Episode 169. Jangyang’s technique (2)
“Uncle, the fireman is said to be your enemy, but why do you want to kill him? If you leave it to me, I will bring you the neck right away, even today.”
“No, your intentions for me are imaginary, but I have to cut his throat myself to relieve my stomach.”
“If Uncle Jeong wants to go, take the cavalryman Li Baek with him.”
“Two hundred each?”
“Your uncle’s safety is more important than our lives.”
“But if an army of that size moves, the enemy might come after you…” When
Jangyang hesitated a little, Jangsun pounded her chest as if trying to make up for her earlier mistake.
“Before Uncle moves, we will provoke the enemy first. Then you won’t know that your uncle stole the soldiers. And even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to afford to pursue it.”
“I knew it. Since your strategy seems plausible, I will take two hundred cavalrymen with me.”
Zhang Yang put on his armor and mounted the horse himself when his confidant informed him that the cavalrymen had finished arming themselves.
Zhang Ge, Jangsun’s brother, immediately raised an army and ordered an attack on Gyeseong.
“Then don’t go.”
“yes. I will pray for your safe return.”
“I’m only going to cut the heads of thirty people, but I take two hundred horsemen. If I’m not safe, I’m an idiot.”
“…..”
When Zhang Yang took his cavalry and disappeared, Zhang Ge Zhang’s brother also went to the battlefield and encouraged his men.
* * *
As Eoyang’s army attacked Gyeseong, Daeju’s army led by Gwan-woo and Equipment from the rear attacked Eoyang’s rear.
“Those rat-like bastards are annoying us again. Brother, this time I will follow them to the end and slaughter them all.”
At Zhang Shun’s words, Zhang Ge shook his head.
“If Gyeseong is captured, those bastards aren’t even worth worrying about, so chase them away and come back. My uncle also went outside, so there’s no need to overdo it.”
“I understand.”
Jangsun led 5,000 cavalrymen and went out to meet Daejugun.
After a while, Jangsun shouted loudly when he met Daeju’s army, who was attacking Eoyang’s rear.
“You bastards who are only good at running away, I will definitely kill you guys today!”
“Hmm, who can say that? Today, my wife will cut your throat.”
Jangsun had experienced through several battles that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei’s skills were excellent, so he did not send generals and pushed forward with 5,000 soldiers from the beginning.
“Everyone charge. Wipe them away.”
Dudududududu…
Jangsoon sent the generals and cavalrymen at once, and then looked at the situation from behind.
In fact, he was not very strong, so although he was wearing armor, he did not stand in the vanguard when fighting broke out.
“uh! They don’t run away this time, they face each other! The soldiers weren’t even recruited, so what?”
Jangsun was puzzled when Daejugun didn’t run away as usual, but he thought it went well because the difference in troops was more than doubled anyway.
‘Okay, let’s wipe out all the annoying rats and attack Gyeseong comfortably.’
The fight between cavalry and cavalry in an instant was entangled with horse and spear against spear.
A fight where each other kills each other.
At the beginning of such a group fight, it is difficult to tell whether an ally or an enemy is dead, even if you look closely. After a while, I was able to check the charter.
Jangsoon, who was watching the bloody fight, was startled after about half an angle had passed.
Fuhuaaak-!
The head of Gwadeok, who could be said to be his right arm, was separated from his neck and soared into the air.
“uh! And, and, the general… How can such a dog thing happen…”
Kwaaaaaaa!
After a while, Hyung-cheol, who could be called his left arm, fell off the horse and saw his head bent.
“Even the tongue-type general… What is this? Come to think of it, my soldiers are being pushed back!”
Jangsun finally got a better idea of the situation on the battlefield.
While his own generals who were supposed to lead the cavalrymen were dying one after another, the other generals were holding a slaughter party by running between the cavalrymen.
“Retreat after! retreat Call the headquarters immediately for rescuers.”
Jangsoon hurriedly turned around and ran ahead.
A belated drum sounded and the soldiers were notified of their retreat, but many more died in that short time, and again many casualties were incurred during the retreat.
When the younger brother ran away in a panic, Janggeo turned 5,000 soldiers who were attacking Gyeseong back to face Daejugun.
When Daejugun added 5,000 soldiers, he could no longer pursue and retreated.
* * *
“As expected, my prediction was correct. With Master Eosa’s escorts deployed, the tide of the battle turns in an instant!”
A smile bloomed on Liu Bei’s face, who was watching the battlefield from atop a tree.
Although it was seen from a distance, it seemed that a thousand enemy cavalrymen had been slaughtered in one battle.
It was a huge achievement even with only two longevity added.
What Liu Bei was looking at was also seeing the painter.
Even without climbing a tree, the painter could see many things because his eyes were better than those of ordinary people.
‘As expected, the power of longevity is important on that scale. What is that troop anyway? Are you trying to hit the back? No matter how much mobility and stealth are important, it seems that there are only about 200 cavalrymen, so can you hit the rear of over 2,000 cavalry?’
The fireman looked around the battlefield and tilted his head when he saw a small number of troops leaving the battlefield and turning away.
Feeling curious, I continued to keep an eye on nature, and as time passed, a danger warning began to ring in my brain.
The 200 or so cavalrymen who knew they would be aiming for Daeju’s rear were heading towards Bongsan for some reason.
The only thing here is the fireman’s makeshift hospital room.
The fight is in full swing, but there is no crazy commander going to plunder the village.
“Why this way? Could it be that they are targeting us right now?”
If an army is coming, whether you are aiming for it or not, it is best to avoid it!
“Bishop B. Right now, the tent… No, leave the tent as it is and put only the patients in the carriage.”
“Sister-in-law. Why are you like this all of a sudden?”
“About 200 cavalrymen from the Eoyang Army are coming this way now.”
“yes! Oh I see. Everyone heard it. I have to move right away, so take only the important things.”
“yes.”
The executioners moved in unison, loaded the patient into a carriage and mounted it on a horse.
“Soldiers are coming, so move as fast as you can!”
“yes.”
The fireman rode in front, and Okju and Eulji followed behind, preparing for possible cavalry pursuit.
Liu Bei moved while riding in a carriage.
“Eosa Seung-nim, why are the cavalrymen of the Eoyang Army aiming at us?”
“Well, I don’t know either. But it can be dangerous, so avoid it in advance.”
The painter gathered his brows and thought for a moment.
‘Did Zhang Yang find out that I was here?’
It was a sudden thought, but since there were soldiers from Eoyang Army among those who were treated in the medical room, I thought that their location might have been exposed.
‘If Jangyang is leading the group… I won’t give up.’
This is Jangyang, who was sent from Hwangdo to Salsu. If it is your goal, you will pursue it to the end.
‘First of all, let’s separate the patients. If it were Yang Yang, he wouldn’t be chasing patients.’
“Bishop B. Take the wagon carrying the patient to the side road.”
“All right.”
After Eulji gave the order, several of the executioners drove the wagon and left by another road.
Liu Bi, who was riding in the wagon, said he would fight, but the fireman chased him away, telling him not to talk nonsense.
“If they keep chasing us… can we get them out?”
At the fireman’s question, Eulji pondered for a moment and then shook his head.
“The cavalrymen’s mobility is better than ours, so it’s going to be hard to get rid of them.”
“Then we must fight. Is there a good place nearby for a fight?”
“I have a place in mind just in case… but I don’t think it will be possible because there are so many enemies.”
“Anyway, we have to fight in the best possible position, so let’s go there.”
“yes. Please follow me.”
As Eulji took the lead, the fireman, disciples, and executioners followed.
‘I hoped that the secret of the wagon would not be known, but today I can’t help it.’
In fact, the fireman was not afraid of 200 enemy cavalry because he had a wagon.
The reason why I ran away was not because I was afraid of not wanting to fight. However, if he was a person who absolutely wanted to kill himself, he had no choice but to kill him.
* * *
“The rat-like guy noticed and ran away. Seeing as they couldn’t even walk the tent, they seem to have run away in a hurry… They probably couldn’t have gone very far. Follow the trail.”
The cavalry led by Zhang Yang pointed in one direction. From the wheels of the carriage to the hooves of the horses, there was nothing left to look for.
After driving the horses for a long time, I saw a carriage and a herd of horses running frantically in the distance.
“I don’t know if it’s a horse, but there is a limit to escaping with a carriage. Let’s go!”
Zhang Yang hit the horse’s belly with both feet and sped it up.
“My queen, a carriage carrying some patients ran away on a side road. What should I do with that?”
At that time, one of his servants rode up to the side and made a report.
“If it’s a wagon carrying patients… you take 20 cavalrymen and kill them all.”
“All right.”
After sending his confidant, Zhang Yang continued to pursue the fire department.
After a while, an unexpected sight came into Jangyang’s eyes as he chased after him screaming excitedly.
The escaping wagon stopped, and the riders turned their heads and set up camp.
“Hahaha- you’re going to fight them right now?”
“I guess so.”
“The thought of taking on us with only 30 troops is going to drive me crazy with laughter.”
“I’m afraid I’ll get caught if I run anyway, so I’m trying my last desperate effort.”
“Great. Wipe it all away.”
The cavalry under Zhang Yang’s command rushed fearlessly.
The distance that had been far became closer in an instant, and it became a distance that could be hit even with a spear.
Push-Shoo-Shoot!
Suddenly, dozens of arrows flew from the roof of the carriage in succession.
“omg! What is this…”
Caang!
Zhang Yang reflexively swung his spear and deflected the arrow, but the other cavalrymen did not.
There was someone who hurriedly lifted the shield, but the arrows were pouring down, aiming at random people as well as horses.
* * *
Jump!
Eulji and the executioners, who were measuring arrows in their bows, opened their mouths and did not close for a while.
‘How could there be so many arrows in a horse carriage…’
In addition, the range of arrows was much longer than a person could shoot.
‘Because there is a certain device in that carriage…’
Eulji guessed the device because he thought a little more deeply than the executioners. Then, in disbelief, he looked at the roof of the wagon spitting arrows.
Dozens of small, thin tubes protruded from it.
‘I heard that Master Eosa’s disciples went in. Are they adjusting the arrow shooting device?’
I thought it was because the arrows didn’t vomit from the coffins in the other direction.
‘If there were a hundred wagons like this… I wouldn’t be afraid of tens of thousands of troops!’
I got goosebumps.
