Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 947

Franklin Wilson welcomed Nathan Cross and the trio with a bunch of his soldiers.

When he saw the four of them, Franklin exclaimed, "General, Commanders, hurry on and come on in!"

Nathan nodded lightly, "After you!"

All of them came to the canteen located on the internal grounds of the secret military base. A hundred banquet tables were already set up.

All of the dishes were homemade delicacies; there were some salad appetizers, roasted ham with potatoes, and many more. Whereas, the wine was from the army's provision.

Nathan, the trio, as well as Colin, Thomas, and the Elite Eight all sat down at their tables. After that, Franklin Wilson and the rest of the soldiers were also seated.

Fang grinned, "General, we are supposed to look for the best hotel in town to celebrate your birthday."

"But I have considered the fact that all of us are active soldiers. If we were to show up at a five-star hotel and drink and party all night, it might not be good for our reputation."

"Thus, after discussing with Sir Franklin Wilson, we have decided to set up a banquet here."

"We will celebrate your birthday in a lowkey manner in our own military ways."

Nathan smiled, "Nah I don't think you guys wanted to celebrate my birthday! All of you boors just wanted an excuse to drink together!"

Everyone heard what the General had said and burst into laughter.

Right then, Franklin Wilson raised his wine glass and dedicate a toast to Nathan Cross, "The General is right. We are all boors, so let's just forget about giving a beautiful birthday speech to the General and just wish him an amazing happy birthday! This glass of wine is for you, General!"

Fang, Heptakill, Destroyer, and a few of the others didn't want to play second fiddle to Franklin Wilson. Thus, all of them quickly stood up on their feet to toast to Nathan.

After they finished, Nathan raised his glass and called out, "Cheers to everyone here, and to our brothers who sacrificed themselves when they fight along our sides!"

Nathan had just done speaking when he splashed half of the contents in his glass onto the ground before finishing the rest. This one's for you, my lost comrades.

Franklin Wilson and the rest of the soldiers saw Nathan's act and imitated his actions too. All of them said in one voice, "Cheers to the General, and also to all of our lost comrades!”
