Episode 155. Let’s End It with a Shooting Battle
It was Dalcheon’s mistake to come down behind the rebels. He tried to sweep away an alley, but it didn’t work. The guys who were caught by the buttocks were scared and ran forward, pushing them away, so the pressure on those who were trying to go up the north side of the alley became stronger. This shouldn’t be happening. If the pressure is strong, the same number of Pia will die or get injured.
Dalcheon pulled himself out again and ran along the inner wall of the alley. He threatened the long line of men by swinging his sword here and there, and they climbed over the wall and ran away. You have to threaten them instead of trying to kill them, so they can escape.
When the two armies met, they gave directions, and the enemy was defeated and advanced again. The alley was a mess with collapsed walls and corpses of dead people. The cypress fence had fallen to the side, and the wall built with earth and stones had collapsed. The thatched houses that had been standing awkwardly collapsed, and the smell of blood filled the yard with people who had fallen.
That’s what war is. Who says anything about war? It’s something that should never happen. Those who commit terrible acts that no one is allowed to do are those who truly do not know war.
Was it just a little over a minute? Dalcheon, who arrived at Unjongga after suffering countless casualties, saw at a glance that the number of soldiers had decreased. Although the enemy had been pushed back, the number of friendly casualties was not small. He felt like cutting off the balls of the bastard who planned this operation.
There is an invisible force that makes a group. Even if they die countless times or fail without a plan, they move according to some inertia. It is not easy to say that it is a survival instinct. The soldiers who came out of the alley formed a line, and as their numbers increased, they formed a camp.
The side of their formation was clearly visible far down the road where people had disappeared. Did they run away into the alley and report it? The guys hurriedly formed a thick line on the right side.
The trio stood in front of the large road, and the three units formed a line. It was time to become an indifferent commander again. Dalcheon’s mouth twitched.
“Raise the signal first, make the first attack, and then retreat. You must send someone to let them know that you are going to attack. Build a bridgehead where you retreat.”
“Loyalty!”
Firecrackers were shot high into the sky. Three firecrackers attached to long arrows flew high into the sky and exploded, sending sparks flying in all directions. Three was the signal to attack. He sent someone to tell them that he was attacking, and advanced the army. After advancing about fifty paces, the bewildered faces of the men were palpable.
Park Geun-su, the leader of the trio, looked back at Dalcheon.
“It’s shooting range.”
Dalcheon narrowed his eyes. There are about one hundred and fifty shots. Shooting is possible, but the arrows could fly into civilian areas.
“Let’s move forward a little further.”
“Loyalty!”
Park Geun-soo shouted loudly.
“All troops! Advance 30 steps. Advance!”
Boom boom boom!
As I walked, my feet hitting the ground, it felt like the ground beneath me was tilting. The rebels quickly sent people to deploy troops nearby.
“I neutralize them with my bow.”
Although it was quite a distance away, the sound of Dalcheon’s voice rumbling sounded like thunder to the ears of the training center’s Sajik.
“Archer! Prepare to fire!”
“Prepare to fire!”
“Prepare to fire!”
“Prepare to fire!”
“Prepare to fire!”
Archers positioned at the rear, with their shields and spears protecting the front, fired arrows onto strings.
“All troops, fire three arrows!”
“Three shots!”
“Three shots!”
“Three shots!”
“Three shots!”
Pipipiping, arrows flew, leaving behind a blast of dust, and rained down on the enemy lines. They had no shields or armor. They could not be stopped or evaded. Dozens of men fell before the enemy, who had reorganized their battle lines, could order a charge.
When the two men flew away, the men fled to both sides of the road. As I was knocking them down again, a dozen or so black unmanned men jumped out from among them. They were the ones I had warned you about as special among the rebels. They swung their swords, knocked away the arrows, and ran at full speed. It seemed as if they were trying to jump over a hundred and twenty chapters in one breath.
Sajik Park Geun-soo looked back at Dal-cheon again. Dal-cheon asked to borrow his bow and deflected the arrow. It didn’t fly with just the strength of the bow, but with his inner power. The arrow flew at an invisible speed and knocked down one of the black unmanned men. It took so much strength that the body of the guy running towards him flew backwards and crashed down. He pulled the bow with his index finger and deflected it with his index and middle fingers. He shot it with his inner power, and the arrow bent as if it was going to break and flew across space in an instant.
Thud thud! Thud thud!
Dalcheon pulled and shot like a machine, and each time, one person fell. The closer they ran, the more accurately they were hit. Before I could strike them with my sword, the arrows were already digging into my body, and I was helpless.
When another one flew off in the second shot, Sajik Park Geun-su ordered the aiming shot. He thought he couldn’t leave everything to Dal-cheon. Hundreds of arrows flew towards a dozen people.
The black drones, exposed to the concentrated fire of the archers that followed, began to fall. They tried to block them with their swords, but they were not able to block them all, and it took less than half an hour for them to all fall in the wide space between the two armies.
As the black drones fell, a subtle crack appeared in the enemy lines. It was a surprise mixed with fear. The strong swordsmen who had trained for years fell helplessly. It was because they believed in them and had gained courage behind them, but they fell so vainly. They were also blown away by a few arrows.
Fear and anxiety are contagious. A startled amazement spread through the ranks, and sighs of concern and apprehension leaked out.
The new general sent more troops toward Unjongga.
“Hit! Don’t give him any space. Don’t hesitate, run and take him down!”
“debriefing!”
“Run and stick to me! Stop me somehow!”
The drums rang and dozens of men rushed out first. After that, additional troops were sent, and then again. Now is not the time to worry about the flanks. We must break down Gwanghwamun and enter the palace.
Is there anything that is not important in each battle? If one part falls, the whole thing falls apart. However, the common mistake that those who take command make is to focus on the main objective. It is not that they should not focus, but they overlook the fact that the original objective is not possible if the side is breached.
The training unit in charge of the left side rushed forward and requested to advance.
“We must move forward.”
I saw them fall in vain. I thought I could charge. I had to strike when they were beaten and groaning.
“yes.”
“The shooting range is too far. You have to get closer.”
“yes.”
Even though I witnessed the obvious, I looked at Dalcheon. The time when I had to get some kind of permission from him, who was the head of the school, was repeated on the battlefield. No, what was scarier than that was the worry that I might fail when I made the decision. I hesitate even though I believe that the decision I made now is completely right.
“We must advance.”
Dalcheon nodded silently.
“They’ll come out, because there’s no other way than to charge.”
“We will secure the firing range.”
“Okay, then.”
It wouldn’t be all that there were for the troops deployed at the waist, with a dozen black unmanned personnel. There would be other schemes. It’s a relatively unimportant aspect compared to a full-scale attack, but if this falls, everything could fall. I wondered why they hesitated and didn’t come out.
“Let’s advance 50 steps and end this with a firefight.”
“Loyalty!”
I appreciate the specific instructions that followed Dalcheon’s permission. I thought the same thing, but when someone higher up says it, it can’t get any better.
“All troops! All troops advance 50 steps! Peng Baesu and Changbyeong forward.”
“Forward to the Pengbaesu!”
“Forward, spearmen!”
“Forward to the Pengbaesu!”
“Forward, spearmen!”
Park Geun-soo shouted to the back.
“Archer, fire three arrows!”
“Three shots!”
“Three shots!”
“Three shots!”
While the archers were shooting, shields and spears advanced. Park Geun-su ordered some of the archers who were shooting to advance and close behind, and then another group advanced. Several waves surged forward.
When they had set up camp about seventy or eighty yards away, the rebels’ flanks sprang out. The shouts to charge could be heard far and wide.
“Archers shoot!”
“shooting!”
“shooting!”
“Block the enemy, Peng Baesu! Five steps forward! Five steps forward!”
“Jang Chang-soo, come on! Five steps forward!”
Is there anything more terrifying than being ordered to advance when the enemy is charging? The ranks of the Pengbaesu wavered. Those who had been trained advanced, but those who had not. The solid formation swayed back and forth. The officers shouted orders to advance.
After taking 5 steps, I made him take 5 steps again.
The archers, who felt safe because they were relatively far away, shot arrows as expected. Hundreds of arrows flew. The enemy camp on the other side returned the arrows, perhaps because they had deployed their archers too late. They were better equipped with shields and armor than the enemy, but they were still afraid.
“Get right in front of the archer! Get right in front of him!”
It’s the order we’ve been waiting for. Although we must advance, we can hide behind our large shields. The archers are right behind us.
“Archers, advance! Put away your bows and draw your longswords!”
“Pull out the first row sword!”
“Pull out the first row sword!”
“Pull out the first row sword!”
Dalcheon watched with excitement as the order to resign was delivered. He was worried that an enemy might break through the shield.
Dalcheon watched the situation from behind Iljajin while moving left and right. The arrows flew and struck down the enemy, but the men who had come running all at once approached Iljajin.
“Brace for impact! Shield!”
The water level rose again at the shout of resignation.
“shield!”
“shield!”
“shield!”
He held his shield upright with a shout and thrust it forward.
“Stab the first row with spears!”
“Stab!”
“Stab!”
“Stab!”
“Stab!”
Dozens of spears swung their lances toward the rushing enemy. Dozens of spears were thrust through the narrow gap between the shields. The rushing enemies were impaled by the spears before they could even get close to the shields. Dozens of screams arose.
“Hey, heat it up!”
“Stab!”
“Stab!”
“Stab!”
“Stab!”
As the long spear was struck away, another long spear was thrust into the chest of the approaching men.
“Ahhhh!”
“Ahhhhh!”
The spear pierced the body of the enemy soldier who rushed at him, thinking it was a turtle shell. Those who had escaped those two attacks struck the shield with their swords. They dug in between the shields. Peng Baesu blocked the enemy with his arms and shoulders, but there was someone who dug in through the gap.
“Spearmen, step back!”
“Spearmen, step back!”
“Janggeomsu! Strike!”
Several orders were given sequentially. Janggeomsu rushed forward and stabbed the necks of those who were digging in. The spearmen advanced again and stabbed the advancing enemies. In the meantime, hundreds of arrows flew past the formation. As they struck the backs of the advancing enemies, those who had hastily approached were isolated. They steadily cooked the enemy soldiers by blocking with shields, stabbing with long spears, and cutting with swords.
Several places were breached, but Dalcheon ran quickly and cut down the enemy group. The military officers reorganized their battle lines. They had Jang Geom-su pick up the fallen shield and the spear that had lost its owner.
“All troops, ten steps forward!”
“10 steps forward!”
“10 steps forward!”
“10 steps forward!”
In the meantime, the commander who ordered the advance was a soldier who knew how to fight. He should have taken a breather since he had blocked one fierce wave of the enemy, but he immediately advanced his troops. The soldiers standing in the vanguard hesitated, but the officers rushed in and struck them on the back to make them obey the order.
“Archer! Fire three arrows at the enemy main force!”
He ordered the infantry to advance and fire at the same time. Dalcheon approached quietly and muttered.
“You are truly a great scholar, I wonder where you studied.”
Now is not the time to say such things, but it is a difficult matter to overcome than the sky.
“Yes.”
“What are you going to do now? It’s getting closer to a distance of fifty or sixty chapters.”
“I will break through.”
