Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 256: Tansho Street Battle 2
The order from the Fire Nation general was still very intimidating, and it immediately stopped many people from escaping.

Everyone knew that under this order, running away would lead to death and would also implicate the family. There would be no way to survive after a bounty was put on the head. On the other hand, if one died on the battlefield, only one person would die, and the family would receive a compensation.

After giving up the idea of ​​escaping, the 8,000 ninjas and soldiers who received the order had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the trenches, and work with the survivors in the trenches to treat the wounded and repair the defenses.

A ninja came to the Fire Country General and Shimura Danma and reported: "General, sir, the casualties have been counted. In the attack just now, 1,430 people died, 2,400 people were seriously injured, 4,300 people were slightly injured, and more than 1,200 people are missing."

"More than 1,200 people are missing. How could so many people be missing? Did they escape?" The general of the Fire Nation was stunned when he heard this and said in disbelief.

The huge casualties terrified him, but the disappearance of so many people was even more unbelievable to him.

He was watching the trenches being built and didn't see anyone running away, let alone such a large number of people.

"They are not missing. They were blown to pieces by the explosion just now or buried by the soil raised by the explosion."

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danma sighed and explained.

Shimura Danma was right because they were hiding in anti-artillery caves, many of which were blown down.

Hearing this, the Fire Nation general's face became even gloomier.

At this moment, he even hoped that those people had escaped. The enemy's attack did not cause more casualties. This was nearly 10,000 casualties! Even if the slightly injured people could still go to the battlefield in the future, it was still a loss of 5,000 people.

In just a short while, without even seeing the enemy, we lost five thousand people, and more than four thousand were slightly injured.

"The missing people should be reported as missing!" After thinking for a while, the Fire Country General said immediately. The compensation for more than 1,200 people is not a small amount. Even if he doesn't get it himself, he has to help the Daimyo save the money.

"No!" Upon hearing this, Shimura Danma immediately spoke out to stop him.

Although he was also greedy, he had a broad vision. Now they had to do everything they could to stop the enemies from the other world, otherwise everyone would die, and even if they didn't die, they would be held accountable, and by then it would be useless even if they had a lot of money.

He persuaded them, "The enemy is so powerful and terrifying now. The soldiers already have the intention to escape. They only continue to fight because of the threats. If these people are really treated as missing, I am afraid that the morale of the army will be greatly shaken, and many soldiers will escape."

The Fire Nation general was so shocked by the order that he immediately changed the order: "Missing people will also be reported as dead in battle."

After all, missing is not a completely defined deserter. If we count these people as missing even though we know they died in battle, what will the rest of the soldiers think? I am afraid that most people will think that if they cannot find their bodies after they died in battle, they are missing. This is a bit like gambling, and many soldiers will want to escape by going missing, or even running away directly, in order to survive. As long as someone escapes, this gap cannot be closed. If too many people escape, it will be difficult to investigate, and they will fall into a vicious circle.

What they should do in this battle is to inspire the soldiers' fighting spirit, no matter what means are used.

"Hi!"

Upon hearing this, the ninja immediately shouted and obeyed the order and left.
-
"General, the enemy is re-positioning their positions. Should we bombard them again?"

In the command center's car, on the screen, a colonel looked at the real-time images transmitted back by the reconnaissance plane and asked.

"Continue the bombardment and try to eliminate as many enemy forces as possible! In addition, the sovereign civilization has sent an order that Duance Street will be the boundary and no more troops will be recruited."

Upon hearing this, Richuan Gangban immediately gave the order.

"No longer recruiting?"

Upon hearing this order, exclamations were heard from the dozens of screens hanging in the command vehicle.

Because they became cannon fodder of the undead civilization and knew their fate as cannon fodder, they were willing to recruit puppet troops in addition to trying their best to reproduce. They were cannon fodder, but they also wanted to gather cannon fodder to die for them in the front. But now that this order came down, their thoughts were directly blocked.

"This is the order of the suzerain civilization! The boundary is Duance Street. All we need are corpses. As for how and when to operate, we will decide by ourselves." Richuan Gangban just said in a cold voice.

Hearing this, all the officers on the screen fell silent, and then they could only respond unwillingly: "Hi!"

Now they have no qualifications to violate the orders of the undead civilization and have no choice but to carry out their orders.

Otherwise, without the protection of the Undead Civilization, the Sakura Civilization would have only one ending, which is extinction within a few decades or even months, which they absolutely cannot afford.

They are like vicious dogs raised by the dead. If they are obedient, they will be rewarded. If they are disobedient, they will be beaten to death.
-
In the trenches of Tansho Street, after an hour of busy work, the soldiers and ninjas of the Fire Nation finally sent the wounded and bodies back to Tansho Street, and also repaired some of the defenses.

At this time, everyone was extremely tired, and many of them were resting against the trenches, enjoying what might be their last quiet time.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

However, just as they rested, the whistling sound of artillery shells rang out in the sky again.

"Enemy attack?"

When the survivors of the previous shelling heard the sound, they all screamed and ran to the nearest anti-bombardment hole without hesitation.

To those who had experienced it, this sound was simply the sound of hell.

"Boom~~~"

The next second, dense explosions rang out in the trench positions.

"Again!"

The Fire Nation general and Shimura Danma, who were evacuated under the protection of their personal soldiers, were now in a state of confusion and despair.

It is foreseeable that after this round of attacks, the casualties will be even heavier than the last time.

Because of their orders last time, many people were in the anti-artillery holes, and the trenches were well-built last time, and there were more than 9,000 casualties.

This time the soldiers had just finished their work, and many of the anti-artillery holes had been blown up. There were simply not enough anti-artillery holes to hide in. I'm afraid the casualties will exceed 10,000.

They haven't even seen the enemy yet, and they have suffered more than 20,000 casualties. How can they continue to fight this war?

~~~
"This is too scary!"

"If this continues, I'm afraid this line of defense won't last even a day. The Fire Nation won't be able to hold out for long!"

On the hill behind Tance Street, a large number of various summoned beasts and ninjas gathered here, hiding in camouflage and watching the explosion outside Tance Street, each of them terrified.

Some of the ninjas were holding very large cameras, obviously recording.

As the first blocking war against the alien world, how could the various forces in the ninja world not send people to watch and record the battle!
