Chapter 540: President Su, Loyalty!!!
Te Wei City!
When the Faha Army entered this capital of the You Tai Country, spurred by historical grievances, everyone settled their scores and moved about the city carrying out various actions.
In the Anlan District, a team of Faha soldiers drove a truck and stormed in with great haste.
Due to its location, this area wasn't much affected by the bombings. You could see the complete greening, exquisite tiles, public pool, and sports facilities of this upscale community.
At the forefront were two people, one was the officer of this Faha Army, and the other was a Genetic Warrior, although not wearing Biological Armor.
"Sornta, get your people moving."
Peng Jitu, a Steel Camp Genetic Soldier, was now dressed in a suit, with his hands behind his back, speaking calmly.
As Genetic Warriors, they had already dealt with the Te Wei City Jewish Country army, so they were assigned the task of maintaining post-war order, acting as overseers for the Faha soldiers.
"Mr. Peng, just watch."
Sornta nodded repeatedly. He was a captain of Faha, and after agreeing, he immediately led his subordinates, blocking all exits of the community, and personally posted an official notice at the main entrance.
"To prevent the spread of the Zombie Virus that could plague the whole world, starting now, the You Tai people within the community must leave their homes to accept our centralized control and unified relocation to avoid unknowingly being infected and causing person-to-person transmission, infecting the entire community!"
Looking at the words on the notice, Sornta was very satisfied and turned to see the soldiers around who were already a bit impatient, smiling: "Everyone, I just received a notification that Jieke Group, to reward us for our contributions to human safety, has specially provided us with Dragon Coins, which converted are as much as ten thousand US Dollars for everyone."
"What! Ten thousand US Dollars?"
"Ten thousand US Dollars, I've never seen so much money."
"That's way too much, long live Jieke Group."
The Faha soldiers widened their eyes in disbelief. Ninety-nine percent of them had never seen so much money in their lives.
Ba Country has long suffered from the oppression of You Tai Country, with constant war, economic collapse, and even difficulty in obtaining food. Many of them earn less than a thousand US Dollars a year.
Ten thousand US Dollars is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for these Faha soldiers.
Sornta was not making empty promises. While speaking, he had already arranged for personnel to distribute cash to each soldier on the spot.
Moreover, with the presence of the Genetic Warrior Peng Jitu supervising, no one dared to embezzle, ensuring that Jieke Group's rewards were implemented effectively.
"Capta... Captain, I've only been enlisted for two months and haven't made any contribution yet, this money..."
A new Faha recruit, feeling somewhat embarrassed, felt ashamed to take the money.
Sornta instinctively glanced at Peng Jitu, as ten thousand US Dollars seemed a lot to him.
"Even if you've been enlisted for two months, you must take ten thousand US Dollars."
Peng Jitu didn't hesitate for even half a second and directly answered, "This is a reward from President Su for the brave soldiers who fearlessly battled the Zombie Virus on the front lines. You all are the vanguard of humanity against zombies, this money must be taken by everyone, not a cent less."
Peng Jitu's voice was firm, and in the eyes of these impoverished Faha soldiers, he almost seemed to radiate Holy Light.
"Thank you, thank you, Captain, and thank this... um!"
"This is Mr. Peng from Jieke Group."
"Thank you, Mr. Peng, I will definitely serve Jieke Group diligently, loyalty to President Su!"
The new recruit laughed so hard his molars were exposed, overwhelmed with excitement.
"Work well, and you'll get more in the future."
Peng Jitu patted the new recruit on the shoulder, moving him to tears.
One by one, the soldiers received the rewards from Jieke Group, and the atmosphere became more festive than any holiday.
Holding real cash in their hands, every Faha soldier was elated, and their morale soared.
These Faha soldiers weren't highly educated and didn't understand grand doctrines, but now everyone understood one thing: following Jieke Group meant having food to eat.
With so many as five thousand Faha soldiers, Jieke Group only spent a little over five million US Dollars.
This kind of reward, for the wealthy Jieke Group, was just a drop in the bucket, yet it effectively won over their hearts, making these Faha soldiers willing to work for them.
Even if they used Faha soldiers as cannon fodder and scapegoats, they couldn't mistreat them.
Expecting the horse to run without feeding it is an unethical thing to do, and Jieke Group never engages in such practices.
"Now that everyone has received their rewards, it's time to get to work."
Sornta waved his hand energetically, and the Faha soldiers on the scene responded like a pack of wolves, howling excitedly and leaping towards the community with exceptional efficiency.
It's as if these Faha soldiers, who only earn three thousand a month, suddenly received a bonus of ten thousand, and they had to show their loyalty to the big boss.
"All residents in the community, immediately gather in the open area, disobedience will be deemed as deliberately hiding infection by the Zombie Virus, and you will face our severe punishment."
The loudspeaker's voice echoed above the community, causing many You Tai hiding in their homes to be anxious and uncertain. Most people were unwilling to leave their homes.
The Faha soldiers' response was simple and brutal; soldiers rushed into buildings one by one, violently breaking in.
"You Yei people inside, come out immediately, I suspect you're carrying the Zombie Virus."
The new recruit, who had been enlisted for just two months and received ten thousand dollars, shouted in front of a door, and soon there was movement inside.
"What bullshit Zombie Virus, you filthy and lowly Ba people, you have no right to be here. We won't go with you."
A man's shout came from inside the house, along with the sound of heavy furniture moving, as if the people inside were trying to block the door.
Seeing this, the recruit exchanged looks with a few comrades, then decisively picked up a battering ram and smashed it heavily against the door.
In no time, the lock mechanism was broken, and they rushed in.
A You Tai man blocking the door looked panicked as the recruit kicked him squarely in the chest, sending him flying.
Then, rushing forward, he pummeled the man with the butt of his rifle, without giving any chance for explanation, leaving him with a fractured head and bloody injuries, rolling in a heap, screaming.
The interior was a typical Jewish family setup, with strong religious decorations everywhere, housing three men and two women in total.
Seeing the recruits injure someone, the You Tai women screamed, while the other two men furiously tried to pull the recruit away.
"Dare to fight back, they might be infected with the Zombie Virus; take them down immediately."
The recruit raised his head and, before the other teammates reacted, decisively pulled the trigger of his rifle, piercing through the bodies of the two Jewish men, killing them on the spot.
The two You Tai men fell into a pool of blood, eyes wide open, dead but unpeaceful, utterly unprepared for such a deadly outcome.
The room fell silent instantly, and the two women were dumbfounded with fear.
The man on the ground with a broken head curled up into a ball, terrified by the recruit's casual killing.
The recruit's two comrades saw this and said nothing, instead loudly proclaiming, "Two Zombie Virus carriers have been eliminated, Sankudi, you did well."
The recruit patted his bulging pocket, indicating he had to live up to the bonus from Jieke Group.
Not to mention, there was a deep-seated blood feud between the Ba people and the You Tai. Now that there was an opportunity, how could they miss the chance for revenge?
Scenes like this were happening constantly in the district.
Teams of Faha soldiers stormed into houses, arresting and driving out the You Tai people, imposing strict control on them.
Any acts of resistance by the You Tai people were met with iron-blooded suppression from Faha soldiers, with bloody incidents frequently happening in the neighborhood.
Every so often, a bruised and battered You Tai person would be dragged out, sometimes followed by gunfire, and a You Tai corpse would be carried out.
The various tragedies inflicted by You Tai people on the Ba people over the years were now being met with this inevitable outcome when caught by the Ba people.
The entire neighborhood was shrouded in tension, with pleas, pain, and collapse showing on every You Tai face. The Ba people they once looked down upon had now become the masters deciding their fate, making them tremble with fear.
To the violence occurring in the neighborhood, Sornta paid absolutely no mind.
Not only did he not blame the Faha soldiers who opened fire, he praised them as vanguard heroes cleaning up the Zombie Virus for the world, preventing its destruction.
Peng Jitu naturally turned a blind eye, having no goodwill whatsoever towards the You Tai people.
Since they had caused so much trouble for Jieke Group, they had to be prepared for Jieke Group's reckoning.
Buildings were emptied one by one, the You Tai people driven to the open area of the district, allowed only to bring a few belongings. Most went out empty-handed, forcibly dragged out, with some even naked.
"Captain, everyone in the district is here."
Receiving the report, Sornta nodded.
"Take them all away and escort them to an isolation area for control."
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the You Tai people present were immediately agitated, but facing the dark gun barrels, they had no way to resist. Those who tried to protest were dragged out by Faha soldiers and fed lead in front of everyone.
Escorted by Faha soldiers, these You Tai people could only wear expressions of bitterness and hobble toward the outskirts of Te Wei City.
Outside the city, fences had been erected, with tents inside—extremely rudimentary.
On the outskirts, Faha soldiers patrolled, with machine gun posts and floodlights preventing unauthorized departures.
The number of You Tai people brought here far exceeded just one district, as Faha soldiers exerted full effort in searches throughout Te Wei City, driving thousands of You Tai people here under the suspicion of the Zombie Virus.
Every You Tai person who arrived here felt immense fear, with some shouting, "Concentration camp, this is a concentration camp. These Ba people intend to persecute us."
Yet, hearing this, the Faha soldiers could only laugh, as many of them had lived in such places as children, though those were called refugee camps instead of concentration camps.
And it was their You Tai Country that had forced the Ba people into refugee camps.
Life in the refugee camps offered no guarantees, subjected to malicious airstrikes frequently; so many families ended like that, never again seeing the sun of a new day.
Many of these Faha soldiers grew up in such an environment, and their hatred for the You Tai people wasn't something that could be easily explained with a few words.
Now, it was just the natural rotation of fortune, as now the You Tai people had to experience the conditions of refugees.
