I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 348
Chapter 348. Pouring water into the sandcastle (1)
“Yes. Even common foot soldiers wore good armor. He also seemed to be in very good health.”
“No, no matter how many years Xuzhou has had a good year, haven’t wars continued throughout the territory? There were rumors that thieves were infested, and even children who couldn’t hold a spear were said to be requisitioned… Does that make sense?”
“I saw it with my own eyes.”
Wang Su emphasized once again.
“There were more than 100,000 cavalry, and the quivers of the archers were full of arrows, and the discipline was not disturbed even without an order.”
When Wang Su talked about his feelings after seeing the soldiers, Gong Rong’s complexion darkened even more.
He knew better than anyone else how good Wang Soo was.
“Did it really seem like the Fahrenheit brothers didn’t need our help fighting Cao Cao?”
“Yes, from my point of view… it looked like a powerhouse capable of fighting Jojo with only the flowerpot itself.”
“Does that mean that if the Fahrenheit brothers join forces… even Jojo can’t win?”
“If there is no variable called Ma-deung, it will definitely be so.”
“Ah, yes, they said that the Xiliang army led by Ma Teng and Han Su was heading to the Hwangdo. How much do you think the Xiliang army could take away from the Hua family?”
“I haven’t seen Huabu’s troops yet, so I can’t predict it, but the Xiliang Army is also famous for its bravery, so I’m sure we can omit about half of the Fahrenhei brothers’ strength right now, right?”
“It’s half… then it’s going to be a close match with Jojo.”
“yes. Most likely.”
“After all, if we want to live, we have to go under the Fahrenheit brothers?”
If you have to stick to one or the other in order to live, it’s the fireman’s side.
The Hwabu side would recognize the governor of North Sea as it is, but Jojo was never such a person. Even if he added strength, there is a high possibility that he would throw himself out.
“I kept thinking about it on the way back, but there was no other way.”
“Haa~ I guess I’ll have to bring a gift myself and go see the planter company.”
“If you think about the people of the North Sea, you are making a wise choice.”
Gong Rong listened to Wang Su’s words and nodded with a mixed feeling.
He knows how to see the flow of the current, so he knows that he should no longer be confined to the North Sea as a single general.

“The Xiliang army, led by the governors Ma Teng and Han Sui, is advancing on Hedo, but Cao Cao’s army in Jizhou is not moving.”
The fireman, who received the report of the broadcasting, bit his lip without realizing it.
“It’s not normal either.”
the appetite is bitter
“It wouldn’t be easy to give up the imperial palace.”
“I want to be like Jojo when I see him choosing practicality over cause.”
Pain in the stomach was also the same.
If Jojo does not match the rhythm, the board he has laid can become a threat.
“If you leave it as it is, Xu Do will fall into the hands of the Xiliang Army. Then the whole of Yeju will come under his influence.”
When Bangtong became concerned, the painter suddenly turned his head and looked at Eulji.
“Eulji Danju, how many troops do you have available in Yeju right now?”
People’s eyes were focused on Eulji with a sense of wonder.
“Are you asking about all your spare energy?”
“The enemy is right in front of us, so it’s not something to hide. Wouldn’t the people here also come up with a plan to know?”
Eulji listened to the fireman’s words and looked at the bookkeepers and generals such as Bangtong, Seo Seo, Sima Hui, Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun, the equipment avant-garde.
Then he opened his mouth.
“We have about 400,000 troops.”
“yes? 4.4 million? You mean you have that many troops?”
I stood up and asked in surprise.
“yes.”
“Didn’t you say that there were less than 200,000 troops left for defense in Yezhou?”
“We hid about half of our troops from view because Cao Cao could ask to borrow our troops when he goes to fight other feudal lords.”
As Eulji slightly lowered his head and asked for understanding, Seo Seo looked at the fireman and asked.
“Is it true what the governor Eulji Danju said?”
“It must be true.”
“Then, the Duke of Zhou had been thinking of arguing with Jojo from a very long time ago.”
“No, I never thought of it like that. However, the reason why I hid the soldiers was to prevent Cao Cao from mobilizing my soldiers at will by borrowing the emperor’s orders. Aren’t soldiers also people?”
“Hehe, he really has an excellent insight, and his conviction is a strategy that he would not dare to guess.”
“The Duke of Zhou, how did you hide a huge army of 400,000 without Cao Cao noticing?”
Hwabu smiled after looking at Eulji at Bangtong’s question.
“There is a special method that only Eulji Danju knows. Don’t bother trying to find out more.”
“yes. All right. By the way, 400,000 would be enough to defeat Ma Teng and Han Sui’s Xiliang forces.”
There are 200,000 soldiers stationed in Henae County, and the 50,000 soldiers who went out to lure the Xiliang Army to Hedo have not yet returned.
If they all return, a whopping 650,000 troops will be able to fight the Xiliang army, so they will be far ahead in terms of the number of soldiers.
“Zhou Gong, then, are you going to move your soldiers to attack the Xiliang army heading to Xuedo?”
At Eulji’s question, the painter shook his head slightly.
“no. When the Xiliang army attacks Yuzhou in Hedo, we will only defend it.”
Those who heard the fireman’s answer made a puzzled expression.
“yes? main ball. If you show all your strength, you will see that Ma Teng and Han Sui are the emperor, even though they are far more numerous than the Xiliang army.”
“What could be the reason Cao Cao gave up the imperial palace?”
“Of course, isn’t it because you want us and the Xiliang Army to fight and form a plan for both sides?”
“Will there be just that?”
“…..”
“There is almost one feudal lord representing several states, just as the other feudal lords call our soldiers, the fireman’s army. However, when referring to the Xiliang army, it is said that Ma Teng and Han Sui were the only ones. Why would you?”
“It’s because Ma Teng and Han Su are still fighting each other.”
“It is. That’s it. That’s why Cao Cao didn’t worry much when Xiliang forces took over the imperial palace. Of course, you must be thinking that I will keep you in check to some extent.”
“Do you think Jojo will use an alien world to separate the two?”
“Yes, not right away, but maybe if I fight them and lose or something, I will definitely do that.”
“Then, would you like to use the alien world, too?”
Seo Seo sneaked into the conversation and offered his opinion, and the painter put on a satisfied expression.
“Is there a way?”
“If we leave the two of them to occupy the imperial palace and reassure each other that they are never different, we can split apart with a single ember.”
“Originally, it was said that power cannot be divided into two, even between parents and children. Not to mention Ma Deung and Han Suji. Various bookmakers will have to think about what kind of embers to throw.”
“All right.”
“Pabalma has arrived from Jugong Ikju.”
At that time, a guard ran up and reported the news.
“In Ikju! Stop by.”
“yes.”
“I think it’s only been about 15 days since the Duke of Zhou sent someone to Ikju, but I can’t believe the reply has already come. It’s fast.”
When the avant-garde behind the fireman made a slightly surprised expression, Eulji smiled and opened his mouth.
In fact, the avant-garde is not a person with a high rank or who has made a contribution to being in a position to discuss such a serious countermeasure.
Somehow, however, the vanguard, who was recovering by doing chores at the military college, suddenly came one day and offered to become an escort to the fireman.
Thanks to this, the avant-garde is now attending this place in the capacity of a camouflage escorting firemen from close quarters.
“If you ride a horse on the land and take a boat on the water, Woljeon or Yunnan aren’t that far away.”
“No matter how it is, isn’t it very fast to make a round trip of 15 days?”
The vanguard thought it was enough to take Dalpo.
“Yes, but a good horse and a fast boat will save you time.”
The vanguard’s eyes widened in an instant.
It is common knowledge that a good horse can run fast, but it was difficult for a ship to be fast.
Another interpretation of Eulji’s words meant that there was a special boat that could reduce the travel time along the canal to this extent.
“Even if it’s a good ship used by bandits…”
“Does the former guard have any reason to be curious about Pabalma’s means of transportation?”
When Eulji cut off his words, the vanguard immediately lowered his tail.
“I am so curious. I presumptuously interfered.”
At the end of the vanguard’s words, Pabalma from Ikju bowed to the fireman and handed over the sealed letter.
“You worked hard to come a long way.”
“yes.”
“Have Woljeon and Yunnan been all pacified?”
“Yes, when I arrived, the equilibrium was over.”
The painter nodded his head as he read the letter.
“As expected, General Jang and Gahu’s secretaries remain.”
“If the Zhou Gong Woljeon and the pacification of Yunnan are over, are the soldiers from Yizhou now coming to help us?”
“Yes, they say they are heading north with a large army of about 500,000.”
“With an army of 500,000…. we can wipe out not only the Xiliang army but also Cao Cao’s army.”
“Even if the number of soldiers doubled, Xiliang and Cao Cao were not to be taken lightly.”
When the painter showed a cautious appearance, Eulji put on a slightly puzzled expression.
“It’s a more than double the difference in troops, and we have a lot more war materials, and our cavalry is probably more elite than the Western Army. But is there any need to resort to a complicated ploy by giving up even the imperial palace?”
“If you fight once, you take one damage, and if you fight twice, won’t you get twice the damage? No matter how fast they come from Yizhou, they cannot stop the Xiliang army anyway. Above all, I also have the idea that I don’t want to make the mistake of moving with enemies on both sides.”
“But Xi Liang will not be blind either, so he will know that a large army is coming from Yizhou.”
“It would be the case if we could come and go freely from Heodo, but wouldn’t it be easier if we surrounded it so that not a single ant could get out of Hedo?”
When the painter smiled, Eulji realized something and laughed a little dejectedly.
“Did you already give orders to the master of Myeongil?”
“One mistake is enough to lose a family member. I will do my best without giving any room in the future, so please cooperate a lot.”
As the fireman’s eyes flashed like those of a beast, Eulji unknowingly swallowed dry saliva.
Come to think of it, it was only a day or so that the painter shed tears and mourned the loss of his brother, Lu Bu, and Liu Bei.
Of course, even after that, I sometimes shed tears and gnashed my teeth, but that was all when people weren’t paying attention.
‘The Lord has changed terribly. You’re smoking a long life and dying!’
“I will do my best.”
When Eulji lowered his head, the fireman realized that death had bloomed without his knowledge and hurriedly took the picture.
Then he opened his mouth.
“Myeongil Danju besieged Hedo, but it may not be able to block the eyes of the Xiliang army. But don’t worry too much, as you won’t find out that a large army is coming from Ikju.”
