Lou felt for the first time that holding back his skills at the test station was a very wrong decision.
After holding back, he could only get a Squad Leader position, and when facing higher-ups like the Commander, he had no choice but to act according to orders.
What if he disobeys?
What rules would remain? Wouldn't the entire Legion be in chaos?
Subordinates cannot disobey orders from superiors. This is the rule of the Military Department; this is the competition in Military Academy; all participants are reserves from various Legions, and naturally, they must follow the rules of the Military Department. Therefore, Lou couldn't disobey his Commander's orders.
But!
There is not an absolute need to execute the orders; there's still a way to avoid executing what he always thought was a foolish order, and that is to disobey the order. And the result of disobeying orders is to accept punishment.
In the Legion, there are various penalties for disobeying orders.
