Hook didn't know what Luo Zheng was planning, but he understood it wasn't the time to question or discuss. He also knew Luo Zheng wouldn't harm him. Time was pressing as the enemy could attack at any moment. He quickly agreed, "Understood, I'll start preparing. Is there anything else you need me to do?"
"Arrange for the troops retreating from the north to escort the POWs, everyone else should take all the supplies and equipment and leave. Split into five groups heading west. You're familiar with the route, so decide how to proceed. The troops in the west will be responsible for reception, rearguard, and covering the retreat. I estimate the enemy will cease operations once they occupy the valley, though small groups may pursue. Once west, find secluded spots and remain hidden. No military actions during this period. Secretly train the tribe's armed forces," Luo Zheng instructed hurriedly.
"Understood, anything else?" Hook replied.
