"There is no warrior like Bahadur, and no one else possesses the skills he ha, but he did not suffer from hardship and was not affected by huger of thirst. He thought his liege men could tolerate hardship as well as he could, but they couldn't. A man is worthy of leadership who knows what hunger and thirst are and who can judge the condition of others thereby, who can go at a measured pace and not allow the soldiers to get hungry and thirsty or the horses to get worn out." | "There is no warrior like Bahadur, and no one else possesses the skills he ha, but he did not suffer from hardship and was not affected by huger of thirst.
