“Load the tanks, arm the planes, and tell the rocket squadron to remain on standby!”
Just then, a robust man with a large and dark face stood up.
It was Roman Vargas, a general under the command of one of the Eight Commanders, Amarok.
“Wolf King, I disagree with your viewpoint.”
Roman looked straight at Andrius and straightforwardly expressed his opinion. “Converging our formation right now is equivalent to handing all the small outposts on the perimeter over to the Western Nations. It’s like abandoning our territory!”
As soon as he said this, the commanders present frowned slightly.
Abandoning territory was an absolute taboo.
Andrius‘ expression darkened, and he said indifferently, “Then, what do you suggest?”
Roman said without reservation, “In my opinion, since the Wolf King has returned and our soldiers are in high spirits, we need to engage the enemy in a real battle.
“In this battle, only victory will be allowed! We must showcase our brilliance, boost our morale, and reassure our people!”
Everyone fell silent at his words.
His opinion was the complete opposite of Andrius‘.
“Nonsense!” Andrius stared at Roman and snorted coldly. “If I’m not mistaken, Griffin Pass was where your subordinates were stationed, right?
“Your 50,000 troops were completely wiped out, and you lost the territory there. It’s a humiliating disgrace!
“Since there’s a great enemy before us now, I haven’t accused you of destroying our forces, yet you dare to suggest that we take the initiative. That’s like serving ourselves to the enemy on a silver platter!
“Guards!”
At that point, Andrius shouted coldly, “Drag him away and give him a hundred lashes on the spot!”
As soon as he spoke, two Lycantroops rushed in and dragged Roman out.
Roman struggled against the Lycantroops holding him and yelled, “Wolf King, I was just offering a suggestion. Why are you punishing me like this? I won’t accept this! I won’t accept it!”
The other commanders all stood up to plead mercy
“Wolf King, it’s disadvantageous to punish a high–ranking officer when a large battle is imminent
“Wolf King, 50,000 troops can’t hold back the assault of a five–million–strong army Please reconsider your decision, Wolf King!”
“Wolf King, General Vargas was also thinking of the bigger picture. Please don’t blame him!”
“Wolf King…”
Andrius‘ cold gaze swept over them all, his eyes indifferent. “Whoever dares to plead for him will receive a hundred lashes as well!”
The commanders froze and were at a loss for words. No one wanted to endure a hundred lashes.

Thus, they all sat down, their expressions disheartened and grim.
“I’ll say this once again.” Andrius looked at the group coldly. “The might of the military cannot be provoked. Anyone who shakes the soldiers‘ morale will be executed without mercy!
“All military affairs will proceed as discussed!
“Dismissed!”
Andrius‘ first meeting with the commanders ended on that note without any cheer.
The commanders left with downcast eyes, obviously dissatisfied.
However, the Wolf King was absolute.
They did not dare to voice their grievances.
Soon, cries of agony came from outside and echoed in the night. Just hearing it was enough to give people chills and evoke sympathy.
As night fell, the moon in the western desert was much lonelier than the one in the south. It hung there
solitarily.
Roman’s camp was still lit..
Hiss…
Whether he was standing, sitting, or lying down, any movement brought pain and agony.
Every time he felt pain, he resented Andrius more.
“Andrius Moonshade thinks he can do whatever he wants just because he’s the Wolf King. He acts arrogantly, disregards my advice, and even resorts to violence. It’s infuriating!”
At that moment, several generals outside the tent heard his words, exchanged glances, and smiled sinisterly. They knocked on the door and entered.
