Salute To The General

Fang replied, "Word out there is that you and Zion are the most likely candidates. Most of our comrades think that you should become the president, Chief Cross. Zion's mindset is too old-fashioned, so you should take up the position instead. I've spoken to Lucas, Zach, Elijah, Will, and the others about this. They say they support you just like I do—"

Nathan cut him off coldly, "Shut up!"

Fang had gotten so carried away with his blabbering that he didn't even notice Nathan's furious expression until he was interrupted.

The look on Nathan's face was so scary that Fang went silent instantly.

"It's very inappropriate for you guys to be thinking of such things when President Woods is still alive and well. Also, this isn't something for you to concern yourselves with either! You guys are soldiers, and soldiers are not allowed to get involved in politics. Your duty is to protect the country and its people, so do not waste your energy worrying about anything else. As a fellow soldier, all I care about is how I can strengthen my troops and better protect my country. Warfare is the only thing I'm good at, so I can't really do anything else. I don't want you guys causing any further trouble.
