I Was Discharged From the Hunter Guild

172 – Why can’t I go to Yodong in this situation?

Smartphone in hand.

The contents contained in it were news that anyone in the Republic of Korea would be delighted with.

-Republic of Korea Army finally completely occupied Pyongannam-do

-Only a few dozen kilometers to the Yalu River, will we finally be able to achieve the nation’s long-cherished wish?

-After joining the Eastern Front Corps, it is advancing in a stately fashion

-Did Abyss give up on defending the Korean Peninsula? The reason for the rapid advance is presumed to be the aftermath of the last defense battle in Kaesong.

The news of the Korean army, which has started its march without hesitation and finally recovered the South Pyongan Province area and is pushing up on it.

The news of the victories of small-scale battles going on in real time, and the news about the ‘border line’ that was going up and down accordingly, were automatically making many people go wild.

-All Korean soldiers are fighting!

– I always support you

– That’s crazy. Is it really possible to completely unify the Korean Peninsula?

-Go beyond the Korean peninsula and even to Yodong!

-This is the Northern Expedition that got it right

At this point, most people have already begun to have expectations for the complete restoration of the Korean Peninsula, as well as the northern conquest, the so-called conquest of Liaodong, which has been a historical long-cherished wish since the Goryeo Dynasty.

A long-cherished wish that countless great men and monarchs had hoped for, but could not be fulfilled due to the country’s lack of capacity and unlucky surrounding circumstances.

In fact, just a few years ago, it was a dream that was considered virtually impossible as long as the existence of the People’s Republic of China had its eyes open.

The story was different now that they had literally been eaten by the Abyss in an instant.

Under the newly revised international law, those who first recover the territories occupied by the Abyss are the owners.

Because of this, even at this moment, countries bordering China, such as Russia, India and Vietnam, were fighting bloody battles with the Abyss by exerting their capabilities to the fullest, not just for their own safety.

In addition, this served as a reason for Western countries, including the United States and France, to continuously participate in the war in the form of reinforcements, rather than countries bordering the Abyss.

It was an opportunity to legally increase one’s influence on one’s own territory and the corresponding region even a little, in modern times when border lines are set and it is impossible to recklessly encroach on other countries’ territories.

And in this regard, the Korean government had already secured exclusive rights to the Liaodong region and the Korean Peninsula in cooperation with Russia in advance.

Now, if you drive out the Abyss and occupy the area, you will have the right to legally unify all the territories where the Korean people have lived without anyone noticing.

It is natural for the people to be enthusiastic in a situation where they are aware of that fact.

But..

As I looked at the comments filled with expectations from people, a bitter smile automatically began to form at the corners of my mouth.

‘Conquest of Yodong. I’m sorry, but at this point, that would be impossible…’

Unlike in the past, there were no specific requests coming in, and thanks to that, I was now relaxing at Dreamers Headquarters.

However, apart from just watching the situation,

Now I was able to figure out how the current situation inside the military is going much more accurately than the general public.

Even at this moment, I had an information source running on the front line and relaying the current situation in real time.

‘Anyway, since it was reorganized into a lower unit, it would be impossible to provide top-secret information.

Na-sun Na, who has been constantly giving me information since she asked for an apology from me in the past.

Even at this moment, she was periodically conveying the current situation inside the expeditionary force and the general atmosphere.

And through this

I was able to grasp the fact that the Korean army, which is currently moving upward without hesitation, has reached what is called the ‘end point of the offensive’.

‘The supply line has already been stretched enough… In addition, the fatigue of the soldiers is accumulating quite a bit. At least the hunters would be fine. The situation of ordinary soldiers is not so good.’

Unlike the Hunters, who have steel-like stamina, the current general soldiers were quite tired from consecutive forced marches.

No matter how much the enemy is falling like autumn leaves, considering the disgusting mountainous terrain that is characteristic of the Korean Peninsula, even covering this distance in a short time was not an easy task in the first place.

In that respect, the speed of the advance of the allies will drop rapidly, and it is highly likely that the end will be the army’s primary target, the Yalu River.

In addition, there was another factor that could not be ignored that prevented the soldiers from going all the way to Yodong beyond the fatigue of the soldiers.

Honestly, there was room for fatigue to some extent just by slowing down the advance and taking a breath.

Considering that the enemies are still not showing clear movements anyway, there is enough time to spare.

The biggest problem was the current state of support to continue the offensive.

‘Apart from the increasing number of supply lines, various types of support are becoming more and more unsatisfactory. What this means… is that they’re starting to adjust their speed, right?’

Even at this moment, the high-ranking people who are obviously having a blood-drying fight with each other.

As for what they were thinking, reducing the size of the reinforcements and reducing the amount of supplies, I could clearly see the inside story without seeing it with my own eyes.

‘I don’t know who started first… but maybe one of them put the brakes on. Given the circumstances, it’s highly likely that they’re a rising force trying to prevent the Lee family from climbing again…’

The news of victory continued one after another, and accordingly, the authority of the leadership who held the command of the military was also greatly increased.

However, there was no law that these achievements would be divided equally, and if at any moment one side monopolized the ball unilaterally, there was a high possibility that the other side would feel a sense of crisis from then on.

The balance of power was something that, once shaken, could tilt without hesitation, and once the tilted state hardened, it was extremely difficult to overturn it.

In particular, if it is related to a great achievement that will go down in history like this time, the nervousness will inevitably be more serious from the point of view of the person concerned.

For that reason, there must have been a fierce fight between the Lee family, emerging powers, and neutrals, and in the process, it was highly likely that the side that was thought to be cornered at some point took action first.

The act of gradually reducing support in order to end an offensive that threatens to harm their power.

And the so-called ‘trolling’, which began with the movement of either side, would have ended the tacit alliance that was loosely existing.

As a result, the army that had pushed all the way to the north was slowly losing momentum as support from the rear disappeared.

‘To think that they’re doing something stupid even when the enemies are out of their senses.

Their unanswered move had already been proven through the situation on the Kaesong front, and this was being clearly revealed once again through the advance on the Yalu River.

‘Those who are considering their own food bowl more important than the national interest right now.

With that thought in mind, I turned off my phone and slowly began to lean back in my chair.

An uneasy future that I can’t do anything about now.

All I can hope for at this point is…they are willing to change this situation…

I was just expecting them to do something for me by asking me for some kind of ‘proof’, a clear explanation of the situation.

and..

My wish is…

Due to the breaking news that arrived shortly after, it began to reveal itself in detail.
