Passage 1

When the army from the plain reached the fort of the enemy, a tense standoff ensued. The army general called for the men in the fort to surrender, but the answer soon came in the form of cannon fire. A fierce and bloody battle was then waged with many casualties on both sides.

Passage 2

The men in the fort watched warily as the enemy troops from the plains advanced towards their position. The general of this army rather haughtily shouted a command that the men in the fort surrender. The commander of the fort shouted back, "If you want it, come and take it!" This was followed by the firing of a cannon volley.
