的了解和事实是反过来的。其实是远征军为了活命而谈判，向钛帝国透露了一些泰伦的情报，让他们把全部注意力转移到泰伦身上，好让帝国舰队离开。此前为了谈判不破裂还杀了要启动灭绝令的疯狂审判官并把差点发射的旋风鱼雷丢进亚空间了。
The initial discussions had been stilted and difficult, with the tau envoy making all manner of veiled threats.Yet,Lucian had brought into play every ounce of his diplomatic skill, drawing on a lifetime’s experience of trading with all manner of societies and races the length and breadth of the Imperium. With Rayne’s blessing,Lucian had imparted something of the coming tyranid swarm, though he had twisted the truth to suggest that the tau were actually in more danger than the Imperium. It was hoped that in doing so the tau would allow the Imperium to depart unopposed while they fortified their worlds against the coming storm, and cause them to focus all of their efforts against the tyranids. Whether or not the envoy had entirely believed him, Lucian could not be sure; but regardless, face was saved and honour maintained, and the tau had not only agreed to allow the fleet to disengage, but the seeds of future cooperation had been sown.
