Sam sent Yodha way and sat in contemplation to think of a plan.

The only thing they have against the mutants is the numbers. And Sam is someone who used numbers to even kill a Consummate realm cultivator.

But for that, the people have to be in control and they have to obey commands properly, which might not be the strong suit of these special division soldiers.

Even then, he was not disappointed. He prepared a plan and gave it to Yodha, who took it to the meeting the very next day.

After some time, Sam was summoned to the meeting. He thought the commanders might have agreed, but to his surprise, they didn't even open the scroll he sent, rather there are five extremely hostile gauges that almost bore through his face and reached his skull.

All five of them are wearing the special division uniforms but they are not Nascent stage cultivators. Apart from the five of them, there are another five who wore the same type of dress with a faint difference and their cultivation seemed to be very high.

Yodha who saw his confusion whispered.

It turned out that the first five are the commanders of the special divisions and the second five are the instructors or trainers of the special divisions. Sam could more or less guess what happened.

"You think you are some bigshot due to some minor achievements? How arrogant are you to think that there is no one who is better than you? Do you know how much the special division soldiers put in to become the elites they are?"

One of the instructors started scolding as soon as he entered.

"Why bother telling him, if he really put that much hard work, and trained that hard, would he even be a common soldier now. Boy, you might have some abilities, but you don't have the reason or ability to look down upon our students."

The scolding went on and the final instructor's turn came and he said.

"Why are you even talking to him? He doesn't even have balls to prove his words in the special division, he didn't even dare to take up the challenge. There is no need for us to stoop down to his level."

Finally, Sam heaved a sigh of relief, all of them are done.

He looked at the general and spoke in an apologetic tone.

"I am sorry Sir, I must have overestimated my judgment and abilities and did something I shouldn't have. I have complete faith that the special divisions are going to succeed and bring glory to our army, if you can, please return my scroll and I will go back and reflect on myself."

The five instructors nodded their heads proudly as if they are showing they approved such meek behavior.

Sam doesn't know what their problem is, they are still thinking of their stupid pride and face even when their students are on verge of dying, he suddenly felt a tinge of pity for all the five thousand special division soldiers.

This situation also confirmed one thing, most Nagas are big-headed fools.

He took his scroll and went back to his tent with a sad face and after reaching the tent, he threw it into his storage and sat on his bed leisurely as he took some fruits and started eating them.

His face was full of pleasure as the juicy flesh of fruits got crushed between his teeth.

After a few minutes and a dozen fruits later, Yodha came rushing into the tent, and seeing Sam's behavior, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He thought, Sam really became docile due to pressure. Even though he understood that is not actually possible, he still had a slight panic.

"You know how to act. But what about the plan?" He asked in a worried tone.

"What is their plan?"

"They are saying that we have numbers. Apart from the special division, the number of the Nascent stage cultivators on our side is high. Since it is the battle of the same level, they believe these numbers will make a difference."

"Yeah, they will. The mutants will take more time to kill them, we can use that time to evacuate the city so that at least the citizens will be safe."

Yodha choked on his words. He looked at Sam and said.

"Why are you so damn pessimistic?"

"I am not being pessimistic, I am being honest. The number means nothing in this situation. A thousand sheep cannot do anything for a single line much less a whole pride of lions. But if there are a hundred wolves of the same pack, even the lion wouldn't be reckless enough to get in.

Do you know why?"

Yodha shook his head. He only knew of the normal animals, it was hard for them to exist in this place and most of them are extinct, but he knew their names and some appearances.

"Wolves wouldn't just stay together like sheep, they hunt together, they live together, they communicate, they are a whole family and knew of their companions as they know of themselves, they will unite under a single leader, the alpha of the pack and the stronger members of the pack so that they can hunt a bigger animal.

They would never lust for some individual glory, the killing blow will almost be done by alpha or beta wolf, but none of them would get jealous or scheme within themselves. They are loyal to their kind to the bones.

That is the exact reason for the failure of your soldiers.

They are not like wolves, they are sheep.

The sheep will follow the one in the front, but that is not because they are accepting him as a leader, that is because they want to find food, more food, and even more food for themselves.

All they care about is how more they ate compared to the rest of the flock.

Your soldiers are the same, they are like sheep, they want merits, they want achievements, it is not wrong. But the crisis came, they have to unite. What is the point of them getting away from the pack, when they are hunting a bear and go after some pheasant or hare.

Your soldiers lack some serious training."

Yodha looked at him intently and he is thinking a lot.

He was thinking back to see any of his memories of his regarding the special divisions, can compare to Sam's example and he became disappointed.

He left the tent and his shoulders are drooping a bit.

The days passed and Yodha tried to convince all the commanders to look at Sam's strategy at least once, he took a look and he felt like there might be a chance if they followed it, but no one agreed.

Soon, the day of war came and there is also news that the five hundred of Nascent stage cultivators of the enemies right now stationed at thousand meters away from their camp.

They could literally see them and their tents from the camp.

The commanders are still making plans for their march towards the forest.

They thought that since they got information that the blood mutants would take that forest, they are defending it, but they didn't expect that they would send five hundred of them right in front of their faces.

The regiment commanders and the battalion commanders all left to their camps a few days ago and they are now communicating by some special means. Anyway, even the farthest camp can be reached within a day, so it is not hard for the communication and the notice they got is that there are many other places that the blood mutants appeared.

For some villages to cities at the borders, there are hundred blood mutants at every village and there are five hundred mutants for every city.

There are five such important points and all of those important points have signs of these blood mutants after counting, there are approximately fifteen hundred mutants that are deployed.

Every place they targeted has more soldiers than them and they are extremely outnumbered, but the mutants are extremely confident.

Yodha has already left the responsibility of commanding the five special divisions, he did train them in the combined formations and such, but he didn't lead them into the battlefield and command them.

He believed in Sam for some reason. Maybe because it is his trust as a business partner, but because he felt like Sam is mysterious.

At this moment, the special division soldiers are already deployed to the five places. There are five thousand members but only half of them are deployed and for every place that was being targeted by the blood mutants, there are special division members.

They outnumbered them easily. They deployed five hundred members to every point of invasion. Even though one of them only has hundred blood mutants and another one has one two hundred and fifty, the third point has two hundred.

Apart from that, the two cities have five hundred members.

The special division members moved in secret, their plan is to overpower the smaller groups with numbers and destroy the larger groups by surrounding from sides and rear. In their heads, this is a perfect plan.
