We were all waiting for the bandits to attack.
Liao Hu even ordered the men to light fire a little away from us in a circle, as though trying to lure Nue Sha towards the west cave.
Nian Qu and I have been tasked with sitting in the cave. From the looks of it, they were planning to fight fire with fire. It's just a matter of who made the first move.
"We'll let them fight it out first," I murmured. Nian Qu had taken a nap after I had applied ointment on her wounds and bandaged her injuries.
Now the two of us sat side by side, leaning against the cave walls. We held our weapons in our hands, relaxed as all soldiers marched outside.
There was barely any sound, both inside and out of the cave. There was a small fire a few steps away from us, staving away a bit of the cold.
I was beginning to feel sleepy when a sudden shout made us jump.
"Charge!" General Chang's high voice pierced the air.
