"Prepare for battle. General Shang will arrive soon enough."
"Yes!"
The soldiers had various expression on their faces. But the most prominent was the look of indignation.
Many of them felt that they had lost without fighting a battle because General Shang ordered them to retreat first. If they had been there, the outcome might be different and they could fight to their bitter end for Zhang Xu Kingdom.
The Commander saw their expression but said nothing.
General Shang was a conservative type of general who would calculate his gain and losses very clearly. But this type of generals often made decision that others couldn't accept so easily.
Unlike Prime Minister Lei who strike more victories and had brought countless gains, General Shang was more of a defensive general. He was valued because of his prowess to defend the frontline but in terms of popularity and prestige, he was far lower than many other generals.
Who liked defense?
