Upon learning that Sun Jian had retreated, Yuan Shu was naturally furious. When Sun Jian returned, Yuan Shu slammed his fist on the table and demanded, "Sun Wentai, what on earth were you thinking? Why didn't you fight? Could that Tang Tianming really be a match for you?"
Though feeling deeply oppressed, Sun Jian had no choice; Yuan Shu was his superior, so he had to swallow his anger and reply, "My Lord, it is not that this subordinate refused to fight, but rather that Tang Tianming is truly formidable. If we had actually fought them, I fear we would all have perished there."
Ever since he had laid eyes on those artillery shells, Sun Jian had run countless tactical simulations in his mind, yet no matter how he analyzed it, he could find no weakness on Xiaotian's side.
