Chapter 520: 520
Chapter 521 - Zhao Wenhao
"Nonsense! Qiu Yan threatened the Office of Military Justice and defied military regulations . What do you mean by reasonable?" the commander of the Flying Mount Battalion said in anger .
It was a slap in their faces that Jiang Chen thought it was reasonable .
The senior officer seemed to be warning Jiang Chen with his gloomy look, telling him not to go astray .
But it seemed that Jiang Chen didn't understand him . He said, "First of all, Commander Qiu Yan asked for benefits for the sake of her deceased apprentice brothers and sisters . All these people died for the dynasty and had amazing military merits . Even though you refused to satisfy her request, the punishment doesn't make any sense . "
"She said she wouldn't fight for the dynasty again if I refused," said the officer .
"The commander is just grieving . That shouldn't have been taken seriously . Besides, you refused her coldly first . "
Jiang Chen didn't give the officer any chance to speak . He continued, "And, according to the regulations regarding military service, soldiers without the flying dragon totem image can quit the army as they wish . "
"Really?"
Staring at Jiang Chen, the officer didn't believe him immediately .
"Rule 312," Jiang Chen said calmly .
"Bring me the military regulations book . "
A young officer soon brought him the book of regulations . He turned pale when he saw the item Jiang Chen had just mentioned .
"Second, Qiu Yan only intended to seek justice for the dead soldiers from her battalion . " Jiang Chen went on, "Isn't that completely reasonable?"
Forced to consider this, the North Mansion Battalion and the Flying Mount Battalion were both unhappy, but the senior officer said, "The North Mansion Battalion and the Flying Mount Battalion didn't do anything wrong during the retreat . "
"Could you show us any documents regarding an investigation or any evidence?" asked Jiang Chen .
The senior officer was speechless .
Jiang Chen continued, "You don't have any? What about a testimony from a witness?"
The crowd outside the Office of Military Justice went into an uproar .
"I said they didn't do anything wrong, so they didn't do anything wrong!" the officer said furiously .
"You said they didn't do anything wrong, so they must not have done anything wrong . Who do you think you are?!" Jiang Chen flew into a rage . He shouted, "Four lieutenants and 974 soldiers from the Red Flame Battalion died . That wasn't worth carrying out an investigation? You just declared this without the support of any evidence or testimony? What do human lives mean to you?!"
Jiang Chen seemed to feel angry enough to vent . He continued, "If you officers keep protecting each other, it will only hurt the soldiers fighting for you . Our lives are worthless for you because we don't have a totem image, so why on earth should we fight for the dynasty?!"
"Right! Right!"
"The Office of Military Justice is too controlling!"
Outside, the temporary soldiers all flew into a rage . They joined the verbal attack one after another .
This was exactly what Jiang Chen had wanted . His rationality told him that he'd have been better off staying out of this, but he couldn't .
After seeing Qiu Yan give that speech in a hoarse voice, he felt like he wouldn't be a man if he didn't do anything .
The only way path occurred to him was to provoke the crowd to join his anger .
The Third Legion was made up of these temporary soldiers . They had been unhappy with the discrimination from the dynasty's men for a long time . With Jiang Chen's prompting, a mutiny could happen .
"How dare you!" The officers in the Officer of Military Justice realized how severe things were . It seemed like they wished they could kill Jiang Chen with their glares .
"How dare I? Did I say anything wrong?" Jiang Chen asked, cool-headed .
The officer said coldly, "Give him 100 lashes for causing a racket in the Office of Military Justice!"
"You!"
Qiu Yan almost lost her temper upon hearing this, but Jiang Chen stopped her . He told her through holy awareness, "Don't act on impulse . Let me handle it . "
