“Of course. You know how big Ultralisks are, right? I won’t be able to finish the meat on my own, so sharing is no big deal. I’ll also allow you to keep a few of your most trusted subordinates by your side. You can share some of the meat allocated to you with them.” Jiang Fei’s final promise crushed the line of defense in the leaders’ hearts. There were only a few who were truly loyal to them. Most were just depending on them to survive, so there was no loyalty involved. As long as Jiang Fei opened recruitment, most of their troops would probably hop over. So, it did not really matter if they directly handed their troops over to him.

The temptation of Ultralisk meat was so big that most of the leaders were hooked. However, their pride and dignity restrained them from standing up and agreeing.

“Sir, if you can really provide us with Ultralisk meat on a regular basis, I, Kaa’lna, am willing to be loyal to you!” At this time, Kaa’lna naturally took the lead. She was the one who brought up the entire proposal anyway.

“Me too, sir! I’m willing to be loyal to you!”

“Me too!”

“And I!”

…

After someone took the lead, the Dhiras leaders started to respond one after another. Suddenly, more than ten leaders had gotten down on one knee in front of Jiang Fei to express their willingness. However, there were still two leaders who did not budge. They were still sitting on their chairs, looking unhappy and clearly struggling internally.

These two were the most powerful among the Dhiras leaders. They were unwilling to let go of their military forces as so much time and effort had been spent building them. However, they did not dare to get up and leave, as they were afraid that Jiang Fei would hate them for this.

“What now…” The two leaders exchanged looks.

“Okay, get up, everyone. Report to Sarila later, then get ready to move over here with your troops.” Jiang Fei nodded, completely ignoring the two unwilling leaders.

Of course, Jiang Fei welcomed the loyalty of these leaders, but he would not force anyone. After all, if these leaders joined unwillingly, he would not be able to achieve the desired outcome. He planned to build up his army in Tallgeese. If he took in those who were not genuinely loyal to him, they would end up betraying him.

Following that, Jiang Fei had a chat with the Dhiras leaders who were willing to join him. He made it clear to them that Sarila was his representative. In the future, she would be the one managing all the military affairs. If they went against her orders, it would be equivalent to disobeying his orders.

Although the leaders were very reluctant to accept this, Sarila still became Jiang Fei’s second-in-command because she had his support. At the same time, Kaa’lna had also risen in status as she played a big part in making the whole thing happen.

In actuality, Jiang Fei chose Sarila to manage the army not only because her values were similar to his, but also because his style then was based on how the ancient emperors used to rule.
