Lu Jiang and the others clearly understood Hen Xiangqian's intentions.
Hen Xiangqian wasn't originally from here and had no foundation; he needed to consolidate power, and that power currently lay in the hands of Lu Jiang and Wen Hao—one the acting army commander, the other the chief of staff—supporting one another.
It would be enough time for Hen Xiangqian to achieve his goals while Lu Jiang and his team were away.
While Lu Jiang had exceptional combat abilities on the battlefield, he didn't particularly enjoy the administrative scheming and wasn't concerned about the authority Hen Xiangqian held in high esteem; a soldier's duty lies on the battlefield.
