After arriving, Bai Yuhao saw that the rest of the Crimson Dragon Army had ambushed the surrounding concealed terrain under the command of Qin Fengming.
"Commander Bai, Vice Commander Liu …" When Qin Fengming saw Bai Yuhao and Liu Yunxuan appear, he immediately went up and respectfully greeted them.
"How many soldiers are left?" Bai Yuhao immediately asked Qin Fengming.
"Less than three thousand." Qin Fengming replied.
Bai Yuhao's gaze grew heavy. This kind of force might not even be enough to defeat the State of Shuixia army that was chasing after them. Not to mention, there might be other armies from State of Shuixia that were chasing after them.
"Even if we lay in ambush, if we can't repel the enemy, then the situation will be even worse for us." Liu Yunxuan said in worry.
"Where are the civilians that we evacuated?" Bai Yuhao obviously understood this. After pondering for a moment, he immediately raised his head and asked.
"It's at the bottom of the hill over there." Qin Fengming pointed at a hill not far away.
"Commander Qin, cooperate with vice commander to continue to command and deploy the ambush. The pursuers from State of Shuixia will be here soon, and only by repelling them will we have the chance to safely evacuate." Bai Yuhao said to Qin Fengming and then looked at Liu Yunxuan.
"Go." Liu Yunxuan seemed to have guessed what Bai Yuhao was going to do and understood.
Bai Yuhao then turned around and walked towards the hillside …
"Vice Commander Liu, what is Commander Bai going to do?" Qin Fengming couldn't help but ask.
"We don't have enough troops to repel the pursuers, so we have to increase our strength." Liu Yunxuan replied calmly.
"Strengthen our forces? "Then how are we supposed to increase our strength? That's obviously all we have …" Qin Fengming didn't know how to react for a moment.
"Temporary recruitment!" Liu Yunxuan narrowed her eyes.
"Temporary recruitment? Could it be that Commander Bai wanted to recruit soldiers from the civilians who had just escaped? "I'm afraid that's impossible, those civilians are already scared to death, what's more, they haven't received any training, moreover, I feel that those commoners already have a lot of complaints towards our Crimson Dragon Army …" After Qin Fengming understood the situation, he spoke with great ease. He felt that it would be difficult to resolve the crisis in front of him if they were to temporarily enlist troops at such a time.
"He must have his way. He was a man who was good at making impossible possibilities. " Liu Yunxuan was very confident in Bai Yuhao.
"Speaking of which, Commander Bai is so young! But right now, he was already the new commander of Red Dragon Legion. However, was he really as the rumors said, a savior who had transformed into a miracle? It is said that in the battle of Yi City, Commander Bai protected his Yi City and attacked the enemy with two times the strength of his enemy … " As Qin Fengming gasped in surprise, he found it hard to believe. He felt that such a thing wasn't something that could be done by a human.
"You'll know soon enough." A light smile appeared on Liu Yunxuan's delicate face, carrying some anticipation.
On the other side, Bai Yuhao had already reached the bottom of the hill, and saw the black mass of people from Meng City crowded on the grass at the foot of the hill, sitting, standing, lying and leaning, there were roughly three to four thousand of them, half of them were the old and weak. All of them looked very scared, their bodies were trembling, as if they had not even woken up from the nightmare of war.
"I am the commander of the Red Dragon Legion. I have a few words to say to everyone, and I hope that everyone can hear me." However, Bai Yuhao's gaze froze and he revealed a strong aura, giving off the feeling of an innate hegemon as he strode forward and shouted loudly.
Bai Yuhao's words instantly silenced the originally noisy crowd. The Meng City citizens all focused their gazes on him, revealing expressions of shock, as if they were also intimidated by his aura.
"I know that everyone just lost their homes, and there are still many people who have lost their loved ones, so all of them are in deep sorrow. I am as sad as all of you, but the dead have passed away, the living have continued to live. "The pursuers of State of Shuixia are about to arrive, but with the current Crimson Dragon Army's strength, it's not enough to repel the pursuers. So, I hope that one of you can stand out and fight alongside the Crimson Dragon Army …" Bai Yuhao said excitedly.
"What dogshit Crimson Dragon Army? They're just a bunch of bastards. They even ran for their lives without caring about our citizens. Who would believe you …"
"Hmph, you only know how to say nice things. Isn't it because you want us commoners to be cannon fodder? You want us to send ourselves to our deaths? We won't be foolish enough to be used by you!"
"Doesn't your army want to protect us? "What right do you have to make us fight together with you …"
"We just escaped, and now you want us to die!? Your Crimson Dragon Army is truly inhumane! "
"..."
Bai Yuhao's words, on the other hand, infuriated the grievances of these citizens of the Meng City, and their various complaints and even vulgar insults rang in their ears, because when they had withdrawn their troops, the Meng City's Crimson Dragon Army had already turned into a mess, and did not take responsibility for protecting the citizens as a means of escape. As a result, these citizens who had just escaped from the water fire were also resentful, and had already started to distrust the Crimson Dragon Army.
Bai Yuhao had also expected the citizens of Meng City to have such a reaction, so he was still very calm. However, it wasn't easy to persuade these commoners, but there wasn't enough time, so it seemed like they could only use fierce medicine.
"Have you said enough?" Bai Yuhao suddenly opened his eyes and shouted loudly.
When the people of Meng City saw this, they were immediately frightened, and immediately shut their mouths, immediately becoming quiet.
"That's right, the Crimson Dragon Army really did do something wrong this time, but do you think that this is the time to look for responsibility? If the Crimson Dragon Army that can protect you in the end is annihilated, these complaints will be your final complaints! So, if you don't want to die, don't complain anymore. Think about the families that are still alive next to you, think about your future. Your battle isn't for the Scarlet Dragon Army, nor is it for Holy Dragon Kingdom. If you die but your wife, your mother, and your children survive, then you will feel lucky. At the very least, you will be able to see them continue to live on the path to the Yellow Springs … " Bai Yuhao was like an orator, every sentence was like a hammer that struck the hearts of the citizens of Meng City, making them understand that their current situation wasn't something they could only complain about, they could only wait, they could completely survive on their own.
