"Their strategic objective is probably to travel under the cover of night. Will they attack us midway, or wait until the target reaches the designated location before acting?"
"Bronya recommends letting the line run to catch the big fish."
Zhao Bai said nothing and listened carefully to Bronya's suggestion.
