Chapter 51: Rumors
Recently, rumors have begun to spread in the town, saying that the military has long known that the virus will not be transmitted to creatures other than humans, and that the previous centralized pet processing was not only to take them as research samples, but also to boil the pot and add some food to the soldiers, after all, no matter how small it is, it is meat, and dog meat, cat meat, and bird meat are not delicious.
Everyone who heard about it swore that they had seen with their own eyes the tables of those high-ranking officials, with fragrant bird meat skewers, dog meat hot pot, and cat thighs......
I saw the soldiers grab, skin, and take the meat from cute cats and dogs, and then deliver the raw meat to the kitchens of senior officers......
Obviously, cats and dogs will not be infected, but they put their pets away as a reserve food to ensure that there is meat to eat on the table......
The rumors spread quickly, and the food rationed to the people was mainly coarse grains, with almost no meat, and even if they were paid for a hard day's work, there was only the smell of meat or a little minced meat.
Although the military did not starve most of the people after the grain was opened, eating well and eating well are two different things, a month ago, everyone ate well every day, even the grassroots workers had a big bowl of white rice with meat, but now there are only ordinary white steamed buns and cold rice.
This gap is unacceptable to many people, and it was only because there was really nothing to eat and no way out that they barely endured it, but this rumor seems to have found an outlet for everyone's pressure.
Why do we eat whole grains?
Why do our pets become your food?
Why don't we get meat?
At first, the people still complained and complained, and even if they mentioned it, they scolded a few dog officials for only having fun. Other...... They don't want to and don't dare to do it, after all, the military has helped them stop the zombies, and with food and guns in their hands, the people have nothing and can't fight at all.
The military reacted very quickly, and immediately sent people out to refute the rumors, and even the commander personally went to the firing line to explain that there was meat in the ration food of the soldiers, but the people did not, and this incident still made some people quite dissatisfied.
In fact, the soldiers eat meat because they are facing zombies on the front line, and they may be infected and killed in the next second, and of course the military rations better food to compensate for the dangers of their work.
Most of the people ignore this, and some people know about it, but they immediately forget about it, and just complain about why the soldiers don't give them meat to eat, they are all people, why are there differences...... Something like that.
As everyone knows, the military simply doesn't have that much meat to distribute to the people.
Rumors grew and got out of control, and it was then that the smell of meat appeared in the city for some reason, and there were people in many places who ate meat, some of them biting on meat skewers, some of them actually making a pot of broth, and these people were said to have worked in the military, and they had found meat from warehouses, kitchens, or some other secret places.
The news made all the people boil, and even some soldiers were dissatisfied.
Why are soldiers dissatisfied? Because the rations of the little soldiers are relatively small, and there is no meat in them, according to the rumors, they should be able to eat meat, but because of the exploitation of the superiors, the meat has become the food of those big officials, but they can only gnaw on a hard steamed bun to cushion their stomachs, and the grain rolls they get have to be exchanged for some daily necessities.
No one does not expect life to be better, and no one likes to be deprived of their things, and in this state of mind, coupled with the deliberate efforts of people with good intentions, rumors quickly aroused a chorus among the grassroots people and soldiers.
"Admiral Li, please give me an explanation." At the military headquarters, Commander Lin sat in the main seat of the conference room and asked coldly. "Why haven't the rumors outside been controlled?"
"There must have been malicious incitement." In the face of the commander's questioning, Admiral Li did not react very much, only moved his eyebrows slightly. "I have already sent someone to find out, as long as I am given two days, I can catch the guy who spread the rumors and make trouble, and then the public execution will be carried out to clarify public opinion."
"It's so easy to say, but the situation outside doesn't seem to be able to wait so long?" General Du interjected coolly. "Don't say two days, I think the army will mutini in two hours."
“……… Why didn't General Nadu go to appease? ”
"If you could appease me, you would have appeased me sooner, tsk, everyone knows who the main source of this matter is, right?"
"Knowing that his subordinates are about to rebel but ignoring them, is General Du also ill-intentioned?"
"That's enough." Commander Lin shouted gloomily and stopped the discussion, "First of all, no matter who is secretly inciting public resentment, now the first thing is to suppress the people, prevent the riot from happening, deal with those demonstrators first, and then you two will make trouble." ”
"Hmph...... Deal with it first, yes? ”
With a grim smile on his face, Admiral Li glanced around at everyone in the conference room.
Yun Qi was also among them, she was expressionless and didn't say anything.
"So, what can be done about this?" In an understated tone, General Du seemed to be watching a play, and he didn't care about this matter at all. "I don't know what's going on outside, but it is rumored that it is Lieutenant Colonel Li Youren who is handling this matter...... The name and appearance have been released, which is forcing us to make a decision. ”
"General Li, what do you say?" Commander Lin didn't have a second sentence, and directly asked Admiral Li what to do.
The atmosphere in the conference room was very hot, and the names and appearances were announced, which was tantamount to forcing the military to show an attitude and execute this inverted frieze egg for the people to see. But everyone knows that Li Youren is the only surviving son of Admiral Li, Admiral Li will never push this bloodline out and send him to death, he is almost seventy years old, if his son dies, who will inherit the incense?
“………… The adopted son is not the fault of the godfather, so let's go to work after making my position and relationship with Youren public, and there are some people in charge of this matter, well, I'll give you a list. No matter how angry it is, Admiral Li can only grit his teeth and endure it, "If a general is removed from his post for this matter, those refugees should also be a little angry, and when the time comes, they will release food to appease them, and they should be able to stop the commotion." ”
"The inventory of the logistics department...... But it's tight. General Du suddenly interjected, and showed a smiling smile to Admiral Li. And those people are shouting for meat? ”
"I won't use any grain of rice from the military, my Li family still has some grain in stock, and I'll leave this matter to me."
"It's really up to you, do you want us to wipe your ass?"
"General Du, that's enough." Seeing that General Li was almost unable to hold back his anger, Commander Lin hurriedly stopped General Du, who was scolding him sarcastically, "Since General Li said so, this matter will be handled by you, please." ”
******
When he walked out of the conference room, Yun Qi breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, things seem to be smooth sailing so far, but the most dangerous thing is now, after suffering this secret loss, Admiral Li will definitely go to find out who is secretly manipulating him, if he is found out, ten Yun Qi will not be enough to die.
Fortunately, General Du jumped out and attracted most of the hatred, and it seems that General Li also felt that General Du deliberately wanted to rectify him, and the two seemed to have a deep hatred, but who knows what these big officials thought in their hearts? At least for Xia Xiyue and Du Wuyan's sake, General Du shouldn't betray himself.
Yun Qi didn't know what to do now, anyway, she started, and the rest of the matter had already been handed over to Yu Wenhe, and he was transferred to Commander Lin's dark department to deal with; She had nothing to do but pray that Yuwenhe would be able to clean up the aftermath in a short period of time and wipe out all the traces of the two people's lives in that room.
It's time to go see Xia Xiyue, right? After not seeing each other for two weeks, Yun Qi suddenly found that she missed her very much.
Sleeping in a single bed these days, without the familiar warmth and breath, it is really difficult to sleep, Yun Qibu knows if Xia Xiyue is the same, but she knows that she will probably be tossed by Xia Xiyue again tonight.
As the saying goes, Xiao Biesheng is newlywed, knowing that Xia Xiyue will do this and that at night, but Yun Qi did not have a trace of fear, but had some expectations in her heart, she took a few deep breaths, tried to adjust her mood, and hid this love in the depths to prevent Xia Xiyue from seeing it.
In the distance, Yun Qi was just waiting to meet Xia Xiyue, and didn't notice that a sight was staring at her fiercely.
Admiral Li, who left first, stood in the corner, watching a man come out of the conference room, holding his mobile phone in his hand at the same time to give instructions. Anyway, he is also a person who can sit in the position of general, how can Admiral Li be a brainstorm? Although he didn't know that the situation was taken by surprise, he also knew that someone was trying to get him.
General Du's attitude was quite obvious, because of this, Admiral Li ignored him, what he cared about was Commander Lin, who seemed to remain neutral, this old guy did not take sides, and seemed to be very fair, on the one hand, he said that he was at fault, and on the other hand, he handed over the handling authority to him.
It is precisely because of this that Admiral Li has been alerted, and it is impossible for Commander Lin not to notice such obvious means to engage him, but he has no intention of accusing or pursuing at all, and only focuses on the aftermath, which gives Admiral Li a very bad premonition...... It's not good, it's Commander Lin's faction who started the incident.
Even if it's just a hunch, Admiral Li has no reason not to do it, since he and the Du family are already fighting endlessly, it must be difficult to attack the Du family, so in order to prevent accidents, it is not a bad thing to eradicate the Lin family first to avoid being attacked by the two families. In case the Lin family and the Du family join forces to get him, he won't be able to last long, so it's better to strike first and get rid of all the manpower of Lin Siling, and when the seriously injured Lin family can't make a move, he can deal with the Du family well.
Maybe you can take this opportunity to bring down the two and take the entire base into your hands.
With a hideous sneer on his face, General Li put the phone back in his arms and left the army headquarters quickly.
