“Chief Yu, you’re worrying too much. Just tell me, do you want to take down these two villages? As long as you want, there’s no need for everyone to do anything. I’ll get them for you!”

Hearing this, everyone thought that their ears had malfunctioned.

“Brother Chen, do you have any good ideas?” Li Chun could not help but ask.

Zhou Jing snorted, “Why do I need a plan? There’s no need to send troops to attack the village. As long as I go to their door and challenge them, capture the leader of the other village, reform them, and persuade them to change their allegiance to Red Cloud Mountain, I’ll succeed!”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s expressions became subtle.

They had thought that Zhou Jing would have a high-level plan, but they did not expect him to be so rough and simple…

Wasn’t this too reckless?!

To be honest, there were benefits to being rash. If he could successfully subdue the leaders of Tiger Head Mountain or Yellow Pond Mountain and make the other party lose their leader, perhaps Red Cloud Mountain could really swallow them up.

After all, most of the bandits were not loyal. They did not mind changing heads as long as the treatment was not bad.

Pitting generals against each other was unlike attacking a stronghold. The difference in manpower did not matter, and both sides would not fall out as well. With Chen Feng’s astonishing martial arts, it was not difficult for him to defeat the enemy leader.

However, there was a huge problem with this method… What if the other party did not give you a chance to fight?

“This matter is not that simple. Brother Chen’s bravery has long spread throughout the Green Forest. If you come to challenge them, if they avoid the battle, so this plan will not work. Moreover, they can guard the pass and close the mountain stronghold’s door. It will be difficult to enter by force by then. At that time, no matter how high Brother Chen’s martial arts are, it will be useless…”

Li Chun’s tone was helpless.

Everyone nodded in agreement. They did not understand where Zhou Jing’s confidence came from. Did he think that he could easily take down a stronghold of 10,000 people just because he was skilled in martial arts?

Zhou Jing, on the other hand, laughed out loud,

“Haha, as long as Grandpa goes, it’s not up to them to accept the challenge or not!”

To ordinary people, there was nothing wrong with the concerns of the people from Red Cloud Mountain… However, he was an anomaly.

With the strength of this apostle, he could even last for a long time against the army, let alone kill the generals and seize the flags. Even if the enemy closed their doors tightly, he could find a way to climb up and directly fight his way into the enemy’s territory.

It was hard to say what could happen when facing a regular army, but against a group of bandits with low morale and poor combat skills, even if the other party had thousands of people, they were just a pile of loose sand. Zhou Jing was not afraid at all.

These words were said so boldly that everyone present was stunned.

“Good spirit!” Lu Xinniang was overwhelmed with emotions. She immediately stood up and cupped her fists at Yu Feng. “Chief, I’m willing to go to war with Brother Chen!”

“Sister, don’t mess around!” Lu Yunzhao hurriedly stopped her and said solemnly, “Although I respect Brother Chen’s martial arts, this matter is too risky. If the opponent has any ill intentions, his life will be left there. Let’s forget about it.”

Everyone chipped in with their thoughts, disagreeing with the plan.

Soon, everyone looked at Yu Feng and waited for him to make a decision.

Yu Feng hesitated for a while before suddenly making up his mind and nodding heavily,

“Brother Chen, since you’ve already said so, as the master of the village, how can I cower and let down your kindness? I can’t just sit back and watch you take the risk alone. How about this? I’ll give you 200 lackeys and go challenge them together so that we can take care of each other.”

Since Zhou Jing had taken the initiative to mention this matter and said that there was no need for the Red Cloud Mountain to interfere, there was no harm in giving it a try.

However, it was not appropriate to sit back and enjoy the fruits of Zhou Jing’s labor, so Yu Feng decided to send some lackeys for Zhou Jing to command. As for the stronghold heads, they would not follow him.

However, he was still willing to take out 200 people for a gamble.

At this point, Yu Feng quickly added, “If things don’t work out, Brother Chen, you have to protect yourself…”

“Don’t worry, Chief.”

Zhou Jing deliberately revealed a nonchalant expression.

Everyone discussed the details before Zhou Jing left the hall with his two brothers.

After walking out of the house, Fang Zhen could not help but speak,

“Brother, didn’t you say that you were here to say goodbye? Why did you change your mind?”

Zhou Jing shook his head, “If we don’t repay him, I’m afraid the world will think that we’re ungrateful. It won’t be too late to leave after this.”

“Second Brother makes sense.”

Guo Haishen nodded deeply.

He paused and pondered for a moment,

“It’s just that this matter is quite risky. It’s unimaginable for just the few of us to bring 200 people to the 10,000-strong stronghold to challenge them. Taking a step back, even if we win in a one-on-one battle, they will definitely not be willing to switch to Red Cloud Mountain. What can we do?”

Zhou Jing laughed, “Are you two afraid?”

Fang Zhen immediately snorted, “I’ve never been afraid of anything. Isn’t it just a challenge? What’s there to be afraid of!”

Guo Haishen also said in a deep voice, “We brothers will live and die together. How can I back down? Second Brother, don’t say such words in the future.”

Only then did Zhou Jing stop smiling. He patted their shoulders and said solemnly,

“Alright, as long as you two brothers believe in me, I will naturally make our names famous in this world!”

When the two of them heard this, their hearts skipped a beat, and their blood surged.

…

Soon, Yu Feng ordered the outlaws to gather at the drill ground. Zhou Jing would be the one to select the people.

Zhou Jing was not too picky, casually choosing 200 of the elites as his team.

Although he was an outsider, these lackeys had seen his skills for months. At this moment, they were quite obedient and were willing to listen to orders.

In addition, Zhou Jing also called Zhang San and the other four of his personal entourage.

The five of them had learned the simplified Mid-Level Spear Technique for a few months and had eaten and drunk well on the mountain. They had even trained with the stronghold men.

Just as Zhou Jing was arranging the troops, a few lackeys carried a black iron spear over.
