He shook his head and chuckled softly:
"Did it move...? Hehe."
He stood up, looked at Qi Jiguang, and said:
"Pass down the order: stop moving, station troops here, and wait for the enemy to come to them."

The wind blew all night.
The wind was still blowing as dawn broke.
The sky was still filled with dark, oppressive clouds that seemed to be very close to the ground, making it hard to breathe.
On a dead tree, ants crawled all over the mottled trunk, climbing upwards in a headlong rush.
With a "bang".
Murata slammed his fist into the tree trunk, sending a withered leaf fluttering to the ground, followed by Murata's low growl:
"Damn it! Did they also notice the strange weather?!"
"If we remain inactive, we'll be in big trouble!"
Huang Tianwei, standing to the side, crossed his arms and frowned.
"Turning offense into defense, Qin Ze also realized that continuing the march at this point would be a mistake."
After saying this, he looked at the ants crawling all over the tree trunk and continued:
"However, it is definitely going to rain."
"If it doesn't come down during the day, it will definitely come down at night."
Murata looked at Huang Tianwei, his expression gradually becoming serious:
"If that's the case, then let's turn defense into offense!"
"If it rains tonight, we'll take the initiative! We must make the most of this opportunity!"
Huang Tianwei made no comment; he looked at the troops that had already assembled.
In the past few days, troops from the surrounding area have been mobilized, and there are quite a few troops at present, the main force of which are the elite samurai that Murata brought from Japan.
As a vanguard of the conservative faction, Murata has been granted considerable power by his supporters in Japan.
Now, the army is fully prepared and ready to be deployed.
As the afternoon approached, the dark clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, and a series of muffled rumbling sounds rang out from time to time.
Murata decided not to wait any longer. He walked to the front of the army, puffed out his chest, and gave his orders to the soldiers:
"Prepare for war!"
Immediately, led by Murata, the army marched in a mighty procession toward Qin Ze's encampment!
Halfway through the journey, a cold wind howled, and lightning flashed and thunder roared in the clouds, threatening an impending storm.
Murata Takashi, riding his warhorse, looked increasingly excited, while Huang Tianwei, standing beside him, had a somber expression. He carried a large bow on his back, a string of short daggers at his waist, and a green-spined dragon spear in his hand.
