Episode 412. Get your hands on it! (1)
Not only the fireman, but also Gafu, Samahui, and even Eulji had a puzzled look on their faces.
Sensing that many people’s eyes were focused on her, Sima Yi bowed her head toward the fireman.
“Wugun is bordered by Xuzhou to the north, and the sea to the east, and it is a narrower land than Gyegi-gun. And if Zhuge’s general commander in Jizhou knew that the Duke of Zhou was fighting Sun Ce, he would of course send troops. It is very likely that he sent troops through Xuzhou to Wugun.”
“You mean that Zhuge Jin of Sun Ce’s camp would predict such a thing and take the accountant as the retreat?”
“That’s right. If I were the mastermind behind Sun Ce’s camp, I would insist on retreating to the Accounting Army, even risking my life.”
The painter thought for a moment and then looked at Gahu.
“Gafu military.”
“Your master.”
“Did you hear any news from the military camp in Giju?”
“The news of our campaign went to Giju, but no pabalma came from Giju.”
“Danju Eulji. Did you hear that Kiju’s soldiers are moving?”
“I haven’t even heard of that yet.”
The painter turned his head and looked at Sima Yi.
“No one has heard that Zhuge Chonggun sent soldiers. If Giju’s forces do not go to the side of Wu, we may miss out.”
“There is no subject in the world of the Duke of Zhou who does not prioritize the safety of the Duke of Zhou. Ask General Jegal, as well as General Gahu or Sima Hui here. What would you do if you heard that the Duke of Zhou had gone on an expedition to a distant land?”
When the painter looked at the two of them, they both nodded.
“We would have sent soldiers with the principal’s safety as our top priority.”
“Hmm~”
As the painter thought hard, Sima Yi hurriedly continued.
“Pabalma hasn’t come yet, but General Jegal will send troops to attack Ogun. So we have to cut off the retreat to the Accounting Army.”
The painter listened to Sima Yi’s words and pondered for a while.
‘Should I say that the level of insight that predicts not only battlefield situations but also people’s psychology and looks one step ahead is similar to that of Zhuge Liang? What a wonderful person he is. It’s a bit of a problem because he’s accustomed to betrayal.’
“good night. As you said, I will send 100,000 naval forces to the port of Malunghyeon to dig traps and block the enemy’s retreat.”
When the painter nodded, Sima Yi was overjoyed and let out a sigh of relief.
Although he is still a low-level schemer, if the fireman accepts his strategy like this, he will soon rise to a high-ranking position. I even thought that if I caught Sun Ce with this tactic, I might be treated the same as Gahu or Sima Hui.
* * *
Wow.
The grinding sound of Son Ce resounded terrifyingly.
“Jangheum Jutae! I will definitely cut off your heads and hang them on the gates.”
Upon hearing the news of his mother’s death and the death of his younger brother, Sun Quan, Sun Ce’s eyes half went round with anger.
He grabbed the spear, climbed on the horse, and summoned the generals. Jegalgeun hurriedly approached and bowed his head.
“Please fix the principal! Now we are in a confrontation with the headquarters of the godfather of fire. If we take out our soldiers to attack the capital, we won’t be able to block the attack of Godfather.”
“Are you saying that the enemies who beheaded my brother are in the city, and you are telling me to just watch me?”
“There is a saying that it is not too late to take revenge even after 10 years. Keep that anger in your heart and focus on fighting the fire godfather right now.”
Despite Zhuge Jin’s words, Sun Ce couldn’t contain his anger.
“The reason I intend to attack the city is to avenge my brother, but also to regain our ground. Only when we recover the capital can we stop the fireman’s attack.”
“Of course it is, but the risk of being given behind is just as great. If you take out your troops now, the fire godfather will surely notice it and it is obvious that you will start attacking right away. In particular, if the fact that Jang Xin and Zhou Tai had occupied the capital reached the Hwabu camp, the Hwabu would try to block us from three sides and create a situation of siege. Therefore, it is best to retreat toward the Accounting Army while preparing for the enemy’s all-out attack.”
“An accountant? Why are you an accountant and not Oh?”
“Wugun is an area bordering Xuzhou to the north and is a key point. When I thought about what I would have done if I was Zhuge Liang in Giju, I came up with the best way to protect my master and entangle us, to strike Ogun first.”
“The military’s words have some truth, but I haven’t heard that Giju’s soldiers have moved south yet.”
“If you hear the news and act, it will be too late. You have to anticipate and move ahead.”
“Is the military telling me to hand over Danyang-gun and O-gun to Hwabu?”
“The fireman will definitely try to catch the main ball. So, if you retreat to the Accounting Force and engage in surface warfare again, you will be able to reverse the overdue charter.”
“Before winning…”
Sun Ce felt his heart sink a little.
“Yes, if it’s a water fight, it’s worth a try.”
Wow!
Dung-dung-dung-dung-!
Suddenly, shouts and drums were heard from the fireman’s camp, and cavalry and soldiers began to march in unison.
“Looking at the all-out attack by the Duke of Zhou, it seems that he learned that the capital city had been captured by Zhang Xin and Zhou Tai.”
“Should we retreat now?”
“If they found out, I think it would be better to show them once that our momentum is not broken than to retreat right away.”
“I get it. All longevity follow me! I will personally give the enemy firer the sharpness of the spear!”
Sun Ce raised his spear and stepped forward, and the generals followed.
Zhuge Kun, knowing how Sun Ce felt now, couldn’t bear to dissuade him and only put on a complicated expression.
‘I hope you are safe!’
It was a taboo that a feudal lord, who could be said to be the head of the army, should never step out as the vanguard, but he thought it would be better to express his resentment like that.
Jegalgeun turned his head and looked at the old man.
Since No-shik’s plan caused great damage one after another, his right to speak has weakened and he has become busy watching Sun-chae.
This time, he didn’t come up with any tricks, just noticed.
“Old soldier.”
“Yes, Mr. Jegal.”
“Since the Duke of Zhou has appeared on the battlefield, the enemy generals will surely flock to him. What would you like to do?”
In an instant, the old man’s expression brightened.
“There is a field of reeds that is good for hiding the archers about ten li to the east. I think we can send the archers there first and hide them, and then send a messenger to lure the enemy there.”
“If that’s the case, there will definitely be room for enemies to get caught. Hurry up and prepare your archers and hide them in the reeds. I will send a messenger to the governor.”
“All right.”
While Noshik gave orders to his lieutenants, Jegalgeun called the messenger and looked at Sunce, who was fighting the enemy generals.
As if trying to unleash all his anger at once, Sun Ce was pushing the enemy generals without hesitation, but Zhuge Kun’s expression grew darker and darker.
“If we use our strength all at once, we won’t be able to hold out for long… but we must hurry!”
* * *
“Have you given up?”
Looking at the handbook moving on the front lines of the battlefield, the painter opened his mouth bitterly.
Gafu, who continued to look at the battlefield, said with a frown.
“It is true that it came out hastily, but the battlefield is greatly agitated by it. This is not good.”
“Agitation?”
The fireman also looked at the battlefield more calmly.
Listening to Kafu’s words, it was clear that the longevity was more focused on Sun Ce rather than the existing path.
“Anyway, I wonder if Sun Ce is a shallow trick trying to catch our generals using himself as bait.”
The fireman woke up.
It is a strategy that has already been used by Jojo once.
The generals may also remember it, but they seem to be unable to notice it because their emotions are disturbed on the front lines of the battlefield, which are also surrounded by excitement and madness. Order on the battlefield, which had been distorted by the handicap, was not easily restored.
“Looks like Jegalgeun set a trap. That is what Sun Ce will do.”
“It definitely looks like that.”
“Right away, beat the drum to remind the generals, and send a swift messenger to deliver my order again! I will never forgive a general who is upset by Sun Ce!”
The sound of the drums changed when the fireman’s command was given.
At the same time, the path of the generals who were flocking to Sun Ce changed.
Even though the generals did not flock, Sun Ce began to retreat to one side as time passed.
It was an orderly retreat, but the damage caused by the retreat began to accumulate little by little.
‘ah! don’t get caught! Even if I think of it, it’s an amazing plan…’
Sun Ce was greatly disappointed when fewer enemies followed him than he expected.
After riding the horse for a while, I saw a thick reed field in the distance.
‘It’s unfortunate, but I’ll have to catch them.’
It was small, but the troops chasing him seemed to be about 5,000.
If you lure them into a trap and then attack, most of those troops will be annihilated.
stop.
However, the enemy soldiers suddenly stopped chasing and started to go back.
Sun Ce couldn’t help but put on a devastated expression.
“Did you really notice that the archers were hidden in the reeds?”
He only found out about this ploy after hearing what a messenger came and told him while he was fighting. Because it was so impromptu, it was difficult for the enemy skirmishers to notice the plan, and even if it did, there would have been no time to inform the generals fighting on the battlefield.
However, I noticed and stopped tracking.
Either the enemy general was remarkably quick-witted, or the fire department sent a messenger in a hurry to stop the general’s actions.
They both couldn’t believe it, but they couldn’t believe it because it happened right in front of their eyes.
“They are the lucky ones!”
Sun Ce shook his head and returned to the base.
Even though he went to the battlefield with a fever, he knew that he was not in a position to continue fighting the generals with a spear.
“Are you okay, Master?”
When Sun Ce returned, the doctor ran to disinfect the wound, and the scribe and aides ran out and made a fuss.
“Okay.”
“Are you really okay, brother?”
When Sang-Hyang Sang-hyang approached with tears in her eyes and asked, Son-Che unknowingly let out a low sigh.
‘Even though I wasn’t in a hurry, I was still staying with my family on this battlefield!’
After the anger was released, I saw things I hadn’t seen before.
“Yes I am fine. Military Zhuge.”
“Your master.”
“It was a wonderful trap, but it was canceled. It’s too bad.”
“The enemy’s response was so agile that I was very surprised. But the fight is not over yet, so the opportunity will come again.”
“It should be. Anyway upwards.”
“Your brother.”
“You take your family and go to the accounting department first.”
“As an accountant? Can’t we go together?”
“As you can see, this is a battlefield where you don’t know when and where arrows will fly. I will attach 1,000 cavalry as an escort, so go to the Accounting Force and wait.”
“all right. brother. And you shouldn’t get hurt too.”
When Son Sang-hyang looked at her with a worried expression, Jegal-geun opened his arms and hugged her.
“You will never get hurt, so hurry and go to the accounting department with your family.”
“Yes, sir.”
After a while, as Son Sang-hyang escaped from the battlefield under cavalry escort, Zhuge Kun opened his mouth to Sun Ce.
“It seems that the reason why the main attackers move swiftly is because of the sound of that drum.”
“huh? drum?”
“Yes, over the past few days, I have compared the sound of that drum with the movement of the Hwabu army, and each time the drum sound changes, the movement of the army changes.”
