Chapter 415

Episode 415. I can’t let go of the lingering feelings (2)

“Heh, Jegal is also very frustrating. Are you saying that, knowing how much damage the infantry and archers will suffer if you take out the generals and cavalry fighting the enemy from the rear right now? All the skirmishers are well versed in the geography of this place, so even if it’s foggy, you should be able to take a good look around. So I can’t leave out the cavalry, who are fighting well, out of idle concern.”

“.....”

When Sun Ce firmly refused, Zhuge Kun could not open his mouth any more.

‘ha! There are many good places to hide ships and soldiers in the port of Malung County, where the thick reed fields are wide.

Every time I saw the mist rising in the distance, my anxiety increased, but the others didn’t seem to feel anything.

I looked at Noshik with a frustrated heart, but he didn’t say much, perhaps because he had a similar mindset to Sunche.

Wowing ... Wowing ...

Suddenly, the drums of the enemy lines changed, and the cavalry and infantry had shouted and attacked.

“Soldier Zhuge.”

After a while, as the battle on the battlefield intensified, Sun Ce slapped his knee and called Zhuge Keun.

“Your master.”

“I just remembered, but the water fog is thick towards the riverside, so what if I hide the archers and go out and lure the enemies once more?”

Jegalgeun thought for a moment, but Noshik nodded loudly and opened his mouth.

“The governor is truly a clever planner. Since the enemies do not know the characteristics of Malung-hyeon here, you will benefit greatly if you hide the archers in the mist.”

Jegalgeun thought that Hwabu’s army might already be occupying it, but he couldn’t bear to say more and nodded his head. Even if you think about it, if the enemy did not hide first, it was a place where you could hide the archers and benefit greatly.

“It seems like a good idea. From the enemy’s point of view, due to the darkness and fog, even if the arrows fly in, they cannot be seen, so they can cause great damage.”

“Haha, after a long time, the two soldiers and I agree! Then I will lure the enemies, so send me a messenger as soon as you two hide the archers.”

“All right.”

As Sun Ce rushed to the battlefield with the escort guards escorting him, Zhuge Kun and Lu Shik hurriedly rode ahead and looked around to find a suitable place to hide the archers.

Even though it was night and fog was forming, the two of us were already familiar with the geography of the place, so we were able to settle down after looking around on horseback.

“Why don’t we hide the archers in the reed fields on the left and right of the coffin over there?”

“Looks like a good location. The fog is exceptionally thick at the moment, so even if it is not a reed, it seems to completely cover the archers.”

When Zhuge Geun agreed, Noshik sent an aide-de-camp to summon 5,000 archers and hid them among the reeds.

When all the archers hid, he sent a messenger to inform Sun Ce.

Moments later, Sun Ce was seen leading a large group of enemies and luring them into a trap.

It was night, so it was dark, but judging from the shaking of the ground, it seemed that there were at least tens of thousands.

After the time for a few sips of tea had passed, both No-shik and Jegal-geun could see the face of Son Ce, who was driving the horse ahead.

The light of conversion was young on the faces of the three people who met their eyes.

Soon, when the enemy passes the archers’ hiding place, arrows will fly from the left and right and become a hedgehog.

Piying .....

Then a fire arrow flew somewhere and fell through the reeds where the archers were hiding.

In an instant, Sun Ce’s eyes widened.

Lu Shik and Zhuge Jin could not see the flaming arrow because they were looking this way, but Sun Ce could see the flaming arrow because they were facing each other.

The question of what was the significance of a single flaming arrow flying from the battlefield was the direction the flaming arrow flew.

‘Why are there fire arrows from the muzzle? The skirmishers searched the muzzle but said they couldn’t find the enemy...’

Pipipipipiping.....

Sunze’s doubts turned to astonishment as he saw the countless number of flaming arrows flying.

Fire arrows flew from the port side to the reed field and soon started a big fire.

The reed field in Bonsi has many swamps and wetlands, so fire does not catch well. But it caught fire like a dry reed and spread in all directions.

It was because the arrows with oil bags flew along with the flaming arrows.

“The enemy is hiding in the muzzle. Shoot!”

The painter trembled and relaxed his expression.

In the fireman’s opinion, it was more important now to prepare to catch Son Ce, who runs away by attacking the accountant as soon as possible.

Then we can end this war as soon as possible.

However, Zhuge Liang took the opportunity and chose a different direction.

The reason could be fully guessed by the fireman.

‘Are you trying to cut off the roots of power and make Sun Ce surrender? yeah that wouldn’t be too bad Even if it were me, if my older brother’s family were behind enemy lines, it would be difficult to stab him in the heart.’

The fireman made up his mind and said.

“I was just thinking about what happened next. A messenger by the way.”

“Your master.”

“How long has it been since the ruler of Wugun surrendered?”

“Three days have passed since I received the surrender before departure.”

“Then, the troops led by General Jegal must have reached the boundary of the Accounting Army by now.”

“General Zhuge Liang ordered General Guan Yu to lead the cavalry and set off first, so by now the cavalry should be attacking various counties of the Qi County.”

“Then, even if Sun Ce fled to the treasure trove, he would not be able to enter the city easily!”

“Since the purpose of the Great General’s departure is to block Sun Ce’s entrance, that’s probably the case.”

“I get it. You did a good job coming a long way. Stop and rest.”

“Your master.”

“Gafu military.”

“Your master.”

“Let us also send cavalry to pursue Sun Ce.”

“Your master! What should the size of the troops be?”

The fireman opened his eyes and gave the order.

“Send the whole cavalry.”

“The entire cavalry... yes I see!”

If all the cavalry move, it could endanger our allies if the enemy makes a detour. However, since the fireman’s order has already been given, expressing an opinion in this situation is not an opinion, but a protest.

Also, the fireman’s order was the best course of action, excluding that risk.

Kahoo said while recalling a number in his head in case something went wrong.

“A very good ploy.”

Reading Gafu’s mind, the painter shouted loudly.

“From now on, the generals leading the cavalry should stop chasing the soldiers and focus only on chasing Sun Ce.”

“I take orders.”

“Deliver my will to the generals fighting on the battlefield.”

“yes.”

When the fireman’s orders were given, the heralds rushed out, and the drums changed, the movement of all the cavalry, which had been spread out in all directions, changed in an instant.

The cavalry, which covered the entire battlefield, began chasing Son Ceman in an instant.

The painter turned his head slightly to see Sima Yi near the drummers in the distance.

Sima Yi, who met the fireman’s gaze, hurriedly lowered his head.

‘You have a face that accepts my orders quite satisfactorily. A person who is smart and ambitious. Even though I know it’s a rebel, if I see that my heart is going, it’s really a person.’

The painter turned his gaze away from Sima Yi and looked at the battlefield again.

It was daylight before I knew it, and now I could look in all directions without a torch.

‘It’s become a fight without worrying about losing now. From now on, how to win will be important.’

I hoped that even Zhuge Kun would quickly change his mind and surrender like Zhuge Liang’s will.
