"Brigadier General Norman, why have you come!"
Conrobel showed a surprised expression, as if completely unaware of Brigadier General Norman's arrival.
Whew!
Brigadier General Norman let out a breath of relief, sensing another layer of meaning from Major General Conrobel's response; it showed that Major General Conrobel did not want to completely break ties with Commander Shangjia Ren.
Imagine how any commander could tolerate the humiliation of being directly sidelined, especially when Commander Shangjia Ren and Conrobel's supporter, the President, were political adversaries.
Since Conrobel did not choose to reveal the matter immediately, it meant that the army could still tolerate each other.
The purpose of Conrobel sounding the bugle was mainly to demonstrate their control over the army to him and Commander Shangjia Ren.
Now Brigadier General Norman was indeed frightened by Conrobel's command over the army.
