As soon as Peng Yue had spoken, the brothers standing by his side could hardly bear it.
"Is this all the people we have now, to be sent out to exchange for equipment with the company?"
But if they did this, wouldn't they have no place left to replenish their forces if conflicts arose with other powers in the future?
Yet, seeing the resolute look on their elder brother's face, none of the brothers dared to speak up.
Everyone knew why he was doing this.
He was beyond persuasion.
However, it was Big Beard who raised an objection.
Shaking his large head, he said amidst the astonished gazes of the others, "Boss Peng, we don't want slaves; these people must volunteer to go to the safe zone."
"Who says they aren't volunteering?"
Peng Yue's face bore a self-mocking smile, then he continued, "They only have two choices."
"Either wait here to die with me or, follow your people back to the safe zone where they might still have a chance to live."
