Seeing how resolute he was, and that he had already made his final decision, the few men exchanged glances and found it difficult to say anything more.
Nor was there anything they could say. Whether to withdraw or press on with the attack, such a decision was not one an ordinary person could make. The others did not dare make it either.

When armies went to war, the only person on the battlefield who could command thousands upon thousands of troops and make such strategic decisions was Commander-in-Chief Luo Zhao, the supreme commander.
