73 – There are too many thieves in the world (10)

Five hundred Jingju defenders.

And although Zhang Jie’s army lost more than half of its cavalry, its infantry strength still remained.

Jerk, jerk.

Chiang Kai-shek’s army moved forward again. Standing on the ice-cold ground, Emperor Zhang rode his horse forward.

“I’ll tell the soldiers over there. Just give us someone without parents and we’ll leave quietly.”

“What kind of idiot are you talking about? You’re pooping with your mouth.”

The man drove his horse forward.

His face was pale, as if he was about to run away at any moment.

The same goes for soldiers.

“hahahaha. Why? Are you embarrassed that your plan for conversion failed? You must be embarrassed that your plan to successfully defeat the enemy of the Overweight and Talisman turned into a piece of paper in an instant.”

“Shut up.”

“hehehe, are you worried? Because I think I will take away everything that belongs to you? Are you coming? I will make wine with your blood and place it on the altar of the dead, in remembrance of the sin of killing my comrades.”

“Crazy guy. How can you be so cruel? Are you really a human being like me?”

“Same person? You’re so arrogant!”

Emperor Zhang pounded his chest and shouted.

“I am a minister of the court! A person who has been given an official position by the emperor! In comparison, you are just a country bumpkin. How can you and I be considered the same human being?”

“I’m asking about your evil deeds!”

“Evil deeds? What evil deeds? Oh, plundering the people who live here in this land? hahahaha!”

Emperor Zhang burst into laughter.

“It’s supplies! I’m just taking items from houses that their owners have abandoned! They’re giving them to me for the greater good!”

“What was the purpose of stealing?”

“Loyalty to the Han Imperial Family!”

Emperor Zhang was nothing short of imposing.

“I saved the emperor countless times from Lee Gak and Guo Si, and now I will settle down with my own land and live for the royal family by paying taxes regularly. If there is anyone who stands in my way with such a cause, it is treason against the country!”

“He’s someone I can’t communicate with at all!”

“Conversation doesn’t work? Of course! How dare you talk like this to the Minister of the Imperial Court, to a true general!”

“You…”

The man seemed speechless.

“Are you saying it’s natural for you to exploit the people just because you’re a so-called high-ranking official?”

“Exploitation? The people work for the imperial family, and they have to pay taxes to survive. That is the basis of being the people of this country and living in this country.”

Emperor Zhang raised his spear and pointed it widely.

“So, what is the current era like? The people are busy filling their treasuries without paying the taxes they are supposed to pay, and the governors and local officials of each region tend to use taxes as they please as if they were emperors. So I punish them. “I want to take it down.”

“Who gave you the right to punish yourself however you want?”

“Of course it’s heaven!”

Emperor Zhang stretched his spear high into the sky.

The tip of the spear pointed to the sky, and a soldier next to Emperor Zhang raised a standard similar to a spear.

“I am a general of a country! I have a duty to set the imperial family straight by suppressing traitors!”

“A person who doesn’t pay taxes is a traitor?”

“of course!”

“What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about, taking more taxes than the law stipulates?”

The man’s voice gradually began to show anger.

“Since when did taxes just keep increasing like taffy? Is it the law of this country that, let alone filling the storehouse, they commandeer even a grain of rice and a rice bowl for tomorrow’s meal? Bring me a copy of the law. Until you see it with your own eyes. “I will not follow you. Are you really sure that you are a general appointed by the emperor in the first place? What general in the world kills the people and steals their wealth while calling them traitors and all!”

“hehehe, he doesn’t understand the language!”

“what…!!”

The man unconsciously grabbed the reins tightly. The soldiers of the Jingju defenders, including men, also grabbed spears.

“For someone like that to be Dong Zhuo’s subordinate, how much pain must have been felt for the people of Luoyang and Chang’an who suffered under Dong Zhuo! It is truly heartbreaking.”

“hehehehe, no matter how much I talk about it, nothing will change. I don’t want to deal with the country boy’s stupid behavior anymore. You will die here today.”

Boom, boom, boom!

“All troops, raise your shields! We won’t let them try their hand at it again!”

As soon as Chiang Kai-shek gave the order, the soldiers slowly began to move forward.

I tapped the stone bridge where I was stepping forward to check it as if I was crossing it, and raised my shield up to prepare for any arrows that might come flying at me.

“Archers forward!!”

As soon as the man’s instructions were given, soldiers with bows aimed their bows at Emperor Zhang’s army.

“Fire—!”

Pabababat.

The arrow flew in a parabola and struck Chiang Kai-shek’s army. Unfortunately, the arrows that fell into the middle of the snowy field were often blocked by the shield, and could not even pierce the iron armor worn by Emperor Zhang.

“Tsk, retreat! Step back and fire again!”

The man bit the army and shot an arrow.

Chiang Kai-shek’s army advanced very leisurely, as if laughing at Men and the Jingzhou defenders.

Even blind arrows could not harm anyone.

The arrowhead ended up getting stuck in the wooden shield, and the arrow that hit the leg bounced off the harder steel armor and got lodged between the eyes.

“We straighten up and fire again! Retreat!”

“Chase. But don’t run carelessly!”

The Jingju defenders began to be pushed back unilaterally. Chiang Kai-shek’s army was an army of men who didn’t fight and just ran away, which was just ridiculous.

“What I did in the rice fields was fun. What should I do now?”

“What can I do? What can I do?”

A hill appeared again. Emperor Chiang became anxious about the hill, which was like a riverbank.

Could it be that they have hidden soldiers behind them again?

“I will kill you here.”

Wow!!!

A huge roar began to ring out. Jangje’s heart sank for a moment as if he had fallen into a trap, but he couldn’t help but snort when he saw the people who appeared on the other side of the hill.

From noble mtl dot com

“hahahahaha! This time, they’re not soldiers at all, but peasants? How funny! They’re blocking the path of a general of a country! They’re not just wearing yellow bandanas, there’s no separate Yellow Turban enemy!”

Emperor Chiang shouted at the numerous peasants who appeared on the hill.

“They are thieves! We will eliminate the thieves and return with the wealth they stole!”

“Crazy guy.”

The man laughed at Jiang Ze.

Then he took out the red flag again from his pocket.

“Put it on.”

Archers received new arrows from farmers. Farmers had arrows with arrowheads wrapped in white cloth –

Hwareuk.

set it on fire

Emperor Zhang was taken aback for a moment, but it was only a moment.

“hahahaha, I didn’t know there was a crazy person trying to shoot fire arrows in the winter.”

“The results will tell whether I am crazy or not. Everyone, get ready!! Open fire!!”

The fiery arrow fell in a parabolic curve.

No matter how cold-blooded a Korean soldier was, he could not maintain his composure when the flames fell.

“Collect shields!”

So, just make sure you don’t take damage from the flames.

“Lift it above your head!”

At Emperor Zhang’s shout, the soldiers huddled together with their shields raised.

As some of the fire arrows flew, the fire went out and they only hit the ground. Some fire arrows were even unable to hit and ended up rolling on the ground and buried in the snow.

“hahahahaha, this is the end…Holy sh*t.”

Whirring.

Kaang, kaang.

Something blunt started flying above the shield. Rocks of different sizes hit the shield, and Emperor Zhang frowned.

“You’re bothering me. It won’t work. Advance slowly-“

“I didn’t tell you that.”

The corner of the man’s mouth twitched for a moment.

“I think your parents would be devastated if they saw you living like this, right?”

“…You should say something like that now-”

Blah blah blah.

“…what?”

“Wow, I thought I was going to die from running away. I fully understand what it means to be on thin ice.”

Blah blah, blah blah.

“Empathize.”

Pajijijik.

“That’s how your parents feel.”

It’s a joke!

The floor disappeared.

And then, it began to split into dozens of branches.

* * *

Sow straw over the river.

And sprinkle water on it.

As if the winter weather was helping us, it covered the straw bales with snow and created a white curtain to hide the reality.

A long artificial road stretched over the river.

The river was frozen so hard that even five hundred days passed by.

…Even when thousands of Emperor Zhang’s troops walked along the river, the water surface did not break under the weight.

So we decided to break it ourselves.

They threw fiery arrows, threw stones, and used every means possible to shock the frozen surface.

“Ugh, ugh!!”

“It breaks! Avoid it!!”

Chiang Kai-shek’s soldiers screamed and tried to escape from the ice. Emperor Jiang was embarrassed and tried to lead his soldiers, but one by one, they started to step carelessly and fall into the water.

Splash, splash!

There will be no time to save him.

The ice sheet will melt faster than you think.

Hwareuk.

“I fed the straw with oil.”

A small spark from a blind fire arrow reached the snow-covered straw and succeeded in meeting the oil.

The snow on the straw was cleared away by us and Chiang Kai-shek’s army as they stepped on it, making it very easy to start a fire.

“It’s burning brightly. Just like your parents.”

Should I hear from Jangje?

I do not know.

But I really hope you listen to it.

“Didn’t your parents teach you not to take what belongs to others?”

A person who tries to take someone else’s life.

You have to think that your life could be taken away.

“aaah!!”

Emperor Jang’s soldiers began running on the ice.

Even as they scattered in all directions, they were running towards where we were.

“You bastard! I will definitely kill you!”

A group of emperors on horseback.

And then, one by one, thousands of soldiers run for their lives, leaving behind the crumbling sheets of ice.

“……As expected, it was difficult to bury everyone.”

I got off the horse.

Then he picked up the bamboo spear that was stuffed next to the horse.

“Damn it! I’m sorry! I tried to kill them all by just rolling their heads!”

If everything went according to plan, everyone should have fallen into the water here.

However, Emperor Chiang and other soldiers were running from the front to kill us even though half of the troops were in the water.

Lee Cheon, an elite soldier wearing iron armor.

The best soldiers of the old Dongtak army who have lights in their eyes and are trying to kill us.

In comparison, we had five hundred light infantry and two thousand peasants with bamboo spears.

Even countries that are not familiar with the art of war can learn it.

The militia can never defeat the regular army.

Nevertheless.

After this. We have a family.

“Everyone, prepare to die-”

“You have to be prepared to kill.”

Moment.

“It looks like we arrived just in time.”

With a voice I heard for the first time.

“Hey, bro. Why are you so scared?”

Right behind me, I heard the sound of bells.
