Chapter 257

Episode 257. Sometimes you need to be calm (2)

“The person who saved me and rode me on a horse is Onhu.”

Not only the deputy commander who had asked the question, but also the eyes of the others widened as if tearing.

“Are you really Yeo Bongseon Onhu?”

All of the deputy commanders were governors or ministers, but they did not dare to treat Yeo Pu.

“You said so. And I faced Guan Yu and the two equipment commanders by myself, and I was not pushed back at all. There are very few masters like that in the world.”

“If I had to deal with those monster-like Guan-wu and Jang-gi alone... On-hu would have been right. But how is he on our battlefield?”

“I came as someone’s escort.”

“yes?”

“What nonsense...”

“It looks like it’s coming over there.”

Jin-gyu turned his head and looked at the fireman riding a horse with soldiers from afar.

He noticed that the cavalrymen who had lined up behind Yeopo, Woogeum, and other generals were now Chohyeongun. Because of this, I guessed that the fireman would be their main work.

‘What the hell is this English?’

As the hwabu approached, all the generals and soldiers of Chohyeon’s army, including Yeopo, Woogeum, and Janggoe Haman, raised a salute.

The military rite was to raise the left or right hand not holding a weapon at chest level and bow the head.

flinch.

Leaders including Jin-gyu trembled or swallowed dry saliva when they saw that even Yeo-po was bowing to Hwa-bu.

“Fortunately, my generals arrived in time to save the commander.”

The fireman took the military rites lightly and looked at Jin-gyu.

“They say that Onhu is an escort for the monk... is that true?”

“Onhu is escorting me, but he is not my subordinate.”

“Isn’t that natural? How can a superior person after Eosa-seung came... keuhmm Anyway, but that kind of person is so respectful.”

There was envy and a bit of envy in Jin-gyu’s eyes as he asked.

The fireman had a rough idea of Jin-gyu’s intentions, so he didn’t waste time by asking questions he had prepared right away.

“Normally, they are on equal footing, but since they came to escort me and participated in the war, they raised a military rite. By the way, on the way, I noticed that most of the soldiers in Sopae Castle were not in the castle, but rather came out and maintained the camp... Can we fight?”

* * *

Gulp.

Hearing the fireman’s words, Jin-gyu swallowed lightly.

The 20,000 soldiers of Liu Bei’s army, who came out of Shaopai Castle in the distance, were slowly advancing, preparing to fight.

Even though the soldiers of the defeated army had accumulated damage and suffered great losses, which resulted in thousands of casualties today, there were still many more soldiers who could fight.

The problem was not with numbers, but with morale.

Even without looking at the fight between the enemy, whose morale had risen, and the allies, whose morale had disappeared and were only trying to escape, the results were clear.

‘If I want to win this war... I have no choice but to give my command to Master Hwasasa and let his generals lead the soldiers.’

Perhaps, even if you tell me the name of one woman, the morale of the soldiers will rise at once, just as the morale of the deputy commander and generals has risen now.

Jin-gyu let out a long sigh and opened his mouth to the fireman, as he had keenly realized how lacking in his abilities had been over the past few days.

“If I command it, it will be difficult to fight, but if Master Hwaeo leads the soldiers, wouldn’t it be worth fighting for if the soldiers were led by generals like Onhu?”

A slightly confused smile appeared on the painter’s face after hearing Jin-gyu’s words.

How long have you been waiting for the right time to hear this?

“Would you like to hand over your full powers to me, Commander?”

“It should be. Isn’t there a star? The other deputy commanders and generals will agree with me. Is everyone like that?”

When Jin-gyu turned his head to look at them, the sub-commanders were the first to nod.

“Who would object to Yeo Bong-seon becoming a general after coming here?”

“All the soldiers who will capture Sopaeseong together with Commander Hwabu, shout! Shout so that the mountains and rivers tremble in fear!”

Whoa.

At that moment, the soldiers shouted without saying who said it first.

More than 10,000 soldiers were killed and several times as many were injured, but the shouts sounded like that of a million troops.

* * *

“Why did he join the defeated army?”

Liu Bei let out a short sigh as he looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were exhausted from their activities over the past few days.

“I don’t know why they joined, but the skills of the generals who followed Onhu were also great. Even if I and Rain weren’t tired, they were people I couldn’t easily see.”

Looking at Guan Yu’s left arm wrapped in bandages, Liu Bei couldn’t decide whether to attack the enemy or retreat to the castle.

According to common sense, now was the best time to issue advance orders. However, as if a thorn had gotten stuck in his throat while eating fish, he was uneasy and reluctant to do so.

As Liu Bei was in conflict, the equipment knocked on her chest as if frustrated.

“Brother, right now, the morale of our troops is at its peak, and the morale of our enemies who have suffered surprise attacks, traps, and fire attacks is at an all-time low. If you don’t launch an all-out attack at a time like this, when will you?”

“I think so too, whoa. I don’t know what’s so embarrassing.”

“The reason my brother is uncomfortable is probably because Yeopo brought reinforcements. But war is a battle of strength. Please give me the order to attack.”

Wow.....

Just as Liu Bei was about to open her mouth, a loud shout erupted from across the field.

Not only the three of them, but also the generals and soldiers below had heard the sound, so they looked across the field for a while.

After a while, when the voice became quiet, Liu Bei opened her mouth.

“It looks like Onhu has been handed over command.”

“Damn it! What does Lu Bu have to do with the defeated army, why did he suddenly bring reinforcements to help?”

“Princess Yejuzaza seems to have wider feet than we thought.”

“No matter how wide your feet are, if you lured Yeo-po, you should go to fight DK. Why are you sending us to fight?”

Guan Yu clicked his tongue and opened his mouth.

“It would be easy to hit Dokyeom with Yeo-po. But can Princess Yuzhuzaza hold Lü Bu?”

“.....”

“Perhaps you will have to yield the land of Xuzhou, which was eaten upside down and occupied, to Lü Bu.”

“No matter how much I’m a woman... will it be like that?”

“I don’t know if it will or not. And since those things were embarrassing, the princess also sent Yeo Bu this way.”

The goal was also lost between the eyebrows of the equipment that insisted on an all-out attack.

If, as expected, Lu Bu brought reinforcements and took over the command, no matter how much morale was raised, it would not be easy to see.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu’s equipment were unable to give an order to attack, and they could not retreat to the castle, looking at the enemy camp and pondering for a long time.

Rumble.....

At that time, the enemies across the field suddenly began to retreat.

“The main enemy is starting to retreat.”

And the skirmishers who were out at the front reported this fact and confirmed it once more.

“My older brother Lu Bu also knows that it is unfavorable to fight in the current situation, so he intends to retreat and reorganize his forces. Are you going to just leave it like this?”

As the equipment stomped, Liu Bei and Guan Yu’s hearts also became impatient.

“Ooh, how’s your arm?”

“If it wasn’t for Lu Bu, this one arm would suffice for quite a few generals.”

Liu Bei’s eyes widened as Guan Yu swung the spear like a swing with his intact right arm.

“good night. Prepare for an all-out assault!”

Liu Bei shouted and mounted the horse with her two younger brothers and took the lead.
