With a wave of her hand, she produced a detailed and well-thought-out terrain map.

Clearly, she had an intimate knowledge of the West Mountain’s terrain and topography, as if it were etched in her heart.

Her arrangements for everyone were also clear and organized, showing great method and order.

Despite her youth, her every word was able to make people listen and be convinced by what she said.

Involuntarily, Li Shenshan thought of that commander in the Northern region who led them in the Divine Strategy Camp to victory in every battle, seizing every target with precision.

They really do resemble each other—

Could this really be just a coincidence?

Li Shenshan quickly gathered his thoughts and replied, “I will follow your orders and will not let you down!”

Wasn’t it just about coordinating with Wei Yang’s three thousand archers, trapping those nine thousand county soldiers in the canyon?

What was so difficult about that?

However, he couldn’t help but use the tone he had adopted while in the Northern Army.

Chu Yunyun was briefly stunned, then nonchalantly waved her hand, signaling Li Shenshan to proceed with the tasks.

She then turned her attention to the two towering, strong men beside her.

They were two Vice Altar Masters from West Mountain.

“Vice Altar Master Li, Vice Altar Master Zhang, did you both hear my arrangements just now?

Both of you come from West Mountain and are Divine Archers of the hall.

You should know which of the hunters excel in archery.

We currently have a hundred twenty-five-stone Strong Bows in the hall, and I want you each to pick fifty Divine Shooters.

Take positions on top of these two hills, from where you’ll have a commanding view and control over the entire field.

I don’t permit you to join the battle; I only require that you keep an eye on and pin down all enemy fighters of Seventh Rank and above.”

Chu Yunyun indeed planned to entrust the frontal battles entirely to Li Shenshan, yet there were still some details that needed to be arranged meticulously.

For instance, there were a total of fifty Seventh Rank Martial Cultivators in the county army and another five of Sixth Grade.

West Mountain Hall and West Mountain Hunters were just slightly lacking in comparison.

Chu Yunyun thought to herself that it would be better if there were more snitches in the hall.

Just then, a large group of people dressed as hunters approached from the front.

Their ages varied; some were in the prime of their life, while others were aged and feeble.

However, their faces were all ashen and somber.

Lu Luanti recognized these individuals as the hunter leaders from West Mountain.

The fact that they had hurried over at this time likely meant they were worried about the current situation in West Mountain Hall and Chu Yunyun’s well-being.

Lu Luanti had been somewhat concerned, afraid that Chu Yunyun might not be able to cope.

But not long after, he saw the earnestness on the faces of the hunter leaders ease.

Driven by curiosity, Lu Luanti leaned closer to listen, and then heard Chu Yunyun saying, “—All the military maneuvering and planning for this time were decisions made by my brother before he left.

If you don’t trust me, you should at least trust my brother!

My brother, who ventured thousands of miles to protect a friend on his way to the capital, is such a benevolent and righteous person.

How could he possibly leave you in a place of death?

What is there for you all to worry about?

In the battle today, all fourteen altars of our West Mountain Hall, totaling one thousand four hundred people, will be at the very front.

If we win this battle with your full support, and if the situation turns dire, you hunters can retreat in advance.

The surrounding area is all mountains and forests.

If you hide in the hills, no matter how formidable the county soldiers are, they will not be able to lay a finger on you.

How much property could those bandits have left you after skimming the fat off your assets?

You might as well be rid of those meager possessions.

My brother has promised beforehand that whatever losses you incur, West Mountain Hall will fully compensate you for them.”

Lu Luanti felt that Chu Yunyun’s gentle words carried a kind of magic that soothed people’s hearts, making everyone unconsciously comply and be convinced by her.

She couldn’t help but marvel in amazement.

If it had not been for today’s battle, she would have never known that the always unwell Little Sister Chu was actually such a formidable person.

But then again, it made sense; after all, how could a tiger’s sibling be anything less than extraordinary?

Chu Xisheng must have taught her well.

When Commander Shen Zhou heard that the entire West Mountain Hall was launching an attack on Zheng Family Village, he was meeting with Long Heng and Shangguan Shen Hao on the battlements of Xiushui County City.

Upon hearing the news, his face instantly turned pale.

Commander Shen Zhou had never expected that West Mountain Hall would completely ignore the Dan Family and throw all their efforts into saving Zheng Family Village.

Geographically speaking, Zheng Family Village was actually not very important.

The hunter villages were all within the interior of West Mountain, and even if they all fell, it would not shake the foundation of West Mountain Hall.

On the contrary, the several passageways under the responsibility of the Dan Family, once broken through by the West Mountain bandits, could cause the entire region of West Mountain Town to be shaken.

They might even amass enough strength to attack West Mountain Town.

What unsettled Shen Zhou the most was that West Mountain Hall had gathered a large number of hunters in Fruit Forest Village!

When Liu Dingtang was in charge of West Mountain Town in previous years, these West Mountain Hunters were never so dedicated.

Whenever Liu Dingtang issued a command, they would be evasive and come up with all sorts of excuses.

Under Chu Xisheng’s hand, all twenty-seven hunter villages within West Mountain, plus five from the outer mountains, had actually all heeded the call of West Mountain Hall, moving toward Fruit Forest Village without any delays on the way.

—That was a total of seven thousand three hundred people!

Along with the two hundred hunters from Zheng Family Village, they made up a total of seven thousand five hundred bowmen and swordsmen!

Besides, there were another one thousand four hundred gang members from the West Mountain Hall!

This was an army nearly ten thousand strong.

Even though they were a ragtag bunch, hastily unified by Chu Xisheng in under three months and without any battle formation drills, these individuals were extremely strong fighters, almost all of them being ranked Martial Cultivators.

Eight thousand nine hundred Ninth Grade Martial Cultivators, a majority of whom were skilled in archery.

Just on paper, this massive force looked quite formidable.

Overall, their combat power was even far superior to the Xiushui County Army under his command.
