Salute to the General novel Chapter 2381

On a flight from Jetroina heading for Brimmopolis in Eurasia.

Clad in black clothes and shoes, Cayden was reading the newspaper while listening to his subordinate's report.

Upon learning that he was returning to the country, the Quillens were overjoyed. The current head of the family, Cayden's younger brother Leroy, personally led the family members and rushed to Jetroina to meet Cayden before accompanying him back.

At that moment, Leroy was telling his brother about the changes within the country all these years.

Cayden learned from his younger brother that the current president was Garrett, but the troops were no longer under his direct control but under the Chief Military Governor.

A person who held this position commanded the national army and was responsible for national military affairs.

However, because of the immense power and authority of the position, it had always been set up only during wartimes in the past. In fact, it was usually held by the president.

I didn't expect the Chief Military Governor position to exist in the current peaceful era.

Layden didn't know what to say about Garrett, whether he was naive or foolish to hand such authority over the military to someone else.

Regardless, he felt that this was an opportunity for him as he had a solid foundation in the army, and many veterans there were his comrades back then.

In addition, he also had very strong support from the general public. Over the past few days, countless consortium and wealthy families had sent their people to contact him after learning that he was returning to the country, offering him financial support, manpower, and material resources. They were willing to assist him in reaching greater heights and attaining the prime of his career.

The Five Reclusive Families: the Zartman family, the Norris family, the Zuckerberg family, the Jimmerson family, and the Oilham family - who were known for isolating themselves in prosperous times and going out to save the country in troubled times - also expressed their willingness to serve him.

Hence, not only did Cayden have support from the army and the general public, but Ariarica had also said that they would do whatever it took to help him become Chief Military Governor upon his return to the country, maybe even the president one day.

All the stars seemed to be aligned for his return this time.

If all went well, he would be the President of Eurasia and Chief Military Governor within three years.

However, the first step he had to take was to become the Chief Military Governor.

It did not take long for the plane to finally arrive at Brimmopolis, landing at the military airport of the Capital Garrison.

The aircraft door opened, and Cayden got off the plane nonchalantly along with Leroy and the others.

There was a long red carpet in front of the plane, and the honor guards were standing in position. In the distance, there was a phalanx of fully armed and majestic troops. More than thirty thousand soldiers had lined up to welcome the hero back.

Standing at the end of the red carpet were the president, Garrett and the Chief Military Governor, Nathan.

There were also members of the Great Cabinet standing behind Garrett alongside a dozen ministers.

Nathan was wearing a phoenix military coat and a Leviathan mask. Behind him were the commanders-in-chief of the major armies as well as several important figures of the army.

“Welcome back, great hero!” the tens of thousands of soldiers at the scene shouted in unison.
