Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 3368

“Greetings to Her Majesty!”

Thomas and his personal soldiers saluted Dido.

Suddenly, he noticed Nathan sitting in an inconspicuous spot nearby. Instinctively, he wanted to bow in greeting, but a look from Nathan stopped him.

At this moment, Rawlinson also bowed before addressing the figure on the throne, Dido, “Greetings, Queen of Wallera, I am Rawlinson, a special envoy sent by Admiral Welz.”

Dido occupied the throne with an expressionless face, resembling an arrogant queen captured in an immortalizing oil painting.

She said calmly, “Hello, Mr. Rawlinson, what happened to the person next to you?”

Dido's gaze fell on Blake, who was lying on the stretcher next to Rawlinson, barely hanging on.

Just as Rawlinson was about to broach the subject, Dido took the initiative to inquire about it.

His face twisted in anger. Pointing at Thomas, who was standing nearby, he said bitterly, “Your Majesty, your Minister of Defense, Thomas Dunn, has truly crossed the line. Despite being fully aware that I was a special envoy sent by Admiral Welz, he audaciously allowed his subordinates to intentionally collide my vehicle with a tank. Fortunately, I managed to jump out of the car just in time, narrowly escaping a disastrous fate. But my adjutant had both his legs crushed, and the two soldiers with me in the vehicle were killed on the spot. I demand a satisfactory explanation from you. Otherwise, I will not let this matter rest. My superior, Admiral Welz, will not tolerate the disrespect shown toward our soldiers.”

Dido nodded. “Mr. Rawlinson, please calm down. If the situation is as you've described, I'll give you a satisfactory answer to the case. But I also want to hear how General Dunn would explain it. I believe he would never pick a fight with you for no reason.”

After saying that, she turned to Thomas and asked, “General Dunn, can you please explain what's going on?”

Thomas immediately recounted the events that had transpired before solemnly saying, “Your Majesty, they barged into our capital without permission and even injured our soldiers. To put it simply, this is their blatant disregard for others, treating lives as if they are worth nothing. Speaking broadly, in other countries, this would be considered an invasion. We have every right to annihilate these intruders.”

Upon hearing this, Rawlinson was both shocked and angry. “How dare you?”

Thomas snapped, “What is there to be afraid of?”
