In a Ninja War, the terrain cannot stop the Ninja troops, whether it is mountains, rivers, dense forests, swamps, deserts, or snowy areas.
Ninjas walk on plain ground, so common battlefield common sense loses its effectiveness.
The only things that can be stopped by the terrain are the supply teams transporting supplies.
and evacuated civilians.
If you go by land, you have to send troops to protect you. The journey takes a long time and is easily intercepted.
It is not easy to evacuate all the people in the Kingdom of Whirlpool.
Fortunately, the country of whirlpool can travel by sea.
Konoha's fleet is being organized. As a coastal country, the Country of Uzumaki also has ships, and the evacuation can now begin.
The torches were lit, illuminating the night. The entire pier was crowded with people, forming a long queue. With the noise of the crowd and the cries of children, the night was not peaceful.
Such a scene was deeply engraved in the eyes of the little girl, and she was old enough to understand what was happening.
"Mom, where are we going?"
"Go to Konoha, Kyukina." The woman said softly, stroking her daughter's gorgeous red hair.
"What about dad?" Kushina asked.
"Daddy wants to stay and fight." The woman said sadly, looking in the direction of the village in the night.
We have to fight. If we can delay it for a while, more people will be able to evacuate.
At this time, intense fortification construction was underway in the village.
In the construction of earth escape ninjas, giant walls of rocks are constantly rising from the ground, getting taller and thicker. As time goes by, a giant wall of fifty meters high is formed.
It is extremely thick and can withstand the bombardment of escape techniques.
There are raised star-shaped prisms on the side of the city wall, criss-crossing like canine teeth, covering each other, forming a release point for escape techniques without blind spots.
In city defense warfare, there is a blind spot for shooting under the vertical city wall. Although high-altitude projectiles can be used to kill, more powerful escape techniques cannot easily attack enemy targets in the blind spot.
If you stick your upper body out of the city wall and strike vertically at the bottom, you will easily get a headshot.
In this case, you can extend a section of tower outside the city wall and attack the enemies under the city wall from protruding left and right positions.
In modern warfare, the castle tactic was ended by artillery, especially with the advent of aircraft bombing, and the city walls basically lost their defensive role.
But what I have mentioned is that once energy shield technology appears, castle battles will be resurrected.
Unfortunately, there is such a thing in the ninja world.
Enchantment.
For such a large defensive barrier, firstly, it cannot consume chakra, and secondly, it is closed. Once it is opened, although it can be defended, it cannot attack itself.
The role of the city wall is highlighted here, opening holes that can be attacked.
It allows a person to throw kunai to release ninjutsu. It is protected by a city wall, which has a huge advantage. It naturally comes with earth escape from the earth wall.
With the existence of escape skills, ninjas can build such earth and stone fortifications very quickly.
The ninjas of the Senju clan are particularly good at water and earth escape techniques, with huge chakra and superb skills.
Meiji has used them to build large facilities more than once.
But there is a problem. Ninjas can climb walls vertically. This problem can be solved to a certain extent.
The cheapest way is to pull barbed wire.
However, not to mention craftsmen, the Kingdom of Uzumaki has few resources such as iron, but it has a lot of kunai in stock, so the detonating talisman is affixed. This thing has a large reserve in Uzushio Village. It is basically a small hand-made detonating talisman.
expert.
However, it was only posted in a circular pattern in the middle of the city wall.
The city wall also has other anti-climbing designs, such as the classic rolling log, which can be thrown down and swept away. Jumping to avoid on a vertical surface like the city wall, for ninjas, they also have to fall freely. It is not surprising that those with weak strength will fall to their death.
A moat was dug under the city wall. Due to the ability of ninjas to tread water, no water was introduced. The moat, which is fifty meters deep and nearly a hundred meters wide, can be said to be a canal. It is majestic and huge. Standing at the bottom, the walls
The height even reaches over 100 meters, and it is especially huge and imposing.
On one side of the moat, a gentle slope rises.
This is to facilitate aiming. If it is flat ground and the enemy attacks, the defender must adjust the shooting angle as the enemy moves. The installation of a gentle slope can ensure that both sides are always on the same slope horizontal line.
At this time, on the fortification construction site, in addition to ninjas working, there were also swarms of insects that Yui channeled.
These large insects are moving and digging earth and rocks to speed up construction.
There are hundreds of them. Although the movement seems slow, the efficiency is not slow.
The whole body is golden and covered in heavy armor.
This is a scarab beetle. It is a well-established business. It secretes special mucus and rolls earth and rocks into balls. After drying, the hardness of the stone balls is extremely strong.
There are big and small beasts, the big ones are giant beasts several meters high, and the small ones are as big as a man standing upright, and they are engaged in different types of work.
The large jaws on its mouth and the horns on its head serve different purposes depending on the species.
From shoveling to bulldozing, from drilling to lifting, and so on.
This is Maggie's special engineering team.
If it hadn't been too slow and expensive to build, it wouldn't have been equipped with a turret.
The body structure of insects can grow to very large sizes. For example, dragonflies, without any modifications, can grow up to one meter in an environment with sufficient oxygen.
In experiments, when the oxygen concentration of the environment was increased, many insects increased significantly in size.
Maggie tried to increase the oxygen level.
That is, planting grass in the breathing holes of large insects. This modified parasitic fungus has strong photosynthetic ability and can provide a large amount of oxygen for the giant insects to consume.
No special modifications to the body's respiratory system are required.
It is a temporary transition plan.
The disadvantage is that you will lie down at night, although there are solutions similar to storing oxygen for temporary movement.
Logically speaking, losing light in a dark underground environment would make it impossible to move, but Meiji has a ruthless oxygen-producing machine, the Nydus Worm.
In addition, there is also a kind of insect at work.
spring thunder cannon
These bugs are only about the size of a fist and look like spiders. They are good at burrowing in the ground. As the moat is dug, they spread out on the ground section by section, then sneak into the ground and wait.
They are triggered by the vibration of sound, which is enough to distinguish even the slightest footsteps, and can distinguish the type of footsteps, and can distinguish between friend and foe through pheromones.
Defense work continues in an orderly manner.
The pace of war continues to approach.
It wasn't until three days later that the war really came.
Kirigakure's troops arrived at the coastline and were not in a hurry to attack. They established a camp on the coast and sent out reconnaissance ninjas to investigate.
The weather that day was very sunny, cloudless, and the sea breeze was warm, carrying a moist smell of the sea.
The two parties faced each other across the forest. At this time, they still didn't know how far the war would evolve.
In the Konoha Village, Miji opened her eyes with slightly closed eyes and whispered to herself: "Have we started?"
"It's begun." was the reply.
In a hidden cave somewhere, a huge black figure loomed behind him, Madara said to himself in a deep voice.
