Episode 1100. Burning fire under heavy rain (9)
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand.”
Guyun nodded at Sunwoo’s words.
“I think so too.”
The military spirit emanating from beyond the mountainside on the right was calm yet explosive.
The discipline that was already sharp was joined by a discipline that was somehow free-spirited yet more tightly controlled. Judging from the information received a moment ago, it was clear that they were Murim Alliance troops.
So I thought it was too late… … .
“At first glance, what the volcano says makes sense. Normally, a first-class martial artist can easily deal with cavalry. but… … .”
“But sticking to the plains wouldn’t be the right tactic.”
“That’s what I said.”
Sunwoo’s face hardened.
Even though I thought about it over and over again, it didn’t seem like this was right.
“I guess I should go and see.”
“Now, long sentence of death penalty. Instead of doing that, send someone.”
Sunwoo shook his head.
“I too have learned tactics, but not as much as you. Except for me, the surviving elders have fought great battles. “I will be much better than I am now.”
“It’s not like there’s a fight going on right now.”
“In order to change opinions, it is best for the leader to go there in person.”
Sunwoo looked around.
Under Jongnam, who was in charge of the left front in central Shaanxi, a large number of military personnel were gathered. Half of them were Jongnam’s lay families, and the other half were clans that had maintained their position for a long time in the Shaanxi region.
The troops on the left front are Sacheon, and the troops on the right front are Icheon. With the addition of 2,000 Murim League troops, the number of troops on the left and right fronts was clearly divided.
“I’ll be back soon.”
Faaagh!
Soon-woo ran towards the foot of the mountain in an instant.
‘never.’
He thought as he ran.
‘A tragedy like what happened at Jongnam Mountain should never happen.’
Sunwoo was a person with a fiery side to the point that he was called the Hwado Shingeom.
However, his radical nature was only used against evil. In his daily life, he showed such good character that he was worthy of being called a person of character, so the evildoers feared Sunwoo, calling him a devil with two faces.
However, Sunwoo was not a person who simply hated evil and showed a good side in front of ordinary people, focusing only on the image of the shaman that the martial people thought of.
Although he may be considered somewhat emotional, he was a wise enough person.
That wisdom was not exercised in consideration of status. Sunwu knew that his martial arts were stronger than any of the elders of Jongnam, but he also knew that the strength of his martial arts did not guarantee the superiority of his commanding ability.
This part can be said to be the decisive difference between Sunwoo and Hwasan leadership.
Moreover, he lost many disciples in the great war. He still hasn’t escaped the sadness of that time, but because his experience was an experience, he had no choice but to be more cautious than anyone else in the face of an unprecedented crisis.
Whoa!
He crossed the mountainside in an instant and saw numerous troops.
‘That’s strange.’
The Murim Alliance troops were lined up in front of the Seomseo troops. It looked as if the Murim Alliance troops were going to attack the enemy first.
Sunwoo couldn’t hide his doubts.
Papa pang!
Puzzle fueled urgency. Sunwoo rushed to their front lines with all his might.
“stop! who are you!”
“Don’t stop! “He is Jongnam’s long-time writer!”
Sunwoo flew over the heads of the soldiers and quickly approached where Mo Yongwoo was.
“Little Lord.”
“Jangmun-in?!”
Sunwoo bowed his waist.
“Jongnam Jangmun Sunwoo meets Lord Somaeng.”
Mo Yong-woo was surprised.
“I was going to send someone anyway, but why did you come?”
Sun-woo, who was about to speak, suddenly saw Namgung-seung standing next to him.
Sunwoo bowed his head politely. However, the example was simpler than the greeting given to Mo Yong-woo, the small leader.
Namgung Seung’s face showed a look of satisfaction. She was definitely different from the leaders of Sunwoo and Hwasan.
Sunwoo, who caught a glimpse of Namgung Seung, spoke directly.
“No matter how much you think about it, it is too dangerous to meet the enemy on the plains. So I came here in person to ask for reconsideration.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes sparkled.
“We also discussed that part.”
He told the exact same conversation he had with Yongseonjin.
Relief appeared on Sunwoo’s face.
“Thank goodness. Since it is divided by the central mountainside, I think the front lines of Jongnam and Hwasan will have to move to the front.”
“Of course you should.”
“Does this mean that the Murim Alliance troops will attack the enemy first?”
“That’s right.”
Sunwoo, who was lost in thought, looked around at the Murim Alliance troops.
“There are three of the six corps and four of the outer castle unit. “They are all experienced in field battles, so they will be good at hit-and-run.”
Mo Yong-woo couldn’t help but be impressed.
“Jang Mun-in’s insight is truly amazing.”
“If I hadn’t experienced the tragedy at the headquarters, I wouldn’t have thought to look into the unit’s characteristics or experience.”

Even while talking about the war in Jongnam Mountain, Sunwoo did not show any bitterness. The battle was just around the corner. He didn’t need to show negative emotions.
“Now that you’re here, let’s talk until we get information about the enemy. “I think you can move before the enemy moves and line up with the volcano and the front line.”
“I will do that.”
It was then.
“Little Lord! “Someone is coming from the north!”
Mo Yong-woo, Namgung-seung, and Sun-woo all turned their heads towards the north.
Namgung Seung’s eyes deepened.
While looking around the troops, I was concentrating on the conversation between Mo Yong-woo and Sun-woo, so I didn’t even know if someone was approaching.
“They are demons. But there is no hostility.”
“What if it’s a demon?!”
Tension appeared on Sunwoo’s face.
“Could it be the enemy’s messenger?”
“To think that’s the case, there’s not much hostility. And I’m not even riding a horse.”
Namgung Seung frowned.
“I heard that there were almost no survivors after the Shinmarim of Cheonghae collapsed. Who are they?”
For a moment, Mo Yong-woo’s eyes widened.
“no way?”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes widened as he ran among the soldiers.
“Confucius Tian!”
After a while.
Cheon Hyorak and Hwahyang approached Mo Yongwoo.
“It’s Prince Cheon and Emperor Hwa Soje.”
Cheon Hyo-rak took the gun.
“I heard a rumor from afar that you have become a minor lord. “Congratulations, even if it’s belated.”
“I’m embarrassed. by the way… … .”
There was surprise on Mo Yong-woo’s face.
“Have you got your martial arts skills back?”
“I was lucky.”
The force was too great to be said to simply be luck.
It felt a bit clumsy and somewhat stiff, but surprisingly, the amount of internal power it possessed was greater than that of myself. I didn’t think I would lose if I fought, but I didn’t think I could win easily either.
Mo Yong-woo was purely impressed.
“I heard from Emperor Yeon that Prince Tian’s talent is worthy of discussing the world. “You are truly amazing.”
“I’m just embarrassed.”
“But what do you think?”
Cheon Hyo-rak briefly spoke about what had happened so far.
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes sparkled.
“Supply unit… … .”
Cheon Hyorak’s face was very serious.
“The lands of Cheonghae and Seojang are barren, but there are quite a few clans who are skilled in martial arts. Although it is not comparable to the Jungwon, they also used to fight wars between factions.”
“I will continue to listen.”
“Among them, there are sects that have accepted the equestrian people. They use supply units that carry out intelligence in times of war, and because they are muraim, their supply is significantly lower than that of regular soldiers. “Their supply troops usually carry horse feed.”
“I heard that northern horses don’t get sick even if they eat common weeds.”
“Not only that, but there are many horses that run all day while eating only half as much as a normal horse. Still, war is war, so supply soldiers deliver horse feed.”
“Are you saying our enemies are using similar methods?”
“That’s right. However, even if we improved the breed of horses, the amount of hay carried by the supply troops we captured was extremely small.”
Cheon Hyorak’s eyes sparkled.
“In the Northern War, supply soldiers simultaneously play the role of intelligence soldiers. “They must have set up a base in Shaanxi in advance, and not including the supply unit we captured, at least 3,000 more supply soldiers must have hid in Shaanxi.”
Mo Yong-woo’s cheeks trembled slightly.
If Cheon Hyo-rak’s words are true, it means that the enemy’s cavalry entered the war with the confidence that they would be able to destroy and pass through the Shaanxi troops as if it were a given.
Whether the basis was superiority in strength or superiority in strategy and tactics, it was clear that it was a serious problem.
“first… … Where is Senior Makwon?”
“He said he would return after checking the enemy’s movements.”
“okay.”
The only consolation was the participation of two transcendental masters named Cheon Hyo-rak and Hwa-hyang, and Mak Won.
Namgung Seung and Mak Won would be able to easily capture the enemy general. Mo Yong-woo was greatly relieved at that point.
“Thank you for coming this far. “Just rest for now.”
“no. If you give me a map, I will think about where the enemy’s supplies went. Of course, you don’t have to listen to our opinions.”
“Is that possible? On the contrary, when it comes to the wars of the Northern Wulin, Tian Gong is more expert than us. Please take care of me.”
There are no restrictions on the exchange of opinions. This was Mo Yong-woo’s great advantage.
So the group put their heads together and began to guess where the supplies were headed.
“It must have moved in units of five hundred. If you increase it beyond that, it will easily be noticeable, and if you decrease it below that, there will be a limit to the supply. Five hundred would be correct.”
“Shaanxi, like other regions, has many large mountains, but it also has many plateaus and plains. Unfortunately, considering the cities surrounding Chengdu, there are many places for supply troops to move secretly. “It is difficult to pinpoint the location.”
“If the supply unit is in charge of intelligence, it must be considered to be around the capital. However, there won’t be many spies returning while Hwasan and Jongnam are encamped.”
“It would be like that now. “The supply troops we captured were heading south, but we must assume that there were also those stationed near Chengdu at that time and heading north to report intelligence information.”
“That’s right. “What were their martial arts skills like?”
“His divine skills were excellent, but his combat ability was low. “There was a strong impression that he had been trained professionally in only one divine law.”
“Then we won’t go south and set up camp or attack civilians. A unit trained for its purpose would never try to create a variable… … .”
It was then.
“The scouts are coming!”
A total of five scouts quickly approached Mo Yong-wu.
“Ten thousand horsemen have moved! The distance was about 40 miles, and the military spirit was amazing!”
“The size of the horse is enormous! It seemed to be half the size of a normal horse! Moreover, they all exude a strange energy, and that energy is similar to demonic energy!”
“The speed over the mountain was fast! “This is a movement that is beyond the limits of horseback riding, so if we charge forward without rest, we will likely reach this point before half an hour has passed!”
Mo Yong-woo, who quickly gathered information from the scouts, shouted to the leaders of the Murim League Icheon troops, the third division, and the fourth division.
“Arrange your battle lines! After a half-measure, we will march to the border of the mountains and fields!”
Sunwoo went straight back to the left front.
The troops of the clans, including Hwasan, also prepared for battle.
Mo Yong-woo got on the horse.
“We will definitely win the first battle!”
