I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon Chapter 266

Episode 266. (1)

The news of the fall of Sopae Castle reached the ears of Do-gyeom, a member of the Western Zhou who was fighting against Ye-ju-gun in Habi-seong.

“what? Sopaeseong fell?”

“Has Liu Bei been governor of Sopaeseong already?”

“how?”

“I heard that there were 100,000 troops in the 3rd defeated army and both countries, but they must all be rags…..” “

…..”

No one was surprised to hear the messenger’s report.

Dokyeom frowned at the surprised ministers.

“I thought that Liu Bei would repel the defeated army and use that momentum to come to our aid…”

Looking at the military advance, his expression became quite serious.

DK waited for Jindeung to open his mouth after he stopped talking. However, Jindeung did not open his mouth about what he was thinking.

DK cleared his throat and opened his mouth again.

“Kerham~. Jin military. I guess I shouldn’t stick to Mercury alone? What would you like to do?”

“If Tae-Soo Yoo was pierced, the rear would be dangerous. I think it would be better to switch to the offensive even if we suffer a little loss.”

“Now? Do you think the danger is too great to open the castle gates and fight?”

“The siege warfare of Bon City is twice as difficult as the defense warfare. In fact, Yeju-gun and our strength were almost perfect, but Yeju-gun lost a lot of strength in the last 15 days of fighting, and we had a lot of stored strength, so we opened the gates in all four directions at once and sent all the soldiers out at once to launch an all-out attack. If you do, you will surely achieve a great victory.”

“All troops? You don’t even want to leave a reserve?”

“yes. It would be better to drive hard except for the minimum number of troops guarding the gate. That way, you can do a lot of damage at once.”

“It looks like they’re going to try their best in a one-on-one match… Why are you suddenly overdoing it?”

“If Yu Tae-soo failed to defend, it means that the power of the defeated army that attacked was stronger than I expected. It may be difficult to move now as it has not been long since the castle was captured, but when time passes and they regroup and join Yeju-gun, who is attacking this castle… then it may already be irreversible.”

When Jindeung predicted the fall of Habiseong, not only Dokyeom but also the ministers’ eyes widened.

“Certainly it could be.”

“It has to come at once, like a big wave crashing. You have to put an end to it at once to make Yeju-gun freak out and have him return to Yeju.”

When Jindeung finished speaking, Dokyeom nodded his head and gave the order to the general to prepare for an all-out offensive.

Recognizing the seriousness of the situation, none of the representatives presented a different opinion.

* * *

Princess Yeju Jasa was taken aback when the Western Lords, who had been sticking to Suseong for more than 15 days, opened all the gates of Havi Castle and attacked.

It was a tactical failure.

At first, Yejugun surrounded and attacked the entire Habiseong Fortress, but when it could not be penetrated no matter how much it attacked, it changed its strategy and concentrated on one side.

Because of this, the soldiers were concentrated only on the south gate, but when enemies suddenly poured out from all sides, they were surrounded in reverse.

Being surrounded in a battle between large armies meant being at an absolute disadvantage unless there was overwhelming force.

In particular, as arrows flew from all sides, Yeju’s damage was so great that it was hard to imagine.

After a while, a hand-to-hand battle broke out, but Yeju-gun, already weakened, was unable to block the enemy’s brunt. Like a domino phenomenon, one pillar collapsed and the other began to collapse.

In hand-to-hand combat, the Milini cavalrymen could not exert their strength and tangled up with each other, further increasing the damage.

Not even an hour had passed since the fighting began, but Yeju’s inferiority was conspicuously revealed.

“It looks like the main forces will have to retreat and reorganize their battle lines.”

The princess also hastily agreed to Heo Jeong’s words while looking at the battlefield.

Even if he could see himself, he was unable to properly prepare for the enemy’s all-out attack, and the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable.

“If you had such a huge army, why did you only defend yourself?”

“It seems that we have been waiting for our strength to run out. Commander, please give me an order.”

“I got it. Retreat!”

“All troops retreat! retreat!”

When the princess gave the order, the drummer beat the drum and the rider waved the flag to signal retreat.

However, it wasn’t long before Yejugun came to regret the retreat order.

“If you knew this was going to happen, don’t retreat…”

A look of deep regret appeared on the face of the princess as she fled while being escorted by the demonstrators.

I thought that if I retreated to some extent, the Western Zhou army would stop the attack, but the retreat that started yesterday afternoon continued through the night and into the morning.

“In this way, only the damage of allies is accumulated. Is there any way?”

The greatest damage in war was when they fled backwards rather than when they fought back. The damage suffered in one evening was greater than the damage suffered during the last fifteen days of siege.

Heo Cheong gritted his teeth as he saw the princess whose face had become as if the world had collapsed.

“The situation has already gotten out of hand. You can survive only by requesting reinforcements from Sopae Fortress and taking a retreat toward Sopae Fortress.”

“I have to go to Sopae Castle for five days, but you mean I have to endure their pursuit for five days?”

“If we wait until night and scatter our soldiers in several directions, the enemies won’t be able to pursue them all at once. So if you pass tonight, you will find a way to live.”

“Yes, I will live, but the damage to the soldiers will be greater. But there is no other way.”

The princess clicked her tongue and gave instructions to the generals.

“Yoo Dok-woo. By any chance, Tae-soo, are you still at Uicheong?”

As Eulji and Zhuge Liang hurriedly searched for the fireman, Liu Bei nodded.

“A little while ago, one of the students came to see me and said that there was a patient who couldn’t be saved with their own skills.”

“is it so. All right.”

As Eulji and Zhuge Liang hurriedly went to Uicheong, Liu Bi, who was curious, limped to the side.

“But what is it that makes you look so urgent?”

“The headquarters of Yeju-gun, which was attacking Habi Castle, was defeated by a counterattack and is said to be coming this way. So I’m going to discuss countermeasures with Tae-soo.”

“Habiseong, of course, is not an easy castle to attack, but Yeju’s forces were not normal, so was it such a crushing defeat?”

“That’s right. I don’t know the details, but they say the troops are almost cut in half.”

“Half a piece? 200,000 troops?”

Liu Bei widened her eyes in surprise, and Zhuge Liang shook her head.

“100,000. The soldiers who attacked Habi Castle were 100,000 led by the princess directly, and the rest were attacking other small castles in Xuzhou.”

“her! But how could 100,000 be defeated so easily…”

Liu Bei shook her head in vain.

At the same time, I realized that I was hearing this kind of information for the first time.

These days he was being excluded from the entire tactical meeting. It’s probably because he hasn’t made up his mind yet. I am grateful for saving my life and allowing me to leave at any time, but it felt strange to be so alienated.

In fact, the painter asked Liu Bei about his intention several times after that. Even then, Yubi couldn’t decide. So, it’s all your fault that this situation came about.

‘Seeing how sad I am, it seems that I am quite a small person.’

Liu Bei followed the two in a strange sense of shame.

“Meet the soldier and Eul Danju. Ah, Yu Dok-woo came with you too.”

When the three people appeared, the gatekeeper of Uicheong moderately took the military rites.

“Where is Tae-soo?”

“You are now in the operating room.”

“I have urgent news, so tell me to see you soon.”

“yes.”

When the painter was operating, no one was allowed to enter the operating room carelessly, regardless of command or rank. It had become a kind of custom. Because of this, I had to tell the people who could go outside like this.

When the gatekeeper spoke to one of the members, the member went into the operating room and came out a moment later.

“Meet General Jegal, Eul Danju, and Yu Dokwoo.”

“When will your governor come out?”

“Tae Soo-nim told me that since this is a very important moment, I can’t come out, so if you are in a hurry, Jegal and Eul Dan-joo should discuss it and make a decision.”

“This is a very important matter, so please tell Tae-joo that it is a matter that must be decided.”

“All right. I will offer you one more request.”

The congressman went back into the operating room and came out still alone. He approached Zhuge Liang and bowed his head with an apologetic expression.

“He said that the surgery would be over in about half an hour, and he told me to discuss it with the general. He also said that no matter what decision you make, you will follow it, so if you are in a hurry, discuss it and implement it as it is decided.”

“I can’t. All right.”

Zhuge Liang let out a short sigh, but on the other hand, he was proud of the fact that he trusted him this far. He greeted the legislator and returned to the government building to call the generals.

Liu Bi followed Zhuge Liang and Eulji into the meeting room.

The two continued to follow Liu Bei, but he didn’t say much as if he didn’t care.

After a while, the generals, including Yeo Bu, gathered in the meeting room one after another.

Among the generals, there were also Guan-wu and Jang-gi, and they seemed to be friendly with the other generals, and they were hanging out without hesitation.

“uh! It’s been a while since you attended a meeting.”

Liu Bei nodded lightly at the words of the equipment.

In fact, I was a little pressured because I was not in the position of being invited, but fortunately Zhuge Liang and Eulji did not say much, perhaps because they were thinking of his face.

“It happened. Did I care too much about something else?”

“It’s because you’re busy.”

Equipment smiled brightly, as if Liu Bei was happy to attend the meeting.

“Looks like everyone is here, so let’s start the meeting.”

At that time, Zhuge Liang lightly tapped the table with a long hand, and the generals sat down.

“The reason why I called the meeting so urgently was to deliver the news that the Yeo Nam Army, which was attacking Habi Fortress, was defeated. Yeo Nam-gun is now retreating, and it seems that the direction has been set in our direction.”

Zhuge Liang did not call the Yeoju-gun the Yeoju-gun, but the Yuenam-gun, which was directly commanded by the princess of Yejujasa.

Although the change in title may seem insignificant, strictly speaking, it could be said that it was a groundwork to make him, who could be called a boss, be recognized as being on the same level as a fireman.

Liu Bei’s eyes widened as she looked at Zhuge Liang.
