Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 848

"You rascals! How dare you ask me to harm the General? I will have both of your heads first!"

What the heck?

General of the North?

Rowan Yaleman and Chad Yaleman both stared at Nathan in utter disbelief. Their beady eyes were filled with complete terror.

Even Felix Quirke and the rest of the troop of Fearless Warriors had their tongues tied.

Nathan Cross is the legendary General of the North?

Warren Quirke hurriedly shouted a command, "Stand fast, soldiers! Present arms!"

Felix Quirke and the rest of the troop all straightened their bodies and in one neat file, all of them raised their arms and rendered a hand salute at Nathan Cross.

Warren Quirke led the troop in, saluting the General, "Good day to you, General!"

All of the five hundred soldiers roared loud and clear, "Good day to you, General!"

Nathan Cross raised one arm and returned a salute. He greeted in a perfunctory manner, "Good day to all of you, the reserve unit of the West!”

At that moment, the ground was rumbling.

Thud! Thud!

The neat sound of a march came from afar once again!

It was Franklin Wilson, who was grandly leading a troop of over two thousand soldiers on active duty.

Warren Quirke faltered, "Major-General Wilson, why are you here too?"

Franklin Wilson explained with a smile, "I am here to accompany you for the reserve unit's training and to protect the General while I'm at it, in case the General is

ambushed."

Thump!

Thump!

The Yaleman brothers could not take it anymore. They had lost all hope.

Never had it crossed their minds that Nathan Cross was the General of the North!

Rowan Yaleman and Chad Yaleman were both in utter despair.

Nathan Cross spoke coldly, "Warren Quirke."

Warren stood up in a hurry and answered, "Yes sir!"

Nathan Cross announced with contempt, "Since you are Lucas Ziegler's man, I will not punish you. You return to him and confess all that you have done to him. Whether will you be punished is all up to his discretion."

Warren Quirke fell on his knees and pleaded in a trembling voice, "General Cross, my master has always been a stern man. If he knew that I was trying to assist the Yaleman brothers in harming you, he would definitely take my life with his own hands! Please I beg you, have mercy on me!"

Commander-in-chief of the West, Lucas Ziegler, was a strict and unforgiving man. If he had heard of what Warren Quirke had done, he would certainly refuse to spare Warren's life.

Nathan Cross saw Warren Quicke weep in remorse for a few seconds, before he finally muttered indifferently, "Alright. I bet Lucas would actually kill you if he were aware of what you'd done."

"You don't have to report today's matter to General Lucas!"

"However, I don't think that you are suited to be the chief of armed forces of the West. You are to resign from your position when you return. You may retire!"

Warren's body slumped in relief at the words of Nathan Cross, as if he had just been pardoned of a death sentence. He thanked Nathan repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes! I

will resign from my position when I get back and retire for good!"
