The timely arrival of the Southern Expedition Army, coupled with the near-wholesale slaughter by Long Jiuzun and Yue Minzhi, finally resolved the crisis at Fandi Port by daybreak.
The supply ship that Long Jiuzun and others were on and the sea and air ship that Yue Jinghua and others took arrived almost simultaneously, quickly attracting a crowd of civilians.
Long Jiuzun thought that the civilians had come to welcome the Southern Expedition Army, but when Shalman led Yu Dan by the hand off the ship, the fishermen let out an ear-splitting cheer.
In the simple hearts of the fishermen, they didn't know what the Southern Expedition Army was; they only knew that a team of soldiers had risked their lives to rescue a common fisherman's child, turning their sincere gratitude into waves of sound, one after the other.
A shadow briefly flitted across Long Jiuzun's eyes, but he quickly smiled and strode toward Sea Defense Army Captain Ya Lei.
