"Look, isn't that disgusting? How can they call themselves an empire when they rely on such disgraceful tactics?" General Hadrik spoke with disgust as he glanced at the horizon.
"I have to agree with you, sir," one of the soldiers Hadrik had taken with him when he went for the scout mission spoke evenly.
"Rather than attacking us and trying to seize their cities back, they choose to stand back and wait. It is an honorless tactic, no, even worse, it is cowardly!"
Shifting his gaze from the horizon, the general got off the horse he was riding with a grunt. Gazing at the men he had brought with him, he commanded,
"We have ridden enough, take a moment to satisfy your hunger and wet your throats."
With a nod, the men complied. They got off their horses as well.
They acted silently and in harmony. They were truly the best the empire had to offer.
