Chapter 379. Reversal, Reversal, Reversal (2)
“I ask the governor.”
Then another skirmisher ran up and bowed.
For an instant, Jojo’s eyes trembled.
Some kind of ominous feeling.
“Speak.”
“The police station in Naehwang County began to be attacked by soldiers who raised the flag of Western Zhou before 2 o’clock.”
rattle.
Jojo was shocked as if his anxiety came to reality for a moment and hit his heart.
“How many enemies do you have?”
“I heard it was around 50,000.”
There are only about 300 troops in Naehwang County Police Station.
Usually, it is a place where much more troops are stationed, but in order to focus on the fight here, only enough troops were left in the prefecture to maintain security.
If a large army of 50,000 invaded such a place, there was no need to ask about the result.
Before this messenger arrived, the prefecture would have passed into the hands of the fireman.
“The painter was hiding an absurd reserve!”
“The main governor, we must retreat to the main castle.”
Guo Jia shook his head when the tactician Manchong expressed concern.
“What are you talking about? Even if the enemy turns the extra troops to the side and aims at the main force, it is only 80,000 troops. With 100,000 soldiers guarding it, we should be able to defend ourselves sufficiently.”
“Even though there are 100,000 soldiers, if 80,000 attack, it could be dangerous. What’s more, the janghap and the jongyo… keuhmm Anyway, if things don’t go well, we’ll have to send reinforcements at least.”
When Manchong stopped mentioning Janghap and Jongyo, the other scribes made a fuss.
“you’re right. In particular, Zhang He and Zhong Yao…”
Jang He, who was in charge of the fortress, was a subordinate of Wonsul, and Zong Yao, who had not yet had much experience in war, was left in a castle that was considered relatively safe.
The scribes expressed concern about whether they would be able to overcome the fireman’s longevity and schemer, who were skilled in warfare.
However, despite their concerns, Guo Jia firmly shook his head.
“If you attack the main castle, you have to attack it with three times the number of troops. Although Zhang He was under Yuan Shao’s command, he now swore allegiance to the Duke of Zhou. Zhong Yao also had little experience, but he was skilled in the art of war and had a strong command, so he should be able to defend against 300,000 troops.”
Cao Cao listened to Guo Jia’s words and looked through the bookshelves. And I thought about the janghap and the jongyo.
The reason why he left his last name to them was because he judged that he was capable enough even if he thought about it.
“The fireman’s plan is as sharp as a dagger aiming at a vital point, but it’s difficult to plan a castle with only 80,000 troops. Furthermore, it is nonsense to retreat when we have now seized the opportunity to win. Hello!”
“Your master.”
“Thump the drum and drive the enemy harder.”
“The Duke of Zhou orders the march. Beat the drum more excitedly.”
Dung-dung-dung-dung-dung-dung…..
As the sound of the drums spread across the battlefield with a certain beat, the spirit of the generals and soldiers in the front increased and the fighting became rough.
“Why did the fireman turn the soldier aside? Is it not because it is difficult to resist Me head-on? The castle’s defenses are already strong, so don’t worry and let the fireman realize what a terrible brother Jojo was!”
* * *
When the fighting began, Flower Pot took 300,000 of the troops of Xuzhou to the rear and divided them into 30,000 or 50,000 units. Then, he divided the troops into six counties, including Guando, Naehwang, Muan, Beonyang, Sa, and Yanggi, and marched toward Eopseong.
“I knew it would be like this.”
A small smile appeared on the lips of the flower pot, who broke down Nae Hwang-hyeon’s prison and marched straight to Eopseong.
Chisso’s forces were only a few hundred, so most of the enemy soldiers fled before they could actually fight.
Of course, the troops led by the flower pot were able to pass Nae Hwang-hyeon and reach Upseong, as if they had entered without blood.
“Sir, the soldiers in your prison are running away in a panic. Shall we release the soldiers and tell them to catch and kill them all?”
At the question of the subordinate commander, the pot shook his head.
“There is no need for that. Wouldn’t it be more surprising if they ran and informed Jojo that the business was dangerous?”
“But if Cao Cao retreats and comes to defend the castle, we may not be able to capture it.”
“If Cao Cao retreats, will you let the wealth go? Retreat is the hardest thing in war. Even for Cao Cao, retreating with the main forces behind is not an easy task. And even if they retreated properly, it would make matters worse since they would have to face us anyway.”
“Then we don’t have to capture the castle.”
“For now, if you come with an army of 300,000 and fail to capture the castle guarded by only 100,000 soldiers, wouldn’t it be embarrassing to see my wealth?”
“ha ha ha! He is too. Then, it’s important to get the strategy right.”
“Yes. Now you’ve almost reached the castle.”
The pot smiled with a contemplative smile as he looked at the castle in the distance.
Through Sejak, he already knew that there were 100,000 troops in Eopseong, and that the commanders and commanders in command were Janghap and Jongyo.
Zhang He was a longevity and Zong Yao, who had been under Yuan Shao in the past, and was also a not-so-well-known bookkeeper.
“Banggun.”
On the other hand, Bangtong, who came with him, was said to be skilled in strategy and tactics to the extent that the painter could compare him with Zhuge Liang.
“Yes sir.”
“In the current situation, would it be better for us to attack first, or wait for the others to arrive and attack together?”
Bangtong thought about it for a while and then said.
“It would be good for us to attack first and lose lightly. Make the enemy look down on us.”
The flowerpot tilted its head.
“Do you really need to take damage?”
“In the short term, it will be damage, but in the long term, it will not be. From the point of view of the enemy commander, since we have 50,000 troops, it will be considered sufficient to deal with. If we lose and withdraw, they will be arrogant and there is a good chance they will try to drive us out.”
“Ho! If we run away without fighting, the gates will not be easily closed.”
“Even if it is closed, it will not be strong because the soldiers who left have to come back.”
“You’re right!”
“And if the soldiers and us are engaged in a battle, and our allies from other routes join us, wouldn’t it be difficult for the enemy to open or close the gate?”
“That sounds like an interesting ploy.”
“Yes, I think this ploy is also good because even if the opponent doesn’t come out, it can make the next attack vigilant.”
“It really is.”
The flowerpot laughed and shouted.
“Hello, where are those who are coming by other routes?”
“I’ll send someone to check.”
At the words of the pot, the subordinate lowered his head and replied. Bangtong waited for him to leave before opening his mouth.
“You did a good job by sending someone to check. However, I do not have enough time to wait for the messenger to come. We are the fastest route anyway, and others will reach the destination within three o’clock at the latest. So I think it’s good that we move right now.”
“hmm! Even if I think about it, what the military commander said is right. As soon as the entire army arrives at the castle, attack without delay.”
“I take orders.”
The flowerpot’s eyes flashed.
After hearing Bangtong’s words, I could see how the future war would go.
‘Where the hell did the fireman find these bookshelves? I didn’t get talented people like talented people even if I put a room like that… Are people’s clothes born?’

“General Guan Yu!”
“Keuuk, please kill the lord’s conviction!”
With an arrow stuck in his left arm, Gwanwu, unable to pull out the arrow, came to the fireman and knelt down.
After him, equipment and other longevity, such as Zhao Yun and Macho, knelt down and bowed their heads.
The helmet was distorted, the armor was cracked, and the arrows that had not yet been drawn were dangling.
All of them were terribly disfigured.
“Oops, I violated the order to retreat!”
When the painter became angry, Guan Yu bit his molars hard.
“I heard the order, but the principal. Please punish me. But… I couldn’t turn my head with the enemy in front of me. If I take one more step forward, I think I can catch Jojo and avenge Liu Bei’s enemies… I apologize!”
“Please kill your beliefs!”
As Guan Yu and the other generals bowed their heads, the painter let out a long sigh.
It was hard to get even more angry because I didn’t know their feelings.
“A general is a position in which you have to take responsibility for the lives of the soldiers who follow you.”
“…..”
“However, ignoring the command’s orders and killing so many lives to pursue the enemy, this is a sin! According to the original military rules, it is a serious sin that there is nothing to say even if the head is cut.”
The fireman deliberately cut off his words, let out a long sigh, and looked up at the sky. Then, waiting for the atmosphere to become heavy, he opened his mouth.
“However, it is not unknown that you guys have made great contributions and stepped forward because of brotherly affection, so this time I will give you special forgiveness. Keep in mind that from now on, if you disobey the command’s orders, your neck will be cut.”
“Joo Joo Gong!”
“Decapitate the enemy general to pay off the life debt owed to the soldiers who died because of your wrong judgment and greed.”
“Thank you for such a grace as Ju Gong Ha Hae. I will sacrifice my life to destroy my enemies.”
“Everyone wake up. The war is not over yet and you must fight. Lord sober.”
“Your master.”
“I will treat them myself, so tell Obo to bring me the surgical instruments.”
“All right.”
When Eulji nodded, a lion ran away, and after a while, Obo and Beon-ah packed up their bags and brought surgical instruments.
“Come into the command barracks, starting with General Guan Yu, who is most seriously injured.”
“Thank you. I will pay this debt with my life.”
“Your lives are already mine. So you cannot die without my orders. Come on.”
At the words of the fireman, Guan-wu was moved to the point of tears.
“Your master.”
The fireman who entered the barracks sat Guan-wu on a chair and inspected his forearm for the arrow.
“At first, if the injury was this serious, anesthesia should be given and surgery should be performed, but since it is wartime, only the arm will be anesthetized and surgery will be performed. After the surgery, when the anesthesia wears off, severe pain will come, but… bear with it.”
“Even if my arm is cut off, I can bear it, so don’t worry, Lord, please treat me quickly.”
“I get it.”
The painter looked at Guan Yu’s arm and frowned.
The area hit by the arrow was abnormally swollen and the skin was black and dead.
‘uh? Is this poison? Could it be that Cao Cao’s arrows were poisoned?’
If it’s tetanus caused by a rusty arrow, you can treat it with the medicine you have now, but if it’s an unknown poison, the situation becomes complicated.
Even if it was just Guan Yu right in front of his eyes, if he couldn’t find the drug, he might have to cut off his arm, and if he was hit by an arrow in his chest or abdomen instead of his limbs, infection could cause organ necrosis.
In that case, almost no surgery could save him and he would die.
When the fireman’s face was distorted, the light of tension on the faces of Ohbo, Buna, and Gwanwoo was young.
“Look.”
“Your master.”
“Did all the affected areas of the patients who were hit by arrows turn dark red and swollen like this?”
“Many, if not all, have had symptoms similar to those of General Guan Yu now.”
“How did you guys treat these patients?”
“It was judged that the arrow was poisoned, so the area near the heart was tied up to stop the blood flow, and the discolored area was cut off.
“You have been treated appropriately. Did you find an antidote?”
“Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find a drug that completely detoxifies it yet. However, it was judged that this poison was similar to the poison that hunters used to hunt animals in the past, so I made an antidote with licorice, windbreak, and violets and took it.”
In an instant, the fireman’s eyes widened.
Hunters sometimes use poison arrows when hunting animals, but if they use poison that is fatal to the human body, they cannot eat the caught animal, so they must use poison that can be detoxified.
Choodok is extracted from the tuberous roots of the Apiaceae plants that are common in wild marshes or streamsides.
Oboe borrowed the antidote they used.
“Similar to the poisoning of the super five? Isn’t General Guan Yu’s symptoms now far from the poisoning of the poison of the super five?”
