Episode 514: Conquest of Seoul (1)

 

Seoul conquest.

 

When we first talked about the agenda, Kim Jun-hyuk and others showed a worried reaction.

 

"It is a reckless plan. It does not matter whether Incheon can conquer Seoul or not. After the Absolute foretold a catastrophe, an international law was passed that prohibits fighting with the same human beings for a month after a catastrophe occurs at the meeting of the leaders of each country. It is a law to prevent the human race from devouring its own flesh in a situation in which humankind may perish, and civil war does not deviate from the scope of international law. If Incheon takes advantage of Seoul's crisis to bring them down. There is a high probability that countries around the world will define 'Incheon' as an enemy."

 

"I think the same. Everyone thinks the central government is unfair, but from the moment Incheon violates international law, local governments will not compromise with Incheon. It is a fight that has lost its cause. Even if Incheon overthrows the central government, Incheon should rather worry about the future."

 

international law.

 

It was a sensitive issue.

 

They could turn the whole world into an enemy, so everyone was startled by Roman Dmitry's remarks.

 

However.

 

Roman Dmitry was quiet.

 

Issues such as international law had already been fully considered.

 

"Your words are true. If international law is violated, the whole world will attack Incheon, and Incheon will experience many difficulties, whether directly or indirectly. However, the risk posed by international law is a meaningless premise. The central government has already shown hostility towards Incheon, and from the moment we turned down their offer, we have crossed a river of no return. If, after a catastrophe, the central government fully realigns its forces, we are bound to miss out on an advantageous opportunity because of the time guaranteed by international law."

 

"If you think about the future, that is a factor you have to accept."

 

"no. Even thinking about the future, now is the right time. International law is the law for great powers. On the surface, this appears to be a safeguard for mankind, but there has been no practically meaningful punishment for the great powers that violate international law. They are just trying to block variables. So that countries other than great powers do not self-destruct. That way, the risk that the whole world can bear is dispersed, so we are using humanity as an excuse to deter other countries. I hope for a new future centered on Incheon. And Incheon's status in the new future will be determined not by its faithful adherence to standards set by the world, such as international law, but by how powerful Incheon is."

 

It was an outrageous logic.

 

The existence of international law was overthrown by force.

 

"The central government is in a dangerous situation. If we attack them now, we can minimize the loss of our troops, and the record of overwhelmingly overthrowing the central government will remain the standard by which the world will judge us. Think about it. Although it is a small country, the central government is an organization that has integrated the entire country of the Republic of Korea. If a city has the power to overwhelm the central government, it is difficult to attack Incheon even if it is a powerful country. In fact, in a war with the central government, the power of the local government is not necessary. The reason for accepting them is to unify the entire Republic of Korea, and if powerful countries impose economic sanctions on international law, we can choose to become self-sufficient with resources secured from local governments. i don't assert In the past, there was a powerful weapon called nuclear in this world. No matter how small a country was, I couldn't even touch a country with nuclear weapons."

 

People swallowed dry saliva.

 

The more Roman Dmitry spoke, the more he felt completely overwhelmed by the overwhelming sense of intimidation.

 

"I defeated an S-class monster with one blow. My existence will be like a 'nuclear' to people. Do you think that even a powerful country would dare attack Incheon? impossible. Even if war broke out, I had the strength to deal with them."

 

I was arrogant.

 

It was great confidence.

 

However, since the opponent was Roman Demetri, Kim Jun-hyeok and others did not accept it as if it were nonsense.

 

actions in the past.

 

You have already proven yourself enough.

 

If he's right, he's right; if he's right, he's possible.

 

In fact, if you have the confidence to take on the whole world, you will be able to organize the central government without any major problems even if you attack Seoul after the catastrophe is over.

 

Still, it hit the right time. Roman Dmitry always thought about the best no matter how powerful he was.

 

If the central government was clearly defined as an enemy, it was a natural choice to find the weak points of the enemies that should one day be defeated and brutally bite them.

 

blast furnace.

 

Now was the right time.

 

The right time to overthrow the central government and create a new game center around Incheon.

 

Roman Dmitry said.

 

"Three days after Red Time. Within three days, the enemy will be identified and those identified as enemies will be wiped out. keep in mind If you want to follow me in the future, you will have to understand and accept the new game centered around Incheon, not international law created by the same human beings."

 

* * *

 

And now.

 

Cha Young-min asked with a shocked expression.

 

"… … Was it something that was discussed with the Incheon government in advance?"

 

"Yes."

 

"Great."

 

It was embarrassing.

 

Seoul conquest.

 

Cha Young-min wanted to ask a complex issue such as international law, but found that it was a meaningless premise.

 

The Incheon government has Kim Jun-hyeok. As the mayor of Incheon, he had a reputation for being wise, but he could not have followed Roman Dmitry without thinking.

 

Besides, that person standing next to Roman Dmitry like an escort warrior is a symbol of justice called the wizard in white.

 

It was a crossroads of choice.

 

Rather than questioning things that were not common sense, it was time to look at Roman Dmitry and make a decision.

 

'Roman Dmitry is a person who destroys common sense. The head of an S-class monster was blown away with a single blow, and a monster wave occurred in the sea, but it was easily resolved. Even with the information that I have confirmed, Roman Dmitry is not something that can be classified as a class. He has strong power that goes far beyond the S rank, and if he is the type of person who goes to war against the atrocities of the central government, there is a high probability that his relationship with him will be decided with just one choice. If he kept a vague distance while measuring his opponent, he would never be able to go forward with him.'

 

Swallowed dry saliva.

 

Incheon vs. Central Government.

 

It's an unbelievable fight.

 

People would say it was a David and Goliath fight, but Cha Young-min did not doubt Roman Dmitry's victory.

 

It just seemed like it.

 

Instinct was strongly attracted.

 

'The answer has already been decided.'

 

saw the essence.

 

The direction of Roman Dmitry.

 

The modern society uses the arrogant expression of the people, but unlike the central government, which always says the people are everything, it did not turn away from the people.

 

Those that serve the people and those that don't.

 

From the two-choice option, it was clear which one was better for Busan and for my future.

 

The worries didn't last long.

 

After exchanging glances with the leaders, Cha Young-min said with a determined expression.

 

"So, what can I do from now on?"

 

* * *

 

Ulsan.

 

Fortunately, it was not hit directly by the catastrophe.

 

However, as the monster wave occurred in Busan, it was within the sphere of influence, and as the monsters that inhabited the area flooded in, it suffered its own difficulties.

 

Then an incident happened.

 

Just when the red time was over and I was about to take a breather, I received a report that one of Ulsan's defensive bases was in danger.

 

[You need help right now. As the wall collapsed, the defensive ability was completely lost.]

 

"… … I will find out soon."

 

communication was cut off.

 

Myeong-hwan Lee, Mayor of Ulsan, pressed his temple to the sudden surge of pain.

 

the beginning of the catastrophe.

 

Unlike other cities that were mostly wiped out like Incheon, Ulsan had a relatively peaceful time.

 

At first I thought it was luck.

 

However, as so many citizens survived, it was impossible to focus the defense system by downsizing the city like Incheon, and Ulsan had to divide the defense base into several to accommodate the large population.

 

It wasn't just that.

 

As migrants flocked to Ulsan on the news that it was safe, Ulsan had one of the largest populations among local governments.

 

So, I divided the defense base into three.

 

He dispersed his troops to prepare for a catastrophe in his own way, but he heard a report that one of them had collapsed a while ago.

 

It was a dilemma.

 

According to the report, reinforcements should be sent immediately, but the current situation at the base was not very good.

 

'It can be dangerous if you move too hastily after the red time is over. However, if reinforcements are not sent, many Ulsan citizens will die. Ah, how the hell did you do this?'

 

I had a headache.

 

There was no hasty judgment.

 

As he was pondering over and over again, he received an unexpected call.

 

'Cha Young-min?'

 

Busan mayor.

 

It was from Cha Young-min.

 

I felt a little hesitant.

 

Shortly after the Monster Wave occurred, Cha Young-min requested troops from nearby local governments including Ulsan.

 

Lee Myung-hwan refused the earnest request.

 

I fully understand that Busan is in danger, but I was not allowed enough money to help Busan in a difficult situation to protect Ulsan.

 

As he was feeling remorse alone, Lee Myung-hwan received a call after thinking of enough excuses in his head.

 

By the way.

 

The words that came back were shocking.

 

[Join the revolt. If you give me your strength, I will solve all the problems facing Ulsan.]

 

Roman Dmitry gave Cha Young-min the role.

 

If Incheon is the same body as Roman Dmitry, Busan made the decision to cooperate with Incheon for the first time rather than with the central government.

 

So, Cha Young-min was brought to the fore.

 

If the person who was persuaded persuades others, he decided that he could win the hearts of the local government.

 

It was as expected.

 

Cha Young-min knew how to persuade.

 

[Right now, the central government cannot afford to help the provinces. No, even if there is, Ulsan will be pushed to the second place in order to take care of the friendly forces of the central government first. Mayor Lee Myung-hwan. Roman Dmitry saved Incheon and Busan. A power unmatched by the central government, he never forsakes his people. So judge wisely. There is no double chance. If you reject Incheon's offer, you will never be able to reverse your current choice again.]

 

got into trouble

 

It was not an easy matter.

 

It was difficult to trust Roman Dmitry that much, and if he chose Incheon, he could be driven into a rebellion.

 

However, after thinking for a while, Lee Myung-hwan changed his mind.

 

As Cha Young-min said, even if they swore allegiance to the central government, they could not receive an answer that they would help right away.

 

Considering the immediate situation, not the distant future, it was clear that Roman Dmitry was the one who could solve the Ulsan crisis.

 

And.

 

I believed in the previous case.

 

If Incheon and Busan, which were hit directly by Monster Wave, were safe, Incheon would have had enough power.

 

"… … If you help Ulsan, I will follow Incheon and join the rebellion."

 

beyond the screen.

 

Cha Young-min laughed.

 

[You thought well.]

 

* * *

 

The human heart was deceived.

 

Even after he said he would cooperate, Lee Myung-hwan reflected countless times whether his choice was the right one.

 

'If the central government overpowers Incheon. The Ulsan government and I, who joined the rebellion, will be punished accordingly. Is it really right to believe in Roman Dmitry? The words he hears prove his strength, but not the facts I have personally confirmed. If even a little exaggeration is added, the Ulsan government may face the worst outcome.'

 

I was nervous.

 

I was anxious.

 

He didn't do anything with his eyes fixed on the phone.

 

himself was funny

 

It would take at least a few days to solve the Ulsan problem, but he did not have a pulpit to wait in peace.

 

Had an hour passed?

 

Suddenly the phone rang.

 

tirili.

 

'It's still too early. He must have been contacted by another matter.'

 

put my mind down

 

There was no way that it had already achieved special results.

 

By the way.

 

The voice that had spoken of the desperate news a while ago, now conveyed the situation with a voice full of joy.

 

[Mayor! You just succeeded in retaking the defense point again! All of this is thanks to Incheon's support. Only two of them appeared through teleport magic, and they wiped out all the monsters that attacked the defensive base. The mayor's choice was right. With such monsters, they are enough against the central government!]

 

Moment.

 

I had goosebumps.

 

At the result achieved in just an hour, Lee Myung-hwan showed his shaky eyes.

 

"… … Is this possible?"

 

Now I am convinced.

 

The rebellion that Cha Young-min spoke of.

 

It no longer felt unrealistic.

 

* * *

 

Ulsan was just the beginning.

 

Cha Young-min persuaded the local governments one after another, and as the number of success stories increased, the local governments also responded positively.

 

antipathy to the central government.

 

An unbearable catastrophe.

 

The power of Roman Dmitry.

 

It was a combination of three beats.

 

If the cords that came down from the sky were real, there was no reason for local governments not to grab the cords.

 

However, the plan did not go smoothly.

 

southern regions.

 

Regions away from the capital quickly succeeded in persuading them, but things changed as they moved upwards.

 

Cha Young-min also warned.

 

There's nothing wrong with convincing the majority, but I can't guarantee everything.

 

just as expected.

 

[What does that mean now? Dare to revolt against the central government?]

 

Moon-ho Jung, Mayor of Hanam.

 

The central government's reaction was fierce.
