I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 228
Episode 228. Crisis is Opportunity (1)
Since Yeonju is the territory of Eulji, what happened there reached the fireman’s ears faster than Jojo.
“Two days ago, Judae, a concert tree, died.”
“If Yoo-dae is dead, Poshin will ask Joe for help.”
“There is no way the court will send the imperial army, so it probably will.”
“I didn’t know that the performance tree bond would die, but it seems to be going as we expected.”
“Cao Cao’s army is currently about 130,000. Combined with the 80,000 soldiers in Yeonju, it becomes a large army of over 200,000. Although there is a difference of about 100,000 troops, we have excellent generals and counselors, so we will be able to defeat the Yellow Turbans.”
The painter knows that Jojo will become a Yeonju tree himself and become the owner of a great power encompassing Donggun, Yeonju, and even Cheongju.
‘If Hyung Jo becomes Yeon Yeon Mok, Tae Soo of Donggun will become an older brother.’
The reason Jojo made a promise to Hwabok, the governor of Donggun, was not only because Hwabok did a good job as a prefecture, but also because he was Hwabu’s older brother.
‘Joe will be in debt. It’s a bloody brother, it’s a debt of the heart, but I’ll have to pay it back later.’
The painter talked more about the future situation with Eulji and went to see his older brother who was receiving a lymph node massage.
“Husband. This is not a house, but a settlement, so if this is the case…”
As he approached his older brother’s residence, the sensitive housekeeper heard his sister-in-law’s laughter.
Noise of this level is usually inaudible to humans.
stop.
The fireman hesitated for a moment, unable to open the door of the residence right away.
‘Is this me interfering with a good time? No, the older brother doing that during work hours is the problem. It’s not my fault.’
“Kerham~.”
The fireman deliberately cleared his throat and raised the sound of his footsteps. Then the sound of laughter and a slight nasal sound from inside suddenly cut off like a lie.
“Is your brother in?”
“Yes. Are you rich?”
“yes. Go in.”
“Yes, come in.”
When I opened the door and went in, I saw my brother and sister-in-law with their faces reddened.
‘Well, I’ll have a second nephew next year.’
“uh! Is your sister-in-law here too?”
The fireman said hello as if he did not know she was there on purpose.
“Ah yes. I was practicing the therapy the Bocchan taught me.”
Why is the painter doing the therapy, but the clothes of the sister-in-law are so messed up? I wanted to say that, but I didn’t.
“Therapies should be done after my older brother leaves the office and comes home…”
“I have a lot of work these days, so I left the office too late. Oh look at my mind I’ll get the car.”
She hurried away from her seat, as if it were awkward or embarrassing.
“Keuhmm, sit down.”
“yes. older brother.”
After a moment of awkwardness, the painter sat down next to his older brother, taking a pulse and using clairvoyance to examine the three semicircular canals and the cochlea.
‘Even after a month, the lymph sac has not swollen and the pulse is normal. As expected, it has a massage effect!’
Upon closer inspection, my older brother’s face, which had dark circles that looked like pandas until a month ago, was glowing and his skin had improved.
‘And now I see that not only the condition has improved, but the overall condition has improved!’
I could see why celebrities spend a lot of money to go to massage parlors.
“How are you?”
“It has improved a lot. No more tinnitus, no dizziness when turning?”
“huh. After receiving your treatment and receiving therapy, my body feels very light.”
“It usually recurs within two months, but looking at your condition now, I don’t think it will recur.”
“Yes, I was worried about what to do if I get that terrible dizziness again, but I’m glad I did.”
“I’ll check it out for a few more days and if it doesn’t get worse, then I don’t have to be there.”
“Are you going back home now?”
“yes. I will be a father soon, so I have to prepare.”
“Your mother must be very happy. I’m far away and I’m not good at filial piety, so you should pay more attention.”
“I am also a wandering member of parliament. Still, I’m glad Boone-hyung is doing so well.”
“Honestly, Boone is deeply filial. In the past, I was severely scolded by my mother for learning martial arts, but how come you grow up and show filial piety?”
“I, as much as my older brother, mistreated my mother and older brother…”
“Boss, have some tea.”
Just then, the sister-in-law came in with steaming tea.
The clothes that were sloppy earlier were now properly tied.
“Ah yes.”
The fireman quickly drank the hot tea while blowing on it, and then got up quickly.
“Then I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“Have you already finished your examination?”
“Yes, if you take good care of it consistently like now, you won’t fall down in the future.”
At the fireman’s words, the sister-in-law’s face lit up like a full moon.
“I’m so glad. You have no idea how grateful I am for being an outstanding member of the council.”
“See you tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
When the fireman left, the eyes of the two became hot again.

“Mr. Hwa! Senator Hwa!”
Thinking that his brother’s treatment was over, he was about to leave Dongu-hyeon when Jojo’s pabalma came in and rushed to find a painter.
“What are you looking for me in such a hurry for?”
“Here is the letter Taesu-nim sent me.”
The fireman opened the letter that the other party held out and looked at the contents.
The contents were that there were many patients during the war, and he was asked to come and treat not only his soldiers but also the Yellow Turban enemies who were being held captive.
The painter was able to grasp Jojo’s intention by reading the letter.
‘Looks like Joe wants to win the hearts of the Yellow Turban enemies.’
There was a big difference in terms of loyalty between simply threatening to become a prisoner if you didn’t want to die and treating and appeasing the injured.
The painter also thought that it was Jojo.
Unlike other feudal lords of this era, he was trying to win the hearts of soldiers and people.
‘Since he said he would hand over the position of governor of Donggun to his brother, I’ll have to do this as well.’
Even if Cao Cao didn’t call him, he would do it anyway. So it wasn’t bad to be condescending and help out while you were doing it.
“Lord Eul.”
“Yes, Senator.”
“Please prepare to go to Yeonjugun.”
In an instant, Eulji’s expression brightened noticeably. In fact, he was leaving most of the work to his subordinates because he was traveling with a fireman.
There was no need to worry about betrayal because they were brainwashed subordinates, but there were still many things the boss had to decide, and there were a lot of things like that.
“All right.”
“Oh, and this time, we’re not going to be treating on the outskirts of the battlefield, but inside Joe’s camp, so please pay attention to your mobility and tell the escorts to wear protective gear as well.”
“yes? Why do you want to risk entering the camp?”
If you are in the camp and are pushed back by the Yellow Turbans, you can be swept away as well.
“Joe owes me a debt, so I have to pay it back.”
“Hasn’t Jojo owed more to the congressman so far?”
For some reason, Eulji seemed to disapprove of Jojo.
“It’s a brother-in-law. Just do as you are told.”
“All right.”
Eulji seemed to have something more to say, but left without saying anything.

When the hwabu arrived in Yeonju, it was the time when the allied forces of Cao Cao and Poshin fought against the Yellow Turbans in Cheongju and won a great victory.
The fierce fighting was such that thousands of unrecovered corpses were left lying in the plains east of Suyang County, and crows and wild animals ate the corpses here and there.
About 300 wounded soldiers who were unable to participate in the war were chasing animals and diligently carrying and burning or burying corpses, but there was no sign of the end.
“Master Hwa has you come?”
The person who recognized the fireman’s party from afar and approached to greet them was Jo-in with a bandage on his leg.
In the past, I had to do it because I was old, but now I didn’t dare to do it because I was a high official.
“It is miserable.”
The fireman had never smelled such a terribly repulsive mixture of blood, rotting corpses, burning corpses, etc., as he had been on the outskirts of the battlefield or had seen corpses from afar.
I realized more acutely than before how cruel and destructive war is.
“All battlefields are like this. There is no one for the Master to heal here, and the wounded and prisoners are in the City of Discipline.”
“Do you have a Jo Hyung or Jo Yeongnam tree in the city?”
The painter knew that Jojo notified the court after becoming a performance tree himself.
Although Li Gak and Guo Sa had the emperor in their hands, they still had to pay attention to other feudal lords, so they did not dare to refuse the request of Cao Cao, who was making a big impact. Because of this, I accepted the position of the performance tree.
“Young Ju-mok is chasing after the Yellow Turbans who are fleeing with Po Je-Buk-Sang.”
“is that so? Then who is in the city?”
“There is General Woogeum.”
“Geum is my brother. All right. But is General Cho also injured?”
When the painter looked at the bandaged thigh, Jo In smiled bitterly.
“It’s not that serious, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
“My judgment and the general’s may differ, so let’s see.”
When the painter tried to examine the wound, Jo In could no longer refuse.
“thank you.”
When the bandage was removed, the flesh of his thigh was exposed, and blood flowed out.
The fireman poured distilled spirits and washed away the blood, examining the wound and making a puzzled expression.
“Who did the treatment?”
“I just… what’s wrong? Is it wrong?”
“If you leave it like this, you will be crippled for the rest of your life. You don’t want to do that, do you?”
“Of course not. It was tolerable with the bandages on, but… is it that bad?”
“If the congressman treated me in this way, I would have grabbed him by the collar. Take a cot from the boya wagon and spread it over here.”
“yes. Master.”
“Are my first aid measures so wrong?”
“Didn’t you roll over on the battlefield for a long time and get surgery from me before? I think he taught me how to take first aid at that time. don’t talk I need surgery soon, so drink this first.”
“I see.”
Joe’s face turned red.
In fact, he was also aware to some extent that his wounds were serious. That’s why he didn’t follow Cao Cao and stayed like this to clean up the corpses.
He couldn’t tell the fireman, but he deliberately did not receive treatment from the doctor.
Seeing his subordinates who were in danger of losing their lives were crying out to the councilor to save them countless times, his heart became weak and he tied his thighs together and endured until now.
Jo In drank the anesthetic and fell asleep while talking nonsense.
When the painter treated Jo In, the disciples and doctors seemed to be tired of waiting, so they brought a cot from the carriage, spread it out, set up a tent, and immediately opened a medical room. And until the sun went down, he treated the soldiers who were cleaning up the bodies.
