Episode 1256 You’ll figure it out. (1)
Pow! Pow!
Anchors the size of human bodies fell to the water one after another. The sound of the anchor colliding with the water spread across the shore like the sound of a cannon.
It was a sight that would make anyone who did not know what it meant inevitably shiver.
“Military! Anchorage is over.”
The person who hurriedly entered the cabin bowed down and reported. However, Hu Jiaming’s gaze as he looked at the ledger did not know how to move.
“hmm.”
After some time had passed, Hu Ga-myeong closed the ledger with quick movements.
chin.
He got up without any delay and walked out of the cabin. As I passed through the narrow gate, the view of the green island came into view.
The midfield is clearly different. However, Hu Jiaming walked away with an unimpressed expression.
I’m sorry.
Every time his feet moved, the deck of the ship creaked and screamed. He walked to the bow and quickly scanned the shore with emotionless eyes. And asked.
“What about the fishermen?”
“Everyone is so busy running away that no one seems to have reached the shore.”
“But those on the shore must have seen us.”
Hu Jiaming glanced at the ships anchored on the shore and opened his mouth.
“The Haenam faction will soon find out. Nothing good will come of leaving them on guard. Let’s disembark.”
“Yes military!”
The person who modestly lowered his head turned and shouted loudly.
“Haseooooooo!”
“yes!”
Those waiting on each ship quickly jumped overboard.
with a splash! with a splash!
As nearly a thousand people jumped into the sea at once, the blue sea surface was instantly covered with pure white foam. Those who got down ran forward in unison and gathered on the pure white sandy beach.
Hu Jiaming, who was looking at the scene with cold eyes, stepped on the bow of the boat and lightly launched himself onto the white sandy beach.
Straightening my back and turning my gaze, I saw a thousand warriors lined up in battle. He narrowed his eyes slightly.
After a while, the person who joined a little later bowed his head.
“Military!”
“You’re late.”
“I’m sorry.”
He briefly shook his head as if he didn’t like his nickname.
If any other faction had seen the scene unfolding on this coast, they would have been so embarrassed that they would have been speechless. In fact, their appearance now is so strict that they are closer to soldiers than strong men.
Of all the four sects in the world, only Maninbang can show this appearance.
However, even that appearance does not fit the family name of the household name.
“Military! We are ready! Order!”
“hmm.”
Hu Jiaming nodded.
In fact, if this number of people were waiting for their orders, anyone’s heart would naturally swell.
However, there was no trace of excitement in Hu Jiaming’s eyes. He just assesses the situation as calmly as usual.
“Are you advancing?”
“wait.”
Hu Jiaming held his left sleeve with his right hand and lightly rubbed it. He seemed to be lost in deep thought. And only after a while did he speak in a calm voice.
“That’s strange.”
“yes?”
“There’s so little to deal with.”
“yes?”
Munbang, who heard those words, asked as if he were puzzled.
“They probably didn’t expect us to come, so wouldn’t it be natural for them to be unprepared? Even if the fishermen had seen us, the news wouldn’t have reached the Haenam faction…” But Hu Jiaming shook his head and said coldly
.
“There are no footprints.”
“…yes?”
After hearing this, Hu Jia-myeong’s deputy, Wen Fang, looked at the pure white sandy beach once again. It was definitely the eldest son of the household name, and there were no traces of footprints here.
But why is that strange?
“Military. Isn’t it a good thing that there are no footprints?”
Hu Jiaming turned his head and glanced at the door.
“Good things?”
“Yes. Since this is proof that there were no people on this coast, doesn’t that mean they don’t know our whereabouts?”
Hu Jiaming slightly frowned.
“Isn’t it strange that there is an anchored ship but no footprints?”
“…ah!”
Only then did Munbang look back at the coast in surprise. Besides their ship, other ships were anchored. When a ship docks, it means that people have disembarked. However, there are no traces of people on this white sand beach.
It was definitely a strange thing.
“…Couldn’t it have been erased by the typhoon?”
“Sailors naturally repair their ships after a typhoon. If those repairing the ships had seen us, they would have run away quickly. If so, there should have been footprints left on the shore.”
“…”
“It’s unnatural.”
Hu Jiaming raised his head and looked at the island in front of him.
“So that means they knew we would come and dug a trap in advance… Would that island hillbilly be such a fool?”
Hu Jiaming slowly turned his gaze to Monbang. The cold in those two eyes made Munbang’s face turn white for an instant.
“The old file room seems funny.”
“Old soldier. That’s not it…”
“Do you know when a person is the ugliest?”
“Well…”
“It’s time to mistakenly believe that what you got by luck was achieved through your own skills.”
Munbang was silent as if he had nothing to say even if he opened his mouth. Hu Jiaming said in a cool voice.
“If it weren’t for the kindness of the Lord, these guys who would have ended up as mere scum of Guangdong are showing off their arrogance as if they were something, which means they have murderous intentions.”
Wenbang quickly bowed his head.
Hu Jiamyeong does not get angry about most things. He was more of a person who would just sigh and move on even if his subordinates were blatantly rude. It is not because people are kind. This is because Hoga-myeong’s theory is that it is better to have such guys than not have them.
But only one case is different.
The moment someone makes even the slightest blemish on Jang Il-so’s authority, Ho Ji-myeong changes from a cool-headed soldier to a reckless devil.
Since I knew this fact, I couldn’t help but be shocked.
“Old military! That was never my intention.”
“then?”
“It’s just that I was stupid and played carelessly with my mouth. How could the way of all people think that I gained what the Ark gave me! This is absolutely impossible.”
Hu Jiaming looked at the prostrate Wenbang in silence.
Even though the scorching sun was shining down, Munbang felt a chill running down his back.
“Get up.”
“yes!”
Munbang stood up without delay.
“This is one time.”
“Thank you soldier!”
Munbang shed a cold sweat and quickly lowered his head.
It may have seemed like just a common, mild reprimand, but Munbang knew it all too well. The fact that a little while ago he stepped into the gates of hell and escaped.
“What would you do if I did?”
He quickly changed the subject. There’s nothing good to see because his mistakes remain in Hu Jiaming’s mind.
“There must be a trap.”
Hu Ga-myeong looked at the thick bushes and spoke softly.
The coast is dazzlingly white and the grassland adjacent to it is extremely green. However, the bushes and mountains behind it were thicker and darker than those in the central plains.
If there was an ambush, it would definitely be there.
“Do you take a detour?”
“no.”
Hu Jiaming’s mouth was strangely distorted.
“If you dug a trap, you should go.”
Wenbang closed his mouth and watched the household name. Of course I had doubts, but I was in no position to ask questions back to Hu Jiaming right now.
“Do not mistake the mission, Munbang. The order we received is not simply to put down a plaque for the Haenam faction. It is to eradicate every single thing that uses the name Haenam.”
“Ah…”
“If you bypass the trap, the guys who were digging the trap will spread out in all directions like a swarm of bugs that have lost their homes. Then it will be a hassle to clean up after them.”
Hu Jiaming looked at the lush forest of Haenam with eyes that showed no particular emotion.
“It would be better if the things that need to be eradicated were gathered together. It would speed things up.”
“yes!”
“We are moving forward as scheduled. Dan!”
I looked back at the boat that Hu Ga-myeong had come on. He was silent for a moment and seemed to be contemplating, then opened his mouth again.
“Tell them to leave a spearman to guard the ship.”
His expression was almost indifferent.
“Cut off the retreat route is the most obvious tactic for those who pride themselves on knowing the art of war. Even if we lose the ship, it won’t be a problem, but it will be a hassle.”
“I will do as you command!”
“Eumjik-yeo.”
“yes!”
Munbang ran with all his might toward Changgui University. The relief of having survived despite making a mistake and another feeling of coldness swirled through my mind.
‘It was barely enough to deal with Dawi of Haenam…’
As Ho Jiamyeong said, Munbang may not have the right to feel proud of Maninbang’s power. However, it is an objective fact that Maninbang’s power overwhelms Haenam.
But now, Ho Ji-myeong is planning a strategy as if he is crossing a stone bridge while dealing with Haenam.
Because tigers do their best when catching rabbits?
It’s not like that. That’s why it’s scary.
The only thing on Hu Jiaming’s mind right now is how to perfectly fulfill Jang Ilso’s orders.
Going into a trap set by an enemy is not an expression of confidence that you can defeat the enemy without harm even if you jump into the trap.
In order to comply with Jang Il-so’s orders to quickly deal with Haenam, Ho Ji-myeong simply chose to eliminate the enemy more quickly, even if it meant taking some damage. The only thing that is important to Hu Jia-myeong is Jang Il-so’s orders.
That fact sent a chill down the back of the door.
‘You must never make a mistake in this matter.’
Munbang pledged again and raised his voice toward Changgui University.
(Lord*I-Si*Yeo)
“It’s moving!”
“Okay. Then… huh?”
Yunjong, who was watching the situation on the coast, opened his eyes and glanced back at Baekcheon.
“The troops are divided?”
Baekcheon blinked and checked the situation on the coast. Indeed, some of the enemy’s troops remained, positioning themselves as if to guard the anchored ship.
“Green Forest King?”
“Hmm.”
Lim So-byeong scratched his head with the tip of his fan and laughed.
“It looks like Ho Ga-myeong is giving Haenam a higher opinion than expected. Well, that’s just the way he is. He’s definitely a mind reader. That’s great.”
“Well, the plan went awry, so now is the time to just praise me calmly?”
“What are you going to do?”
Complaints rained down from all over.
“Oh really.”
Lim So-byeong distorted his face and got angry.
“Have these gentlemen been too concerned with their connections? Do you think that in a real war, everything will go smoothly as planned in advance? The basic rule is to prepare for each other and change moves from time to time!”
“So does this mean that you have now taken a beating from Hu Jiaming?”
“Does it mean you’ve been kicked out?”
“You mean you lost?”
“…bastards.”
Lim So-byeong gritted his teeth. Then Baekcheon asked again.
“So what do we do now?”
“There is no particular difference.”
Lim So-byeong said with a grin.
“As planned, we wait until the enemy gains enough distance… and then take the ship!”
“Who are they guarding?”
“Well…”
Lim So-byeong looked at the person who tilted his head.
“The sap grinder with the highest performance in the midfield will take care of it.”
Cheongmyeong, who had already drawn his sword, was staring intently at the Changguidae encamped on the coast. Everyone who saw that suddenly trembled. The sight of Cheongmyeong baring his teeth was truly creepy.
