Magic Mech Wars Steel Torrent-Chapter 24 Responsibility and Accountability

Accountability

"You came to Saji Forest as a freshman to participate in the practical combat drill? Since you're studying here with your identity hidden, why haven't you returned to your team now?" Tuttle quickly reacted.

It has to be said that a person who can become a corps commander must have a very sharp and flexible mind.

"There was a bit of a special situation, which caused me not to have the time to join the team. I just happen to need a small favor from you, General Tuttle. As for the general reason, I can say that I found a cave to take shelter in, and I was coincidentally rescued by your 17th Army Corps and my i

njuries were treated." Sulian said.

This was one of the main reasons for his coming here. Being rescued by the army was a very good excuse.

"You want me to send a message to the Polar Star Academy, right? That's no problem. It's a small matter." Tuttle nodded and understood Sulian's meaning.

At the same time.

"I'll order someone to send it later, and I'll arrange for your treatment now." Tuttle was about to call someone, although he was a bit reluctant.

"There's no hurry. The church and the accompanying priests should be with those in need right now. I only have minor injuries." Sulian said.

Tuttle was slightly taken aback.

Not bad, this kid. I thought the grandson of a prince would be a bit pampered, but he actually knows to prioritize the medical treatment of the injured at this time instead of causing trouble by relying on his status.

However...

Minor injuries? That's interesting.

A high-level soldier can't just have minor injuries in an eighth-level magic disaster.

...

"However, since the general is willing to help like this, then I'll thank you in advance." Sulian said with a faint smile.

"Where, it's us who should thank your grandfather for the magical motor vehicle. If it weren't for Prince Ersha getting permission from His Majesty the King and building such a terrifying transportation tool, I'm afraid this magic disaster wouldn't have been stopped in time, and it would have affect

ed more surrounding villages and towns, causing a large number of casualties and damage." Tuttle said with some relief.

"Regarding the magical motor vehicle, it's also the main purpose of my coming here." Sulian said.

"Oh?" Tuttle was a bit surprised.

Sulian is only twelve years old, right? What serious matter could he have regarding such a terrifying transportation tool as the magical motor vehicle?

"First of all, although I know I shouldn't say this at this time, in order to prevent you from having such a situation in the future, I still need to explain it."

"Don't you feel a bit ashamed about the casualties this time?"

"General Tuttle Tommy."

Sulian said in a slightly cold tone!

"What do you mean!? How dare you question the corps commander!" The secretary officer was immediately furious!

He had just reported the casualty data, and he was already in a very heavy and bad mood. How could Sulian say such a thing!?

"Hmm." Tuttle gave the secretary officer a slight glare, signaling him to calm down.

The secretary officer also slightly lowered his head and didn't continue speaking.

"Go ahead." Tuttle was rather calm about this.

Sulian couldn't help but admire him inwardly. As expected of a general who can command ten thousand people, he can still maintain a calm expression in such a situation.

"Although the magical motor vehicles have just started to be built nationwide, and except for our Peter Holy Dominion, they are all in the trial operation stage or have just passed it, let alone arrange military transportation drills. But the carrying capacity data estimated by us and the actual ope

ration data should have been reported to the Central Military Department long ago and distributed to each army corps, even down to the brigade and battalion levels."

"It is clearly marked that the standard carrying capacity of a single-section magical motor vehicle with a cargo box is sixty tons. The upper limit of the carrying capacity of the open car with only the vehicle platform arranged for you by my grandfather this time is even seventy tons."

"The fully equipped Frost Blade Knight in current service weighs no more than fifteen tons. There is still a load capacity of twenty-five tons even if three are placed in one carriage."

"But it's very obvious!"

"You didn't bring the heavy infantry equipment of the army corps on this trip, did you? Was it because you thought it was too far from Kexufuluo to Shaluokefu and it would be too tiring to bring it, or did you think the magical motor vehicle couldn't carry it?"

Sulian questioned.

He knew the casualties were heavy. With his spiritual power, he only needed to cover the temporary station to understand, but he also quickly understood the reason!

That was, for some unknown reason, the heavy equipment of the 15th Army Corps was not fully equipped!

...

Tuttle looked at Sulian and was silent for a while, then took a deep breath.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Sulian!"

"I admit that when I received the report at the beginning, I showed disdain for the carrying capacity of the magical motor vehicle and thought it was just exaggerated propaganda by Prince Ersha for the sake of honor."

"That's why, in order to ensure that the trial operation route was within the carrying capacity range I understood and to arrive at the disaster site safely and in a timely manner, I ordered the heavy infantry to abandon some of their armaments in Shaluokefu, and even removed some of the defensive a

rmor of the knights."

"This is my dereliction of duty!"

"I will also explain it in detail in my subsequent self-report and take the initiative to plead guilty to the Central Military Department!"

Tuttle lowered his head and apologized in an extremely serious and solemn tone!

That's right!

From the very beginning, he didn't fully accept this suddenly appeared transportation tool and scoffed at the description of its transportation capacity.

You know, many things tend to exaggerate when they are first publicized, and the carrying capacity of the magical motor vehicle itself is too incredible compared to traditional carriages, causing most of the generals in the army to disdain that report on the magical motor vehicle.

There were even some generals who didn't even take a look at it. They only knew that there seemed to be some method with a large transportation capacity being deployed nationwide, and they knew nothing else about it.

Tuttle read it, but he questioned its authenticity!

Even though Ersha had given the boarding standards, he still reduced the equipment carried according to his own understanding.

He was mainly responsible for the casualties of the soldiers and the losses of the knights!

"Commander Tuttle..." The secretary officer was a bit incredulous.

He actually used the honorific "Mr." for Sulian and very clearly admitted his own mistake!

...

"Hmph, I don't have the ability to blame you, General. I'm just dissatisfied with your questioning of my family's magical motor vehicle. What you do next is your own business." Sulian snorted.

But in his words, he still retained the honorific for Tuttle. After all, he was always a junior.

"I will keep this dereliction of duty in mind and once again feel very sorry for my arrogant questioning!" Tuttle said.

He very frankly admitted his mistake, which was a bit unexpected for Sulian.

"Okay, I will tell my grandfather. Then let's get back to the matter of the magical motor vehicle. After this incident, what's your opinion on the magical motor vehicle?" Sulian asked.

"The strongest and most perfect transportation tool in the world currently, and there's no one else like it!" Tuttle answered very quickly and decisively.

This actually made Sulian pause slightly.

"You've made quite a big change..." Sulian said.

"I've been completely convinced by the magical motor vehicle. Any doubts can't be shaken in the face of absolute facts!" Tuttle said.

"It's indeed very powerful and shocking." The secretary officer also added.

Sulian's heart stirred.

A rational pragmatist?

It seems that the actual effect has been fully achieved. Although I shouldn't have such an idea, I have to say that this magic disaster actually came at a good time. In the future, there won't be any questioning voices regarding the planning of the magical motor vehicles in the kingdom, and it will

be recognized by the military department!

This Tuttle is also a very good guy. He is frank, steady, and boldly assume one's duty in important matters, and he is a rare existence in the army of a stable country where people just want to muddle through their days.

Sulian's evaluation of him in his heart also rose a lot.

Just as Sulian was about to say something...

"Hurry up and report. I'm an honorary professor at the Knight Research Institute and a professor of magic potions and mechanics at the Polar Star Academy. I want to see your corps commander now!"

Some discordant voices came from outside the tent.
