Namgung Cheonjon - Chapter 249

Episode 249

Like Namgungju, the leader of the Murim Alliance, Museonghu, the military commander appointed by the Sa Sa-ryeon, had a clear vision of the current situation.

A very smooth battle.

The warriors of the Sahuryun easily penetrated deep into the enemy’s positions, and each time they did so, the Murim Alliance repeatedly retreated.

It’s truly smooth sailing.

It’s a flawless flow.

However, unlike others, Museonghu did not let down his guard.

‘It is true that the current situation is favoring the Sa-Sa-Ryeon side. However, that doesn’t mean you can feel at ease.’

Although it is true that the Murim Alliance are a group of people who have settled for peace, their size is something that cannot be ignored.

Right now, they’re so scared that they can’t deal with it properly, and the more they push and pressure them, the more poisonous the Murim Alliance will slowly build up.

From then on, I could see it as the real beginning.

The more you lose, the more fiercely you will fight back.

Museonghu silently crossed his legs.

“Of course, that was when summer arrived, not now.”

According to Museonghu’s calculations, the time for the Murim League to complete its reorganization is summer.

No matter how quickly Maeng prepares for Daejeon, he will have to wait until summer.

This was the common belief, and not only Lady Wu Seong but also the elders of the Sahuryun thought so.

In other words, until then, you can safely attack the Murim Alliance unilaterally.

Mu Seonghu chuckled as he thought about the majors he could obtain during that time.

of course… The best defense is attack, but conversely, you can attack from the front… .

“Well, they’re not going to go crazy and immediately send a special force to attack our camp.”

In order to do that, Meng’s troops were all gathered from this side.

Unless they did something as a group, there was no such possibility.

Yes, unless something goes wrong.

‘There’s no way a soldier we don’t know will suddenly pop out here.’

In that sense, I was just about to relax.

Someone hurriedly came in front of him.

“I told you to come in!”

“Oh, that’s… “It’s urgent!!”

“What… ?”

Museonghu quickly stood up.

Is there a situation where urgent news may come suddenly? I just recently thought that such a thing could not possibly exist, but what is this…? .

When I asked with my eyes what was going on, the messenger who came to deliver the news was embarrassed.

“What’s going on?”

“Well, that is…” .”

“hurry!”

“… “We are under attack.”

It didn’t take long before I was dumbfounded.

However, no matter his embarrassment, the messenger continued speaking softly.

“Our positions are being breached by unidentified soldiers. “I understand that it came quite close to here.”

“wait. … “What on earth was the sentry doing while the enemies were coming?”

When questioned about the mistake, the messenger kept his mouth shut.

When Museonghu’s sharp eyes met him, he started speaking gibberish.

“I’m not sure about that, but… .”

“Not sure?”

“I think maybe it all happened before I could tell you the news. “It looks like the enemy has highly skilled assassins and archers!”

“Is that what you’re saying!!”

Wu Shenghu shouted loudly and hit the table.

The bowl on the table shook and spilled all its contents.

The messenger, who was watching the tea flowing, closed his mouth.

Museonghu then turned his back and gritted his teeth.

No matter what happened, once the enemy came, we had to respond.

‘I don’t know who it is, but I will hurt your nose badly. If they are a unit of the Murim Alliance, this decision can be easily backed off.’

If it had been them who had attacked, it could not have been a huge misjudgment.

Since the Murim Alliance was not reorganized, they must have brought in unprepared troops in their haste.

I don’t know how such a ragtag bunch got here, but it seemed like the perfect place to launch a counterattack.

‘Namgoongju, it’s definitely him. Rather, it worked out well.’

If you were to pick the most difficult member of the political faction, it would definitely be Namgung Ju.

If I could just kill him here, the damage I’d seen so far wasn’t that big of a deal.

With that in mind, Wu Seonghu took his sword and went out, and it wasn’t long before he was able to confirm the true identity of the enemy army.

“Hey, are you the commander of the Sahuryun?”

Even though the surname Namgung was the same, it was not Namgungju that Mu Seonghu had thought.

Again, the opposite.

“You, you… .”

“This is it… If you look at what has come out here, he still seems like a guy who does quite a bit in the post-mortem group, but it’s like this. “Eh.”

Namgunghyun.

He, who was called the hunting dog of the Namgung family, arrived here.

By leading numerous armies.

Their clothes and swords were stained with the blood of those presumed to be members of the Sahuryeon.

It has a magnificent appearance that looks as if it is about to end.

‘I’m thinking of ending here!’

When Moo Seong-hu heightened the tension, Namgoong-hyeon’s thoughts were completely different.

‘Finish it quickly and we will retreat and kill the soldiers.’

Namgoonghyeon grinned and said that everything was going according to plan.

⁎⁎⁎

A little while ago, when Ha Soo-yeon and Nam Gung-hyeon agreed.

Mo Yong-yeon quietly asked from the side.

“Okay, so if we change the situation now, how are we going to win?”

Reversing the current situation of repeated retreat.

I understand that for that to happen, a dramatic victory is needed for the demoralized warriors of the Murim Alliance.

However, there was one big blind spot in Namgoonghyeon’s words.

‘We and the Murim Alliance are completely separate.’

If Namgunghyeon was going to give the Murim Alliance victory, there was no reason to act individually.

It would be better to fight as an axis of the alliance.

Then, the victory of Namgung-hyeon becomes the victory of the Murim Alliance, and the victory of the alliance becomes the victory of Namgung-hyeon.

However, Namgung-hyeon shook his head excitedly at Mo Yong-yeon’s words.

“This is why I can’t communicate with a child…” .”

“I can’t talk. “Ehyo.”

The corner of Mo Yong-yeon’s mouth twitched when even Ha Soo-yeon, who usually seemed funny, treated her like a fool.

I can’t believe that she, who was praised as a brilliant mind in her own way, is treated like a fool like this.

After a moment of trembling in his shoulders, Namgoonghyun came up with an answer.

“We don’t want to listen to them under Meng’s umbrella. So there are bound to be restrictions, and our goals and ours may not be aligned.”

“We’re just trying to utilize the power appropriately.”

“That’s what I’m saying. It would have been better if we had won, but how could that give Meng a win? .”

Nam Gung-hyeon chuckled at Mo Yong-yeon’s question.

Everyone, not just Mo Yong-yeon, seemed to know this, but some people were looking at Nam Gung-hyeon with a feeling of disbelief.

“… “Does it elicit action?”

“answer.”

Hyeonso rubbed his chin.

What Namgunghyeon planned was relatively simple.

There was nothing to think about difficultly, and I had no intention of aligning with the Murim Alliance from the beginning.

‘We take the lead and shape the flow.’

Namgunghyeon raids Sahuryeon first, thereby encouraging the natural participation of the Murim Alliance.

That was the method established by Namgoong Hyun.

A third party suddenly appears, and Sa Sa-ryeon is put on the defensive as if embarrassed.

Of course, this situation would be unexpected even for the Murimmaeng, but what if Sahuryeon shows a loophole behind his back?

If you can bite that thing, victory is a sure thing… What if you see an incredibly appetizing opportunity?

Even if it’s a bit questionable… .

‘There is no option to avoid it.’

Being tired of losing means, in other words, that you desperately need victory.

If Namgung-hyeon sets a trend, Namgung-ju will quickly ask for it even though he knows it is someone else’s intention.

“… It’s a game changer in the true sense of the word. “I think I understand.”

“Our role is to set the stage and get out of the way. The real thing is the Murim Alliance.”

It is as if Namgung-hyeon is pretending to inflict a serious blow on Sa Sa-ryeon at once, but in reality, it is the Murim League that is moving behind the scenes.

The more attention is drawn to Namgung-hyeon, the more lax the rear defenses of Sa Sa-ryeon will become.

Because it would be the Murim Alliance that would be aiming for that.

‘Then victory will naturally go to the Murim Alliance.’

The Murim League, which bites the back of the Sahuryeon, which only sees loopholes, wins.

This is also a natural procedure since Namgoong Hyun acts as bait.

And by the time the commander of the Sahuryeon realized that he had been defeated… .

Smirking, Namgoonghyun smiled evilly.

Namgoong Hyun becomes infinitely more vicious and cunning when dealing with Sapa.

Ha Soo-yeon was surprised to see that they were already curious about their expressions.

“We escaped right away without any damage.”

“Hit and run… indeed.”

Both victory and loss are passed on to the Murim Alliance.

Namgoong-Hyeon just takes on the role of laying the groundwork and that’s it.

It is infinitely fragile, and thus brings about maximum utility.

When everyone realized that and got goosebumps all over their bodies, Namgoong Hyun crossed his arms.

“Okay, all we have to do is knead the board. “Just knead the plate.”

Who can know?

Even the defeated Sahuryeondo and the victorious Murim Alliance.

The fact that the one who actually dominated the battlefield was Namgoonghyeon, who didn’t seem to be of much help.

“Okay, then you understand? “The most important thing in this operation is to surprise the Sahuryeon bastards.”

“Inducing the Murim Alliance to take action.”

Mo Yong-yeon also nodded as if she understood what was said at this point.

“good. “I’m finally making sense.”

After Namgung-hyeon answered, Mo Yong-yeon asked the question again.

“Okay, then we’ll need an extremely sharp awl to surprise Sahuryeon and a messenger to inform the Murim League of the situation. “Who will play that role?”

In order to dominate the game, there was a need to show something that exceeded everyone’s expectations.

Be it intellect, brute force, or whatever.

Mo Yong-yeon opened her blurred eyes.

‘You probably need both. Even though it may seem easy to say, it is not that simple.’

Lord Namgung and the generals of the Sahuryeon will also join hands.

That’s why it’s there.

However, in order for Namgoong-hyeon’s plan to come true, it is necessary to play on top of both of their heads.

“It’s simple. First of all, I am the one who will surprise the Sahuryeon.”

Namgung-hyeon was perfect for the role of Hyeon-gyeong’s expert and awl.

“Even because this sword is in my hand, Sasharyun has no choice but to be even more wary of me.”

Changcheonjigeom (蒼天之劍), the treasured sword of the Nangong First Sword that once led to the defeat of the Black Swordsman.

For Sapa, it gave a sense of weight that was almost like fear.

If Namgung-hyeon shows off his Changcheonjigeom while riding a horse, Sa Sa-ryeon has no choice but to be overly cautious.

Mo Yong-yeon was shocked and asked if he had calculated that far.

‘I really use everything that’s available.’

I never thought I would even use a sword. Indeed, the idea itself is unique.

No, that’s probably the only way he can emerge as an opponent of the Sahuryeon.

“And the messenger who delivers the news is Ugae.”

“Eh? “You mean me?”

He blinked, saying he had no idea Woogae would give him the role.

However, Namgoonghyun shrugged his shoulders and said it was natural.

“Which of us will arouse less suspicion when we appear before our father, Namgoongju?”

“Yeah… .”

“In the past, in Daejeon, he led a group of 100,000 monks and asked for information, throwing his life away like stubble.”

At those words, Woogae widened his eyes.

It was all the more so because I had no idea that Namgoonghyeon would value openness so highly.

“This role was yours from the beginning. Rain cover. “Can you do it?”

Woogae burst out laughing at Namgoonghyun’s words.

“… Please leave it to me as many times as you want. “I’m willing to do it.”
