These new soldiers should be punished for disobeying Ji Fengyan’s commands, but… it was really too much for it to punish so many.

Lu Shaoqing could not hold it in any longer and turned to say to Ji Fengyan, “General, as the saying goes, the law does not punish the majority. They had been training for many days before this and may be too fatigued, which is why they may be late today. Please forgive them this time, they already know their mistake.”

Ji Fengyan glanced at Lu Shaoqing nonchalantly.

“The law does not punish the majority?” Ji Fengyan raised her brows slightly.

With Ji Fengyan glancing at him like this, even Lu Shaoqing felt tense.

Ji Fengyan laughed softly, then turned to the new soldiers who were being punished. She lifted her hands, then pointed to the new soldiers who were crying, “Advisor Lu, tell me, who are they?”

Lu Shaoqing was slightly taken aback. “They are soldiers.”

Ji Fengyan continued, “Why are they here?”

Lu Shaoqing’s gaze changed, “To fight against the demon clan and protect our land.”

Ji Fengyan laughed, “then tell me, if they were to meet with a demon clan now, what are the chances of their victory? Or let me change my question, what are the chances of them surviving?”

Lu Shaoqing’s heart froze. Seeing the new soldiers who were still immature, it felt as if there was a rock weighing down on him.

“Zero.”
