Chapter 429 Gaiden: The False Future IV

"I think it is inappropriate for the grassroots warriors to discuss the rewards and punishments of the entire military system." Jialong, the Soul of Water, glanced at the silent ministers with disdain, took a step forward, and said respectfully.

The Third God Emperor Rodel remained silent and made a gesture, indicating that he should continue.

The Soul of Water continued, "The people are relatively ignorant, easily confused by the appearance of things, and unable to make objective and accurate judgments. What's more, the current reward and punishment system has been in existence for a long time, and nothing wrong has been found. The so-called existence That is to say, it is reasonable, and everything that exists must have its reasonable side. Before a major mistake occurs, appropriate adjustments are enough. Carrying out any kind of reform is just a waste of energy."

"It should be changed!"

Before the Third God Emperor Rodel could react, Dark Soul Lord Frant stood up. As a representative of the army, he had long been distressed by all the injustices in the army. Now that there was finally a chance for reform, how could he miss.

Jialong looked at Frant coldly. Frant pretended not to see it and continued, "In this war, a group of outstanding soldiers emerged. They were brave and tenacious, dared to resist wrong orders, and used their wisdom and The enemy fought hard and finally won, they——"

"Dark Soul Master means that as long as the battle is won, it doesn't matter whether you resist the order or not?" Jialong interrupted Frant unceremoniously, "Do you mean that those who resist the order deserve to be rewarded?"

"I'm just resisting wrong orders." Frant said something bad in his heart.

"Wrong order? Before the end of the war, who can tell which order is correct and which order is wrong! What's more, how can an ordinary subordinate general see the real strategic intention behind a seemingly wrong order? Everyone can understand, so why should we keep it a secret? A complete victory regardless of the overall situation may result in a strategic defeat. I believe that those in the Dark Soul know what is more important or not. Is such a disobedience worthy of our promotion?"

"This -" As a man who has reached his current status solely through military merit, Frant is impeccable militarily, but has made many political mistakes. Furthermore, he is the only one among the six souls in the Temple of Hope who is not from the God-Emperor Rodel family.

Jialong relied on the royal family, and he had always disliked Frant's so-called decency, so he pressed forward step by step, "I would like to ask you, Lord Dark Soul, what is the glory of a knight? What is the duty of a warrior?"

Frant began to regret his impulse just now, but thinking about it, he still had to bite the bullet and answer, "Obey."

Yes, in this era, knights are no longer the representatives of glory, but the source of corruption and greed.

Therefore, for the upper nobles, their so-called glory has long been unable to restrain the brave warriors, so the nobles only hope that they can obey, that's all.

"snort."

Jialong sneered, "It turns out that the Dark Soul Master knows about it, so why do you still want to publicize disobedience?"

Frant's face was red and he had no excuse, so he had to kneel down to plead guilty. In front of the Rodel family, he was just an outsider.

The Third God Emperor Rodel waved his hand and wanted to forget it. Unexpectedly, Jialong held on and said to the third God Emperor Rodel, "God Emperor, if you end it now, what kind of misunderstanding will it cause to the soldiers. They will think that you don't pay attention to whether you resist the order or not. As long as you can win, it doesn't matter what method you use. Once the trend of resistance arises, it is impossible to follow the orders. This is the source of disaster. If things go on like this, where is the majesty of the God Emperor? The temple is where it is today, isn't it precisely because of some leniency at the beginning? !"

"So, how do the Water Souls think this matter should be handled?" Third God Emperor Rodel frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure in his words.

"Disturbing the morale of the military is truly a great treason. If not severely punished, it will be difficult to restrain other attempts by some people with ulterior motives in the temple." Jialong seemed not to notice the displeasure of the Third God Emperor Rodel and continued on.

Seeing that the matter was at an impasse, Prime Minister Charles Lee knew that he could no longer remain silent. He touched the mustache beside his lips, stepped out of the queue slowly, glanced at Frant with a reproachful look, and secretly scolded him for his stubbornness, and most of the matters involved were Rodel's family affairs.

The Prime Minister said in a hoarse voice, "What the Soul of Water said is very true, but it is a little biased."

"oh?"

Jialong's expression was not surprising. It seemed that it was not uncommon for Frant to be in trouble with the Charles Lee Gang.

Jialong turned his attention to Charles Lee and said, "Please give me some advice from the Prime Minister."

"It is indeed inappropriate to advocate disobedience. However, in history, even when the First God Emperor was cultivating his virtues, there were indeed many warriors in the Knights who disobeyed wrong orders for the temple and Anaheim, and ultimately achieved great military exploits. , or even turn the tide of the battle, may I ask the Water Soulsmen if they are heroes?"

"Judging from the results, they can indeed be called heroes, but such people are in the minority after all. If they only advocate disobedience because of this, it is an overgeneralization. The Temple of Divine Power only allowed the Evil Alliance to rise because there were too many people like you. !”

"I don't know when the water soul people heard from me or the dark soul people about 'advocating' disobedience. I don't remember saying that. As for the power of the gods, I think it is the result of the knights forgetting their glory!"

Jialong hesitated, but immediately reacted and said, "From every word the Dark Soul said just now, I can hear that he is advocating disobedience."

"Oh, that only means that you have a poor understanding of what the Dark Soul Master said."

Charles Lee continued without waiting for Jialong to refute, "Being meritorious does not mean being innocent."

"What?" Jialong didn't seem to react. He felt that the prime minister seemed to have said the opposite.

"Being meritorious does not mean being innocent."

Charles Lee touched the mustache beside his lips again and continued expressionlessly, "Denying credit because of guilt will only dampen the enthusiasm of the Temple Knights. Moreover, blindly asking soldiers to obey orders knowing that they are wrong will only cause Unnecessary casualties have even made the already fragile divine power of the temple even more fragmented. When the people's hearts in the Anaheim area are also weakened, it cannot be solved by punishing one or two generals who disobey the order!"

"So?" Third God Emperor Rodel intervened, showing strong interest.

"so."

Charles Li bowed deeply to the Third God Emperor Rodel and said respectfully, "I think we can compromise."

"Compromise?" Third God Emperor Rodel was a little surprised.

"It's just that the merits outweigh the faults."

As soon as the words came out, there was a buzz in the audience. Charles Lee ignored it and continued his detailed explanation, "Resisting an order is a felony anyway, and the reward and punishment can only be deduced from the result. Just like the water Soul Man, as I just said, no one knows what the consequences will be until the war is over. Only after the war is over will it be truly clear whether it is a blessing or a disaster. Only judgments made after the war are objective and reasonable . Moreover, punishment orders must be issued by the God Emperor. I believe that the God Emperor’s judgment is the most just.”

"You will cause trouble for me." Third God Emperor Rodel chuckled.

"I believe that only the judgment of the God Emperor is the most convincing." Charles Lee said respectfully.

"What do you think, sir?"

The Third God Emperor Rodel was still smiling.

"My son agrees with the Prime Minister's point of view."

Sam didn't want to miss the chance, he loved her sister. Immediately stand out of the queue and be the first to agree with the proposal.

As one of the generals participating in the war, I very much welcome this proposal.

"I agree."

"I agree."
