Episode 1253 And to live! (3)
The small fishing boat was rocked violently by the incoming waves.
“Oh my!”
“Be careful. If you fall, you’ll get swept away!”
“You’re so worried. Do you think I’ve been doing this for a year or two?”
“That’s right. And so far, everyone who has gone that way has said the same thing before leaving.”
“This guy is ominous…”
The person pulling the net frowned and looked at the net he had pulled up. The net was empty. The person pulling clicked his tongue.
“Today’s harvest is not good…”
“It’s like that the day after a typhoon. Don’t complain and just get on with your work.”
“I’m probably going to play ball today anyway, so why not stop by and go have a drink?”
“Are you crazy? I starved during the typhoon. If I go home empty-handed, my wife will try to rip my head off.”
“There isn’t much left anyway.”
“what?”
Men with tanned, sun-tanned skin fight and pull the net.
Thick drops of sweat continued to flow down, but their faces were full of joy rather than hardship. No matter how difficult sailing work is, it is nothing compared to the pain of spending endless time on land without being able to go to sea.
“I guess I’ll have to get something before the sun sets.”
“I know yeah!”
It was a time when they cast their earnest gazes upon the indifferent sea.
“uh?”
One of them pulling the net let out a confused voice.
“What is that over there?”
“What do you mean?”
“Hey… can’t you see the boat over there?”
“This ship is innocent, so what are you doing?”
“Oh no. Over there! Those ships over there! Those things coming in over there!”
“huh?”
Those who were working straightened their bent backs and lifted their heads. Indeed, from a distance, the sight of dozens of huge ships heading towards the island was clearly visible.
“I…”
“That? That?”
Those who instantly realized who was on that boat became thoughtful and shouted.
“Turn your boat around!”
“Quick! Quickly move to the side! Don’t run into them!”
“But the net…”
“The net and the paddle! Quick!”
The fishing boats all threw away the nets they were pulling in and quickly scattered in all directions. After a while, large ships crossed the sea route they had opened.
The fishermen were trembling with fear and watched the passing boats. I saw a huge flag hanging on the ship. Embroidered in red on the huge flag was the word Pae (覇).
“Sapae-ryeon…”
“No way, those guys…”
It’s not the first time they’ve seen Sapae-ryeon’s ship. For three years now, Sapae-ryeon’s ships have been patrolling the sea and monitoring Haenam.
However, it was literally just a surveillance ship, and it was the first time that a fleet of this size came to Haenam under the flag of the Sapae-ryeon.
Those who knew what this meant looked at the ships moving away with despair.
“…please.”
It felt like the strong smell of blood was already reaching my nose.
(Lord*I-Si*Yeo)
“What about the report?”
“Yes, soldier! According to what those watching the island say, it appears that no one has escaped the island.”
Hu Jiaming nodded lightly.
“Are you wise or foolish?”
You may not be able to tell. But if you sit still, nothing will change. After all, when an
ordinary person reaches a road that is blocked on all sides, he or she sits there rather than trying to open the way. So.
“Still no movement?”
“So far, yes.”
A sneer flashed through Hu Jiaming’s eyes.
“You’re not a good person to use. “Haenam’s Jangmun India.”
From the Haenam faction’s point of view, the option of leaving the island by boat is not a good one. No matter where they go, they cannot escape the net that Hu Jiamyeong has spread. In the end, what they face is only a more miserable death. However
, …
“If we had engaged in a naval battle, there would have been some possibility.”
The only thing that Hu Jiaming was worried about was that they would drive their ships and fight. No matter how great the warriors were, it would be difficult for them to display their skills if they were on each other’s ships. Since the bandits of the Maninbang are not familiar with handcraft, their odds of winning must have gone up.
‘If I had been able to bring the Surochae guys, I wouldn’t have had to worry about even this…’
But in reality, that is not easy.
In the face of the confrontation with those political faction guys, Surochae It is absolutely necessary. Also, the decrease in the number of troops in the waterway will be noticeable in some way and will cause a great deal of damage. “It doesn’t matter.
”
It will only be a little annoying if they start a naval battle anyway. Of course,
it would be good to be fully prepared, but Sometimes speed is more important than perfection. In Hu Ga-myeong’s judgment, what was important in this case was speed rather than perfection.
“How much time is left?”
“We’ll arrive within half an hour.”
“What’s the distance from the coast to Mt. Oji? ”
“If you advance at full speed, you can reach it within an hour’s time.”
“It’s an hour and a half… Two hours’ length is enough.”
Hu Jiaming’s eyes were languid as he stared at the sea. But his head was still at this moment. He was quickly sorting out the situation.
It was a task that Jang Il-so had entrusted to him. Not even an inch of negligence is allowed.
“Given the tendencies of Haenam Jang Mun-in, he would have camped at the main mountain and wait for us. With the prose door wide open.” ”
…Would you really be that complacent?”
“It’s not that you’re complacent, it’s that you take it for granted. The thoughts of those from political factions are sometimes so strange that they are ridiculous. It’s so difficult for us to understand.”
Those who think it’s cool to fight and die from the front according to their skills. It is a characteristic of the central political faction that this tendency in particular gets worse as the crisis escalates. Only recently, a volcano-like special
species has emerged, and that is what has happened. It feels strange. Not long ago, most of the central political factions were like that.
So, from the point of view of the four factions, it is absurd.
If the four factions are less skilled than the opponent, the ‘result’ is that they win by using poison, setting traps, or even taking hostages. Because he thought it was natural to create a.
“Soldier.”
Hu Jia-ming turned his gaze to the voice calling from the side.
“Was Lian Zhou’s order to erase that island?” Hearing the question, Hu Jia-
myeong ’s face was slightly distorted.
How many times do I have to tell you to even pretend to understand? The only thing that needs to be erased is the Haenam faction.”
“Of course I know. What I’m asking is what to do with those who are headed there and not from the Haenam faction.”
It was a cold voice. Ho Jiamyeong let out a long sigh.
“That won’t happen, Blood Sword Danju.”
“You’ll have to see that to know. .”
Hu Jiaming’s eyes narrowed in disapproval.
He has no problem controlling a major lord level, but it is impossible to completely suppress a minor lord level, either by force or power. Especially when he acts alone like this. That is, when moving.
That’s because the family name did not possess strong military force compared to the power in the room. Although
he was high in rank, they were high in power. Therefore, they had no choice but to maintain a horizontal relationship to some extent.
Of course, the family name was overused . If they don’t try to push him, they also won’t be able to do anything to him who is under Jang Il-so’s protection…
“The children were tired after coming a long way. If we go back without seeing blood, there might be a riot on land.”
“You’re not the Blood Swordsman, are you?”
“Let’s not deny it in particular.”
A sigh escaped Hu Jia-myeong’s mouth.
“Just do it in moderation. So that you don’t get angry.”
“I’ll try my best.”
After finishing speaking, Goyang, the head of the Blood Sword Dan, coolly turned and walked away. As if he didn’t want to stay with Ho Ga-myeong for even a second longer. Looking at Goe-yang’s back, Ho Ga-myeong said
, He frowned.
‘Every one of them…’
No matter how hard he tried, the moment they got even a little away from Jang Il-so, their vicious nature was revealed. They
were maniacs who could not handle even the bloodthirsty faction and would be labeled as public enemies. They were the people of all people. The fact that they had the greatest power was Maninbang’s greatest strength and at the same time its greatest weakness.
Their power made Maninbang the loser of Guangdong in a short period of time after meeting Jang Il-so, but on the other hand, their uncontrollable ferocity prevented them from dividing Maninbang’s power. Because we made it impossible.
The only person in the world who can put a leash on them is Jang Il-so. Even the name of Hu Jia-myeong, who is in name and reality the second best man in the world, does not work for them. All we can do is to moderately coax them to move. “Huh
.
” It’s annoying and annoying, but that’s all. Hu Jiaming’s gaze turned towards Haenam Island.
‘But it will literally be a disaster for them.’
It seemed like the blood-soaked sight of Haenam Island was already visible.
“Maintain speed as much as possible.”
“Yes!”
After receiving Hu Jia-ming’s order, the fleet accelerated further and advanced toward Haenam at full speed.
⁂ ⁂ ⁂
“Hurry!”
“Yes!” Death penalty!”
Haenam’s disciples ran around until their feet were sweating, digging holes in the bottom of the ship anchored on the shore. Kwak Hwan-so watched anxiously. “Will it be done in time?” Cheongmyeong asked, and he
said
, He looked away and answered,
“I’m working on it right now.”
“I think it would be better to just destroy it rather than waste time.”
“The enemies aren’t stupid either. If you arrive at the shore and the ship is completely destroyed, you will guess that there is something out there.”
“Hmm.”
“Please believe me. We are people who live by boats. You can make it float on the water until the moment the enemies arrive, and then sink when they try to board the ship.” When
Cheongmyeong glanced at Lim So-byeong, he shrugged his shoulders and said,
“So, we shattered it to make it look like it was destroyed by a typhoon. I tried to take it down, but it definitely looks a little unnatural. This will be better.”
“Do the Sapa bastards have the brains to notice something like that?” ”
…Why do you view Sapa as a dog and a pig?”
“Why are you swearing at dogs and pigs? What crime are they guilty of?”
“…Did you at least have enemies with Sapa in your past life?”
“You sound strange. What kind of enmity do I have to bear for criticizing Sapa bastard? If you look at it objectively, they are worse than bugs.”
Lim So-byeong drooped his shoulders without saying a word. At that time, Namgung Do-wi approached with a puzzled look.
“But if this is going to be the case, wouldn’t it be better to destroy all the ships on the island? Why are only the ships on this coast…”
Lim So-byeong, who found a suitable scarecrow in the midst of being beaten verbally and unable to breathe, looked at Namgung Do-wi with an exaggeratedly surprised face.
“Wow, my God. An idea that even Sapa won’t do.”
“…Yes?”
“If we destroy all the ships, won’t the feet of the Maninbang bastards who landed will be tied up?” ”
Isn’t that right?”
“The Sapa bastards who are so poisoned are going to Haenam Island. Let’s lock him up? So what will happen while they are repairing the ship?” ”
Uh…”
…Hell will probably unfold. They will take out their anger on the residents of Haenam.
Only then will he wonder what he has said. Namgung Dowi, who understood, quickly tried to correct it. But Lim So-byeong did not even give him a chance and dug into the gap.
“Oh, as expected, the Changcheon Namgung family has withstood the power of blood and death for hundreds of years. also! also! In order to accumulate such achievements, you have to regard human life as less important than an ant…”
“Everyone, shut up! That’s not what you meant!”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. That may be so. If you look at Sapa Imam, this is a very good idea. But if you’re going to do that, just take this opportunity to transfer to a place that suits your aptitude…”
“What a ridiculous combination!” Can’t you just shut up!”
In the end, seeing Namgung Do-wi grappling with Lim So-byeong, the party leader shook his head.
That guy has also become very foul-mouthed.
But it was really strange when I looked at it. The two have a really bad relationship, but when you see them like this, it seems like they strangely get along well.
It was then.
“Uh…Hwasan Sword Association.”
“huh?”
Kwak Hwan-so, who was leading the disciples, hesitantly opened his mouth to Cheongmyeong.
“Can I ask you something?”
