652. No matter how many talented people there are, they are not enough.
Zhou Yu said nothing for a while due to the unexpected situation. Then, she belatedly came to her senses and asked Little with an expression of disbelief.
“… … Are you saying I am the leader of the naval forces? “You probably didn’t hear it wrong, right?”
In response to Zhou Yu’s question, instead of answering, he held out a hand sign engraved with the words, “Sugun Dodog.” Zhou Yu accepted it, checked the words written on the handshake, and chuckled.
“The word su (守) is written in front of the official title. Are you planning to leave me in charge of the naval forces temporarily, rather than officially?”
“I haven’t shown anything, so wouldn’t it be a good idea to appoint him to the position of governor of the naval forces right away? There will be a lot of glare from those around you, and more than anything, you won’t be proud of yourself, so it’s obvious that you’ll reject it.”
“Then what you’re saying is that I should do my best and erase the first letter.”
“You’re not trying to say that you’re not confident, are you?”
“No way… … But I don’t know why me. The only experience I have is working in the military department. “If that’s the case, there are people in the military department, so it’s a bit surprising that they would entrust such an important responsibility to me, who is the youngest.”
The little boy smiled at Zhou Yu’s words and opened his mouth.
“First of all, there is one big problem.”
“problem?”
“The three people in the military department are all bad at naval forces. Wonho is from Giju and Munhwa is from Yangju. Jagyo, Ikju is also your hometown.”
“… … That’s definitely true after hearing it. “My hometown, Yeogang, has the Yangtze River just a stone’s throw away and is surrounded by lakes and rivers on all sides, so it’s natural to see boats there.”
“When the Yangju army invaded Gwangneung, you were the one who suggested fire. If it weren’t for that, we wouldn’t have been able to defeat Gangdong so quickly. “I would have wasted time dealing with the enemy who came to Gwangneung and suffered hardships.”
“hmm. I know what you mean. But that alone doesn’t make much sense. Domineering the naval forces. He commands various generals in the naval army to fight against the enemy. “Wouldn’t it be in line with this to be done by a general, not by a counselor who plots things?”
After saying that, Zhou Yu slowly turned his head and looked at Zhang Song. Jang Song said with an awkward expression when Zhou Yu looked at him.
“Why are you suddenly looking at me? “After hearing this, I advised the general that it was still too early.”
Jang Song said that and pulled his body backwards, as if he didn’t want to be involved anymore. As soon as Jang-song stepped away, he picked up the tea cup, took a sip of her tea, and opened her mouth.
“Right now, you are the only person in the General Department who can handle this matter. “I thought of you as the only person who could come up with a grand plan to unite the naval forces scattered across the six military kingdoms and prepare them for battle at any time.”
Zhou Yu tilted his head and asked with a worried face, as if he didn’t like the compliment.
“Thank you for your words, but are you really going to entrust me with the control of the naval forces for that reason? What if I do something as disgraceful as Jo Gwal, a general from the old Zhao Dynasty who destroyed 700,000 troops in one go? “It’s nothing compared to 700,000, but I understand there are tens of thousands of troops in the naval force.”
“You wouldn’t make such a crude mistake. “If there is something lacking, you can fill it in from now on.”
“Huh. This is ridiculous. “I hear this too, but I don’t know how absurd it must be for those who will be commanding under me.”
“So you don’t want to do it?”
Zhou Yu snorted in response to the small question and said as he held the sword of the naval commander in his hand tightly.
“No way. I am also a man with an ambition to succeed. When given an opportunity like this, it would be out of the question to turn it down. good! Leave it to me. “I will gather the naval forces of the six kingdoms as soon as possible and prepare them to help you at any time.”
“As expected, my eyes were not wrong. “You will do well.”
Even though it was a very burdensome position for the little one, he smiled brightly and was happy when he accepted it with confidence.
“I am saying that you have accepted, but I think we will need a separate place to command the naval forces of the six military kingdoms in the future, so I have been looking for a suitable place.”
After saying that, Jang Song took out a map from his pocket, placed it on the table, and pointed somewhere. Then Zhou Yu looked at the spot Jang Song had pointed with interest and nodded.
“It’s Malung tomb in Danyang-gun. It is between Xuzhou and Yangzhou, and you can travel quickly by relying on the Yangtze River. Moreover, it is also a suitable place to keep the general in check right in front of us. The problem is that there must be a large water base where the navy can stay… … .”
Zhou Yu, who had said that far, looked down and when Jang Song looked at him quietly, his face was slightly distorted and he continued speaking.
“Do I really have to do that too?”
“Then who will do it? “The general made a big decision and handed over all authority over the naval forces to you, so you should take care of that yourself.”
Hearing Jang Song’s words, Zhou Yu looked worried as if he was already burdened by the enormous amount of work he had to do in the future.
“This is not something that can be resolved in a day or two.”
“Surely we don’t know that? You just have to do it step by step. “If you need help, let me know anytime.”
As he encouraged Ju Yu, Yang Su, who was quietly listening next to him, intervened.
“Now that Gong Geun has become the governor of the navy, all the generals belonging to the navy will also move there.”
“If you live a long life… … “They must be Jang Heum and Ju Tae, who are in charge of the church.”
“yes. There will also be generals named Neungjo and Dongseup.”
Zhou Yu said with a slightly nervous look on his face when he heard that four generals were coming under him.
“They are all formidable, so it’s a burden.”
“… … “Sorry, but there’s one more general.”
“huh? “But who?”
In response to Joo-yu’s question, he mentioned the name of a general who had been wondering where to put it until the very end.
“Goodbye.”
“Hello? Are you going to send him to the navy too?”
Zhou Yu remembered Gamnyeong, whom he had seen in Yangju, and soon frowned.
Although I only encountered Gamnyeong a few times, it was worth it because I already knew how bad Gamnyeong’s personality was.
“I don’t know anything else, but my skills are certain. If handled properly, it will become a dagger that can stab the enemy at any time.”
When the little girl spoke so kindly, Zhou Yu responded with a smile.
“Kkkkkk. Just be honest? “It’s a pain to deal with, so I’ll leave it to me.”
“Well, it’s not wrong. However, the commander of the naval forces is one who commands several generals. “Shouldn’t he be able to properly handle the generals given to him so that he can be a proud commander of the navy in front of anyone?”
“I don’t have anything to say since you only talk about the facts. “There will be a lot of hardship ahead.”
Zhou Yu raised his hand and touched his left temple, as if thinking about what to do next was giving him headaches, and suddenly he remembered something.
“ah! yes. “I forgot about that.”
“huh? “What do you mean you’re forgetting?”
In response to the small question, Zhou Yu gestured to the man standing quietly outside the pavilion. As the little man entered the pavilion, he tilted his head and asked.
“I think he followed you as your escort. Why did he suddenly call you?”
“That’s not it, he wanted to meet you, so he brought you with him when he came from Yeogang.”
“Are you really trying to ask me for a government position? “To be honest, I don’t really like that.”
Zhou Yu shook his head at his words.
“No. Do you think I brought him here for such a trivial reason? “It’s not a request, it’s because he said he wants to work for you using his talents.”
When Zhou Yu said that, the man hesitated and greeted the boy.
“nice to see you. General Yongyang. My name is Jinmu (陳武), and I am from Yeogang-gun, the same region as Joo Gong-geun. “His name is Ja-yeol (子烈).”
“… … Jinmu?”
The small boy lost his sour expression at the familiar name and quietly looked at Jinmu.
“By any chance, what is your age?”
And when I asked a question because my face looked a little young for some reason, Jinmu lowered his head and answered.
“I’m eighteen this year.”
“No, he’s that big and he’s eighteen? “It looks like it’s about 8 feet tall?”
In response to Jang Song’s question, Jinmu said with a puzzled look on his face.
“I’m a little tall. It’s 7 cheok and 7 villages. “Ever since I was young, I was always bigger than my peers, so I started attending ceremonies early.”
At 7 feet and 7 feet, he was 177 cm tall.
As he became increasingly convinced that Jinmu was the same person he knew, Jinmu, who was a famous general under Sun Quan, he called Chunsam, who was dozing behind the pavilion.
“Chunsam.”
“yes. “Did you call me?”
As Chun-sam approached, wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth, he whispered something.
Then Chunsam quickly ran off somewhere and soon came back holding a heavy bag in both hands and handed it to Jeok.
“General. “What is that?”
When Jang-song asked with a curious face, he held out his pocket in front of Jin-mu and said,
“I will give you the position of Daesol (隊率).”
“hmm? Daesol? “You’re giving a hundred soldiers to someone who isn’t even 20 years old?”
Zhou Yu, who was listening from the side, asked with a surprised face when he heard that Jinmu would be given a high government position.
However, Little didn’t respond and just handed the bag to Jinmu.
“Hey, general. “What is this?”
When Jinmu suddenly took the bag and asked, he smiled and said.
“It contains a bottle of gold. “Take it back to your hometown and recruit 100 soldiers to follow you.”
“Are you really giving me the position of leader?”
Jinmu asked with an expression of disbelief at the small talk. However, he seemed to have no intention of retracting his decision, so he just nodded without saying a word.
“I can’t believe you think so highly of me. thank you so much. General. “I will definitely live up to the general’s expectations.”
Jinmu packed the pouch containing the gold bottle in his bosom, spoke to Yeok with a serious face, then immediately turned around and ran towards his hometown, Yeogang.
When Jinmu disappeared like that, he looked at Zhou Yu and said.
“When he comes back, take him under your wing and raise him. “I think he will be a good general.”
“… … You’re giving me another headache. Well, since you say that, I guess I’ll just keep an eye on it.”
Little smiled when he saw Zhou Yu complaining and thought about Jinmu who had just disappeared.
‘Feel so good. I can’t believe talented people come to me like this. If that person is the Jinmu I know, he may not be a huge scale, but he is at least a semi-scale. If you put him in the military, he will do his part. Well, he’s still young, so we’ll have to wait and see for a while.’
After organizing his thoughts about Jinmu, he looked back at Yang Su and asked.
“Deokjo. “What is my schedule after this?”
In response to Yeok’s question, Yang Soo took out a wad of paper he was carrying next to him and checked Yeok’s next schedule.
“hmm. Next, I have to go to Haeseo County to pay my respects to the funeral of Mr. Seo-gu, the former Prime Minister of the East Sea Kingdom.”
At Yang Su’s words, the hail had now stopped, but he looked up at the still gloomy sky and muttered to himself.
“ah. Has it already happened? A loyalist who was really supposed to be working hard for the country has passed away again. “This is all because of JoJo.”
As the little girl muttered like that and walked out of the pavilion, Juyu got up late and asked.
“Look. sleep. “I understand that you will soon go to rescue the captured general. Do you have time to pay your respects leisurely?”
“If that’s all it takes, I don’t have to go there, because there’s a place I can stop by again after I go there.”
“A place to stop by again?”
“okay. “While I moved up to Cheongju, there are still talented people in Gwangneung that I can trust and entrust to Gwangneung.”
When Zhou Yu heard that, he spoke with a curious face.
“There is such a person? “When you say that, you must be a great person.”
When the younger Zhou Yu showed interest, he responded with a sour face.
“Well, there is someone like that. “Someone who has been consistently trying to bring me gifts for several years, but has repeatedly refused.”
