Exegesis

The coordinated phrase hamma’agalah vehachayil hayotze {הַמַּעְגָּלָה וְהַחַיִל הַיֹּצֵא | ham-maʿ-ɡā-lāh wə-ha-ḥa-yîl ha-yō-ṣēʾ} sets the scene of the camp and the army’s movement, and the Hifil perfect vehereu {וְהֵרֵעוּ | we-hê-rê-ʿû} conveys the onset of the army’s shout in bamilchamah {בַּמִּלְחָמָה | ba-mil-ḥā-māh}, situating the action in battle. English past-tense narrative mirrors these temporal and causal relationships.
