Chapter 294： You... are all rubbish!

When the soldiers of a unit meet their highest officer, who is also the king of the country they currently belong to, they cannot say hello with a loud voice as a whole, and there is a serious problem here.

If Li Daniu hadn't tested these people with the king's scepter before and knew that none of them were spies or agents, Burns would definitely have driven most of the troops out of Tuvalu.

There are no spies and agents, but it does not mean that there are no soldiers with the attitude of making a living. New Tuvalu lacks population support, so it can only rely on these immigrants to form its own military force. Therefore, the welfare benefits given to these soldiers , basically reached the level of an international mercenary.

In addition to the basic salary, they can also receive a monthly living welfare subsidy of US$500 from the welfare agency of the new Tuvalu government. Moreover, 500 US dollars per month is not the end point. If they can improve their scoring standards according to the new Tuvalu's scoring system for citizens, then the monthly welfare subsidy can reach 3,000 US dollars.

Even if these soldiers have no special contribution to New Tuvalu, as long as they insist on not making any mistakes, then after the 12-year transition assessment period, they can still get a monthly subsidy of 3,000 US dollars.

Twelve years seems to be a long time, but for these soldiers whose average age is no more than 30 years old, after twelve years, they still have a lot of time and energy to squander the monthly living allowance of 3,000 US dollars .

"If you really think that you can live a carefree retirement life with a monthly living allowance of 3,000 US dollars, then I can only say sorry, because you don't understand at all what it is This kind of talent can get a living allowance of 3,000 US dollars per month." Li Daniu decided in his heart that Burns should arrange someone to explain to these soldiers what the standard of living allowance payment is.

The law of New Tuvalu stipulates that only those who help the construction of New Tuvalu are eligible to enjoy monthly living allowances. Simply put, they must have a job or engage in personal productive labor. If you just wait to die, let alone 3,000 US dollars, you can't even get the lowest level of 500 US dollars in living allowances.

Looking at the soldiers doing push-ups, the expression on Li Daniu's face became more and more serious, because he could clearly see, and even hear, some soldiers who were doing push-ups, their attitudes were lazy, and they were still complaining softly.

These complaints were so low that the gendarmerie standing next to those soldiers couldn't hear what some soldiers were complaining about, and they didn't even hear some soldiers muttering softly.

Is it my fault that my hearing is too good?

After Li Daniu looked at these soldiers with a dark face after they finished fifty push-ups, Ryan ordered them to greet and salute loudly again.

Compared with the first time, the salute and greetings this time were much more orderly. But for someone like Li Daniu who has seen the Chinese military parade in his previous life, this level of neatness is simply a slap in the face.

Ryan looked at Li Daniu's black face in shame, and made up his mind that after His Majesty the King left, he would severely drill the soldiers of the two square teams.

Li Daniu waved to Ryan, walked to the front of the two square teams, looked at the soldiers in front of him, and taunted loudly.

"Do you think that I am just a king with a lot of money? Or, do you just regard immigration to New Tuvalu as a job requirement?"

These two sentences made many soldiers snicker. For them, being a soldier in such a place is indeed as interesting as being a security guard in some companies.

Li Daniu continued: "I have never been a soldier, but I have also heard that there is an unspoken rule in the military camp, that is, whoever has the biggest fist has the loudest voice. So, I want to know, are you so loud to me? Is it very dissatisfied to give you a lecture?"

No one spoke out, they just lacked discipline, lacked awe of New Tuvalu, and were not stupid, how could they accept what the king said?

"If you don't speak, I will take it as your acquiescence that what I said is correct." Li Daniu laughed, and asked to the side: "Colonel Ryan, there should be engineers in my army, right?"

Although Ryan didn't understand what Li Daniu meant, he still replied very quickly: "There are engineers, they belong to the logistics force at present, and besides engineers, other infantry can also serve as engineers temporarily."

"Okay." Li Daniu nodded and said, "I'll give you an hour to choose a venue that can accommodate 18,000 people, and build a ring for me in the middle."

"Ring arena?" Rao Yi Rui En's military accomplishment, he was also stunned by Li Daniu's unexpected order.

"Colonel, do you have any doubts about my order?" Li Daniu widened his eyes.

"Of order, Marshal." Ryan immediately saluted, then turned around and began to arrange.

When the military base was being built, a place was already planned for military parade. Although the concrete floor was not paved due to time constraints, it was crushed many times with construction machinery.

Under Ryan's command, a simple but very solid 2-meter-high arena was built in 40 minutes, and the audio equipment was arranged.

During this process, Li Daniu ordered Ryan to pull all the soldiers on the island, regardless of their arms, to the ring.

18,000 people surrounded the arena densely and neatly in line.

Li Daniu took off his coat, handed it to Burns, and then took the microphone to prepare to walk towards the ring.

Both Burns and Ryan had guessed what Li Daniu was going to do at this time, but Ryan didn't believe his guess, because he felt that Li Daniu didn't look like he could fight, and , in his opinion, how could a king single out his soldiers?

Even if the king wants to play a few games with his soldiers, he will definitely notify him in advance to arrange candidates instead of making a surprise attack like this.

Compared to Ryan's speculation and suspicion, Burns' face turned pale at this time, because he suddenly remembered what Castro had told him before, when Li Daniu held the jewelry auction, he met with several black men. There have been conflicts with people from the water security company.

"Your Majesty, please think twice." Burns stopped Li Daniu cryptically, and said in a low voice: "You don't need to do this at all, just leave this question to Colonel Ryan, I believe he will definitely be able to help us. Valu, trained an elite unit."

Colonel Ryan, who was relatively close, was stunned when he heard what Burns said . Could it be that his guess was true?

Li Daniu shook his head and said: "Burns, you have to understand that this is not a problem of the training of the training department at all, but a problem of their lack of respect for New Tuvalu. Now, let them start with me. Be in awe of this king."

Burns knew that no one could stop what Li Daniu was determined to do, so he could only look anxiously at Ryan, and when Li Daniu walked towards the ring, he whispered, "Hurry up and arrange some sensible soldiers , otherwise, you..."

Before Burns finished speaking, Ryan had already understood. Although he didn't know how to behave in a flattering manner, he was already in his forties, how could he not understand such an obvious meaning?

Although he disagreed with this approach in his heart, and he felt that it would be too late to arrange such a thing when all the soldiers had arrived near the ring and lined up to finish. But he still called his orderly and gave orders.

But just as he ordered, Li Daniu had already stepped onto the ring, and then spoke to the soldiers in the entire venue.

"Cough..." After trying the microphone, Li Daniu said, "First of all, I would like to give you a formal welcome for choosing New Tuvalu. Then, I want to tell you that choosing New Tuvalu is definitely an important moment in your life. The most correct choice. Finally, I would like to ask you, do you think... now, are you worthy of New Tuvalu? Are you worthy of being my soldiers?"

Before the uproar of the scene could be heard, Li Daniu said another word, which completely detonated the audience.

"After I visited the barracks today and watched your training, I have to say... you guys are all rubbish."
