Episode 296

Another two days have passed.

Geumryonghyeop was revealed through Hwasan, and Yang Sobang, who was unable to visit in person, testified Jinmu’s innocence in a letter.

His complicated state of mind remained intact in the words written in the letter...

Well, since he revealed it himself, he might have felt more comfortable now that he didn’t have to block the secret from being known.

In any case, Jinmu was released as a free body, and none of the leaders who saw him off showed any signs of doubting him.

Rather, I was rooting for him in my heart. Now, no matter what anyone says, isn’t he the best leader of the political faction and encompassing even Sapaecheon?

“Are you really going to go alone?”

“...”

asked Hyejo, who was temporarily in charge of northern Jin because Namgung Muhyu couldn’t wake up.

“Since you have learned the martial arts of the Four Emperors, you are no different from his predecessor. Even if you don’t want to, they will surely think so. Maybe they will think of you as the new sapphire lord.”

“....”

The leaders looking at Jinmu nodded their heads in unison.

What do these idiots not know? Sapaecheon is mine from the beginning.

“How is it? As long as they follow you, it’s okay for the government to join hands if it’s to find Yuwolcheong guilty.”

Jinmu laughed and shook his head.

“no. This is something they have to deal with. It’s something political parties shouldn’t be involved in. And although we may be helping for a while, we have no intention of interfering in their lives.”

“...hmm.”

“However, in order to root out the power of the palace that is aiming for the midfield, I think we need to add strength for a while.”

“Hmm... I’ll discuss that with my lord once again. Then you will be with us.”

“yes. I’ll see you as soon as Sapaecheon’s work is finished.”

“Hehe, anyway, it’s fortunate that someone like you became a bridge.”

At Hyejo’s words, everyone nodded and looked at Jinmu.

In the meantime, Myeonghyeon and his shaman disciples looked extremely proud.

“Now open the north march. They only think of the nature of Sapaecheon in Mt. Cheonjung, so please also loosen the borders of Gangseo blocking Gwanwol Won Gonghu and Cheonungbang.”

“I have already contacted them.”

“thank you.”

Jinmu bowed his head in gratitude and Hyejo stepped back to give orders to the leadership, and Myeonghyeon and the shaman’s warriors approached.

“Jinmu, you have to be careful.”

“Don’t worry.”

“Sasook.”

The sad eyes of Cheongsang and Chungwoo looking at Jinmu.

“I know you’ll die if you hug me.”

“...”

The threat didn’t come any further.

“I’ll see you at Wudang Mountain after the death penalty.”

At Jinmu’s words, Jinmyeong smiled and nodded.

“I have a good drink ready.”

“Then I’ll have to go back sooner than I thought.”

“okay.”

When the greetings were over, Hyejo looked at Bukjin and shouted in a high-pitched voice that was not appropriate for her age.

“Go north!”

When Hyejo’s name fell, the warriors of the Jeongmu-maeng withdrew like the ebb tide and emptied the dock.

release of the northward movement.

Looking at the situation, Jinmu stepped out of the crack in the road and looked at the river and took a deep breath.

There was no need to hide now.

Because he was acknowledged by everyone as a shaman swordsman and at the same time as a military man who inherited the martial arts of the Revolutionary Army.

“Cross the Sapaecheon River!”

The voice of Jinmu, who exhaled and shouted, resonates across the Yellow River.

It is a signal to the Emperor.

If he’s a good-eared guy, he’ll be able to hear enough.

At Jinmu’s cry, everyone looks across the river.

After the meeting in Daejeon, a secret meeting was taking place among the elders of Sapaecheon in the office of Grand Master Dan Kyung-ju inside the main castle of Sapaecheon.

“Since the Great Lord Shanxi Chamber of Commerce fell into their hands, we have not been able to communicate with the ruler or the forces of Shanxi.”

“Um...”

Kwak Chil-seong, the patrol elder who oversees the boundaries of the outer castle, took his luck with a frustrated expression.

He referred to ‘gungju’ and called the general, Gyeongju Dan, by the title of Daeju.

The replacements of Amyeongdae of the Samgung.

After the Beoncheongye was enforced by Song Yeobang’s order, most of the elders of Sapaecheon and the chiefs of the Muindae were replaced.

Of course, only Amyeongdae’s warrior, Song Yeo-bang, and his direct subordinate, Jeongungdae, were aware of this fact.

It was Amyeongdaeju Ilkyung who disguised himself as the elder Dangyeongju, and the rest of the elders were all officers of the Amyeongdae.

“In addition, the movement of green forest, water color metallurgical party, and black four squares is unusual.”

“Isn’t it serious?”

“yes. Perhaps it is time to step back from the war and contact them.”

“They are like bats.”

But it was already roughly expected.

Four places, including Green Forest, were loyal to Sapaecheon’s nature purely for their own benefit.

People who can turn their backs at any time when a crisis comes.

Although there are many of them, the majority of them are mere bandits and outnumbered back alley rogues, so their actual strength is not much.

In addition, most of them except for the head coach were spread throughout the central field, so they could not even play the role of a sword guard.

“What should I do?”

Introspective elder Dongguan asks.

“Leave it. The general trend doesn’t change even if my guys take that side. Now, the first thing to do is to confirm whether the princess is alive or dead.”

“Are you sure you want to contact Shanxi?”

“Of course. They say they destroyed the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce, but as long as the princess is still alive, it doesn’t matter.”

“But the pigeons aren’t coming back. It takes time to visit in person...”

“Enough time.”

“...yes?”

Kyung-joo Dan smiles at Dong-gwan, who looks puzzled.

“Close the gates tightly and set up a sit-in.”

All the elders gave a small exclamation at the words of Dan Kyung-ju.

It was a strategy to close the gates of the fortress and only defend it.

“If they passed Hechang, they would arrive near Cheonzhong Mountain as early as tomorrow afternoon. Since they have moved a long distance, there is no way they will attack right away.”

“Also, if King Sapao is leading them, they will not be able to recklessly attack.”

“right. You can never attack.”

The strength of Sapaecheon’s nature was not so good.

There are five unmanned corps guarding the nature, and their number is estimated at 2,000.

The number of unmanned people was also the number of unmanned people, but the important thing was the extermination and killing machines installed in the castle.

It was an organ installed by the legendary master Gu Yaja Bang Yucheok himself, so there was no need to say more about its power.

It was to the extent that the warriors of the Umyeongdae were terrified to find out later that such a defense had been prepared.

“Hmm, that would buy me at least ten days.”

At Dongguan’s words, the elders, who had dark faces, nodded their heads in unison.

It has nothing to do with Yuwolcheong’s will to implement the plan for the sit-in.

If the elders shout with one voice, he will not be able to help it.

In addition, since the chiefs of the Mujidae guarding the nature of Sapaecheon were changed to Umugi warriors after the Beoncheongye was implemented, there was no objection to their decision.

“Kwak Chil-seong. Send someone to Shanxi immediately. Ten days should be enough to figure out the situation and come back.”

“All right.”

“When the Dongguans arrive, select children with excellent stealth and have them personally look inside the enemy. There is a skin barrier, so pay full attention.”

“All right.”

“Tell it secretly to everyone in the Umyeongdae. Wait at your respective positions until I give you instructions.”

“...”

“If things go wrong and war breaks out, we fight to the best of our ability. It is also one of our goals that the Sapaecheon collapse through civil war. However, when their victory is certain, surrender without hesitation and plan for the future.”

“All right.”

The elders responded in a low voice to Dan Kyung-ju’s words.
