Salute To The General



"What? Sheldon has been found out and captured by Eurasia? No. That's not possible. He's a first-generation super-soldier and is always on high alert. He could have escaped no matter what. Moreover, no one stands a chance against him except the elites in Eurasia."

Inside an aircraft carrier, Max, the five-star General of Ariarica, was fuming in anger when he heard about Sheldon's captivity. He refused to believe what had happened since he had personally trained Sheldon.

His vice general, Taylor, replied grimly, "It's true, Admiral Max. Moreover, the reason that led to him getting caught is absurd."

Taylor told Max how Sheldon's lover, Kendall, had tried to spite Nathan and the reason that led to Sheldon getting exposed. He told Max that Nathan even helped the Secret Service to capture Sheldon.

Max flew into a howling rage after hearing the full story.

“Nathan again? Why is it always that b*stard? I'm going to destroy him personally one day." "I heard that Nathan has already retired and can no longer command the army. It's not worth our time and effort to deal with him," Taylor advised.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Admiral Max, let's focus on persuading our neighboring countries to team up and attack Eurasia instead. Let's turn the Eight-Nation Alliance to nine, ten, or even a hundred-Nation Alliance. Taking Eurasia down will be a piece of cake if everyone can work together as one."

"You don't understand. Nathan might have retired, but he's even scarier than the mysterious Chief Military Governor of Eurasia. Moreover, Eurasia will allow Nathan to return to the army once they go into battle. He will still be our number one enemy once he returns. We have to get rid of him sooner or later."

Max puffed on his cigar and continued, "But you're right. We need to focus on expanding our forces to take Eurasia down. Our goal is to turn the Eight-Nation Alliance to nine or even a hundred-nation alliance. By the way, how is Volk coming along? We've been trying to persuade them to join us. Did Isaiah not say anything?"

Taylor replied, "Volk is indecisive on whether they want to join the alliance or not. Isaiah is provoking the West in Eurasia while telling us he's still thinking about it. He's a sly fox."

"He wants to play both sides and reap the biggest benefit. He just wants to scare Eurasia with the power of the alliance. He's not actually planning to join at all. But no rush. I will contact the representatives of the other seven countries sometime soon and meet up with Isaiah once again. I will force him to make a decision then. Either they become one of us and make Eurasia their enemy, or they become our enemy."

Taylor smiled. "Volk will get our full support to go up against Eurasia if they join us. If they don't, they will become Eurasia's enemy and offend all seven countries. I think Isaiah knows what to do if he's smart."

Meanwhile, in Channing, south of Eurasia, Nathan was on the phone with Thomas who had joined the West Army.

"Thomas, how are you coping in the West Army?"

"I'm fine, General. It's all thanks to you that Chief Ziegler took me under his wing."

"That's good. You can learn a lot under his wing," Nathan replied.

"How is the situation in the West Army?"

"They canceled everyone's leaves, including the logistics department," Thomas spoke in a low voice.

"The West Army is preparing to go to war at immediate notice these days. They've asked us to gather during the middle of the night a couple of times now. The higher-ups told us it was for practice. But I heard from someone else that Chief Brown is preparing for battle with Ares Squad from Volk. Not only is he planning to take down Ares Squad commanded by Isaiah, the God of War of Volk, but also to kill Isaiah himself."

"Is this true?" Nathan's expression turned grim.

"My group leader said so himself. However, he regretted the moment the words slipped from his mouth. He ordered us not to tell anyone about it."

"Do you know when Lucas is planning to strike?"

"I don't, but my group leader said the next emergency assembly practice will be tomorrow night. Chief Ziegler might turn tomorrow's practice into a full-blown war."

"Okay, got it. Keep your eyes peeled and report to me if anything happens."

"Yes, Sir!"
