Chapter 349

Chapter 349. Pouring water into the sandcastle (2)

When Hansoo saw the flag of the Western Liang Army planted on the wall of the imperial palace, he gnashed his teeth without realizing it.

“Isn’t this too fast!”

Han Sui did not rush for three days because he wanted Cao Cao and Ma Teng to fight and shed blood.

If he joined while the two were fighting, he thought that it would be difficult for Jojo to endure any longer, and then he would be able to show condescension and enter the palace.

Although the imperial palace in Heodo is large, it is not enough to encamp with 400,000 troops.

Furthermore, since Ma Teng’s soldiers had already occupied the key point, Han Sui’s soldiers who arrived later had to camp outside the imperial castle.

Hansu hurriedly entered the imperial castle with only the generals accompanying him without even watching the soldiers prepare the camp.

Upon entering the imperial castle, Macho came out to meet him.

“I haven’t seen you in a long time. Commander-in-Chief.”

“Where is Mazasa?”

“He is having a chat with His Majesty beforehand.”

In an instant, Hansoo’s face frowned.

“Don’t you know I’m here yet?”

Hansoo was not in a good mood. Isn’t it fitting that the person who should meet you when you arrive should be Ma-cho, not Ma-deung?

“You know.”

“You mean you came out even though you knew I came?”

“I’m sorry, General. Since we were with His Majesty, we couldn’t leave our seats recklessly. He has no other intentions, so don’t worry too much.”

Macho shrugged his shoulders and trembled slightly, and Hansoo’s lips trembled.

“I get it. Guide me.”

“yes.”

shit!

After a while, Hansoo lamented inwardly when he saw that the guards guarding the entrance of the royal palace were familiar Ma-deung managers.

Arriving only three days late caused a big problem.

‘But it’s still in the state of nongong peddling, Madung-ah! I will keep my eyes open and watch. If you monopolize the officials, I won’t stand still.’

As Cao Cao’s army was defeated and fled, even the officials who were given government posts by Cao Cao fled, leaving most of the official posts vacant.

A prince’s strength comes from the loyalty of his subordinates.

If you take care of your subordinates and occupy good government posts, dissatisfaction will surely grow among your subordinates.

“Meet the general.”

As the guards raised their bow, Hansoo looked inside and nodded.

“Tell me that I have arrived.”

“All right.”

The guard’s report was delivered to the inside through the naenggwan, and permission to enter was soon granted.

Hansoo was about to enter the royal palace, but the guard raised his hand to block it.

“I’m sorry, but it was before the war, so only the commander-in-chief asked me to come in. Also, General Commander-in-Chief must also disarm.”

“I get it.”

After having his guards on standby, Hansoo handed over the sword at his waist to the stomach. and went inside

Inside the palace, the emperor and Ma Teng were sitting facing each other over teacups and chatting.

“I know the emperor, Hansoo, the governor of Venus.”

Hansoo bowed to the emperor and glanced sideways at Ma Deng. A sword was hanging from Ma Deng’s waist. And the guards who guarded the back of the emperor were also familiar to the generals of Ma-deung.

Hansoo’s heart sank.

Even though it was only three days late, it felt like the imperial palace had been taken over by Ma Deng too badly.

“Mr. 20% is too much. Although I was a bit late, I lost quite a bit of blood fighting the soldiers of Hwabu in Hadong-gun.”

“I heard they were weak soldiers?”

“Oh no... that! I got caught up in a ruse...”

“I’m sorry, but even so, it’s more difficult than that.”

“Give me 40%. Shouldn’t I also stand face to face with my subordinates?”

“what? 40%! You put an iron plate on your face. It hurts my ears just listening to the rumors that don’t cost half a penny. I need to get out.”

As Ma Teng kicked off his seat and stood up, Hansoo quickly opened his mouth.

“If you give me 40%, I will take the lead when I appraise Yeju.”

stop.

For a moment, the movement of Ma Deng, who had been turning around, stopped.

Since most of Hwabu’s soldiers had gone on an expedition to Ikju, it was expected that between 150,000 and 200,000 garrison troops would remain in Yeju. However, even with a small army, if they fought ahead, they would suffer damage.

If Hansoo takes the damage instead, he benefits to that extent.

“If you lead the way, I’ll give you 30%.”

Jump up.

This time, Hansoo jumped out of bed and stood up.

“I can’t speak to you. I’d rather go back to Xiliang than not to raise my face against my subordinates.”

“okay. good. I’ll give you 40% of the official position. You must not break your promise to take the lead instead.”

At Ma Teng’s words, Hansoo’s butt went down to the chair again.

“Keuhum, the company and I are not two anyway. So...”

* * *

The faces of Hansu’s generals gathered after the nongong peddling were distorted as if they had chewed rotten pig liver.

“Seapearl risked his life and fought, but someone said he was the general of Ma company and I was the general there!”

Huseon was the first to complain.

General Geogi is a position that usually leads the cavalry, and in the military, it is the next position after General General Pyogi and General General Pyo. However, from the point of view of Huseon, who was in charge of the generals in Hansu’s camp, General Geogi could be said to have been demoted.

“General Hu, we cannot go on like this. No matter how late we arrived at the imperial castle, this is too much. Moreover, in return for receiving such an official position, he would be at the forefront of the fight against Yeju-gun. We have to meet the general and correct the injustice right away.”

“How do I straighten out a non-commissioned work that has already ended?”

“Awesome!”

The adjutant chewed his molars and said.

“At least you shouldn’t stand in the vanguard. Didn’t the General and I risk our lives to fight just to be treated like this?”

“You are right. I don’t intend to go on like this, so let’s all meet General Commander.”

After the longevity gathered their will, they went to find Hansu, but there were already schemers called Hansu’s tricksters who came first and were complaining for a long time.

After bowing to Hansu, the generals joined the ranks of the citadel with the scribes.

“Stop, stop, everyone. I am not deaf.”

Hansoo, who had been listening to the complaints of the bookkeeper and generals, suddenly became angry and raised his voice.

The loud noises stopped for a moment and then continued.

“If I took the imperial palace first and Ma Deng came in three days later, what do you think the performance would have been like today? Even though it’s out of shape, I got nearly 40% of the official posts. But if it were me, would I have given 40% of the government posts to the limbs of Madeng?”

“I wouldn’t have given it.”

“Then should I be content with getting this level of office?”

“That’s true, but instead, didn’t we stand at the forefront when we fought Yeju-gun?”

“Who wants to stand in the vanguard and fight like crazy?”

“yes?”
