Chapter 106 Humiliation and Hope

"Tear!"

The sergeant tore open the can completely. A rich aroma of braised meat quickly spread. The Vahai soldier licked his lips greedily and glanced at the can in the sergeant's hand. His stomach rumbled audibly.

The inopportune sound immediately caught the sergeant's attention. He turned to look at the soldier. The Vahai soldier's hungry, greedy, and cowardly gaze met the EU sergeant's, then quickly shifted away.

"Hey..." The EU sergeant smiled, stabbed a piece of beef with his knife, held it out to the soldier, and asked softly, "Do you want some?"

The Vahai soldier shook his head and continued to move coal.

How could he not want it?

He had been eating dry, hard bread and compressed biscuits for days. His body and spirit were filled with endless cravings for meat.

But here, only EU soldiers were qualified to enjoy those precious canned meats!

They didn't even have the right to drink the soup!

"Try it!" The sergeant's face was full of smiles as he continued to push the beef forward, almost touching the soldier's mouth.

Feeling the aroma of meat rushing into his nostrils, the soldier could no longer restrain himself. He opened his mouth and bit down hard.

But the wonderful sensation of teeth cutting through meat and juice filling his mouth did not appear!

Because at the last moment, the sergeant retracted his hand.

So the soldier's courageous bite fell flat. His teeth collided hard, making a crisp sound. The whole action looked ridiculous!

"Hahaha!" The sergeant saw the soldier's embarrassed and ridiculous appearance and couldn't help laughing. And without knowing when, several EU soldiers had joined him. Their faces all wore mocking smiles, as if watching a clown show.

"Look at him! He looks like a stray dog that hasn't eaten in days!"

"What an idiot..."

"Do soldiers from your country deserve to eat canned meat?"

"If you're willing to bark like a dog a few times, I might consider feeding you a piece of meat!"

Mocking words poured out of the EU soldiers' mouths, like sharp knives stabbing into the Vahai soldier's heart.

He stood there dumbfounded, his face flushed red. He realized he had been tricked.

He was angry and wanted to curse at the EU soldiers or even fight them, but he clenched his fists several times and then released them.

If he acted now, not only would he be punished, but his entire company would be dealt with. If they offended these EU people, the next time they could just find a dangerous mission and send them out, never to return!

Realizing these factors, the Vahai soldier gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and continued to move the heavy coal with his rough hands. But no one noticed that his eyes were already red.

Not just because of hunger, but because of the trampling of his dignity and the humiliation of being at the bottom!

"When your country becomes as powerful as the EU, you will be qualified to eat meat..." The sergeant chewed on the beef in his mouth, looking down at the Vahai soldier with a condescending tone.

But at this moment, a large number of helicopters suddenly approached in the distant sky, and the harsh sound of wind breaking echoed through the sky.

The helicopters were not marked with the EU flag or emblem, but with those of Kuangxi Island, the Federation, and Russia!

It was a fleet of helicopters from several countries.

Behind the large helicopter group were several large transport planes!

...

A few minutes later, the fleet landed at the Koya Hai City military airport.

Nearly a hundred Pioneers jumped out of the helicopters, as well as soldiers from the Federation and Russia. After the doors of the large transport planes opened, boxes of tightly wrapped supplies were transported down with the unfolding of the conveyor belts!

"What is that?"

"New weapons, probably!"

"Using a large number of Pioneers for transportation..."

Inside the airport, some EU soldiers and Vahai soldiers looked curiously at the conveyor belts, speculating about the supplies inside.

But at this moment, a box of supplies overturned from the conveyor belt and fell to the ground. The box broke open, and the contents were exposed to everyone's eyes!

It was a whole box of tomatoes!

The red fruits rolled around, stunning the soldiers!

"This is... food! Vegetables!"

"Tomatoes!"

Incredulous voices sounded, and the surrounding crowd was in an uproar.

Since the world's cataclysm, fresh vegetables had basically disappeared. Even if there were any left, they were specially supplied to the upper echelons of the country. These lower-level soldiers usually only got some dried vegetables, not to mention fruit!

Many people believed that vegetables and fruits would never be born again on Blue Star!

But the scene before their eyes completely shattered their worldview!

Crack!

Crack!

Below the conveyor belt, several Pioneers were opening the boxes. As the sealed wooden boards were violently pried open, the contents were completely revealed to everyone.

"Apples, oranges, corn..."

"Cabbage, onions, lettuce..."

Inside were fresh vegetables and fruits, still covered in dew, obviously freshly picked and transported quickly!

Not only that, but the boxes behind them also contained large amounts of fresh beef, mutton, chicken, duck, pork, etc.!

The total weight of these supplies exceeded seven hundred tons, and after being unloaded, they almost filled the entire airport!

"Gulp..."

Someone couldn't help swallowing, staring at the precious ingredients, their eyes almost shining!

The highest-ranking EU officer in the area walked over with a smile on his face, tightly grasped the hand of the leading Pioneer, and said excitedly, "Thank you! Thank you to Kuangxi Island and the Allied Association for sending these supplies. We will definitely..."

"Hey, hey, hold on!" The Pioneer removed the EU officer's hand without leaving a trace, and then said with a smile, "These things are not for you. These things are a gift from Kuangxi Island to its Vahai United Forces allies!"

The EU officer was stunned.

"From today onwards, Kuangxi Island will regularly and quantitatively provide living and war materials to the national troops that have unified command!"

"And from today onwards, all national troops that have unified command will be directly managed by Kuangxi Island. In addition, no one has the right to assign them any work!"

As the Pioneer's voice echoed in the military airport, a burst of intense cheers erupted!

It was the celebration of the soldiers from Vahai!

The news quickly spread throughout Koya Hai City, reaching the ears of the previously humiliated soldier who was moving coal.

After hearing the news, he was silent for a long time, then put down the coal in his hand and silently walked towards the EU sergeant who had humiliated him earlier.

The sergeant was angrily denouncing Kuangxi Island's actions with several colleagues, completely unaware of the Vahai soldier approaching from behind.

Pat, pat!

The Vahai soldier patted the sergeant on the shoulder.

The sergeant turned his head blankly.

Bang!

The Vahai soldier's fist landed directly on the sergeant's face!

Then, he grabbed the sergeant's collar, his eyes red, and said calmly:

"If you're willing to bark like a dog a few times, I might consider not beating you until you can't take care of yourself!"
