NIS Agent Tears the Japanese Empire Episode 226

A tall man leaves home and never returns (11)

“Commander, it appears that our armored vehicle unit has been surrounded by the enemy.”

“… … .”

Lee Beom-seok, who had been crossing the battlefield without stopping, glanced at the armored vehicles of the friendly forces surrounded below, then turned his head and looked back.

“… … .”

“Phew… … .”

“Huh… … .”

Everyone seemed a little out of breath, perhaps because they had been running at full speed.

‘Are the soldiers tired?’

Lee Beom-seok tilted the scales in his mind this way and that.

‘Is it right to defeat thousands of enemies with a mere few hundred cavalrymen and save several dozen of our own troops?’

‘Wouldn’t this just cause more damage?’

‘Is it right to abandon our allies?’

Although it was a brief moment, all sorts of thoughts raced through his head.

If all had gone according to plan, the armored vehicles should have been blasting through the Japanese formation by now, wreaking havoc inside.

However, one of the armored vehicles was spread out near the Japanese troops for some unknown reason, another was destroyed by enemy counterattack, and the last one was also emitting black smoke, possibly due to engine problems.

While the remaining intact vehicle was providing diligent cover, the Japanese army slowly surrounded the area and began fiercely attacking the armored vehicle.

‘If we attack the enemy now, do we have any chance of winning?’

Fortunately, the Japanese army did not yet notice the presence of the cavalry because the enemy’s attention was focused on the armored vehicles.

‘If we charge at once… … will we be able to defeat the enemy?’

Lee Beom-seok thought and thought again.

He didn’t have much time to worry.

But he couldn’t help but worry, as countless lives depended on his single command.

-Twinkle twinkle.

At that moment, something glittering in the Japanese camp caught his eye.

“Hmm… … ?”

As he scanned the Japanese camp with his eyes slightly covered, he saw a Japanese soldier holding a piece of mirror and shining sunlight on himself.

“hmm?”

Lee Beom-seok’s heart sank for a moment, as if the enemy had discovered their presence, but the soldier suddenly took something out of his bosom.

A long, red cylinder… … with a long string at the end… … .

“dynamite?”

“Huh? You mean dynamite?”

Without a moment’s hesitation, the soldier lit the dynamite and threw it into the ranks of Japanese soldiers who were distracted by the armored car.

“!!!”

The soldier then pointed his finger in the other direction.

Lee Beom-seok looked in the direction the soldier was pointing… … . There, to anyone who saw it, was an officer who looked like he was of a fairly high rank.

His actions seemed as if he was telling the officer over there to catch him.

Only then did Lee Beom-seok realize who the soldier was.

“Teacher Lee… … !”

“This teacher? Is this teacher there?”

“… … There is no time to be like this.”

Lee Beom-seok lifted Gyeongseong No. 1 high.

So that even the soldiers at the very back of the line can be seen.

And then he screamed at the top of his lungs.

“I’m twenty-three years old. Everyone had a hard time following this young guy who was calling himself the leader. Right now, our troops are isolated down there and need our help, and I’m going down there to help them. Will you join me?”

Then the soldiers answered.

“yes!”

“Good! Since you are all illiterate, I won’t give you any complicated orders! If you see a Japanese person, shoot them! If they are our troops, save them! That’s all.”

His horse was startled by Lee Beom-seok’s shout and raised its front legs, causing a ruckus.

But even in the midst of all this, Lee Beom-seok turned his horse’s head without wavering at all, looked relaxed, and slowly went down the mountainside.

-Wow!!

Then, as if waiting for it, a huge explosion occurred among the Japanese soldiers, and flames rose up.

Lee Beom-seok and the cavalry jumped into the large fire.

* * *

“Ugh… … . What is this… … .”

“Ahhh… … .”

“Ugh… … .”

The sudden explosion killed and injured many soldiers.

“What? What’s going on!”

Lieutenant General Asakuno, who was leading the operation, looked back at his staff while calming down his horse, which was startled by the sudden explosion.

“It looks like a bomb has gone off… … !”

“What?! Did that armored vehicle over there blow itself up?!”

“Ah… … That doesn’t seem to be the case. Both of those cars are fine.”

“Then what?!”

“Ha, let me find out!”

“Find out quickly… … .”

Lieutenant General Asakuno, who was in the middle of giving orders, suddenly fell to the ground because of his horse’s rambling.

“Eww!”

“dismissal!”

Adjutants and staff members hurriedly rushed to Asakuno and supported him.

“Iiik… … ! This damned beast… … !”

Asakuno was furious and pulled out his pistol, trying to shoot the horse to death right away, but for some reason the horse was already dead.

“… … ?”

Asakuno looked towards the armored vehicle, but it was far enough away that he didn’t have to worry about a blind grenade hitting it.

‘what?’

This time, Asakuno opened his ears and looked around.

Then, a heavy sound that had been buried in the sounds of fierce battle began to be heard.

-Doo doo doo doo doo.

The heavy sound of horse hooves stamping the ground… … .

This was something he had heard so many times during his time at the military academy that it was drilled into his ears.

“Adjutant, have you heard that our cavalry is coming to reinforce us?”

“No. There isn’t.”

“Then what is this sound?”

“Sound… … Are you talking?”

The rough sound of horse hooves cutting through the snow was getting closer.

Asakuno looked around anxiously, and when he turned his head slightly to the side, he saw something running quickly between the bare trees on the snow-covered mountain.

At first I thought it was just a herd of wild beasts… … . There were too many of them to be just a herd of beasts.

Although it was a suspicious sight to anyone, Asakuno was half in doubt.

‘Did the armed group in the North, the Bulyeongseon, have cavalry?’

The armed groups in the North that he remembered were always short on funds and supplies, and they were large in numbers but did not have even a single proper gun.

Cavalry to those guys?

It was hard to believe.

And on the other hand.

‘There are armored vehicles, but are cavalry the best?’

I also had this thought.

But it was too late to make that decision.

“Capture the enemy general!”

“Catch the enemy leader!”

The Independence Army cavalry has already invaded our camp.

“Go, Your Majesty! It’s the enemy!”

“I can see it too.”

“Get out of here for now!”

“Avoiding the body? The enemy is few, and the allies are many. If I run away in fear of a handful of enemies, what will become of my dignity?”

In a situation where the enemy had intruded, Asakuno chose to fight instead of evading.

Since the cavalry that had invaded the friendly camp was small in number, and the friendly forces were large in number, he thought that he would be able to quickly quell the commotion and subdue the enemy.

And if I ran away from here, I would be ashamed to face the 1st Division Commander, Lieutenant General Ishimitsu, who had worked so hard to clear the way for me.

That’s why Asakuno sat down and gave the order to intercept.

“I won’t move an inch from here, so you go and block the enemy.”

“dismissal…….”

“hurry!”

* * *

The Japanese army camp fell into chaos again when the cavalry of the independence army also rushed in amid the chaos caused by the intrusion of armored vehicles.

“Keeeeeek!!!”

“Run away!!”

The soldiers who allowed the surprise attack from the rear immediately lost morale and fled, and the remaining soldiers tried to fight back by firing at the cavalry.

-Tutadadada.

“Ugh!”

“What?! Are they all armed with machine guns?!”

“What the heck!”

The overwhelming firepower of the cavalry armed with machine guns and submachine guns forced everyone to hide behind cover and not even be able to raise their heads properly.

As the soldiers all ran away in fear, the horses also gained momentum and bravely ran through the enemy lines, even though something was exploding and bullets were flying beside them.

“The division commander’s flag is over there! Everyone, follow me!”

Lee Beom-seok charged fiercely toward the division commander’s flag hanging in the most visible place in the Japanese army camp.

His goal is one.

The goal was to capture the enemy division commander or capture the enemy division flag.

This might not end the battle in one fell swoop, but it would at least significantly reduce the enemy’s morale.

“let’s go!!!”

The Independence Army cavalry charged straight toward the headquarters, firing their guns wildly, so the Japanese army was afraid and did not dare to come near.

A few brave men tried to block the way, but they too were swept away and crushed by the strong waves created by the independence army cavalry.

However, the cavalry did not suffer any damage at all.

The waves seem to lose their power as they crash against the rocks.

Each time the cavalry broke through the enemy’s defenses, their numbers dwindled.

But no one cared.

After all, wasn’t cavalry originally a branch that took damage and forced the enemy to suffer as much bloodshed as possible?

So, everyone gritted their teeth, jumped over the last barricade blocking their way, and stormed into the command center.

“Uh uh… … !”

“Stop it! Stop it!”

“We must protect the division commander! Everyone, stop him!”

Lee Beom-seok and his comrades saw high-ranking officers and several staff officers, rarely seen on the battlefield, shouting and pointing at the cavalry of the independence army.

And in the meantime, the general sits calmly and glares at himself.

‘It’s that guy.’

Lee Beom-seok shouted, pointing at the general with his hand, which was stained red with blood that had splattered here and there.

“That guy is the general! Capture him! Kill all the others who resist!”

The independence army carried out Lee Beom-seok’s orders very faithfully as they had done until now.

“Protect the general!”

“Everyone gather around! I mean, gather around and don’t run away!”

As the cavalry began to rampage through the headquarters, the soldiers could no longer bear it and began to slowly flee.

The officers tried to catch those soldiers, but they too were afraid and began to run away one by one.

Japanese soldiers elsewhere rushed to rescue the division commander, but it was already too late.

“Are you the general of this unit?”

“… … .”

Lee Beom-seok spoke to Asakuno in fluent Japanese in front of him.

“I am Major Lee Beom-seok, the commander of the Korean Independence Army Cavalry Battalion. Your safety is now in the hands of the Korean Independence Army Cavalry.”

“… … .”

“You will be treated as our captives… … .”

Asakuno was sitting with a sullen expression.

Lee Beom-seok tried to have the soldiers drag him away, but he held on to the spot, tensing up his whole body.

“This son of a bitch… … !”

Lee Beom-seok, excited by the heat of battle, put a gun to Asakuno’s head, but Asakuno only laughed at him instead.

“His Majesty the Emperor’s warriors never surrender to the enemy. It seems the Furuyoshi people of the peninsula have never heard of such a thing?”

“… … If it’s your wish to die, then I’ll let you do so.”

Lee Beom-seok pulled the trigger.

No, I tried to pull.

Until someone stopped him.

“for a moment.”

“?!”

A Japanese soldier stopped Lee Beom-seok.

The other soldiers were startled by his sudden appearance and aimed their guns at him.

“Oh, it’s me. Calm down.”

“This… …. Teacher? Are you really this teacher?”

“Yes, General Kim Jwa-jin’s hidden wife and children returned to Yeonil a while ago.”

“… … This is really the teacher.”

The enemy leader was clearly sitting here, and this teacher’s face looked exactly like the enemy leader.

No, if you look closely, there were a few other differences, but they were so subtle that you wouldn’t notice them unless you looked really closely.

“What’s going on up to here?”

“What happened? Of course I came to help.”

As the teacher spoke, he took something out of his pocket and held it in his hand.

* * *

“Hey Asakuno, do you know who I am?”

“… … It looks like an enemy spy who had infiltrated as an allied soldier.”

“Do you know who killed Governor Saito?”

“… … ?”

“That’s me.”

“gibberish!”

Asakuno was so surprised that he took a step back without realizing it.

“Hey, why is the ghost of Gyeongseong here!”

“Ha… … . Crap… … . That ghost again… … .”

“Hey, I heard that the ghost of Gyeongseong is definitely active in Gyeongseong… … .”

Asakuno had only heard of the existence of the Gyeongseong Ghost through rumors before, so he didn’t know why people were afraid of it… … But after meeting it in person, he finally realized.

‘This guy is real!’

During his time as a soldier, he met many famous people.

Among them, there were generals who won battles, serial killers who killed many people, brave soldiers, and compassionate politicians, etc… … I met many people in person.

But among them, he was the first person who gave me such a deep sense of despair that I felt like I was helpless, like a mouse standing before a tiger.

If he had met him without knowing anything about him, he would not have been afraid of the ghost of Gyeongseong.

“You know about me, so the story will go quickly.”

The ghost of Gyeongseong asked Asakuno while holding something black and square in his hand.

“From now on, we’ll take you. If you follow us, we’ll treat you well. If you resist… … . Hmm… … . You can imagine that.”

“… … .”

“Decide quickly, there’s no time.”

“The warriors of the Empire of Japan will not surrender… …!”

“Yeah, I knew it.”

-Phase jiggle.

“Grrrrrrr.”

The Ghost of Gyeongseong stuck an electric shock device into his neck.

Then Asakuno trembled and fell down foaming at the mouth.

The ghost of Gyeongseong took off Asakuno’s clothes one by one and then switched clothes with him.

And then.

“Take her quickly.”

“What about the teacher?”

“I’ll go back with the armored car guys over there.”

“Yes? Oh! Okay, I understand.”
