Zhao Chen has had a truly rough month, on tenterhooks and even somewhat panic-stricken, because the situation before him is unprecedented.
On one hand, the front on the Fengjiang side where he's in charge of attacking has unexpectedly called a ceasefire. The frontline troops began to rest and reorganize, which was good for him; however, that railroad was like a fishbone stuck in his throat, lying across his path of future advances.
It was like a gigantic vase placed on the battlefield that both sides had to ensure would not break, or else neither could bear the responsibility.
Such bizarre conditions for the offensive were like a fishbone stuck in Zhao Chen's throat. He had been trying to work around this railroad, hoping to make the most of this "unbeatable" link.
Regrettably, due to the greedy nature of his subordinates, the current state of the frontline troops is quite dire, resting in name but decaying in reality, with a steep decline in combat effectiveness.
