Episode 340. Unexpected gift from Yeo Pu (1)
Eulji received a report that 150,000 troops on the border of Hongnong’s army were retreating to Luoyang Fortress, and rushed to Uicheong where Obo and Idangji were located.
In Uicheong, the disciples of the painter, medical doctors, and Uino and medical women were busy treating patients.
Eulji came out of the operating room, took off his blood-soaked scrubs, and approached Ohbo, who was washing his hands with distilled liquor and chewing on rice balls put into his mouth by a doctor.
If there are many patients in a hurry, there is no time to eat leisurely, so whenever there is free time, a doctor has to take care of something to eat.
“Oh, Senator.”
“Yes, my lord.”
Eulji paused for a moment as Ohbo mumbled his answer and took care of him so that he could swallow the rice.
And after that, he opened his mouth.
“The soldiers who went out to the border area of Hongnong County are retreating here.”
“yes? Could it be that you were pushed back by the Xiliang Army?”
“It’s not that they were pushed back, they say they’re retreating according to the order of the main attacker.”
“is that so? Good luck then.”
“The situation is fortunate, but we are not comfortable either. Maybe we need to transport patients.”
Eulji murmured slightly.
“Half of the patients who are now bedridden are still waiting for surgery. If you transport them by wagon, they will not be able to withstand the shock and will die. At least five days after surgery, you can even ride a carriage.”
When Obo made a confused expression, Eulji let out a long sigh.
In fact, it was common for people to die in war, so no one expressed dissatisfaction even if they died while moving in a wagon. However, the fireman’s order was to keep the patient’s safety in mind.
‘Yeah, maybe I have to show how I’m trying to save them, so the soldiers will have more strength to fight.’
Eulji made up his mind before continuing.
“Then, how many days will it take for all of the remaining operations to be completed?”
“Even if you stay up all night, it will take three days.”
“Three days… I understand.”
As Eulji nodded and tried to turn around, Ohbo opened his mouth with a slightly puzzled expression.
“If the situation is so urgent that you have to move to another castle, don’t be too mindful of the sick. If more soldiers die on the battlefield trying to save the sick here, what’s the point of delaying time?”
“I was asking just in case. It’s not a situation where you can move so quickly just yet, so don’t worry and focus on your treatment.”
“All right.”
After receiving and eating the last piece of rice ball handed to him by the doctor, Ohbo wore gloves and a mask on his hands. And hurriedly went into the operating room.
I don’t know how the situation will change, but I’m doing my best in what I can do now.
As Eulji saw the disappearing misinformation, he suddenly remembered the image of a painter from the past.
‘The time when Joo-Gong was the most like Joo-Gong was when he was treating patients. When will this turbulent world end?’
Eulji’s heart felt stuffy as if a stone had been placed on his chest after hearing that the fireman held the spear at the forefront and acted like a general.

Firer slashed the former and defeated his army.
As the battle turned, the previous soldiers ran out of the ranks and scattered in all directions, but Hwabu, unlike usual, did not pursue them and advanced directly toward Hadong-gun.
I was heading towards Hadong-gun for a while when I saw dozens of people riding horses with white flags planted on their backs from a distance.
“Stop.”
Bangtong sent his generals and soldiers to greet them.
“I say that I am a close friend who has come to deliver the letter of the governor of Hadong-gun, Seongryeom.”
The person who seemed to be the leader of the group prostrated himself toward the fireman and held out a letter from his bosom.
“The Codex of the Holy Ghost? bring it.”
“yes.”
When Jangsu received and brought the letter, Bangtong inspected it and presented it to the fireman.
The painter made a slightly absurd expression after opening the entire book and reading it.
“Is Dowi Seongryeom surrendering to me?”
“Yes, sir. After hearing the news of General Yeopo’s death, our Dowi-nim was deeply saddened and wrote me a letter.”
“I know that Dowi Seongryeom was once one of the eight generals of General Yeopo. However, after losing the previous battle with He Nae-gun, when General Yeo-po became my subordinate, didn’t he turn into a general of Mupyeong-hu?”
“At that time, Eosa Daebu-nim had the official title of Eosa-seung, but he was only a member of the council. But now, since he is a dignified feudal lord, Dowi Seongryeom is trying to serve Eosadaebu, following the service of General Yeopo.”
“Since the situation is getting worse, are you looking for a way to live?”
As the painter looked at it with abstract eyes, the person who brought the letter fell flat on his face.
“If our guards find a way to live, even if they give up Hadong-gun, they can run away to Ha-nae-gun. Please consider that there is no need to send me away.”
The painter thought for a moment and then looked at the broadcasting tube.
“What do you think of the military?”
“Although Hadong-gun has few soldiers, if you are looking for a way to survive, just like he said, run away to Ha-nae-gun. However, since I sent someone like this, I think it would be good to meet and make a decision.”
“Hmm~. It would be better to judge by looking at the castle. Hey, what did you say your name was?”
“We call it friendship, and we are receiving the trumpet job.”
“Go to Sungryeom and tell him to come to me with only ten disguises if you really want to surrender.”
“All right. I will ask the Dowi that.”
Hwabu sent Chin-Gak and those who came with him back and slowly marched toward Hadong-gun.
After advancing about a corner, they saw a general riding a horse running from afar.
The fireman guessed that he was a saint.
As Seongryeom got closer to the fireman’s camp, he got off his horse, put down the spear from his bosom, and walked towards the fireman.
“Seongryeom, the guard of Hadong-gun, is meeting Eosa Daebu.”
As the Holy Spirit raised a military rite, the fireman looked at the Sungryeom’s army lined up in the distance.
Perhaps originally, they were coming to fight with themselves after receiving the Parbalma from the past.
“Didn’t you hear that you were to come with ten escorts?”
“I heard.”
“Then why did you come alone?”
“I thought that only when I came alone would Eosa Daebu-nim believe in my sincerity.”
“If you wanted to surrender to me, you could have done it a long time ago, but why did you do it now? If you do this, it seems like you are in danger, so it looks like you are going to live!”
“Eosa Daebu, I’m sorry if General Lupo hadn’t been tricked into dying by Xia Hu-yeon and the previous cunning trick, I’m sorry, but I would have remained the general of Wu Pyeong-hu until the end.”
“Are you saying you didn’t know Xia Huyan and the previous scheme?”
“If I had known, I would not have stayed silent.”
“That means that you will betray Mupyeonghu.”
“no. This could be called betrayal in front of Hu Pyeong, but it is not a betrayal to me because I am following Hu Hu. Above all, the reason why I did not follow Onhu but followed Mupyeonghu was because Onhu wanted to spend his whole life escorting Eosa Daebu, who is a member of the legislature. But now, Eosa Daebu-nim, served by Onhu, has become the great monarch, and the person who used to be Empress Wu-pyeong’s hand killed my lord through cunning.
The painter quietly looked into Sungryeom’s eyes.
‘No matter how much you look at it, it doesn’t seem like you’re giving up falsely to live!’
Bangtong and other generals next to him were also showing positive reactions.
The fireman made up his mind and opened his mouth.
“good night. I will take you as my subordinate.”
hair stone.
Seongryeom immediately knelt down and prostrated himself toward the fireman.
“I will only be loyal to Eosa Daebu for the rest of my life.”
“I will believe you. Are the 30,000 soldiers behind you all following your wishes?”
“Your master.”
The fireman’s eyes widened slightly.
Although the general who leads the group may turn around, strictly speaking, all of them are Cao Cao’s subordinates, so I thought that there would of course be resistance.
“Among them, there must be a lot of people who ate the rust of Wuheunghu, but are they all following your opinion?”
“Even though he ate the green of Wu Ping, everyone he cared about went to calm Qi and Yu. There are 30,000 soldiers left behind to stop the 250,000 Pungik army. We know that we are not fools and that we are half abandoned.”
“Hadong Hanae Hanam. If you add up the troops of the 3rd Army, aren’t they 100,000? Isn’t that enough to stop the Xiliang army?”
“I might be able to stop it. But how many of them will survive?”
“…..”
“Mupyeonghu’s forces are largely divided into two categories. Those who were subordinate to Mupyeonghu from the beginning and those who were captured and converted. Of course, among those who converted, those who made great achievements or excelled in martial arts received good treatment and were incorporated into the main stream, but most of those who did not were left here and used as arrow holders. Xiahou Yan and the former army are the main stream of Wu Ping, and we, as you can see, are drifting.”
While listening to Seongnyeom’s words, Hwabu remembered the time when Jojo lost a lot of soldiers due to Gahu’s scheme.
The soldiers scattered in all directions did not return to Cao Cao, but most of them came to him and applied for conversion. All of them were Cheongju-gun, who was treated poorly in Jojo’s camp.
It’s just like back then.
As expected, factions exist everywhere, and there are those who can join the faction and those who cannot. Unfortunately, they don’t seem to belong there.
“good night. Like Cao Cao, I will not discriminate against you and will always remember that I am a subordinate of General Lü Bu. Get up and go to your men together.”
“Your master.”
When the fireman went with Seongryeom to the place where the soldiers of Hadong-gun were, the generals and generals who had lined up in advance raised a salute in unison.
“I know the Eosa Daebu.”
“insect!”
Looking at the 30,000 soldiers led by Seong-ryeom, the fireman thought that what he gained without shedding a drop of blood might be the last gift Yeo-bu gave him.
‘General Yeopo. I will never forget it for the rest of my life!’

Upon hearing the situation in Luoyang, Cao Cao jumped up from his chair and was so surprised that he asked again.
“What? Say it again.”
“Hahuyeon Dowi turned his troops toward Hadong County and attacked Luoyangseong Fortress, where he was holding an inauguration ceremony, killing Governor Hwabok and Lu Bu, and burning them fiercely.”
“her! What does this mean? Why is Ha Hu-yeon…”
Jojo slumped in his seat, devastated.
“Did you do something stupid like this?”
He couldn’t finish talking because of the ministers around him, but it felt like the sky was turning yellow.
Just as water once spilled cannot be put into a bowl, what has already happened cannot be undone.
‘I knew that Yeoni’s heart for me was terrible, but how could she do it without my order… Haa~. What shall I do with this?’
