Chapter 252
Murong Qiuhan ordered the troops to rest in He Gou Town.
Supplies were brought from the rear and distributed to the townspeople.
Tiger-Chasing handled funeral arrangements for families victimized by Eastern Wilderness cultivators, burying their dead properly.
Years of warfare had left people struggling. Without Qu Ming’s protection, bandit groups would’ve ransacked the town long ago.
Eastern Wilderness forces always accused Tiger-Chasing of being barbaric marauders who burned everything in their path.
Now the truth emerged – those accusations were false projections. The real villains were Eastern Wilderness troops themselves.
Tiger-Chasing forces maintained strict discipline and orderly conduct.
They camped outside town boundaries, avoiding civilian disturbance unless urgent matters arose.
Through these actions, the people clearly recognized who truly protected them. Tiger-Chasing’s grassroots support grew silently, paving their future control of the southwest.
