Song Tingfan looked at him quietly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and just as Xu Bo thought he had tacitly consented, he suddenly kicked the soldier beside him who was administering punishment.
Swift and fierce.
The soldier immediately fell to the ground and passed out.
The force was evident.
The entire scene fell silent.
Xu Bo's expression changed drastically, "Song Tingfan! What are you doing? Do you intend to defy military orders?"
"Military orders? Where are they? Let the General bring them out right away!" Song Tingfan let out a cold laugh, not letting any of them off the hook.
He stepped on the unconscious soldier's leg, slowly grinding down, and continued, "If you can't produce military orders, then the General is administering punishment privately."
"Private punishment, twenty lashes."
Xu Bo indeed did not have military orders, nor would the General give him any since writing them down would be leverage against them.
