Chapter: 3342
Chen Zhonglie shouted furiously: "What are these good-for-nothings doing here? Are they here to fight or take a vacation?"
The deputy officer sighed: "Commander, although they are here to fight, you should know that they themselves don't like fighting a tough battle!"
As he said this, the deputy officer added: "Our basic soldiers at the Heavenly Dragon Temple are all pure mercenary soldiers. They train hard and risk their lives for more pay to enjoy life, otherwise, who would want to take such a big risk to do this job?"
Chen Zhonglie fell silent for a moment.
He was well aware of the current situation at the Heavenly Dragon Temple.
Although the Heavenly Dragon Temple indeed has four major warlords and over a hundred star-rated warriors, the vast majority of its ordinary soldiers are in it solely for personal gain.
These mercenary soldiers have no loyalty whatsoever to the Heavenly Dragon Temple. Everyone just thinks that the organization's income, scale, and reputation are not bad, so they choose to sell their lives to the Heavenly Dragon Temple.
Therefore, this group will not take the trouble to work hard for the future of the Heavenly Dragon Temple."
They only care about themselves.
At this time, his deputy commander also said, "It's understandable to stay here for a while. After all, we don't know how long we'll be stuck in this siege, three to five days or ten days and half a month. Everyone should still be able to accept it, biting their teeth inside the tent and getting through, even if they can't solve the power supply issue. But if this situation continues for two to three months or longer, people will definitely not want to spend several months living in tents...."
As he got to this point, his deputy commander reminded him, "Sir, summer is approaching in Syria soon. During that time, daytime temperatures will reach as high as 37-38 degrees or even 40 degrees. No one can tolerate staying in tents under such conditions."
The deputy commander's words left Chen Zhonglei feeling extremely pressured.
Resolving the food supply issue was not a big deal for him; he could purchase food from Israel, whether it was steak or vegetables and milk. Israel could provide a stable supply, just requiring an extra $1 million per day.
However, this modular activity board housing was indeed difficult to resolve.
This modular activity board housing, although similar in nature to the ones used on domestic construction sites, was a completely different thing. Not only was it more complex in terms of construction techniques and had more functions, but its production cost was also geometrically increased.
If he wanted to accommodate 15,000 people in such houses and ensure stable power supply, this would cost at least tens of millions of dollars.
Thinking about this, Chen Zhonglei felt helpless and could only tell his deputy commander to go back and say, "Tell them to bear with it for a bit longer. After the fifth of April, perhaps the temple master will personally come to Syria to resolve these issues. That way, people will only need to hold out for another week or so!"
Chen Zhonglei brought up the example of the Ten Thousand Cavalry Army and managed to temporarily pacify the demands of this group, but he was still troubled by this matter in his heart.
To him, he didn't want this matter to be resolved by the Ten Thousand Cavalry Army in the end, because that would mean his failure in Syria was extremely thorough.
So, he still hopes to find a way to personally resolve the problems in Syria.
This way, he could also preserve his position as the war king.
The deputy commander heard this and couldn't help but express some concern: "Commander, does this matter really need the temple master to come and resolve it? That would be quite unfavorable for us!"
Chen Zhonglei said nervously: "If we have no way to resolve Hamid, then even if I don't want the temple master to come, he won't listen to me anyway!"
Just as he finished speaking, a government army commander rushed in, saying: "Chen, Hamid has brought a message and wants to negotiate with us!"
"What about negotiations?" JrNovels.com
