C2846 Contrast and harm (1/2)
Because we are all nobles? What was this reply? Everyone present was confused, only Xiao Letian's face became serious.
”Find a few chairs and untie them. Let them rest …” Find some more food, just our Soldier rations s will do, and some more wine … ”
Xiao Letian was completely treating them with courtesy, no one understood why the Head of the Guards treated these captives so kindly, all of them wanted to annihilate everyone!
However, with an outsider present, no one would be stupid enough to doubt their leader's logic. A few soldiers stacked up a few empty ammunition box and formed a simple dining table.
Beer, red wine and Chinese Soldier rations were placed on the table!
It was already 4 in the morning, and Alfred and the others knew that there would be no feast. This might be the last meal of their lives, eating and drinking as if they were all from starved ghost.
There were huge buckets of iron canned beef s, sweet and painful canned tropical fruits, pieces of hard compressed biscuits that emitted a unique fragrance, and there were even some Dragon Guards who boiled a pot of water and poured some black tea with sugar and milk for the starved ghost s.
And in the end, there was even a piece of dessert, a packet of Ryukyu Black Ice Sugar. It tasted sweet when chewed!
Chinese soldier's Soldier rations was just that crude. It was high in calories, high in protein, high in sugar … I don't care if you have diabetes, but after you finish eating this portion, you'll be able to work six or seven hours in a row with plenty of stamina.
Alfred was really hungry, and perhaps it was the first time he had eaten such a unique dish, and for a moment he thought it was even more delicious than the food he ate in his best restaurant in Paris!
Dong, dong, dong … Alfred tilted his head back to drink a large glass of beer, which eased his nerves a little.
”As expected of the head of the Chinese army, she received such high treatment. Is she not used to eating European food? She even brought the Ryukyu's unique fruits … ”Hur hur, extravagant. Truly extravagant!”
Xiao Letian did not get angry after hearing his ridicule. He smiled lightly as he raised his glass and toasted him, ”These fruits are really from the Ryukyu and Southeast Asia. Our clan has four large fruit canning factories …”
”But you guessed wrong, these food are not for me to eat, these are all Chinese Soldier rations! As long as it's a war, I eat the same food as the soldiers! ”
”What?” ”Impossible!” Alfred and the other noble officers immediately jumped up, ”Soldier rations?!” When did the Chinese become so generous? ”Give this to the soldiers to eat …”
”Nonsense! Those of us who are doomed to die, there's no need to lie to us! ”
”Sit down!” ”All of you, behave …” Bing Tai led his men and pushed them all back down to the ground. ”You bumpkins who have never seen the market before, these are our soldiers' combat rations, believe it or not!”
Xiao Letian spread his hands: Why would I lie to you all... ”Since ancient times, war had always been about limited logistics. Eating is more important, I will never be stingy to my soldiers!”
”Bring them a complete set of Soldier rations …”
Alfred and the others stared in disbelief at an oiled paper bag ten centimeters wide and five centimeters tall.
One of the Soldier rations looked like a brick, which was placed squarely on the table. Opening the package, there were two cans of food, one for meat, one for fruit, and then there were three biscuits wrapped in the same oilcloth.
This type of compressed biscuit could be said to be of the highest grade in the world. The main ingredients were wheat flour, oil, sugar and salt, some of them were dairy products, and some of the compressed biscuit was even mixed with the crumbs of nuts such as peanuts and walnuts.
After the ingredients were cooked, they would be forced to form a hard lump from the high pressure of the machine, which could really cause a large bump on a person's head.
