The soldiers all became excited at once, suddenly having acquired so many weapons—a good turn of events for them as they could soon recover their original strength.
Of course, they held Ji Yang in awe. A man with such immense power—should someone like him lead, it would indeed be a boon for them.
Now, no one was unwilling to follow Ji Yang's commands.
Ji Yang had not expected these men to have such thoughts and called Le Qin over, "Le Qin, how many people know about your force, or rather, how many people know you are part of an anti-government armed group?"
Le Qin replied, "My brother was the leader of this army and died in a conflict. I took over his position as leader, but actually, all of us are just villagers. At first, it was only my brother who was involved, and I'm not exactly clear on the details; we're just leading everyone in search of survival. You wouldn't believe the chaos around here, without the power to protect oneself, it's impossible."
