Zhang Hua took a deep breath, frowned, and said, "Xiang Jian, are you questioning our military? Do we need you to tell us what to do?"
A loud "bang" was heard.
Xiang Jian slammed his hand hard on the conference table, making it shake violently.
It startled everyone.
Xiang Jian chuckled and said, "Such an air of authority. Looking at it this way, the old Wu Tianming was much more pleasing to the eye. Company Commander Zhang, I'm warning you, be careful not to die suddenly. After all, it's the apocalypse, anything can happen."
The guard behind Zhang Hua shouted angrily, "Xiang Jian, you're getting more and more arrogant! Do you really think the military can't do anything to you? Do you really think the military won't dare to deal with you?"
Xiang Jian chuckled and said, "Zhao Libing, I won't blame you for yelling at me because you're a top-tier new human. But why should a top-tier new human like you, who's ranked high in the base, have to live a miserable life with the military? How about coming here, where you can eat well, drink well, play with women, and enjoy yourself to the fullest?"
Zhao Libing said coldly, "Do you think everyone is like you, thinking you can completely surpass ordinary people just because you have some skills? Moreover, you have such strong abilities, but all you want to do is stay in the base and enjoy yourself!"
"The vast majority of the tens of thousands of ordinary people in the base are struggling to get enough to eat, and some are even starving to death! There are so many supplies in the town, why can't you all work together to retake it?!"
Wei Minglun took a sip of goji berry tea and said with a smile, "Zhao Libing, you're wrong about that. It was your First Force that insisted on using the broadcast to summon so many people to the base, and as a result, a group of giant monsters appeared in the river, making it impossible to find supplies on the main river. Now we have a food problem. Who's to blame?"
With Wei Minglun taking the lead, the leaders of other forces also started talking at once.
"That's right, back then, several of my brothers died trying to build the highway."
"You only lost a few brothers, while I lost more than thirty, all of them strong and healthy men! Isn't that enough to unite us?"
"Those people came on their own, without any food, and they don't dare to go out and fight. What does it matter to us if they starve to death?"
"I feel that my brothers have done enough for the base, and I just want to live the rest of my life with them."
"......"
Zhang Hua suppressed his anger and calmly said, "Quiet down. We'll hold our monthly meeting next to plan what we'll mainly do next month. There are several key areas. First, the issue of winter clothing. It's already December, and our base is extremely short of both blankets and winter clothes. If winter really comes, the consequences will be unimaginable. I..."
Two "snap" sounds.
Xiang Jian slammed his hand on the table, interrupting, "Company Commander Zhang, I have hundreds of brothers under my command and thousands of family members. We don't need these things. Just move on and I'll see if it's necessary to stay here for the meeting."
Zhang Hua raised his head, gave Xiang Jian a cold look, and continued, "Furthermore, the base only has about 60 tons of public grain left, and there are more than 40,000 survivors who are not under the protection of the major powers. Even if each person is only allocated 2 liang (100 grams) of rice per day, this rice will only last for more than 10 days. I appeal to the major powers to donate some of their grain to help..."
Xiang Jian interrupted again, sneering, "Company Commander Zhang, you said it yourself, those are people who are not protected by the major powers, so what does it have to do with us? We're good enough to take care of our own people, why do you want to call on us to donate grain?"
Enraged, Zhang Hua glared at Xiang Jian with red eyes and said, word by word, "Xiang Jian, it seems you really don't take us seriously?"
Xiang Jian chuckled and said, "Company Commander Zhang, I'm just speaking my mind. We've already given enough to the base. Your First Force is useless, yet you insist on putting on a brave face and using the radio to call the survivors to the base. Now that giant monsters are rampaging on Donghu Lake, cutting off our easy way to obtain food, are you blaming us?"
"If you're so capable, then go and reclaim the towns and villages yourselves and acquire food. Stop staring at the food reserves of our forces."
After saying that, Xiang Jian stretched and asked nonchalantly, "Company Commander Zhang, is there anything else? If not, I'm going back to take an afternoon nap."
Zhang Hua glanced coldly at Xiang Jian, then looked at the other leaders of the forces, and slowly said, "Our military has donated 100 tons of grain and 3 tons of compressed biscuits as public rations."
No one responded; the only sound in the entire conference room was Xiang Jian's occasional strange "tsk tsk tsk" laughter.
The leaders of other factions all fell silent.
Although they are no longer afraid of the military, the military is still the dominant force.
Knowing that Zhang Hua was currently enraged, no one would provoke him at this critical moment.
after all.
Not every new human can be as strong as Xiang Jian.
In particular, Xiang Jian made great contributions to the construction of the base.
He often attracted the attention of hundreds of zombies by himself, giving others an excellent opportunity to eliminate them.
He was nearly killed by zombies several times, but he always survived.
Based on these achievements, even if he offended the most powerful force, the military would not dare to easily take action against him.
Moreover, killing Xiang Jian would be extremely difficult.
A while ago, a group ambushed Xiang Jian, using grenades, heavy machine guns, and even a 40mm rocket launcher, but they still couldn't kill him.
Instead, Xiang Jian wiped out that entire force all by himself.
Anyone with eyes to see can tell that that force is nothing more than a puppet set up by the military.
The military was the one who truly wanted to kill Xiang Jian.
Unfortunately, the military had reservations and did not use the much more powerful 80mm or even 120mm rocket launchers.
