Chapter 124 Let Them Do What They Want
Even though I am a Rimai person, I still have a love for sugar. But this is less important than table salt.
Although there are many women in the Crurod Empire who like sweet taste, their voices have never been mainstream.
At least for a long time, male people have been accustomed to believe that eating too much sugar will lead to mental decline. Instead of eating sugar, eat salt.
Eat salt to have the strength to work.
Eating sweets will cause your teeth to rot early and your mouth to become sour.
Mouth is sour... This forces everyone to drink more water.
Ever since, even though the women in the Crurod Empire like to eat sweets, they really hope to eat more sweets. But unfortunately, they are not mainstream voices.
The male people who occupy the mainstream of society did not hesitate to shut them up in the coldest tone.
Of course, where there is oppression, there will be resistance.
It's just that most male Japanese people, including Pierre, think that women who like to eat sweets are joking about their teeth.
All prohibited!
But...
When Pierre had an older sister, her sister had the ability to make sugar. As a result, the female members of the family were naturally lucky enough to be able to taste this brick-red sugar cake. Although their father and brother-in-law were so angry that they beat their sister with vines, they should not spread "poison that can reduce intelligence" in the house. ".
But now, Pierre himself is very embarrassed.
The pig-headed men and the black-haired kobolds have told the entire Crurod Empire through war what kind of important material sugar is.
In particular, the pig-headed man's kettle and lunch box have hidden compartments for storing sugar granules. As long as a bowl of porridge or a glass of water is put in, sweet porridge or sugar water is the best source of energy.
only……
Even so, Pierre still won't learn the ways of the pig-headed man.
Pig-headed people are fond of sweets because of their tradition. They had already regarded sugar as a noble gift during the Cold War Age.
What is good above is followed by what is good below.
Just like the pig-headed warrior class is a group that eats polished rice, while the lower class people eat rice bran.
With the subsequent development of productivity, also known as modernization, more and more people were finally able to eat things that only nobles could eat before.
As a result, everyone thought of it, in order to make themselves different than before.
Polished rice has become the high-quality staple food designated by the people of the Akijin Empire, and other miscellaneous staple foods have all died.
In the same way, sweets that only noble lords could eat in the past have now naturally become a must-have for almost every soldier in the Akitsu Empire.
Just to reflect the difference in status, the higher the level, the more exquisite and sweet the candy you eat. As for the lower-grade ones, the candy they eat is naturally relatively simple, and the sweetness is not much higher.
So much so that when the Akitsu Empire invaded the Crurod Empire, most of the lower-level soldiers of the Akitsu Empire grabbed whatever fruits produced by the Crurod Empire.
Especially watermelon. I don’t know if this fruit is rich in water and not low in sweetness. Pig-headed people sometimes fight among themselves to snatch it.
But no matter what, the matter of sweetness is completely incomprehensible to Pierre.
Bang!
Mailin: "I wonder if these pig-headed men are a little too tough..."
Pierre: "Hard? Is the skull hard enough for a bullet?"
Bang!
Mailin: "Rather than shooting one at a time and hitting any pig-headed man who moves when he sees it, it would be better to blow them up with bombs directly at sea and kill them completely..."
Pierre: "Isn't that even more troublesome? There is a lot of rotten meat on the sea. And you see, our friend who is responsible for cleaning has picked up a lot of things."
Just because the work of inspecting the corpses one by one and taking out all the equipment from the corpses had been proceeding in an orderly manner, Pierre, Mailin, and other Crurod Empire soldiers saw a lot of cans, or All kinds of useful materials are placed in the open space of the port.
Nothing else, just cans, cans that have not been opened, which is enough to feed an unknown number of soldiers for at least four days.
As for those weapons and equipment, leave them to the scientists at the rear.
Anyway, these front-line soldiers basically don't know how to operate.
Even that hot light knife.
They also don't know which button is activated to give it the ability to chop armor plates.
At most, it's like taking an iron rod and knocking it everywhere.
After all, the Rimai people are not a primitive tribal intelligent race in the cold weapon age. They have guns... Why use knives to solve problems? Isn't this an idiot?
Although today's military officers or nobles still maintain the habit of wearing a sword on their waist; but who would actually take the initiative to draw a sword and fight the enemy desperately?
I really want to draw my sword...
It is estimated that Pierre's most habitual behavior is to install a spur on his thunder blast assault rifle.
Because the rifle with the spear stab is always longer than the ordinary waist knife.
Using one's strengths to overcome one's shortcomings, isn't this a very simple principle?
Using something shorter to fight something longer is not asking for trouble, making it more difficult for yourself to fight?
And... to be honest, who these days would really use only a waist knife, and then rush straight into the battlefield where guns and rain are everywhere?
As a country with advanced weapons and equipment, the Akitsu Empire still believes that the most noble and even supreme way of fighting is to kill the enemy with a sharp blade, not to mention worshipping gods...
I don't know what kind of bullshit theory is that made up by a brainless person. They use traditional methods to fight even though they have guns and cannons.
Have you seen the pig-headed people who try to play dead being marked by the goblins and then having their heads blown up one by one with bullets?
This is efficiency!
How long will it take to chop with a knife?
Simply chopping people is a very physically demanding job, and it will also seriously consume the strength of the knife holder.
By then, more food losses will occur.
Therefore, let those emotionless gunmen shoot themselves slowly. As long as the pig-headed people can "voluntarily" hand over enough things later, no one will mind the bloody scene now.
The only thing is that it is a bit of a waste of bullets.
But it's okay.
Compared to the well-known tradition of the Gaomu Kingdom, which is to use cannons to smash some unfortunate person to pieces, the Krurod Empire is definitely a very merciful place.
At the same time, unlike the scene where the bodies of the pig-headed people were transported away like meat from a slaughterhouse, the wreckage of two frigates that should have sunk were being dragged ashore.
Although the two frigates looked basically like scrap metal, the metal on the ships and the well-sealed things inside were definitely enough for everyone to use for a while.
Kash: "I didn't expect the members of the navy to act so quickly."
Guillermo: "Because there is no profit, they get up early, and their navy has the right to take at least 52% of the supplies."
Kash: "I say, are these guys a bit shady?"
Similar to Pierre and his party, General Kash brought his staff and some senior generals to the port for inspection.
Guillermo: "Black? You can't justify that. Especially since our army didn't participate in the war, and sank the two frigates armed with various wave energy cannons and equipped with special radar devices."
Kash: "So..."
Guillermo: "Let them be. In the end, we will always benefit. After all, we are not pig-headed people, and we won't do stupid things like separating logistics between the navy and the army."
Kash: "Pfft..."
Indeed.
Unlike the complete separation of the navy and the army of the Akitsu Empire, the Krurod Empire has had a unified logistics standard since its founding.
Although this standard is a military standard created by the family of the current Queen Paula of Kash and other Japanese Mai people, Rujia; but apart from this set of standards, at least the navy, army and air force of the Krurod Empire are still using it.
And more importantly, the Krurod Empire will never make a joke that the army's cannons cannot be used in the navy, and the navy's guided missiles cannot be used in the army.
This is the culprit that creates obstacles for its own troops and leads to repeated defeats.
In short, this month, Cash needs to defend Wright City until the rest is complete...
