Hearing George's words, Wesley flew into a rage.He raised his hand to slap George, but he was facing his only son. He did not have the heart to slap him after all."You fool! She's your mother and my wife. She's our family. I can bring her in, of course. And I can bring her here legitimately! But is the woman you brought your family? She's only a prostitute! What will the soldiers think of a centurion bringing a prostitute back to the army camp?"George smacked his lips impatiently before nodding and saying, "Alright, alright, I got it. I'll send her away later. Happy?"Wesley glared at his son George and said nothing more.Just then, an errand runner came running in suddenly."Oh no. Oh no! Commander Jokerman, something's wrong!"The errand runner rushed in and startled Wanda. Wesley shouted unhappily, "What's the hurry? Stand at attention!"The errand runner quickly stood straight.Seeing him calm down, Wesley asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"The errand runner was bre
He was Dorodo's city defense army's disgrace!"Do you admit that you hid this woman in the base?"Sean asked, looking coldly at George.George felt a thump in his heart. He knew he was in trouble.He might have had room for defense if he feigned ignorance upon arrival or even denied that he knew this woman.However, he asked Sean why he captured his woman as soon as he came, admitting his relationship with her and the fact that he hid her in the barracks.In that case, what did he have to defend himself?"Since you have nothing to say, don't blame me for handling you as per the law."Sean turned to look at Zander and asked, "Zander, what's the punishment for hiding a woman in the army for fun and causing a major negative influence?""40 lashes in public and a dishonorable discharge from the army!"Zander replied loudly that the city defense soldiers heard him loud and clear.When Gregory and Anthony heard this, they knew George was going down today.The city defense soldier
Dorodo city defense army's chiliarch, Wesley, never expected himself to kneel before Sean in front of so many people.Was this the same imposing Commander Jokerman?Was this the same Commander Jokerman who terrified Dorodo's criminal underworld forces?Wesley did not look like a chiliarch in command of thousands of men. He looked like an old man who could not fight back!There was slight reluctance on the faces of the soldiers waving their fists and shouting that George should be dealt with seriously earlier.Even Gregory and Anthony had some sympathy in their eyes.The atmosphere changed.However, it did not escape Sean's keen eyes.He wanted to deal with George seriously today and banish the law-breaking rat from Dorodo's city defense army.However, he could only change his mind now."Show mercy? Wesley, do you know what a mistake your son Centurion Jokerman made?"Sean asked darkly.Wesley nodded repeatedly at that. "I know. I know what my son did was wrong, but he knows
"Centurion Jokerman, I won't give you a dishonorable discharge and let you keep your centurion post for your father's sake. But you can't get away with doing such a thing!"Sean then ordered the soldiers holding George down, "Go ahead and beat him 40 times!""Yes!"The city defense soldiers immediately replied in acknowledgment and beat George hard on the back with a long thick plank.They beat him repeatedly with dull thuds.It was accompanied by George's screams!Wesley could not bear to look at him, and his wife Wanda had tears in her eyes as she quickly looked away, unable to look any longer.It was the end of the matter.After returning to the office, Sean sat in his chair and let out a long breath.Zander's expression did not look good.He asked after walking over, "Commander Lennon, isn't today's incident anticlimactic?"What Zander meant by "anticlimactic" was that much was said, but little was done.Sean, Gregory, and Anthony arrested the woman George hid in the ar
Sean's sloppy punishment of George was the only reason they could get away with it.Zander finally understood Sean's intention.It was a ploy!It was a way to control his subordinates!Sean gave Gregory and Anthony such a penetrating look that they both felt the pressure and broke out in a cold sweat.It took a while for the pressure to fade away.Sean's voice rang again in the office."Gregory and Anthony, just because I didn't point out your mistakes today in front of the city defense soldiers doesn't mean I won't hold you accountable! You'd better redeem yourselves by doing good service from now on. Otherwise, I'll handle you two all at once!""Thank you, Commander Lennon!"Gregory and Anthony said together. They were both afraid and respectful of Sean.Gregory and Anthony felt a strong sense of fear.The young man in front of them, who looked like he was only in his twenties, was a tough guy.His every move held great meaning.His arrangement and plans could extend to
Wesley and George had become the latest laughingstock in the army base.When the soldiers had finished their training, they would get together and talk.Wesley and George's reputation also hit rock bottom."Centurions are amazing. He made a mistake that bad and hasn't been stripped of his rank.""He has a good father! Commander Jokerman knelt to plead for his son in front of so many people. The Commander-in-chief had no choice but to cut them some slack.""Wesley and George are a disgrace to Dorodo city defense army. It's ridiculous that these two can still serve as leaders!"Such talk was everywhere.Zander gathered these comments and reported them to Sean."Commander, the soldiers in the army are unhappy with Wesley and his son."Zander said in a deep voice.Sean laughed, nodded, and said, "It's what I expected. Wesley and George's reputations would take a nose-dive after what happened. There must be less than 10% soldiers who still support him and his son.""Indeed."Zan
He let his son, George, sit down before saying helplessly, "If we had rebelled when Sean first came, perhaps we could have ousted him as commander-in-chief. But we kept getting defeated in only two days. Even Gregory and Anthony are submissive to him. Do you think we have what it takes to overthrow him?"Although this man is young, you cannot measure his mind and willpower with common sense. His boldness and cunning are far beyond the ordinary. We are no match for him."Hearing Wesley's words, George became angrier."Dad, are you going to give up just like that? There's no way I'll give up even if you do! I will go against him!"No sooner had George said this than he was slapped on the head."I knelt to save you. Why can't you behave yourself and appreciate it? There's no way I can save you again if you commit another mistake!"Wesley said solemnly.He hoped his statement could discourage his son from going against Sean.It was because he knew he did not have what it took to co
Gregory and Anthony nodded together. Wesley was upset but replied anyway, "Yes, we're here. Commander Lennon, what did you want to see us about?""Well, the mayor of Dorodo has just sent us an invitation to his daughter's ball. The mayor of Dorodo has given financial aid to the city defense army over the years, so we must do them a favor."Sean said slowly.He had no interest in the ball or anything like that. Besides, not only did he have no interest, he hated it.In his opinion, balls were wasteful and meaningless events.However, the mayor of Dorodo, Quentin Lewis, gave Dorodo's city defense army 500 million dollars a year, so they had to attend his daughter's ball.The city defense army had two main sources of income.One was a grant from Dragon Kingdom, and the other was support from the mayor. Therefore, they had to attend the ball."The ball is tomorrow night. I'll be there, and you three should prepare to do Mayor Quentin a favor by supporting him. Of course, I assume y
