As the retreating villagers of Yanshan Village continued to retreat, some began to shout. After all, being suppressed and beaten like this was truly frustrating, and some hot-blooded young men certainly couldn't stand it.
The old man who had previously sniped Jiang Yuan said, "If they hadn't infiltrated the village and attacked us from both sides, how could we have been defeated so quickly!"
