The soldiers who came to the battlefield were not only Lisa's soldiers but also Jennej's soldiers.
Hearing Jennie's berated made them feel ashamed. These few days, they were fighting whilst feeling fear because the enemy was stronger than them.
They had forgotten the time when they were still weak and they had to face enemies far stronger than them under Jayn's lead.
They didn't dare to answer Jennie right away because this was a serious question.
If they stay, they might lose their life, but if they go home, they could retain their life, despite the shame they would feel for abandoning their comrade.
"I will stay!" the yell from one person made the others turn their head including Jennie and Jackson.
The one who answered the first was Yabei, the commander of the first squad in Jennie's army.
He ignored the stare from the other soldiers as he stared at Jennie with unwavering determination.
"I have followed Miss Jennie for years through many trials. Even during the time the group is still small, we still fight against stronger foes. If it's with you, I believe we can win."
Jennie smiled at Yabei's answer. Yabei was one of the people who had been with her ever since the first time she joined the army.
The two of them belonged in the same group of five people and eventually, he followed after her until now, becoming one of the people she trusted.
"I will follow you too," from behind, Jimin yelled, "It's only due to following your army did I can achieve this far, so I will follow you until the end."
Although at first Jimin only believed that this was Jayn's army, he knew that Jennie was making the strategy.
Besides, her calm when she was talking rashly in front of the soldiers was not a fake. He was certain that she had done this before.
Seeing her brother say it loudly, Rosé smiled slightly. This was the first time even for her to seen Jennie saying rude words.
Normally, she rarely talked and even if she did, it would only be small talk and all.
Raising her head, she yelled, "The fight is still not over yet, how can I go home when my best friend is staying here and fighting in our stead?"
Jennie looked towards Rosé and smiled.
Although their distance was far away, she was sure that Rosé could see her and know that she was looking at her.
The voice of a girl made the other soldiers stand forward.
If even a girl dared to stand up and fight against that mysteriously strong prince, why couldn't they?
They have been fighting for almost their entire life and in the past, they too have encountered strong opponents, but they survived in the end.
"I have been following General Lisa for my entire life, so I will not back down when we come across a strong opponent."
"Even if General Lisa is not here, I will not back down. The harsh training is annoying, so I will fight and show that training demon my result of hard work!"
"I will not give up."
"I believe we could win. Strategist Jennie will surely think of a way to settle the problem."
After one person stood up, the other followed suit. They no longer cared about their face as they openly expressed their thoughts.
Just like a chain reaction, they yelled their determination to go forward with the battle.
"She is amazing," just a single speech and she completely changed the entire atmosphere.
No matter how many times Jackson spoke previously, they still didn't want to hear him.
Shu nodded his head and decided to bluntly say, "Unlike you, Young Master."
"...You don't have to remind me."
Even without Shu telling him, Jackson already knew that he was unsuitable to calm the crowd down.
Somehow, he felt that he was really useless as a prince because all he knew was how to trade as a merchant.
However, seeing the determination that the soldiers showed and Jennie's calm face, he came to believe that tomorrow they would be alright.
The battle would end in their win.
"She did it again," Yeji smiled slightly.
Truthfully, she wanted to yell that she would stay too, but she was a hidden guard, so she couldn't do that.
Seeing how the soldiers attentively tried to answer Jennie, she remembered her experience years ago.
When they were only a small squad against an army who has almost ten times more than their number, she too spoke similar words.
She encouraged them and fulfilled her promise, despite how hard the battle was.
Seeing the soldiers responding to her with enthusiasm, Jennie smiled.
She raised her hand and the speaking ceased.
"Those who want to go can go now. No one would hinder you," Jennie said in a calm tone.
The soldiers didn't bother looking at each other as they stared at Jennie.
Not a single of them has any intention to go and leave the army. They go to the battle together, so they would return together.
"Since you've made the decision, rest well tonight because tomorrow will be a brutal fight," Jennie waved her hand.
"YES!" the soldiers answered her loudly before they turned back and dispersed.
They would prepare themselves fully for the battle that will unfold tomorrow.
Jennie turned to Jackson, "Can you gather the leader? In an hour, I will tell them the plan for tomorrow's battle."
"Sure, but before that, you need to eat first," Jackson reminded Jennie.
The entire time from evening to night, she was waiting for Lisa and helped with the treatment.
He was sure that she was tired and hungry, but she still forced herself to stand before the soldiers and give them a boost to their morale.
"You too, Prince Jackson," Jennie nodded her head.
She headed towards the kitchen and grabbed some food before devouring them in haste.
"Jennie, I never saw you like that before."
"Rosé," Jennie looked up and smiled slightly, "I never got the chance to tell you about it before. Sorry that I surprised you."
Rosé shook her head and sat down near Jennie, "Well, you come from the Kim family, so I should have been able to guess it. Besides, you're the strategist of the Mountain Kingdom. There is no way you cannot speak in front of the soldiers."
"That's true," Jennie put the plate down.
Usually, she would eat at her tent, but because she was in a hurry, she just picked a spot and ate quickly.
"Seeing you speaking up like that, my brother said that he felt that Jayn is alive inside you," Rosé chuckled, "Especially because the way you're speaking is similar to him. "
Jennie was startled. Unknowingly, she had to speak up just like Jayn because of her condition.
Smiling slightly, she stood up.
"You will know more about it in the future. Let's go to the hall, There is a meeting for strategy in the tent and you have to listen."
Rosé nodded. Her rank still didn't allow her to speak in the meeting, but all the commanders had to listen, so it was time for her to gather there.
She looked towards Jennie. Her best friend seemed to be farther and farther away from her, but it was fine, she would catch up at her own pace.
