Chapter 53, The Second Governor General

Gu Hang revealed a smile.

He stepped forward and gave Lambert a big hug, "I'm willing to trust you, welcome aboard, young comrade."

Lambert's expression was sincere, but Gu Hang didn't completely trust him either.

After all, the guy brought a group of people with him, surrendered his weapons when asked, and worked when told; what was there to worry about?

Gu Hang didn't expect much from them, nor would he use them for important tasks. Just let them clean up the battlefield, carry loads—who couldn't do that? Using them was simple.

As for trust, that wasn't something to be shown through words.

With more time and more shared experiences, he would eventually show his true colors.

Moreover, this guy brought Gu Hang an even bigger surprise.

Following him, apart from five hundred armed soldiers, there were also more than two thousand refugees.

According to Lambert, these were the people he had recruited from outside the city when he set out.
