Chapter 1477 The plan was sound. (2)
“…Where are you going?”
A tent so colorful that it is hard to believe it was erected in a field. Jang Il-so, sitting on a large chair in the deepest part of the tent, inevitably frowns.
“According to what we confirmed.”
Hu Jiaming, who was standing in front of him, looked unusually embarrassed and continued talking.
“The civilians of Hubei are lining up and moving to Shaanxi.”
“…Shanseo?”
“yes. And some civilians from northern Sichuan also went to Shaanxi….”
Hu Jiaming hesitated for a moment.
Neither the word ‘evacuation’ nor the word ‘escape’ are appropriate. At least from their perspective.
“…It appears that they are attempting to emigrate.”
A question appears in Jang Il-so’s eyes. Jang Il-so put down the glass he was holding on the table next to him and raised one hand to lightly rub his chin.
“You’re heading to Shaanxi?”
“yes.”
“why?”
“….”
Such a simple question. However, Hu Jiaming could not easily come up with an answer to that simple question. This was because he couldn’t even understand this.
“A pseudonym. Where are we now?”
“This is Zhang Jiajie.”
“okay. yes. We are in Zhangjiajie. If you want, you can attack either Hubei or Shaanxi. Is not it?”
“That’s right. Lord Ryeonju.”
“But… the place where the Hubuk guys pack up and take refuge is not Henam or Hebei, but Shaanxi?”
“….”
“Keuung.”
A groaning sound came out of Jang Il-so’s mouth.
“I don’t know what people who just dig in the ground are thinking. “Is it because they are stupid or because their thinking is different from ours?”
Jang Il-so sighed briefly.
In fact, how the civilians move is not particularly important in the current situation. What is important is the trend between Gupa Ilbang and Cheonwoomaeng. He just felt a little bad that something was happening that he didn’t expect.
“so. What are those bastards doing? My guys must have been embarrassed by the sudden influx of civilians. “You’ve been talking about something so far, so you can’t push it away, right?”
“That…”
“Hmm?”
When Hu Jiaming could not readily answer, Jang Ilso narrowed his eyebrows.
“…It is said that the Cheonwoo Maeng bastards are building a large number of pavilions in Hwaeum to accommodate refugees.”
“….”
Jang Il-so looked at Hu Jiaming with a bewildered face.
“Accepting?”
“yes. “Maybe it was prepared in advance…”
Ho Ji-myeong, who was hesitant to say his words, glanced at Jang Il-so. This is because I had no idea how Jang Il-so would take these words.
‘Why on earth are they doing this?’
Stupid worms who can’t even swing a sword. What on earth are you going to do by accepting these people?
Receiving refugees is never easy. Just keeping them alive and breathing consumes enormous amounts of grain and wealth. This is a path that those facing war cannot and should never choose.
But now, Cheon Woo-maeng was actively doing something that would only cause harm. It was as if they had gone crazy as a group.
‘Is this possible?’
Even if someone who was blinded by the two words ‘consultation’ strongly insisted on this, the owners of Cheonwoomaeng are not all fools, so what on earth were they thinking of going along with this absurd thing?
No matter how hard I tried to think about it, I couldn’t understand the situation itself.
However, because of that, I was able to clearly understand how this situation occurred.
“Hmm.”
Jang Il-so slumps slightly in his chair. Although his posture was extremely languid, his eyes were shining with an extremely gloomy light.
“Looking at the situation…”
“….”
Jang Il-so’s bright red lips twisted seductively.
“It seems like he has completely placed Cheonwoo-maeng in his hands.”
Hu Jiaming’s head bows slightly.
He also thinks the same way. There is no way to interpret this situation without making that judgment.
“Anyway, it’s difficult.”
Jang Il-so chuckled and laughed.
“I trampled on his hands and feet, but he came stabbing me in the back. “I laughed at him and said that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t do anything at the level of a single great disciple, but he suddenly took power into his hands.”
It was a laughing voice.
However, only the family name was known. The young smile in Jang Il-so’s voice is gradually fading as he continues speaking.
“Then he predicted this situation in advance…”
Jang Il-so stops talking. His eyes sank deeper and deeper.
“No… no. It’s probably not a prediction. It’s not about predicting and preparing. “It must have been induced to be like this.”
“….”
Jang Il-so, who seemed to be thinking about something, immediately stretched out his hand and picked up a glass of alcohol placed on the table. Then, with a more relaxed expression, he takes a sip of the alcohol in his glass.
Hu Jiaming, who was watching the scene, cautiously opened his mouth.
“Ryeonju.”
“Speak.”
“Lord Ryeon, do you have any guesses? “What on earth were they thinking…”
Ho Jiamyeong suppressed the sighs that kept coming out.
The reason why that Plum Blossom Demon is terrible is not because he is crazy. The real reason that guy was terrible was because he was a ‘crazy guy who couldn’t be left alone.’
“Hmm.”
When asked by Ho Ga-myeong, Jang Il-so looks directly at Ho Ga-myeong. And at that moment, his calm eyes gently curve like the moon at the end of the year.
“A pseudonym.”
“yes. Lord Ryeonju.”
“Do we really need to worry about that?”
“…yes?”
Man Ho Ga-myeong reflexively asks that absurd question and lowers his head slightly in surprise. Jang Il-so, who saw that, smiled and continued.
“For us, this is all just fun, but there are some people who have caught fire in their own feet.”
“Ah….”
Old file one room.
Certainly, they are the ones who will be most embarrassed by the current trend.
For Sapae-ryeon, it is just a matter of the civilians of Hubei moving to Shaanxi, but for Gu-pa-il-bang, the people they were protecting are leaving that protection and going to receive the protection of Cheonwoo-maeng.
Could there be a greater humiliation from the point of view of Shaolin, the nine-file-one-bang group?
“They are probably going through a lot of trouble right now, so just release some people. “Let’s see what they find out.”
“I understand what you mean. Lord Ryeonju.”
Hu Jiaming nodded as if he understood.
“okay. “Go out and see.”
“yes. then.”
Hu Jiaming bowed his head deeply and left the tent.
Jang Il-so, left alone in the tent he left, quietly lowers his gaze and looks at the image floating on his glass. A white-faced man dressed like a clown was looking at him mockingly.
“It’s a pity. Looks like you still don’t know. “Are you ignoring me even though you know?”
Jang Il-so tilts his head upward. His slightly hazy eyes stared blankly at the patternless ceiling of the tent.
“The world is not a very nice place. “If you give like that, you will get nothing in return.”
Good for him. For sure.
Because the mistakes the other person makes are of great benefit to him. If what his head says, he deserves to be happy.
But Jang Il-so could not do that.
It feels like an unidentifiable feeling of tightness is slowly constricting his chest.
“…It’s a pain in the ass. “Bring me more alcohol.”
“yes!”
The quarrelmen quickly arrive with drinks.
Jang Il-so’s hand holding the bottle of liquor was a little rougher than usual.

“Well, shouldn’t we do something?”
“….”
“Director. Now it’s not just the poor… “It is said that those behaving appropriately in Hubei are also heading to Shaanxi one by one.”
“….”
“Director. “You shouldn’t be doing this, what can you do?”
“Then what should I do?”
“yes?”
“Then should we at least point a spear or knife at those who are leaving on their own and threaten them to stay here?”
Jong-ri-hyeong closed his mouth like a clam.
What Pengyeop said was right. They are neither a coffin nor an imperial palace. There is no justification or authority to stop the civilians. But you’re not saying this because you don’t know that, right?
“I don’t see it as a particularly bad situation.”
“Lord Panga. “What is that…?”
“They are of no help in the war anyway. “There is no reason to refuse to take care of such people.”
“But… that’s true.”
“These are people who need to be protected at least formally. Without them, our range of movement will significantly expand. “The important thing now is to unite the small and medium-sized factions, not the common people who do not know how to wield a sword.”
Zhongli-hyung closed his mouth.
He knows it too. There is nothing wrong with what Pangyeop said. That all of this is only for their benefit.
Still, he couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
‘Is this really something that can be seen?’
The civilians leave them. No, the civilians were abandoning them. Are you saying you really don’t know how strange this situation is?
The political faction is a group of people who learn martial arts to protect the powerless. But aren’t the powerless people they are supposed to protect now once again refusing their protection?
Is it really okay to ignore this situation where the guests have changed?
“Amitabha Buddha.”
At that moment, a calm voice of disapproval is heard from the court.
“It’s not a very pleasant thing. “How can it be a good thing for the common people to believe in Cheon-woo-maeng more than in Gu-pa-il-bang?”
“That’s what I meant.”
“but.”
The court looked at Zhong Li-hyung with calm eyes.
“It’s an exhibition now. “It is time to consider practicality, not feelings.”
“….”
“As Lord Paengga said, if you only think about practicality, it might not be such a bad thing.”
At those words, Jong-ri-hyeong sighed deeply.
Is he really so stupid that he doesn’t understand this situation?
“First of all, you can’t just watch like this, so you two should ask your disciples to persuade those who are leaving. “We must emphasize that it is safer here than Shaanxi.”
“…I will do that.”
“And… if there is someone in a difficult situation, let’s help them by releasing some of the military supplies we have stored up. “You have to show some sincerity.”
“That’s…”
“That’s a good idea! “Bangjang!”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
The court looked at Zhongli-hyung and nodded. Pengyeop looked slightly dissatisfied, but did not necessarily object to the court’s words.
“Anyway, depending on how you think about it, it’s not necessarily bad news. On the contrary, if you look at it objectively, it may be a pretty good situation.”
“yes? “Why do you think so, boss?”
“Because they are blind.”
Jong-ri-hyung frowns at that incomprehensible remark. The court, seeing that expression, burst into laughter.
“As you know, aren’t Cheonwoo-meng people who can’t stay still even for a moment?”
“That’s right.”
To be exact, it is not Cheonwoo-maeng. Cheongmyeong of Hwasan Sword Association is like that.
“I was surprised and embarrassed when I first saw this situation, but now I consider it fortunate. If it weren’t for the refugees, Chen Wu-meng would have definitely done something strange. “Like the recent attack on Sacheon or the previous trip to Haenam.”
“Ah…”
“But I probably won’t be able to afford that now. They too will be busy dealing with refugees. “If you think about it that way, wouldn’t it be better to deal with them now that they are stranded in Shaanxi?”
“Hmm. “Definitely…”
Zhonglihyeong and Pengyeop nodded at the same time.
What was happening itself was very strange, but thanks to this, the uncertainty that Chun Yu-maeng had was clearly resolved.
The two people understood what they meant and the court chaired the class and smiled softly.
“If there are any shortcomings, they can be corrected after the war is won. “If there’s anything you’re lacking, think about it and fill it in, but now let’s focus on what you need to do.”
“Yes, boss. “I will.”
“I will.”
After hearing the two people’s answers, the court quietly nods. Without realizing it, his gaze turned to the northwest, where Shaanxi was.
‘Hwasan Sword Association.’
The court’s eyes sink deeply.
‘What on earth are you planning to do with those civilians?’
But the court didn’t know.
Cheongmyeong is no longer with the civilians of Shaanxi.
❀ ❀ ❀
“Aaaah!”
“hey! Cheongmyeong! “That bird is too fast!”
“How do you chase that thing? “Does this make sense?”
“Where am I? Is this still Hanam? “Do you think I’m going to throw up already?”
Cheongmyeong’s face twists as he looks at the executioners who use evil words.
“Did these just scoop up blood porridge? Stop talking nonsense and catch up! “If you lag behind, I will personally rub your ankles!”
“Tell me at least give me blood!”
“No, you crazy person! How can a person follow a bird!”
“Run!”
Where the sun rises.
The five swords, accompanied by Cheongmyeong, advanced toward the distant eastern sky in a battle of war.
With everyone’s eyes in the world focused on Shaanxi far away.
