los soldados se preparan (están preparando) para la guerra


Explanation:
Aunque "ir a la guerra" es perfecto, quizás exista otra posibilidad como ésta dependiendo del contexto.

Habría que ver en el contexto global el sentido que se pretende con ese "presente continuo"

Espero que te valga

Un abrazo
