I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon

Episode 414. A lingering attachment that cannot be let go (1)

A satisfied smile appeared on the painter’s lips.

It is also Zhuge Liang. He thought it was enough to attack the capital, but if he were to go straight south and attack the Qi county, even if Sun Ce didn’t get caught in the trap dug in Maling County, Sun Ce would end up like a wandering weed.

This is because even if the accounting army fled, they would not be able to enter the capital city.

The biggest problem when a base is lost is a drop in morale.

If morale drops during movement, it directly hits the troops, and the biggest problem is that the soldiers become agitated and leave the battlefield one by one.

Troops that broke away like that would lose their place and scatter, but from the point of view of the fireman, there was nothing bad about absorbing the enemy’s lost troops.

And more than anything else, if you run away like that, your mind and body will become exhausted and eventually collapse.

The painter wrote a letter of encouragement to Pabalma, who was going to Zhuge Liang, and called Eulji.

“Did you call? main ball.”

“Yes, my lord. Go to the city and meet Jang Xin and Zhou Tai. I want to personally go and praise the ball, but as you can see, the situation is not going well, so Danju will have to work hard instead.”

When the painter handed over the box containing the pre-written teachings and treasure, Eulji bowed her head and accepted it.

“All right. Jang Heum and Zhu Tae will also greatly appreciate the reign of the Duke of Zhou.”

“And after Sun Quan’s body is burned, send it to Sun Ce’s camp in a formal ceremony.”

“yes?”

At the fireman’s words, not only Eulji, but also the bookkeepers around him, such as Gahu and Samahui, widened their eyes.

“The Duke of Zhou is in the middle of a fight with Sun Ce, so sending Sun Quan’s body is a little too much of a gift.”

Sun Quan’s body is also a factor that will be used critically if negotiations are to take place in the future.

At Sima Hui’s objection, the painter smiled bitterly.

“Yes, it’s our enemy and it’s not that I don’t know that it’s also an important factor if we negotiate. However, we are not in a weak situation, and Sun Quan is still someone I cherish. I don’t want to use his death to help us win. In the past, the feudal lords used to do nasty things to intimidate and placate the remaining family members with dead bodies, but even though we are at war, I don’t want to benefit from that.”

“I’m against making a deal using the corpse of the chieftain, but since we’re at war right now, wouldn’t it be better to return the corpse later after everything is sorted out?”

“done. Even so, it’s hot here, so no matter how careful you are, your corpse will rot quickly. So, shouldn’t we be able to mourn the departed family even for a short while if we send them away when they are still intact? And after the war, those who will be mourning may be in a position to receive mourning, so I think it is right to do it as it is.”

At the end of the fireman’s words, Sima Hui could no longer vomit and nodded.

“Sun Ce will be impressed by the Duke of Zhou’s deep consideration.”

“What impression would you have on me for killing my brother? I just want his heart to be relieved a little bit. Please tell Eulji Danjunim Jang Heum and Ju Tae not to think of profiting from Son Kwon’s body.”

“All right. main ball. However, after Sun Ce withdrew to the county, wouldn’t it be necessary for the two to continue occupying the capital of Danyang-gun? Why don’t we leave the minimum number of troops to defend the castle and tell them to follow the Duke?”

The painter heard Eulji’s opinion, thought for a moment, and then shook his head.

“This is where Sun Ce settled and ruled for a long time. So, I think it would be better for the two of them to remain and rule the public sentiment.”

“All right. Then I will tell you that.”

Eulji thought it was too much for 100,000 troops to stay in the capital city, but he nodded his head without throwing up at the fireman’s words and left with a gift.

* * *

“Haha I thought the Lord was in a hurry, but it was because he had a corner to believe in!”

Zhuge Liang was greatly impressed when he heard that the capital of Danyang-gun was captured through Pabalma sent by Hua-bu and that the soldiers of Hua-bu were chasing Son Ce, who fled to Gye-go-gun.

I had heard from the fireman that Eulji planted people in Son Ce’s camp before, but I didn’t know that they would be big men like Jang Heum and Ju Tae.

When it comes to the characters of the fireman camp, people like Janggoe and Haman, who had been the hands and feet of the fireman from the beginning, betrayed them.

“The subordinates he trusted betrayed and killed his younger brother, so by now Sun Ce’s camp must be in the mood of a mourning house!”

Even Sun Ce, who was reborn as a great feudal lord by conquering eight quarters of Yangzhou and capturing the religious ruler, would not be able to come to his senses in the current situation.

“What news did you hear that made your face bloom so brightly?”

Then Guan Yu took off his helmet and entered the barracks.

When he entered, Zhuge Liang rose from his seat to greet him and held out a letter from the painter.

“welcome. Captain. Have you stopped the river on the way to Accounting County?”

“As the commander-in-chief said, all the bridges were demolished and the upper river was blocked so that it was possible to cross the river on horseback, but I have doubts that the enemy would cross the river without any doubt in a rainy season like these days.”

Guan Yu opened the letter given to him by Zhuge Liang and answered.

“The governor of Ogun has already taken all the boats from us, and from the moment he leaves the city to escape, our cavalrymen will start chasing after us. So, do you have time to consider the rainy season and the dry season?”

“Well, that’s true, but wouldn’t you still doubt the presence or absence of a trap?”

“it’s okay. If there is a road in front and a tiger behind, everyone hastily runs to the road and avoids the tiger first.”

“A drowning person can catch even a straw, so you’re saying that you’re going to use that psychology. By the way, will those who have closed the city gates and are hiding tightly come out? Rather, it seems like one way to march straight to the accounting army, as the governor said in the letter.”

When Guan Yu waved the letter, Zhuge Liang lightly waved his fan and smiled.

“The general’s strategy must change at any time to suit the situation. The reason why I raised my opinion to the governor that I would advance directly to the Accounting Army was because that plan was considered the most correct in the situation at that time, and the reason why I implemented the plan to drown the enemy who would flee into the river like now is because I thought it was the most appropriate in the current situation. .”

Guan Yu listened to Zhuge Liang’s words, looked into his eyes, and suddenly laughed heartily.

“Haha, I did this because I was frustrated because the enemies didn’t come out of hiding inside the city.”

When Guan Yu no longer put forward his argument and let it go, Zhuge Liang asked another question.

“I told you to be vigilant on purpose so that the enemies could send and receive news through messengers, but what about that?”

“I’m on my way after receiving a report that a pabalma from Danyang-gun entered the capital city about half an hour ago.”

“Then, within the next three days, the enemies will abandon the city and flee to Accounting County. So please encourage the longevity to hurry up the finishing work.”

“It is already almost finished.”

“Then all that remains is to wait. If we break the embankment in time for the enemy’s lead to cross, we will be able to make our own those who failed to cross the river and all the war materiel they were trying to take.”

Guan Yu nodded in agreement with Zhuge Liang’s words.

In fact, even if the plan to block the river and collapse it to drown the enemies was successful, the number of enemies who actually drowned could not be large.

Even if the width of the river is wide, those on horseback can cross it as quickly as possible. However, since infantry, archers, and supply soldiers who move military supplies can never be fast, they had no choice but to retreat the moment they sensed the river rising.

Zhuge Liang is targeting those who have withdrawn.

“Even if the governor of Wugun and his party cross the river and safely escape to the county and meet Sun Ce, they will not be welcomed if they go empty-handed.”

“If it were Jojo, I would hold him accountable and slit his throat. There may be handicap, but there will never be hospitality.”

“ha ha ha! Maybe Taesoo Ogun will surrender to us even if he crosses the river.”

“If that happens, it will be easier to manage here.”

Guan-wu briefly admired Zhuge Liang, who was still shaking his fan.

“By the way, isn’t the commander-in-chief not giving too much consideration to fighting the enemy for whom your brother is the commander-in-chief?”

Zhuge Liang shrugged at Guan Yu and smiled.

“Isn’t fighting something worth trying? My older brother is now devising several schemes to get away with it, but sooner or later, when the pendulum is completely tipped, he will not devise any more schemes.”

“Are you waiting for Sun Ce and your brother to surrender?”

“Rather than waiting, I’d say we’re making them surrender.”

“From the point of view of Zhuge Lieutenant, since his younger brother holds a high position here, even if he could save his life by surrendering, would Sun Ce surrender when his younger brother is dead?”

“My younger brother is dead, but my wife and children are all still alive. When Cao Cao’s children went to the imperial palace to retrieve Cao Cao’s body, he must have known very well that Cao Cao advised them to be exiled to a distant land. Maybe Sun Ce doesn’t want Son’s line to be cut off, so he’ll remember that at the last moment.”

“hmm! Well, at that point, anything will matter. Well, if you resist to die until the end, there’s nothing you can do about it.”

“It is. Actually, from my point of view, it doesn’t matter what the hand book is. All you have to do is turn your brother’s heart around.”

“I heard that the Musketeer became the son-in-law of Songa. Are you okay with that?”

At that, Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said.

“I am attacking my in-laws’ family, how could it not hurt my heart? That’s why it pushes it even more. So that they don’t get hurt more.”

“I guess so. As expected, the general’s heart is deep.”

Guan Yu nodded as if he could feel Zhuge Liang’s sadness and went outside. Zhuge Liang sighed only after seeing him leave.

‘It’s for the sake of the Duke, but how can I feel comfortable fighting my brother? I just hope that my brother and nephews are safe until this war is over.’

“It seems that our generals and cavalrymen fighting against Hwabu’s cavalry in the rear of the main attack should now turn to the front.”

At Zhuge Kun’s request, Sun Ce made an expression of incomprehension.

“No, thanks to the generals and cavalrymen in the rear blocking the enemy cavalry, so far, the troops have been moving without much damage, but suddenly turning to the front, what does that mean?”

“The place we are passing through now is Malung County. As you know, Malleung-hyeon here has a wide inlet that is comparable to Eocham-hyeon. If the fireman took out soldiers and sent them by boat to Maling County in advance, there is a high possibility that there will be a trap. So, send generals and cavalry to the front to prepare for any possible attack.”

Sun Ce shook his head in spite of Zhuge Kun’s concern.

“The thoughts of Zhuge Lieutenant are reasonable, but they have already released many scouts in all directions to look around, so if the enemy has dug a trap, they will bring news. If the cavalry is moved, the rear will be unstable and it will become a problem! It’s a very risky idea.”

“Haona Jugong is now night, and the area around the port of Malung County is often foggy at this time of year. Skirmishers may not be able to spot the enemy.”
