Wang Hao stepped forward and shouted loudly, "Could everyone please be quiet and listen to me for a moment!?"
Hearing this, the crowd instantly fell silent, and everyone turned to look at Wang Hao.
Wang Hao nodded in satisfaction. His self-directed rescue act had not been in vain; at the very least, it had earned him the initial respect of these veterans.
"Ahem," Wang Hao coughed lightly. "We had agreed that once we rescued everyone, we would all go our separate ways. Whether you choose to stay or leave is up to you, and I will certainly not stop you. However, I would like to try to persuade you all to stay, even if it's just one person. Because right now, I really need people."
Upon hearing this, some of the old soldiers' faces showed signs of struggle. In the past, they would not have considered anything and would have immediately rejected Wang Hao's invitation.
But after Wang Hao had proactively rescued their families, they felt indebted to him.
