Chapter 365. Ghost on the ploy (2)
“How could I miss such an important meeting?”
Sun Ce tried to get up again, but the lawmakers and Sun Quan stopped him.
“Your brother is still ill. And all of your elder brother’s generals and schemers are wise, so even if you’re not there, you’ll be able to come up with a plan to defend against the leader’s attack.”
“her! I shouldn’t have gone hunting then...”
“Brother, then please take care of yourself.”
“Yeah, I got it. There are many cases where the opinions of Zhuge Lieutenant and Homeless Tactician are in conflict, so coordinate well.”
“yes.”
After Sun Quan bowed his head slightly and left, Sun Ce went to the bed and laid down on his body, letting out a long sigh.
I was told to rectify my body, but my mind was already uncomfortable, so even if I lay down on the bed, I couldn’t calm down.
“Is the heaven forbidding you to turn your back on the life you received from Eosa Daebu? How did the religious leaders, who had been divided for so long, suddenly become so united that they could attack General Ye?”
He knew that his younger brother was smart, but he was still too young to replace himself. If you do it wrong, you can lose momentum all at once. Sun Ce’s mind was getting more and more complicated.

Jegalgeun also had a complicated screening process.
‘Does Sa-seob have this level of ability?’
While discussing countermeasures against the leader’s provocation with the bookkeepers, Zhuge’s examination was getting more and more twisted. If Sa-seop really has that level of ability, he will get more tired in the future.
‘It’s not like that. If I had that ability, I would have done it long ago. Some say that some of the group that came with Soon-wook escaped to Gyoju.
No matter how much I thought about it, I thought it would be the most credible.
Clearly, Sa-seop did not have a bookmaker to speak of.
Because of this, it is true that Jegalgeun had looked down on Sa-seop a little.
If, as he expected, one of Jojo’s secretaries taught him how to unite the powers of the governors, it would not be a big deal, but if he continues to give wisdom to Sa-seop, Sa-seop is by no means an easygoing person.
Considering the power of the leader, in the worst case, it might end up in a situation where it is difficult to predict the whereabouts of the fight.
‘Didn’t Soon-wook say he was already expecting his own death when he was arrested? It would be correct to say that you have already thought about the aftermath. Were there any outstanding masters among those who practiced? You’d be right to think he’s helping Sasub.’
Jegalgeun, who had been pondering over and over again, suddenly had a question.
“What should Zhuge’s soldiers do?”
Zhuge Kun hurriedly put aside his thoughts and looked at Sun Quan.
“yes? What did you say?”
When Zhuge Geun asked, Sun Quan’s complexion naturally frowned.
Mind wandering in the middle of such an important meeting?
If someone other than Jegal-geun had done that, he would have sent Chidogon right away.
“I’m asking whether it would be better for General Ye to defend himself or to break the momentum of the leader’s army by launching an attack.”
“Ah yes. sorry. In the current situation, of course, I think it would be better to lead all the troops to defeat the cross-cutting spearhead and counterattack.”
Nosuk received Jegalgeun’s words.
“The religious leader is a place with a fiery temper. They can burn brightly for a short moment, like adding oil to a bonfire, but over time they go out on their own. So, wouldn’t it be better to hold on to Mercury first, figure out the enemy’s weakness, and then attack?”
Hearing Nosuk’s words, Jegalgeun made an absurd expression for a moment.
“Right now, there are 200,000 Gyoju troops who have invaded Yejanggun, and all forces have not arrived yet. However, as long as we defend it with Mercury, the enemy’s forces will increase and eventually we will be able to use full strength, and on the contrary, we will be at a disadvantage by that much. But how do you claim Mercury?”
“The Lord is still not fully healed. So, let’s hold on to Mercury and wait for the enemy’s strength to drain and the main attack to be perfected.”
“The Duke of Zhou is wounded, but the generals are all like tigers and dragons. And the gyoju doesn’t even have a very good bookseller. So, you have to shake it around to scatter it before it comes together.”
“What is the reason the religious leader can provoke us like this? Isn’t it because everyone knows that the lord is ill? So, first of all, holding on to Mercury and aiming for a gap...”
“It’s really frustrating. Why is it that our Yangju soldiers are healthy...”
“Jojo is shaking hands.”
“It can’t be helped. Cao Cao would also know that it is not right to inflate the military force like that.”
Clink clack clack clack.....
Then, suddenly, the sound of metal clashing came from far away.
“What are you talking about?”
“I will find out right away.”
As soon as the fireman ran out of words, one of the guards ran to the sound and checked the situation and returned.
“Macho, the longevity of the 2nd camp, and Taesa, the longevity of the 3rd camp, were competing with spears.”
The place where the soldiers of Seoryanggun and Ikjugun built the camp was the 2nd camp, and the place where Sajugun and Seojugun built the camp was the 3rd camp.
Both generals were young and boasted outstanding bravery in their respective camps.
The fireman’s eyes suddenly became round.
After the inspection of the youngchae, the ceremony was supposed to be held when the emperor’s household was gone tomorrow.
There is an old saying that internal turmoil is more terrifying than a strong enemy.
“No, why are you two fighting?”
“There was a small quarrel between the soldiers, but it seems that it escalated into a fight between the generals.”
The fireman received the guard’s report and hurriedly walked to the place where the sound of spears clashing was loud.
As the fireman’s party approached, the onlookers split left and right and bowed.
Macho and Taesaja did not stop fighting as if they were busy fighting even as the fire department approached.
“My bastards right now...”
“Leave them for a while.”
“yes?”
Jang Goe, who was about to shout at Macho and Taesaja, put on a slightly puzzled expression when the painter stopped him.
“The cause of the quarrel can be investigated later... but isn’t it quite worth seeing right now? And neither side seems dangerous.”
“I guess so.”
Janggoe closed his mouth at the fireman’s words.
In fact, the fight between Macho and Taesaja looks brutal on the outside, as if they were fighting for their lives, but if you look closely, you can see that they are competing in martial arts to the extent that they do not cross the line in moderation.
Janggoe was a little startled inwardly.
Although he was watching the fight between Macho and Taesa, he heard the judgment that it was not dangerous only after hearing the fireman’s words.
I’ve definitely seen it together, and I’m much more confident in the number of times and times I’ve fought the enemy on the battlefield, so how can the fireman see through the momentum of the fight first?
If the person who said this was Guan Yu or Equipment, it would have been taken for granted, but since he was a painter, it was surprising.
‘I knew Ju Gong was a master, but did he even have an eye that surpassed me? I don’t know how the hell it ends.’
Kkackakkang boom.
After a while, after the spears collided violently, Macho and Taishi took a couple of steps back, as if they had promised in advance.
Then he turned to the fireman and bowed.
“Meet the governor.”
“Meet the governor.”
“Why are you making such a fuss?”
“That’s it...”
Macho and Taesaja glanced at each other, but couldn’t speak clearly.
