General Vance and the military high command were still seated behind the table as before, with the clergy of the Moon Church and the Hailing Group facing each other across.
Upon entering, Chen Lun immediately heard a middle-aged priest of the Hailing Group speaking sternly to the general, expressing discontent:
"General, the fact is as we have said, there truly is an ambush by enemy forces within the canyon... All three churches have warned you at the same time, why then did you insist on going your own way?"
"Priest Kuni, first of all, thank you for your warning..."
General Vance nodded with a smile.
"But it's not that we disregarded your opinions, after deliberation at headquarters, pushing deeper into the canyon was deemed the best choice... In this encounter, we only lost a hundred and twenty-two men, and all the injured have been treated and have recovered combat power, whereas the enemy lost seven hundred and fifty men, none survived."
