Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1065

Dean's face took on a furious expression upon hearing Nathan's words.

Phillip also could not hold back his anger. He bellowed, "Nathan, how dare you order me to dig a grave for a dead dog and to kneel and repent before the grave! Do you believe I will kill your entire family—"

Nathan cut him off coldly. "You deserve to be slapped."

Colin snatched a rifle from a prison warden beside him and struck Phillip's face with the butt of the rifle.

A resounding thud rang out.

Colin had struck so hard that Philip's mouth bled profusely and a couple of his teeth fell out.

Phillip had never suffered so much in his entire life. One could only hear muffled cries of pain from him as he covered his mouth with his hand. Needless to say, he dared not utter another word now.

Dean hollered in shock, "How dare you hit

Philip! You will be dead for sure..."

Without hesitation, Colin raised the gun in his hand again and struck Dean's mouth with it!

Bang!

Dean staggered back before falling onto the ground with his mouth full of blood. His tooth had cracked into two halves.

Nathan asked indifferently, "Do you have anything more to say?"

By now Phillip and Dean had collapsed in a heap on the floor, with their faces covered with blood. No more high-and-mighty, they looked like two injured dogs on the verge of death.

George Landon and the other prison wardens were thrilled by the sight before them. A**holes like Phillip and Dean deserve to be taught a lesson by the general.

Nathan turned to George. "Keep a close watch on them as they dig the grave, and make sure they kneel before it until the sun rises. Shoot them on the spot if they defy your orders, or if they attempt to escape!"

A mixture of shock and terror flashed across Phillip's and Dean's eyes.

"Yes, Sir!"

The soldiers beside George loaded their rifles and pointed them at Philip and Dean.

Left without a choice, Phillip and Dean got onto their knees painfully and started to dig the soil under the locust tree with their bare hands.
