"Oh, don't mention it!" Liao Wentao, who was sitting next to Chu Han, shook his head. His voice was filled with helplessness: "I was in a place with harsh conditions before. I accidentally contracted a hidden disease. It is impossible to become a new human being, and my combat power is not good. , gasping for breath after taking two steps, natural selection, and it is normal to be eliminated from the base troops."
"Then they will send you to do menial work in the farmland? It's difficult to even eat now, let alone live warmly!" Several people nearby were a little angry, feeling that the military at Resolute Base was too unkind.
Liao Wentao was silent for a while and smiled bitterly: "Actually, I was able to get this job only through the back door of my former comrades. With my physical strength, farm work is actually quite difficult."
"You used to be troops guarding the frontier, and you yourself were a lieutenant-level officer!" Some people began to get angry and cursed in a particularly excited tone: "They said they would take away your military rank, and they didn't even give you a penny of subsidy. Isn’t it too much to reject everything in the past?!”
"Who made the apocalypse come? What can be done?" Liao Wentao smiled as if unintentionally: "I am just a second lieutenant. I used to be no more than I am now. At the end of the apocalypse year, all the establishments were rearranged, and generals were The following old military personnel who are determined not to become new humans will all be given out, and those who become new humans will have at least the rank of second lieutenant. Those who have the chance to become new humans but have not yet entered will have all their military ranks reduced."
"So you haven't resisted?" Chu Han joined the discussion at the right time, with a cynical expression on his face, and even slammed the table angrily: "You are all veteran soldiers, they are too merciless! This kind of base is so Cold and ruthless, this is simply no place for people to stay!”
"You can't say that." Liao Wentao smiled bitterly: "There are also situations where military ranks are raised. Those who were once members of the military and are lucky enough to become high-level new humans will of course be given preferential treatment by the higher-ups. Therefore, the leader of our base, Lu Yi, is young. He’s the lieutenant general!”
"It's not as good as that guy named Chu Han, who has done nothing and is a general." Some people began to be dismissive: "How can you say this situation? They are suppressing military personnel in the civilized era and favoring newcomers who join the army in the last century. You must know that Chu Han's level is not as good as Lu Yi. Lu Yi is from a military family, but he is lower than Chu Han. This suppression is also ruthless and shows no mercy at all!"
Chu Han looked like fuck, what does this have to do with him
Please don't be so one-sided, okay? I fought two battles, whether it was the Battle of the Dead City or the Battle of the Mountains, which one was not famous throughout the world for winning more with less and annihilating the enemy? And partiality? What a show of partiality! Look at that guy Lu Yi, besides being polite to him on formal occasions, how often does he fight openly and secretly in private
"Hey! Chu Han's ability to get the general is naturally his. He was lucky to win those two battles!" Liao Wentao said: "But compared to the veteran generals, he is absolutely incomparable. , so among the fifteen generals in China, he can only be regarded as the last, the last."
WTF
Chu Han's face darkened, and he counted down the first egg. Thank you for saying that, which made him feel the last trace of guilt in his heart. The plan at the Fortitude Base in the next two days will be implemented as scheduled!
"But I have to save my feelings. Otherwise, how do you think I can survive the chaotic world of the last days with my physical strength?" Liao Wentao gave everyone a calm look, and his voice continued: "At least It gave us people a buffering time. Most of the people in the army are now New Humans. Not only the Fortitude Base, but even the top management of the Shangjing Survivor Base, the power has mostly fallen into the hands of high-level New Humans, right? We Fortitude The top brass of the base don’t dare to say that all power is concentrated in the hands of Lu Yi, right?”
Chu Han sneered in his heart. After catching the flash of unwillingness in Liao Wentao's eyes, he pretended to be angry and said: "Those new humans have no education at all. God knows what they were in the civilized era before. They have no sense of justice at all. They do things all day long." Even if they are greedy and lustful, do they deserve the military uniform they are wearing?!"
"That's right! What do the senior leaders of this Resolute Base eat?" The people next to him were also extremely angry: "If you eliminate old troops like you who really know how to fight and understand strategy, and promote new people just by relying on their personal combat capabilities, is it really possible? Revitalize China?"
"Ha! Now the world is dominated by the new humanity. Even the top leaders of China have been infiltrated. In such a violent and impetuous world, it is not easy for us to survive." Liao Wentao sneered: "Is it possible that I have no effect on the base? Do you still have the right to be allocated a rich share of materials? Wake up, look at how many people in this base have no food to eat? The most fundamental food problem has not been solved, and the top management of the Resolute Base has no choice but to make such a decision. I It’s really no longer of much use to the base.”
"Are there many people like you?" Chu Han suddenly changed the topic at this moment, as if he was inquiring unintentionally: "You said before that you got this job because of the help of your former comrades. Your comrades are new humans. ?Why doesn’t he arrange a relaxing job for you?”
"How can there be so many easy jobs?" A few farm workers nearby sneered: "Those who make clothes, those who manage logistics, including those who can open restaurants here, do you think these have no background? Those new humans who have just joined the army Officer, do they have no family or friends?”
"This?" Chu Han was horrified, his eyes widened, and then his face couldn't help but turn from green to black, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Isn't this forcing people to die!"
"You just asked me if there are people like me. In fact, most people like me have hidden physical diseases or limited physical ability for various reasons. In short, most of them have starved to death in the past two years." Liao Wentao looked sullen. With a hint of helplessness and sadness: "And those veterans who have not been eliminated by the base troops and have not become new humans are doing tiring and undignified work, just like the Liu Xiang guarding the gate of the base, who used to be ours Squad leader, it was because of his help that I got my current job, but he himself has never entered the new human race. Even if he is excellent in all aspects, he can only serve as a guard at the gate of the base."
"Hmph! He works twelve hours a day, seven days a week without rest." Someone couldn't stand it and said, "His job is no easier than yours. The top management of the Resolute Base is really disappointing."
Chu Han was stunned. The veteran guard at the entrance of the base left a deep impression on him. He was indeed a talented person. He even thought about the construction of the base and tried every means to bring the passing new humans into the Resolute Base. At that time, he was still It's strange that such an outstanding person can at least join the staff department, but now he is reduced to a janitor at the gate of the base
