An unexpected and puzzling ambush had left only Boyata injured by gunfire thus far, a stroke of luck amidst the misfortune.
If the enemy had allowed Yang Yi's vehicle to approach within a hundred meters before opening fire, then everyone in the vehicle would have been done for. No matter how talented Yang Yi was, facing a hail of bullets would have been meaningless, and no matter how tough Anton was, he would have ended up as a bullet-riddled hive.
Anton was right, if this battle had been a trap set by Big Ivan, they would be facing completely different adversaries.
It is often said that the will to fight is important, that bravery is key. So where do these aspects truly make a difference in battle?
