The two civilians cried and shouted, their faces covered in tears.
Ye Feng suddenly laughed and deliberately put on a contemptuous look, saying, "Look at your attitude! Do you think I asked you to lead the way so you could die for nothing? Get up from the ground, turn around, and see what's in front of you!"
The two civilians shakily got up from the ground and turned around.
Then they saw the infantry corps!
Two hundred infantrymen stood ramrod straight, each with a serious expression, their fully automatic blasting rifles gleaming in the sunlight!
"See that? This is the legion of our Silla City! This legion will protect the safety of our Silla City. No matter what kind of danger comes, whether it is a monster or something else, this legion will rush to the front without hesitation and keep all dangers and enemies out of the defensive line!"
"Look at them, and then look at yourself! Don't you feel ashamed? They are fighting for you, to protect everyone living on this land. Don't you two feel ashamed?!"
Night Wind's words made the two commoners blush and lower their heads deeply.
It was at this time that those influential commoners arrived.
These so-called influential commoners were actually people who had performed well in Silla City and had been commended many times.
Because of their outstanding performance, some of them have been selected by Rowling to be new officials, but they have not yet officially taken office.
Moreover, because they had received numerous awards, they had become quite well-known in their territory, and almost everyone in Silla City knew them.
At this moment, all of these dozens of people came before Ye Feng and bowed respectfully to him.
"Do you know what happened?" Night Wind asked.
One of them took a deep breath and mustered his courage to answer, "Lord City Lord, we have indeed heard that the Crimson-Tailed Beast that destroyed Luo Yun City has reappeared, and it is not far from our Xinluo City. Many people are now talking privately that our Xinluo City will also be destroyed by the Crimson-Tailed Beast's attack, just like Luo Yun City."
Another person chimed in, "That's why many people have wavered, especially the group that Lady Rowling bought from Jiangxia City. They've even made preparations to escape."
With so many people present, everyone thought that Ye Feng would be angry and furious after hearing these words.
However, it didn't happen.
Ye Feng's expression remained calm, even with a slight smile on his face.
“If they run away now, they will regret it for the rest of their lives,” Night Wind said.
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, the commoners all wore expressions of confusion, unsure of what he meant.
Ye Feng did not immediately explain, but instead gave the order to the infantry corps soldiers: "Report your numbers!"
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
"Four!"
...
One hundred and ninety-eight!
"One hundred and ninety-nine!"
"two hundred!"
After all two hundred soldiers of the legion had finished counting off, they stood tall and proud, facing the sample, their spirits high.
Faced with the impending danger, they were not afraid or terrified; on the contrary, they were full of fighting spirit and even eager to try!
"Look, this is our new infantry corps of Silla City!"
Night Wind chuckled and continued, "With such a legion protecting our homeland, I really don't understand what those people are afraid of. I'm ashamed for them!"
"And our soldiers will soon be going to annihilate those Red-tailed Beasts. Our soldiers are fighting to protect everyone living in this territory, but what about them? They are preparing to run away out of fear and dread. What a disgrace!"
"You can leave now. Go back and tell those people that from now on, the gates of Silla City are wide open, and no one will stop you. Anyone who wants to escape can escape. But anyone who escapes will never be able to return to Silla City. This city does not welcome deserters and cowards!"
The dozens of civilians looked at each other in disbelief, their eyes filled with shock.
"Now, let's go!"
With a loud shout, Ye Feng took the lead, mounted his horse, and headed into the depths of the Death Mountains.
Luo Lin, Zijing, Chen He, Jiang Wei, and Xu Ping'an immediately followed Ye Feng, and a hundred-man guard team also came along. The two-hundred-man new-style infantry legion naturally began its rapid march!
Those two civilians, who had been terrified by the Crimson-Tailed Beast, were no longer afraid, perhaps influenced by Ye Feng's words or perhaps because the new infantry legion had given them confidence.
However, their footwork was ultimately no match for that of martial artists or soldiers.
So Chen He picked them up, one in each hand, and carried them along, so as not to slow down the march!
About an hour later, Ye Feng led his legion to a mountain valley in the Death Mountains.
Just as they arrived, a red-tailed beast leaped down from the treetops and pounced on the most conspicuous Night Wind.
"From now on, fire freely! Until the last Crimson-Tailed Beast is destroyed!" Night Wind commanded.
In that instant, hundreds of crimson streaks of light burst forth from the gun barrels, shooting towards the Crimson-Tailed Beast in the air.
Although most of the explosive bullets missed their mark, a small number of them did hit the Crimson-Tailed Beast.
In the blink of an eye, the fifth-rank Crimson-tailed Beast was riddled with holes and fell to the ground with a thud.
This seemed to be a signal that something was about to happen, as more and more Crimson-tailed Beasts emerged from the mountains and rushed towards them, their red figures resembling a crimson tide.
More than 800 Crimson-tailed Beasts are not many compared to the Crimson-tailed Beasts that destroyed Luo Yun City.
However, compared to the infantry legions of Silla Castle, there were many more.
After all, the infantry corps only had two hundred men in total.
In other words, on average, each soldier must eliminate four or more Red-tailed Beasts in order to win this battle!
But these infantry corps were not afraid. They roared and fired, and bursts of flaming bullets kept shooting out of their guns.
Two hundred fully automatic explosive rifles, each capable of firing three explosive bullets in a single breath.
In one breath, that's a total of six hundred explosive bullets!
A dense barrage of explosive bullets, like a meteor shower, hurtled towards the tidal wave of Crimson-Tailed Beasts, exploding with deafening bangs.
Clusters of fire suddenly appeared and disappeared, accompanied by a deafening roar, making the air feel scorching!
Even the trees in the Death Mountains were set ablaze!
