Chapter 164: Change
After all, the old, weak, and the disabled are also a human life, and Wei Yang is really ruthless.
Their loyalty to themselves is a little higher than that of the young slaves.
But the current situation is special, and they don't know if they can all retreat safely and arrive in Cloud City!
When Wei Yang's words came out, there was silence in the inner courtyard.
In the outer courtyard, from time to time, someone screamed because they were invincible to the land beasts.
You don't even need to look at it to know that there are heavy casualties in the outer courtyard at this moment.
Those present knew that they could not resist the tide of land beasts this time.
Every moment of hesitation was also exchanged for the lives of the people in the outer courtyard.
When everyone was still hesitating, Aunt Kaya, who was in charge of cooking on weekdays, was the first to express her attitude.
"Let's go, I'll stay! I can hold you up for as long as I can! The master helped me to avenge my son, and that was enough! ”
Gerald's betrayal killed Aunt Kaya's son.
In the critical moment, Aunt Kaya was the first to make a choice and played a certain leading role.
There were forty-three who met the qualifications to stay behind, and more than 20 of them resolutely made a choice under the leadership of Aunt Kaya.
Those who did not want to stay in the remaining ten or so spoke out of pity.
"Please, take me away! I can do anything! ”
"The host took me away! Take me away! I don't want to stay here, I'm a great ironworker, Valen knows! ”
Although the iron-striking technique is good, it is the leg and foot injury in the Gerrard incident.
Looking at these people, Wei Yang couldn't be more ruthless.
"Well, if you want to follow, follow yourself, and bring your weapons! I'll just tell you, no matter what happens on the road, the procession can't stop! ”
This is the case with these people, who stay on the farm and wait for death, but when they retreat, they are also dead because of their inconvenient legs.
Wei Yang spoke here, and Taylor on the side kindly suggested to him. "They must not be allowed to slow down the speed of the march, and they should give up or give up at the critical moment."
Otherwise, it will be those young and strong slaves who are still useful.
Taylor saw that even though Wei Yang had made an epic punishment of a thousand cuts, he was still too merciful after all.
If he had been asked to do this, Taylor wouldn't have consulted them.
Those who go along prosper and those who rebel perish, this is a simple truth.
Taylor's proposal Wei Yang knew that Wei Yang could be ruthless in dealing with the betrayer, but these people were loyal to him after all.
After answering, Wei Yang asked people to keep some of the knives.
They can use these weapons to kill themselves, or they can choose to stay on the ground.
It's also death, which can be regarded as giving them the right to choose.
Taylor calculated that, following the speed of their rapid march, they would be in Cloudsdale by dawn the next day.
As the news came out, the personnel of the outer courtyard began to retreat to the inner courtyard, and all the personnel also took action.
Considering that the physical exertion of the journey was extremely great, some dry cakes prepared by the women and children were also distributed.
Looking at the people left behind, Wei Yang sighed. "There are still a few jars of wine in the storeroom, which I have left for you."
There are too many things to take away, so it is better to give them directly.
Taylor's side saw that Wei Yang was ready, nodded at Garcia, and the army began to retreat directly from the small gate of the inner courtyard.
Both the land beast tide and the sea beast tide have concentrated on the relationship between Yunmeng City, and although they have cleaned up a lot along the way, it is enough to ensure the speed of the march.
At the moment when people flee and retreat, they become consumables.
It was only two hours after leaving the farm, and in order to protect the more than ten old and weak people who had followed all the way, nearly thirty people had already been reduced.
In addition to more than a dozen young slaves, two Grim Reaper mercenaries, and one was Emerson who escaped from the quarry with him.
As a result, Wei Yang also blamed himself.
If you hadn't brought those who had forcibly followed, maybe these twenty or so people would have survived.
The damned are dead, and it's dragging down those who should be alive.
Wei Yang finally understood why Taylor suggested so much to himself before leaving.
Look at the zero attrition of personnel of the Sixth Army, and it will be clear!
The people of the Reaper Mercenary Legion are all brothers who have fought alongside Sally, but his choice has cost him two.
Wei Yang is because of a few people who would have died, and he still owes the two brothers of Sally!
It's also human life, and it's Wei Yang's momentary mercy that has harmed more people.
"The wounded stay on their own, don't drag down the march any longer! I don't want more innocents to be affected! ”
Wei Yang took advantage of the brief respite of the retreating army to issue a new order.
Sally and the others were a little surprised when they heard that Wei Yang had finally made this kind of decision, but they also understood.
The price of change is always a bit big.
In the few hours of fleeing, not only Wei Yang understood this principle, but everyone else also understood it.
When Wei Yang gave such an order, the atmosphere in the team was unusually gloomy.
Nicholas, who had an injured leg, was the first to break away from the support of Valen, and sat down by the tree. "I'm a damn person, I'm tired of running, I'll stay."
To be able to escape from the quarry, or even to live a good life on the farm these days, these are enough.
Rather than continuing to hold on, it is better to stay here, and death can be regarded as a little more comfortable.
With this example of Nicholas, a few more of the team were too seriously injured to stay.
Seeing this, Valen patted Nicholas' hand and put a dry biscuit in his pocket into Nicholas's hand.
Those who remain are waiting to die, and even if they are on the road, they can't go hungry.
"Brother......" Valen didn't say much, and went straight to the front of the group.
Wei Yang saw that there was still someone who should have stayed, but he was trying to get through the trick, so he didn't hesitate anything, waved his hand to Oliver beside him, and gave an order. "Deal with him!"
Keeping the badly wounded to follow them will only attract more of the Wandering Sea and Land Beasts to their blood.
It was they who gave them the opportunity to stay on their own, but they did not give face.
Wei Yang had already done his duty, and he couldn't let any of them drag down the others.
They are also loyal to him, and sometimes they need to make a choice to give up a small part in order to save the majority.
If you are willing to give up, you will get if you are willing to give up.
While the authority is great, the responsibility on the shoulders is also greater.
Wei Yang knew that he had really changed at this moment, and he had become a person he never thought he would become.
