The soldiers' grain pills tasted awful, so many commoners put down their stoves and started a fire to cook.
"Hey! Over there, quickly put out the fire, don't let the enemy find our whereabouts! "
"Enemy? Where are they? Who can find us in the wilderness! "
"Yes! Ninjas can make a fuss about nothing! "
Everyone started to gather firewood, and soon, the fire was accompanied by smoke, decorating the night sky … The ninjas could only look at the tens of thousands of people doing stupid things … But they couldn't stop them.
"Hokage-Sama, our dissuasion is useless, what should we do?"
"Be alert, we can only be alert, we can only hope that the millions of troops of the Land of Fire haven't infiltrated this close …"
Kakashi's voice was weak, he can use his decisiveness to kill the ninjas, but civilians and ninjas are different!
He closed his eyes and sighed in his heart: If only I had the power of the first Hokage, I would be able to relax a lot …
The Land of Fire has sent all its troops to set up a blockade on Konoha's possible path!
A few kilometers away, the enemy's vanguard saw something strange in the sky. The commander personally rode his horse and used the Land of Fire's most advanced military binoculars (the detection range is better than the Byakugan, but it doesn't have the ability to see through things, but in an open field, it's better than the Byakugan) and immediately found Konoha's people living in the distance.
"Camping in the wild, such a large scale life, ninjas won't make such a low-level mistake, Konoha's civilians? The wise and mighty Daimyo, with just a decree, those burdens stay with them, it's greatly convenient for us to do things! "
"General, should we deploy the arrows immediately?" The Vice General asked.
"Don't worry, our main force isn't here, it's difficult to catch them all at once … And you see those ninjas, all of them are heavily guarded, I'm afraid they can't stop those civilians, so we should take precautions! At this moment, we should relax their vigilance, and when their defense is at its weakest, we should catch them off guard! "
"Then what do you mean?"
"First, ambush them, pay close attention to their movements, and quickly inform the rear troops to gather, in front of them, there is a valley surrounded by mountains, that will be their cemetery!"
"The general is wise!"
"Hmph … Ninjas, a group of inferior races that only know how to fight. In front of the Dao of War, they are nothing but chickens and pottery dogs!" The commander looked at them with disdain and pulled his horse back.
Even after the commoners finished eating, nothing happened!
After putting away the stove, they looked at the ninjas with ridicule. "See, you're making a big deal out of nothing! Isn't everything fine … "
"Let's go and pee!"
"I want to shit!"
"Let's go together!"
The vigilance of the commoners completely relaxed.
"Throw, throw, throw, throw! Look at the power of my shuriken! " In an open space, many children gathered together and threw Kunai everywhere. The props used by ninjas to fight bloody battles became toys in their hands.
There was even a devilish brat who said, "Have you guys heard of explosive charms? With a bang, it can blow up rocks. Let's go ask the ninjas for some so we can blow up the ant nest!"
"Hahaha, even my dog doesn't eat the pills given by the ninjas!" There was also someone who used soldier food pills to feed his dog.
Looking at this scene, the ninjas were disappointed and bitterly disappointed. Kakashi's face was filled with exhaustion. The order was more chaotic than expected. Ninjas who risked their lives and civilians who were used to living a comfortable life were a combination on the battlefield!
It was more awkward than expected.
Shikaku came over and said, "Kakashi, do you want to listen to my words? We are now abandoning them and moving forward alone. Maybe it is the wisest decision … "
Kakashi looked at the night sky and said, "Once we reach the Dark Country, everything in the past will be over. Whether it is the grudges or the long-standing ninja system, everything will be reshuffled. At least at the end of Konoha, I want to pursue the path of Konoha's ninja to the end!"
Shikaku laughed and said, "Sure enough, it is you … Kakashi, I think all the ninjas who stay will respect your decision!"
That night, the commoners slept on the spot. The ninjas didn't sleep at all.
The next day, after the commoners woke up, they started to cook again and consumed the food they carried with them. The ninjas could only eat the wild fruits they found nearby or dry food to satisfy their hunger.
At noon, the army continued to move forward and walked to a valley surrounded by mountains.
"Stop!"
"Shikaku?"
"The terrain ahead is very suitable for ambush. If I were the enemy's general, I would set an ambush here! I propose to take a detour! "
"Isn't it groundless fear? So far, we haven't seen the enemy's shadow. "A ninja said.
"And if we take a detour, it is bound to increase the time we stay here."
"Maybe I am worrying too much, but if I am right, what awaits us will be eternal damnation!"
"Let's do as Shikaku said, detour!" Kakashi made a prompt decision.
Seeing that the ninjas weren't going to go straight but detour, the civilians in the rear immediately complained, "Hey! Ninjas, why don't you take the shortcut and detour? Are you sick in the head? "
On the mountains on all sides, tens of thousands of elite soldiers were lying in ambush.
The commander said unexpectedly, "This is really unexpected, these ninjas have a strategic mind!"
"Let them take a detour like this? Then all the hard work we put into making the deployment would be wasted. "
"Oh, it's not difficult … They are mobilizing so many people, what do they lack the most?"
"Food!"
"Throw some food down!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A large number of bags of food fell from the sky …
Some curious commoners stopped in their tracks and went forward to take a look. They exclaimed in surprise, "This is food! It's food!!!"
"What, food!?"
What they lack most now is food. When they heard that there is food, they rushed forward like a swarm of bees!
"Food!! There is food in front!!! "Looking at the scattered sacks on the road ahead, they rushed forward regardless.
"Great!! With this food, we can escape to other countries by ourselves, we don't have to stay with these ninjas at all!! "
The ninjas who were marching in front heard the strange sound behind, "What's going on!?"
"The civilians said that they found food there!"
"Food? Who would throw food there for no reason?! "
"Needless to say, it's a trap!"
On the mountain peak.
The commander laughed and said, "Haha, it was originally a desperate plan, but it worked … It seems that I underestimated the intelligence of these ninjas and the stupidity of these civilians! Shoot!! "
Whoosh! Whoosh!
While the people of Konoha were immersed in the joy of food falling from the sky, a rain of arrows came whistling through the sky …
"Ahhhhhh …!!!" In an instant, the bottom of the valley became hell on earth!
"Go back and protect them!" Kakashi took the lead and turned back.
The ninjas behind gritted their teeth and followed without fear of death!
The first battle between Konoha and the fire country didn't result in the destruction of Konoha's army because of the desperate struggle of Konoha's ninjas.
After the battle, both sides counted the casualties.
Konoha's civilians died: 15341, 25124 injured, 20324 of them seriously injured!
Konoha's ninjas died: 4521, 6525 injured, 3846 of them seriously injured!
Fire country's soldiers died: 217, 348 injured, 312 seriously injured! (All of them were killed by Killer B's small bijudama)
"Mercy is Konoha's weakness, but it is also its glory!"
