With such relentless tenacity, the Northwest Alliance soon spread the saying: "When fighting the Hidden Stream's Demon Soldiers, you must take their lives while they are sick. Otherwise, after a few days, the wounded will return to the battlefield revitalized and full-hearted like vigorous dragons and tigers, even more ruthless and bloodthirsty, making it a typical case of getting bitten when failing to kill the snake."
The reason is simple: the Red Cloud Plateau is adjacent to the Bashe Forest, and all injured soldiers from the Hidden Stream that are rescued back to the forest are comforted by the Power of Growth of Ba Snake, allowing the critically wounded to stay alive, while those with minor injuries heal even faster. Not to mention that within the Hidden Stream resides a vast team of Pill Masters, able to provide an endless supply of elixirs for these demons.
