Episode 476
In the distance, the emperor grinned and swung his awl briefly to shake off blood.
Like a cruel guy
Still, there is no one like him who can pierce the neck without even knowing the victim.
So what about the exodus?
When Jinmu turned his head, he saw Gakchul approaching with a bone dripping with blood.
“Heavenly Lord has been captured.”
“…”
That’s really great, you fucking bastard.
Don’t smile proudly like a domestic cat proud of catching a mouse, but keep your mouth shut.
Before pulling out all those sit-nurun teeth.
Jinmu frowned as if he had seen something unseen and looked at the scout that Gakchul had brought.
His head exploded, blood flowed and his body drooped, as if all the bones in his body were crushed.
I was told to capture him alive.
Are your ears dark? Or do you not know the meaning?
How can I interrogate that person who is barely breathing and screaming…
Haa, it’s my fault.
In the future, I’ll have to give a very detailed explanation and send it to you.
Right now, it’s more urgent to deal with the guys at the bottom of the cliff than to beat him.
“The emperor.”
“…?”
“There may be more scouts. Go around and deal with the sins.”
At Jinmu’s command, Hwangsin bowed his head and disappeared at the same time.
“Me?”
Jinmu let out a deep sigh with eyes full of expectations and waved his hand insincerely.
“…You go too.”
Shhhhh… damn.
What do you do if you can make the sound of the wind well?
So, what kind of person is being declared alive and what kind of person is being interrogated in this yard?
Just swing the bones and send them all to Beomang Mountain.
Jinmu, who had been sent to the excavation, stuck to the edge of the cliff and secretly poked his head out and looked down.
A large campsite.
This is the first enemy you encounter in the north.
Based on the number of tents, roughly 2,000 people?
After all, they were preparing to attack Hebei.
As Jeoksaeng said, if Seongdonggyeokseo or Johoi Mountain were in mind, he would not have had this much troops.
There must be an enemy of similar size nearby.
But let’s see… Six times more than the Steel Blade is also a number, but I’m concerned about the arrangement of the camp… In
this case…
In this case…
Damn, thinking about it just makes my head hurt.
It’s not like this, you should ask Wonryeo to see it.
I don’t know if it’s blindly breaking it, but it’s because he’s better than me or Woomyung when it comes to rolling his head.
That’s why in the past, I had them study tactics while playing.
I wouldn’t have missed it all this time.
The knowledge learned while being beaten will be deeply engraved in the bones, so even if it is not until the enemy, he will be able to read the war situation.
“Want!”
When Jinmu gestured backwards, Mo Won-ryeo crawled hard with her stomach on the floor, covered in blood.
Swish.
“….”
He must have killed all the scouts too. It’s just a matter of hiding his body and lowering his posture and jumping.
What is that…. It started to come to me with crawling.
Even the trusted Seohyeon…
Are you struggling to adapt to the Iron Sword?
No matter how you do it, don’t follow that!
Promising to teach Hwangshin at least some basic stealth techniques later, Jinmu asked Mo Won-ryeo, who was seated next to him.
“how is it?”
“Hmm…”
Mo Won-ryeo looked down with sharp eyes, sticking out her eyes like Jin-mu from a moment ago.
“It is a jin method in which the character jeong (井) is repeated.”
“what is that?”
Mo Won-ryeo stared blankly at Jin-mu for a moment at the innocent question, then muttered with a serious expression.
“…Hmm, it seems that the Heavenly Lord is weak in tactics like the previous Heavenly Lord.”
“….”
Jinmu clenched his fist with all his might and lifted it up at the words that he couldn’t just lift.
Haven’t there been more useless comments while our wonryeo hasn’t seen it?
On the topic that I understood by forcibly memorizing the six martial arts while being beaten and crying until my eyes were swollen…
“Keuheumheum devotion is a way to keep the center by arranging troops like a well. If the shape of the Chinese character 井 is formed repeatedly in this way, there is a high possibility that there will be a strong warrior as it moves toward the center.”
Seeing Jinmu’s bloody eyes, Mo Won-ryeo spat out an explanation as if pouring water.
The baby …. I see it once, but I will definitely George.
“Is it stronger the further you go inside?”
“yes. If it’s a formation like that, it’s usually written in the book.”
“Hmm.”
Jinmu nodded his head and stroked his chin at the words as he shrank his neck like Zara, but stopped his hand at a thought that suddenly came to his mind.
Well, theory and practice are different, but anyway, the deeper you go, the stronger it is.
Conversely, the outskirts are weaker.
“…these bastards. I only punished the lord of the Grand Palace for the worst.”
“yes?”
“In the end, aren’t you saying that the defenses on the outskirts are a shield to protect the core forces inside in case of emergency?”
“It is… yes. It usually is.”
“Fucking bastards. What the heck do you think of the subordinates… Okay, so anyway?”
Jinmu nodded and looked over the entire formation of the enemy that Mo Won-ryeo had grasped.
The situation of climbing a cliff.
It’s a fairly high terrain, so it’s not easy to go down or come up unless you have good light air.
In the end, the place to escape is the north, on the other side of the cliff.
Now, the important thing here is…
There is a high probability that there will be additional forces nearby, so you must annihilate them before reinforcements arrive and disappear without a trace.
Only then could he shake them all with a small number.
“What is the countermeasure?”
“…Um, I think it’s better to use a method to cut off the enemy’s escape route and attack the center to disintegrate it.”
At Mo Won-ryeo’s words, Jin-moo nodded.
“Then I guess I’ll have to open a blacksmith’s shop.”
“uh? How do you go about that strategy?”
Mo Won-ryeo opened her eyes wide in surprise, but Cheon Woo-myeong nodded with exclamation.
“Ho! Are you thinking of hammering yourself?”
“okay.”
“…?”
what? Do you two talk?
Mo Won-ryeo’s eyes widened even more when he saw Chun Woo-myeong, who was even stupid enough, to quickly understand and answer.
Forge strategy.
This strategy, which shines in battles against many with few, especially in surprise attacks, was devised by the Heavenly Lord of the previous generation and taught to the Iron Swordsman.
Even the Jegal Hyeopjin, who had been directly subjected to it in the past, was tongue-tied, so his excellence was more than proved.
The downside is that you can never use it when you don’t have Hyeokryeon Wu Gang or Cheon Woo Myung.
“Um… what about lord blacksmithing and hammering?”
Among those who did not understand the meaning of Jinmu, Neung Seo-hyeon, the representative, carefully asked.
“there is. A tactic that the Iron Blade can use only when I am present.”
“yes?”
When Neung Seo-hyeon asked again, Cheon Woo-myeong proudly explained on behalf of Jin-mu.
“Don’t you know the forge?”
“…that’s right.”
“What do you usually do at the smithy?”
“…smelting iron.”
“okay. You’re hammering it against an anvil.”
“…”
Did you ask because you didn’t know that?
Seohyun Neung’s eyes shone as if she was asking for a more detailed explanation, but the explanation was just that.
“Chun Danju, please explain in more detail…”
“….”
When Neung Seo-hyeon asked again, Chun Woo-myeong shook his head, keeping his mouth shut.
Because she is a member of the Demonic Cult, she is reluctant to expose her strategy?
No way.
It was because it was impossible to explain logically in the first place.
“Want.”
“yes?”
“Prepare a hammer to follow Woo Myung and Seo Hyun. The anvil is built wide enough to encircle the enemy if you lead it yourself.”
“Then you have two hammers?”
“No, three of me. The third hammer is me alone.”
“…All right.”
Who can say what?
Today’s Cheon Jun is stronger than Neung Seo-hyeon and Chun Woo-myeong combined.
“We must attack before they realize that Scout is dead. There is no need for droppers. The target is their core force. As soon as the anvil is ready, I start hammering, because I have to finish it quickly before the reinforcements they ask for arrive.”
“…”
Mo Won-ryeo, who had been listening for a while, blinked her eyes with a puzzled expression.
It’s amazing to know the strategy of the forge created by the former Heavenly Father, so why is it so detailed?
There’s no way he’d listened to tactics lectures from the late Lord God… By any chance, Lord Dan?
At the moment of possibility, he turned his head and looked at Chun Woo-myeong.
…not a person capable of teaching. So what the hell?
“What are you doing? Didn’t you hear that I was going to finish it quickly?”
“…Oh no. I will prepare soon!”
Mo Won-ryeo hurriedly ran towards the main unit, where Jin-mu was hiding.
* * *
“Did the skirmisher lose contact?”
“That’s right. We sent a few over the cliff to check.”
“…”
At the command of his subordinate, the skinny man looked at the top of the cliff with fierce eyes.
The flesh that glistened in his eyes was also murderous, but his skinny and stooped body to the extent that his bones were exposed made him look even more grotesque.
Unscented of the eungjo (鷹爪).
Just like the name of Muhyang, who was killed by Geomseong, was Wal-do, there was no specific name for them. The martial art he used was his name.
In any case, Ngzhao was one of the five warriors waiting for the order to attack Hebei, leading one of the main forces of the palace.
The cliff his eyes touched was silent.
There was no sign of change in particular, and the clouds were flowing leisurely as always in the sky.
“Indolent bastards… no matter how much they’re waiting for orders, aren’t those scouts so distracted that they skip regular calls?”
“…”
“Catch him right away and decapitate him in front of everyone.”
“All right.”
At the command of the eungjo, the subordinate hurriedly ran.
It was at that time that Eungjo, who had looked around the cliff for a while after his subordinate had disappeared, but found nothing special, and was about to turn his head.
Wow!
Suddenly, a loud crashing sound came from the north.
“What is this?”
As soon as Eungjo opened his eyes wide, his subordinates hurriedly ran and shouted.
“It’s a raid! An enemy has appeared!”
“…!”
enemy?
There were no signs at all.
There was no contact from Sejak, who had immigrated to Hebuk with the refugees.
But how?
A situation incomprehensible to common sense stopped the accident for a moment, but Eungjo soon came to his senses and had a sneer on his lips.
I don’t know what kind of guys they are, but they’re doing stupid things.
The gigantic cliff they backed from is a natural defense. A person who does not have tolerable light air can never come down.
I don’t know how I didn’t catch the scout’s eyes, but the enemy must have taken a detour.
But that’s it.
Ngjo believed in the way he deployed his troops.
“Kwanseo! The size of the enemy has not been grasped, so inform your nearby allies of the situation!”
“yes!”
“Sima Guo! With the cliff on their back, they change their formation to wave formation.”
“yes!”
The adjutants who received the order ran quickly.
If the diligence to defend the center is to defend in all directions, the wave formation in which troops are lined up and stacked like waves maximizes the defense against the enemy in front.
It was an unexpected attack, but it didn’t matter.
No matter how hard you attack, the enemy will only be able to consume the useless troops on the outskirts, but the inside will never be able to penetrate.
And the moment they get tired of the constant attacks, they will see hell.
By himself and his response team…
* * *
“The enemy has changed formation.”
“…”
Jinmu nodded at Neung Seohyun’s words.
he was watching too
Mao Yuanli led five squadrons to bypass and cut off the enemy’s escape route.
Their change of formation must be a ploy to wait for the attackers to tire out while blocking it with outside troops.
This means that the enemy’s leader knows quite a bit about tactics.
However, most of those guys only believe in tactics and make the mistake of thinking that their thoughts are unconditionally right.
current situation.
If they changed their formation, focusing only on the enemies in front of them, they would believe the cliffs were their defense.
A cliff like this would never be able to jump down with a large army.
If you don’t have a fair bit of light air, you’ll go down and die.
However, it is only in the case of tolerable light air.
The anvil’s role in the forge strategy is to hold, not attack.
To block the path so that the enemy cannot escape.
In the first place, it is crazy to engage in a head-to-head match against an enemy that may exceed 2,000 with 300.
The real attack is with the hammer that strikes the iron.
They were the ones selected by Mo Won-ryeo and stood behind Jin-mu.
There are very few unmanned soldiers with strong enough power to pierce the enemy at once and excellent light air power to jump down a cliff and attack.
Breaking through enemy lines with such a small number of people may seem like crazy at first glance, but the absolute military leader Jinmu, Chun Woo-myeong, and Neung Seo-hyeon could turn that madness into reality.
“Kuhuh, if you start changing formations, it’s the same as saying that the iron is hot.”
Watching the change in formation under the cliff, Jinmu flapped his sleeves and stretched out his fingers toward a point in the enemy camp, like Zhuge Liang leading the battlefield.
It was the left side of center that weakened as power moved forward.
“Go and kill Woo Myung!”
“Hehe, please leave it to me, Lord!”
Upon receiving the order, Cheon Woo-myeong and the warriors who followed him all threw themselves toward the cliff.
Go, my hammers.
Beat the hot iron like mad and let them know how pointless that kind of defense they believe is.
