After enjoying a hot meal next to the field kitchen at the frontline, a privilege only the Tang Army could provide, this Qin Army soldier who had narrowly survived nearly broke down.
If he had known that surrendering would allow him to eat such meals, why the hell did he even bother running? Why did his comrades... even bother running?
The whole way, they had been fleeing with their troops, hiding from Tang Army planes, scattering in panic at the shouts of "The Tang Army is coming"...
That was simply not a life fit for humans! As they ran, their numbers dwindled until only a few officers and their pitiful regimental commander remained.
According to the laws of Qin Country, officers who lose their troops but survive would face military law. However, because so many officers lost their troops, this time the Qin Army's high command did not pursue the charges of losing troops and disgracing the country.
