章 678: Chapter 34 Tiefeng

The day after the feast, in the early morning, the newly formed three infantry battalions stood in neat rows on the Revodan Military Camp parade ground.

"Someone said to me the other day, after winning a battle, he wanted to eat meat, wanted to sleep. I promised him, 'Back in Revodan, we'll slaughter pigs and sheep!'" Winters stood in front of the podium and asked the entire army, "Yesterday, did we kill pigs?"

"We did!" the soldiers answered.

"Did we slaughter sheep?"

"We did!"

"Then, did everyone eat their fill? Drink their fill? Sleep enough?"

"We did!" shouted a soldier.

Some soldiers caused a stir, "We want to eat another meal!"

"You want another meal?" Winters laughed heartily, "I do too! Sheep offal soup, so delicious! Roast pork, so tasty!"

The soldiers laughed uproariously.

"But we can't!" Winters suddenly changed his tone, "We can't afford to eat or drink it! To put on a feast like yesterday's again, the Iron Peak County Government would go bankrupt!"
