Chapter 22 Commitment
"Deprivation of military status, expulsion from the dragoon brigade. These words were like hammers falling on the people, and their faces turned extremely pale, and almost at the same moment, all of them fell to their knees and begged for mercy.
For a soldier, being expelled from the military is definitely a more serious thing than ruining their lives, in this era of enthusiasm for joining the army, once expelled, it will be an indelible stain in life, no matter where they go, they will be looked down upon, they dare not think, their families, relatives and friends after learning the news, and then look at their eyes.
However, Shaw Senard didn't pay attention to these four people at all, but pointed to Andre and Anda, who had first arranged to check the entrances and exits. "Your mission is to return to your study and work with the rest of the people to protect the Overseer's Sword after you've surveyed the entrances and exits. But you didn't, but instead took part in their nonsense, and almost lost the Overseer's sword, and the soldiers who did not obey the orders did not deserve to remain in the army, and like them, they were dismissed!"
Hearing this, An and Da's faces also changed greatly, and they knelt on the ground suddenly, and said hurriedly: "General, when we were on our way back, we saw that everyone was besieging Condra, and we just mistakenly thought that Condra was the thief who stole it, so we chose to work together with everyone to capture him first, so as not to escape the thief." β
Shaw Sennard looked at him coldly and said, "Can't the four of them catch Kondla? Even if the two of you were involved, it wouldn't increase Kondla's capture speed much. And your mission is to protect the Overseer's Sword, not the thief, and even if you want to help others capture Kondra, you should send someone back to find out about the Overseer's Sword. Because of personal emotional factors, he lost his calm judgment and forgot his duties, this kind of person is not worthy of being a soldier at all!"
"General, give us one more chance, there will never be a next time. Several people knelt down and pleaded in unison.
However, everyone's plea did not make Shaw Senald's face soften even a little, "You are all the elite of the Dragon Knight Legion, and for you, the failure of the mission is likely to be the end of your life." In the first class I came here, I taught you that no matter what happens, you are not allowed to let the mission target out of your sight, and you are emotional, so that the Overseer's Sword is almost lost, and I dare to dismiss you? Could it be that you have only learned to justify your mistakes and beg for mercy in your three months of study here!"
When several people heard this, their faces were burning with guilt, and they lowered their heads and did not explain their faults.
At this point, Shorenard turned his gaze to the scarred Kondla. Even the most calm of the crowd, Condra couldn't help but shudder, the six people in front of him were all expelled, and he himself could be said to be the fuse of the whole thing, which made him even more afraid of Shawsonard's disposition.
"You didn't make any mistakes and you saved yourself. However, you didn't solve it calmly at that time, and gave the other party an opportunity to take advantage of it, fined three years of military salary, and went back to think about how to solve this kind of thing again. As soon as these words came out, not only others were shocked, but even Condra himself was stunned for a moment, wondering if he had heard it wrong.
"That's it, such a light punishment?" Condra's heart was full of doubts, three years' military salary was not painful for him at all, he didn't need money in the army, and his family background was not bad, and he didn't need the little military salary he earned. Although he felt very lucky, Condela didn't dare to ask more, for fear that the general would change his mind after asking too much, and in the face of Shawsonard, Condela also avoided it, so he hurriedly retreated. And just as Condra reached the door, Shawsonard's voice came again.
"If you treat them as your robes, don't hide too many secrets. β
Hearing this sentence in Condra's ears shook his body, and he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth hard...
Shaw Senard then looked at Ali and Qi.
The faces of the two of them were ugly, as if they were waiting for death to pronounce a sentence on them.
"You are not responsible for this matter...", both of them were overjoyed and relieved at the same time, but they were interrupted by Shawsonard's voice as soon as they were halfway through their breath
"But!"
Ah Li, Ah Qi's nerves immediately tensed, and the fool also knew that the word "but" would definitely not be a good thing.
"However, as the elite of the Dragoons, you were easily stunned by the other side, causing your team to almost split due to the two of you, and even more so to injure your companions, and the Sword of the Overseer was almost lost. Since you two are not as good as others, then starting tomorrow, add four hours of combat training every day for three years!"
Hearing Xiao Senald's words, the faces of the two of them were not to mention how ugly they were, the daily training of the Dragoons was much more than that of ordinary armies, and the rest of the time was about ten hours after a day of training, and now with four hours of combat training, it means that they only have six hours a day for things such as eating and sleeping, so you can imagine how hard it will be in the next three years. However, what made them slightly relieved was that they had not been deprived of their military status, and this punishment was much better than that of the six people.
Next, the punishment was Shaw Senald's adjutant, although he was not dismissed from the army, but he was also stripped of the position of adjutant, and the adjutant did not intercede like the others, and accepted the general's disposal in silence.
Eventually, Shawsonard's eyes finally fell on Andre.
Andre's body trembled, and he said in his heart, "It's finally my turn..."
Shawsenard looked at Andre and his gaze stayed for a moment, but this short moment was extraordinarily long for Andre, and the feeling of sitting on pins and needles made him want to avoid Shawsonard's gaze.
"As a soldier, you have to dare to face up to anyone. Shosenard spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes, General!" Andre straightened his back and looked back at Shosenald.
Shaw Senrad bowed slightly, "You didn't leave your post without permission, which is good, but..."
The word "but" again, Andrei also "chuckled" in his heart, because no one knew better than him, in fact, he had made a serious mistake in the protection mission just now.
Xiao Sennard said slowly: "But as a captain, others can not understand the ability of subordinates, but you can't, as long as you understand the ability of each subordinate, you can reasonably arrange and control, this is one of your faults." β
Speaking of this, Shawsonard's gaze suddenly became sharp, so sharp that Andre couldn't help but look away from him again, not daring to look at him.
"Second, you didn't recall the rest of the thieves as soon as you discovered them. With your strength, it's never a problem to make a big noise. Other people will naturally know that something is going on here, and misunderstandings will be solved, but you don't, so it's all because of your blind self-confidence!
Andrei's face turned white with a "swish", which was the most fatal mistake he had made, but Shawsonard's words did not stop there.
"In this mission, you did not disobey the military order, so I have no right to fire you, but as their captain, you did not coordinate your team members well, which led to the misunderstanding expanding. And because of your blind self-confidence, the Overseer's Sword almost fell, so you are not fit to lead a team, to be their core, and you are not worthy to be a soldier! β
"Yes, General. Andrei lowered his head, his punishment was actually light, although he was assigned to a handyman, as long as he was not expelled from the army, he still had a chance to become a regular. AndrΓ© is indeed as Shawsonard said, but it is not all self-confidence, but more selfishness. The opponent is Starmark, and he wants to win him once too much.
Andre glanced at the others, compared to the pale faces of Ali and Ah Qi, the other six were as dead as ashes, and the deprivation of military status was like depriving them of their beliefs and their lives. In those empty eyes, there is no future in sight.
Gritting his teeth, Andre suddenly stepped forward, came to the side of the six, knelt down on one knee towards Shawsonard and said: "General, you always teach us that the love of robes is like siblings, everyone just thinks that Ali has an accident, and mistakenly thinks that the thief has been locked, so they will choose to pursue." And as the general said, it was my arrogance that did not recall everyone at the first time, which led to the almost loss of the Overseer's Sword, you once taught us that whether a battle can be won or not, the warrior is one thing, but the command and decision of the general is the most critical aspect, victory is the merit of the soldier, and defeat is the responsibility of the general. So these responsibilities should be borne by me. β
Hearing Andre's words, the bodies of the six people trembled, and even Ah Li and Ah Qi looked at Andre in surprise, no one thought that Andre would resist the mistake by himself. If Andre resists, then they do have the possibility of keeping their military status, but in that case, Andrei will definitely face more than just being expelled from the military.
Shaw Sennard tilted his head slightly, looked at Andre, and said coldly, "Do you know that if the Overseer's Sword is almost lost because of your own fault, you will be sentenced to death. β
When Andre heard this, he was silent for a long time before he whispered, "I know." β
After saying that, Andrei looked sideways at the starmark that had fallen to the ground and was also looking at himself. At this time, Starmark's body was no longer spasmodic, and he looked at Andre with a gaze full of incomprehension.
With a somewhat bleak smile, Andre looked at the starmark, and for some reason, when he decided to take it all on, he felt a sense of relief.
