Episode 374
Yu soldiers’ sortie (4)
Yeon Ho-jeong and Mo Yong-woo and Muk-bi participated in the small drinking party.
Mo Yong-woo asked.
“What about Zhuge soldiers?”
“You are at the military department.”
“No, I’m talking about the soldiers of the Mortal Army. “Jegal Soje.”
“therefore. “I went to the military department to ask for help with my father’s work.”
“okay?”
“Because I’m so hectic these days. When it comes to training, the Mortal Army takes care of itself and stops by once in a while to look at the formation or look at the military strategy each person has devised. “If I go on a mission, I will follow you.”
Mo Yong-woo said as if he were jealous.
“I’ve been really envious of you for a long time. “The military presence.”
“Now there’s nothing to be jealous of.”
“Are we going to become an integrated military?”
“of course.”
“…Did you talk to Zhuge Xiaozhe?”
“You didn’t? But didn’t he already have a premonition of his fate?”
Mo Yong-woo clicked his tongue.
“You too.”
Yeon Ho-jeong raised his glass.
“Okay, shall we have a drink first?”
“It’s good.”
The three people clinked their glasses and drank alcohol.
Mo Yong-wu asked Mok-bi.
“If we do that, what will happen to Manager Mook?”
Mukbi shrugged his shoulders.
“well. “I haven’t heard anything from the practitioner yet.”
The two people looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“The higher-ups told me to reassign personnel at their discretion. So, I have my own thoughts.”
“What is that?”
“For the time being, Uijeong-gun will maintain this military system. So just do what you do. My brother is in charge of the Tangma army, and Mukbi is in charge of the Mortal Death army. Ah, in the case of the Mortal Army, I can move along with it depending on the time.”
Mo Yong-woo’s face became blurred.
“Of course, since these are units with very distinct characteristics, it would be good to save each individual’s organs… is that okay?”
“In fact, the Uijeong-gun is not much different from when it went to destroy the Corridor Corps in the past. So to speak, it is the combined army of the Tang Demon Murderers. “The only difference is that it was temporary then and now it is permanent until a separation order is issued.”
“The problem is that it is different.”
“But I don’t have any intention of putting it together too forcefully. “It may be that the departure date is in the distant future, but the higher-ups are planning to send the Uijeong army to the remote area soon.”
“hmm.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, looking at Mo Yong-woo’s expression, asked as if asking.
“You knew?”
“It’s not that I knew, but I told you something separately.”
“Shall we listen?”
Mo Yong-woo relayed the exact same conversation he had with Mo Yong-gun not long ago.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“Ink Dragon Club?”
“That’s right.”
“Hmm.”
“It was a conclusion I came to after considering things on my own. “I’m sorry for not telling Yeonje first.”
“I told you before, right? Since each person’s environment is different, let’s move as each person thinks. “There’s nothing to be sorry about.”
“Thank you for saying that. By the way, what do you think about Yeonje?”
“Ink Dragon Club?”
“That’s right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“not bad. No, it’s actually okay.”
“Thank goodness.”
“The Murim Alliance has various intentions in sending the Uijeong army into battle. The intention was to get closer quickly by rolling around in the dirt together, and there was also the intention to use this opportunity to send them out since they were tied up most of the time even though they were Yugun. And…”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“It’s also to let the world know.”
“The existence of Uijeong-gun?”
“okay. In fact, if you look at the number of people, it is about 50 more than the Tangma group, so it is nothing new, but the important thing is the symbol.”
“Symbol….”
“Yes, symbol.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked up at the ceiling.
“The Murim Alliance has been growing smoothly since its inception. I’m not just saying this, it’s really growing well. However, there are still most people in the world who do not know how great the power of the Murim Alliance is.”
“I think so too.”
“The Mortal Death Army and the Tang Demon Army have been active in the rivers and lakes a few times, but it is not enough. “In the first place, there was no fight with everyone in the midfield watching.”
“Didn’t the Mortal Army destroy the various breakwaters of the Black Island? Moreover, the group of black swords that the Mortal Army eliminated were all true evildoers who sucked out the marrow of the civilians.”
“that’s right. Thanks to that, my reputation rose. But that’s it.”
“I don’t think there is any greater merit than that. In this era when the empire lost its power and ability to maintain security, the Mortal Army took drastic measures to punish the wicked. “Scattered small evils cause more harm to the common people than large evils.”
“Do not try to do great good, but blend into the world and do small good. Yes, that’s right. True kindness is like Ki Woo-hee, doing good things silently even if others don’t know. i think so too.”
“That’s why the Mortal Army is so great.”
“That’s why I thought the Murim Alliance was insufficient.”
“…What does it mean?”
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.
“For an organization as large as the Murim Alliance, dividing good and evil and working together is not that important. No matter what, what moves the world is power and money. And those two things come at the price of fame in the unreasonable world of martial arts.”
“….”
“You will need a bigger, stronger, more certain reputation. That’s why we’re sending the Uijeong Army.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes deepened.
“For the reputation of the Murim Alliance?”
“okay. It’s not even close to the Corridor. Three schools? They are the most dangerous enemies, but the world still doesn’t know about them. Not to mention the mediocre black and white waves.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said while looking at Mo Yong-woo.
“You told Prince Moyong that he had to deal with the Mukryongbu? Perhaps the proposal will be approved one way or another before tomorrow. Why? In the end, what the Murim Alliance needs is reputation.”
“that…!”
I had never thought about it until then. The reason why Mo Yong-woo suggested to Mo Yong-gun that the Mukryongbu should be organized was because of Saeumgyo, not for reputation.
“I… thought that the proposal would not pass easily. The reason is because the Mukryongbu is a huge organization. “If we make a mistake, a war could break out.”
“Things like that happen, too.”
“The reason I said that to you was to catch the culprits of the Three Religions. “I didn’t have such dangerous things in mind.”
“know. I know, but it’s a world where there are a hundred interpretations of even one poem. “Do you even think that you, a member of the Murim League, will act according to your intentions?”
“…!”
“At least in this case, there’s a good chance that won’t be the case.”
“This can’t be right….”
Mo Yong-woo couldn’t believe it.
“Are you saying that my proposal could spark a war with the Black Island?”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“That’s another problem. The members of this clan are not fools. In the current situation, should war start first? Nonsense. “I would never do something so reckless.”
“I guess so?”
“However, it is confirmed that the Uijeonggun will join the military, so they will try to use us as best as possible. And it is a self-evident fact that the best prey for us to make our presence known is the Mukryongbu.”
“…!!”
Mo Yong-woo’s face hardened.
“Just as you said, all of the Bonggong people are wise people. “It goes without saying that power and money are important to the organization, but that doesn’t mean they will force themselves to touch the Mukryongbu.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“That’s why they said it would be approved ‘one way or another.’ It’s not just about touching the Inkryongbu. “You may be ordered to attack illegal business establishments and vicious sects that are connected to the Mukryongbu.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“And about that, I personally infiltrated and dug up information. If approved, there will be a high probability that I will attack them based on the information I brought from the Mukryongbu.”
“…Whew.”
Mo Yong-woo sighed as the ground fell.
“I really don’t feel like what’s going on in the world.”
“When was the world comfortable? “It’s not like my heart and things don’t go the way I want, so each person rushes in to create the world they want.”
Mo Yong-woo, who was looking down at his glass with a confused face, filled Yeon Ho-jeong and Mukbi’s glasses.
“No matter what, I have no choice but to trust the decision of the superiors this time.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
‘What about this time?’
That meant that Mo Yong-woo had been feeling skeptical about the orders from his superiors for some time.
‘hmm.’
Yeon Ho-jeong looked into Mo Yong-woo’s eyes.
He looked confused and frustrated. He looked worried and seemed to have a hint of anger towards this miserable world.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was looking at Mo Yong-woo’s face, suddenly asked.
“Are you frustrated?”
“It’s frustrating.”
“But we still have to fight. “Is there anything else?”
“Don’t say that. “Orders from above are absolute, but at least in Baekdo, there are general principles that take precedence over orders.”
“What is that?”
“Hyeop(俠).”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes lit up.
“Sacrifice the few for the many? Organizations can do that. But Baekdo can’t do that. Everyone becomes better off at the cost of making just one person unhappy? “This is absolutely unacceptable.”
“But that’s reality. Everyone cries out such words, but in the end, the world does not go as expected. “For thousands of years.”
“Still, I have to pursue it. The reason is because it is the right way. “If we don’t pursue it and make efforts just because it’s not realistic, how can we call ourselves white and what can we teach our students?”
Mo Yong-woo’s face distorted.
“What if you lack fame? What if you lack power and money? “In order to help just one person live more like a human being, if it is the right path, we should pursue it.”
His face still looked confused. However, Mo Yong-woo’s voice did not waver.
He is hiding his true intentions and working to correct his family, but that cannot be a reason to disparage Mo Yong-woo.
Mo Yong-woo was originally this kind of person. He was a person who knew what values were that should not be abandoned even if the world was destroyed. Yeon Ho-jeong said that he was a person who was ready to risk his life for his beliefs
.
“But we alone cannot change the survival principles chosen by our long history.”
“That is not a survival principle. “In the end, it was people who created history!”
“Then try changing it yourself.”
“what…?”
“I will help you, brother, so try to correct all of the absurdity and unbecoming behavior you felt.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes shook violently.
Yeon Ho-jeong said calmly.
“There are more evil people in the world than good people. And there are ten thousand times more people who do not know whether what they are doing is good or evil than there are good or evil people.”
“….”
“I don’t think I can reform them all. I’m not in a position to do that. But if you think it’s frustrating, if you want to create that kind of world, I’m willing to risk my life.”
“Yeonje.”
“Of course, the three schools must be punished.”
The two looked at each other in silence.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“One drink would be enough. “It seems like there’s a lot to think about, so let’s call it a day.”
“Yeonje.”
“I’ll come over tomorrow, so buy me a meal.” “Let’s go silent.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stood up, looked down at Mo Yong-woo, and added,
“Keep in mind. There was a fight against the Shinhwa Church, but the real fight hadn’t even started yet. “Think carefully about how you should move and live within it.”
“….”
“Goes. See you tomorrow.”
