Episode 255. Refusal of treatment (2)
“Yes? Are you saying we’re going to get together right now?”
The general, who was running toward the horse wearing armor, almost asked Jindeung, who had come to deliver the order, ‘what brainless man said that?’
Of course, he didn’t say that because it was obvious that he was the one who could give orders to Jindeung.
Warak.
Instead, he nervously pushed Jindeung away.
The general did not even look at the fallen Jindeung, nervously mounted his horse and ran toward the enemy general brandishing his spear.
“I heard that there is a furry man wielding a hat in Sopae Castle, so that seems to be you. My case will cut your throat… oops!”
Jindeung, who got up after rolling on the floor, was frightened to see the longevity running away from him, who had just pushed him away and ran towards the enemy general.
‘General Kyung is a master with five fingers…. How?’
Soldiers were falling like rotten scarecrows at the spear of the general who had cut off the case. And the longevity was running straight toward him on a horse.
‘The Lord is dying!’
Jindeung suddenly had a premonition of his own death.
In the meantime, I had participated several times before the subjugation of bandits under the command of my father, but I had never experienced such a brutal death as now.
Jindeung instinctively turned around and started running.
I could hear the screams of the soldiers and the sound of horses hooves in my ears, but I didn’t dare to turn my head. It seemed that if I turned my head, a spear would come flying and strike me in the neck.
Heh heh heh…..
How long did it run?
It was so dark that I couldn’t see well, but I didn’t care and ran like crazy, tripped on something, and when I got up, I heard screams and clashing weapons in the distance.
‘Buy and live!’
The first thought that came to my mind was that I was no longer targeting myself as much as this moment.
“uh? Looking at the outfit, I don’t think it’s an enemy soldier…”
Then, someone’s voice was heard in the darkness.
Whoa ah.
Then, suddenly, a torch came out, and I saw the figures of many people.
‘Huh!’
Jindeung was horrified to see the numerous arrows pointed at him.
If one of them accidentally let go of the taut bowstring, he could have died.
“I asked who this is, isn’t it Captain Jin?”
“Who is it?”
“That’s me. stoker.”
When the fireman made his way through the soldiers and appeared, the relief in Jindeung’s eyes was small.
“Oh Master.”
“What are you doing all this way, Captain Jin?”
“Now, the enemies launched an ambush, and the main base is in chaos.”
“We know that the enemy has been ambush. Although it is far away, the sound can be heard from here.”
“This is not the time to be so relaxed. Go immediately and drive out the enemies…”
“What are you talking about? go right away There are several thousand at most, but what kind of reinforcement is it for a large army of 100,000?”
“How many thousands? It was just a few thousand.”
Only then did Jindeung begin to clear his mind little by little.
For the first time in my life, experiencing a real war that was different from a battle against bandits, I couldn’t come to my senses.
Suddenly.
‘Oops, if my father finds out that I’ve fled to the rear where the monk is… I’ll be extremely disappointed!’
And then, suddenly, I remembered my father, who is in charge of the commander-in-chief.
In a situation where he and the children of his second-in-command were being compared, this could be a big laughing stock.
“I just need to go back. Haven’t the enemies attacked this place?”
“As you can see, we are not under any attack yet.”
Jindeung glanced at the wagon loaded with military rice and nodded.
“I will report to the commander that this place was not attacked.”
“yes.”
“Then I will go.”
“yes.”
Jindeung turned and walked, unable to keep his balance for a moment, staggering, as if his legs had lost strength.
snap.
When Jin-deung was approached, the fireman helped him.
“I’ll give you a horse, so ride it.”
“yes. then.”
With a reddened face, Jindeung rode back to the headquarters on the horse given by the fireman’s subordinate.
As Jindeung disappeared into the distance, Zhuge Liang behind him clicked his tongue.
“He looks like a half-penny, but how can someone like that be the son of a defeated country?”
“It must be like that since it was the first time I went through a war. Not half a penny.”
The painter smiled bitterly at Zhuge Liang and the others who sympathized with him.
‘Is the record of future history wrong? Why does Jindeung look so stupid?’
Looking at the recorded history alone, Jindeung is a person who changed several masters, from Yeopo Jojo Liubi. However, if you look at the fundamentals, he was a person who worked for the well-being of his hometown until his death. The master to serve him was not the feudal lord, but the people of the defeated country ruled by his father.
“Anyway, it seems that those who made the surprise attack have now retreated.”
The fireman, who had been thinking about Jindeung for a while, looked at the headquarters in the distance at Zhuge Liang’s words.
Suddenly there was no sound of screaming or clashing weapons.
“You’ll have to go at least five more days to reach Sopaeseong… You must be pretty tired on the way.”
“A night attack using darkness like today is expected.
When Eulji tilted his head at the painter’s words, the painter shrugged.
“Even if you prepare, the damage will accumulate.”
“Still, I’m 100,000, so will I be swung around that much?”
“Ryang, what do you think it looks like?”
“Looking at it this way, it is not a matter of numbers. Command is in serious trouble. I think it will do quite a bit of damage in the future. If there is a little disturbance, you won’t be able to sleep, and then the fatigue will accumulate and make it harder.”
“You mean it’s an army of 100,000, so you can do that?”
“You saw it a while ago. That the commander-in-chief’s son had fled all the way here to live alone. The experience of war cannot be learned from books. Moreover, the opponent who surprises is the best of the best.”
* * *
“Commander! Enemy on both sides…”
“Keuugh! Damn again?”
Jin-gyu stopped eating and stood up from his seat.
Already on the third day, more than 10,000 soldiers were attacked by more than 10,000 soldiers, and several times that number of soldiers were injured, so the morale of the defeated army went over the floor and was buried underground.
“I must catch and kill these rat-like bastards today!”
After Jin-gyu threw his spoon, he drew out his sword and stood up, and the deputy commanders and generals followed suit.
Based on the experience of being surprised so far, I was thoroughly prepared and waiting for today.
After getting on the horse, Jin-gyu shouted as he ran in the lead.
“I will pursue and annihilate the enemy even to the end of hell. Follow me!”
Generals and cavalrymen attached to Jinkyu’s left and right, and some generals went ahead and collided with the enemy soldiers.
It was an incomparable move from just a few days ago, and it was an agile response.
Guan Yu and Equipment, who led the cavalry in a surprise attack, hurriedly turned around and ran away when a large army of tens of thousands moved in an orderly manner and attacked.
“Even if you guys escaped, it would be a small castle. Don’t run away, rats, take my sword!”
As the enemy fled, the morale of the soldiers following Jin-gyu and the generals rose sharply.
In fact, since Jin-gyu and other deputy commanders are not generals, they are not in a position to lead on the battlefield.
Even so, it was as if he could not tell the difference between the front and the back due to anger.
* * *
“Tsk tsk…..”
The painter clicked his tongue, and Zhuge Liang let out a long sigh.
“The generals over there are really great. After provoking it, there will be a trap ahead. To fall for such a number… It’s really frustrating.”
“If you leave it as it is, all those in front will die. Will you be okay?”
When Eulji asked with a worried expression, Jegal-ryang glanced at the fireman before opening his mouth.
“You ask, but you have to do it in a dramatic moment. I have no choice but to take a little damage. But still, it would be good to move the army gradually.”
“It’s almost time… but let’s wait half an hour.”
In an instant, Zhuge Liang’s eyes widened.
The fireman was the one who felt sorry for the soldiers’ deaths more than anyone else. However, such a person was saying to leave it a little longer.
“If you miss the time, you may not be able to save it.”
When Zhuge Liang and Eulji showed concern, the fireman turned his head to look at Lupo, Woogeum, and other generals who were warming up while swinging their spears on their horses.
After drinking the elixir given by the painter, Yeopo and Woogeum’s skills improved more than before.
“I think Liang is right. But for now, a little patience will be the way to save more people. If we rush out to save a few more people right away and the meaning fades, it will be troublesome, so let’s leave after half a second.”
“All right.”
Zhuge Liang wanted to say that he might regret it, but he closed his mouth when he saw the painter’s eyes slowly closing.
‘Looking at him at a time like this, he seems more calm than me.’
* * *
‘Kwan-woo and Jang-gi…. I’ll fight again after a long time. At that time, I had no choice but to withdraw because a guy named Liu Bei joined me, but today I will cut off the lifeline.’
Fighting spirit subtly bloomed in Yeo Bu’s body as she warmed up by swinging her spear lightly.
In fact, even before he drank the elixir given by the painter, he was a master with few opponents at the time.
“Woman General. I haven’t even been given an order to participate yet, so what if I start to speculate like that? It doesn’t matter to us, but aren’t the soldiers’ horses nervous?”
Whoops.
As Woo Jin swung his spear and scattered the speculation that was about to grow stronger, several of the horses ridden by the cavalrymen in the rear raised their feet and began to retell.
“Well, I was a little excited. Thinking of meeting again with the people I had speared in the past after a long time gave me strength in my shoulders without realizing it.”
“Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are enough opponents to get excited about. But I hope you don’t take it all by yourself. Because I wonder if they are as great as their reputation.”
“They…”
“Come on!”
At that moment, one of the riders next to Zhuge Liang waved a red flag.
As the spirit waved, Yeo Bu stopped what he was trying to say to Woo-geum and started to run in the direction where the defeated commanders had disappeared.
‘They don’t want to yield to anyone.’
Lu Bu didn’t tell Wu Jin what was inside.
food.
For a moment, a small smile appeared on the corners of Woojin’s lips.
‘I know how you feel, but my body is itching to the point of wanting to fight them too. So you’ll have to give me at least one.’
Woojin increased the speed of the horse he was riding, as if not to be outdone by Lu Bu.
