Episode 299. (2)
“Even though I was taken prisoner, I know that the tide is turning because I know how to look around. However, if I come up with a plan, I think we can win the war a little easier.”
The fireman already knew he had almost won the war.
If the troops who went by boat early in the morning a few days ago arrive in Gangneung ahead of Yu Pyo’s army and capture the capital, the Yu Pyo’s army would lose even its refuge.
Even so, I was curious about the monster’s plan.
“To give me a plan is to betray Liu Biao company, isn’t that a bit harsh? Betrayal in less than a few days.”
The painter deliberately shook the monster lightly with a disappointed expression.
“I also had no intention of betraying you. However, since I have eyes and ears, I can see and hear the steps of Eosa Daebu, and more than anything, there is one thing I want to ask for, so I came here. It is true that I have no integrity, but how would you like to hear my strategy and make a judgment?”
“Funny. Shall we hear what you ask first?”
The monster let out a sigh.
“Of course, he may be dead, but if my younger brother Goewol is captured in the future, please save him and keep him by the side of Eosa Daebu. He is a talented person.”
“Keep her by her side… that’s not going to depend on what you say, but it’s not difficult to save her. But isn’t it the order to talk about your place of residence first?”
“If someone like Eosa Daebu, who is kind and cares for the people, takes me in, I would be loyal, but I don’t think I will be able to do that because the rest of my life is not that long.”
“For the rest of my life… I got a scab on my forehead, but I don’t think it hurt too badly.”
“I have a small knack for peeping at the heavenly spirit, but I often have a headache because I am punished by God for overusing it. My headaches have been getting worse lately, it seems that the time when heaven is calling is near.”
The painter nodded, recalling what Bangtong had said a moment ago.
“You read the heavenly gi? Are you reading the weather?”
“I also read the weather and look at the arrival time by horoscope.”
The painter put on a slightly puzzled expression.
If you saw the arrival of the feudal lords, you should know what will happen to Liu Biao in this war, but isn’t the result too disastrous for not knowing that?
“Well, since there are dragon shamans, that might be the case. But if you have that kind of ability, shouldn’t the Liu Biao company you served shouldn’t be in trouble?”
“I objected, but I couldn’t go against public opinion because everyone else said it was the right time.”
“Don’t they know that you read the heavenly qi?”
“It’s not like I read the heavenly gi all the time… and I don’t always get it right… so it’s embarrassing.”
“Is that so? Then isn’t it hard to say that’s right?”
“It is.”
The monster laughed bitterly.
“Anyway, what the hell is that ploy?”
“By the time this army arrives at the Gangneung City Wall, there will be heavy rain and strong winds. It’s a wind that can break down a beautiful tree… Keuuuug…..”
The monster who was talking suddenly grabbed his head, groaned, and rolled on the floor.
“Looks like there’s really something wrong with your head.”
The fireman hurriedly got up from his seat and approached the monster.
“Please wait for a moment as the main gong Lee may use shallow moves to harm the main gong.”
When the enemy lion interrupted and alerted him, the fireman looked at the monster rolling on the floor with clairvoyance.
He had no metals on his body, and his body was that of a student who had not trained in martial arts.
However, the fireman waited until the enemy messenger finished checking the monster’s body. This is because if you stop knowing, the enemy lion will unwillingly neglect his duty.
“It doesn’t seem to have any weapons on it.”
When the enemy lion took a step to the side and put his hand on the hilt of the sword so that he could unleash the sword at any time, the fireman took the pulse of the monster’s hand and observed his head with clairvoyance.
The painter, who was looking at the monster who was suffering for a long time, frowned without realizing it.
‘Excessive tears, congestion, and runny nose… The left eye area and temple are swollen, and the trigeminal nerve is not normal… This looks like a cluster headache!’
Cluster headache is a known disease for which there is no specific drug even in future medicine. It is usually caused by excessive stress, which causes problems mainly in the trigeminal nerve and cerebral blood vessels.
Highly concentrated oxygen was prescribed as an emergency treatment, but it was not a fundamental treatment.
“Hasn’t your head hurt like this periodically every year around this time?”
“Ouch, that’s right. Listening to Eosa Daebu’s words, it seems that every year around this time, my head hurts like this.”
“How many times a day do you get sick? If it hurts once, it will hurt at least part of it.”
“About three or four times. It hurts especially before I go to sleep, and it was fine during the day… Ugh oh, today it hurts especially badly.”
“This is not a punishment. you are overdoing your hair That’s why I got sick in my head.”
“Until now, many city doctors have tried to treat my head, but they have not been able to.”
The fireman took out the stinger from his waist.
“It is a disease that requires long-term follow-up and treatment, so other clinics would not have been able to cure it easily. First of all, I’ll put acupuncture to relieve the headache, so don’t move.”
“yes.”
Puffpuffpuff…..
The saliva was mainly focused on the neck and shoulders rather than the aching head.
As soon as the long and hour hands were evenly placed, the face of the monster, who had been frowning, became much more comfortable.
The headache was subsiding much faster than when I had been acupuncture by the doctors before.
“Seeing that the wall of the stomach is very loose, it seems that he drinks a lot too?”
“yes yes. After paying a lot of attention, I can’t sleep well, so I have to drink to sleep.”
“You are growing a disease in your body. Aren’t you neglecting things like martial arts training?”
“yes. I have a lot of work to do…”
“It will be difficult to live long because my body is so damaged, but if I take care of it steadily, I will live well for the next 10 years.”
“yes! 10 years?”
The monster had an ambiguous expression, like a child who could neither cry nor laugh.
In fact, he had heard that the painter was an excellent painter, so he knew he could cure his illness.
“When it comes to poetry, it would have taken a lot to talk about a year, didn’t it?”
“That’s right.”
“It made me live for 10 years on such a subject. It’s your fault that you have abused your body without thinking about it, so who can you blame? I’ll write you a prescription, so show it to the doctor, take the medicine, and get acupuncture from the long-term doctor tomorrow.”
“I’m a prisoner… can I have a decoction?”
“Are prisoners not patients? And didn’t you intend to turn to me?”
“you’re right. I want to be the mother-in-law of Eosa Daebu.”
“Let’s see if we get better from the disease. I am not yet in a condition to overwork my head.”
“Thank you.”
“What the hell is that ploy anyway?”
“If there is a heavy rain and wind, those inside the castle won’t have a hard time, but those outside the castle will find it difficult to live in the eternal life.”
“yes.”
“As I read the heavenly gi, it would be good to send some soldiers first to attack the capital of Gangneung or block the road before it starts to rain and wind in three days.”
“How many troops do you have in Gangneung?”
“There are about 3,000 soldiers.”
“But we are now chasing Liu Pyo. Even if you go around, wouldn’t it be difficult to arrive first?”
“Those who were captured around the same time as me were soldiers of General Kwak and General Yeo who went to occupy Dokgang Ferry. Doesn’t that mean that the ferry and the port have already been occupied by Eosa Daebu’s soldiers?”
“Did you even notice that?”
The fireman opened his eyes wide, as if slightly surprised.
Even in the situation where I was taken prisoner, I thought that I was definitely not an ordinary person if I looked around and grasped the flow of the battlefield.
“yes. So if you use a boat, you can get ahead. And even if you can’t capture the castle, you can block all the roads into the castle and set traps.”
The fireman looked at the monster with a strange expression, then looked at Zhuge Liang and the other bookkeepers.
“As expected, excellent bookkeepers concoct similar schemes!”
For a moment, the monster looked at the fireman with a surprised expression.
“yes! Have you already done that?”
“Yes. Gangneungdoseong has already been occupied by my generals and soldiers.”
“That’s… I’ve already made a request to Eosa Daebu with a ploy that I’ve already written. sorry.”
“no. Still, you will be my mother-in-law. Of course, I’ll have to fix that headache first.”
The fireman removed the acupuncture needles that had been stuck in the monster’s neck and shoulder, and then used the soup. And he ordered his subordinates to move the monster’s residence to the military councilor’s office.
Sima Hui, who was watching the fireman, and Hwang Seung-eon, Choi Joo-pyeong, who were standing and broadcasting, were moved to the point where their hearts were touched.
‘He’s a great empress and one of the three sages, Eosa Daebu… There’s not a single bit of pretense in his attitude towards monsters!’
‘If I knew you were that kind of person, I wouldn’t have wasted my time locked up in poison.’
‘As Hwi-hyung said, this is a vessel that will embrace the world! I saw a ray of light in a dark and confused world.’
You can tell ten by looking at one, but it felt like I had already seen all ten.
“Ryang-ah.”
At that time, Jegalgeun implicitly called for Zhuge Liang.
“Your brother.”
“Your eyes for people are much better than mine. My main character is also a great person, but your main character warms my heart.”
After hearing Zhugeun’s words, Zhuge Liang took a quick glance at the people around him and then opened his mouth insinuatingly.
“Son Tae-soo may have ambitions, but he will not be able to embrace the main character. So, when he dies, tell him to be embraced by the governor.”
“what?”
In an instant, Jegalgeun’s eyes widened. And the eyes of everyone around him also focused on Zhuge Liang’s mouth.
No matter how big he is, it was not an easy thing to say because the masters who served each other were different and he was in the position of general commander.
Zhuge Liang opened his mouth rather confidently even though he was receiving everyone’s attention.
“When this war is over, the Duke of Zhou will become the great feudal lord, occupying 80 percent of Xuzhou, Yezhou, Jingzhou, and 30% of Yangzhou.”
“That’s right.”
“There is Cao Cao who embraces the emperor in the north, and there are Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan further up, and there are the elder Yu Yuan, Ma Teng Li Ga, and Han Su in the west, but how many people can compete with the Duke of Zhou?”
“You’ve come to rule a large land, but I don’t think you’re at the level of boasting yet, do you?”
“I know I am talking too much. However, my lord not only took possession of the vast land, but also won the hearts of the people of the land. What kind of feudal lord is winning the hearts of the people?”
“That’s… But winning the hearts of the people doesn’t make you the master of the world.”
“Of course it is. But I hope that the Duke of Zhou who won the hearts of the people will become the master of the world. And I will do my best to make that happen.”
There was a firm will in Zhuge Liang’s eyes.
For a moment, a heavy silence weighed on the crowd. Jegalgeun thought for a while, then opened his mouth again.
“Whoa~. I know how you feel, but… I don’t know if the Lord will accept it even if I go back and say this or that. Don’t you know how people change once they are eaten by the monster called ambition?”
“It wouldn’t have worked yet. And judging from the current trend, it looks like the Duke of Zhou will give you a big gift called Liu Pyo.
When Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Zhuge Kun clenched his teeth gently and nodded.
“I get it. If Master Eosa captures Liu Pyo and attaches it to me, I will go back to the Duke of Zhou and try the rhyme you mentioned.”
