Chapter 492 Hero Bows



Ren Zhenguo and the other four clenched their fists, grinding their teeth, but they dared not make a move.

Sheng Anhe possessed strong abilities to frame others, and he had even more powerful forces backing him, including his influential father, who held great authority.

Once the charges of rebellion and treason were pinned on them, they would be forever unable to turn the situation around, nailed to the pillar of shame by the people.

Most importantly, they had shed blood for this country, all in the name of protecting their homeland.

If their heartfelt devotion turned into rebellion and treason, their lifelong struggles would become a joke.

"Sheng Anhe, the five of us have already resigned and retired. Don't push your luck," Ren Zhenguo said.

Sheng Anhe sneered, "Am I pushing my luck? What can you do to me?"

He waved his hand and commanded, "Men, these five individuals have embezzled military funds and illegally purchased prosthetics. They have violated the law. Take them down for me!"

As he spoke, ten silver-armored soldiers stepped forward, wielding their battle knives, pressing closer to Ren Zhenguo and the others with an imposing aura.

Ren Zhenguo and the others looked at the approaching silver-armored soldiers, their expressions extremely grim.

Although they were powerful and could defeat god-level experts when they worked together, they were now disabled. How could they possibly be a match for these valiant and skilled iron-blooded soldiers?

Although they had just received their prosthetics, they had not fully adapted to them yet, nor to the artificial eyes.

If a fight were to break out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Big Brother, let's fight them!" Old Five shouted angrily.

Old Two, Old Three, and the others ground their teeth, filled with fury.

However, in Sheng Anhe's hands, there was only one outcome—death.

If they resisted, it would be considered rebellion and treason.

Death was inevitable.

Ren Zhenguo stopped them and said in a deep voice, "Are you all going crazy? We have shed so much blood for this country, what is it for?"

"It is for glory, for honor, and for a deep love for this country."

"Sheng Anhe wants us to rebel so that he can pin numerous crimes on us, turning our lifelong contributions into a joke."

"Big Brother, no matter what, it's death either way. Are we..." Old Five gritted his teeth.

"Shut up, all of you. Let me handle this," Ren Zhenguo said sternly.

After speaking, he took a step forward and walked out, addressing the silver-armored soldiers, "Brothers, we are all comrades. Can you stop for a moment and let me have a few words with Commander Sheng?"

The silver-armored soldiers looked at each other, their expressions somewhat uneasy.

To be honest, they sympathized with the plight of Ren Zhenguo and the others, but Sheng Anhe was their immediate superior. Without Sheng Anhe's orders, they couldn't stop.

Otherwise, they might become the next Ren Zhenguo.

Nevertheless, they respected Ren Zhenguo and gave him face, slowing down their pace and advancing slowly.n0vElusb.c0m

Seeing their response, Ren Zhenguo immediately understood their goodwill. He looked at Sheng Anhe and said, "Commander Sheng, the five of us have become disabled. Your bitterness should have dissipated."

"Now, I dare to ask you, what exactly do you want in order to spare us?"

Sheng Anhe sneered and pointed at the ground. "If you want me to spare you, it's simple. Kneel in front of me, admit your wrongdoings, and lick my shoes until I am satisfied."

"Otherwise, I will hunt you down to the ends of the earth, never allowing you to find peace!"

Arrogant!

Especially arrogant!

This statement fully displayed the arrogance and dominance of a privileged noble.

As he spoke, he clenched his teeth and stared fiercely at Ren Zhenguo.

He had grown up as a young master in the aristocratic courtyard, pampered and spoiled since childhood. Whatever he wanted, he got. He lived a life where everything was handed to him on a silver platter.

Going to the extraterritorial battlefield was just a way for him to gain prestige.

In the army, even the commanding officers of the troops did not dare to say much about his behavior. Only Ren Zhenguo dared to beat him up and publicly scold him, which made him lose face in front of everyone. He was also scolded by his parents and ridiculed by others in the courtyard.

He had always resented Ren Zhenguo for that incident, and under his father's manipulation, his resentment grew stronger. He took every opportunity to torment Ren Zhenguo, assigning him the most dangerous tasks. After Ren Zhenguo became disabled, he simply abandoned him in the logistics department, ignoring him and even withholding his salary.

He wanted to torment Ren Zhenguo so much that Ren Zhenguo would spend the rest of his life in a state of helplessness, living in eternal hell.

Upon hearing that Ren Zhenguo and the others had resigned and left, he immediately led his troops to catch up with them.

When he saw that Ren Zhenguo and the others had been fitted with prosthetics and regained their mobility, he became even more displeased. He wanted to torture Ren Zhenguo even more, to make him submit completely and satisfy his ego, to regain his lost face!

"If I kneel down, will you really spare us?" Ren Zhenguo said in a deep voice.

"Kneel down and lick my feet clean, and I will spare you. Otherwise, today all five of you will be locked up in a military prison!" Sheng Anhe sneered.

"Ren Zhenguo, you... you've gone too far!" Old Two, Old Three, and the others erupted in anger.

Ren Zhenguo, a hero who stood tall and proud, was being humiliated in such a blatant manner!

"Shut up, all of you!"

Ren Zhenguo turned back and gave the four of them a stern look, silencing them all.

Then, he turned to Sheng Anhe and uttered in a resolute tone, "Very well, a man must keep his word. Sheng Anhe, those were your words. In front of everyone, I hope you won't go back on your word!"

After speaking, he made a thud sound and knelt down in front of Sheng Anhe, sincerely saying, "Commander Sheng, I was wrong in the past. I apologize to you."

"I hope you, as a person of high standing, can spare us."

"Big Brother!!" Old Two, Old Three, and the other three saw Ren Zhenguo kneel down, and their eyes turned red. They're filled with anger, their tears streaming down their faces. Their chests felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on them, making it hard for them to breathe.

Humiliation!

This was a naked humiliation!

They had fought on the extraterritorial battlefield for all these years, defending their homeland. They never once bowed their heads, never once bent their backs, and never once knelt down.

Never did they expect that in this moment, Ren Zhenguo's back would bend, forced to kneel down.

A hero kneeling, how humiliating!

"Hahaha!!!"

Sheng Anhe laughed heartily upon seeing Ren Zhenguo kneel. He felt an immense sense of satisfaction and released his pent-up anger. He immediately extended his foot and uttered arrogantly, "Ren Zhenguo, come."

"As long as you lick my feet clean, I'll spare you, never pursuing this matter again!"
