Chapter four
Three days later, Guizhou.
The morning of the Murim people is early..
I wake up early at a time that is neither night nor morning to have breakfast before dawn..
sabaksabak.
Every time the guard samurai walked, the snow on the ground deepened..
The warrior who stayed up all night on guard opened his mouth wide and yawned, while his fellow warrior dozed off..
“Lee, Lee, get up, this baby!”
Wow!
Just before losing consciousness, a fellow warrior was hit in the back of the head and tried to get up and swear..
“You bastard!
If you're going to wake them up, wake them up gently. Why hit someone's head??”
He is a warrior belonging to Sado Heaven..
Among the Safa people, there is no one who is so gentle as to not get angry when hit on the head..
I was already so irritated that I couldn't sleep properly..
“front! Before!”
“What's in front? Even if it is a woman of the utmost beauty... … Heo Eok!”
The warrior unconsciously raised his head and opened his eyes..
It was because at the end of the line of sight, a large army appeared on the horizon..
Among them, the one that caught my eye was a tall warrior armed with black armor and carrying a spear on his shoulder..
The warrior shouted at the top of his voice, recalling the personal details sent down from above..
Yogwang and Daegun appear at the forefront!
Union of Political Affairs vs. Amcheonhoe.
The curtain of the first confrontation was rising..
The upper echelons of the Murim League anticipated a fierce battle in Gwiju and dispatched a separate unit comprised of masters including Ju Seo-cheon..
However, since we didn't know when Gwiju would explode, we decided to leave Juseoman, who was quick, and head to Gwiju..
Light attack is also light attack, but since he possessed almost constant internal attack, there was bound to be a difference in speed and endurance..
At the time when the reconciliation between the government and the government continued, a detachment dispatched from the Murim League was passing near Dongdong Lake in the Yangtze River basin in Honam, northeast of Gwiju..
It is the second largest freshwater lake in the central plains and is famous for its beautiful scenery, but it is not a leisurely sightseeing sight..
It was faster to take a boat on the Yangtze River than to ride a horse from Anhui..
I planned to get off at the port at the southern end of Dongdong Lake and transfer to horses or use light aircraft to go to Gwiju in the southwest..
But it wasn't as simple as I thought.
The current of the Yangtze River was also a current, but it was due to the swarm of enemies blocking the front of the detachment..
“Do you know who we are??”
Dan Lihua smiled, gently raising the bamboo clip on his head..
Unlike the mouth, the eyes were not smiling at all..
Know.
“Pageumbong, or should I call it something different now that I’m 30? Isolation.”
Most of the Nokrim Guchae, which are half of the Jeokrim 18-chae, are concentrated in Chongqing..
On the other hand, in the case of Surinjiuchae, he was active not only in Chongqing but also throughout the entire region, to be more precise, along the Yangtze River area..
Watercolors are also spread evenly throughout the area..
The area around Dongjeongho Lake in Honam also had Surimguchae..
It was a medium-sized water cave called Donghochae (洞湖塞)..
“Isn't the reason you haven't found a man of this kind in your 30s yet to be in the arms of Dongho Chaeju and Yoo Tak??”
Yu Tak smiled sinisterly..
The bulging muscles, the messy beard that grew randomly, and the ugly face were the very essence of a thief..
Dan Li-hwa responded to Yu Tak's teasing with a nonchalant expression..
“No, it's because I don't have any good men..
Especially men like you who have loud voices and bulging muscles, all of whom have lower legs as big as fingernails..”
“……”
Beautiful woman, that was a word that was difficult to come from someone who was a late member of a political faction..
The detachment dispatched by the Murim Alliance also looked as if they were at a loss for words and were dumbfounded..
“I'm even more embarrassed……”
Tang Hye bent her eyebrows and muttered quietly..
“……”
The plum blossom swordsman of the volcano, Nak So-wol, only focused on the enemy in front of him with a slightly red face..
“This bitch……”
Yu Tak opened his eyes and trembled..
Dan Li-hwa laughed at Yu Tak's reaction as if it was amusing..
“Oh my, I was just kidding, but it looks like it really was because you can't say anything..
are you okay. Small is no problem as long as you have the skills..
Ah, but looking at them, it looks like their technique isn't that great... … Why don't you impregnate the intestinal tract under your stomach because it's like this??”
“I'll kill you!”
Purple veins popped out on Yu Tak’s skin..
‘Joe, let's be quiet..’
‘If you laugh you'll die.’
Donghochae's enemies bit their lips..
The thieves are all rough and shitty..
If you have a docile personality, you will look ridiculous and die quickly..
If you don't want your position to be overtaken, you have to have the right personality too..
In other words, it meant that it was the most damn correct..
It was clear that if I laughed here, after this incident, I would be beaten to the brink of death or thrown into fish food..
“Hit it!”
Enemies rushed at the shout of Yu Tak..
‘They attacked us even though they knew about us..’
Dan Lihua thought as he swung his sword like water..
‘The Yangtze River is within their territory, so it is true that they found out our location, but they attacked a ship with several Murim Alliance leaders even though they clearly knew that there was a war going on.……’
She narrowed her eyes, lost in thought..
‘Jeoklim 18chae joined hands with Amcheonhoe.’
* * *
There were about 2,000 Safa people gathered in Guizhou and Yongan..
Three days ago, after the reconciliation agreement brokered by Ju Seo-cheon and Go Hoon, Safa people gathered from all over and the number increased further..
Due to the characteristics of Sapa, which has a small number of drummers but a large population, there were twice as many as the Murim League, which numbered about 1,500 people..
With this, the government-affairs union in Guizhou has over 4,500 members..
The number of forces was okay, but the flaw was that the force was a bit low..
After about three days, the political and political alliance reconciled, reorganized, and established a command system as an allied force..
The political faction is Joo Seo-cheon, Shin Do-gyun, and Maeng Cho-hyuk..
Sapa side lights.
It was a golden award..
“Appearance of Yogwang and Daegun!”
The conversation in the command barracks was interrupted by the messenger's urgent shout..
“You can also see the escaped Jong-ri-do-jeon.!”
About two days ago, Jongri Dojeon disappeared..
Ju Seo-cheon expected that Jong-ri Do-jeon was Cheon Chu-seong, so he was not that surprised..
“Uh, that dog ... … You're using me……”
Light grumbled and scratched his head..
The shock of betrayal was great because he had been comrade-in-arms with Zongli Dojeon for several years in Guizhou, and at the same time had established a relationship with them as sworn brothers..
“Let me show you the power of the Guizhou front..”
Shin Do-gyun left the command barracks with a confident smile..
“It is forbidden to be conceited, and do not look down on Amcheonhoe. Every single one of them is unusual.”
Joo Seocheon warned with his eyes fixed on the front..
Shin Do-gyun, who lives in danger day after day in Gwiju, has a slight tendency to have high pride typical of political factions, but he is not non-existent..
In fact, the power of Amcheonhoe has only been rumored and has never been launched on a large scale, so it is not really felt, so it has been emphasized several times over the past few days..
“Also, a person armed with armor from head to toe..
Beware of Yogwang.”
“Is it really all his armor that lasts forever??”
Maeng Cho-hyeok asked in disbelief..
Perpetual iron itself is a legendary metal..
The materials for a sword or dagger alone must cost an astronomical amount of money..
But I couldn't believe it when it wrapped around my whole body..
“yes.”
Actually, it's not accurate..
But I said that on purpose to raise awareness..
If we had brought Ganyaja, we would have been able to know properly, but since she was by the side of Zhuge Succession, there was no way to confirm..
“I would like to ask the Gwiju Branch Chief, or rather, the Gwiju Front Line Commander, to take overall command..”
“leave it to me.”
Shin Do-gyun shook his head up and down..
Maeng Cho-hyuk and Jo Myeong looked at Shin Do-gyun with envy..
He had a coveted eye for the position of commander of the Guizhou Battleship..
‘Oh, if you're good at this, isn't it something you can give to your successor??’
Shin Do-gyun did not like the commander of the Gwiju line very much..
The position of head of the front line was good, but it was a no-go in Guizhou, where I had been living for over ten years and wanted to leave as soon as possible..
‘If the political alliance lasts long and the first clash goes well, I'll roughly hand it over to Maeng Cho-hyuk or Jo Myeong..’
Shin Do-gyun moved forward with an evil(?) plan..
A wide plain stretched out in front of Ong'an..
As many as 4,500 warriors of Jeongsa were tightly packed and waited for the Amcheonhoe army beyond the horizon..
Even though the force was full of third-rate and second-rate people, with 4,500 people gathered, their spirit was not ordinary..
Above all, in the case of Sadocheon, his intention to kill was unusual as he intended to collect compensation by cutting off the head of the leader of the Amcheonhoe..
“Geumja, Geumja……”
“For the sake of peace, I will cut off the head of the leader of the Amcheonhoe..”
“Then give me the money..”
“Have you ever been hit with money??”
The exhilaration, murderous intent, and tension of a warrior in front of a battlefield were mixed together..
Joking to ease the tension sometimes made me laugh..
Although they looked frivolous on the outside, they were all alert and prepared for battle without letting go of their tension..
‘this sight……’
Being in the gap between Jeong Pa-in and Sa Pa-in, old memories came to mind..
‘really… … Really, it's been a while.’
It was an old memory, but an unforgettable memory..
After the end of the war that lasted for ten years, the government joined forces after going through many hardships with the emergence of Amcheonhoe..
I don't remember how many decades ago it was.
But then, just like today, we mingled with the political faction and the sad faction and waited for them..
“……come.”
It wasn't like anyone shouted.
However, it was not announced with the sound of a conch or a drum..
At some point, Amcheonhoe approached close by and Gwijugun's voice stopped speaking..
‘It's like a wave.’
The Amcheon Army that appeared at the front was a wave..
It was the wave itself, swallowing up the sand on the beach and taking it to the endless beach..
Although they did not wear masks for secret activities like before, they were still dressed in black uniforms, so it was a wave of darkness..
‘Yogwang……’
Among them, the one that stood out the most was the black iron armor covering the entire body and the fire spear in harmony with red and gold..
The momentum flowing from the body was also unusual..
‘Joo Seocheon……‘
Yo-gwang also recognized Joo Seo-cheon at a glance..
The leader of Amcheonhoe, there is no way he doesn’t know Geomsin..
Two men walk forward facing each other.
When about five ri (里) remained, both armies stopped and stood still as if they had made an agreement..
‘War… … This is it.’
Joo Seocheon closed his eyes in silence and was lost in thought..
In my previous life, I had never faced a big person like Yoo Guang..
Always looking at someone's back.
Instead of coming to the front, I stood in the middle and wondered if I would be able to survive the fierce battle ahead..
Before I knew it, I was at the forefront..
Became the back of 4,500 martial arts people.
I didn't bother to look back.
I could tell what expressions they were making..
Even without seeing it, I could feel it.
Memories of the war engraved in my brain came to mind..
“Whoop……”
I took a deep breath and then.
“……ha.”
I exhaled and opened my closed eyes..
“listen!”
don't look back.
don't even look to the side.
“The government has been fighting for something for a long time!”
I just looked ahead, at the enemy, and shouted..
“Starting with martial arts methods, differences in ideology!
Sometimes, we fought over interests, gain and loss, or favors and benefits.!”
Ju Seo-cheon's cry echoed in Gwiju land..
“We have been confronted in many ways: psychologically, physically, politically, economically, and militarily.!
One, at this moment! Conflicts were put aside and affairs became one.!
Why?!”
No one answered Geomshin’s question..
I was just waiting for the next words.
“It's because of those guys who boast about their success behind the scenes as if they were gods.!”
Amcheon-gun was also quiet..
“From now on!”
Everyone had a cold expression on their faces..
“Tell me how much it feels like shit!”
However, a storm of murderous intent raged..
“Those bastards who want something without doing anything, tell them how much of a thief they are.!”
Lifting the sword in my hand, I step forward with all my might..
“Heroes of government!
show the degree!
show me the apostle!
show good faith!
Show your respect!
show justice!
Show your gratitude!
For a friend, for a family, for a monk, for the death penalty, for a lover, even for an individual.!
Anything is fine! If you're here for something, show determination.!”
Kwaang!
“Let's go aaaaa!”
Jeongsa and Amcheon moved almost simultaneously..
“Oooooooh!”
As Geomshin, the most reliable member of the Sangcheon Sixth Place, stepped forward and launched himself, the Government and Government Association also ran behind him..
There is no fear.
Instead, there was only the will to fight..
The martial people who set foot on the land of Gwiju are people who all have their own circumstances, regardless of political or political status..
I risked my life and came to Guizhou because I had nowhere else to retreat to, or to quickly become successful..
That's how well their resolution was set..
Some of them looked nervous as they had just arrived in Guizhou, but they also moved their bodies assimilated to the fighting spirit of the allies around them..
coo coo coo coo coo coo coo!
the ground shakes.
The ground, where the snow had not yet melted, shook as if an earthquake had occurred..
It was a vibration created by the union of about 4,500 political parties and the army of Amcheon, which numbered 3,000..
The distance between the two armies quickly decreases..
The moment the five ri narrowed down to 1 ri in order, Yogwang stretched out his spear..
nettle liquid!
The body of the Hwacheomchang stretched and drew a Korean-Japanese symbol..
“Joo Seocheon!”
Yogwang's shout hit my eardrums and at the same time I felt heat on my skin..
It was a fire that spewed out from the firebox..
“Wow!”
The government and government allied forces that followed Ju Seo-cheon were frightened..
I couldn't help but be surprised as the spear stretched out like a female baton and even spewed out flames..
Above all, the heat was so great that my body automatically evacuated..
In contrast, Joo Seocheon did not stop..
Not caring about the heat, I ran straight ahead and jumped up off the ground..
Whirling!
It wasn't difficult to avoid the spear as it extended in a straight line..
Jumped high in the air, turned around and landed down.
However, what touched my feet was not the ground but the pole..
“It's impossible!”
Yogwang was not embarrassed even when Joo Seo-cheon came up on the window..
Climbing up the window is nothing more than a stunt..
Boom!
Strengthen the hand holding the spear and lift it vigorously..
The spear was bent like a taffy stick and rocked like a wave..
Although he had long exceeded the standard length for a long spear, Yogwang's spearmanship did not change..
‘Phew.’
As expected, he is not an ordinary military officer and a master of fire and police..
Even though the length had increased abnormally, I knew how to handle it well..
Skill level goes without saying.
He handles the long spear as freely and skillfully as if it were his own hand..
Joo Seo-cheon was unable to stick to the Hwacheom spear and was thrown away, then regained his balance and landed safely on the floor..
“Wow!”
The moment we landed, cheers erupted across the battlefield..
The two armies following the forefront clashed for the first time..
“Wow!!”
“Ouch!”
It was truly the beginning of a ‘war’..
Thousands of warriors became entangled in a bloody fight to take each other's lives..
In order to suffocate the enemy, he decapitated him, thrust a sword into his heart, cut off his legs, and shattered his internal organs..
When an ally right next to you is threatened by an enemy, you help by outwitting them from the side..
Behind him, another enemy stuck a spear in his back..
There was constant screaming around..
The martial arts fight is usually referred to as bimu..
Establish rules or achieve results through one-on-one competition.
But war is different.
The only rule was to kill the enemy.
In the past, in his previous life, Pa-in Jeong died because he could not adapt to this irregular war in which no order existed..
When he saw that he was willing to do anything to survive, he criticized him for being cowardly and died in embarrassment..
The good news among the misfortunes was that people from the Jeongpa faction who had eaten a lot of rice in Gwiju were less prone to this problem..
The way of thinking was not rigid, but rather relaxed..
Thanks to this, there were fewer cases of unexpected deaths..
Powwow!
The head exploded like pulp and blood splattered..
I was so scared that my bladder burst and a yellow stream flowed out..
Among them, there was even one who had a bowel movement, but no one cared..
The problem was the fishy smell of blood rather than the fishy smell..
“Wow!”
“die!”
“die!”
Cut, cut, break, block.
The martial arts that I had honed my whole life turned into a tool to kill others..
“It's a challenge!”
Gwiju Yeongeom!
Amcheon-gun had a difference in numbers compared to Guiju-gun, but its average military rank was higher..
Of course, there were many experts, and among them was a traitor who had been an ally until recently..
“Get lost!”
Jong-ri Do-jeon took out a soft sword wrapped like a belt and swung it..
Whirling!
A soft sword, as the name suggests, is a flexible sword..
The metal used as the material has strong elasticity, so it bends smoothly even though it is iron..
Even if you try to read the trajectory, the sword bends along the way, making it very difficult to deal with..
Jong- ri Do-jeon was a master at the peak, but thanks to this special weapon called the Yeongeom, he was able to deal with Cho-jeol-dae well..
“Wow!”
Every time Jongri Dojeon flicked his wrist, the sword curved like a bow and attacked with a strange movement..
The warriors of Jeongsa approached Jong-ri Do-jeon, but were wounded by the soft sword he was swinging and fell down with blood spraying out..
“Jong-ri challenge, you bastard.!”
Outside of Samjang, in the center of the government and affairs alliance, Jo Myeong saw Jong-ri Do-jeon and shouted in anger..
“I've been so good to you, how can you betray me?!”
“Isn't that obvious? It is not normal for Amcheonhoe to provide care..”
Jong-ri Do-jeon laughed bitterly while rubbing his left hand..
“I will especially inform my superiors, so why don't you also switch to the Dark Heaven Association at this time??”
“Damn!”
Light answered without the slightest hesitation..
“No matter how greedy I am, I don't want to join hands with a bastard who has been using me for a long time! Wow, wow.!”
“Ugh, your insides are still small. Come on, come on!.
I won't use my soft sword and will fight you with just my fists..”
Jong-ri Dojeon raised his left hand as if provoking him..
Light was enraged by the low-level provocation of the person he considered his sworn brother just a few days ago, but he did not step forward..
Since there are not many experts in Sado Heaven, there are few people who can be appointed as commanders of the front lines..
Joo Seo-cheon had asked Jo Myeong in advance to stay alive for a long time and coordinate the battlefield if possible..
“That bastard……!”
The light gritted its teeth as if it was going to pop out at any moment, but it didn't move even a single step..
“light! Ignore the provocation!”
To the right of the line, Maeng Chu-hyuk shouted from afar..
“Know!”
Lighting is not stupid either.
As a talented person who survived the whirlpool of conflict called Guizhou, he is also very intelligent..
If you get caught in that obvious provocation, Sadocheon's command system will be in shambles..
His role was to focus his energy on his eyes and voice during this melee and give orders..
Jongri Dojeon also knew this and deliberately provoked it..
Light swallowed his anger and deliberately looked away..
“ha ha ha! coward!”
Jong-ri Do-jeon raised his voice and laughed, as if to deliberately listen..
I could hear it strangely well even amid the screams and screams..
“Come on, I'll show those cowards the power of the dark sky.!
The winner will be given a reasonable reward!”
“Oooooh!”
The morale of Amcheon-gun was also unusual..
Their loyalty and fighting spirit were high, but never low..
What Jongri Dojeon said was not a lie..
The compensation for working at Amcheonhoe was actually generous..
Not only will they provide training by providing at least second-class martial arts skills, but those with talent will also be given elixirs..
Generous compensation was also possible in terms of money..
Amcheonhoe was an organization to escape and hide from the purges of Emperor Hongwu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty..
As you know, not only was the staff full of bureaucrats, but the economic power was not small as each family invested their wealth..
The military power of the imperial palace mugo was military power, but his financial power was not ordinary..
money and martial arts.
It was so sweet to be given to those who had nothing..
“Wow!”
The screams of the battlefield rang out non-stop..
