Chapter 138

Episode 138. Don’t call me, battlefield (1)

When the Yellow Turban enemies of Cheongju turned to Yeonju instead of going to Giju, Yeonju’s company ties immediately sent an official letter to the prefectures of each prefecture to gather troops.

Ostensibly, Yeonjugun and the Yellow Turbans started a fight, but because of that, the review for Eulji, the bishop of Yeonju, was very complicated.

“Looks like the headmaster is finally using his hand.”

That was his concern.

“This must be a ploy by the religious leader to kill me... I will have to disguise the executioners as righteous soldiers and help Yeonju.”

Eulji gathered the power of Taepyeonggyo, which was scattered throughout Yeonju, into one place.

Since the fight hadn’t started yet, he wouldn’t join the Yeonju army right away, but seeing the situation on the battlefield, he was thinking of striking the Yellow Turban enemy in the back.

After receiving the order from Yeonjosa, Hwabok, the county commander of Dongu County, ordered the county guard to lead 1,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry to join Yeonju’s army.

This amounted to 90% of the Dongu County government forces, and the reason why the remaining 10% was left was to maintain public order.

As the government forces escaped from Dongu County, those hiding in the shadows raised their heads and began to stand up. They started plundering, murdering, and even setting fire to fire, and among the leaders of the group was Unya, the head of the disgraced Unga Merchant.

Unya, who is said to have fled at night, became a black trader based on his remaining money and his loyal family members, and over the course of three years, his rent was greatly increased.

After becoming a black trader, Unya became cold and cruel. And I was able to hear information from the dark side that I couldn’t get into in the sunny side.

“It’s been fun. If you wear a yellow sash on your head, everyone becomes a yellow turban. And if you take it off, you will become a normal citizen.”

Hearing Unya’s murmur, Gasol laughed bitterly.

“The Yellow Turbans are now engulfing the Jiju area and are terrifyingly increasing their power. At a time like this, even if a county lord dies, the imperial palace has no energy to care.”

“That’s right, in a mess... anyone can die. If you wear a yellow sash around your head, you can discuss the ball.”

“....”

“I’ll give you money, so gather talented ronin.”

“All right. Lord.”

When Gasol, who had received the money, withdrew, Unya sharpened his teeth until they made a clicking sound.

“Hwabok is not only you, but among the merchants who sympathized with you, especially Wu. Only you guys will personally slit their throats.”

“Where are you going in such a hurry?”

A very welcome voice came to the ears of the fireman who had been riding for a while.

When I turned my head, Ban-gal, Ban-hee, Woo-geum and Woo-eun were riding horses coming from the left fork.

“I haven’t seen you in a long time. half old.”

The fireman tried to call Bangal a master because he had inherited the secret technique of Bangal through his older brother, but Bangal did not allow it, so he called him an elder.

When the painter greeted, the disciples and the two guards (Janggoe Ok-ju) also greeted.

“How have you been?”

After the greeting, Bangal asked the fireman again.

“yes. Where are you going, old man?”

“I have a junior student I care about, but I’m on my way to help him because the world has become a mess.”

“Oh~. Are you going to play?”

“Heh, you’re quick-witted. But if it’s this way... It looks like Congressman Hwa is going to Yeonju too. Am I right?”

“yes. I am also going to Donguhyeon because I am concerned about my brother’s safety.”

“I’m going to go the same way for the time being.”

“yes. But who is your favorite junior student?”

“Do you know what Poshin is? I was in the imperial palace before, so even if you haven’t seen it, you might have heard of it.”

“If you’re Poshin-nim... are you talking about the person who is on top of the prayer, just like Jo-hyung?”

“You seem to know.”

“I haven’t seen it, but I’ve heard that strategy and tactics are good. By the way, do you intend to help the Po prayer committee?”

“Then I must go to Dongu County with Congressman Hwa.”

“It only needs to go back a little bit, so let’s go together.”

The painter felt a great sense of relief at Woo-eun’s decision, but on the other hand, he also felt regret.

‘It would be nice to make it my own person... but there is no justification for it. I have no choice but to make him become his brother’s person.’

While Hwabu and his party went to Dongu-hyeon with Bangal and his party, the 50,000 imperial army led by General Hajin was divided into three divisions and marched toward Giju.

The Yellow Turbans numbered 500,000, ten times the imperial army, so Zhang Jiao did not wait for the imperial army to come and called his younger brothers and divided their troops to meet the enemy.

“Kuh, isn’t this like an ant rushing to bite a tiger? branch factory. artificial general.”

“Your heavenly commander.”

Zhang Guo deliberately summoned his two younger brothers to the military command.

“I will go to Gwangjong and take charge of the Hwang army’s allies, and the Ji factory army will lead 150,000 soldiers and go to Yeongcheon and take charge

of the left army.”

“The artificial factory army also led 150,000 soldiers to Changsha to take charge of the southern army.”

“I follow the command of General Cheongung.”

When the 300,000 soldiers under Jang Gak’s orders were divided into two groups and headed for Yeongcheon and Jangsa, Jang Gak led 200,000 soldiers and headed for Gwangjong.

No matter how much the Yellow Turbans were gathered, it had the power to raise morale with no difference tenfold.

While on the way to Don Gu-hyeon, Bangal took care of the fireman’s martial arts whenever he could, so that he could make up for his weaknesses and make use of his strengths.

The painter received the teachings of Vangal and experienced a new world of swords that he had never experienced before, even though it was a short period of fire and 15 days.

“The achievements of Dr. Hwa are superior to those of any student I have ever taught. Maybe now, even if I compete with Geumi, I won’t lose easily.”

“Could it be that much?”

When the painter trembled with humility, Vangal waved his hand.

“No, really. I’ve said it before, but if it wasn’t for the Shinseng-like medicine, I would have made him my disciple.”

“Haha, thank you for teaching me so far.”

“Okay, after entrusting my Geumi to Posin, when I go back to my hometown, I’ll be able to visit Euni as well.”

“All right. Maybe I’m not there... Keep that in mind.”

“How can the culprit of Shinseon’s traces... Kheheum Anyway, let’s see if it is meant to be.”

“Okay, then take a look.”

“Eun also helps Hwa Hyeon-ryeong well.”

“Your master. I’ll see you when you come.”

After Vangal and his party disappeared, the fireman called Janggoe after a while.

“Jang Ho-beop.”

“Yes, Senator.”

“Put in a chimney to inform Bishop Eulji of my arrival and let him report how the battle is going.”

“All right.”

When Jang Goe separated from the party and began acting secretly, the fireman took the rest of the party to the prefectural office in Dongu County.

While going to the prefectural office, I looked at the private houses, and I could feel the horror with my skin, which was quite different from before.

‘Everyone, from women to children... they all carry at least one weapon!’

vigilance and distrust. In just a few months, Donguhyeon has become a completely different prefecture.

‘This is why war is scary.’

The painter let out a long sigh and entered the county hall.
