental protection legislation was also passed under Guilliman's authorization.
These efforts have greatly improved the harsh climate and living environment for mankind.
You know, in the past, the land of Terra was almost soaked in toxins.
No plants can survive in the wild, and the whole world is becoming a kind of desert.
The air of the entire planet had a foul, noxious smell.
People can only live in cities.
The gray sky was purified for the first time, revealing a deep blue sky, as if it had been washed by water, spotless.
The sacred homeland of mankind is recovering its former beauty.
Blue sky, ocean, forest.
All kinds of nouns that had long been lost in the mouths of the Sons of Terra reappeared in their mouths.
Confidence and expectation for the future appeared on people's faces.
Across Terra, every citizen of the Empire feels full of energy, and an unprecedented bright future awaits them.
There has never been such a trend before.
After the Imperial Regent arrived, everything was rapidly getting better.
Imperial Prime Minister Penny stood on the edge of the balcony garden of the Imperial Senate, overlooking the vast city.
Huge buildings of magnificent scale emerged in the city of Terra like mushrooms after a rain.
Green gardens dot the landscape, and the most eye-catching thing is the anti-gravity cars flying around, like schools of fish swimming among the plants on the sea floor.
The sky became clear again, and as Terra rotated, the sun gradually rose from the east, shining brightly with golden sunlight into the magnificent and huge urban clusters, which were divided into beams of light by the tall cities, coating the traffic in the sky with a layer of golden light.
Faced with such a beautiful new world, Penny, as the Prime Minister of the Empire, is always secretly excited, and sometimes even wants to cry.
The feeling of rebirth permeated every corner of Terra.
Compared with the beautiful present, the past was truly an unspeakable terrible nightmare.
If Tirian hadn't left, seeing what's happening now, he would probably be so excited that he would shout.
Today's Terra is the idealized human society he once pursued.
Humanity is getting back on track, and they are about to once again become the most powerful force in the galaxy.
The basic education project in Terra has also begun.
Of course, this kind of education did little to weaken the Emperor's faith.
From the moment those children entered school, they learned the Emperor's thoughts and various theories in religious classes.
They are trained to be firm believers with independent thinking ability.
What they have to do is to complete the rise of mankind and the great rejuvenation of the empire, so that mankind can once again move towards glory.
The barbarity and vulgarity of the state religion were weakened and suppressed by the Primarch through many means.
From a rational point of view, religion has many disadvantages.
But it is not without its advantages.
It can strengthen people's beliefs and enhance a group's sense of identity and belonging.
Let the people of the Empire unite closely under the banner of the Emperor, declare war on demons, aliens and traitors, and avoid meaningless internal friction.
It penetrated into the hearts of the people of the empire in another way.
An era where faith, science and rationality coexist.
This is the darkest era for mankind. The emergence of the Great Rift has allowed traitors and demons to devour mankind's living space with impunity.
But this is also the best era for mankind, as they have regained the leadership of an emperor's own son.
No, Penny apologized for her mistake.
Now there are no longer one emperor's biological son, but two emperor's biological sons.
The latest news: The genetic father of the Dark Angels, Lionel the Lion, has also returned.
According to the Imperial Regent Guilliman, the Primarch of the Dark Angels is already leading an army to fight against those hateful enemies, and I believe that there will be relevant news of victory soon.
For the empire that is now thriving.
The return of a Primarch is undoubtedly a powerful sedative that can inspire the world and strengthen the cohesion of the Empire.
Humanity regained the protection of these demigods of war and once again embraced the glory of technology and rationality.
The old era came to an end with the dissolution of the High Lords' Council.
For ten thousand years, the Empire was ruled by a single body of twelve men and women.
They are charged with making all the major decisions of the nation and guiding humanity through its many tests and challenges.
There is no force more powerful in Terra's politics than the Council of High Lords.
High Lords from all factions take on the responsibility of running the Imperium, administering the state and acting as go-betweens between the people and the Emperor.
They use speculative scholarship, prayer, or tarot cards to guess the Emperor's will and convey it to the world.
Before the Primarch revived, no one dared to challenge any decision made by the High Lords' Council.
For this reason, their position is firmly established.
Everyone would think that this system would continue to work forever.
However, no one expected that one day the High Lords' Council would be abolished.
This system that has lasted for thousands of years will be completely shattered by its creator.
After Guilliman revived, he took away all power.
Became the Imperial Regent.
Whether it is government affairs, military affairs, or even technology, he has a firm grasp on them.
It was well known to many that Guilliman had not formally declared himself Emperor of the Empire.
But everyone knows that Guilliman is already the de facto Lord of Humanity.
He has a firm control over the military, technology, politics, and public opinion.
No one can shake his position.
Even a resurrected loyal Primarch would find it difficult to overthrow Guilliman's rule.
Penny doesn't think there's anything wrong with this.
Judging from the developments on Terra, having Guilliman become the new Lord of Mankind is a good thing for all of humanity.
The death of Tyrian made everyone see clearly how horrible the corruption of the Terra government is.
Those high lords had long forgotten their duties and were only concerned with enjoying their own power, ignoring the interests of the lower classes.
Yin Ertu, headed by the Ministry of the Interior, was even more insane.
As the most powerful and longest-serving senator in the Council of High Lords, he insisted that the various basic systems left by the Emperor and Guilliman must not be changed in order to safeguard his own interests.
The conservatives led by him opposed any form of reform.
Every time facing the reformers, the conservatives led by Yin Ertu claimed that through a profound understanding of history, law and theology, the Imperial Constitution had been proven to be the most perfect legal system for mankind.
Any attempt to change the Imperial Constitution is a betrayal to the Emperor himself. It is also a betrayal to the many Primarchs of the Empire.
Using the Primarch and the Emperor as shields, every reformist movement would be crushed to pieces by this issue.
In the past years, no one dared to say that the system designed by the Primarch and the Emperor was no longer in line with the development of the Empire.
Such words could easily be regarded by the State Religion as blasphemy and betrayal against the Primarch and the Emperor.
If you dare to make such remarks, the ending is usually not good.
For this reason, many reform attempts by Tirian and others were ultimately aborted due to obstruction by Yinertu and others.
The Conservative coalition would never agree to even tentative reforms.
However, when Guilliman awoke, the situation changed dramatically.
Guilliman, who created the High Lords Council system, personally reformed the Empire's political system.
The theory of the primarch and the sacredness of the Emperor that Inrtu and others insisted on was shattered by Guilliman.
Those powerful people who were afraid of losing their power planned the Beta-Garmon Campaign.
Unfortunately, their attempts to retain power were ultimately thwarted by the Primarch.
Most of these High Lords also paid the price for the death of Imperial Chancellor Tyrion.
The highly centralized Empire has been twisted into a rope centered on Guilliman, working together for a common goal.
That is the rise of humanity, and the great renaissance of empire.
Every battle that takes place in the empire is transferred to all citizens of the empire through invisible systems such as administration and economy.
Let them clearly realize that the entire empire is one, and they have no way to stay out of any war.
What Penny has to do is to cooperate with Guilliman, help him coordinate various affairs of the empire, and effectively promote his orders and reforms.
This is not an easy task.
The empire is able to sail in the sea of stars and is a true interstellar civilization.
However, the civilian technology of the Human Empire is a mess, and it is impossible to effectively supervise the people of the Empire.
In addition to civilian technology, the empire's illiteracy rate is also extremely terrible.
Even on Terra, 80% of the people have not received a systematic education, and their knowledge of the outside world is limited to the hive cities. They have no idea of the vastness of the human empire.
Many worlds are still at the level of tribal and feudal civilization.
The Terra of the past had no intention of improving their technology or civilization.
On those planets, the only role of the Empire's citizens is to provide cheap, exploitable labor for the Empire.
Of course, this kind of thing is not allowed to happen in Guilliman's reforms.
He required that every planet must have a basic understanding of the galaxy and understand what kind of existence the human empire is.
The illiteracy rate on each planet must be zero, and the soldiers must master the use of the most basic electronic instruments, understand their rights and obligations, and be prepared to fight for the empire.
The old situation of the human empire can be said to be rotten to the extreme.
You can imagine how much pressure it is to promote a policy and make all the worlds dance to the Primarch's tune.
Even now, the Imperial Regent has relaxed many technological restrictions.
Shen Nao Project, Citizen Data Chip, Low-end Intelligent Machinery Applications, etc.
But Penny still had no confidence. According to her speculation, it would take at least three hundred years to completely promote the Primarch reforms within the Empire and achieve the corresponding goals.
It would take such a long time to push the Primarch's reforms to every planet, allowing the ignorant citizens of the Empire in countless worlds to complete their transformation, reducing illiteracy rates and improving local technological levels.
Let every citizen of the empire know what a great country their human empire is.
This is a very difficult and troublesome project.
Once accomplished, it will be unprecedented and unparalleled, and the glory of mankind must continue.
Among the many rising races in the galaxy, humans are neither the smartest nor the most talented.
But humans are a very special race.
They are more united than the Eldar, tougher than the Tau, and more tolerant of pain than the Necrons.
Not every aspect is outstanding, but no aspect is a shortcoming either.
In a huge society, mediocrity is precisely the source of human power and the foundation of their strength.
Only mediocrity can bring unity.
Only unity is strength.
This power is the power that can destroy everything.
Human beings have never sought a hero to determine the future.
Even the Imperial Regent has repeatedly stressed that lone wolfism and heroism will never be the main theme of humanity.
The sentence he said most often about his achievements was, "Those credits belong to those who struggled, not me. I am great because of the world, not because I saved the world."
"We will succeed." Penny said silently in her heart as she looked at the traffic in the city and the bustling workers.
The thought of Guilliman filled her with hope for the future of humanity.
The human empire will surely flourish in his hands.
He will unite all of humanity and challenge all evil beings that try to obstruct humanity.
Humanity will triumph.
The empire will surely flourish.
... ... ... ... ... ... ..
, ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Subspace.
After separating from the Stone Fortress, the fleet led by the Macragge's Glory is still sailing towards Terra.
While sailing, Guilliman summoned the Archmagos Cawl to prepare for his strategic transition plan.
A cunning man has three burrows.
The empire must be prepared for both head-on confrontation and strategic shift.
If you keep the land but lose the people, both the people and the land will be lost.
If the land is lost but the people are saved, both the people and the land will be gained.
The war against Chaos is destined to be an unimaginably protracted war.
Any kind of radicalism is unacceptable.
Xiang Yu inflicted dozens of defeats on Liu Bang, but Liu Bang was able to make a comeback every time.
But once Xiang Yu suffered a defeat, he was finished.
What’s the use of Xiang Yu’s great fighting skills
War is about logistics, supplies, and persistence.
He's just a small jerk who can fight, not a big deal.
With the hissing sound of hydraulic devices, the heavy metal door of the strategic room opened.
The Great Sage of Domination walked in from outside and bowed respectfully.
"If you need anything, please come to me, Lord Regent."
"There is something I need you to do." Guilliman said, sitting in his chair.
"What is it?"
"I want you to form a team and find a way to go to another universe."
