Episode 300. Counterattack (3)

An ominous atmosphere hung over Gunsanchae, which had begun a siege against the attack of Jegal Se-ga.

The enemy hid all over the island and watched day and night for enemies sneaking in from outside, and surveillance ships frequently patrolled the military camp.

* * *

“How is it?”

“Fortunately, there is no danger to his life. However, we cannot leave him for long. We are running low on medicinal herbs, so we will have to quickly get to land… … .”

Nam Gwang-ro’s brow furrows at Seong Il-kwang’s words.

Lying in front of them was Gongsun Cheng, wrapped tightly in cloth.

“Those damn Jegal Se-ga bastards… … .”

Nam Gwang-ro recalled the moment when they attacked the Dongjeongho branch of Danggata.

When Nam Gwang-ro heard the news that Jegal Se-ga’s unmanned force had appeared, he hurried to the Dangga-ta branch.

After Dang Yong-cheon returned to his hometown, there were only a few people left to guard it.

Most of them did not know martial arts.

The generals of Danggata, who were well versed in the arts and sciences, and Gongsun Seung.

When I arrived at the Danggata branch with a worried heart, the first thing I saw was the warriors of the Zhuge family surrounding the garden, and a white flag fluttering at the main gate.

It was rather fortunate.

Because if they have already surrendered, there will be no further damage.

Also, it was like giving up the branch, so he couldn’t help it.

Because that’s what Dangga-ta means.

But I couldn’t tolerate what happened afterwards, so I ended up intervening.

“Zhuge Wuhui, that bastard who deserves to be torn to pieces… … .”

Just thinking about it makes me angry.

Zhuge Wuhui, who had brought the warriors of the Zhuge family, forcibly dragged out Gongsun Cheng, who had already surrendered, and made him kneel before him and bow his head.

Even though there was no battle, isn’t he already a defeated general?

Even the Safaines would rather give death than inflict such shame on the enemy general.

It was something that an unmanned person should never do.

Nam Gwang-ro, who could not control his anger, questioned the behavior of Jegal Se-ga and the dispute quickly escalated into war.

“That guy was planning to get rid of us from the beginning.”

“yes?”

“Zhuge Changyun, that must be his scheme. He set the stage for us to win and then dragged us in.”

“… … .”

“It was only one. As soon as the fight started, that guy named Jegal Wu-Hui was kicked out.”

Nam Gwang-ro gritted his teeth and muttered.

“They must have had a support team waiting at the branch near the Yangtze River from the beginning. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have arrived so quickly.”

“… … .”

“And what? You’re going to clean up the waterways with those water droplets? This crazy guy… … It’s been years since we signed a contract with the party and stopped doing business.”

“What can I do? It’s already irreversible.”

“X-boy.”

“Right now, it’s us, but there are other waters in the Yangtze River that are also a problem. Hasn’t there been any other contact since the news of the Zhuge Shi family’s unmanned force’s raid?”

“Fuck. All I can do is wait for the general manager to step forward.”

“Shall we step forward and wait?”

“… … .”

“Don’t you know the personality of the CEO?”

“You idiot.”

“why?”

“Stop it.”

“What are you stopping for? There’s no way the general debt collector would come forward. After all, the reason for this incident was that the general debt collector destroyed one of the Jegal Se family’s unmanned units. Would the cowardly general debt collector fight the Jegal Se family? If he did, he might end up having to fight the Five Great Families… .”

At those words, Nam Gwang-ro’s face distorts.

The general manager of the Jang Gangsu Line, Hwang Jong-gil.

He, who is taken care of by Nam Gwang-ro as his stepfather, has become timid since some time ago, just as Seong Il-gwang said.

I was just trying to protect what I had, not move forward.

The Yangtze River gangs once ruled the world, but after Hwang Jong-gil became the chief debtor, their size continued to shrink.

“Didn’t I say I’m aiming for the position of the CEO a long time ago?”

“This is my father.”

“What kind of father is your father? We don’t share a single drop of blood. Didn’t the other heads of the water color clans support you from the beginning? Every time, you refused… … .”

“Gwang-ah, stop it.”

“Now that we’re on the subject, what has the CEO done so far?”

“… … .”

“Just taking bribes and playing around, taking advantage of incompetent small business owners… … .”

“You idiot.”

“Because the owner of the company is quiet, the other owners don’t come forward even if they are dissatisfied.”

Seong Il-kwang’s mouth would not close easily, as if he had been dissatisfied with many things.

“Do you think I don’t know? Didn’t you prepare to retire a long time ago to keep your loyalty to the general lender? Because you were afraid that if the general lender was here, those damn small lenders wouldn’t be able to take over.”

“Huh? You?”

“Why? Have you been trying to hide it your whole life? Are you hiding it behind a secret?”

“Did you know?”

“Am I an idiot? How did you become close with Mr. Chae Joo and Mr. Dang Ga Joo? I only now realized that he was very capable, but didn’t we become close because he gave me the money in the first place? That’s why I was able to escape from that evil bastard’s clutches.”

Nam Gwang-ro let out an awkward laugh at Seong Il-kwang’s words.

That son of a bitch.

You knew everything, but you pretended not to know until now.

“Your Majesty, this cannot continue. Look at the situation. The brothers of Jang Gang are being attacked by the likes of Zhuge Liang, and isn’t General Chae Ju, who should have stepped forward already, just watching?”

“hmm.”

“Once you get out of this situation, take the position of the general debtor.”

“It’s not easy. The elders… … .”

“The elders will freeze to death! I will shut up the old men who may die at any moment. I will also gather all the opinions of the shareholders. Huh?!”

When Seong Il-kwang shouted, Nam Gwang-ro frowned and muttered.

“Once you leave Gunsan Island, do that.”

“What do you mean, I will get out of here? I will definitely get out of here.”

“Is it possible? In the current situation… … .”

Nam Gwang-ro slumped his shoulders helplessly.

It wasn’t because I didn’t have the strength.

The blockade of Dongting Lake by the Zhuge family is not a problem at all.

I could have beaten them all to death, whether they were a hundred or a thousand.

If you only take care of yourself… … .

But isn’t that the case?

If you go outside, Gunsanchae will be attacked.

It was a situation where not only his subordinates, but also the injured Gongsun Seung and the family members of the Danggata branch could be put in danger.

So they are staging a sit-in.

“Your Majesty.”

“huh?”

“The Tang family will definitely move.”

“What is the price?”

“Yes, I believe it. That person, he is not the kind of person who would turn his back on his family because his power is weak. Don’t you know? He is the kind of person who will always get revenge.”

“That’s true, but the opponent is Jegal Se-ga. The Five Great Warriors could also participate. It would be difficult with Dangga-ta’s power.”

“No. He will definitely find a way. And he will help us. We saved the Gongsun family. He is a man who does not forget grudges, but he is also a man who repays kindness.”

Nam Gwang-ro opened his eyes dimly and glared at Seong Il-kwang’s passionate speech.

“Why do you seem to trust the party leader more than the general manager?”

“Do you like tea?”

“many.”

“Then let’s do it that way.”

“young…….”

Nam Gwang-ro burst out laughing.

But I’m worried.

They are holding out in Gunsanchae, but they won’t be able to hold out for long.

I was also worried about other waterways that were already under attack.

“ha…….”

At that moment when the ground was sighing as if it was going to collapse, Byeoksu Daeju Lee Gon suddenly came running in.

“My lord! My lord!”

“Hey, Inma! I have a patient, so be quiet!”

“I’m sorry, but I’m in a hurry… … Please take a look at this.”

“huh?”

What Lee Gon held out was a rough envelope, and it was filled with tiny letters.

“It was sent from Baek Yachae.”

“White vegetables? Those guys from the northern part of Hubei Province?”

“Yes. This is news of victory.”

“What!?”

At Lee Gon’s words, not only Nam Gwang-ro but also Seong Il-gwang were so surprised that they jumped to their feet.

“Victory?”

“Yes! It’s a victory. I have received word that the Zhuge Liang family’s Heungsan branch has been destroyed and is heading towards the eastern waterway.”

“Hey, these guys! They did it!”

“Yes! I did it. I heard that Cheonryeongchae in the Sacheon waterway is also joining.”

“Even the Cheonryongchae guys?”

“Yes. The party is moving together.”

Nam Gwang-ro’s slumped shoulders rose again and suddenly became lively.

“Really? The party moved?”

“Yes.”

“What did I tell you? I said that even if the debtor doesn’t move, the party stock will!”

Seong Il-kwang cheered and shouted in delight.

“But they say there is no sugar.”

“huh?”

“It seems like the stock price is moving on its own.”

“What are you talking about? Alone?”

“According to the news sent by Baek Yachae, the Heungsan branch had already collapsed before they could attack… … .”

“huh?”

“It just came like that. Maybe because they were busy, there were no detailed details.”

Nam Gwang-ro, who had been tilting his head, muttered without realizing it.

“Then, surely not, Dang A-woo?”

“That’s right! The Tang family attacked Heungsan.”

“I wonder?”

“Hey, how come you, my brother, have less faith in me than I do?”

“… …We’re not even related by blood.”

“Sometimes water is thicker than blood.”

“… … .”

“My lord, let’s hurry. Let’s tell the children about the victory and boost their morale. We need to move too. That’s the only way we can continue the victory we’ve barely won.”

As Seong Il-kwang shouts with an excited expression, Nam Gwang-ro looks at Gong Son-seung with worried eyes.

“That’s true, but are you okay? The wound isn’t shallow.”

“Let’s put him on the Great Black Ship. Let’s put him on the Great Black Ship and go straight through the waters to Sacheon. Let’s prepare to wipe out those bastards of Zhuge Liang there!”

“hmm.”

Nam Gwang-ro thought about it for a moment.

Gongsun Cheng was injured more seriously than expected.

It wasn’t life-threatening, but what if the wound opened up if you moved too much?

“Chaeju… … sir.”

“Oh, Your Highness. Are you awake?”

Nam Gwang-ro sits close to Gongsun Seung’s weak voice and examines his body.

“Yes. In the voice of the Lord of the Wall… … .”

“I’m sorry. I should have kept quiet. How are you feeling?”

Gongsun Seung smiled even though he was sick, as he asked about his condition while glaring at Igon.

“I… … am fine.”

“Thank goodness, I am truly grateful.”

“Thank you. But, I have to hurry and leave Gunsan right now.”

“What does that mean?”

“Gunsan is not a good place for a sit-in.”

“… … .”

“And if it is true that the lord has moved, he will probably try to attack the main camp.”

“What? You, Yongzhongshan?”

“Yes. Since the Zhuge Liang family concentrated their forces on the Yangtze River, their main camp would have been empty.”

“But it won’t be easy there even without people.”

Nam Gwang-ro also knew well what kind of place Jegal Se-ga was.

A place that is protected even when there are no people.

That was the home of the Yongzhongshan Zhuge family.

That is why Zhuge Changyun was able to deploy all his forces into the Yangtze River.

Because I have no doubt that the head of the Jegal family is an iron fortress.

“I’ll figure it out somehow. The Lord will never fight a battle he can’t win.”

“hmm.”

“So we have to move. That way, the Zhuge Liang family won’t be able to turn their attention elsewhere.”

Nam Gwang-ro thought about it for a long time.

What should I do?

But it didn’t take long to make up my mind.

“You idiot.”

“Yes, my lord.”

“Set sail. Bring Danggata’s family to the inner cabin of the Great Black Ship, and leave Dongting Lake with only food and combat supplies.”

Seong Il-kwang and Lee Gon smile broadly at Nam Gwang-ro’s decision.

The departure of the king.

The grand fleet is moving.

“Yes! Your Majesty! I will obey your command!”
