"Charge! Level the English positions!"
Driven by the shouts of mid-level officers—Banner Commanders and squad leaders—the Shun Dynasty’s regular army steeled their resolve, finally unleashing their true strength. These officers charged at the vanguard. In the Shun military, the tradition was always for the officers to lead and the soldiers to follow; they lived by the creed "Follow me!" rather than "Brothers, charge for me!"
Because of this, the Shun soldiers feared nothing. With such excellent officers setting the example, they showed not a shred of cowardice, even while charging headlong into a hail of bullets.
