On the other side, seeing Ke Ze'ra's silence, Ye Cangtian spoke again, "Furthermore, I must warn you, if you defect to the Bright Hall or continue to support the Ninja Division.
The Dark Association will spare no effort to destroy you!"
Hiss!
Seeing the intense killing intent flashing in Poxiao's eyes, Ke Ze'ra gasped.
He understood that the other party was not joking, and with Poxiao's strength, doing so was not difficult!
"Then, let the Caesar Mercenary Group stay stationed for a few more days."
"But it's not good to keep stationed like this, there should be a deadline..."
Ke Ze'ra hesitated for a long time before stammering.
He was truly at a loss. If there were any other options, he would not agree to the Caesar Mercenary Group continuing their stationing.
So, to avoid any accidents, he could only agree.
"Heh heh, don't force yourself. We'll withdraw now!"
"How ridiculous! Our Caesar Mercenary Group risked our lives to protect your foundation, yet we can't even earn a shred of your trust and gratitude!"
"Since that's the case, let's part ways. We'll go our separate ways!"
Seeing the unconcealed reluctance on the other party's face, Ye Cangtian sneered, then called Miller and ordered him to prepare the army for departure!
He had already decided that if Ke Ze'ra was truly unappreciative, he would be left to fend for himself.
He could withdraw his men and continue to disrupt Hasal's plan.
"No, no, no!"
As Miller gave the order, all the men of the Caesar Mercenary Group put down their tasks and began to assemble. Ke Ze'ra instantly became anxious.
He dared not gamble! Once he lost, he would be damned forever!
He quickly went before Ye Cangtian and bowed three times in succession, saying, "Lord Poxiao, I was wrong. I judged a noble person with a petty mind. Please don't leave! Give me a chance to repent!"
"How ridiculous! You were eager for us to leave just now, and now you want us to stay. What do you take the Dark Association and the Caesar Mercenary Group for!"
Ye Cangtian glanced at him and questioned coldly.
"Don't be agitated, don't be agitated!"
"You are all saviors of the Rattlesnake Mercenary Group, selfless and full of justice. I was blind and misunderstood you!"
"I apologize to you here."
Seeing Ke Ze'ra's nervous apology, Ye Cangtian's expression softened slightly. He snorted and said, "Only this once!"
"Thank you, thank you for your magnanimity."
Looking at Ke Ze'ra before him, Ye Cangtian felt a sense of disgust subtly arise in his heart.
Ke Ze'ra was one to burn his bridges after crossing them, was fickle, and now could humble himself. Such a person was not good in any way.
He wondered if keeping Ke Ze'ra would be a wrong decision.
Would the situation improve if he eliminated him and installed a puppet instead?
After a moment of hesitation, Ye Cangtian did not make a final decision. His current cooperation with Ke Ze'ra was only temporary.
In less than two days, all this would pass. It wouldn't hurt to keep Ke Ze'ra around. While it was true that people like him were hard to reform, precisely because of this, it would be difficult for him to defect to the Dark Association.
With this thought, Ye Cangtian slowly said, "Never mind, I'll tell you. Once the victor is decided in the Eastern Ying region, I will withdraw the Caesar Mercenary Group."
"Ah?"
"Poxiao, are you worried that I will continue to support the Ninja Division?"
Ke Ze'ra was slightly stunned, his expression somewhat gloomy, but he dared not show it.
It had already been officially announced on the battle network. Even if he dispatched troops to support them now, he would likely be considered a treacherous enemy by the Ninja Division.
He wouldn't do something that was thankless and difficult.
"Think whatever you want, it doesn't matter."
"For someone like you who burns bridges, my cooperation with you is limited to this one time."
"Also, I might have to leave for a while immediately!"
Ye Cangtian glared at him and said unhappily.
Now that he vaguely suspected the movements of the Tamu Mercenary Group, he was truly worried about the situation on Rehaton's side.
Compared to Ke Ze'ra, Rehaton was relatively straightforward and had better character.
Furthermore, when they had left before, various factions had gained much better favor with China and would not easily invade again, even willing to establish a certain level of cooperation with China.
Therefore, if the Alliance could not hold on, Ye Cangtian would not stand idly by and would provide some support.
Damn! What a swagger! Wait until the Lightning Mercenary Group overcomes its crisis, and you'll be nothing!
On the other side, watching Ye Cangtian's receding back, Ke Ze'ra gnashed his teeth inwardly.
Poxiao not only had a terrible attitude but also forced him to act subservient, almost exploding his lungs.
He now only hoped that the battle in Eastern Ying would end soon, and Poxiao would quickly take the Caesar Mercenary Group away from Ten Thousand Snake Island.
Returning to the tent.
Ye Cangtian took out his phone and directly dialed an unfamiliar number.
"Mr. Ye, long time no see. How are you today?"
Soon, Rehaton's voice came through the phone.
Although it was just a perfunctory greeting, it made Ye Cangtian feel much better, at least much better than Ke Ze'ra.
"I'm doing quite well here. As for you, you might be in trouble."
"What's the situation?"
As Ye Cangtian's voice came through, Rehaton's anxious voice immediately came from the phone.
Whether it was China's Hidden Group or the mysterious Death Squad, their ability to gather information was definitely much stronger than the Alliance's.
So when trouble was mentioned, Rehaton was deeply convinced.
"I just received intelligence that Hasal and the Tamu Legion in the sea area of Ten Thousand Snake Island have retreated."
"Based on my analysis, it's unlikely they returned directly to the Bright Hall. They are very likely heading towards the Alliance, so I'm specifically informing you, hoping you'll be prepared."
Ye Cangtian did not hide anything and said slowly, explaining the general strength and combat power of the Tamu Mercenary Group.
Rehaton fell silent for a moment.
The Alliance had already been formed, and various factions had dispatched troops to guard the Hell Gate Archipelago.
Therefore, he was confident facing one or two legions of the Tamu Mercenary Group, but when Hasal was mentioned, he felt uneasy.
That was a Earth-level expert!
If he were to carry out assassinations, few people in the Alliance could escape his deadly grasp.
Thinking of this, Rehaton said, "Mr. Ye, everything else is negotiable, but Hasal is too difficult to deal with..."
"That's right, Hasal is indeed not someone you can deal with."
"However, as the commander, he usually wouldn't act easily."
"I'll give you two suggestions!"
Ye Cangtian said slowly. Earth-level experts were indeed difficult to deal with, but it did not mean there were no ways to cope.
Otherwise, how could there be so many small and medium-sized forces? They would have already been subjugated by Earth-level experts.
"Mr. Ye, please tell me."
Rehaton's voice came again, and Ye Cangtian did not hold back, speaking directly.
Under normal circumstances, Hasal would not act unless he was completely angered.
Therefore, to avoid provoking Hasal, the Alliance should try not to make any major moves. Even if they did, they could not inflict heavy losses on the Tamu Mercenary Group.
Simply put, it was about delaying.
In this way, if the Bright Hall could not achieve victory for a long time, they might retreat.
In addition, to avoid Hasal resorting to assassination, more command posts should be set up to confuse the enemy.
The real command posts, however, must be extremely secretive, and the fewer people who knew, the better. This way, even if Hasal captured one or two informants, he wouldn't be able to find the location of the command posts.
Listening to Ye Cangtian's words, Rehaton was instantly enlightened and repeatedly nodded in thanks.
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and said, "If you are truly pushed to a desperate situation by Hasal, you can contact me in advance, and I will rush over as soon as possible."
Ye Cangtian gave the other party a reassurance, then gave a few more instructions before hanging up the phone.
"Keep fighting. Once this ordeal is over, the Alliance will be truly safe and will have more time for development..."
Ye Cangtian mused inwardly.
He understood very well that the Bright Hall would not give up easily. Only by making even Earth-level experts helpless would it dampen the ambition of the Bright Hall.
