Branch 153, reception hall.

As a prosecutor from the headquarters, a mere branch colonel in Menka did not have the courage to try to bribe Ron. The height Ron was standing at now was beyond the reach of any branch officer. Even Brigadier General Pudding Pudding, the top general of the East China Sea, did not dare to show any disrespect.

So after learning the purpose of Ron and others' visit, Mengka immediately arranged for people to prepare the financial statements. At this moment, before his buttocks were hot, several soldiers rushed in with a large pile of documents.

"Lieutenant General Ron, I have only taken over Branch 153 for a year, and all the information that needs to be checked is here."

Mengka stood by with a smile on his face. He was a very realistic person and knew that power was everything, so he was not dissatisfied at all in front of Ron. He prepared the information neatly as if he had a breeze on his sleeves.

"Well, let them check it out."

Ron winked at the soldiers who had been prepared behind him, and the group immediately stepped forward, took out the chronology submitted to the headquarters every year by the 153 branch, and began to check it one by one.

It didn't take long for the accounts to be ascertained.

"Lieutenant General, from March last year to June this year, including the cost of purchasing firearms and repairing warships, a total of 3.32 million Baileys were missing."

There is no such thing as a completely flawless report. That is a deliberate flaw in the new year report system implemented during the Warring States Period. If any Sihai branch's chronology and financial statements are completely consistent, there is no need to say more, just arrest them.

Because that means that he must have used other funds that were not allowed to be used, such as the bounty money prepared for bounties on pirates, or made up the difference with money looted from other places.

However, Mengka seemed to have planned this in advance. He deliberately played himself as a somewhat greedy branch colonel and left several problems on the financial statements that would be discovered, but cleverly avoided this flaw.

3.32 million Baileys, this amount is not too much, not too little. A small Donghai branch with an annual fee of tens of millions, excluding the difference that should have been due to the new calendar system set by the Warring States Period, can be sure that Mengka has been embezzled. Just over a million.

Just a million Baileys!

It's still too much to use this as an excuse to bring down a colonel who has made great achievements.

Ron and Flying Squirrel had expressionless faces, not knowing what they were thinking. The silent air made Menka's hair tingle.

asshole!

Wasn’t it agreed that there was only one million? Why was it found to be three million? ! !

He didn't know the tricks in the department's chronology. He just thought that his subordinates didn't follow his instructions and left some bad debts.

You must know that the Navy clearly stipulates that if the amount exceeds five million Baileys, the prosecutor of the headquarters has the right to directly remove the branch chief of any branch base.

Mengka wiped his cold sweat and felt lucky that the amount was still within the allowable range.

After a moment of silence, the flying squirrel looked at Mengka and said coldly: "Do you have anything to explain? Colonel Mengka."

Plop!

After the words fell, Mengka very spinelessly... fell to his knees.

"Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel!"

Tears and snot were streaming down his face, and Mengka cried so miserably.

"It's my fault. I shouldn't have embezzled military funds! I'm not worthy of being in the navy! I'm willing to accept the punishment from my department!"

His current appearance is no different from those corrupt elements who were found guilty of corruption. Combined with his previous military exploits in which an entire warship was killed and he himself was seriously injured before he managed to "kill" Crowe, a man who gained power and committed suicide The image of Gan's fallen navy emerges vividly on the page.

But that's not what Flying Squirrel wanted to say. Seeing that Mengka was still taking chances, he kicked out angrily, right on Mengka's chin.

Peiran burst out with great force, kicking Mengka's iron chin with the navy logo on it to pieces.

Phew… bang! !

Mengka's whole body was pressed against the wall in the shape of a large font, and the hard stone sunk back into an obvious arc under the huge pressure. His eyes widened, and he opened his mouth to spurt out a mouthful of blood.

"Wow!!"

"Colonel!!"

The soldiers of Branch 153 shivered and looked at the suddenly angry flying squirrel in horror. If it were anyone else, they would definitely swarm him, but as the lieutenant general of the headquarters, flying squirrel would overstep their control. Flying squirrel has the right to kill first and then report later.

"You're right, Mengka!"

The flying squirrel adjusted his purple-striped suit, and his mustache curled up on his lips.

"You don't deserve to be a Marine!!"

Bang!

The door was pushed open, and Kebi, who was in a semi-conscious state, was briefly bandaged and helped by the soldiers who rescued him to the reception hall.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Kebi's eyes flashed, and he breathed every word, and said with difficulty and determination: "Prosecutor... Mr. Prosecutor, I, I want to report Colonel Mengka!"

Seeing Kebi appear, Mengka couldn't say anything he wanted to say.

Finally, he spat out a column of blood with a "poof!" and passed out.

This is the reason why Ron did not directly kill Mengka. As a member of the system, he has the unshakable "order" accumulated by his predecessors for hundreds of years. Instead of using it, he "acts chivalrously and righteously" like a big monkey. How ridiculous is that

The corrupt Navy branch is a gasoline-soaked wreckage. He doesn't need shovelfuls of shovelfuls to bury the wreckage. He just needs to light the fire and the flames will engulf everything.

When the news of Monka's arrest spread to Shields Town, the residents of the town couldn't believe it was true.

Since Mengka came to this branch a year ago, their lives have fallen from heaven to hell in an instant.

In the past, Shields Town was a town built around Navy Branch 153. It was peaceful and harmonious. Few pirates dared to come here to run wild. I don't know how many people outside envied them.

Nowadays, outsiders are taking a detour for fear of being targeted by Mengka.

They had been disappointed for so long that they no longer trusted the navy.

Although the group of strange outsiders who inquired about Mengka's daily behavior in the town were noticed by interested people, they also did not think that Mengka would be severely punished.

It wasn't until a little girl named Lilixiang ran outside the large playground where the cross was erected to watch through the fence, and saw that the half-dead Mengka was indeed tied to the cross. Only then did the residents truly feel the shadow that had been hanging over them. The clouds above my head cleared.

"Beat, beat this scumbag to death!!"

"Thank you, Lord Navy! Thank you!"

“Ask Mengka to hand over Belumeber, my son’s arm was broken by him!!”

The crowd outside the 153rd branch was very excited, but fortunately the soldiers in the branch were big enough to calm them down. Facing these "enthusiastic" residents who wanted to put themselves to death, Mengka rolled his eyes in anger and fainted again.

"Well done, little one."

Ron came to the ward, looked at Kerby with his chest covered with bandages, and gave a thumbs up.

He also didn't expect that Kebi would grit his teeth and remain silent. After all, Kebi was still the timid crybaby who would even say the color of his underwear in shame when someone scared him.

Faced with Ron's compliment, Kirby shyly slapped the back of his head. This action affected the injury on his chest, and he grinned in pain.

"Why don't you make up a lie to deceive him? This will save you some physical pain."

"no!"

After the words fell, Kebi suddenly straightened his face and spoke righteously.

"If Mengka finds some loophole to escape punishment because of my words, then I will be the biggest sinner in Shields Town!"

Ron grinned in a funny way: "Are you willing to get hit three times just because of this? You must know that your internal organs are bleeding profusely. If my soldiers hadn't gone there in time, you wouldn't have survived tonight."

"I know!"

"But I won't tell you until I die!"

Looking at Kirby's determined eyes, Ron smiled.

"Good! Like a man!"

After that, Ron stood up and walked out of the door under Kirby's hesitant eyes. When he reached the door, he stopped and tilted his head: "Do you want to be a navy? Kerby."

"I… "

In an instant, joy made Kebi panic. He paused for a moment, and suddenly felt that he should not hesitate on this question for too long, so he quickly stood up and answered loudly.

"I think!!"

"That's good… "

Ron smiled and strode out of the door.

Kerby, who was worried about gains and losses, was left stunned, not understanding what Ron meant.

So did I join the Navy or not
