Although it felt good to finally teach the platoon leader the lesson that he was supposed to learn, it still posed a problem for Hugh and Jane.
Now that the platoon leader was unconscious, the other upper ranks would get suspicious. If the platoon leader even missed one cabinet meeting, he would be searched for.
This was not good for their plan, especially since they wanted to go to the search party for Mia. Ideally, they could have persuaded the platoon leader to ask the other upper ranks to join the search party.
Now that they could not do that, then Hugh and Jane would have to sneak in by themselves. This would be hard to do, especially since they were against a whole army.
"What should we do? Should we just defect the army?" the soldier asked.
Hugh considered it for a second, but it still would not be wise. Although a platoon was a large number of people, it still could not compare to a whole army.
