However, Murong Kaifong was not as optimistic.
He always felt that things might not be so simple.
Although Southern Qin and East Qian hadn't engaged in a national war for nearly a thousand years, small skirmishes had never ceased. He had dealt with many generals on the East Qian side and had some understanding of their strategies and tactics. But the current approach didn't seem like their style.
While it couldn't be ruled out that they suddenly changed their style, in reality, it was more likely that the main general had changed. Or perhaps the main general hadn't changed, but the person overseeing the campaign had.
If that were the case, the possibilities behind it would be numerous.
We can't dismiss the possibility that this is a trap in itself...
It's safer to investigate further.
