Chapter 401

Episode 401. Also Zhuge! (2)

The fireman’s eyes frowned.

Now, if you are generous, and the other person does not accept it, you have no choice but to treat him accordingly.

“Now you bow your head to me to find your father’s body, but how can you do that in your heart? It’s become a relationship where you can’t be happy with each other, so let’s go away. Hello.”

“Your master.”

“Please hand over the body of Jo hyung, who has been burned, to Angi.”

“I take orders.”

“I will go to Nakrang-gun.”

stop.

At Joang’s words, the fireman stopped moving.

When I turned my head and looked at Joang again, I saw that he was lying flat with his head on the floor.

The fireman continued to speak coldly towards such Joang.

“If you go to Nakrang County with your family, I will keep my promise to your father, brother Cho. However, if you show even the slightest impure intentions, you will be annihilated.”

“Thank you for the kindness of your uncle.”

“It would be better if you and I don’t see each other anymore, but I sincerely hope that the deceased brother Joe will not mourn the death of his family, even underground. This is my last request, I don’t want to get my hands dirty with you!”

It was difficult for Joang to answer, so he burst into tears that he had been

holding back.

The fireman looked at him and turned his head with a pitiful expression.

“Stop going. Since this is the last way for Joe, I will have my men take care of the travel expenses.”

“Sir, then we’ll be leaving. Please live forever!”

When Joang and his party bowed one last time and withdrew, the fireman let out a long sigh as if his mind was confused.

“The principal.”

While doing so, Gafu approached and cautiously called the fireman.

“Why?”

“Joan has many younger siblings. Shouldn’t you be mindful of the case when they don’t follow your brother’s advice?”

The fireman’s face slightly frowned at Gafu’s words.

In fact, Jojo was a person who revealed his female color enough to have a history of passing over to the beauty world of Gafu. That’s why he had several concubines besides his head, and enjoyed sleeping with countless women while traveling on the battlefield.

In an era when there was no special contraceptive technology, there were a lot of Jojo’s children who looked like that.

If one of those children did not go to Nakrang-gun and remained somewhere and took power in the name of his father, there was a high possibility that the generals and family members who followed Jojo would follow him.

“I definitely made an appointment with Joe. If you don’t follow me... I made it clear that I couldn’t look after you then.”

“But...”

Gafu continued cautiously.

“It can become a big fire by leaving a small ember for no reason.”

“done. Isn’t the story already over? Have you still not understood my heart?”

When the fireman’s voice changed, Gafu hurriedly bent his back.

“How can I not know the heart of the Lord? I’m really sorry if my words hurt you, but I just said it because I thought of a way to prevent a small fire from becoming a big fire.”

“Is there a way to keep it from becoming a big fire?”

“That’s right.”

When the painter looked at Gahu again, he quietly opened his mouth.

“The reason why the bonfire is getting bigger is because we can’t manage it, but in the end, it has to be because the power of the epicenter is strong. So, it is only natural that if a large firewood is removed from a bonfire, even if the flame survives, it will not last long. If you treat the generals and secretaries who followed Jojo generously and make them subjects of the Duke of Ju, not only will the power of the Duke of Ju increase, but I think it will be a way to eliminate any possibility that Jo Ga will become a source of concern for the Duke of Ju.”

The fight between Gyoju and Yangju was secretly interfered by those who received orders from Eulji to induce the destruction of both sides. Because of this, it was a situation where the war had to go on for a long time while maintaining a tight frontline so that the aspect of the war would not lean to either side.

However, less than three months had passed since the fight between himself and Cao Cao ended, but a call came that the fight between Sun Ce and Sa-seop had ended.

“It’s already over? Surely, when you received the report not long ago, didn’t you say that you were going to the aspect of co-destruction?”

“Obviously, it was, but all of a sudden, contact was cut off from Sun Ce’s camp, and it is said that several surprising plans were executed. Because of this, my subordinates couldn’t handle it, and belatedly sent a lot of military supplies to Sa-seop’s camp, but they couldn’t reverse the momentum once lost, and eventually Sa-seop surrendered in Gyoji-gun.”

The painter couldn’t open his mouth for a while after hearing Eulji’s words.

And then, as if something suddenly came to mind, he put on a worried expression.

“If we had lost contact with the Sejaks... Sun Ce might have noticed that Lord Danju was touching the war behind the scenes.”

Eulji let out a deep sigh.

“That is exactly what I am worried about. Otherwise, we cannot cut off the contact network of so many tribals at once.”

“Then Sun Ce might be grinding his teeth at us by now.”

“Though their mouths are heavy, it must have been difficult to endure the severe torture. Also, aren’t the enemy’s brains none other than the Zhuge Army? If you’re a clumsy person, you’ll pass it, but I don’t think you could have escaped suspicion from Soldier Jegalgeun.”

“I guess it’s almost like that.”

The painter thought the taste was bitter.

“Then Sun Ce might point a spear at me...”

“I still have to look into the situation more, but if that’s the case, I’m sure he won’t bend over.”

The painter recalled that Sun Quan had urged him to surrender when he came to condolence the death of his eldest brother.

In fact, the reason Sun Ce and Sa-seop coordinated the fight through Eulji was that they did not accept the invitation to surrender. If you lose your strength, it will be easy to surrender.

But now it has turned into anger.

“Ha~. While I was fighting with Cao hyung, I did my best to avoid getting stabbed in the back by Sun Ce, but I didn’t expect it to backfire like this.”

“But since we won the fight against Jojo, we have time to monitor the situation and prepare. If we didn’t get involved and Sun Ce ended the fight first, he would have had to worry about his back while fighting Cao Cao.”

When Eulji made a slightly unhappy expression, the painter waved his hand slightly.

“When I said that it was counterproductive, I didn’t mean to blame the lord Eul. I’m just saying I’m sorry things didn’t go the way I intended.”

“.....”

“Keuheum By the way, if you lost contact with the trio, you wouldn’t know what Sun Ce is preparing right now, right?”

“Not all of the three plants that were planted around Sun Ce died, so we can know roughly.”

“Then what is Sun Ce doing now?”

“There is no particular trend yet, and it is said that they are currently absorbing the power of Sa-seop and pacifying the remaining castles of the religious leader.”

“Well, even if Sa-seop surrendered, not all governors surrendered, so the fight isn’t completely over yet.”

Hwabu himself came to the imperial palace with some of his servants, but many of the tacticians and generals such as Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu were still pacifying the remaining castles in Giju and Yuju.

“It is. In addition, Gyoju is a place where there are many jungle areas and many powerful tribes whose names are not known, so it will take a lot of time to calm down. Perhaps it will take longer for Sun Ce to subdue the cult master than for us to subdue Qi and Liu.”

After hearing Eulji’s words, the painter thought for a while.

“If, as we expected, Sun Ce is willing to point a spear at us later, why not strike Sun Ce first?”

Eulji’s eyes widened at the fireman’s words.

In Eulji’s opinion, the relationship between Son Ce and Hwabu could be said to be very close, apart from the rivalry between feudal lords.

Moreover, due to the fireman’s inclination, he had rarely suggested attacking first.

Of course, like Cao Cao, in the special situation of being his brother’s enemy, he talked about going first, but Sun Ce did not.

“You’re saying you’re cheating?”

When Eulji asked back in surprise, the painter smiled bitterly and opened his mouth.

“We’re going to fight anyway. There’s no reason to postpone it, right?”
