Episode 256. Sometimes you need to be cool (1)
“Finally, these rat-like bastards are caught!”
When Jin-gyu got closer to the enemy general by only about 30 shots, he smiled cheerfully and raised his sword high without realizing it.
As the enemies fled, they split into two branches, one with generals and generals, and the other with some generals and cavalrymen.
Jin-gyu and his generals pursued the first branch, and the deputy commanders and their generals pursued the second branch.
At first glance, the words of the enemy commander were exhausted, and the words of himself and his subordinates were still overflowing with energy.
“Whoever cuts the heads of those two generals will be made a general from now on, and I will give you a gold crown as a reward.”
As soon as Jin-gyu’s words fell, the attitude of the subordinate generals suddenly changed.
“Hey!”
“They are mine.”
“what are you talking about! That neck is mine.”
Dududududu......
The horses of the subordinate generals rapidly increased their speed and rushed forward like an arrow.
Hii -Ying .....
The two enemies and military officers turned the jockeys and rushed into the wind as a cheating.
Of course, the generals under Jin-gyu also attacked the enemy general as if they were trying to win each other.
A situation where seven generals attack two generals at the same time.
Jin-gyu did not doubt the death of the enemy generals. Even though they had been subjected to night raids and surprise attacks, they had never doubted their skills.
the class is different.
Kwak kak kak kak.....
Ugh! Wow!
Jingyu had no doubts that he had caught the rats, even until spears collided violently and two subordinate generals fell from their horses in an instant.
Chow ah.....
But after a while, the situation changed drastically as two more generals died and the spears of the remaining three generals left their hands and flew into the air.
The three generals who barely survived turned their heads.
In an instant, the morale of the entire army was shattered. Jin-kyu reflexively turned his head and started to run away.
‘Oh, how can this be so ridiculous...’
All of the generals of the military were masters who had passed the martial arts exam as the top rank in the past, and they were said to be within ten fingers in a defeated country. However, they are running away without even hitting the window a few times.
It’s coming and going...
Hearing the sound of horses’ hooves, he glanced back and saw three of his subordinate generals following right behind him. And after a while, it started to run ahead.
Is the horse good, or is the horsemanship superior to him?
For a moment, Jin-gyu was speechless.
No matter how defeated he was, the general did not think of saving himself as the commander and left him behind and ran away first.
This couldn’t have happened and it shouldn’t have happened.
“And and General! Cow General! General Gwang!”
Jin-gyu urgently called the generals, but they pretended not to hear and were busy running away.
‘I can’t believe I’ve been putting such idiots in the general’s position until now!’
Even in the midst of such an urgent situation, Jin-gyu remembered the time when they passed the civil service exam to the manor and congratulated him and handed out the prize.
Suddenly.
And then another thought comes to mind.
‘Come to think of it, the ranks and sama at the time who judged them were all their uncles, uncles, and classmates!’
It was only now that I could see the truth hidden behind the guise of a defeated teenage military commander.
It was not because of their excellent skills that they attained the ranks of martial arts, but rather through personal connections and bribes.
“Are you the Jinkyu of the defeated nation?”
At that time, Jin-gyu heard the voice of the enemy general, like a hellish yakcha.
Jin-gyu did not turn his head, but instinctively realized that the enemy general was within reach.
Wow.
He swung the long knife he was holding in the direction of the voice.
For a moment, Jin-gyu did not understand what Yeo-po was saying and asked again. Who in the world is escorted by the Onhu, whom even the emperor ignored?
Jin-gyu was speechless for a moment, then asked again.
“Did you really go to war as an escort?”
“Yes.”
“Who is he?”
“I will see you in a little while.”
Jin-Gyu wanted to ask more, but he kept his mouth shut. The generals who approached Yeopo were angry at what they were dissatisfied with.
“Woman General. What if I was the only one who went ahead like that?”
“I didn’t go ahead alone, but I made a quick decision because I hesitated at the crossroads and couldn’t make a decision. If I had been a little late, Commander Jin behind me would not have been alive.”
“Yeah, but you could have let us know that judgment.”
“I am not sure either. I just followed my senses.”
Jin-gyu made an absurd expression as he saw the longevity having a light argument with Yeo-po.
‘Who else is this man, who dares to equal the gentleman of the world?’
Jin-gyu opened his mouth to answer his curiosity, but then stopped.
Suddenly, Lu Bu and the other generals were slowing down the horses. And in front of them were the three generals who had fled earlier, the deputy commanders whose faces and clothes were tanned as if they had been attacked by fire, and other generals and soldiers.
It arrived at the camp of the allies.
Jin-gyu recalled that the deputy commander and his generals had followed other enemy soldiers instead of chasing the two fleeing enemy generals.
It was a slightly easier route, but looking at the shape, it must have been a rather steep field of thorns.
“Oh father. I’m glad you’re safe.”
The first person to greet her was her son Jindeung.
“Yes, fortunately Onhu saved me and I was able to overcome the crisis. But how did you end up rolling around in the charcoal field?”
“Suddenly, a fiery arrow flew and burned the placenta of Jinji. By the way, did you come? What.....”
“Let’s talk about the details later. Anyway, I’m glad you’re okay.”
“yes.”
As his father moved to the side, Jindeung turned his head to look at the generals who had saved his father.
‘uh? Those guys are Master Hwa’s escorts. But didn’t you say come after a while ago? How did this happen? There’s no way Lu Bu will be among them?’
Jindeung looked at the generals one by one with disbelief. All the generals were so energetic that I couldn’t pinpoint who came.
While his son was doing this, Jin-gyu looked at the deputy commanders who were a mess.
“Looks like you fell into an enemy trap.”
“Since you frantically pursued your fleeing enemy...”
Shang Jude of the two countries held on to the burnt wounds and even shed tears.
Jin-gyu passed the three deputy commanders and looked at his generals with their heads bowed.
“Generals and Generals So and Generals Gwang.”
“Sorry. Commander.”
“I think you guys would be better suited with a brush than a spear.”
“.....”
“Take off your armor and help with the work of the back.”
“.....”
“Why aren’t you answering? Shall I slit your neck right here?”
When Jin-gyu let go of his threat, the man called General Gwa lowered his head as if to hide his shameful expression.
“Oh no. I’ll go under Chief Jin’s...”
“Consider yourself fortunate to have saved your face.”
If it hadn’t been for a situation where a lot of people were dying and morale was at a rock bottom, I would have really cut my throat, not this much.
Jin-gyu promised himself that he would immediately dismiss them once the war was over.
Jin-gyu let out a long sigh after turning his head and seeing that the number of generals of the deputy commander had also decreased by more than half, similar to himself.
At that time, one of the deputy commanders pointed to the place where Yeopo and Woogeum were located.
“Commander, who are they? At first glance, I think you said Onhu? Are you referring to Lu Bongseon by any chance?”
