Episode 145. Broadcasting (1)

Was Bangtong in Gangneungseong? And as an official?

Now that I think about it, I remember the remark that Sim Woo made in passing.

‘There is a useful manager…. Was that referring to the broadcasting station?’

When I stared at Simwoo with a slight question, he nodded and answered.

“The manager I was talking about is a temple official. He is currently in charge of document management at Gangneungseong Fortress.

“I was just waiting for the right time to arrange a meeting… and now this topic has come up.”

“I see. If you can rate him so highly, he must be quite talented. When you have time, bring him over. I need to see what kind of person he is.”

In fact, there was no need to delay like this. Bangtong was one of the Bokryong Bongchu. He had to be hired unconditionally.

“Is there any possibility?”

The reason why Sim Woo and I discussed the broadcasting station so openly was simple.

This is a subtle hint to the Bangsanmin that they have no intention of letting them go.

As expected of a scholar who was considered a great scholar in Yangyang, Bang San-min spoke with a stiff smile, as if he was very perceptive.

“If Brother Sa-won wants to work in Gangneung, who can stop him? I just came here to hear about Brother Sa-won’s well-being, so don’t worry too much about it. More importantly, how is my brother doing?”

I had no way of knowing about him since I only found out today that Bangtong was in Gangneungseong.

I looked at Simwoo, and Simwoo opened his mouth.

“…Honestly, I can’t say that the employee’s work attitude is diligent. However, the keen insight and strange judgment that he sometimes shows are something that no criminal can dare to follow. That’s why I highly value the employee.”

I smiled bitterly at the comment that Bangtong was insincere.

‘I am reminded of the story of the past when Liu Bei failed to recruit Pang Tong in time…’

Perhaps Bangtong was also dawdling around like this at the time.

While laughing heartily at the warlords who did not recognize his talent.

I would have done the same thing if it were me. It was like giving a ridiculously low-level position to a talented person.

Bang San-min also seemed to have known that would happen, and answered with a small sigh.

“…I feel reassured that you are truly like a temple elder brother. I am glad that you are doing well.”

I met Bang Sanmin’s eyes and opened my mouth.

“Let’s stop talking about the temple here. I’ll arrange a time for us to meet separately later.

So, what is the real reason why the young genius of Bangga appeared in the enemy camp in Gangneung?”

Then, Bang San-min’s eyes met mine and his pupils shook slightly before he spoke.

“Your Majesty, Yoo Hyung-joo, would like to officially conclude a ceasefire.”

I couldn’t help but laugh at the word “ceasefire.”

As expected, it’s a typical choice.

In the past, if it were the ambitious Liu Biao who had taken over Xingzhou at that time, the moment his front yard was taken away, he would have marched forward, saying that he would do anything to reclaim it.

But now, Liu Biao had aged greatly and was only thinking about compromising.

‘I’m definitely getting old… I’m sure I won’t be able to last long.’

As for me, if only I had the conditions to fight, I would have advanced all the way to Yangyangseong.

The idea of ​​suppressing the northern part of Nanyang-gun from Wanseong and advancing from the southern part of Namgun and Gangneungseong would surely be a huge burden for Liu Biao.

But seeing how Jianye was doing, the battle was over. Sun Ce would gladly accept Liu Biao’s surrender declaration.

In other words, this was a matter where the conclusion had already been decided.

‘Rather, the moment I let go of the strongman, I am attacked by Geonup.’

But I, feeling a bit irritated for no reason, smiled and asked back.

“Why should our army call a ceasefire? If we keep pressuring them like this, Yangyang will soon fall into our army’s hands.”

Then, Bang San-min, who had been smiling the whole time, spoke with a sharp look in his eyes.

“…Even if you are the great Sun Sin-an, you will not be able to easily take over the best fortress in Hyungju, Yangban.

Moreover, throughout the entire Hyungbuk region, Yu Hyungju’s hand is in contact. In other words, the public sentiment of Hyungbuk follows Yu Hyungju.

“If you continue to pressure Yoo Hyung-ju, who recommended a ceasefire, it will take a long time to win over the hearts of the people of Hyungbuk.”

I was dumbfounded by Bang San-min’s boldness.

This is truly a case of a match made in heaven.

It was clearly Liu Biao who provoked Jianye by performing the ritual and the emperor, but Jianye was turned into the bad guy. But the important thing is not that truth.

The fact that the hearts of the people of Xingbei were still directed toward Liu Biao was important.

“Ha, the stray dogs were definitely provided by Hyungju. But now you’re calling a ceasefire? Do you think that’s possible?”

Bang San-min spoke quietly with calm eyes.

“Yu Hyung-ju said that the offering to heaven was a great misunderstanding and that he had absolutely no intention of committing treason.

However, he said that he felt responsible for the spread of such rumors and that he would step down from his official position. The details are written in the letter here, so please check it out.”

After finishing speaking, Bang San-min handed me a letter.

The contents of the letter were full of various empty words. However, if you take away all of that empty formality… .

It was a cowardly letter asking him to give up his important official positions and various privileges, so let’s stop here.

When I saw this, I burst out laughing.

In the first place, is it possible for a living person to receive so many privileges and high positions?

‘Han Sil, who gave this ridiculous privilege, and Yoo Pyo, who took advantage of it… It’s all the same.’

The more I read the letter, the more my heart was filled with conviction. It would be better for this kind of Hansil to fail.

At a time when I was filled with boiling anger and unexpressible hatred.

For some reason, Bang San-min spoke with a stiff face.

“…Son Ga’s enemy is not only Hyungbuk. The more powerful Jo Sa-gong and Yuan Gi-ju still remain in the Central Plains.

“I heard that General Cho is preparing to invade Giju again… You can’t just leave him alone, can you?”

He was trying to persuade me in such a long and arduous manner, making various excuses. It seemed that Bang San-min was not listening to the words of the people in vain.

‘It’s not like we can keep Cao Cao in check. If we leave things like this alone… Cao Cao will definitely unify the Central Plains.’

Of course, if Cao Cao dies, the foundation of Cao Cao’s power will be shaken to its core, but since we’re going down this path anyway, wouldn’t it be better to take it a little easier?

Thinking like that, I started to rack my brain.

If we couldn’t pour our forces into Hyungbuk, then we had to prioritize reorganizing Hyungnam.

‘I have to stabilize the 4th Army of Hyungnam instead of the pheasant. I have to take care of the Muling area at the same time.’

Mureungman. They are an immigrant people living in the Mureung region. They can be thought of as an immigrant people similar to the Sanwol people who lived in Danyang-gun.

If you consider that Mureung County, like Danyang County, is a densely mountainous area, Mureung Bay and the Sanwol tribe were similar in many ways.

‘I guess I’ll have to force them to become civilized like the Sanwol tribe.’

Perhaps if they could pressure Muling Bay with the strategy of subduing the Sanwol Tribe, it would be easy to take care of Muling Bay.

I smiled brightly and said, keeping the following in mind.

“You must have sent an envoy to Geonup as well, right?”

“you’re right.”

“First of all, I understand what Yoo Hyung-ju wants. But I am bound to Geon-eop. I have no choice but to follow Geon-eop’s orders. Do you understand what I mean?”

Then Bang San-min said with a cheerful smile.

“I would really appreciate it if you could do that, Son Shin-an!”

The words and actions of Bang San-min, who was subtly confident, I could roughly figure out from there.

‘I guess these Hyungju guys… They seem to have guessed the relationship between me and Sun Ce.’

I clearly left the decision up to Sun Ce.

But how can the people of Bangsan laugh and consider the ceasefire as a certainty?

From my perspective, I couldn’t help but have doubts from here.

‘… These guys are not to be underestimated.’

But even if they are people who can read human relationships like a ghost… .

Human lifespan is uncertain.

I said, gently raising one corner of my mouth.

“Instead, let’s set a time limit for the ceasefire. For example, while Yu Hyung-ju is alive, we shouldn’t attack Yangyang.

“Wouldn’t it be enough for Yoo Hyung-joo to feel at ease?”

Then, Bang Sanmin’s eyes trembled like a pendulum in confusion.

“Yes? The deadline for the ceasefire, you say?”

“Yeah, I mean the deadline. I’m not saying I’m talking nonsense, right?”

“Hahaha…. If you wish, of course we should add that clause!”

Well, they probably know that Yu Biao’s health is poor, but they don’t know exactly when he will die. That’s probably why they accepted my claim.

But that is a big mistake.

‘Do you know when Liu Biao will die? I know.’

Next year, the image of our forces attacking Yangyangseong was clear.

***

August 207.

Construction of Yangju Danyang-hyeon.

Sun Ce read the letter sent by Liu Biao. He burst into laughter like a tyrant who held the world at his feet.

“Hahahaha! Look at these guys! Yoo Kyung-seung, that petty and despicable author is asking to be spared in exchange for giving up his official position and privileges!”

The faces of Liu Biao’s envoys were flushed by Sun Ce’s shameless accusations. But they endured it.

There was no use arguing from the standpoint of wanting a ceasefire.

Sun Ce, who had been laughing at Liu Biao so heartily, turned his head sharply.

Sun Ce’s sharp eyes turned to the emperor. He spoke abruptly.

“Your Majesty, it is said that your uncle admits his own mistakes in this way.

Since I have decided to return the powers and various official posts that Your Majesty once granted me, how about waiting and seeing what happens in the future?

As you know, it is difficult to dismiss someone who is sitting in the position of Hanshil’s uncle right away.”

Then the emperor slowly avoided Sun Ce’s gaze and said.

“…What would I know? Just do as the General wishes.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

A sight so hideous that it was impossible to look at, with not even a shred of the emperor’s authority to be found.

It wasn’t the emperor sitting on the throne. It was just a living, breathing seal.

At least the managers in this place felt it keenly.

Meanwhile, Liu Biao’s officials were glancing back and forth between the emperor and Sun Ce with pale faces.

For those who were loyal to Hansil, this sight was an unfamiliar and strange sight.

But before they could say anything, Sun Ce lightly waved them away.

“Okay, then let’s stop the meeting here for today. The messengers, please stay at your quarters and then go back!”

In reality, the Emperor of Jianye was Sun Ce, although he did not sit on the throne.

This is an obvious fact.

But there was someone who was provoking Sun Ce like that.

Yisul, who had been observing the situation, shouted loudly.

“General! I would like to risk my life to offer you advice!”

Sun Ce furrowed his brows for a moment at Yi Shu’s shout. This was because he didn’t know what Yi Shu would say next.

“Hmm?”

Yisul swallowed hard.

This will be the biggest gamble of a lifetime in my art career.

‘… If I had known this would happen, I would have told you a little sooner. I was just wasting time and this is how it turned out! I’m a little anxious because I’m in mourning, but at least I’ll say something… .’

The old man, who was very angry, spoke loudly.

“Your Majesty has recently regained peace of mind and body, and your face is filled with energy.

Therefore, I believe it is right for Your Majesty to find a new concubine!”

At that moment, a cold silence fell over the entire city.

The expressions of the Emperor, Bokwan, and the other ministers were frozen stiff.

But Sun Ce didn’t pay any attention to such reactions.

At this moment, Sun Ce’s senses were completely focused on Yi Sul.

“A concubine?”

“Yes, that’s right! As far as I know, the General’s sister hasn’t found a partner yet, I know that! So….”

Even though Yisul had not finished speaking, Sun Ce accepted it and continued.

“The marriage of my sister and Your Majesty?”

“That’s right!”

“Hoo….”

Sun Ce’s confusion only lasted for a moment.

The place where he could not bear to see this unfilial sight distorted his expression and shouted loudly.

“Oh my! The general’s funeral has not even ended yet, what kind of nonsense are you talking about! You, Do-wi, are you trying to advise the general to be disloyal?”

Bozul also added a word of complaint.

“Doesn’t this fool know that holding a wedding during mourning is an outrageous and immoral act that goes against etiquette?”

Yisul, who was cowering in the face of the strong opposition of his ministers, spoke cautiously.

“I’m sorry, General. The Major General didn’t pay attention to that. Please forgive me.”

But Sun Ce, already lost in his delusions, answered blankly.

“…Please be careful next time.”

For a split second, Sun Ce blamed himself.

Why didn’t I come up with this great idea? On the contrary, right now, of all times, I felt like I was resenting my deceased mother.

For a moment, Sun Ce recalled the events of the past as he was overcome with such complicated emotions.

Just a few decades ago, didn’t Ha Jin of the Hanmihan clan push his younger sister out of the position of empress and become the Hanamyun, and then a general?

then.

What if he, the greatest of the Geonye clans and a great general, were to force his younger sister into the position of a concubine?

General? Ambassador?

Compared to what he had just imagined, these positions were as insignificant and ridiculous as ants. He would not dare to contain himself in such positions.

‘Public.’

The second highest rank in the Han Dynasty, Gong (公).

If a new nation is founded within Hansil.

The moment he thought of this dazzling future, a refreshing smile appeared on Sun Ce’s lips.

‘If we get married as soon as the mourning is over… I…!’

Without even knowing that this series of events, which continued like a single stroke of a stroke, was actually someone’s trap.
