Uchiha's Counterattack

Chapter 361 The Smell of Gunpowder Smoke ④
—Boom!

"Stay away, don't stay where you are!"

"Captain, let's fly out and fight them in close combat. If we get close, we can destroy their cannons with fire escape!"

"Shut up and fly out, there must be ambushes around them!"

Some members of the brigade wanted to take off to fight back, but the enemy's artillery fire was too fierce to lift their heads up. After all, the ninja profession does not need any benchmarks and rulers to measure distances. Many professional ninjas know how to fight and how much to lift at a glance. , referring to where to fight is their basic condition as a cannon ninja.

Secondly, because the search was too intense at the beginning, they searched a nearby area of ​​more than 30 kilometers in one breath before they caught the enemy's little tail and followed them all the way.

However, the excessive consumption of the jetpack caused the energy inside to be exhausted, and the four replacement energy tanks were also exhausted, so if the [-]th Brigade wants to launch another air raid, at least they have to wait until they have replenished the jetpack with their own chakra. The power of the backpack will do.

Therefore, even if it was disgraced by the bombing, No.17 Squadron could only grit its teeth and insist on waiting for help, and looked for opportunities to rush out.

As the team leader, Nohara Shin was blown up enough, but he knew better than anyone else that there must not be many people in the Ninja League on the opposite side. The straight cannon can be carried with you using a seal scroll, but you can’t hold many shells. !

The maximum weight of the seal scroll is only about 50 kilograms. If you carry 10 seal scrolls each, you can’t even reach a base of 500 kilogram shells. I don’t believe that you can persist until the fourth or even fifth round. shoot!

Nohara Jin has participated in several border battles and is quite familiar with the attack mode of the Ninja Federation. The number of these enemies must not be many.

- rumbling rumbling!
Sure enough, after another burst of continuous bombing, the intensity of Ninja League's artillery fire dropped significantly.

And after the third and fourth rounds of salvo bombardment, although Konoha was still unable to lift his head from the beating, the sound of the cannons on the other side gradually faded.

"The captain's shells are all gone!"

"Convex(艹盘哉), I knew that the newly developed seal scroll is unreliable, and there are not enough shells, these are scrap iron, blow up all the cannons and then let's go, leave this pile of scrap copper and rotten iron to Shinkonoha, Hahahahaha, I can imagine the commander on the other side getting so angry."

"Hahahahaha."

With mocking laughter, there was a muffled bang from the Ninja Federation, all the forts were blown up, including all written materials, and by the way, a few bombs were left in the position as traps, even if the group of Konoha people could not be killed It can also scare them to death.

After doing all this, the Ninja Federation immediately retreated.

………………

The incoming artillery fire from the other side finally ended, and no new shells fell for a long time.

"Has the gunfire stopped?"

"Don't show your head, beware of being deceived!"

But the Konoha ninjas didn't show up immediately, fearing that this was the enemy's suspicious strategy, and once they showed up, they would attract another wave of enemy artillery bombardment.

"..."

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped out and ran to the center of the bombed area.

He raised the binoculars in his hand to look at the enemy fort in the distance. After careful observation, the figure turned into a puff of smoke with a "boom!" It turned out that he was a shadow clone specially used for investigation.

And after the memory of the shadow clone returned to Nohara Jin's mind, he breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand to order:
"Get up, those grandchildren have already run away."

The surrounding Konoha ninjas climbed up from the pit one after another, and the yellow sand flowed in along the gaps in the armor. Although it could not destroy the original parts inside, it was very uncomfortable. Therefore, the first thing many ninjas did when they climbed out was to put the inside of the armor. Get out the sand, otherwise it will be too irritating.

The deputy captain walked over with a blackened face. He ate the first shell just now, which caused a hole in the front of his armor. Fortunately, the deputy captain only suffered minor injuries. .

"Ahem, don't you want to continue chasing?"

"It's not necessary, those manipulating the cannons are all soil clones, the main body probably ran away long ago!"

Nohara Shin frowned and said.

The vice-captain immediately became furious when he heard that, and chased them for dozens of miles, and it was a waste of time, and Nima was bombed for no reason and almost lost his life.

The deputy captain gritted his teeth in hatred and threw the detector in his hand, roaring angrily.

"Damn it's the same thing again. If I used to hate illusions the most, then what I hate the most now is avatars. These red guys always use avatars to attract attention and then run away from the old routine. Next time If our airship troops use high-energy chakra induction to find these grandchildren nearby, and then let them bleed one by one!"

"What's the point of bloodletting one by one, just use the phalanx of the airship to blow up even the top of the mountain!"

"That's right, let them see what is the strongest firepower under the tail beast!"

"Even their hometown was blown up!"

After hearing the complaints from his subordinates, Nohara Shin smiled helplessly and shook his head slightly.What they said was all nonsense to vent their temper. Although it was helpless, it had to be admitted that the enemy's tactical use was indeed superb, almost driving the characteristics of the ninja to the highest output at the lowest cost.

The scroll of seal is the arsenal for walking, and the ninja itself is the best mobile fort.The avatar technique can replace the body to bear any risk, but at the same time achieve the maximum output... This is the way of fighting ninjas in the new era. They are all ninjas belonging to the era of artillery fire (technology).

"Okay, you are lucky enough to be able to survive a shell at close range, thank you Lord Fifth Generation for your gift, and give us the latest fourth-generation armor as a priority."

"Hahahahaha...Indeed, if it weren't for this armor, I would probably have gone to see the ancestors today."

The vice-captain grinned. Although his chest was hurting like hell, he knew he wasn't seriously injured.Thanks to the latest product from the Academy of Sciences, I must thank Lord Godaime and Snow Ninja for their support.

"—Unfortunately, there was no tongue left."

Nohara Jin looked at the enemy's position with thick smoke in the distance, and said with a little regret.

Since entering the age of science and technology, the way of fighting among ninjas has undergone tremendous changes. The close-to-body combat in the past has become a long-distance bombardment battle.The previous battlefield only had ground terrain, but now——Nohara Shin raised his head and looked at the smoky sky.

The battlefield of ninjas in the new era is not only on the ground, but also in the sky.

Now that the enemy has fled, the No.17 brigade can only return to the station. On the one hand, they must guard against the second wave of enemy sneak attacks, and on the other hand, they must hurry up to repair the destroyed bridge.And often only at this time, the earth escape ninja is the most popular existence.

No matter how damaged or attacked, as long as there are enough Tudun ninjas and blacksmiths, a 3-kilometer bridge can be completely repaired in 2-5 days, and even if it is pushed to rebuild, it will take less than 15 days time.Of course, the destruction this time was too severe, and it would probably take more than half a month to say the least.

But those are the problems of the engineering troops, not their battle orders.

"Send a telegram to inform the Hokage Building that the rats have been expelled and cancel the backup request."

"Captain, are we going to retreat like this!?"

The vice-captain said in disbelief, he just got hit by a cannonball and was it for nothing? ?

Shin Nohara turned his head and gave him a blank look.

"Additional note: The No.17 Brigade requests to continue chasing the rats, to find out where and how they passed the death boundary line, and at the same time request the assistance of the airship brigade stationed on the border of the Kingdom of Grass."

Looking at the dark clouds in the distance, Nohara Jin said in a deep voice.

The request telegram was quickly sent to the Hokage Building, and the reply from the Hokage Building was also very timely.

At 15:30 in the afternoon, the reply from Hokage Building arrived.

"Give the No.17 Brigade the pursuit permission, and the Hokage Building will notify the Border Air Force to assist - the command order."
