Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 264: The Strategy of the Iron Nation
Iron country.

In front, there was the advice given by the Demon Kingdom's priestess who was watching the future, and in the back, there was the disastrous defeat of the Fire Kingdom. The Iron Kingdom, which had no ninjas, knew it could not win, so it made plans early and communicated with the Lightning Kingdom.

A week ago, the Iron Country had already launched a large-scale immigration strategy, gathering a large number of children and young people along the coast. With the help of a large number of ships from the Thunder Country, they fled to the Thunder Country for refuge by ship. At the same time, all manufacturing tools for the production of firearms and artillery were also evacuated.

Of course, evacuating a country's citizens by ship is undoubtedly very cumbersome and time-consuming.

Therefore, while evacuating, the Iron Nation also mobilized the entire country and summoned 40,000 samurai and more than 270,000 middle-aged and elderly people who were able to fight to go to the border of the Fire Nation to buy time for the national evacuation.

At the same time, they were equipped with more than 60 rifles, more than machine guns and mortars that had been produced. However, they had less ammunition, with only bullets and more than shells.

In addition, there are about 200,000 detonating talismans and a large number of arrows.
-
At the border between the Kingdom of Iron and the Kingdom of Fire is a huge forest of about 2,000 hectares - the Iron Forest.

The Iron Country's general Mifune stood in the forest, looking at the soldiers and recruits who were busy digging in the forest, his face heavy and sad.

"General Sanchuan, the spirit beast has sent a message that the enemy is still 300 kilometers away from us and will arrive in about seven days."

A Cloud Ninja suddenly appeared next to Mifune, half-knelt on one knee and said.

The Land of Iron is a land of samurai and has no native ninjas, so the Land of Lightning supported the Land of Iron with fifty ninjas to make it easier for Admiral Mifune to use summoning beasts to transmit intelligence and convey combat orders.

"How many troops does the enemy have? How many heavy tanks? How many light tanks? How many ordinary vehicles? How many heavy artillery?"

Mifune asked in a deep voice.

The intelligence and video footage of the Duancejie defeat had already been transmitted. In the battle of Duancejie defeat, they saw the ferocity of the enemy's artillery, the sturdiness of the enemy's tanks, and the well-equipped and elite enemy infantry.

"The total enemy strength is about 105, including heavy tanks (various types of tanks), light tanks (armored vehicles), ordinary vehicles (trucks for traction and transportation), and about artillery pieces ( mm and above)."

The cloud ninja who came to report quickly replied. In order to find out the number of these equipments, they sacrificed six ninjas and twenty scout summoning beasts.

"There are so many!" Mifune couldn't help but exclaimed when he heard it.

During the Battle of Duance Street, the enemy only deployed more than 300 tanks, which left the remaining defenders of Duance Street powerless to resist.

Now they had to face 670 tanks, more than twice the number during the Battle of Tansho Street.

"Admiral Mifune, urgent report, the Fire Nation's Jiaozuo blocking battle was a disastrous defeat, the enemy has new weapons, Jiaozuo has been lost, and the casualties are over 400,000. This is the video footage sent back by the observers!"

At this moment, another Cloud Ninja suddenly appeared in front of Mifune, knelt on one knee to report, and handed a scroll to Mifune. (There is also a movie theater during the Snow Country plot)

Upon hearing this, Sanchuan didn't care about being surprised and quickly took the sealing scroll.

Next to him, a Cloud Ninja immediately took out the sealing scroll he carried with him and opened it to remove the seal. Inside was a projector, a screen, and a black tent.

The Cloud Ninjas quickly set up the black tent, and then the group hurried into the tent, installed the screen and projector, and took the tape out of the sealing scroll and loaded it into the projector.

Images began to appear on the screen, showing the Fire Nation army busy building defenses at the foot of Jiaozuo Mountain. There were more than 400,000 troops in total (300,000 of them were civilians conscripted from Jiaozuo).

Even if they saw that kind of defensive formation, they couldn't think of a more perfect one, which was very targeted at the enemy's chariots. However, the scene changed, and there were rows of black dots flying in the sky in the shape of geese, about a hundred of them.

Then, Mifune and the Cloud Ninjas saw a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

The black spots were seen approaching quickly, and they turned out to be giant steel birds. The abdomens of these steel birds opened in the air, and soon they dropped cylinders from them.

These cylinders fell from the sky and landed on the defensive positions of the Fire Nation. In an instant, there were continuous horrific explosions with enormous power. When the explosions ended, the positions in the picture were completely shrouded in smoke that covered the sky.

After watching the video, Mifune and the other Cloud Ninjas who came in to watch all had heavy expressions on their faces.

Even though Mifune and the others did not see the details of the situation on the position, they knew at this time that the Fire Nation's defense under Jiaozuo Mountain had been completely destroyed, and the more than 400,000 people who built the position were also finished. There were only a few people who could survive such a terrifying and intensive explosion.

"Afterwards, Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, ordered a retreat to Jiaozuo. After that, the people of Jiaozuo evacuated. Lord Jiraiya gave up Jiaozuo and chose to retreat while setting traps to slow down the enemy's advance."

The video ended. The Cloud Ninja came to report in a low voice.

"I understand! Jiraiya is right!" Upon hearing this, Sanfun simply said this and then closed his eyes and began to think.

Although he led 310,000 troops to stop the enemy here, there were more than 400,000 people on the ground at the foot of Jiaozuo Mountain! As a result, the enemy's air attack directly killed more than 400,000 people.

How can his 310,000 men resist the enemy's attack?

"General Sanchuan, the reason why Jiaozuo suffered such heavy losses is mainly because the terrain below Jiaozuo Mountain is narrow, the troops are too concentrated, and 300,000 of them are conscripted civilians with no combat experience."

"The Iron Forest is different. The forest here is vast and dense, which is a natural obstacle. The enemy's chariots will definitely find it difficult to advance in the forest. Even if the enemy's big birds come, they will definitely not be able to cover the entire Iron Forest. As long as we disperse our forces, we may not be unable to fight."

A Kumo-nin suggested, noticing Mifune was lost in thought.

"You're right! The environment is different, we may be able to fight!" Hearing this, Sanchuan's eyes flashed.

Since dense defense doesn't work, then use dispersed defense.

He has 310,000 people, all of whom came here for the future of the country and for the young generations of each family. All of them came here with the intention of dying.

Since concentrated defense is not possible, then just scatter them into the Iron Forest like sesame seeds, and divide them into thousands or tens of thousands of strongholds. Even if the enemy is forced to take them out one by one, it will take him more than a month to take out those enemies from other worlds.

If we don't remove it completely, those people from the other world will have no hope of living in peace.

"Convene an emergency meeting immediately!"

Mifune immediately gave the order. A general plan had already appeared in his mind. Now they still had about seven days, which was enough time to make arrangements.

"Hi!"

Upon hearing this, several Cloud Ninjas quickly left the black tent.
