The plane prepared to move in for the kill.

飞机已作好击落敌机的准备。

So they surrounded the place and lay in wait for him all night at the city gate. They made no move during the night, saying, "At dawn we'll kill him."

他们就把他团团围住，终夜在城门悄悄埋伏，说：“ 等到天亮我们便杀他。”

I think the relationship is close, for in many cases a seasoned boxer can't kill the enemy in only one move, as a matter of fact, a series of moves are needed.

我认为联系紧密，因为光靠一招将对手置于死地有时不太可能，需要连环的套路。
