Gu Beiwang frowned as he looked at the documents brought to him from below, and asked his old partner beside him, "What do you think should be done?"
Commander Gu's bodyguard was a veteran who had served Gu Beiwang for over thirty years, a first-generation army elite soldier. Naturally, he was well aware of what had happened to the Gu family back then, and knew that the troublemaker was none other than the commander's own son.
"Logically speaking, it's understandable that Commander Gao would take action, since that person was genuinely threatening and intimidating, and was going to harm Commander Gao's family."
"What if things don't follow the usual procedure?" Gu Beiwang continued to ask.
His old partner's expression remained unchanged: "If it's not in accordance with common sense, then it should be handled according to military regulations. Privately torturing a prisoner and causing the prisoner's death will result in a serious military court ruling and expulsion from the military."
Even in a normal case, it would only result in a demerit. However, Commander Gao did manage to be more careful; he didn't beat the prisoner beyond repair. Commander Gao only needs to cover all of the prisoner's medical expenses and write a 3,000-word self-criticism, and that should be sufficient.
Therefore, everyone understands the implications of this punishment.
Gu Beiwang nodded: "Okay, then let's do it this way!" He then wrote his name on it and stamped it with the army commander's seal.

The group received the document on the afternoon of the second day.
At this moment, Gao Dan was on the training ground, watching the progress of the soldiers who were taking the test today.
Wen Mu, his face covered in sweat, had just run from where the five-kilometer assessment had ended. He took the water offered by a soldier beside him, drank several mouthfuls, and then spoke:
"Just watched it, what did you think?"
"Although it's a little better than last time, it's still not enough. We'll continue to intensify our training."
Political Commissar Wen almost knelt down: "Commander, is this still not enough?" The elite regiment's training is all done in the manner of special forces, and even the assessment standards are those of special forces.
"If they feel they've had enough, I'll bring over the Flying Dragons' team members for a match!"
"Well, let's forget about that then and continue training!"
The people of Flying Dragon are all trained to the point of being reckless. They are a secret team directly under the command of the top leader and generally only carry out overseas missions.
Although the elite group is strong enough, its true strength will only be revealed in times of war—it is a vital national asset!
If it comes to one-on-one training now, the elite team is still a step behind. Not everyone is as fierce as the team leader, who can beat the Flying Dragons so badly they're practically wetting themselves.
Over here, Wu Jinsheng arrived at the training ground with the newly issued document, looking utterly dejected. "Commander, urgent!"
Gao Dan took a look and knew what it was without even reading the contents.
It bears the seal of the army commander's office; what else could it be but a disciplinary order?
However, having already guessed what would happen, he didn't try to hide anything and directly tore open the document bag and pulled out the papers inside.
After a quick glance, I came to two conclusions:
First, compensation for medical expenses.
A self-criticism of two to three thousand words.
I guessed 80% of the time correctly, but 20% of that was because I underestimated the word count of the self-criticism. I thought a thousand words would be enough.
After reading it, he threw a few scraps of paper at the guard Wu Jin: "A letter of self-criticism, three thousand words."
Wu Jin was internally cursing: So, all those thousand words I stayed up all night writing last night were wasted? How could this be?
