Salute To The General

When Penny heard Chance's remark, a sense of pride rose within her, and she was proud of her husband.

As she promptly recalled that Nathan was presently leading the Southern Fleet against the country's enemies on national waters, worry inexorably stained her face.

At that moment, she only hoped that he would return safety as soon as possible.

On that very day, Eurasia's President, Garrett, gave a speech to the whole world.

He named Ariarica directly, warning them not to challenge Eurasia's determination to defend its homeland, and emphasized that Ariarica was playing with fire.

At almost the same time, Gammon from Remdik also held a press conference for the very first time in Remdik.

His motive in doing so was the same as Garrett-warning the countries allying themselves with Ariarica not to play with fire, lest they burned themselves.

Moreover, his words were even harsher and more biting. He warned

bluntly, "Don't play with fire, Ariarica and lackeys! Do you know that you're attempting to start another world war? There's no victor in war! And even if there is, it won't be you!"

Garrett and Gammon's speeches that were delivered at the same time were then broadcasted all over the world on that very day.

Although neither Eurasia nor Remdik mentioned a military alliance, the fact that both countries joined hands to conduct a military exercise and made a targeted speech at the same time made it clear that they were very close and stood together.

Under the overwhelming pressure, Ariarica finally ordered Max to lead the carrier battle group away.

Max, who received that order from the higher-ups, was infuriated.

He was planning to sabotage Eurasia this time, but he didn't manage to flex his muscles before being forced to return to his country with his tail tucked between his legs.

Therefore, resentment blazed within him.

He was like a gambler who lost his money and was livid; hence wanting to steal the ashtray on the table as a boon to vent his anger.

Thus, when he was instructed to lead the carrier battle group away, he phoned Jessica, who was in Eurasia.

When Jessica received his call, she hurriedly asked respectfully, "What can I do for you, esteemed Admiral Max?"

"The higher-ups have already ordered you to lead your team back, right?" Max remarked.

"Yes. The higher-ups said that we must compromise due to the circumstances. I've already signed the agreement with Eurasia and are planning to bring the team back," Jessica answered.

"Before you do so, complete a task first," Max urged.

Stunned, Jessica inquired, "What task?"

While smoking a cigar, Max held theNôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

phone in one hand and a new

document in the other. In a placid voice, he started, "Two days ago, Eurasia's Chief Military Governor visited Remdik secretly and revealed his true countenance before a group of Remdik's high-ranking officials. The spies we stationed in Remdik also glimpsed this utterly mysterious Chief Military Governor's countenance. It turned out that Eurasia's Chief Military Governor, who had always been mysterious, is the former God of War in the North, Nathan Cross."

“What? Nathan Cross is Eurasia's Chief Military Governor?" Jessica exclaimed the moment she heard that.

"Yes. I've long since known that he's

our greatest enemy. However, I thought that he was no longer being regarded highly and was idling at home without bothering about military matters anymore. I never expected it all to be a mere fagade and that he was actually acting as Eurasia's Chief Military Governor in secret, commanding the entire armed forces of Eurasia," Max explained.

By then, Jessica finally snapped out of the shock and commented slowly, "No wonder Cross Group's attitude is so domineering, not at all afraid of our sanction. Also, Penny was very forceful when faced with my subordinate, Jemma, daring to pick on her. It turns out that her husband, Nathan, is Eurasia's Chief Military Governor!"

“Nathan is Eurasia's Chief Military Governor, so all military regions are under his jurisdiction. He has already surpassed President Woods of Eurasia and become a great threat to Ariarica,” Max expounded.
