Western Frontier Army Headquarters.

There was a sad atmosphere.

In the dark office, Zhao Ruolong had been sitting there for a whole day.

Twist!

Two soft knocks came from the door, and then the voice of his subordinate Guan Ce came from outside the door.

"General!"

Zhao Ruolong slowly raised his head, looked at the door, and said hoarsely: "Let me continue to be quiet, don't bother me if you're fine."

Guan Ce whispered: "News are coming from the military hospital."

When Zhao Ruolong heard this, he was silent for two seconds before saying, "Come in and report."

Soon, Guan Ce opened the door and came in, walked to Zhao Ruolong's desk and stopped, and said respectfully: "Report to General, Dong Tianbao lost too much blood. Although the situation was extremely dangerous at one time, he was finally rescued."

"But... he will lose his right arm forever, and he will probably be useless in the future."

A deep pain flashed deep in Zhao Ruolong's eyes, and he slowly said: "This is all my responsibility."

Guan Ce knew that the general not only blamed Dong Tianbao for his own courage, but also deeply blamed himself for his brothers who died tragically.

He has been with Zhao Ruolong for ten years and has never seen a general as decadent as he is today.

He couldn't help but persuade: "General, victory or defeat is common in military affairs. The defeat we suffer today will definitely come back a hundred times tomorrow."

Zhao Ruolong shook his head: "There is no future."

"I guess the military headquarters has already known about this matter. I can imagine the current anger of the Grand Commander."

"My commander-in-chief of the West is coming to an end. Even if the king speaks in person, he will not be able to recover the situation."

Guan Ce's expression changed when he heard this, and he said in a lost voice: "General!"

Zhao Ruolong waved his hand: "The rewards and punishments in the army are clear. I made a serious mistake this time and I deserve it to be removed."

"What I hope now is to finish some things before I get ousted."

"For example, have the pensions from brothers been reported? Has the military approved it?"

Guan Ce whispered: "The list of sacrifices has been submitted to the Military Governor's Office. After the Grand Governor's signature, the pensions of more than 300 brothers will be able to be downloaded."

"but--"

Zhao Ruolong said: "But what?"

Guan Ce lowered his head and said, "The Grand Governor was extremely angry about this incident. Now the Grand Governor is holding an urgent meeting to demand that the commanders of all major military regions will be given tomorrow, and you must appear on time, and you must call the general."

"I think the Governor is busy dealing with the overall situation now. It will probably take some time to achieve results."

Zhao Ruolong was silent for two seconds and said slowly: "Yes, this time it was my fault. I caused more than 300 brothers to die tragically. The country should not pay for me."

"Xiaoguan, more than 300 brothers, according to regulations, what is the total pension?"

Guan Ce honestly said: "The pension is 40 times the local salary, and then double compensation. So if you calculate it for one month, the average soldier's pension is 800,000."

"But the pensions for soldiers with meritorious records will increase according to their previous meritorious service."

"So the brothers who died this time have a pension of at least 1 million yuan, and those with higher ranks will be even higher."

Zhao Ruolong said: "Please give me a rough estimate of what it is?"

Guan Ce said: "There are many soldiers and officers who died this time. I estimate the pension to be about 500 million yuan."

Zhao Ruolong nodded: "I have no shame to let the country pay for this money, so let me pay for it."

"My Zhao family has been a wealthy family for generations and is quite rich."

"As the head of the Zhao family, I still have the power to sell the property."

What?

The general wants to sell his family property and take the pensions from his brothers!

Guan Ce hurriedly said, "General, I know your family has a lot of assets, but if the Zhao family forcefully takes out 500 million, the Zhao family will probably plummet and will not fall from now on."

really!

It is probably a foregone conclusion that Zhao Ruolong was demoted by the Grand Commander.

The Zhao family has lost Zhao Ruolong's power and lost money. It can be said that they have lost both power and wealth. It is estimated that they may not be able to recover in another twenty years.

Zhao Ruolong said in a deep voice: "This matter will be done as I said. Tomorrow I will let the family sell their property and hand over 500 million yuan to you. You can personally handle the pension for me."

Guan Ce had no choice but to say, "Yes!"

Zhao Ruolong said again: "Tomorrow, the Governor's Office of the Capital will hold an emergency meeting of the military headquarters, so I won't go."

What?

The Grand Governor gave a dead order!

Guan Ce just wanted to say that he might not be able to go.

Zhao Ruolong had already spoken first: "Whether I go or not, I will punish me the same. And I accept how the Grand Governor punishes me. There is no need to embarrass people. Just wait for the results of the treatment here."

"However, the corpses of the brothers were left in the Wolf Kingdom, but the funeral was still to be held."

"You will find a set of military uniforms that the sacrificed brothers wore during their lifetime, and set them up for them. I will attend the funeral tomorrow and give them a trip."
