"Yan, Yan Hu, you guys..."
Ye Yu Wan looked at Yan Hu incredulously. She knew that Yan Hu had led the Dragon Flame Mercenary Group. Seeing Yan Hu's expression at this moment, she suddenly understood that what Jiang Chen said was true!
"The biggest 'leaving someone to die' decision was made by me!"
Jiang Chen spoke again, with a deep tone: "It was not long after Dragon Flame was established when we attacked a Gene Organization base. At that time, most of us were at the Heavenly Level or Earthly Level."
"During that operation, due to inaccurate intelligence, we stormed into the Gene Organization's base and found enemies far beyond our expectations. We fought bloodily for an entire night, and as dawn approached, the enemy still wasn't defeated."
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Chen's eyes reddened: "Later, our reinforcements arrived, but it was just Hu Zi leading a team of heavy gunners. We were all entangled with the enemy, unable to let the heavy gunners unleash their firepower..."
"At that moment, a team member rushed to my side, shouting loudly, 'Young Master, you leave. You're an Innate Grandmaster, they can't hold you back. Leave and let Brother Hu shoot. Even if we die, we must destroy this place and drag these bastards down with us!'"
"At that moment!"
Jiang Chen closed his eyes, tears streaming down: "I didn't want to leave, I truly didn't, Yu Wan. At that time, I had the same thought as you, to lead the brothers away together."
"But, it couldn't be!"
"If we retreated together, it would have been impossible. The enemy had completely entangled us. In the end, some team members pulled out grenades and perished with the enemy."
"All the participating team members clung to the enemy, allowing themselves to be attacked, shouting at me to leave. I... I left. You may think I was disloyal, but if I had stayed, it would have just been one more death!"
"I flew into the sky and gave a command even crueler than 'leaving someone to die'—Open fire! I ordered Hu Zi and the others to open fire on those enemies and the brothers holding them!"
Ye Yu Wan and the others fell silent, their minds filled with the brutal scene of that time.
"Hu Zi and the others opened fire, shooting with tears in their eyes!"
Jiang Chen opened his eyes, bloodshot: "After the battle, we cleaned up the battlefield and saw the bodies of our brothers. They..."
Jiang Chen suddenly choked up: "Many of them faced death with a smile, letting us know they didn't blame us at all, but we blamed ourselves. I blamed myself for not being strong enough to turn the tide at that time!"
"But!"
Jiang Chen looked up at Ye Yu Wan, speaking solemnly: "This is the battlefield! On the battlefield, not everything goes the way you want. There are countless uncertainties, endless dissatisfaction, and so many helpless situations!"
"For the victory of the battle, we need to make some sacrifices. This is also the reason I don't want the three of you on the battlefield. I have selfish motives; I don't want you to encounter situations where sacrifice is unavoidable. I'd rather fight and struggle with your share as well than see you on the battlefield!"
"The brothers all understood this; no one had complaints. But when you said you wanted to go to the battlefield, I hesitated. I was conflicted, but in the end, I couldn't refuse!"
Tears flowed from Ye Jingyi's eyes. She embraced Jiang Chen, tears uncontrollably streaming as she lay on his shoulder.
At this moment, the three women could clearly feel the pain and conflict in Jiang Chen's heart.
On one side, there was the woman he loved, and on the other, brothers fighting bloodily on the battlefield. If Ye Jingyi and the other two hadn't brought it up, no one would have said anything. But since they did, how would the battlefield brothers view Jiang Chen if he refused?
The Dragon Flame brothers might not think much of it, but what about others?
"I won't stop you from going to the battlefield. Instead, I'll feel proud and honored for you, but there's something you need to know!"
Jiang Chen gently pushed away Ye Jingyi, wiping her tears with his hand: "If any of you three die on that Spatial Battlefield, I won't care about the so-called big picture anymore. I will directly storm the enemy's base with all my might, kill! Kill until the moment of my death!"
Long Tianze and the others opened their mouths but couldn't utter a word.
As a battlefield commander, Jiang Chen absolutely shouldn't act so impulsively, yet they couldn't ask him not to. They knew well the place Ye Jingyi and the other two held in Jiang Chen's heart.
If any of the three women actually died on that battlefield, not only Jiang Chen but all the Dragon Flame brothers might go berserk.
If they couldn't even protect their own women, their Little Lady, how could they talk about protecting Yuan Star?
"Jiang Chen, you can't be impulsive. You're the battlefield commander; you can't..."
Ye Jingyi cupped Jiang Chen's face, shaking her head: "We won't go to the battlefield! We're not going! We can't be without you!"
"Yes! We're not going!"
"We're not going to the battlefield! Don't do anything reckless!"
Gong Lin and Ye Yu Wan hurriedly chimed in.
With Jiang Chen's words, they weighed the pros and cons. If they went to the battlefield, it would only add three early-stage Saint Realm warriors at best, but their presence would stir too many people.
First, although Jiang Chen appeared ruthless, he would definitely pay attention to the group the three women were in. Secondly, the Dragon Flame brothers couldn't ignore them, nor could people from other factions.
In this way, their presence on the battlefield could disturb the entire allied side. They couldn't let their own antics cause internal chaos!
Sighs of relief sounded in the living room.
Long Tianze, A'erfa, Yan Hu, and others all breathed a sigh of relief.
Those who had been to battle knew well; the presence of Ye Jingyi and the other two would more likely harm than help. But they didn't know how to refuse.
Now that the women had realized this on their own, it couldn't be better!
"Good! You won't go to the battlefield, but don't think you'll take it easy either!"
Jiang Chen finally relaxed. Ever since Ye Jingyi and the other two had expressed their desire to go to the battlefield, he had been on edge: "You will be responsible for the overall arrangements and work coordination of the entire alliance!"
Patting Ye Jingyi's hair, Jiang Chen looked at the three women with a slightly proud expression: "Last time, I was absent for a year, and what you did shocked me. I realized I'm best suited for the front lines, while you are the strategic generals who scheme and plan."
"If my leadership relies on personal charisma, you are the ones with complete wisdom, more suited to command from the rear and oversee the whole picture!"
Ye Jingyi and the other two smiled, and Long Tianze and others nodded in agreement. What the three women had done recently had indeed earned everyone's admiration!
