Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Beginning of the Chaotic War
The wind and sand are rolling, and the loess is all over the sky.
It was once the most prosperous town in the northern part of the Land of Winds, but after the war, it was reduced to ruins.
It was populated with outcasts, robbers and a large number of merchants.
War and famine may be a nightmare for ordinary people, but for merchants, it is also profitable.
Human trafficking! With just a little bit of food, you can get low-priced slaves from this group of hungry people, and if you are beautiful and handsome, you can multiply your profits by tens or hundreds of times.
However, under the pursuit of the army of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind, a large number of rebels came to this town, and the slave trade was immediately abolished. The merchants and their guards were also banished.
After harvesting a large amount of supplies, the rebels were temporarily stabilized internally.
But then an even more serious problem arose, and the exiled merchants revealed information to the Daimyo's army, and their location was revealed.
The shogunate's army would arrive at any moment, but the rebels had no means of countering it.
"I can only transfer again!"
In the walled battle room, the leader of the rebels finally gave the order.
There are many rebels, and there are a large number of old and weak among them, and if they are transferred again, I don't know how many people will die.
The country of the winds has a harsh climate and scarce water sources, and large expanses of yellow sand have been submerged outside the town. From the outside, the town looks like an island in a sea of sand.
The town had food and water, and while it was a bit of a stretch to feed the rebels, it was more than nothing. When the leader of the rebels gave this order, his men were hesitant.
"Can't we resist?"
This was the voice of the vast majority of the rebels in the humble conference room.
The leader of the rebels shook his head and said, "I just received information that there are dozens of sand ninja in the army that encircled and suppressed us this time!" We can deal with the Daimyo's army, but we can't deal with the sand ninja in the army. ”
"Are these abominable ninjas again? How many times have you done this! ”
For the resentment of the ninjas, this group of rebels can be said to be deep in the bone marrow. Every victory you can win against the shogunate army is lost because of the addition of these ninjas.
"It's just a few dozen sand ninjas, what's the big deal."
A soft female voice echoes, and pieces of paper fly. In the unbelievable eyes of a rebel, the pieces of paper condensed into the figure of a graceful woman.
Xiao Nan appeared in front of a group of rebels, causing a wave of panic.
"You're a ninja?"
The uneasiness prompted the rebels to draw their swords, but before they could get closer, they were knocked to the ground by pieces of paper flying in the air.
"No need to make a move!"
The leader of the rebels stopped his men. He knew very well that the ninja in front of him was very special, and if she wanted to wipe out all the people here, she was afraid that it was only a thought.
"What do you want to do?"
"I can provide you with weapons that are sufficient to fight the shogunate army and the sand ninja."
"What do you want from us?"
Xiao Nan smiled and took two steps forward. The light and shadow change, but the charming face is like a holy god, like a dream.
"The leader is a wise man. It's just what I want, and you can't afford it now. If you can defeat the shogunate army, I'll come back to you again. ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Nan's body turned into a white body and flew in all directions.
"It's beautiful!"
Among the rebels, it is not known who made this exclamation.
"Are these rebels insane?"
When the shogunate's troops arrived at the rebels' town, they found that instead of fleeing, they had formed a position on the high ground outside the town.
"Strange, what's that big round cylinder?"
Haishu led dozens of ninjas to follow the general who controlled this army for protection, and also to facilitate the eyes and ears of this army and detect the enemy.
"My lord! The situation is not clear, so let's wait! ”
The general of this army rode on a horse, with a katana at his waist, and his face was unparalleled.
"Lord Haishu is too worried, it's just some desperate homeless people, what can be weird. At such a short distance, my cavalry could crush these outcasts with a single charge. ”
According to common sense, these outcasts without any shield protection only needed a charge from the cavalry.
The general drew his long katana and commanded his cavalry: "Charge!" ”
A cavalry of camels roamed the desert, spreading yellow sand.
Haishu stared at the rebels' formation, a little strange, the cavalry team was already close in front of him, but this group of rebels was still indifferent.
To be precise, the actions of these rebels made Haishu a little incomprehensible. They opened the box next to the big cylinder and stuffed something strange from the box into the large cylinder.......
Bang bang........
Brilliant light shone brightly, a huge sound echoed in the wind, and cannonballs sped out of the large barrel, showing extremely powerful blasting ability.
"Fire coverage!"
The leader of the rebels shouted hoarsely as to the methods of using the weapons and the terminology of manipulation according to the instructions given to them when they found them.
You don't have to worry about accuracy and power, as long as hundreds of Phi Phi cannons are used together, the area damage caused by the continuous spray of those cannonballs is no less than any A-level ninjutsu.
Even a well-trained shinobi would not be able to consistently use three or four A-rank ninjutsu in two minutes.
The ground shook, and the shogunate cavalry that had charged ahead had already collapsed. The formation of the shogunate army was also disrupted by the weapons used by the opponent in order to achieve a surprise victory.
Haishu prepares to lead the ninjas around him to charge to destroy the position of this group of rebels, but the unexpected comes in vain.
"Tu Dun. Earth Dragon Wall! ”
Seeing a cannonball flying towards him, hitting the general with unmistakable accuracy, the sea tree summoned a wall of earth from the sand to block the attack of the cannonball.
But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the general's mount turned around and ran because he was frightened.
The general was a trained rider, but in a hurry, he couldn't control the frightened horses under his seat and fell from them.
"Retreat! Retreat! ”
A helpless voice came out of the mouth of the shogun, and under the escort of a group of ninjas, the shogunate's troops hurriedly retreated.
Seatree turned his head to look, and the rebel camp behind him erupted in loud cheers.
For the first time, with the intervention of the ninjas, the shogunate's army did not emerge victorious.
Haishu looked at the faintly gathering dark clouds in the distant sky, and vaguely seemed to realize something.
