Episode 712: Second Battle of the Yellow Sea (10)
Deng Shu-lin continued to increase the intensity of his criticism.
“Coward!”
“Shame of the unmanned!”
“The one who repaid His Majesty’s favor with vengeance!”
Two days later, when the Inland Sea fleet sailed again after completing maintenance and supplies, Deng Su-lin’s criticism reached its peak.
This was because it was possible to know the destination of the inland sea fleet that had escaped from the fleet.
“It is a soldier’s duty to sink at least one more ship of the Koreans’ battle line with the determination to die! “Surrender!”
“You’re a coward, and food goes down your throat!”
“If it were me, I would have bitten my tongue and died right away!”
When not only Deng Shulin but other surviving commanders joined in the criticism, Jin Yu was driven into a dead end.
Jinyu eventually came out and motioned for the guards.
“Is there a problem?”
Jinwi gave a short answer to the question of the interpreter who came with the guard.
“I want to become a citizen of the empire.”
The interpreter, upon hearing Jinwi’s business, immediately turned around.
“Please follow me.”

An Hui, who received the report that ‘Jin Yue is about to convert,’ smiled broadly and nodded.
“Of course it is! “Bring me here right now!”
“yep!”
The news of Jinwi’s conversion immediately reached Jo Jinwoong.
“Please bring Commander Jin with you.”
“yes!”
Jo Jin-woong, who faced Jin-wi like that, opened his mouth with a warm smile.
“I was truly impressed by the exquisite steering skills and battle command shown in the last battle.”
“That’s too much praise. “The captain I worked with was just good.”
“But why did you decide to change jobs?”
Jinwi, who was silent for a moment in response to Cho Jinwoong’s question, soon smiled sadly and answered.
“Since you received the report from the guards, I don’t think you are aware of my situation.”
Jo Jin-woong lightly cleared his throat and responded to the subtle criticism, ‘Don’t tease people knowingly.’
“greatness! Huh! This was a mistake made by the main office. “Do you have anything else to ask?”
“The director has a family in Nantong. “If the warden’s change becomes known, they will be in trouble, so we need to take measures.”
“Hmm... I will stay with Your Majesty to get an answer on that matter.”
In response to Jo Jin-woong’s answer, Jin-wi bowed his head and earnestly asked.
“If you save my family, I will repay you.”
“I’ll do my best. And then... The captain who was with me at the time seemed fine, so how come you don’t have an answer?”
At Jo Jin-woong’s request, Jin-wi smiled bitterly and muttered to himself.
‘It is said that what the Joseon people are most greedy for is people, and indeed...’
“It is probably a difficult situation, so if you speak well, you will get good results.”
“Can the general help me?”
Jinwi, who thought for a moment about Cho Jinwoong’s request, soon nodded.
“The director will come forward and persuade him.”
“oh! Please take care of me!”
After finishing the conversation, Jinwi looked up at the sky and sighed.
“Whoa~. I can’t help it. I have no choice but to do my best in this situation...”
Jinwi, who had decided to change her career, soon did her best. The captain, who showed a lukewarm response at first, decided to convert after Jinwi’s continued persuasion. The conditions put forward by the captain who decided to change jobs were also similar to Jinwi’s.
-Please get my family out of Nantong safely!
And Janggye, who recorded all these details, soon went up to Seoul.
“Someone is coming. The empire is still lacking. Actually....”
Jinyu repeated what he had said to Emperor Gyeong.
The longer Jinwi’s words continued, the more the ministers’ eyes began to sparkle.
‘Is this a long time coming?’
‘It’s a waste of insight to just confine to Shinji, let alone the military!’
‘How can I bring him back?’
When a fresh talent came into view for the first time in a long time, the eyes of the ministers became stained with greed.
“huh?”
Jinyu, who had been explaining for a while, suddenly felt a chill in his body and stopped speaking.
“Why do you stop talking?”
“Oh, it’s nothing. “I suddenly got chills...”
After hearing Jinwi’s answer through the interpreter, Hyang smiled and ordered.
“It seems like the ministers are getting greedy for the first time in a while. “Don’t pay attention and continue your explanation.”
* * *
After the interview, which was not an interview, Hyang gave orders to Jinwi and Ham Deokpung.
“I cannot hide my joy that talented people like you have come into the arms of the empire. “We will do our best to achieve the salvation of your family that you have requested.”
Hearing Hyang’s words, Jinwi and Hamdeokpung immediately bowed down on the floor and bowed their heads.
“Hwang Eun is devastated!”
“You guys can go out.”
Jinwi and Hamdeokpung politely bowed to the incense’s congratulatory message and walked backwards out of Geunjeongjeon.
After the two people left, Hyang asked the ministers and Wan.
“What do you think?”
“I think they are outstanding talents. In particular, as Jinwi said, the moment our empire follows the path of Bucha is the beginning of crisis, which was a painful piece of advice.”
No sooner had Kim Jeom finished speaking than Kim Jong-seo continued.
“I’ll buy it back. “The mistake of conviction a little while ago was also caused by complacency resulting from the victories we have achieved so far, so we must be on guard.”
Hyang also nodded at Kim Jong-seo’s words.
“Jim thinks so too.”
* * *
“With this defeat, the Ming will once again kill off their momentum and take advantage of the opportunity. General, when do you think that will be?”
Jinwi immediately answered Hyang’s question.
“The empire will create that opportunity.”
“Our empire will create it? how?”
Jinwi’s answer to Hyang’s question was simple and clear.
“The moment the empire follows Bucha’s path, the Ming will have an opportunity.”
“ah!”
At that moment, Hyang and all the ministers let out exclamations of exclamation at the same time.
In Wasin Sangdam, Owang Bucha, the protagonist of Wasin, waited for an opportunity to avenge his father by sleeping on thorny firewood.
And as soon as Bucha, who had developed his strength by seizing the opportunity, succeeded in taking revenge, he enjoyed pleasure and forgot about the past.
In the end, Bucha, who had become so lazy, was defeated by Gucheon, who was looking for an opportunity while licking his gallbladder, and committed suicide.
In other words, the moment the empire became lazy due to its own power was the moment of destruction.
But the scent was scent.
“Then I will ask you again. “How many people will get that opportunity?”
Jinwi answered Hyang’s question in an uncertain voice.
“I can’t guarantee.”
Hyang’s eyes sparkled even more at Jinwi’s answer.
“You’re surprisingly cool, aren’t you?”
“I was taught that those who want to win must be as calm as possible.”
“Then, judging so calmly, what does Ming’s future look like?”
“It’s not good.”
