Chapter 186
Episode 186. Back to the battlefield (1)
“Do you urinate well?”
“I hardly see you. The city doctors are treating it, but it keeps getting worse, so I sent you a letter.”
“In the past, when I was treating my grandfather, he told me to climb the mountain every day… but he probably didn’t.”
“I wonder if Grandpa had the spirit to ride the mountain when the imperial palace was in such an uproar? I heard from my father that even after he came down to his hometown, he had been drinking almost every day, as if he was heartbroken.”
Hearing Jojo’s words, the painter made a slightly surprised expression.
‘Didn’t he go down to prepare for a new world?’
After a while, when I arrived at Jo Deung’s residence, I saw Pyeon-won, who was the imperial court’s city council member.
“uh! City councilor. Long time no see.”
“Come on. I heard that Congressman Hwa was coming to General Cho. Say hello later and take care of Bi Jeong-hu first.”
“yes.”
Jo Deung was lying on his bed, his body swollen like a balloon about to burst.
When he heard the fireman’s voice, he opened his eyes.
“Grandpa is here.”
“Keu, come quickly. Come on, fix me.”
“First of all, I’ll start with the pulse.”
The painter looked through Jo Deung’s body while taking a pulse.
‘I expected it, but… I’ve got a problem with my kidneys.’
It was renal failure.
Both kidneys had lost all function. In the future, dialysis and kidney transplantation could save lives, but neither is possible here.
‘I’ll have to find it if I’m forced to find it… but it’s already too late. I’d rather not give hope.’
When the painter finished his pulse and did not open his mouth with a dark expression, Jo Deung trembled his lips as if he was afraid.
“How are you? Will I be okay?”
“sorry. grandfather.”
“What is it? Are you saying you can’t save me now?”
“Since both kidneys have already lost their function… there is no way to fix it.”
“Aren’t you the Hwa-ta who saved countless people from dying? Don’t give up and fix me. If you will heal me, I will give you half of the wealth I have accumulated so far.”
“sorry. grandfather.”
“Is that half not enough? That’s right, the world’s non-Jeonghu and Jo-deung… It could be that half is not enough. All right, I’ll give you my entire fortune… save me.”
“sorry. I can’t help it with my medicine. sorry.”
Tears flowed from the fireman’s eyes. I didn’t think it was that sad, but when I thought that the person I called my grandfather was going to die, I cried without realizing it.
Jo Deung struggled and grabbed the fireman’s sleeve and begged.
“I will do anything you want. I’m infertile just say anything I’ll do everything. huh? So please live! I mean, do something!”
“I want to save my life somehow. grandfather. If you had listened to me telling you to climb the mountain every day, it wouldn’t have turned out like this… Hehehe…” As the
painter started to cry out loud, Jo Deung’s hand, which was shaking his sleeve, naturally lost strength.
“Following the whiplash, I can’t even save you… Then I’m really dying now!”
“…..”
“Heh heh… Life is so futile… What have I been living so hard to hold on to?”
Suddenly, Jo Deung’s voice became lively, and the atmosphere changed as if he were an enlightened master.
The fireman instinctively noticed that this was a retro-hemorrhagic phenomenon that patients only see briefly before they die.
At times like this, it was better to listen to what he had to say without saying anything.
“Joya and Boo.”
“yes.”
“yes.”
“All I’ve done my whole life… was to notice others. It looked gorgeous, but I wasn’t very happy. No, it was painful, scary, lonely, and embarrassing. The two of you don’t care about others and live your life doing what you want to do.”
Dripping…..
Tears suddenly flowed from Jo-deung’s eyes, and he began to choke and catch his breath.
The fireman reflexively grabbed the needle and then released it with a sigh.
Pyunwon and Jojo rushed in and tried to give Jodeung a breather, but his soul was already passing through a river of no return.
‘In the end, people die like this. You can’t take anything with you when you die. Wealth, fame, and money…’
The fireman suddenly thought about how many good deeds and bad deeds would be for Jo Deung, and then shook his head.
After a while, Cao Song came running and eventually Cao Cao died, and Cao Cao began to weep loudly, shouting for his grandfather.
* * *
After Jo Deung’s death, many feudal lords came to pay their respects, and more than ten times more people sent their condolences.
Hwabu unexpectedly received condolences with Jojo.
Of course, I didn’t receive it as a resident, but it was still on the agenda, so I came to stay with him.
“uh? Hwaeosa… No, Senator.”
At that time, Sun Jian, who came to the condolences, recognized the painter and pretended to be an egg.
“Someone said it was Son Tae-soo. Did you also lead the military and participate in the alliance this time?”
“yes. By the way, what are you doing here, Senator Hwa?”
“I was close with Jo hyung, so I came to treat Queen Bi, but unfortunately, it was too late.”
“Ah, that’s right. Would you like a drink?”
“What yes.”
The painter went to the place where Sun Jian’s subordinate general, Huang Gai Handang information assistant, greeted him and had a drink with him.
“Is Kwon-i healthy after that?”
“After being treated by your doctor, I became very healthy.”
“Certainly, at that age, you are prone to such diseases.”
“A lot of people die after getting caught in the horns… I feel dizzy just thinking about it if the congressman didn’t come at that time.”
“Even if I hadn’t gone, Congressman Jang would have fixed it. By the way, after listening to the story between Hyung Cho and the Won leader, Tae-soo said he would be the vanguard?”
The news that several feudal lords had gathered their forces and formed an alliance reached Dong Zhuo’s ears. Because of this, Dong Zhuo’s army was advancing toward Jinliu County, and Sun Jian was supposed to lead the vanguard army to face them.
“Haha… The news has reached the ears of the congressman as well. you’re right. I will stand in the vanguard with the generals and crush Dong Zhuo’s army.”
The fireman knew roughly why Sun Jian took the lead.
In fact, Sun Jian led an army of about 10,000 men, but it was not long after he suppressed the Guseong Rebellion, so the food was insufficient. Because of this, it was a plan to quickly start a fight and set the ball.
The fireman thought for a moment and then opened his mouth insinuatingly.
“By the way, if you had brought the soldiers all the way here from Changsha, the food would have been consumed quite a bit. Do you have any spare time?”
Sun Jian was taken aback by the fireman’s question, but hurriedly hid his embarrassment.
“Of course there is. Moreover, Taesu Won said that he would follow from the rear, so if there is a shortage, he will be immediately supported.”
Also, history does not change easily.
Talking about support meant, after all, that there was not enough military food.
Historically, Sun Jian runs out of food while fighting Dong Zhuo’s army led by Hua Woong and Li Shu, and asks for help from Yuan Shu in the rear.
As the soldiers ate one meal a day and fought, of course their morale fell, and eventually they were defeated and retreated.
‘There’s no law that General Jomu won’t die if he fights with enough food, but… Anyway, since he’s related, I’ll have to give him some advice.’
After making up his mind, the painter opened his mouth again.
“If you think you will run out of food for the army, don’t listen to me carelessly and get support before moving. Whether you are a soldier or a general, you must have a good stomach to fight well.”
When the cooker spoke with a serious expression, Sun Jian looked into the cooker’s eyes for a moment, then smiled broadly and nodded.
“Ha ha, I see. In fact, if you move with a lot of military rice, your mobility will decrease, so I tried to borrow it when I was in a hurry… After hearing what the congressman said, it would be better to borrow it in advance.”
When Son Gyeon nodded, the painter smiled slightly and poured the wine into the glass so that it overflowed.
“I wish you the best of luck.”
“yes.”
“General Jomu, please take a drink from me too.”
“Ah yes.”
The fireman deliberately poured alcohol for his assistant and wished him luck.
‘If you’re lucky to die, you’ll die, if you’re lucky to live, you’ll live. Anyway, since I’ve said what I have to say, we’ll have to wait and see if things go the way they did in history or not.’
“Miss Hwa. To see Congressman Hwa in a place like this… How have you been?”
At that time, another group recognized the fireman and pretended to be an egg.
When I turned my head, Liu Bei and his sworn brothers were standing there.
“ah! Yoo Hyun-ryeong. Did Hyun-ryeong-nim also participate in the war this time?”
“yes. I came with Taesu Gongson.”
When Liu Bei pointed to Gongsun Zan, the painter humbly greeted him because he was a celebrity in history, even though he had never seen him before.
“nice to see you. It is called Eosa-seung Hwabu.”
“ah! Oh, you were a monk. This is Gongsun Zan.”
“Master Teacher, we will first offer our condolences and then come this way.”
“yes.”
After a while, Liu Bei’s brothers came to the place where the fireman and Sun Jian were.
Gongsun Zan had a lot to say with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, so he took a seat and sat there.
Liu Bei’s sworn brothers were already acquainted with Sun Jian’s party and immediately got along with them.
‘Hmm~. Come to think of it, from a historical point of view, General Guan Yu avenges the enemy of General Cho Mu.’
After defeating Sun Jian and killing Jo Mu, Hwa Woong leads his troops to the alliance and tells them to come forward if there is a general who can stand against him one on one.
In this era, in order to raise the morale of the soldiers, there were many cases in which outstanding generals from each military camp came out from the vanguard and fought one-on-one with the opponent’s vanguard.
When the generals are intimidated by Hwa-ung’s majesty and do not dare to step forward, Gwan-wu steps forward and kills Hwa-ung in an instant.
After that, the feudal lords were surprised by Guan Yu’s absurd power and kept their eyes on them.
The painter felt a strange feeling when he saw the many heroes gathered at Sanggatjip.
‘Today we gather like this to drink, but later, many people will point their swords at each other to kill each other for their ambitions!’
* * *
Even before Jo Deng’s funeral was over, Sun Jian’s army and Hua Woong’s and Yi Shu’s troops collided at the death hall.
That’s how the war started, and the fireman started treating the wounded with long-term obliques in the rear.
Since the war had just begun, the fireman asked Pyeon-won what he hadn’t been able to ask because he hadn’t been in a situation.
“Then did you resign from the city council?”
“Yes, if I continued to stay in the imperial palace, I would be swept away. So I hurriedly resigned and went back to my hometown, but Lady Bi Jeong-nim sent me a message saying that it was urgent.”
“okay.”
“I thought it wouldn’t be dangerous to come out of the imperial palace… but the world isn’t easy either.”
