In this scene, we witness soldiers huddled together in their camp as they face an unseen enemy lurking in the shadows. The tension is palpable as each soldier remains vigilant, ready to defend themselves against any sudden attack.

The artist skillfully conveys both the danger and bravery inherent in such conflicts through his masterful use of light and shadow. As rays of sunlight pierce through billowing smoke, it illuminates not only the chaos but also highlights moments of heroism amidst adversity.
