Chapter 338. There is no turning back now
.
The report of the skirmisher was reported to the fireman through broadcasting.
If you didn’t know what an ambush was and you were passing by, if you knew, you could have made it a target and inflicted great damage.
“Bang military. How should I deal with the ambush?”
The painter asked Bangtong.
“It would be good to have soldiers with shields stand in the front and use firearms as archers.”
“Appropriate equipment.”
“Your master.”
“Do as the broadcasting military said.”
“I take orders.”
After a while, the equipment went down towards the top of the Jeokpo Gorge after combining the infantry with the shield and the archer.
The ambush soldiers were hiding on the left and right sides of the gorge, waiting for the fireman’s soldiers to pass through the gorge, so the direction they were aiming their arrows was naturally towards the gorge.
Equipment secretly moved soldiers to occupy higher ground than they did.
Then, he fired a flaming arrow straight into the back of the ambush soldier’s head. It was
only
a matter of time before the forest on either side of the valley was engulfed in flames.
Because it is late autumn when the wind blows, the trees are dry and the fallen leaves are dry, so the fire catches well even without oil.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,
those who were ambushed in a hurry to shoot upwards, but because of these big shields, the military’s soldiers did not suffer much damage.
Only about 30 soldiers screamed as they were hit by arrows through gaps that shields couldn’t cover.
On the other hand, the people in the ambush were unable to aim their arrows properly due to psychological anxiety and smoke, and after a while ran out of the forest without being able to hide anymore.
Guan Yu, who had been waiting for it, charged with his cavalry.
Enemies were destroyed in an instant.
Seeing the fleeing enemies and Guan-wu’s troops chasing them, Hwa-bu turned his gaze to the valley.
“Everyone follow me. The main unit continues to pursue the enemy who is fleeing to Hadong-gun.”
“It looks like there are 10,000 soldiers in the main army, but are you not capturing them?”
When one of the department heads asked a question, the painter shook his head.
“Send someone to General Kwan and General Jang to tell them to pursue the enemy for about 20 li and then join the main force.”
“I see. I take orders.”
* * *
“Ha! I’m going crazy. I thought I’d hold it for at least half a day…”
Before, he shook his head as he watched the dust blooming on the distant horizon.
Hwabu’s soldiers followed up to about 30 li in visibility.
I have already informed Hadong-gun that dispatches are being sent, so troops must be on the way. In terms of time, there probably isn’t much left, but 30 li is not enough time.
Above all, there are 30,000 soldiers stationed in Hadong-gun.
If they join up with 20,000 of them and hold on to Mercury, they will be able to deal with 100,000. However, if they fail to join in this state, they will be destroyed individually, and eventually they will not be able to protect Hadong-gun.
‘Should I throw the bait one more time? However, since there is no mediocre general, he may not be a bait, let alone a prey… What should I do?’
I thought about it for a while before, but there was only one option anyway: to throw the bait.
“Cow General.”
“Yes, soldier.”
“Take five thousand cavalrymen and go toward Hana-gun.”
“Ha ha nae-kun?”
General Sodol had a doubtful look on his face because he had already seen how his fellow longevity Meokpyeong had been sacrificed.
“Right now, we have no chance of winning against the army of Eosa Daebu.”
“It is. But wouldn’t there be a problem by dividing the troops?”
“If our military splits into two branches, Eosa Daebu will surely be confused.”
“Eosa Daebu’s army is large, so even if we are divided, we can divide enough to pursue them.”
“Of course it should be, but shouldn’t one or the other have to live? Shouldn’t either I or General So survive to preserve at least some of our forces?”
After hearing what Sodol had said before, he thought that if he led 5,000 cavalrymen towards Hana-gun, Eosa Daebu’s main force would not follow.
The odds of living are relatively high.
“I was short-tempered. I will follow the advice of the previous bookkeeper.”
“Come on, lead 5,000 cavalry and move.”
“yes.”
After a while, as General So took out 5,000 cavalry and headed toward Hana-gun, Eosa Daebu’s army was also seen to be split in two.
Previously, he sighed briefly as he rode on his horse.
‘ha! I’m trying to figure it out as a last resort… but I’m just frustrated how well it will work.’
The basic military discipline begins with absolute obedience to the superior’s orders. However, there was no way for the military discipline to stand up right away as a subordinate commander was already looking for his own way to live and doubting the orders of his superior.
Mupyeonghu’s army was obviously elite soldiers with rich experience in combat, but it felt like they were becoming more and more ragtag due to the absence of outstanding generals.
* * *
“General Guan Yu.”
“Your master.”
“Take 20,000 horsemen and cut off the enemy’s second tail.”
“At first glance, it’s a ploy to divert me, but is there a need for that?”
“I’m using the last number, but since the difference in forces is big anyway, I’m trying to raise the morale of the soldiers by dissolving all the numbers.”
“okay. I take orders.”
When Guan Yu took the cavalry and escaped from the main unit, Hwabu sped up and pursued the enemy forces.
On the battlefield, the most mobile is the cavalry, followed by infantry and archers, and the slowest is the supply troops, who carry food or hay and wounded soldiers in wagons.
Since the enemy cavalry was running in the lead, the distance would not be easily reduced, but the distance to the supply troops was only about 10 li.
“We can catch up within a fraction of a second. Give me a little more strength.”
“Your master.”
Du-du-du-du-du…
The horse’s hooves shook the ground, reducing the distance between them and the enemy.
The fireman grabbed the long spear and gritted his teeth.
‘You’ll regret today, but for now, let’s do what our heart desires.’
After a while, you’ll be killing a fleeing soldier or a powerless old soldier. I felt reluctant, but strictly speaking, it is clear that they were also the ones who tried to kill themselves.
took hold of my heart

“Soldier Lee. The supply troops in the rear are being attacked.”
Despite reports from subordinates, the former did not slow down the galloping horse.
“If you fight, you will perish. Until you join Hadong-gun, keep running even if you are attacked.”
“But… ah, I see.”
The subordinate tried to say something more, but when he saw the previous expression, he realized that he had no choice and closed his mouth.
The former horse ran and glanced back.
I thought the cavalrymen of Eosa Daebu would be distracted by slaughtering the supply soldiers, but they continued to pursue them in a straight line, ignoring the supply soldiers scattered in all directions.
‘This is how far an arrow can reach… Let’s hit that guy with the High Commander.’
Previously, he took out the bow strapped to his back, measured the arrows, and aimed at the fireman.
Previously, he was a book master, but he was also quite good at martial arts, and especially when it came to shooting an arrow, he was excellent enough to use the Gakgung, which is said to be difficult for even the average archer to handle.
‘I saw you use a sword quite a bit when escaping from Luoyang Castle, but you won’t be able to dodge my bow!’
If you hit the fire, the way to live may be opened.
Pi-eeing…..
Let go of the bowstring, and the arrow flew in a parabola.
Caang.
However, no matter how well you shoot, it is useless if the opponent knows and throws it away with a spear.
The painter was already conscious of the move.
Flash.
The fireman’s eyes as he fired the arrows shone like a tiger that spotted a wild boar for an instant.
‘This arrow… It must be the arrow that killed my brother in Luoyang Castle!’
How many arrows are flying on the battlefield?
However, the fireman intuitively recognized who had shot the arrow.
before the enemy’s tactic.
I saw him aiming the second bowstring.
‘Your brother’s enemy! I will definitely kill you.’
“Hey!”
The fireman spurred the horse’s speed by kicking it on the side.
The fireman’s horse was a master horse that could be compared to a red horse, and it could be said that it was a half-spirited creature because it steadily consumed elixirs.
The horse, recognizing its master’s intentions, rushed towards the target at a speed that was incomparable to the previous one.
Caang.
The second arrow also lightly swung the spear away, and the distance from before rapidly narrowed.
“shit!”
When the fireman struck down the third arrow he had shot, Jeon hurriedly drew out his sword and ordered the guards to fight.
“The author is the chief of the enemy. Do not attack anyone else, only the author.”
There used to be 10 escorts before, but now there are only 5 of them.
They were already aware of the fireman even before they received the order, so as soon as the distance got closer, they swung their spears and charged at them.
Whiik! Whiik!
However, the fireman swung the five spears like lightning to bounce them off or avoid them, and skillfully drove the horse through the gap.
The five were immediately run away by the generals who followed them.
The former quickly turned around and tried to run away.
“Do you think you can run away from me?”
Had it only been five breaths?
A shout from the fireman could be heard from a distance before the run away.
Previously, frightened, he raised his sword and swung it towards the sound and turned around.
Caang.
The moment the sword and spear collided, the skin of the palm peeled off and the sword flew into the air.
The former opened his eyes in amazement.
He shoots well, but handles swords just as well, but he couldn’t get a shot.
‘How can a congressman do such martial arts…’
The fireman’s spear stabbed his stomach, but he had no time to avoid it or not.
hooked
“Gagging!”
The moment the stomach was stabbed, the butt rose from the horse’s back.
It was absurd, but the opponent was stabbing himself with a spear weighing more than 100 pounds.
Truly great power.
This level of dragon power could only be seen by a general or a general on the battlefield.
‘I heard that he was a member of the council…’
Previously, even in the midst of dying, I wondered how the fireman had defeated his escorts in such a short time. And that curiosity was automatically confirmed when the painter raised the spearhead and the previous field of view also increased.
The longevity of the fire department was slaughtering the guards at some point.
“Are you the former?”
“Kreureuk… It’s such a pity for the car. Wow, it was a perfect ha trap.”
“Because of you, Jojo and I became enemies.”
“Oh, it was an irreconcilable relationship anyway.”
“It was an incompatible relationship, but I was able to leave room for it. However, because of you and Xiahou Yan, the life of your chieftain, Cao Cao, will end sooner than the time appointed by heaven.”
“That’s something we’ll have to wait and see. Kreukreuk…..”
“Yeah, it’s something we have to wait and see. You will know how big a mistake you made when you first go to the underworld and see others following you.”
“We’ll have to wait and see for that too…”
Suddenly.
The fireman, refusing to listen to his previous words, kicked him out of the spear and decapitated him before he fell to the floor.
“Yeah, wait and see. Even if I kill ten guys like you, my anger at losing my brother won’t be appeased.”
