2927 Infuriated
That was the laughter of a few commanders. Right on the heels of that, the few people sitting together raised their hands and placed them on their shoulders. They were as intimate as brothers. Laughter could be heard again.
How could this be?!
He was just a little slower. Why did these Western participants who looked down on China change their minds?
Yesterday, they didn’t want to talk to the Chinese team members. They didn’t even greet them perfunctorily. It was obvious that they were reluctant to.
But today, their relationship had actually turned good. It was as if what he saw yesterday was just an illusion.
Why was this happening?
What happened when he wasn’t around?
Who could stand up and tell him?!
At this moment, Sharuk was about to explode in anger.
He couldn’t accept that the relationship between the Chinese and Western participants had suddenly become very friendly. He couldn’t accept that the weak Chinese participants he looked down on could still win applause.
He couldn’t accept it. The scene of laughter made his eyes hurt.
Xia Jinyuan had already seen Lieutenant Colonel Saluk. It was hard to ignore his malicious gaze.
But so what?
Saluk kept discrediting the image of the Chinese soldiers. He even said that they were volunteers and the Chinese soldiers were conscripts. They were forced to join the military and couldn’t undergo proper training at all. The Chinese soldiers he saw were unbelievably lazy.
…
Hearing the Italian commander’s reminder, even Lieutenant Colonel Xia, who had always been sharp with his words, was stunned for a few seconds. He didn’t expect Saluk to say such inappropriate words in a competition like this to discredit China.
As a lieutenant colonel of a country participating in a large-scale competition, didn’t he know that his words and actions represented the image of a country?
Didn’t he know that he had completely exposed his disgusting nature when he said these words?
As a Chinese soldier who advocated peace and valued people, Xia Jinyuan couldn’t understand.
At this moment, when Lieutenant Colonel Saluk heard the laughter, he would definitely think that they were laughing at some joke. Actually, that was not the case. It was his ignorance and arrogance that made the commanders of other countries laugh.
“I’m very shocked. I can’t understand why he would say such things that have nothing to do with the competition. This is just a military competition. It’s a form of communication. It has nothing to do with anything else. His involvement of politics is too obvious, and it disgusts me.”
When the Italian commander spoke, his body language was more exaggerated. He made an expression of pure disbelief,making the commanders of the other countries laugh.
The commander of the participating team from an European country smiled and asked Xia Jinyuan, “When you heard these comments, were you very angry? What did you think of these arguments? I’m sorry, but before we interacted with the Chinese soldiers, we had similar thoughts.”
This was a very sharp and realistic question. The commander only said what he was thinking without malicious intent. It was just a sharp question. There was no other meaning.
There was a hint of arrogance in Xia Jinyuan’s lazy tone as he replied with a faint smile, “We don’t have the time to argue about an unrealistic question. Our country has just developed. We only work hard for our country. We don’t have the time to pay attention to what other countries say about us.
“Knowing that it’s just a baseless argument that pleases the citizens of other countries, it’s all nonsense to us. Since it’s nonsense, why bother?”
