Episode 287. Pumpkin rolls in through vines (2)
Liu Bei’s sworn brother calmly waited for the gate to open.
In fact, as part of the strategy, the soldiers attacking Dongmun were not as numerous compared to other places, and they were not very aggressive in their attacks. They were even scattered here and there like a ragtag, showing cracks.
long time to do that.
Suddenly, the gates burst open, and cavalrymen on horseback poured out.
Kwaaang.
The spirit of the longevity and cavalrymen in the forefront was quite remarkable.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaa…!
However, as soon as they came out, the movements of the soldiers suddenly became alert. They, who seemed ragtag, backed away in an instant and immediately took out their bows and started raining down arrows.
Thunderbolt and Jinran, who had opened the way ahead, realized that they were waiting for them to come out only when they saw the rain of arrows pouring down.
“Damn, our intentions have been read!”
But now I can’t go back.
“Follow me all troops!”
Brain beat kicked off his horse and swung his spear at the enemy commander who stood in his way.
Quaang!
The window was blocked as if a rock had hit it.
Brainstorm’s eyes widened spontaneously. In order to pierce Saint-Ro, he brought out the strength he had been suckling and hit the spear, but the opponent blocked the spear too calmly.
No, this isn’t blocking it, is it being pushed by the hardness?
‘Who the hell is that so strong?’
The thunderbolt quickly retrieved the spear and swung it once more.
“her! This guy is still out of his mind!”
It bounced back its own spear with a thunderous roar. I never thought that someone so strong could exist.
A name popped into his mind.
‘Fly? I see! This guy is a womanizer!’
It was only then that he remembered what he had heard from Sejak that there was Yeoju in Yeoju.
“Yes, you bastard is a woman!”
As expected, this place was not Saint Lo, but the path dug by the enemy. It felt far away at the moment, but next to a crisis, there is always an opportunity.
“Puhahaha! follicle? Do I look like General Lupo, you bastard!”
“what? Isn’t it a follicle? So who are you?”
“I…”
“What are you doing, Rain? Are you still hanging out there?”
At that time, a long-bearded general came running, slashing the necks of the two horsemen.
Brain beat was frightened when another enemy general joined.
It’s already daunting even with just one person, but if you add an author who looks unusual, you won’t be able to do it.
“Come to think of it, I don’t need to tell you my name to someone like you who will die soon. Just die.”
Suaaang.
At that moment, the enemy commander’s spear aimed at the head with terrifying momentum.
My heart was in a hurry, so I tried to turn around and run away by pulling back the horse.
Cacao.
The moment he hit the spear, his grip loosened and the spear left his hand.
‘Keugh! This kind of nonsense…..’
No matter how much he backtracked and received it, he lost a spear that was as good as one body when he had been on the battlefield for more than ten years.
It was more shameful than dying.
I hurriedly pulled the sword from my waist and tried to block the enemy commander’s spear, but before that, my heart was burning.
hooked
The thick armor was pierced at once, and the sword of the thunderbolt lost its power after being drawn halfway.
“It’s been a while, so I just relaxed a bit. Brother, what is it that you catch a guy like this and come all the way?”
Through the ears of the brain beat, I could hear what the enemy commander was saying to another enemy commander who was approaching.
“When I came to help, they said they were doing nothing.”
“Brain General! Yes, these guys…”
Then, I saw Jinran running from the other side brandishing a spear. Perhaps he came to avenge his death after the brain beat was killed.
“gaga. Just go…”
Brain Pak squeezed out his last strength and gestured to Jinran not to come, but Jinran seemed to have misunderstood the gesture and accelerated his horse.
When Jinran came running, a long-bearded general brandished a spear to greet him, and sparks flew right away, but soon the helmet sank into the spearhead and he fell off his horse.
“La Ran…..”
“Tsk, the dying man is coming!”
As soon as the enemy commander, who had driven a spear into his chest, waved his hand, the pain that felt like fire disappeared for an instant, and the string of thoughts was cut off.
Iron flip.
Jang Gi-gi, who had split the chest of the brain beat, saw Guan-wu crushing the enemy general on the floor with a horse’s hoof, then rushed again toward the enemy soldiers.
After seeing the death of the two commanders, the enemy soldiers were frightened and fled in all directions, but there was no place to run to in all directions.
As Guan Yu and Zhang Fei ran rampant and soldiers rushed from all sides, the soldiers who had opened the east gate and started to return to the east gate, but they had already crossed the river of death.

“What! Su Shuchun Castle fell?”
Upon hearing the news of the fall of Shuchun Castle, Yuan Shu’s mouth dropped open.
It has been less than ten days since I heard the news that Yeju-gun had advanced toward Shuchunseong. That was enough for Yeju-gun to barely reach Suchun for an hour or so. However, when I heard the news of the fall, I was just full of energy.
“Your master.”
“How could it have already been captured? Are all Yeju-kun’s horses at least a Chollima?”
“It is said that Yeju-gun moved by waterway by boat rather than by land route.”
“Numbers! You mean there was a ship to carry that many troops in Yeju?”
“I don’t know about that, but it seems there was.”
Yuan Shu shook his head with a devastated expression.
“Uh, how… No matter how many times they came by boat, Yeju only had 70,000 soldiers. There was no way the castle had been completely emptied, and there were only 50,000 at most.
“It is said that Cao Cao added 30,000 troops. Also, the preparations for the siege were so great that it was difficult to even properly defend.”
“Jojo! Unexpectedly, the eunuch’s grandson stabbed me in the back of the head! Listed army.”
“Your master.”
“How much are our soldiers now?”
“140,000.”
In response to Sanggun Gi-ryeong’s answer, Won-sul gritted his teeth to the point of bleeding.
After entering the Jiujiang Army, where Shuchunseong was located, there were no more attacks by the Western Zhou soldiers or Sun Ce’s attacks, but in exchange for coming here, 20,000 more soldiers were lost in a few days.
“If you have 140,000, you will be able to recapture the castle, right?”
“We have enough troops, but many of them are injured and most of all, they cannot eat properly… Their morale is very low.”
“How many troops do you have left?”
“There are less than 500 seats left.”
One sack of grain could feed about 100 soldiers for a day. Therefore, 500 seats is not enough to feed 140,000 soldiers for a day.
“Have the people who went to get the military rice not come yet?”
“I’m putting a flue in all directions and asking about the military… but it doesn’t seem reasonable.”
“What about Yeonwa Sangdan? Didn’t they keep building relationships with us? Is it that Yeonwa Sangdan can’t reach you?”
“yes.”
Wonsul gnashed his teeth without realizing it.
Although it was said that he had entered Gugu-gun, he still had to go 3 more days to Shuchunseong.
If we start starving tomorrow, it will be impossible to recapture the castle.
“Release the soldiers and go around the houses to get food.”
“yes! U.S. private house… Ju Gong This is the territory of Ju Gong. Food will be obtained, but then public sentiment…”
“Is public sentiment the problem now? Our shelter looks like it’s going to blow up. Sang Sang-gun, carry out the order.”
“I will follow your orders.”
Gi-ryeong relayed Won-sul’s orders to the generals, and the generals gave orders to the generals and centurion commanders.
“General, if I die of starvation, how can I plunder my hometown?”
The one who rebelled against Ki-ryeong’s order was none other than his manager Jeong-won.
“It is the name of the principal. Do not talk and practice.”
“I can’t. I can’t.”
“Do you think I am giving this order because I want to? Suchun Castle was captured by Yeju-gun, but isn’t it something we have to get back somehow?”
“But even so, how could he tell you to plunder his hometown?”
“It’s not looting, it’s borrowing food. After recapturing the castle, everyone will be rewarded, so hurry up and carry out your orders. Any further refusal will be accepted as protest.”
Squeak.
When Ki-ryeong drew his sword and aimed it at him, Jeong-won gnashed his teeth and turned away.
Gi-ryeong let out a long sigh as he watched the garden recede.
‘Although morale is still low, looting… Has the sky abandoned the main attacker?’
He thought that maybe Sun Ce’s attempt to steal the royal seal and become the new Emperor might have earned Heaven’s hatred. Otherwise, it could not have fallen to this extent in a single war.
While 20,000 soldiers plundered grain, Yuan Shu’s soldiers continued to march toward Shuchun. And Gi-ryeong, who ordered the plunder the next day, fell into a great shock. Of the 20,000 soldiers, only 3,000 returned with grain.
The remaining 17,000 soldiers ran away without even returning to the barracks.
Gi-ryeong did not report this fact to Yuan-sul, and with the grain brought by 3,000 soldiers, he saved 120,000 soldiers from starvation that day.

You could tell what situation Yuan Shu’s soldiers were in just by looking at the soldiers who came out to plunder the civilians.
“Jugong, I don’t think there’s any need to hit the enemies in the castle now.”
At Zhuge Liang’s words, the painter also nodded.
“I think so too. Wonsul really shows my bottom. You’re plundering my people. General.”
“Your master.”
“This time Liu Bei Guan Yu equipment. Did the three generals make a big contribution?”
“yes. We cut the heads of two fleeing enemy generals and took more than 10,000 enemy soldiers prisoner.”
“The momentum must have risen after setting the ball, so set up the vanguard so that you can set the ball one more time.”
At the words of the fireman, Lu Bu showed some concern.
“You have enough skills, but if you put too much effort into it, you might not be able to do it, right?”
“Where are those three brothers who are going to be this much? You don’t have to worry about that part.”
“All right. I take orders.”
“And let the soldiers who have been supported by Mupyeonghu remain in this castle.”
“yes? Even if you don’t have to defend the castle…”
Zhuge Liang smiled and said the will of the fireman.
“Following in the footsteps of Liu Bei’s brother-in-law, if the general shakes the enemy camp once, Yuan Shu’s army will collapse. Most of them will be our prisoners, but we don’t want to reveal that number to Mupyeonghu.”
“ah! The will of the military is right! I know. I will.”

Xiahudong was Cao Cao’s second cousin, and was cousin to Cao Hong and Cao In.
Joga and Hahuga were rare, perhaps because of their own vision of Naegi qigong, and those who were not masters were rare, and those with low academic achievement were rare.
However, Xia Hudong was one of the few people who belonged to that rare group.
He is in charge of the spleen and sama under the command of his cousin, Ha Hu-don, but he has not been promoted and has been walking in place so far because he has not been active.
One day, Xia Hudong was summoned by Guo Jia and given a special mission.
This time, Jojo was giving 30,000 soldiers to the hwabu of Yejusa, and he was told to follow the hwabu and watch how much he was doing.
to watch and report.
More precisely, it is to grasp the inner intention hidden in the sheep.
He was not good at martial arts or academics, so he had been paying attention to people around him, so that was what he did best.
