I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 368
Chapter 368. Developing Civilization of War (1)
“This morning, four soldiers from Western Liangju came to the soldiers of Xuzhou who were imprisoned and distributed rice balls.”
“is it?”
A satisfied expression appeared on the fireman’s face after hearing the report from Apok (the soldier who manages the prison).
“I was aiming for that, but it wouldn’t have been easy to execute. Fortunately, he did well. The core of the heart will be solved only when we solve it. Wouldn’t it only deepen the goal if we looked at it from above? Since the soldiers of Xiliang made such a choice and showed generosity, the hearts of the soldiers of Xuzhou must have been sufficiently relieved. You don’t need to keep them locked up any longer, so release them and give them all wine and meat as prizes.”
“I take orders.”
Apok received the order of the fireman and went back to the prison to free the soldiers of Seoju who were imprisoned.
The soldiers of Xuzhou knew that they would starve after being locked up for three days, but when the Xiliangzhu soldiers who fought with them yesterday brought rice balls and were released in the afternoon, they realized all this and were happy with tears.
They went straight to the Xiliangju soldiers, apologized once more sincerely, and returned to their camps to tell their comrades what had happened.
“In fact, we knew very well what we had done wrong. I just got emotional. How could I have thought they would share something to eat with us?”
“My lord understands that feeling and forgives us again, so I don’t know how to repay this feeling.”
My co-workers were deeply saddened because they knew the punishment they were receiving, but they were thrilled to have been forgiven unexpectedly.
“Do you know where it is?”
An adjutant entered with a heavy load on his back.
“My lord said that the credit for reconciliation is greater than your mistakes, and served you meat and wine like this!”
Hearing this, Xu Liangzhu and Xu’s soldiers praised the fireman and deepened their friendship with each other.
Rumors of this kind tend to spread faster than galloping horses.
In the days following the ceremony and the march toward Giju, rumors spread throughout the county.
In time, the invisible walls between the soldiers almost disappeared, and the generals began to break away from the awkward relationship and strengthen their friendship.
As the relationship between the soldiers and the generals of both camps improved, tacticians such as Zhuge Liang and Ga Hu were surprised by the judgment of the fireman a few days ago.
One small incident could have caused a big crack in the entire military base, but rather, a good judgment led to the result of uniting as one.
Almost all rulings so far have been strict punishments to establish discipline.
However, the painter’s ruling overturned that common sense.
“I was impressed by the wisdom of Ju Gong who moved people’s hearts.”
When Gahu admired, the painter shrugged his shoulders slightly before opening his mouth.
“Isn’t a widower the way to know the feelings of a widow? Why do the soldiers of Xu Liangzhu not understand the feelings of the soldiers of Xu Liangzhu who preyed on them? Still, it must have been because he was angry, and likewise, he made fun of the soldiers of Xuzhou, but they knew very well that they were not very different from them. I just understood that they knew each other.”
“If it were me, I would have thought about it after punishing her first.”
“What are you talking about? As you know, wasn’t it my fallen nobleman? I just understand a little more the heart of the one who doesn’t have it.”
At the words of the fireman, Zhuge Liang smiled brightly.
“I was able to come this far with the help of the governor at that time.”
Then he spoke slowly.
“Because of this incident, the fight hasn’t even started yet, but it seems that friendship is starting to sprout.”
“The camaraderie has deepened, and the loyalty of the soldiers, who were impressed by the benevolent judgment of the Duke of Ju, has also increased.”
“Hehe, why are you doing this so hotly?”
While the painter was making a joke with an embarrassed expression, one of Eulji’s subordinates hurriedly approached from afar and raised a bow.
“I’m sorry to the governor.”
“What’s going on?”
“Five days ago, about 10,000 cavalry troops marched out of Kiju’s fortress.”
“already?”
Not only the painter, but also several bookkeepers and longevity looked puzzled.
It had only been three days since Hwabu’s army departed from the imperial palace. It was still at least another 15 days to go to Giju, where Cao Cao’s army was gathered.
“Isn’t it an attempt to attack our vanguard?”
“Even if we aim for the vanguard, isn’t it too early?”
“Contrary to the expectation that Cao Cao will hold out on the defensive, if he intends to find a way out with an attack, he may use a strategy to send out cavalry to attack the vanguard and blind us.”
The painter who was listening to Zhuge Liang’s words suddenly felt a heavy feeling in his chest.
Given the difference in military power by more than twice, it was expected that Jojo would engage in a defensive battle.
‘As expected, Jojo. I thought there was no scheme to induce such a melee because Xun Yu was dead… Maybe Guo Jia stepped up?’
Come to think of it, there were still many outstanding bookmakers in Jojo’s camp.
“If you dispatched troops five days ago, it’s not yet time to meet the advance party. The main force, we also have to prepare for the enemy’s shaking by sending our cavalry to the vanguard.”
When the painter tried to nod at Zhuge Liang’s words, Gafu protested.
“The fact that the enemy sent cavalry with good maneuverability may not simply be the goal of the vanguard. Maybe they can come back from the vanguard and attack our main unit.”
“To attack a whopping 2 million main force with only 10,000 cavalry?”
When Seo Seo put on an expression of incomprehension, Gafu raised his hand and pointed to the western sky where the sun was setting.
“We have to think that we are a large army. So communication is not smooth. We have currently divided the camp into three camps, and the divided camp is also divided into a couple of other camps. If enemies wear similar outfits, it’s hard to recognize each other until they’re close enough. But what if it gets dark by day? In fact, the counties of Xuzhou and Xiliangju became close, but they are still at odds with the counties of Ikju and Yangju.”
“I do have that weakness. But if the enemies are attacking, shouldn’t they be coming from the front? Wouldn’t it be hard to think of attacking the main force by breaking through the front line, skirmishing, and borders?”
“How would you feel if the enemy didn’t come from the other side and came round? Furthermore, if you match the same uniform with the same flag, there is a high probability of being deceived due to the nature of our military, which is a combination of the military of several states.”
Gafu’s concerns were reasonable, so other scribes couldn’t ask any more questions.
Now, it is more important to anticipate the enemy’s attack method and prepare for it than to push through the argument.
“Gafu bookkeeper’s opinion has a point. Cao Cao’s faction is also aware that they are weak, so it is certain that they will try to create a weakness through some ingenious method like now.”
“Then how about making the sentinels and skirmishers three times stronger than they are now?”
“Three times is not too
much.”
The painter listened to the conversation between the bookkeepers and nodded quietly.
Words a military officer said to soldiers when he was a medical officer in his previous life.
– You can forgive a soldier who lost in a war, but you cannot forgive a soldier who neglected his vigilance.
Boundaries are just as important.
“We will increase the number of guards and skirmishers by five times, and the generals and generals of each unit will double-check even if the approaching person is an ally, and inform them that they will not pass through until it is confirmed. Above all, each commander should not allow the soldiers to check it only, and order them to go out to meet them and check them.”
When the fireman suddenly intervened and gave the order, all the bookkeepers who were sharing their opinions were surprised.
“Isn’t it too much to increase your main attack power by five times?”
The fireman shook his head quietly.
“It may be a little tiring, but it’s better than having enemies come into your arms and create problems. Instead, let the soldiers take a break, and reward those who went out on a skirmish in recognition of their merits. I think the more scouting and vigilance, the better, now that we can’t grasp the enemy’s situation.”
“I take orders.”
When the fireman’s name fell, there were no more objections.
“How far is the advance party?”
“We have selected an advance party of 3,000 from each state and sent them in six directions.”
“Then, add 5,000 cavalry to each advance party to be prepared for any eventuality.”
“I take orders.”
“Do not be overconfident in victory because we have a 2 million army. Because even a small crack can cause the whole thing to collapse.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
The head of the bookkeeper and the longevity bowed to the fireman’s hair.
* * *
The war between Gyoju and Yangju has been going on for a long time while Hwabu is heading north to Giju with 2 million troops.
Yangju-gun, which accepted Nosuk’s opinion rather than Jegal-geun’s opinion and continued to defend it, eventually captured the capital of General Ye Jang-gun to Gyoju-gun.
As soon as Sa-seop captured the capital, the Gyoju army gained momentum and immediately marched to Danyang-gun, the heart of Yangju.
Quaang!
“Calm down, Lord!”
“I heard that General Yeh has been captured, so you have to calm down? I will no longer be able to entrust my soldiers to Kwon. Get your armor right now.”
“Joo Joo Gong!”
“Even if I bring the armor right away!”
“I see.”
The attendant, who tried to dissuade Sun Ce, took the armor and put it on as Sun Ce held a spear and exhaled ferocious energy.
Wearing all the armor, Sun Ce, accompanied by the guards, came out of the quarters and rode a horse to Yingchae, where Sun Quan was staying.
The Yeongchae of Yangju-gun was built on the border of Danyang-gun and Yejang-gun, and it took two days on horseback.
Sun Ce, who rode a horse for two days, was relatively fine on the first day, but by the next day, the speed of the horse had significantly decreased compared to that of the horses driven by the guards next to him.
“Are you okay, Master?”
“I am fine.”
Sun Ce said it was fine, but the guards were adjusting the speed of the horse to match the speed of the horse Sun Ce was riding.
“You can see a stream in front of the main hole. Let’s have a meal and go. We are also very hungry.”
“So be it.”
Sun Ce could not refuse his subordinate’s invitation.
When I didn’t move violently, I seemed to be fine, but when I rode the horse forcibly, my stomach ached as if my intestines were twisted.
After Sun Ce had a simple meal and rested, he got back on his horse and headed for Yingchai, but he could not run as fast as before.
But even so, by the time he reached Youngchae, his complexion had turned pale.
When he heard the news that Sun Ce had arrived, Sun Quan came out to meet him with a contemplative face.
“Tongue brother. How did you come all the way here?”
“I heard that General Yeh’s capital was captured by the enemy. What happened?”
“That’s it…”
Sun Quan tried to evade for a moment, then sighed.
“Please eat inside. I will tell you inside.”
“I get it.”
Entering the barracks, Son Kwon said that General Ye’s capital had been captured because one of the gates was smashed while defending against the enemy’s attack with the water castle.
Quaang.
At that moment, Sun Ce hit the table where the map was spread out.
“Why did you choose Mercury when we have 500,000 and the enemy has 400,000? I heard that the first move was only 200,000! How did you do something so against the law of war?”
“That’s because the enemies provoked it first, so I tried to defend myself and take advantage of the gap.”
Son Kwon, while paying attention, hurriedly made an excuse.
“You have to create gaps while attacking. Who the hell came up with this stupid ploy? Could it be that Zhuge Lieutenant came up with such a plan?”
“The Zhuge army insisted on attacking, but the homeless strategist seemed to have a better opinion of Suseong…”
Taang.
Once again, Sun Ce’s hand hit the table.
“What a fool! Nosuk is bright in size and administration, but doesn’t it match the battlefield! How could he come up with such an opinion here and did you listen to that homeless man!”
“That’s what the homeless bookkeeper said at the time.”
“Huh!”
The hand book was absurd and only laughed out loud.
He’s a younger brother who’s been very smart since he was young, and he’s been anxious since he’s seen how he fights a lot, but he still thinks he’s trustworthy, but he’s still young, as he was initially worried about.
“It’s not that I don’t understand your feelings, but now is not the time for long words. From now on, I will command the army.”
When Sun Ce held out his hand, Sun Quan quietly handed over the baton and bowed his head.
“sorry. I did my best, but my older brother took away the hard-earned land.”
“All you have to do is find the stolen land again. We will have a countermeasure meeting, so gather the scribes and generals right away.”
“yes.”
Sun Quan could have been ordered by a subordinate, but he hurriedly ran out and called the longevity and the secretaries.
After a while, the generals and secretaries gathered together began to come up with a plan to repel the lord’s army, regaining their lost energy when Son Ce stepped forward to conduct the meeting.
Juyu, who covered homelessness and homelessness, could not keep her mouth shut during the meeting, probably because of the result of failure, and listened to Zhugeun’s plan in a corner like a criminal.
