Walter heard this data, the whole person’s expression is harder than a dead father.
He gritted his teeth and said, “Definitely can’t continue like this, pass my order, from today onwards, as long as there is no war, everyone’s salary will be reduced by half!”
When the adjutant heard this, he said nervously, “Commander, everyone is complaining a lot lately, if you deduct half of their salary again, I’m afraid they will protest en masse!”
Walter questioned in exasperation, “These people stay in the barracks all day long and do nothing, they don’t have to fight, they don’t have to take risks, and they get paid as they are. What do they have to complain about?”
The adjutant said awkwardly, “There has been a lot of negative emotions in the last two days, on the one hand, people are extremely dissatisfied with the current food, on the other hand, it is the problem of accommodation conditions.”
“Yesterday they even sent a few representatives to come and complain to me a lot, and wanted me to find you to solve the problem.”
Walter said with a black face, “Explain to me clearly one by one, what exactly they are not satisfied with.”
The adjutant busily said, “Then I will talk about them one by one, first of all, the food problem, now except for the middle and senior officers. Everyone else has the same food standards as the local government soldiers.”
“Even the suppliers are the same, the local diet is not quite suitable for our soldiers’ habits ……”
“Our soldiers pay a lot of attention to physical fitness, so the usual eating habits are a little more Western American, eating a lot of beef, vegetables, milk, and even peanut butter and ice cream every day.”
Said the adjutant and continued, “As for the accommodation problem, the main thing is that people are really not very satisfied with the current marching tents.”
“The tents are all cobbled together by government troops everywhere, most of them have been sitting in storage for a long time, and leaks are a common occurrence. Now it happens to be the rainy season, so the tents are very humid inside, and the feeling of living is too bad;”
“Moreover, the problem of power supply cannot be guaranteed at all now, and the only few generators sets available cannot meet the common use of more than 30,000 soldiers from both sides.”
“So now we can only use the rotating power supply, and on average, each soldier can use electricity for an average of no more than four hours per day.”
“So everyone is now asking for a unified replacement with modular movable board houses, and then ensure 24-hour power supply.”
