"We're going to establish a commando team. Anyone who can join the commando team will have the right to wear their own military uniform, unlimited ammunition, and the highest standard of food."
Basically, everyone was there. Wang Ke was holding a loudspeaker made of paper shells. Whenever Gao Qi said something, he would shout out a sentence.
When it came to the standard of food, someone in the crowd in front of Gao Qi shouted, "What do you mean by the highest standard of food?!"
After Wang Ke translated, Gao Qi thought for a moment and said, "If others can't eat their fill, the commando team members can eat as much as they want. No, it's better to be more specific. Let's say that the commando team members will have a pound of meat and two kilograms of staple food every day. In addition, sugar, cigarettes, alcohol, coffee, and any other non-staple food will be given to the commando first."
After Wang Ke translated Gao Qi's words, as expected, the crowd began to stir.
Hunger was a human's greatest fear. Eating was a human's greatest instinct. In the Wasteland, food was an eternal theme.
Of course, meat was precious. As long as there were no large-scale industrial farms, meat would be precious. The Hellfire was a bandit gang and not a pure Wasteland, but if they wanted to rob the Wastelanders of their livestock, they had to have something to rob.
The people of the Hellfire were currently in a situation where they wouldn't starve to death, but they wouldn't be able to eat their fill either. They would only have a few chances to eat meat every year.
Now, Gao Qi wanted to greatly increase the standard of living of the commando team to a level that they couldn't even imagine before. Only then would people be willing to voluntarily join the highly dangerous commando team.
Or to put it another way, if the standard of food was greatly increased, there would be countless people willing to break their heads to join the commando team.
At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted, "I want to join the commando team! Me! I want to join! "
A burly man with a moustache squeezed out of the crowd and stood in front of Gao Qi. He first looked at Wang Ke, then at Gao Qi, and finally at Chuck who was standing silently at the side. With a serious expression, he said, "I want to join the commando team. I hope you can keep your word."
After Wang Ke finished translating, Gao Qi looked at Chuck and asked, "Who is this guy?"
Chuck said in a low voice, "Kenny Lucas. He's always been the strongest among us. He's very fierce."
Chuck gave this Kenny a very fierce evaluation. Gao Qi shrugged and said to Wang Ke, "Continue shouting. Say that those who want to join the assault team have to go through a selection process. The first selection criteria is that there's no limit to what kind of gun you can use. Those who are confident in hitting this target from 200 meters away, stand over here."
Gao Qi held out his left hand, so Wang Ke shouted, "Come this way if you're confident of hitting this target from 200 meters away."
All of a sudden, hundreds of people changed their positions. None of them stayed where they were.
"Are you all so confident? I don't believe that there are so many sharpshooters. "
Kenny stayed in front of Gao Qi, he pointed at his own nose and said, "I can hit someone from 300 meters away, me! Why don't you look at me?! "
Gao Qi was a little annoyed, because not everyone could hit a half-body target from 200 meters away with a rifle. So he shouted, "The second criteria is that those who can read, stand to my right."
Wang Ke shouted Gao Qi's second order, but this time, the first person to stand to the right was still Kenny.
Kenny pointed at his own nose again and said angrily, "Me! I can totally be the team leader. Is there an extra benefit to being the team leader? "
Gao Qi ignored Kenny, but this time, those who could walk to the right could be said to be very few.
There were fifty people, but in the end, not even thirty could stand up. Moreover, if one looked carefully, one could see that most of these people were middle-aged, at least in their thirties.
Gao Qi was a little helpless. He shouted again, "Those who can use rocket launchers, come over here."
Another dozen people answered and walked to the right, but there were still less than fifty people.
Kenny shouted again, "I, I know how to use a rocket launcher, and I'm very accurate!"
After counting carefully, there were already forty-four people who had taken the initiative to stand up before the assessment. This number was not very auspicious.
Among the forty-four people, there were three women, and the stocky Wild Boar Jenny was also among them. As expected, one could not judge a book by its cover at any time.
Gao Qi looked around and saw that Lori, who had just awakened as an ability user today, was still standing at the side. Gao Qi waved at her and pointed to the crowd on the right, so Lori stood there happily.
Another person that Gao Qi was more satisfied with was Wright, who had just surrendered today.
Gao Qi looked at Wright carefully for a while, then finally pointed at him and pointed to the crowd on the right.
At this time, the young Brady said nervously, "Boss, can I join the commando team? My gun is too weak, but as long as I change it, I can hit a 200-meter target with no problem. I can spell some words, can I join? "
Gao Qi said without hesitation, "Go away."
Gao Qi looked at Wang Ke, but he quickly shook his head and said, "You can't not join, I need a translator."
Wang Ke nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I'll join."
Anna seemed to be a little dissatisfied. She frowned and said, "Are you going to do it yourself?"
Gao Qi pointed at the crowd in front of him and said helplessly, "Look at these people. If I don't lead them myself, what's the point of selecting them? They are a mob in the truest sense of the word. If I want them to become real soldiers, I can only do it myself."
"You haven't fought in a war before."
After grumbling in dissatisfaction, Anna sighed and said, "Well, it seems that I can only join the commando team. Otherwise, do you want me to wait for you alone with them? I'm so beautiful, can you be at ease with a bunch of scum? "
Anna's words made sense. Gao Qi could only smile bitterly and said, "Well, you're right, then …"
Gao Qi looked at Wang Ming Yuan. Wang Ming Yuan took a step back and said with a vigilant face, "Why are you looking at me like that? Why don't you ask him?"
Wang Ming Yuan pointed at Niu Lidong. Gao Qi said calmly, "Is there a need to ask him? He will follow me wherever I go. Old Wang, do you really not want to join my commando team?"
"Join the commando team? Are you kidding me? What's the use of me joining the commando team? If I die, won't it be a loss to the scientific community? I … "
After muttering to himself, Wang Ming Yuan let out a long sigh with a bitter face. Then he said helplessly, "But you're going to the war. If I don't go, then I … will die of discomfort. Alright, I'll go with you. But let me say this first, I won't go to places that are too dangerous."
Knowing that Wang Ming Yuan would join in the end, Gao Qi wasn't worried at all. So he finally looked at Kenny and said, "You, stand over there and participate in the selection with them. You don't have the qualifications to join the commando team. You don't have the final say, I do."
