Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 258 All parties were shocked
The battle of Tansho Street City was over in just three hours.

The remaining troops in the city were unable to even put up an effective resistance as the tanks and armored vehicles opened the way. In less than half a day, some were killed, some fled, and some surrendered.

Except for a few lightly wounded soldiers who were able to move easily and escape, all the wounded in the rear area of ​​Tance Street surrendered.

Of the 72,000 people gathered here by the Fire Nation, more than 30,000 were killed in the battle, and more than 30,000 were captured. In the end, only less than 10,000 escaped, and almost everyone was injured.

Among them, the ninjas of the Shimura family fled as soon as they found that the situation was impossible to succeed. However, out of the more than 500 ninjas of the Shimura family, only less than 300 people successfully escaped from Tansho Street.

Of the 300 tanks and 10,000 infantrymen of Sakura Star, only one heavy tank, two light tanks, three armored vehicles, and less than 300 soldiers were lost. A dozen tanks and armored vehicles were also grounded, but they were all repaired and could continue to be used.

The lost tanks were all blown up by ninjas who were determined to die and had explosive tags all over their bodies. The armored vehicles were destroyed by a surprise attack by the Shimura family's jonin and chunnin using ninjutsu, but the two jonin were also riddled with bullets.

Most of the tanks and armored vehicles that broke down were caused by the above reasons, or they were hit by pits and collapsed large buildings, but the power was not enough to destroy them.

After all, even the tracks of a light tank cannot be blown off by one or two detonating tags. It will take at least three, not to mention the body armor.

The soldiers were killed by sneak attacks from the ninjas and cold shots from the new recruits who were equipped with guns.

(The ninja has the advantages of a ninja, but now they just lack intelligence and experience.)
"General Hikawa, we have captured more than 30,000 enemies, of which about 10,000 are seriously injured and about 20,000 are slightly injured. Among them, there are also some ninjas. How should we deal with them?"

In the center of Tansho Street, a colonel reported to Hikawa Koban.

After hearing this, Hikawa Koban pondered for a few seconds and said immediately: "Send an infantry division to transport all the enemy bodies including the bodies of this battle to the rear and build a new prisoner-of-war camp to guard them. The ninjas will be transferred to the Village of the Dead and handed over to General Iruma Kei."

Although it is a bit exaggerated that a division has 25,000 people to escort prisoners, considering that this is a different world and there are professions like ninjas who possess magical powers, there is no guarantee that there will not be unexpected situations. Especially since these prisoners are escorted to the rear, we still have to be more careful, and a division is enough to be safe.

As for our side, we still have three divisions and two brigades of troops that can be mobilized. After the prisoners are settled, it won’t take much time for the escorting division to return.

"Hey!"

Upon hearing this, the colonel who reported the order immediately accepted it and did not question it.
-
"How could it be so powerful?"

In the Land of Lightning, the Hidden Cloud Village, the Raikage's face suddenly turned as dark as ink as he watched the battlefield video footage and casualty information urgently sent back by the spies through the summoned beasts. The high-ranking Cloud Ninjas also had solemn expressions and remained silent.

I thought that the Fire Country had gathered more than 70,000 people in Tansho Street, and they would be able to hold off the enemies from the other world for ten days or half a month. After all, that was more than 70,000 people! Although there were only 2,000 ninjas among them, and most of them were wandering ninjas with only Genin combat power, they were still a presence that could not be ignored.

As a result, after three rounds of artillery bombardment outside the city and one round of artillery bombardment inside the city, the enemy was not even seen, and more than half of the more than 70,000 people were lost, and they could only retreat inside the city for defense.

The remaining 30,000-plus men could not even withstand a single attack from the enemy and were completely defeated in three hours.

At the same time, there is another situation that cannot be ignored. The enemy was able to seize the opportunity so accurately to cause huge casualties to the defending army. Obviously, the enemy had some means to monitor the battlefield at all times.

And that kind of steel chariot makes the elite ninjas' scalps tingle.

After watching the video, the Raikage pondered for a long time, then asked everyone: "Everyone, facing such an attack from the enemy and their surveillance methods, I hope you can brainstorm and come up with a way to deal with it. We don't ask for complete safety, but we ask for reducing casualties. And guard against the enemy's surveillance and detection!"

Hearing this, all the high-ranking Kumo Ninjas fell into deep thought. As high-ranking ninjas who had experienced many battles, they immediately thought of many ways to solve the problem. However, considering that a large number of troops were just ordinary people, and the enemy's methods were unknown, their methods were not very feasible, and no one spoke first for a while.

The same thing happened in all the countries and ninja villages, they all received detailed reports of the Tansho Street battle. Even if some small countries didn't have summoned beasts or even ninja villages, there were big ninja villages that sent intelligence on the battle.

Now all the senior executives are holding emergency meetings to discuss countermeasures.

Because everyone knows that the Fire Nation may not be able to hold out for a year or two as they expect, and it may even have difficulty holding out for three months. Soon they will face the same predicament that the Fire Nation is facing now.
-
Daming Mansion of the Land of Fire.

When the battle report came, they saw the huge number of casualties and only less than 10,000 remnants who escaped.

This time, the Daimyo of the Fire Country did not get angry. He just sat on the futon as if he had lost his mind, with a frighteningly gloomy face.

This outcome was too disappointing for the Fire Nation and also meant an even darker future.

The problems and decisions that other countries were able to analyze were immediately thought of by the Daimyo of the Fire Nation, which was facing enemies from another world.

At the same time, he also knew that aid from other countries was even more hopeless. The enemy was so powerful that other countries would only try their best to strengthen themselves in the hope of having the power to resist before the enemy attacked them. They would not provide the Fire Nation with scarce weapons and supplies.

At this moment, the Fire Country Daimyo even thought of surrendering. However, as soon as the idea came out, the Daimyo rejected it again.

If he surrenders, others may survive, but he and his family will surely die. The only way left for him is to resist to the end.

Thinking of this, the daimyo couldn't help but look at the ministers under him.

He absolutely could not surrender, but it was hard to say about these ministers.

Surrender would mean certain death for the daimyo himself and the extinction of his family, but this was not the case for these ministers. They could even use it to gain a higher status than their current one.

I am afraid that after this defeat, some ministers will be even more eager to surrender, and may have already been secretly plotting to surrender. If it drags on for too long, I am afraid that whether to surrender or not will not be decided by themselves.

Thinking of this, the daimyo stopped delaying and asked immediately: "In this battle of Tanbo Street, our army was defeated. Only 10,000 of the 70,000 troops withdrew, and the rest were either killed or captured. What do you think the Fire Nation should do next?"

Hearing this, none of the ministers dared to speak.

Keep fighting. In this battle everyone has witnessed how powerful these enemies from other worlds are. The Fire Nation cannot win.

Surrender would mean the defeat of the Fire Nation, and the price to be paid would be equally huge, so no one dared to speak it out easily.

Peace talks. The gap in strength between the enemy and us is so huge that even if we negotiate, we will be at a great disadvantage, which is no different from surrender.

Maybe we can use peace talks to buy time for development, but it is definitely not a good idea. The enemy will not be so stupid as to give them a chance to develop. There will certainly be many conditions to weaken the Fire Nation in various ways. And the peace talks can only last for a while. Sooner or later, the enemy will show its fangs again and will not give them time to accumulate strength.

As for aid from other countries, forget it.
