Chapter 34: The Difference Between the Strong and the Weak
Flying in the air that is not too high is not very safe.
Ninjas on the ground still have strong anti-air combat capabilities, and low-altitude and low-speed flying targets can easily become targets for fire when they cannot quickly change their orientation with the help of force.
After issuing the order with an audible signal, Furusugi Bushui quickly landed near the bridge of the steel battleship and was greeted by the escorts.
It is enough for the captain to continue to sit in the command position and give orders, and attack the enemy's waters with heavy artillery, without seeking to cause effective damage, and to disrupt the enemy's movements.
The adjutant, who was busy with the front and back, after conveying a series of orders from Gu Shanbushui, stood not far behind him and waited for further instructions.
Frowning, he looked at the ancient Shanbu Shui who was in the thick fog outside the porthole, and asked with a heavy heart:
"What's your name? The response was timely and well done......"
The first time he noticed the summons of his boss, and deciphered the code code, stabilized his position, and also organized the team that everyone was panicking about to stabilize the line of defense.
"My name is Yasukawa Zaihara, and I am the descendant of the servant who followed my lord into the Gusugi family, and my grandfather is a son of a separate family, and I have been working in the military defense ......system for three generations."
"Oh? It's also a ...... of the family."
There are many distant relatives of Gu Shanbushui, like Yaskawa Zaihara, the kinship is relatively close.
The relatives of my grandfather's line are also one of the important dependents of Gu Shanbushui, and the amazing geniuses have not found it, and there are still some that can come in handy.
Gu Shanbushui, who had changed his soft attitude, chuckled and said:
"Many people say that the essence of the Yaskawa clan for a hundred years is concentrated on me and my father Masakoto Furusugi, and the rest are some wine bags and rice bags. This kind of ridicule is really too vicious, geniuses are very rare, and hard work is the norm, whether you can come out depends on your performance at critical moments. You...... It's eye-catching. ”
A good fighter has no outstanding achievements, and a talent like Yasukawa Zaihara who can do his part is very rare.
"Young master, Yasukawa Zaiyuan will not let you down, and I am willing to die for the family......"
"I remember, I don't need to stress about it. Go ahead, do your own thing, and hope to see your name in the evaluation report later......"
There are so many servants around Gu Shan's father and son, most of them are distant relatives who are related to each other, but there are few who can really be remembered by Gu Shanbu Shui.
The Togakure family, which started as a local tyrant, is the owner of the local Shinto valve, and in the eyes of the old-fashioned bigwigs, it is also a third-rate background, and after the Yasukawa clan, it actually began to show signs of rising.
Togakure Sunrise can be selected as a "school partner" to go to the Konoha Village Ninja School with Gu Sugi Bushui to "further study", it is really envious of others, and there are no sons and brothers who are familiar with each other in front of Gu Sugi Bu Shui, there is no one who is not blushing.
No matter how pretentious you are, you can't resist the big people above, Togakure Sunrise may have some talent and talent, but so what?
There are many buried talents, and how many can get ahead?
Who doesn't want to be the second "Toyin Sunrise" and be cited as a confidant by Gu Shanbu Shui?
Yasukawa Zaihara, who was in ecstasy, returned to his post under the fiery gaze of the surrounding crowd, calmed down, and while contacting the commanders of each ship, he moved the center of gravity of defense to the place where the ancient Shanbu water was.
Forcibly pressing down the anxiety in his heart, Gu Shanbu Shui walked to the bow of the ship, facing the cold and moist sea breeze, sensing the movement of the enemy in the distance.
"It's too slow! It's no wonder that in a head-to-head battle, the daimyo side is not worried at all, and those who are serious will be led by the nose."
The stupid and stupid armed forces, in front of the ninjas who are more mobile and more flexible, really can't take advantage, and the army that is good at battle is easy to be defeated by the ninja squad with special warfare and law and order warfare.
The fleet of ships moored in the harbor cannot exert its full strength, and the main guns of the battleships also have dead ends, and once the enemy grasps the loopholes, it is easy to break through.
It is very different from the ocean-going giant ship imagined by ordinary people, which can set sail immediately as long as the captain gives an order, and the preparation for the real giant ship is quite troublesome.
In the later generations, the level of science and technology, the mainstream diesel-powered merchant ships took nearly an hour from various inspections to preheating the spare car.
The current level of science and technology in the ninja world has not reached that level, and it is not a main engine that burns heavy oil, but a steam-powered ship, which burns a boiler, which is more troublesome in some aspects.
Compared with diesel engines, steam engines are mature technologies, not backward ones.
This is very different from the perception of the general public, and the diesel power that appeared later is not necessarily superior to the steam engine that appeared earlier. The two types of turbine technology have their own advantages and disadvantages, because of the change of ship development needs, so that the diesel engine occupies the mainstream, but the steam turbine technology has not been eliminated, but because of its advantages of not being picky about fuel, strong power and high stability, it is becoming more and more important in some fields.
As long as human beings are active in the atmosphere and still using fossil energy, it is impossible to be eliminated.
The armed forces of the five big ships were very strong, and on paper they far surpassed the enemy, but, in the real conflict, the initiative was not in their own hands.
This is also a true contrast between the secular class led by the daimyo and the strength of the ninja village.
The Uchiha clan, who inherited the blood of the six immortals and possessed the talent of the eye of the immortals, only one-third had the qualifications to become ninjas. At its peak, the Awakening Sharingan Uchiha clan did not exceed 20% of the ninjas in the clan, and most of the time, they hovered around 10%.
This is still a genius family with the blood of the gods, and the proportion of ninjas of other races is definitely far inferior.
Except for a very few ninjas, they are all mortals in the flesh, and they cannot afford to fight a war of attrition and a protracted war in the face of secular force with absolute numerical superiority. But ninjas are not stupid, and they are also proficient in strategy and tactics, and they will not do stupid things to attack the enemy's strengths with their own shortcomings. If you look at the weaknesses, you can also have the effect of dialing thousands of pounds.
This attack of the fog ninja is obviously also such a plan, and the organized escort team is very threatening, once the dense fog blocks the transmission of military orders, there is no need to worry.
The most effective method, of course, is to assassinate the nominal leader Gu Shanbushui, as long as he beheads or captures the young family governor, the entire fleet is almost in hand, and he can also extort a ransom by the way.
The Konoha ninjas, who understood this truth, learned of the whereabouts of their employer and quickly approached them. I haven't seen each other for a long time, and the faces of Maitkai, Shiranui Genma and Ebisu are all a little unsightly.
"It's really troublesome, I originally took the opportunity of the mission to take you on a tour of the mountains and rivers, and I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing......"
I don't know that Genma replied calmly:
"Don't worry, we Konoha ninjas won't give up on the mission. Now we need to figure out what the purpose of the enemy's attack is, if the target is us, it is a grudge between Konoha Village and Fog Hidden Village, but if it is aimed at the fleet, it will be a little strange! ”
The third ninja war has long been over, and the official members of the ninja village make a cameo appearance as robbers to rob the house, and it can't be said that there is no one at all, but it is obviously not normal to directly target a big financier like the Gusugi family.
In front of everyone's eyes, it is impossible to completely block the news, and it will inevitably be pursued afterwards, several fog ninja targets are too small to deal with, and the fog hidden village and the water country can't run away.
If something happens to Gu Shanbushui, the fog ninja will not want to receive the task of the Fire Country, and it will be difficult to come to the country for business, and just relying on the provision of the barren land of the water country, the life of the fog ninja will be sad.
"I don't know what reliable information the young family governor has? Maybe we can help with a reference ......"
Ebisu wasted no time in asking, and Furusugi Bushui did not hide it:
"There are a total of nine mist ninjas above the middle ninja, and two of them feel very dangerous, and as for whether there are hidden enemies, it is unknown. The salvo of the main gun just now, only the first round caught them off guard suffered a little loss, and the back was just suppressed by firepower! ”
It was still because the fog obscured the vision, and the cannon couldn't be aimed at all, so it was difficult to hit the agile ninja who wanted to shoot like this, so blind shooting could only rely on luck.
Gu Shanbu Shui does have a way to sense the approximate location of the other party, but it is impossible for Gu Shan's young family governor to go to the cannon in person, what kind of system does that look like?
"That'...... Wait for reinforcements or negotiate with the other side? ”
The upright Maitkai kindly asked,
"The other party didn't attack directly, but just trapped us, did you want to make a request?"
"Maybe!"
After hesitating for a while, Furusugi Busui vetoed the Konoha ninja's suggestion,
"The glory of the Gushan family does not allow me to sign an alliance under the city......"
"Not so exaggerated......"
The thick-eyed and big-eyed physical ninja sneered, wanting to perfunctory the past.
"You are ninjas, and you don't understand the weight of the name of the ancient cedar! I don't care what the other party wants to do, since I come to provoke him, I have to be ready to be killed......"
The young family governor who said this restrained his usual smile, gestured to the guards not far away, and immediately someone turned around and went to the deepest ammunition warehouse and took out a few strange-looking cannon barrels.
"The Kosugi clan, who are praised for their kindness, are not only the vice-presidents of the country by virtue of their wisdom, but there are always people who forget the true colors of our great nobles, who have both compassion and the anger of Prajna. Kill people, and you won't blink! ”
Opened the perception to the maximum, the smell of blood in the air wafted from afar, and it was obvious that someone on the Mist Ninja side was injured, but they did not retreat in a hurry, but instead turned the original banter into the idea of killing.
Gu Shanbu Shui, who no longer hesitated, asked a few servants to adjust the position of the cannon barrel, put a few fat big guys, which were obviously different from ordinary ammunition rockets, into it, and began to ignite.
The first time he was so hot, he didn't hesitate to prepare for a large-scale "washing the floor", and he didn't even think too much about the possible accidental injury, and the young family governor really couldn't suppress his negative emotions.
Since you honestly upgrade the monster farming, there are always people who come to make trouble, so give them a little color.
The fuse was quickly burned to the end, and the barrels of the peculiar guns, lined up on the side of the ship, let out a deafening roar, fanning out at the possible position of the fog ninja.
After the continuous explosion, the "shrapnel" fell to the surface of the water, and then experienced a second explosion, and the quenched blue lead pellet, like a storm, completely enveloped the sea surface.
Regardless of whether or not there is a fog concealment technique, it will not affect the exertion of its power.
The fireworks that rose up did not go out when they fell on the sea, they were secondary injuries after the splashing of fire oil, and if they were contaminated with people, they would not be extinguished for a while and a half, and it was impossible to stop without burning a big hole in the skin.
Sure enough, with the continuous crackling and roaring of the cannonballs, a terrible scream came from the thick fog.
By this time, the sun had set, the bright moonlight was sprinkled, and the billowing fog gradually dissipated under the scorching flames.
When visibility began to regain in the surrounding area, only the flames still floating on the surface of the sea, as well as a large patch of blood and a few pieces of tattered clothing, proved that there had been people here before.
"Did you escape? Count you as fast as you ......."
Although there is a thick fog blocking the view, it is impossible to see what is happening, but those movements can't deceive people, Ebisu, who is exploring the battlefield, can't help but shrink the pupils of his eyes behind his sunglasses slightly, and the half-broken stump arm gradually sinks into the deep sea at his feet.
Not far away, Shiranui Genma and Maitkai were also trying their best to hide the shock in their hearts.
"Indiscriminate attacks, brutal clearing shells, a bit like rain and dew, but the power and scope of the impact are outrageous."
I didn't know that the thousand books in the fire genre were no longer fishing, so he squatted down slightly, and lightly tapped the blood-soaked sea water with his hand a few times, proving that all this was really not an illusion.
A single shell can kill all the enemies in an area within the scope of a large school field, and there is no possibility of survival below the middle ninja, and even the defenseless upper ninja cannot escape, such a ...... Dozens of rounds will explode in Konoha Village, and the consequences will be unimaginable! ”
Of course, how to bring dangerous thermal weapons to Konoha Village without alarming the Konoha ninjas is also an unsolvable problem, but whether you can do it or not and whether you have the ability to do it are two completely different concepts.
It was also the first time that Furusugi Busui had used a cluster bomb against a ninja, and the effect was really okay, but ...... It seems too cruel.
"This thing is a trial work, purely handmade, the cost is high, if it is not a last resort, I am reluctant to use it."
With the current level of science and technology in the ninja world, it is almost impossible to mass-produce real killers, and only with the help of the power of ninjutsu can make up for the lack of industrial development and create some "high-quality" weapons.
The kind I just used, it's better than surprise, it's hard to say whether you can kill the upper ninja, and it's really effective to deal with the middle ninja who has acceptable strength and is not very powerful.
"No wonder...... For big nobles like you, most of the ninjas are hired as bodyguards, and the rest have vassals to do it for you, and they do a good job......"
"Can't say that!"
Gu Shanbu Shui said with a smile,
"The ninja world war still has to rely on the power of the ninja village, just relying on us to gather the ninja army to fight positional warfare, it is the result of losing both......"
Ninja, the general mission seems to be very expensive, but if you buy a life to go to the battlefield, it seems very cheap, the mercenary is dead, and you don't even have to give a pension, which is too suitable for being cannon fodder.
