Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 278 The Friendship Bridge is gone
"what happened?"

"not good!"

Hearing the huge explosion outside, Orochimaru, the three heads of the Ino, Shika and Chou families, and Dodai all changed their expressions, and then rushed out of the tent in a hurry.

What they were most worried about was the bridge being attacked, as it was the only way for their family and forces to retreat to the Land of Earth. Once it was destroyed, perhaps these powerful ninjas would still have a chance to survive, but the ordinary people and low-level ninjas under them would probably have to wait for death.

The five people rushed out of the tent and saw that the dense crowd outside had stood up, all staring in the direction of the bridge in astonishment.

The five people also quickly looked in the direction of the bridge, and saw billowing smoke and dust rising from there. Judging from the distance and direction, that was the location of the bridge.

"Om~!"

Immediately afterwards, before they could rush over to check the situation, a huge sonic boom was heard in the sky.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to the sky, and then they saw a fighter jet with a sonic boom flying over again at an extremely fast speed, so fast that it flew over everyone's heads in just a blink of an eye, and then dropped two black objects in the direction of the bridge and flew away quickly.

"Boom~"

Two huge explosions followed, and huge flames and dust rose up to a hundred meters high in the direction of the bridge, with large amounts of bricks, stones, soil, blood and flesh splattered all over the sky.

Then, the buzzing sound was heard again, and another fighter plane flew over rapidly, and then dropped two 1,000-kilogram bombs in the direction of the bridge.

"Boom~!"

The explosion sounded again, and the smoke and dust produced by the explosion was high and low, with gravel and soil flying all over the sky, and many people were injured in shock.

But no one cared about it anymore at this moment, because for these ordinary people and low-level ninjas, the bridge was blown up and their only way to survive was gone.

Outside the headquarters tent, Tutai's face looked extremely ugly.

Orochimaru and the patriarchs of the Ino, Shika and Chou families all had gloomy expressions on their faces.

Judging from the location of the explosion and the height, range and density of the smoke, there is no doubt that the bridge has been destroyed.

But this is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is how to deal with the enemy's flying weapons in the future.

Unlike the helicopters seen in the Death Forest, the fighter planes that appeared this time were extremely fast and had a stronger attack power. In their opinion, there were almost no ninjutsu that could intercept this giant in the sky.

If the enemy has such a thing, they can undoubtedly easily cross the natural canyon and raid the Land of Earth, or even attack the rear from any direction across the Land of Earth.

If we can’t find the right way to deal with this kind of thing, then the plans of various countries to buy time for development will undoubtedly be very, very difficult, and they may not even be able to guarantee logistics.

Although intelligence about the Jiaozuo City blocking battle had already been leaked, because the scene was too shocking, in order to avoid damaging the resistance information of the entire ninja world, those who knew of the existence of the fighter planes did not publicize it, so not many people actually knew about it.

Orochimaru and the fleeing Ino-Shika-Cho family obviously did not know this information, nor did they know that various countries had already come up with some ways to fight against the fighter planes.

Looking at the gloomy faces of Orochimaru and the heads of the Ino-Shika-Chou clans, Dodai hesitated for a moment, but still said, "This is one of the flying weapons of the enemies from another world. It has an extremely fast flying speed and the ability to clear the battlefield. You have already seen it."

"There was a type that could hover in the air in the Death Forest. Another type appeared during the battle to block Jiaozuo City. It was even larger than this one. There were exactly 100 of them, and their attack power was even greater. Just one round of attack destroyed the entire position at the foot of Jiaozuo Mountain, killing nearly 400,000 people."

Hearing this, Orochimaru and the heads of the three families of Ino, Shika and Chou looked even gloomier. They also looked at Tutai in confusion, not understanding why Tutai wanted to tell them this at this time. This would undoubtedly be a huge blow to morale and might even cause a mass rout. For example, if they were blocking the enemy in the rocky forest and the enemy deployed this kind of aerial weapon, they would not be able to hold their line of defense at all. The power of the explosion was too great, enough to ignore the terrain of the rocky forest, and they had no way to deal with it.

"You don't have to worry too much!" Tutai said with a wry smile, "At present, all countries have found some methods and measures to deal with this kind of aerial weapons. In addition, according to the intelligence and analysis obtained, the enemy's aerial weapons can only maintain combat for a short time and have a limited number of attacks."

"Also, up to now, the enemy's aerial weapons have only appeared three times, so it is estimated that there are not many of them, and they cannot be deployed frequently. They can only be used in key battles. And it is not impossible to avoid the attack of such aerial weapons."

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru and the three heads of the Ino, Shika and Chou families also breathed a sigh of relief.

"But~~~" But then, Tutai's words made them worried again.

Zhiwen Tutai said with a heavy face: "The Friendship Bridge has been blown up. It is almost impossible to repair it in a short time. The enemy will never let us repair the bridge, and we don't have time to bypass the natural canyon."

These words also made Orochimaru and the other three feel heavy-hearted.

They all knew very well what this meant. If they did not pass through the natural canyon as soon as possible, what would be waiting for them would not only be a small group of enemy troops pursuing them, but more likely a large army of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of enemy troops. By then, the fate of the more than one million people here and the more than two million people from the Fire Kingdom and the Field Kingdom who were evacuating here could be imagined.

This also includes the assets of Orochimaru's Otonin Village and all the members of the Ino, Shika, and Chou families.

As for bypassing the natural ravine, it is tantamount to seeking death.

Not to mention that a small group of enemy pursuers have already arrived, a large force may arrive at any time.

For example, the Natural Cut Canyon is more than 170 kilometers long, and the actual distance that needs to be walked is much longer than this number. Even if they are in the central area, it will take at least seven days for ordinary people to bypass the Natural Cut Canyon, and even a ninja will need two days.

More importantly, the western side of the Tianqian Canyon extends all the way to the Snow Country, where there are more than 60,000 troops from another world attacking the Snow Country. This is undoubtedly a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth.

The southern side of the natural canyon extends to the middle of Taki Country. It's not that Taki Country will stop them, but because Taki Country has 150,000 alien world troops attacking. The enemy only needs to allocate some of its troops to annihilate all of them, and Taki Country will definitely not be able to stop the enemy or help them. Going there is just sending them to their deaths!

The four of them looked at Tutai again. Since Tutai was in charge of the evacuation, he must have a backup plan. Maybe this plan had already been started. But this plan would definitely not be easy to implement.

As expected, Tutai continued, "At present, it is unrealistic to take a detour. The only way is to build a new passage. When I came here, I had already dispatched two hundred ninjas who are good at earth escape to start the operation. They used earth escape to fill a new road. At present, half of it has been filled, and it will be completed in another five days."

"Next, I will dispatch all earth escape ninjas and call on everyone to participate. We will try to build a road in the canyon that can be evacuated quickly within two days."

"However, the enemy is likely to attack again to cause damage, so the time required will not only not be two days, but may even be twice as long as expected."

Hearing this, Nara Luming pondered for a moment and said seriously: "We will hold on as long as possible, but ~ you have seen the ferocity and ability of the enemy. It is difficult to do it with our current manpower. We need more manpower."

Dodai shook his head and said in embarrassment: "I need a large number of ninjas to build a new passage, and I need to be ready to repair it at any time. I can't give you more manpower, but I can mobilize the old people among the civilians to fight with you."

Abandoning the elderly to buy time for the young to retreat is a helpless move, but it is also a way to reduce future burdens. After all, the Land of Earth will have to bear too many people in the future.

In fact, from the beginning, he had this plan when he arranged for the elderly to evacuate last. If the enemy's large force came to pursue, then these elderly people would be the last line of defense to buy time for the young people to escape.

It's just that it's not nice to say it, and it will be criticized. But this is the reality.
