Episode 140
Ragtag (4)
“That’s nonsense. “You mean joining the alliance?”
Prince Moyong frowned.
“How can you join the alliance when the warriors who make up the Confucian army have not yet been selected? Are you really planning to send Commander Yu alone?”
“no.”
“if?”
Zhuge Wenhu said calmly.
“Commander Yeonhojeong Yu has already selected all the military personnel.”
“…?!”
“Although the number is small, General Yu’s military expertise is deep and Ilsin’s martial arts skills are great, so we decided that it would be better to send him to Gangho as soon as possible. Of course, this was also a direct request from Commander Yu.”
At that time, Namgung-in spoke.
“No matter how much it is, this is too harsh treatment.”
“Are you saying this is a harsh treatment?”
“The only two independent units in the Murim Alliance called the Independence Army were created. “No matter how free the unit is, sending it without an inauguration ceremony or a military parade ceremony was clearly a mistake, so I can’t say no.”
Say reprimanding things in a polite voice.
Zhuge Wenhu smiled.
“Do you think the head of the Namgung family is the military?”
“It’s not the military, but there are procedures in business. “If they have already joined, they must be recalled. If they have not yet left, they must be held until formal permission is given.”
“I understand what you are saying, but that is just pretentiousness.”
Namgoongin’s eyes trembled slightly.
“What do you mean by pretentiousness?”
“The reason why Commander Yeon said he would join the army as soon as possible is to weaken the power of the black bandits that will spread in various places and stabilize the lives of the people. “Do you really think that etiquette is more important than the rise of the Black Island group?”
Namgung-in’s eyes grew cold.
It was an unexpectedly drastic response. The tone was sophisticated, but the content was clearly aggressive.
‘Are you saying you want to come out like this?’
Prince Moyong opened his mouth.
“What Zhuge Family said….”
“Please correct me. I am a soldier of the Murim Alliance. ”
At that moment, the atmosphere inside the Museongjeon became cold and frozen.
“Also, the people gathered here are leading figures who are leading the Baekdo of our time. “If this is a private meeting, please be careful about your title as it is an empty position.”
Mo Yong-gun smiled faintly.
“sorry. “This person made a mistake because he was not yet familiar with the job title.”
“I understand.”
“I’ll say it again. “There is something wrong with Zhuge Jun’s words.”
“I will refrain from listening to you.”
“Rumors about the creation of the Murim Alliance are spreading widely. However, even if such rumors spread, the Black Path will not rise to power unprepared. “I wonder if Zhuge is reacting too sensitively.”
“Is that so?”
“That’s right. Furthermore, even if groups of black islands are mushrooming at this very moment, it is difficult to individually confirm where they are. “It is absurd to say that Commander Yeon’s unit can subdue the hordes of black swordsmen from all over the world with just one unit.”
Zhuge Wenhu smiled.
For a moment, Moyong thought it was a mistake.
‘Have you been waiting for these words to come out?’
Zhuge Lianghu shouted towards the entrance of Museongjeon.
“Hu-gae, please come to Daejeon.”
Grumble.
The door opened and Full-sang came in. In his hand was a large rolled up piece of paper.
“The full face of the open world meets the elders of the Murim League.”
Zhuge Wenhu said.
“Can you give me a map?”
“Here it is.”
A detailed map of the Central Plains was spread out on a huge table.
The names of the Black Island group’s breakaway groups were written in red letters all over the map.
Surprisingly, the number was over a hundred. Everything from the famous Heukdo breakwater to small-scale breakwaters were written in detail.
“As you all know, the world is wide. “The red mark gives priority to only breakwaters that are large in scale or pose a fatal threat to the safety of people’s lives and are likely to grow significantly in the future.”
“Huh.”
“Even if it is small, it is this much. It would be impossible to count them all if you wanted to figure them all out. However…”
Zhuge Munho looked at Full Sang.
Full Sang smiled and accepted the words.
“If the Yu army travels throughout the central plains and annihilates all the places indicated here, the Black Island Wulin will enter the darkest era in its history.”
In the first place, blackness is something that cannot be eradicated. In a sense, they were much more deeply integrated into the lives of the common people than the Baekdo martial arts forest.
Those who are renowned as expert masters are black swords, the pillars of Giru are also black swords, and those who suck the blood of the people through usury are also black swords.
Such vicious people are collectively referred to as the Black Dao. Unless everyone in the world dies, the Black Dao cannot be eliminated.
So, in the end, there is only one way to suppress the black sword.
The purpose is to destroy the famous Bangpa and masters of the Black Island without mercy. If it raises its head again, we must visit it again and destroy it, and if it is hiding, we must bring it out and destroy it.
“The Bonggongs here are giants of martial arts with as much experience as anyone else. “You probably don’t know that eradicating the black bandits on the map is not an easy task.”
Of course, it is not easy.
This required military skills before the strength of martial arts, and the unity of the unit was important before military skills.
Prince Moyong said.
“I wanted to ask you earlier, but where on earth did you select the warriors belonging to Yeonhojeong’s Yu army?”
Then, some of the old scholars of the Old Daemun Sect kept clearing their throats.
Moyong-gun’s eyes widened.
“Could it be that you were recruited from the Old Daemun Sect?”
Pungbyeokja, a member of the Cheongseong faction, opened his mouth.
“I don’t know about other schools, but in the case of Cheongseong, it was left to the autonomy of the disciples.”
“What do you mean by autonomy?”
“They are the main temple’s precious disciples. But now I am lost and wandering. I believe that for such students, going strong as an independent soldier can be a unique stimulus.”
“Huh.”
Prince Moyong looked around.
“Is it a similar reason for other scholars?”
Everyone was silent. I didn’t really have anything to say, and it seemed like if I said it, the story would just get longer.
The windbreaker opened his mouth again.
“I understand that the number is extremely small.”
Zhuge Wenhu nodded.
“That’s right. Less than fifty.”
Prince Moyong frowned.
“Although they are less than 50 years old, each one of them is a young master who has passed down the techniques of the Nine Daemun Sect. At the same time, they are people who have never been together before. “It’s ridiculous to take these people and go to a powerhouse without proper training.”
Zhuge Wenhu tilted his head.
“It’s hard to ignore those words.”
“What?”
“Wasn’t it Bonggong Moyong who advocated the creation of an independent Yu army and the person who suggested giving the commander of the Yu army the authority over the life and death of his troops?”
“…!!”
“No matter how you train or how you operate the unit, it is all up to Commander Yu. That is why the responsibility that General Yu has to bear is profound. “Isn’t that right?”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes deepened.
‘You got hit.’
I could never have imagined that Yeonhojeong would leave the war so quickly.
He was waiting for the two independent armies to hold a founding ceremony in front of everyone.
Of course, the Yu army played by Yeon Ho-jeong would be extremely crude compared to the Yu army played by Mo Yong-woo. And it will have a huge impact on the morale of the unit.
‘I tried to pressure you from the beginning and start, but you ended up starting first? her!’
Truly, he is a guy whose every thought makes you admire him. It’s like waiting for a match, then overturning the game and going to another gambling house.
Zhuge Wenhu continued.
“I will tell you further. Even if there are disciples of the old faction belonging to the Confucian army who have not received permission from the headmaster, it is impossible to take them out again without the permission of the commander.”
The eyes of Yonghwajinin (龍華眞人), the leader of the Hwasan Sect, suddenly became sharper.
“That’s nonsense. How can we just sit back and watch when a disciple from the main mountain belongs to a unit without permission and without certification? “This is something that should never be said.”
“In that case, this phrase should be omitted from the Association Law.”
Zhuge Wenhu said in a cold voice.
“The laws of the League are strict, and no member of the Murim Alliance is free from the laws. Even if you are a lord, you can be punished by law after the protection period under the special law for lords ends.”
“…!!”
“If you are not going to give that level of authority to each unit commander, I will also resign from my military position.”
Yonghwajinin was embarrassed.
“How can you say that?”
“The power of the White Path has once again gathered in the Murim Alliance, which had been empty for a long time. “Our servants gathered here represent each clan.”
Zhuge Wenhu looked around at the Dukes.
His eyes, which were full of wisdom, glowed more sternly than ever.
“I believe that when we agreed to the creation of the Murim Alliance, all of the servants here were prepared to follow the strictness of the martial law.”
This is Zhuge Li, who overwhelms the audience with his three-inch tongue.
Moyong-gun clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘You’ve taken a complete hit.’
It is unknown whether Zhuge Liang had any kind of relationship with Yeon Ho-jeong.
However, due to Yeon Hao-jeong’s unusual actions, Zhuge Mun-ho was given the justification to take control of the feudal lords. And Zhuge Wenhu did not miss that wonderful opportunity.
Now no one will be able to ignore Zhuge Wenhu’s words. Even Mr. Moyong, who guessed what was going on.
“I’m sorry for what I said.”
Full-sang scratched his head. Heoyeon’s dandruff has fallen.
“Now that all of you, the governor’s servants, are here, can I tell you some exciting information I just received?”
Zhuge Wenhu nodded.
“Please speak at your convenience.”
“thank you.”
Full-sang took a deep breath.
“Speaking of black people, black people who cannot be ignored by the Association have appeared in the world.”
“Who is that?”
“We are the disciples of King Tu.”
“…!!”
“And some of them… are closer than you think.”
* * *
A space full of darkness.
Two pairs of glowing ghost eyes appeared there.
“Did you say Murimmaeng?”
“That’s right.”
“…Are you saying that the political sects founded the Murim Alliance?”
“yes.”
“Maybe they noticed that we were moving?”
“We are keeping all possibilities open, but I think there is a high probability that we will never know.”
“If they don’t know about us, how was the Murim Alliance founded in this situation?”
“We haven’t found out the detailed reason yet. However, the general opinion is that the extinction of the Nine Ju Myeong family was the starting point for the political faction and martial arts alliance.”
“Right.”
“Nothing unusual has been found in their movements yet. “There is a need to be careful, but there seems to be no need to delay work because of the Baekdo Murim Alliance.”
“I didn’t mean to delay. But you have to be careful enough. If it is adultery, we must become fog. “We will maintain the current system at least until the occupancy rate exceeds seventy percent.”
“All right.”
“Fortunately, since ‘he’ has opened his eyes, it seems that he will be more than ten years earlier than the original Great Precepts.”
“Have you finally opened your eyes?”
“That’s right.”
“….”
“It’s a good thing, but don’t get too excited. “Let’s proceed step by step as we have done so far.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“…It’s going to be a long fight. “A very boring and long fight.”
