Gu Chaoyan offered a brief smile.

Then, she addressed the Emperor of Southern Mist with earnestness, saying, “Despite our disadvantageous terrain, if we can entice Chengqi’s forces to approach our border, we can strategically position low mountains as an ambush to ensnare them in a middle-ground trap.”

“Just this maneuver alone could result in significant losses for Chengqi’s troops. Furthermore, it will instill a sense of fear and apprehension in Chengqi, making them hesitant to attack.”

“Afterward, I will capture their prince, king, monarch, ninth-layer warrior, and sixth-layer warrior. I believe there is still a considerable disparity between us, isn’t there?” Gu Chaoyan expressed confidently.

“Very well, excellent plan. Let’s proceed!” The Emperor of Southern Mist found this plan entirely feasible. Moreover, Shen Lianxue had devised a strategy that hadn’t been contemplated previously. Historically, Southern Mist had relied on sheer force, never delving into the realm of strategic planning.

Emperor Southern Mist had complete trust in Shen Lianxue’s cultivation and intellect.

“In that case, I entrust everything to you. As long as we secure victory in the war, I will reward you with whatever you desire!” Emperor Southern Mist expressed his satisfaction, sealing his promise.

“Understood!” Gu Chaoyan affirmed.

The next step was to prepare for battle.

On this occasion, Emperor Southern Mist a.s.signed a total of 30,000 elite troops to Shen Lianxue.

These 30,000 soldiers had previous experience on the battlefield and were well-acquainted with Chengqi’s tactics.

As for Shen Lianxue, she was a newcomer to the role of a general.

Many among these soldiers held reservations about being led by Shen Lianxue.

Although her cultivation prowess was remarkable, she was, after all, a woman. Some doubted whether a woman could effectively lead troops into battle.

They harbored concerns that she might be either timid, overly emotional, or inexplicably compa.s.sionate.

Southern Mist had encountered setbacks due to female generals in the past.

Consequently, when Shen Lianxue a.s.sumed command of the troops, many of these soldiers held reservations and displayed a degree of disdain. Throughout the journey, they remained somewhat aloof.

Gu Chaoyan paid little mind to these att.i.tudes, having confronted numerous challenges herself.

As long as she executed her duties effectively, everything would fall into place.

After three days of marching, exhaustion had taken its toll on everyone. Their initial vigor had dwindled for several reasons. Firstly, the lengthy journey had drained their stamina. Secondly, while they had adequate rations, they were just sufficient for the extended expedition. Thirdly, discomfort had arisen due to adverse weather conditions.

And these…

Gu Chaoyan observed it all.

However, n.o.body conveyed these issues to her.

In their view, they were men and couldn’t afford to lose face by seeking a.s.sistance from a woman. Moreover, their prior experiences with a female general had left them apprehensive and wary of any potential consequences.

Initially, Gu Chaoyan didn’t address their needs, opting to teach them a lesson in the hopes of discouraging future insubordination.

As their endurance waned…

Gu Chaoyan emerged, providing medicinal pills to the wounded soldiers while instructing the others to prepare herbal remedies.

Upon consuming the pills, the heavily injured soldiers experienced rapid recoveries, leaving them feeling somewhat conflicted.

Firstly, they were astonished at the efficacy of the general’s medicinal pills.

Secondly, they felt somewhat embarra.s.sed. The general had offered them such potent pills, yet they had consistently underestimated her.

Their emotions were complicated for a moment.

The journey resumed.

Those who had taken the medicine experienced marked improvements in their well-being.

As for those who remained steadfast in refusing the treatment, they continued to endure discomfort..
