Winning a battle and then feasting lavishly, indulging in meat and wine, is a joy for all soldiers; it means they are still alive.
However, for the commander-in-chief, every great victory means to be careful, careful, and even more careful. If one wins first and loses later, it would be a complete tragedy. There have been those who initially won but then, due to carelessness, were defeated or even lost their lives, so it is even more important to be cautious after a great victory to maintain it.
After the group of officers left, only Chen Xi, Guo Jia, and a few other high-ranking generals remained in the large tent. Some matters still needed to be discussed, as for Xuu Chu, he had already gone to patrol the camp earlier. Zhao Yun would take over the patrol in the latter half of the night, such caution by senior officers was only needed after a significant victory.
