Chapter 1670
"It's understandable that you want to eat and rest early after a long day of
training. But is it appropriate to fight over such a trivial matter? You're all city
defense soldiers, who went to war together. Don't you understand that? H
Sean scolded exasperatedly.
The two city defense soldiers lowered their heads in shame.
The soldiers around them who had been heckling earlier looked ashamed.
"Commander Young and I will let you have our food, but you must also be
punished!”
Sean then looked at Zander and ordered, “Commander Young, take them outside
to do five sets of push-ups. No eating until they finish!"
"Yes!"
Zander gave a military salute before leading the two city defense soldiers out of
the canteen to do push-ups in front of the main entrance.
One set of push-ups was 20, so five sets were 100.
They could take a one-minute break after each set.
Sean and Zander's dinner was placed in front of the two city defense soldiers.
Other city defense soldiers who had finished their meal curiously came out to
watch.
The two city defense soldiers performed standard push-ups under Zander's
supervision.
It was extremely exhausting to do standard push-ups. The first 20 push-ups were
unnoticeable, but the two city defense soldiers were already finding their arms
sore by the second set.
By the time the third set was done, they felt their arms go numb.
However, they did not groan or complain but only clenched their teeth and went
on with the fourth set of push-ups.
When they completed all five sets of push-ups, the two city defense soldiers were
somehow touched by the smell of the food as they picked up the plate with
trembling hands.
"Remember what Commander Lennon said today and never forget it!"
Zander commanded loudly.
Yes
The two city defense soldiers replied loudly, and the voice of one of them broke
as he shouted.
The onlooking soldiers were also influenced.
"We're lucky to have Commander Lennon as our leader.-That was what all of the
city defense soldiers here thought.
Sean was back in the commander-in-chiefs office.
Though he gave up his and Zander's meal to the city defense soldiers did not
mean he had nothing left to eat.
The canteen served meals to regular city defense soldiers. Sean and the other
leaders had their own canteen in the headquarters building.
Sean and Zander went to the ordinary canteen today to see the living conditions
of the soldiers at the bottom of the hierarchy.
Although there was a small accident, Sean was satisfied with the atmosphere in
the city defense army and the quality of the soldiers.
Of course, they were no match for the legion he had led before.
However, there was nothing he could do about it. It was not the legion he
nurtured. Besides that, it was in the City-State Union and outside Dragon
Kingdom.
The city defense soldiers were somewhat affected by the City-State Union's
chaotic culture, so it was inevitable.
Just then, Zander walked in.
"How was it?"
Sean asked, knowing Zander understood what he was asking.
Sure enough, Zander immediately replied, "It worked very well. The soldiers have
begun to feel the honor and belonging as a team.’
"That's good.”
Honor and belonging as a team were important to an organized legion.
It meant military morale.
Without honor and belonging as a team, they would only be scattered, no matter
how many people got together.
"Commander, why don't I ask the canteen to make you dinner?"
Zander asked.
"No thanks for now. I'm not very hungry."
