Episode 307. Were they sake bottles?! (2)
Cao Cao collected the soldiers and left, and Hwabu remained in Wanwan, accepting Jangsu and Jiahu as low-ranking generals and counselors, and converting prisoners.
“Huh! Captain. Are there still that many people being arrested?”
The painter hung out his tongue as he looked at the prisoners who had been caught outside the finish.
Hundreds of soldiers were being captured every day from the forests and rivers, even though most of the longevity soldiers had converted.
“Most of those who have been captured these days are forr soldiers of Mupyeonghu.”
“Joe’s soldiers? Why did you arrest Joe’s soldiers?”
“We did not bring them, but they themselves ca to us.”
“You ca by yourself? ah! Well, if you co to , you must have wanted it to be easier to go to Heo Island.”
The painter was puzzled for a mont, but then nodded as if he understood.
The soldiers needed horses or grain to move to Hedo, but those who fled during the war could not have such things.
“no. I ca here to beco the army of Eosa Daebu.”
In an instant, the fireman’s eyes widened.
“You want to be in my army? Aren’t they the army of Muheunghu?”
“yes.”
“There seem to be quite a few people who look like generals, but are they like that too?”
“yes.”
“I don’t understand. If you are at the level of a military commander, you would know the relationship between and Mupyeonghu… Why do you want to beco my soldier?”
“It seems that Empress Mupyeong fell into intoxication due to the strategy of the longevity and did not take care of the soldiers at all. That’s why not only the soldiers but also the commanders are greatly disappointed and do not want to go back to Mupyeonghu. In addition, rumors of the Duke of Jugong seem to have shaken my heart. Most of them are rice wine bottles, but there were complaints about the musicians.”
“Cheongju bottle? them?”
“yes. Unlike the musicians, the sake soldiers always took the lead when a war broke out, and it is said that even if they did well, they were not rewarded.”
“Anyway, he was not treated better than Jo Hyung-byeong, who was originally a soldier of Jo’s brother.”
“yes. So, I have accumulated a lot of complaints, but I seem to have completely turned my back on it because I was so disappointed this ti.”
“Hmm~. Joe lost a lot in this war.”
“It’s self-employed. If you had treated the rice wine bottle and the performance bottle the sa in normal tis, even if you made a big mistake this ti, would they have turned away?”
“I guess so.”
In fact, the main reason why the sake soldiers turned to Jojo’s military service was that they were moved by seeing the fireman treating enemies with sincerity. So, when the sake bottles saw the fireman, they all turned their backs on Jojo.
“Most of them have been on the battlefield for a long ti, so they are good at fighting and brave, and they think of the main attack differently.”
With a very satisfied expression, Yeo-po looked at the sake soldiers who were claiming to be converts. They are the ones who have survived the harsh war that Cao Cao has been fighting.
Quite a few soldiers can survive even with foreman level skills.
“To lose such soldiers like this. Really, Joe made a big mistake this ti.”
“If you don’t go back to Hedo and restore trust, you will be in big trouble later.”
“Jo hyung seems to have realized a lot this ti, so he should go back and take care of the soldiers.”
“I will. Because I’m not a normal person. Besides, you’re seriously scolded by the governor, aren’t you?”
“Well, I didn’t an to scold you… In fact, I heard bitter criticism from misinformation because of that.”
“I know that the Duke of Ju is concerned about his brother-in-law, but I am of the sa opinion as Congressman Oh Bo. There was no need for you to wake up like that.”
“Haha, it’s already past, so what can I do? I will be careful from next ti.”
“It’s not entirely wrong, though. From now on, when they see Ju Gong, they will rember him as soone who can openly speak bitterly against Mupyeong-hu.”
“Well, that’s what I was aiming for. By the way, if most of them are rice wine drinkers, I should take my disciples and at least ignore them.”
“They will be very happy if you do that.”
After a while, when the hwabu and the disciples of the hwabu appeared with Lu Bu, the soldiers of Cao Cao, who were waiting in line to convert, greeted Cao Cao with even greater respect than they did to Cao Cao.
“Mr. Hwabu, no, Mr. Eosa. I’m Jong-su, who was dying in the valley of Mt. Do you rember anything?”
“Eosa Daebu, I fell and broke my leg in the battle of Imchiseong…” ”
Eosa Daebu. This is Dochil. Arms were cut off…..”
“…..”
From the scars on the stomach to the scars on the arms and legs, or the surgical site on the head, the number of soldiers sifting eggs was uncountable.
‘I can’t rember too many faces… but only and my disciples can leave such surgical scars…..’
When the painter and disciples saw the rice wine bottles, mories of treating them in the past ca to mind. In an instant, it changed to a eting between a councilor and a soldier, not a eting between a feudal lord and a soldier.

Eulji and Lee Dangji’s mouths burst with joyful screams.
Over 300,000 soldiers gathered inside and outside of the completion without realizing it.
150,000 of the troops led by Hwabu and those hidden later had already been returned to Yeju, so 250,000 new troops were created excluding the remaining 50,000 Yeju soldiers.
Hwabu ordered Eulji and Lee Dangji to retire 100,000 of them and to be absorbed by Haomun.
Li Dangji, the original city, was the lord of Haomun in Yangju, but he had so power and influence in Jingju as well. However, when he gave 100,000 troops, he had the ability to unite Haon across Jingzhou.
“I have to do well so that I don’t get noticed by the tribals.”
At Eulji’s words, Lee Dangji shrugged.
“It’s not like you’ve only done it once or twice, and you don’t have to worry because you’ve already figured out all the movents of the surrounding tribals.”
“Well, I’m not really worried about it, but I’m just saying be careful. Anyway, Jingzhou is a large land, so it will take at least two years to unite Haon and make it into the full power of the Duke of Zhou.”
“I already have the groundwork laid, so it won’t take long. If we hurry, we can make so tangible results in one year.”
“Well, since the largest military statue in Jingzhou, Dangsang, is already in the hands of Congressman Lee, getting the other military statues in his hands won’t be too difficult.”
“Having half a year to integrate the people in the group or half a year to integrate those who work in the inn is trivial.”
“If you need more money, just tell .”
“The money I gave you last ti is enough.”
“We have 100,000 soldiers this ti, isn’t that not enough?”
“The money I brought from Yangju is still working out, so if there is a shortage, I will talk about it then.”
“All right. Then tell then.”
“yes. Oh, and beon-ah, a doctor attached to the brother-in-law. Didn’t you say you were a little suspicious the other day? It’s been quite a while and there’s no news yet. Is there any special reason?”
At Lee Dang-ji’s question, Eul-ji put on a slightly perplexed expression.
“Is the touch good? When the lower ones start to look, they no longer do anything suspicious.”
“is it so? It could be really nimble, or it could be soone quite skilled helping you.”
“To avoid my eyes, you will need at least one sober drink. Where else would you find such a person?”
“At that level, only Sama Sangdan Lord cos to mind in my mind. But the sama upper lord can’t do that. If Master wants it, he’s the one who’ll take out the liver.”
“Isn’t it? It seems to have a lot of montum.”
“But even so, wouldn’t it be dangerous if we continued to earn money and let him stay by the brother-in-law?”
“It is too much to kick out now just because he once did sothing suspicious. Moreover, it is difficult to rush forward because the relationship with Congressman Buna has beco so hot these days.”
“Shall I try throwing a bait?”
“Bait? Do you really need to do that?”
“If it was really a three-jak, how much would the death penalty hurt later? If that’s the case, I’d rather throw a bait and find out if it’s Sejak or not, and if it’s Sejak, we should get rid of it right now.”
“Hmm, if the congressman gives her a lot of affection, the wounds will be bigger in the future.”
“I will throw the bait once, so please take good care of the lord.”
“All right.”
Lee Dang-ji returned to Uicheong after the conversation with Eul-ji.

“I really don’t understand.”
Bun-ah tilted her head and muttered to herself, and the dical girl Yun-ju approached and pricked her ears.
“Brother, what do you not understand?”
Ever since she got close to Bun-ah, she was using the title of older brother instead of Congressman Byrne in private places where the two of them were together.
“The war is just over, but Master told the local priest to look at the dynamics of the Ikju side.”
“Are you ripe? Are you sure you want to fight Ik-joo?”
“I don’t know if he wants to fight or if he raised soldiers in Ikju, but looking at Master these days, he seems to be focusing too much on war while ignoring his true self as a doctor. I’m a little sorry.”
“Master has beco a feudal lord who rules over a large land, but my brother doesn’t like that? If you’re like , you’re so happy that you might even dance.”
“What do you like to dance for?”
“Wouldn’t Master give his disciple, brother, a high-ranking official in the future?”
“Is that sothing to dance to? Don’t you think that countless people die every day in war?”
“A lot of people are dying, and everyone is sad. However, if my brother’s teacher doesn’t prepare for war, the allies, not the enemies, will die. And my brother’s family living in Yeju will also have to live in refuge. Rather than that, it is better to win the war by finding out in advance and preparing like now.”
“Whoa~. You’re right, but… It’s a pity that Master seems to be losing his old self.”
“Eosa Daebu-nim always lives at Uicheong after his busy work. It hasn’t been long since I’ve seen Eosa Daebu, but he seems to have the sa heart for patients.”
“It’s because it hasn’t been long since you saw it. Master has changed a lot from before.”
“is it so. Still, people like Eosa Daebu are rare in the world.”
“It doesn’t.”
“By the way, if you raise an army in Ikju, I’m very worried.”
“why? Even if Ikjusa raises an army, the target is the imperial palace, so I won’t fight Master.”
“The most convenient and quickest way for the soldiers of Yizhou to go to the imperial palace of Yuzhou is to take a boat from Hefei or Shuchun Fortress and head north. If you know even a little bit of strategy, you will definitely try to take over the land of Eosa Daebu.”
“is it? Well, the other day, Zhuge’s military also said that Hefei and Shuchun were strategic military bases. But how do you know that?”
When Buna tilted her head, Yunju’s face stiffened slightly.
“yes? I picked it up while treating rice soldiers.”
“okay. Well, the soldiers say a lot of things.”
Bun-ah was puzzled for a mont, but soon after the water boiled, he started boiling it with bloody saliva and a knife.
Yun-ju went outside, saying that there was sothing more busy than Bun-ah.
