They thought they were summoned to the meeting to prepare for a deadly battle with the enemy, but they did not expect that they were being asked to evacuate quietly.

With this withdrawal, Yanmen Pass will be lost, their family members will be destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of people will be in misfortune.

The past grievances between the two sides destined that the enemy would never be able to commit any crime.

Several border army officers wiped the sweat from their faces and shouted to Shen Qiye:

"Shuai Shen! We can't evacuate!"

"We have been fighting with the Xiang people and the Wolf people for more than ten years, with dozens of large and small battles."

"They killed many of our brothers and sisters, and we also killed many of their companions."

"We don't have a feud, but we still want to strangle each other to death."

"If we evacuate, all the guards at Yanmen Pass will be killed, our family members will also suffer, and the lives of our people will be in ruins."

These words expressed the feelings of the backbone of the border army, and they all advised against evacuation.

Compared to Shen family generals such as Dong Lang and Nan Ying, the backbone of the border army who have been stationed at Yanmen Pass all year round have already settled down.

They have wives, children and many relatives.

What will happen to my wife and children once they withdraw?

What about the other family members?

Following the evacuation together would not only require a lot of effort, but also not enough time.

If they didn't evacuate together, they wouldn't be able to leave their blood relatives behind.

Shen Qiye thought of the 300,000 strong enemies outside, of the tens of thousands of people in his own hands, and of the temptations of Tianxi Province and Mingjiang.

He gave up the last trace of hesitation.

He exhaled: "I have decided to evacuate!"

Many backbones of the border army took a step forward and shouted with all their strength:

"Shuai Shen, we cannot evacuate! We would rather fight to the death than evacuate!"

"We have guarded Yanmen Pass for so many years and have never been breached by the enemy. We cannot surrender today."

"As long as we are alive, we will fight to the last soldier."

"Besides, if we evacuate, what will happen to our family?

What should the people of Yanmen Pass do?"

"Haba and the others come in and slap even wild dogs twice. They will definitely attack their families and people."
