I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 273

Episode 273. Can we win without fighting? (2)

“I have no intention of doing that either. However, this is enough to be corrected even if my disciple steps forward.”

“yes! can you fix it? Violation? disciples?”

DK’s eyes widened.

Violation was the first disease that was cured through surgery by a painter, but it was an incurable disease that was known to cause death if caught.

“They are disciples who have been learning medicine from me for over ten years. This level of illness is not difficult for them.”

DK looked at the fireman with a blank expression for a moment, then let out a big sigh.

“But you won’t heal me, a captive.”

“I have been treating allies and enemies alike. Of course, I prioritized my allies, but I never stopped treating them because they were enemies.”

“Then will you heal me?”

“If you do what I ask, I will ask the disciple to heal you.”

The painter changed his mind to just go to the castle and talk to DK right here.

“What do you want?”

“I haven’t told you what I’m asking for, but your face is already brightening up?”

“Wouldn’t it be nice to find a way to live while dying?”

“You are happy to live, and it doesn’t matter that many soldiers died because of you?”

stop.

At the painter’s words, DK couldn’t speak right away and looked at the painter for a while. His crumpled face straightened, but his eyes were still cold.

In this case, you need to speak well.

“I was defeated in the war and my soldiers died countless times, so would you feel comfortable? But you can’t avoid the oncoming fight, can you? Jojo and the princess as well. I have never attacked another feudal land first.”

“You never attacked, but didn’t you do a lot of things that deserved an attack?”

“There are feudal lords from all directions, but am I not greedy? But the death of the soldiers makes me sad too.”

The fireman looked at Dokyeom for a moment, then quickly mounted the horse again.

“It looks like crocodile tears, but for now it’s fooling me. My request is that you urge the governors of Xuzhou City to surrender. If there is even one satrap who surrenders through your invitation, I will cure it.”

“yes?!”

In an instant, DK’s eyes widened.

“Are you really me?”

“They said that fighting and winning is the bad thing, and winning without fighting is the best. If we fight, we must win, but if possible, we should win without fighting.”

“It is. I will help. Hey, by the way, if there are two satraps who surrender, could you please treat me better? For example, Hwa-ta will treat me directly, or even a small prefecture’s position…”

Do-gyeom blurted out his words involuntarily. Even if you think about it, it was a shameless request for a prisoner of war.

The painter looked at DK with a slightly surprised expression.

No matter how much the company is higher than the governor, it could already be called an independent feudal lord at the governor level. How many of them would surrender without a fight just because their captive company urged them to surrender?

“If, as you say, you persuade and surrender two surnames, I will guarantee the safety of your family and give you a position as the county governor. And if there are three, I will give you the position of governor of one of them.”

When the painter put forward an unconventional condition, DK’s eyes widened.

“Team Taesoo… are you sure?”

“I told you earlier. It’s best to win without fighting. If you show that much ability, you deserve to be treated.”

“Then, if there are more than 3 castles to surrender, can you get better treatment?”

The painter put on a slightly puzzled expression.

“You are too greedy. There is nothing more than Sagittarius.”

“If the big castles, which can be the core of Xuzhou, fall into the hands of Grand Master Fire, the lords of small castles will lose their will to fight. If that happens, you’ll be fighting the best war to gain Seoju without fighting what the governor of Hwabu wants.”

At DK’s words, the painter unconsciously nodded.

War can’t go so easily as he said, but if it did, it couldn’t be more than that.

“good night. If you do, I will give you the option of naming one of the surrendered castles.”

There were big castles and small castles in Xuzhou. If you become the ruler of a large castle, you will not be as good as when you were a former Xuzhou company, but you will still be able to enjoy enough wealth and glory.

“thank you. I will do my best to convince the castle lords.”

“Wouldn’t it be so easy that your face would light up?”

“It’s not easy, but I think we can do it somehow.”

When the painter tilted his head, DK hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth again. From his point of view, it was good to look good for Liu Bei as much as possible now.

“In fact, the closest governor of Paengseong is my younger brother.”

“I knew that the leader of the thieves was your younger brother. However, no matter how much you are a younger brother, would you easily surrender if you were the ruling adult?”

“My brother is the one I know best. If you coax them well, they will open the castle gates and surrender to the governor.”

DK, who assured me, was not trustworthy, but he nodded his head willingly, as there was nothing to lose by trusting him.

“Then send a messenger to Paengseong as soon as this place is settled.”

“It’s easy to convince if I go by myself.”

“If it were you, would I send you back?”

“I am a person who will die sooner or later if Taesu Hwabu does not treat me. What would I do if I ran away? And if you’re not sure, let me go in after surrounding Paengseong. Then you can’t run away, can you?”

The painter listened to Do-gyeom’s words and nodded after pondering for a moment.

“hmm! good night. After besieging Paengseong, I will send you as a messenger.”

When the fireman’s words fell out, Zhuge Liang was startled and interrupted.

“How can you be seduced by your tongue and try to return the fish you caught to the river?”

Not only Zhuge Liang, but Lu Pu and other generals also did not understand the decision of the fireman.

But the fireman opened his mouth nonchalantly.

“I’m releasing fish from the river into my garden pond.”

It was said that the fish in the garden pond could be caught whenever he wanted to.

At first glance, it was a frantic expression, but Zhuge Liang nodded his head even though he was concerned because the person who said it was a painter.

“It would be difficult to catch a small minnow, but since it is such a big carp, you won’t miss it.”

“Instead, the pond should be wide and strong so that it does not overflow even when it rains. isn’t it? General.”

As the painter looked at Yeo Po and the longevity, Yeo Po bowed her head as a representative.

“You don’t have to worry because the longevity of the governor is strong enough that even a small pyramid cannot escape.”

The painter turned his head again and looked at DK.

“If I can’t convince my younger brother… Paengseong will become a sea of fire.”

“I also don’t want many of the people and soldiers I ruled to die. I will do my best not to disappoint you.”

DK groaned quickly as if he were a servant of the fireman.

* * *

The place where the soldiers of Xuzhou who fled after being defeated in this war returned to the nearest Paengseong Fortress.

Hwabu and Zhuge Liang had this in mind even before they captured Dokyeom, so of course they came up with countermeasures.

While Yeo-po was capturing Do-gyeom, Woo-geum ambushed soldiers on the roads leading to Paeng-seong, and Woo-geum himself led 10,000 troops and surrounded Paeng-seong itself.

It is impossible to come out of Paengseong, but no one can enter Paengseong.

In the end, most of the defeated soldiers on their way to Paengseong were caught in Woogeum’s net and either died or were sent to Sopaeseong.

The princess looked at her face in disbelief as she saw countless western soldiers who were brought to Sopai Fortress every day and Yeju soldiers who fled the battlefield to find a way to live and then returned to Sopae Fortress.

The Yeju soldiers who returned to Sopaeseong were originally from the same group, so it was natural that they were easily absorbed into the defeated army.

‘How can there be so few people who are hesitant about converting, no matter how disloyal they are?’

Upon closer inspection, it was rare for anyone to think about it for even half a day, let alone a day.

In order to find out the cause, the princess went to the side of the monk who was persuading the western soldiers by chattering like a parrot and listened to what he had to say.

“You must have heard of how Do-gyeom, the company of Seoju, who was your master now, is being treated, right? He has already been guaranteed the position of governor of one of the Xuzhou provinces as a condition of becoming a servant of the governor of Huabu. In a situation like this, is there any need for you guys to risk your life and remain a soldier in the West for him? After all, they are all citizens and soldiers of the same Han, but only the seats of the high-ranking people have changed, and we are the same

. I didn’t even need to listen to this anymore.

‘Hehe, even I, who is not a soldier from the Western State, is starting to feel like converting… What about ordinary soldiers?’

The princess heard through rumors that it was the painter who educated those literary men.

‘It’s a bit out of body for Taesu to lead, but there are still so many prisoners who are converted because of it…’ It

was immediately apparent that the fireman did not put much importance on body physique and placed great importance on efficiency.

‘uh? The author is Dokyeom!’

The princess walked in the direction of Uicheong to receive treatment, and when she saw Do-gyeom coming out with the fireman, she gritted her teeth.

Her teeth gnashed every time she remembered how he treated her.

If the painter hadn’t seen his use value and treated him, he would have told him to cut his throat.

When he was first caught, he had a terrible face, but now that he was sitting close to the fireman and making a fart, he had a face that anyone could see.

‘A bastard like a bastard.’

I already knew that Do-gyeom’s political inclination was like that of a bat, but when the painter treated Do-kyeom preferentially and neglected Ye-ju’s own company, I felt sad.

As we walked in the direction facing each other, the distance soon came closer and I heard Do-gyeom talking to the fireman.

“…Since I ate a lot of bribes from Lee Gak and Gwaksa in the past, if I recommend the fireman’s governor as Seoju’s company instead of me, the appointment letter will come down immediately. Even if you capture all the cities of Xuzhou by force, it is still under Han. If the emperor appoints them, even the governors will not dare to rebel…”

Do-gyeom, who was talking to the painter, found the princess belatedly and stopped talking.

“Curm! It’s been a while. princess.”

“It seems that you have been heard by the request. Hwabu Taesu.”

The princess ignored Do-gyeom’s greeting and greeted the painter.

“Are you going to get treatment too?”

“Yes, I wasn’t seriously hurt, but they said I needed to get treatment for the time being.”

“Then treat yourself well.”

“yes.”

As the painter lightly greeted him and passed by, the princess glared at DK once more.

Even though DK met the princess’ eyes, he wasn’t afraid at all and instead followed the fireman with a fishy smile.

‘The son of a bitch is like a very shitty puppy!’

stop.

The princess cursed Do-gyeom in her heart, but suddenly the words he had just said to the fireman replayed in her head, and cold energy ran down her spine.
