"Probably the bomb doesn't hit anybody. It is hard to do much damage that way in this war, be cause at all points the men are well spread out. But the bomb will scare, the horses half to death and they all try to run away.

But all these matters are detail. It is at Liuho that things come to a focus, half a mile off the railway in a beautiful clump of trees.
