A Qin Country officer rushed into Chen Li's command headquarters rest area, waking up the just-asleep Northern Qin Army Supreme Commander Chen Li.
"What is it? What happened?" Chen Li knew that if it wasn't an urgent situation, his subordinates wouldn't easily wake up a resting commander.
Because the commander's sleep is very important, the more intense the battle situation, the more important the commander's mental state is. Being able to calmly maintain a regular rest pattern is also a trait that a competent commander should possess.
Chen Li had actually been doing quite well recently, at least the defense problems he was most worried about had been addressed to a certain extent.
The Tang Empire chose a truce in the muddy February. The other side did not attack with urgency but maintained a relatively gentle probing harassment state.
