The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 286

The follow-up to the war in Upper Shanxi proceeded quickly.

Jeok-saeng and Myung Se-chan were rather busier than before fighting Shanseo.

The speed at which work was handled accelerated when all the wild seedlings of the plantation pavilion, which was called the core of Haomun, were moved to Yeongbodang (the military department organized by Jeoksaeng) in Cheonungbang.

Thanks to that, I feel happy to see Yuzhang after a long time…

Anyway, as many people are crowded, the headquarters of the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce has become like an outpost of rebels or Jin Sapaecheon.

Temporarily built, the dwelling place of the leaders of Sapaecheon inside the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce.

Jeoksaeng searched the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce and found various illegal circumstances and brought them together.

“You have something to report?”

“…yes.”

The first thing Jeoksaeng took out was a letter made of antique material.

It was a scorpion from the Jeongmu-maeng, where the seal of the leader was stamped.

“You must have known that we hit the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce, right?”

“There was such a battle, but we can’t fool their eyes and ears forever.”

Jinmu nodded his head at Jeoksaeng’s words.

what is natural Jegal’s good-natured or old beggars don’t take it lightly.

There were many words written in the letter, but the core was one.

Breaking the Armistice Agreement.

“…Unfortunately, the political affairs department moved as expected.”

“Have you built a defense line north of Hanam?”

“yes. Namgung Muhyu of the political affairs Chilseong took over, and Peng Uibang became the manager and built a northward march. Shaolin Hwasan Jongnam Namgung Paengga shaman moved Zhuge and Yongbonggwan.”

Many are many.

Isn’t that the same as saying that if it’s a number like that, let’s fight right away?

By the way, even the shaman moved?

I was very hungry because I had some money.

The remote area is also wide. You’re polishing your sword in the middle of the mountain, so why are you joining the war?

It was surprising in many ways, but not too surprising.

To some extent, it was just as Jeoksaeng had predicted when preparing for the battle against Shanxi.

“At the border of southern Gangseo Province, the main body of the Jeongmu-maeng moved. Geomhye Byeok Un-yeong took over as chief and led four unmanned corps of the existing Hyeonmu, Jujak, Baekho, and Blueryong.”

“Hmm… Where is Gonghu?”

“Awaiting orders near Nanchang, Jiangxi.”

“Hmm…”

Jinmu rubbed his chin for a moment.

Damn kids, I’m going to eat my land, but why are they interfering?

Had I known this was going to happen, wouldn’t I have left Sejak, who is infiltrating the Jeongmu-maeng, alone?

It would have been a good fight in the past, but not now.

The current Jinmu was the lord of Sapaecheon, but also a disciple of a shaman.

I don’t know about other places, but it’s because it’s somehow uncomfortable for a shaman to be swept up in a war.

“For now, tell Gonghu to wait.”

“All right. And this…”

“…?”

“Among the items that the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce has been dealing with, it is related to Sapaecheon.”

“Why is this?”

“…The items are… children.”

“…what?”

Jeoksaeng was deeply surprised when he saw Jinmu’s expression terrifyingly changed at the word ‘children’.

It was Jinmu who always showed only a gentle side when dealing with his enemies.

But now it was different.

Just a moment ago, he had been sitting there with an expressionless expression, and in an instant, he was suffocating.

Jeoksaeng, unable to meet his gaze, fell on his knees low as if he had been cut by those eyes.

“Heavenly God… Excitement…”

“….”

Jeok-saeng gasped for breath and struggled to calm his boiling anger as the living quarters were filled to the point of stuffiness.

“Whoa… So? You mean that Si Pei-tian took the children and gave them to the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce?”

“…yes. Children abducted from Green Forest Bandit Metallurgical Party Heuksabang flowed into Sapaecheon, and Shanxi Chamber of Commerce paid for them with similar items….” “

Red life!”

When Jinmu looks at him with sharp eyes, Jeoksaeng swallows the horse at once.

“Children are not objects.”

“sorry. I made a mistake…”

Seeing Jinmu glaring at him in anger, Jeoksaeng put his head on the ground and apologized.

“What happened to the children dedicated to the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce?”

“That’s…”

“Tell me.”

“It seems to have moved somewhere with the top at times.”

“So where did you go!”

“That hasn’t been confirmed yet. Hao Wenju has given instructions to the beasts, so it will be revealed soon. We suspect that it was handed over to another palace power.”

“What about the numbers?”

“…the estimated number is over five hundred.”

“…five hundred?”

“yes. At least….”

“..”

In the meantime, at least.

I had heard stories of kidnapping children and trafficking people a long time ago, but I didn’t think it would be on this scale.

Yes, it can cause damage to private houses. You can also rip off the protection fee at the inn or the shop of the government.

It’s not something Jinmu likes, but Sapa has always been like that.

But this doesn’t work.

It was something I hadn’t thought of when I saw the metallurgical party accepting children instead of gambling debts.

At most, he vaguely guessed that he would play at the gambling house or play the role of a lookout for drainage in the back alley, just like he had been in his childhood a long time ago.

And since it was impossible to save all of them, he thought that he would take Sapaecheon and solve it gradually.

But it’s over five hundred.

They abducted children who live well and gave them to the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce to make up for the lack of funds.

Kidnapped children would have been taken without knowing where they were headed.

Since the treatment could not have been good, there must have been some children dying on the arduous journey, and those children must have been meaninglessly abandoned in the field to become food for animals.

Pudeudeuk.

Jinmu gritted his molars with a distorted expression.

“Yu Yuolcheong is crazy, but you’re still crazy.”

Jinmu’s hands were trembling slightly with anger.

“An enemy.”

“yes!”

In response to that bloody spirit, Jeoksaeng raised a nervous face and answered.

“How long do you think it will take to organize the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce?”

“According to Hao Munju, it should take at least ten days…”

“Long. Pull the seal.”

“…”

With a simple word, Jeok-saeng began to calculate various things in his head for a while.

“I will prepare to move within three days and three days.”

“Three days… good. Get everything ready in there. Hit the sappecheon right away.”

Right away? The Jeongmu-maeng is blocking them from entering Hanam?

However, as soon as the order announcing the start of the war was given, there was only one thing Jeoksaeng had to do.

“…I will draw up a plan to engage the Jeongmu-maeng.”

After pondering for a while at Jeoksaeng’s words, Jinmu shakes his head for some reason.

“no! There is no war between principalities.”

“yes? But they’ve already built camps…”

“Again, no war.”

“….”

“I will open the way for you.”

“…!”

At Jinmu’s words, Jeoksaeng raised his head.

What are you thinking? How do you plan to break through their camp and advance this large number of warriors to Sapaecheon?

However, Jeoksaeng was overwhelmed by his terrifying spirit and forgot about it for a while.

Jinmu is a swordless sword.

The water stream in Jungwon is divided into two.

the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.

The Yellow River encompasses the north and the Yangtze River runs through the central plains.

Compared to the Yangtze River, which the Murim people called Tongcheon-ha because it leads to the whole world, the Yellow River was slightly underestimated, but for those living in the north, the Yellow River was the most important place of life.

It was a farmer’s water for fattening grain for farmers and a treasure trove of life for fishermen.

However, a ferocious spirit settled in a part of the waterway.

With Changcheon Namgung Muhyu as the head, seven powers including the shaman of Jegal Sei and the warriors of Yongbongguan participated.

From the Sanmen Gorge to Kaifeng, the enormous water flow of the Yellow River, which stretches for a thousand li, could not be completely controlled.

However, in order for the rebel forces to wage an all-out war against the mainland of Sapaecheon, a large number of troops had to be moved, and the places where such troops could cross the waterway were inevitably very limited.

With the help of the opening, the Zhuge cooperation placed unmanned men in large and small docks located within the waterways, and floated boats in various places to watch over the river.

In addition, until the release of Yeongbo Luoyang’s Zhengzhou, soldiers were deployed focusing on five cities adjacent to the river so that the enemy could be organically defended as soon as it was discovered.

In order to prevent the so-called Sapaecheon rebellion from going south, the Northward advance of the Jeongmu-maeng was established.

Changcheon Namgung Muhyu led the warriors and undressed as a woman at the Jungbu Maeng Jeongbu, which is the center of the northern march.

“Hmm.”

Namgung Muhyu’s gaze, which was looking at the yellow waterway of the Yellow River through a wide open window with his hands behind his back, turned downward.

Numerous soldiers dispatched from the Jeongmu-maeng were building camps by the river in front of the Jeongju branch.

The sight of the huge number of unmanned soldiers moving was even majestic at first glance.

“Hot hot bro. It suits you quite well.”

“It’s good to get along…”

When Bukjin’s manager Peng Uibang smirked and said, Namgung Muhyu laughed and shuddered with humility.

“Looking at my older brother now, he should have become the leader in the first place. It’s not Cheol Ji-ryang, a hillbilly from Shandong Province.”

“…”

Namgung Muhyu did not interrupt Peng’s words.

“Think about it. The one who reached the level of the river first was also my older brother. But how could he be a swordsman? That is nonsense.”

“That person. haha.”

“Is it Yongbonggwan or the Inspection Corps… It’s obvious that they’re trying to maintain their power?”

“Stop it. I’m afraid others will hear it.”

“Isn’t that wrong? What did he do when he became the leader? Look at the situation now.”

“….”

“If my brother had become the leader, would the janitors named Goong have thought of planting a trinket in the political sphere? What about Sapaecheon? These are the ones that should have been removed from Hanam already.”

“haha.”

Namgoong Muhyu just laughed.

But even without saying a word, he was thinking the same thing as Peng’s room.

Namgung Muhyu hated seeing Cheol Ji-liang’s reputation higher than himself, who had lived as a loser in Anhui for a long time.

He resigned from the position of head of the family and became an old man in the back room while training younger students, but he did not like being respected by everyone.

Family and power. Why is he, who is better than Cheol Ji-ryang, always chasing his shadow?

That’s why I didn’t always want the Jeongmu-maeng to have more power than the council.

“Please take this opportunity to inform them. Let’s wipe out all the Sapas crossing the Yellow River, and then destroy their castles in Tianzhong Mountain.”

“….”

“Isn’t there anything we can’t do if my brother and I join forces?”

It makes sense.

It has been more than forty years since the bastard of Hyukryeonmugang settled down in Mt. Cheonjung, which had long been the domain of political factions.

It was always like a thorn in the eye, but it was a time when no one could drive them out because the Four Emperors were so strong.

But now that he’s dead, engulfed in civil war, they’ve been split in half.

Ye-hwa, a patriarch belonging to the rebel faction. If you take care of these three, it won’t be too difficult to destroy Yuyuecheong, which has lost its power.

rather it went well

Perhaps it was an opportunity that came to him only in his later years.

The eyes and ears of the rightists were watching them.

It is self-evident that if you take this opportunity to destroy Sapaecheon, your prestige will rise to an inexplicable level.

Instead of swordsman Cheoljiyang, he achieved an achievement unprecedented in history and modern times.

“First of all, you don’t know when the enemy will come, so tell Ye Ha to strengthen your defenses. Let’s think about the rest after stopping the rebels from Sapaecheon.”

“Yes brother!”

After receiving the command, Peng’s room ran outside, and Namgung Muhyu looked at the Yellow River out of the window happily alone.
