Chapter 50: A Sharp Turn

The chaotic battle continued all night, and it was not until dawn that calm returned to Konoha's camp.

During the night, Hanyu and Hachiki encountered a total of three waves of enemies, two two-man squads and one four-man squad, and they took advantage of the terrain, familiarity with the environment, and their speed and physical superiority to take out the eight enemies without taking much damage.

It can be said that for the Hanyu duo, although the one-night battle is dangerous on the line of life and death, the frequency of the battle is not as frequent as imagined.

There were plenty of ninjas guarding the area, so the barrier around the frontline hospital was not breached until the end of the battle.

This part of Shayin's purpose was not achieved, but before dawn, they did not fall in love with the battle, and chose to quickly withdraw from the battlefield......

After leaving behind a corpse in the ground.

Not only did the Konoha side that was raided suffer heavy casualties, but the attacking side of the Sand Hide was not much better, in fact, the casualty rate and exchange ratio of the two sides tonight were not much worse.

All thanks to the order that the Uchiha Mirror conveyed after the destruction of Konoha's chain of command, it was precisely because of that simple order that the situation and the hearts of the Konoha camp were stabilized.

The next morning, Hanyu, a little tired, sat on the ground and rested dryly, and not far from him lay the corpse of an enemy, but it was not worth caring about.

A little farther away, Sakushige Hagi was lying there resting...... Because of his age, his consumption seems to be much greater than Hanyu's.

With the help of the light of the sky, Hanyu observed the situation around him, and it seemed that although the Konoha camp had been raided, it didn't seem to be to that level of unsustainability, and this level of damage was completely bearable.

Maybe Shayin's plan failed? Hanyu couldn't help but think so.

It was impossible for a ninja of Hanyu's level to have information about the battle situation come to Hanyu's level so quickly, and even many details about last night's battle he would never have had a chance to know, after all, he was just a small soldier, but unexpectedly, just when Hanyu felt that he should stand up and help clear the battlefield, Koga appeared in front of him again.

Because of the decentralization of command last night, Koga is still the top person in charge here at this time, and he is also Hanyu's "top boss".

"Dr. Koga, are you alright?" Hanyu saw that the other party looked a little embarrassed, so he asked. At this time, one of Koga's hands was hanging from his neck, apparently he had been injured in the previous night's battle.

Koga shook his head, he didn't care about his injury, but then said to Hanyu, "Hanyu, emergency, now you have to return to the village immediately. ”

"Back to Konoha?" Hanyu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stood up, he didn't quite understand the order. You must know that the Konoha camp has just been raided, and when the force is weak, shouldn't you stick to the place and wait for help, why return to Konoha?

It's anomalous.

"Am I with my squad?" He then asked.

Because they belonged to different areas last night, Hanyu didn't know what was going on with the rest of his team, and he couldn't even be sure if all three were still alive.

But Koga once again denied his claim, "No, it's just you, and your team is still here...... You have to go back to the village, where you and your skills will come in handy. ”

Hanyu was taken aback, and then guessed and said, "Could it be that something is wrong with Mr. Mishino?" ”

At present, Hanyu's relationship with Konoha is relatively shallow, and apart from Mishino, he really can't think of a reason to transfer himself back to the village - he hasn't been on the front line for long, and he hasn't fought a few serious battles.

"No, it has nothing to do with Mishino, but it's really an emergency...... When you arrive in the village, everything will be clear. Koga said.

Since he refused to explain, Hanyu would definitely not get an answer as to why he was going back to the village, so he continued to ask, "Do you want to leave now?" ”

"Immediately." Koga emphasized.

Now Hanyu understands, no matter what the specific task is, but at least it is really urgent: "I understand, then I'll go and prepare." ”

But just as Hanyu was about to turn away, Koga grabbed him again, and he squeezed Hanyu's arm tightly with the hand he could still move, and then leaned over and whispered, "It's really an emergency, you must protect Mishino." ”

Looking at the other party's serious expression, Hanyu had to nod very seriously, but at this time, his psychology was even more chaotic...... What really happened to Konoha?

It's a pity that he doesn't have much in his memory about a ninja war.

The task was extremely urgent, and Hanyu didn't have time to rest and rest, so he directly joined up with three unfamiliar ninjas again.

"Got all the people? Then let's go. ”

After the assembly, the ninja who took the lead did not hesitate to give the order to go, and before they could go, several of the same team had already left...... It can be seen that Konoha is mobilizing a large amount of strength to return to the village.

Could it be that Shagakure attacked the village at the same time as raiding Konoha's frontline camp? How could such a thing be done?! But if that's not the case, why send a large number of ninjas out of the front line?

Everything doesn't make sense.

Hanyu didn't have a problem with the combat mission, but he just hoped that he wouldn't get involved in any conspiracy. His mind turned a thousand times, but the movement of his feet did not stop.

He followed the group out of the camp and set out on the journey back to Konoha. However, before he was about to leave the camp, Hanyu suddenly paused in his steps.

"What's wrong?" The captain of the team immediately noticed his anomaly.

"No, nothing, just seeing an 'acquaintance'." Hanyu said.

And it was also a dead "acquaintance", and while passing by a team of ninjas sorting out the corpses, Hanyu saw the logistics ninja who had picked out his weapon yesterday...... of corpses.

The captain was a little dissatisfied with Hanyu's reaction, and he frowned and said, "Don't be distracted, concentrate on the mission." ”

The group left the Konoha camp and suddenly increased their movement speed, and soon they crossed the border of Kawanokuni and returned to the territory of the Fire Nation.

At this time, the atmosphere in the team seemed to finally relax a little, so Hanyu overheard the conversation between the two ninjas:

"If it weren't for the hesitation of the three generations of agents, what happened last night would not have happened at all."

"Well, he's still not decisive enough, he lacks the responsibility and experience of the Hokage, if it's the second generation......"

Listening to the conversation between the two, they seemed to put the blame for what happened last night on Sarutobi, and this thought made Hanyu pout, and he scoffed a little...... What the three generations of Hokage lack is prestige and qualifications, rather than experience and responsibility, what is the matter with the raid of the sand hide?

And "if it's a second-generation eye", why don't you think about things more beautifully, and say "if it's a first-generation eye"?

But also, you can't blame these ninjas for their superficial cognition, you must know that the ninjas are all elementary school graduates, they don't have much education, most of them only know how to fight and kill, where do you understand what strategy is.

At present, the three generations of Hokage are actually on the front line, but when the enemy is equal in strength and the battle situation is stalemate on the frontal battlefield, he did not directly put the ninja team he led into the front line, but chose to set up a new camp on the border of the Fire Country.

If you rashly merge the two forces into one, it will not cause the situation to tilt in Konoha's favor, the reason is very simple, only Konoha understands the increase of troops, doesn't Sha Yin understand?

Therefore, the three generations of Hokage are divided into two battalions, which are horns for each other, in case of accidents, and in order to deal with the complete approach, which makes complete sense strategically.

But now it seems that because something went wrong with the front-line camp, it seems that the approach of the three generations of Hokage is beginning to be questioned...... You know, Sarutobi is just acting Hokage now.

For a leader with insufficient prestige, the mistakes of his subordinates are the responsibility of the leader.
