Chapter 803

Episode 803: Bloody Battle in the Jungle (9)

“It seems like the Korean warriors found out about our trick and found a way.”

At Akon’s words, the subordinate officers looked at him with great nervousness. Akon continued speaking while looking at the jungle.

“As warriors, we are definitely pushed back when we face each other head-on. So, like a jaguar hiding in the jungle, I hid and targeted them. And it seems to have worked.”

“You mean...”

“Their weapons are as noisy as they are strong. Like the sound of thunder in the sky. But these days, such sounds are rarely heard. This means they don’t use those weapons. “What do you think this means?”

“....”

The subordinates answered Archon’s question with silence. In times like this, not answering anything was the basic way to behave.

Akon continued speaking with a grin.

“They say there is something wrong with the weapons of the Korean warriors. In other words, we suffered the loss of a significant number of the warriors we sent out, but they suffered even greater losses.”

“ah!”

The subordinates’ faces brightened at Akon’s words.

Clearly, the weapons used by the enemies were powerful and made a loud noise like thunder.

When the warriors were first sent out into ambush, loud noises continued to sound as if the jungle was leaving.

However, as time went by, the noises became less frequent and were now heard only occasionally.

The number of raiding teams sent out by the Mesicas returning was decreasing. However, a significant number of the raiding teams returned safely, and the Mesicaans filled up the number of raiding teams that had been consumed and sent them out again.

In this situation, the noise made by the enemies’ weapons was decreasing, which meant that the enemies were unable to use their weapons or that there was a problem with the weapons.

The subordinates realized what Akon’s words meant and began to fire up their fighting spirit again.

“Then are you going to face it again?”

Akon shook his head in response to his subordinate’s question.

“No, there is some danger, so I avoid direct confrontation. “Moves like a jaguar.”

“Are you going to increase the number of raid teams?”

“similar.”

Akon paused for a moment and explained his plan.

-According to the messenger, 30,000 additional warriors will arrive within a few days.

-Let the 30,000 warriors guard the entrance to the jungle, then divide the warriors into two groups and enter the jungle.

-We flank the enemy in the jungle while the newly arrived warriors deal with the Korean warriors.

One of Akon’s subordinates who heard of Akon’s plan pointed out a problem.

“It’s a good trick, but will the new arrivals really want to do that?”

The subordinate’s point was reasonable.

Looking at the decrease in sounds as loud as thunder, it was clear that there was a problem with the weapons used by the enemy Korean warriors.

But even though the thunder had subsided, it was still there.

This meant that not all weapons used by the enemy were problematic.

In that case, those who face the enemy head-on must be prepared to suffer great losses.

Akon responded to his subordinate’s point with a wry smile.

“They will actually step forward to take on that mission. Because it’s a ‘warrior’.”

The subordinates gritted their teeth at Akon’s words.

Archon, who had retreated after his first defeat, sent out an ambush team and at the same time requested support from other Mesica armies.

At that time, a messenger who had been to another unit came back with a reply other than ‘I will arrive as soon as possible.’

It was an accusation of Akon’s retreat and guerrilla warfare.

-There may be defeat. However, it is unbecoming of a Messika warrior to retreat immediately after losing or to launch an ambush or surprise attack.

Akon gritted his teeth upon hearing this criticism.

“These guys are just casually hunting for sacrifices! Not worthy of a warrior? under!”

The Messicans did not always face each other proudly.

Kang Cho-gwan, who was resting crouched on one side, immediately came to his senses at the whisper of his subordinate and crawled forward.

Once Kang Cho-gwan was seated, the subordinate handed over the monocle and continued speaking.

“It’s a significant number.”

“Right. Let’s see...”

Kang Cho-gwan looked at the newly arrived Messicans through his monocle and examined the size of the reinforcements.

“Let’s see... I think the guys following behind me are porters and the fighters are... hmm... about 30,000? “I guess that’s about it.”

A subordinate next to Kang Cho-gwan asked what he said.

“Are you going to come back and report right away?”

“Hmm...”

After thinking for a moment, Kang Cho-gwan looked back at his subordinate.

“Then divide the group into two. You take half the group and go back and report. “I’ll have to take a closer look here before returning.”

“All right. Then we will return as soon as possible.”

“Like that. ah! “Don’t forget to play it cool.”

“yes.”

The undercover squad, which specializes in moving and operating secretly, left various marks to reveal their own routes and information.

The slang term for this type of sign was shichimi. It was taken from the sichimi that was attached to the leg of a hunting falcon to identify which one it was.

Even while half of the men were leaving, Kang Cho-gwan put the monocle to his eye and inspected the enemy lines.

* * *

“Good! “We’ll take over that mission!”

The commander of the newly arrived unit heard Akon’s operation and responded coolly.

“After all, a warrior must be proud! “To be a warrior, you must fight proudly face to face and gain victory!”

Akon smiled and accepted his generous words.

“Then please take care of me. I will move right away. “It takes time to move in the jungle.”

“Do it!”

Akon, who came out, smiled and looked towards where the newly arrived commander was.

“A warrior must be proud? That’s funny...”

There was a reason for Akon’s ridicule.

Among the customs of the Mesicas was fighting between captured warriors and Messica warriors.

The problem is that the Macuahuitl used by the Mesica people had a proper obsidian blade, but the one used by the prisoners was without a blade.

And instead of fighting in equal numbers, the number of Messica warriors was much greater.

Knowing that tradition, Archon laughed at the reinforcement commander.

And there were other reasons as well.

When Archon first suggested it, the reinforcement commander was slightly hesitant.

“According to what our warriors have scouted, it appears that there are many problems with the enemy’s weapons.”

“There’s a problem?”

As soon as he heard Akon’s explanation, the reinforcement commander’s attitude immediately changed.

* * *

As each task was divided, the Messicans immediately began to move.

Kang Cho-gwan, who watched the movement, quietly looked back at the remaining people.

“Let us move too.”

Kang Cho-gwan and his party, on their way home, moved quickly while maintaining secrecy.

What helped them the most in their return was the foolishness left behind by those who left first and the other group’s undercover team members.

Thanks to the fact that they moved while confirming the foolishness, Kang Cho-gwan and his party were able to quickly return and explain the situation to Lee Jing-ok.

After hearing Kang Chu-gwan’s report, Lee Jing-ok muttered while stroking his bushy beard.

“Things are getting fun....”
