Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 560

Episode 560. Melee (5)

“Damn it.”

For the first time in a long time, an angry curse came out of Hu Yaoseong’s mouth.

“I should have prepared in advance.”

Namgoong is a great force.

Although their paths were different, they faced a common enemy with the Heavenly Demon Church. In addition, he had a deep relationship with the religious leader, so it was good to see him as an ally with no reason to be suspicious.

Damsayeong eliminated that ally.

‘Because it was Namgung, there was definitely something I could do. Damsayeong took that possibility away in advance.’

Of course, I expected that they would invade the Namgung family. But there was a reason not to worry.

‘Sword King Noh Seon-bae.’

The best sword in the world is there.

The leader said that Namgung-eon, the King of Swords, was the only sword seeker among active martial artists who realized the heart and sword. He said that although he may be ahead in martial arts, no one can compare in the depth of enlightenment.

I thought that a strong person like that would be able to escape even in the worst situation while maintaining a certain amount of troops. Moreover, aren’t there not only Nam Gung Eon but also veteran veterans of the previous era?

Moreover, the head of the family, Namgoongdan, was not of average skill. That was enough power to respond without any help from here.

‘Even not far from Anhui, our school’s Majon and the Heavenly Demon Army are holding the battle line.’

This means that there is no choice but to have a huge psychological burden. Nevertheless, Dam Sa-yeong boldly attacked Namgung.

Five teenage masters and troops from the Heavenly Dragon Palace were sent to completely destroy it. I thought there was a good chance of an air raid, but I didn’t expect it to be pushed this hard.

“It can’t end here.”

Ho Yaoseong responded positively to Cho Hae’s words.

“Of course I will.”

“If you have five of the ten masters and a unit of Heavenly Dragon, it is like an iron fortress that moves on its own. Although one in five is dead, their danger remains. “It is a power that no sect other than Shingyo and Iron Blood Saints can handle.”

“exactly. In other words, it’s not like the force was sent just to push Namgung. “They are the most powerful advance guard and detachment in the world.”

“That’s right.”

“Until now, there have not been many times when Damsayoung’s plans have worked perfectly. Of course, so do we. “Because we read each other’s intentions and did not tolerate even half success.”

“But this time, the enemy’s intentions worked.”

“exactly. If Namgung Se’s annihilation battle had failed this time, Dam Sa-yeong would have taken a step back and reorganized his battle lines. However, since we have achieved a worthy success, from now on….”

“With the Four Great Masters and the Heavenly Dragon Unit at the head of our horses, we will begin to change the flow of the war.”

“That’s correct.”

He is definitely someone that Gong Yachi cherishes. Although he was not comparable to Hu Yao-seong himself, he was a person with whom he was willing to talk as a soldier.

A serious look appeared on Cho Hae’s face.

“If we change the course of the war… no matter what, we won’t try to touch the Protestant forces right away.”

“That is very likely. “The fact that they decide to attack the Protestant forces means that they are somewhat confident of victory.”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes sparkled.

“The strongest detachment made up of a small number of elites. In other words, they will try to attack the enemy closest to Anhui.”

It was an accurate insight.

An embarrassed expression appeared on Cho Hae’s face.

“Where could it be? “Are you sure you’re trying to attack Shaolin right away…?”

“It’s a possibility that cannot be ignored. But there is a high probability that it is not Shaolin.”

“What do you think?”

Hu Yaosheng pointed to the map.

“The enemy’s headquarters is in Hubei. And most of the troops of the detachment departed from Hubei. If he had been considering Shaolin as well, he would have gone straight for the attack, taking advantage of the absence of Jeoksong Seon-bae and Shaolin Bangjang’s eight great warriors. “It means there was no need to pass through Daegang and attack Namgung first.”

“ah!”

“Moreover, Senator Wonju sent Gorumazon and 1,000 troops of the Cheonma Army to Hanam. “Hanam is close to Hubuk, so there is no way Damsayeong wouldn’t know that a large number of troops were moving there.”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes deepened.

“Then there is one answer.”

“Steel-blooded…!!”

Chohae swallowed his saliva.

“The enemy’s detachment clearly boasts powerful military power. But there’s nothing we can do about Sanghyeongseong with that much strength.”

“Of course it is.”

“if…?”

“If it goes as I expected, Damsayeong will definitely send a follow-up unit.”

“Follow-up unit?”

“exactly.”

“If there are enough troops to take down the Iron Blood Fortress… could it be the emperor?!”

Hu Yaosheng did not reply.

‘The emperor.’

Of course, sending the imperial army would be the most ideal. In addition, countless civilians live in the outer walls of Iron Blood Castle. When the imperial troops attack, they have no choice but to open the way on their own.

‘But should I really call the Imperial Army?’

The number of the Imperial Army is more than ten times that of the Heavenly Demon Army.

Even if it is divided and operated again, it is clearly noticeable. There was no way that the imperial army would be dispatched in a situation that was not an all-out war, as countless masters were burning their eyes throughout the central plains.

‘Go Soo-jin is complete. If there are four of the top ten masters, even Song Seongju cannot guarantee his life. Even if Sinchang Eongeuk adds strength, it will be a close match.’

In other words, rather than deploying more Hwagyeong experts, there is a high possibility of dispatching troops to support them.

At that moment, Hu Yaocheng’s eyes lit up with fire.

“Is there anyone out there!”

After a while, the reliefs of the monument came in.

“Did you call me, Commander-in-Chief?”

“Bring me the documents about the enemy’s Sichuan army right now.”

“All right.”

Bujoju brought dozens of documents after a while.

Hu Yaosheng frantically looked through the documents.

These documents contained detailed information about the movement of troops of the Qingcheng faction, the Ami faction, and the Tang family. Of course, if they move with determination, they can completely avoid the eyes of informants, but as long as they do not move only on mountain paths, they are bound to be noticed at any time.

‘does not exist.’

The problem was that there was no trace of the Sacheon Sammun side’s leader moving at all.

Of course. If any of them had moved, a report would have come in immediately.

‘That’s why it’s even weirder.’

Even after thoroughly examining the documents recording the movements of the Sichuan military over the past year, no suspicious movements were found.

‘That can’t be possible. There is no way to abandon Sichuan Province unless Damsayoung is crazy. Every citizen of Sichuan Province is under the control of the Three Gates. In other words, Damsayeong would have thoroughly built up solidarity with the Sammun.’

Hu Yaosheng opened his mouth again.

“Please also bring the documents of the Shaanxi military.”

It was the same.

Due to its location, Shaanxi Province has a much smaller number of informants than Sichuan Province. Therefore, I focused even more on the movements of the Hwasan faction and the Jongnam faction.

‘Still not there.’

Shaanxi Province is also an area where two of the Old Daemun factions established themselves. It was also the largest concentration of our troops after Sacheon.

However, even in Shaanxi, there have been no reports of troops moving for a year.

‘…!!’

Hu Yaosheng felt a sense of discomfort running down his spine.

‘It can’t be like this. ‘This is so strange.’

In the meantime, they have been fighting against the imperial army, the troops under Dam Sa-young’s personal command, and the might of the Heavenly Dragon Palace.

However, he did not pay much attention to the Seven Great Gates Sect that joined hands with him. I was keeping an eye on it, but I didn’t dig into it thoroughly. This is because Damsayeong’s main army is much more threatening than them.

‘Did you naturally avert your eyes? Are you intentionally drawing attention to the main army? No. Damsayoung didn’t have the luxury of that.’

then?

“It means that even Damsayoung didn’t care about the Seven Great Gates Sect. But he will never give up on the Seven Great Gates Sect.”

Didn’t they pay any attention to the military when they should? And you’ve been neglecting them for the past year?

‘Nonsense!’

Chohae asked curiously.

“Commander General? “What is the Seven Great Gates Sect…?”

“I will ask Chu Danju.”

“yes?”

“Comparing the current Damsayeong side’s forces and ours, who do you think has the upper hand?”

Although I was still puzzled, Cho Hae’s answer was unhesitating.

“Of course, Protestantism has the upper hand. “If we were to wage an all-out war that excluded strategy and tactics, I think we would have a 60 percent chance of winning, even if we set it low.”

“I think so too. And I don’t think the enemy knows what I or Eumsangdanju know.”

“…yes?”

Hu Yaosheng’s cheeks trembled slightly.

“There is no way Dam Sa-yeong could have just ignored the undeniable difference in power.”

“…!”

“The Seven Great Gates and the three generations excluding the extinct Hwangbo and Namgung.”

Chohae’s face turned pale.

Hu Yaosheng shouted.

“Footnote! Contact the Zhejiang front right away! We need to give strength to the Iron Blood Castle! “We must contact the senator separately to ensure that there is no disruption in the operation of the troops!”

“I follow your orders!”

* * *

Paaaang!

Xiliang’s Divine Law, running at incredible speeds, was like a storm.

The Tiger Demon Emperor and the Geumho Tiger King were following behind him, but Seoliang’s speed was so fast that the distance gradually widened. We’ll probably move together soon, but right now the situation is too urgent.

‘Senior Noh.’

Xiliang bit his lip.

Before meeting the enemy in Gwiju, Nam Gung-eon’s face suddenly came to mind.

I thought it was just a coincidence. No, I thought that Damsayoung could attack Namgung, but I believed that she would be able to sufficiently respond.

Wrong.

This time, I was completely defeated by Dam Sa-young. Who could have ever imagined that they would do something so outrageous as to round up half of the teenage masters and send them away?

‘I’m sorry. ‘Because I couldn’t help you in time.’

In the past, when he went to capture Gangseo Sanghoe, he had a brief confrontation with Namgung-eon.

Even in such a situation, Namgung-eon used his mind and sword to somehow lead himself to the right path. Even though he overexerted himself to the point of exhaustion after just one trial, Namgoong Eon believed in himself until the end.

He and Namgoong Eon had that kind of relationship. We’ve only met a few times, but he was someone who made a good impression every time we met.

How could a person like that die so vainly? I could hardly believe it.

‘Damsayeong!’

Because of him, many of my seniors left this world one by one.

Jeoksong and Hyeoncheon, who were mortally wounded by the troops he sent, passed away.

Fortunately, Hyeon Cheon Jin-in achieved enlightenment and became one with Wudang Mountain, but in fact, if it were not for Dam Sa-young, he would have fought for the world for the rest of his life.

But those two people were not enough, and now Namgung Eon is dead.

Seo-ryang thought of Nam Gung-eon.

The Sword King’s face, even as he was out of breath, was full of pride and worry that made the Heavenly Demon’s heart sink into his heart.

– See. You are a person who can be harsher than anyone else, but you are also a very soft person.

– If the powerful are not afraid of shedding blood, the world will become hell from then on. You know that too, right?

Xiliang’s eyes were bloodshot.

Whiiiiiiiing!

The strong wind blew his clothes and hair like crazy.

Flash!

At that moment, his eyes saw a valley swirling with terrifying magical power.

The road to Cheonhyeolseong, Jiangsu Province.

Countless martial artists blocked the path, forming a huge formation.

‘I guessed it.’

Dam Sa-young knew. Not only Western Liang, but the Church of the Heavenly Demon God will notice.

He expected that his opponent would also realize that the detachment that destroyed Namgung was going to attack Iron Blood Fortress.

That’s probably why they created such a huge formation. Numerous strongmen surrounded the area of Sanghyeolseong Fortress and were thoroughly controlling it to prevent them from supporting troops.

However, they probably did not know that the disaster called Xiliang would reach this far so quickly.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Ultra-high temperature flames soared from Seo-ryang’s body.

It seemed as if he could hear Namgoong Eon’s hallucinations in his ears.

– Please don’t be a monster.

The flames of the Blood Fire God Qi, amplified by the Blood and Wood God Qi, burned with terrifying force.

Kugugoogung!

A translucent evil spirit badge appeared behind Seoryang’s back.

The representative of the most terrible and ferocious demon in the world, holding a blade as large as Mount Tai.

Hehehehe!!

The chest let out a harsh roar and swung the sword towards the flames.
