The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2679

When Charlie saw Hamed limping as he walked up the stairs, Charlie felt somewhat curious. So, he casually asked, "Brother, was your leg injured before?" 4

Hamed turned his head around to glance at Charlie before he looked at his leg again as he sighed and said, “My left leg was once seriously injured in a battle. My leg was hit by fragments after a bomb explosion. At that time, there was only one way, which was to amputate my leg, but fortunately, after exhausting all of my energy, I managed to save my leg. However, my leg had already suffered irreversible damage. So, even after recovering, my muscles were severely atrophied, and the function of my leg also deteriorated greatly. So, I ended up being a cripple..." 2

As he spoke, he could not help but lament, "In truth, it i s actually very complicated and difficult to explain and express the difficulties a crippled commander faces in a place like Syria!"

Although being a cripple was not a serious form of disability, no matter what it was, Hamed was still the highest-ranking commander of an armed force.

However, the fact that he had a crippled leg would pose a great influence on his personal image and prestige.

The biggest impact would be that his self-confidence would certainly be greatly decreased.

There was once a time where Hamed was also an ambitious and confident general who was eager to make a difference in the chaotic war. He even hoped that he would become the greatest military commander in the entire opposition force.

However, after he had become a cripple, his influence had reduced greatly, and his self-confidence had also taken a beating because of that.

He had originally had nearly ten thousand men in his team, which could be considered as one of the relatively stronger forces in the opposition. However, when several of his confidants saw that his leg was already crippled and that he had already sustained certain damage to his self-confidence, they took advantage of this opportunity to instigate some of his subordinates to go out and establish their own team, causing the strength of Hamed’s team to suddenly drop greatly.

Sometimes, reality was cruel. When a person was very majestic and intimidating to his subordinates, his subordinates would appear to be very meek and loyal. 3

However, as soon as this person's strength and power began declining, or if his body were to gradually deteriorate, his subordinates would end up being cruel and unscrupulous.

Those who went out to establish their own teams were already considered people who were more socially moral. Those who had no ethics at all would have already taken advantage of this opportunity to get rid

of their boss and replace him.

These kinds of things were indeed very common during ancient times.

For instance, King Arthur was originally the general commander of the army during the ancient dynasty. After the death of King Marcus, he passed the throne o n to his seven-year-old son, King Aragorn. As a result, King Arthur had turned against him and launched a mutiny against the young lord before founding the current dynasty. 2

The reason why Charlie had asked them to remove all of the ammunition was to ensure that Hamed would not suddenly go back on his words after arriving at the meeting place.

After all, all of the planes that the Wade family had arranged for him were civil aircrafts. So, they would certainly be using a civil helicopter to come and pick them up later. A civil helicopter was just like paper in front of an armed helicopter, and it would certainly be completely destroyed if it were to be hit by the cannon.

At this moment, a pilot was standing next to the helicopter. When the pilot saw Hamed coming out with Charlie and Autumn, who were two complete strangers to him, he suddenly felt that things did not look reassuring at all. So, he subconsciously wanted to take out the pistol from his waist.

Hamed immediately said, "Throw your pistol away. These two are my friends!”

Although the pilot still had doubts in his heart, as soon as he heard this, he did not dare to act rashly, and he immediately threw his pistol on the ground.

Hamed instructed again, “Hurry up and start the helicopter!"

The pilot hurriedly climbed into the cockpit to start the propellers. After that, Hamed, Charlie, and Autumn got in and sat inside the cabin. 4
