"Our foes do not appear to be heavily defended, nor are they on the alert. I, for one, question Sanguine Rose's decision to conduct a forced march in this hostile terrain; which makes me all the more suspicious, Rose can not be this foolish!" said the Wanderer as he surveyed his surroundings. "However, this encampment is too close to our borders..... any raids on the human village may cause the humans(in the Human Village) to doubt our ability to protect them. Moreover, open terrain is great for our force to operate on-I could also use this fog to act as a concealment". he was not wrong, for he could call all his tribesmen through Oghuz, and they would respond without delay to his call. But he had a issue. He had half of his men on a reconnaissance missions to scout out any weapons depots the Eientei's, Lunarians, or the Diggist's may have, for every bit of modern weaponry would be a great asset for the Hakurei Republic, not be mention his tribe as well. Recently he was worried about the nightmares and visions Reimu has been having; his tribe had to well prepared for the oncoming battle between extinction or survival. The End Battle might be nearing; all the more reason to be cautious due to Reimu possessing a degree of divine essence inside her.
"Well then comrade, we do not know the designs the enemies possess, but I believe we should ignore them, whilst strengthening the Hakurei Frontiers with our men. Do they do not seem to possess enough men to mount a successful raid", he explained to his hellraven(his hell-raven was the only soul he had to talk to in his times of solitude)

Joint Military Council Report by the Frontiers Armies of the Hakurei Republic(FAHR)
We have compiled this report to highlight to you some of the exigencies facing our armies at the moment. Youkai Mountain as you know, was a important source of materials for the firearms. However, with the establishment of Moriya-land(the entity currently occupying The Youkai Mountain), and the subsequent banning of free trade by CEO Kanako, we have had to strictly ration our supplies to the point where we have had to retreat for shortage of gunpowder. We can not access our ancient lands situated near the Forever-Green Pastures because of large concentration of Wild Youkai. Although not directly advisable from a military point of view, it will help us recover and mine much needed war material should we eliminate the Wild Youkai concentrated in the area. We recommend a joint expedition with either the Theocracy, or the Fairies, whatever comes out politically achievable.
(Hope this suffices for now)
