In the military tent, General Lei, bent over his desk, suddenly raised his head to look at the pushed-in Deputy General Wang and the closely following Zheng Name, Captain Zheng, his face instantly overcast with clouds.
"Zheng Name!" he slammed the desk and shouted, "Insubordination, do you know what crime that is?"
Zheng Name was an alias used by Zheng Shangming in the military.
Zheng Shangming casually pushed aside Deputy General Wang, regarding the guards cramming into the tent as nothing.
He strode forward, both hands braced on the desk, looking down at General Lei, "Seeking personal gain under the guise of public duty, do you know what crime that is?"
General Lei, unable to contain his fury, stood up abruptly, "Is it your place to speak to me like this, Zheng Name?"
Zheng Shangming struck out like lightning, grabbing his shoulders, and pushed him back into his seat.
Due to the sudden exertion of force, a crisp sound of bones cracking came from General Lei's shoulder.
