Uchiha's Counterattack

Chapter 23: The riotous river bank

………………

After Heiquan led his men back to the camp, he dismissed them on the spot. The continuous search these days was really tiring. Heiquan decided to rest in the camp for a few days before continuing eastward to search for villages and villages along the way.

Refugees.

It is said that there are already a lot of people in the camp at this time. Including the tents erected around the camp, the number of people is about five thousand. The white tents are like scattered white grains of rice, densely arranged between the mountains and depressions, and in the wooden

On the fence, Konoha flags fluttering in the wind can be seen everywhere.

It was not just the refugees who were attracted by New Konoha's policies, but also many villagers who could no longer live. After all, not every village was as stubborn as the previous one and did not know how to adapt.

In fact, most of the villagers in New Konoha only went to say a few words, or even just mentioned that food and accommodation were included. Many villagers packed their luggage on the spot and yelled to follow New Konoha.

With food, shelter, and a nice big tree for shade, this fool wouldn't want to follow.

Some villages will also send people to inform nearby friendly villages, or friends and relatives in those villages, married daughters, etc. After going back and forth, the originally blocked news channels in the mountains and fields were opened up. In just a few days, there were

Many villagers came over spontaneously with parcels.

In addition to the dozen or so villages that Heiquan and the others had been leaving early and returning late in the past few days, villagers from hundreds of miles away who had heard the news had begun to join their team. All of them were bringing their families with them and were dressed in ragged clothes.

They are so poor that they would not be willing to leave their familiar homeland so easily if their lives were not unbearable.

There are ninja guards here at the camp, and the thousand soldiers brought by Zaemon are enough to maintain order.

There are also sufficient soldiers' grain pills and hot rice porridge and pickles provided every day to soothe the stomachs of the villagers and stabilize their emotions. In addition, they occasionally provide meat. Overall, more than 3,000 people gathered here.

The atmosphere in the campground is quite peaceful.

The only problem is that the field food brought out consumes quickly, and a group of people must be sent to Platycodon Village as soon as possible, and Platycodon Village is the real hub of Konoha. Food, weapons, and troops are increasing day by day. After all, it will become a new place.

The first level of Konoha's portal is guarded by the Hyuga clan and other clans.

……………………

Wow.

It is raining heavily.

A temporary earthen wall was built outside Platycodon Village, forcibly surrounding the surrounding riverbanks and surrounding grasslands, turning the originally small village into a vast military base.

A large amount of food and supplies are transported out of New Konoha Village every day. Nearly a hundred horse-drawn carriages pull nearly a dozen tons of supplies at a time. The flow is like a long snake wandering on the ground, twisting its waist and extending all the way to

In front of the base gate, several expanded warehouses were temporarily built in the Platycodon base for this purpose.

"How's the situation?"

As the leader of the clan, Hinata Hidaka led nearly half of the clan members to personally participate in the construction of the fortifications.

"The news has come from Mr. Baiquan that the first batch of refugees will arrive soon." Nohara Qian touched his beard and looked at the living ninjas who continued to use earth escape ninjutsu to build city walls, dig ditches, and build bridges in the rain.

They nodded with satisfaction.

"These living ninjas are good to use. It took three hundred people a week to build such a large base. It should be completely complete by the end of this month."

Nohara Chi said in an admiring tone, no one expected that the living ninja who had just graduated from the ninja school could play a leading role in construction so quickly.

Compared with ordinary villagers, they have higher endurance, faster speed, and stronger strength. The most important thing is that they have chakra and can use escape techniques to assist in the construction of fortifications.

They only need two people to carry hundreds of kilograms of wood in the heavy rain. When climbing the building, they directly step on the wall with both feet and rush up. There is no need for stairs at all. This also leads to their construction

The speed is very fast. If they don't worry about the shape and appearance, they can complete a three-story independent building every 2 hours on average.

In addition, if you have a better physical condition, you will be less likely to get sick, but always rushing to work in the heavy rain is definitely not enough.

So the logistics department simply took out the backlog of cloaks and modified them. They stamped the pattern of two crossed hammers on the back of the waterproof cloak and distributed it. This also accidentally determined the logo of the future construction ninja - that is

A hammer!

From the beginning of this expansion project to the present, four groups of nearly 500 people have invested in it. It took 6 days and 13 hours to fill in the lake, dig the foundation, build city walls and towers, and connect the living area to the inner city.

Attics were built.

The foundation of the earthen wall is 3 meters deep into the ground, with about 10 meters exposed. These walls are not built using ninjutsu such as the earthen wall, which will disappear once it loses its chakra maintenance.

Solid walls fixed with stone and concrete.

The living ninja also dug a canal outside the city wall to make a simple moat. The canal was connected to the nearby river, fences were built around it, smooth roads were built, and street lights and simple moats were even erected.

Chakra Power Plant.

There is a checkpoint every two meters, and there is a tower every 20 meters. There is a large searchlight on the tower. When the high-power searchlight is turned on at night, it will be as clear as day.

Four entrance and exit gates were dug around the city, and cordons and barbed wire were erected around it. If two machine guns were set up, you would probably believe that this was a German bunker in World War II.

But it is a pity that New Konoha failed to activate the technology of gunpowder, so there were armed clan ninjas on both sides of the cordon. Looking along the road, it seemed that there were nearly a hundred people. In fact, there were only twenty people in total, and the others were all

The shadow clones were used to put on a facade, and they all wore masks just in case anyone saw them.

There was no other way. All the main troops went out to pull people in. The only ones guarding the homes and homes were a thousand security guards from the village and more than a hundred family members. If they didn't step up, who would?

The other issue is about why Platycodon Village was turned into something like a military fortress. In fact, the initiator of this proposal was Jiraiya, the person who volunteered to be the person in charge was Hinata Hidaka, and the assistants were Nohara and the Kurama clan.

One of the reasons for the expansion of Platycodon Village is that the population has increased significantly this time, and a bag large enough to hold everyone is needed, and then batches can be slowly put into the pocket to ensure nothing goes wrong.

On the other hand, it is to prevent ninjas from other countries from coming to cause trouble. If it is just a small village, it has no deterrent effect at all. Since the ninjas here have graduated, we might as well expand it into a "satellite city". There can be more according to the needs of the plan.

Establish several such "satellite cities" to form the new Konoha's forward defense network.

Xia Nan thought about it and it seemed like it was okay, so she simply agreed.

However, military cooperation was only a secondary task for the living ninja. The main force was mobilized, and under the leadership of the three Inorakacho families, they went to open up the land around Konoha.

Two days ago, news came from the rear that agricultural development was going very smoothly, and it was basically certain that food production would increase by 10 times in the coming year. Soon the military food pills that people eat now will be replaced, so that even in the future

Even with a sudden increase in population, it can still provide the village with daily food supplies.

"If we continue building according to this feeling, it will be completed by the end of this month."

Nohara Qian sat by the stove and warmed herself up. It was raining heavily outside, and a line of raindrops hit the tiles, making a crisp knocking sound.

"How's it going over there, Tsunade-sama?"

Hinata Hidaka poured a glass of hot wine for Chi Nohara, and then filled it up for himself.

The two toasted each other and drank.

"Haha~ It went very smoothly."

"Compared to Kuroizumi, Tsunade-sama, Baiquan-sama has a higher appeal among the people. After all, she is Princess Tsunade, who has the title of Sannin and is known as the strongest medical ninja. Many villagers along the way took the initiative to join, and

As for the refugees, there are also a lot of them.”

"How many people are there?"

"About 5000-6000. Tsunade-sama leads all new Konoha ninjas. In terms of combat effectiveness, they are not as good as the Uchiha of the Military Police. But in terms of overall ability, the new Konoha ninjas are actually more approachable. Wait until they

By the time we get all the way from the border to this Platycodon City (satellite city), the number of people will probably exceed 15,000."

Hinata Hidaka rolled his eyes and mentally considered whether the current supplies were enough.

"Tens of thousands of people... I'm afraid it's very difficult to rely on this city alone. Even if they are all crammed into the New Konoha Village at once, it will probably cause a big chaos."

"That's why we have to use these small towns as a leakage net to keep out all the big debris, isn't it? As for the fish that slip through the net - entering New Konoha is a dead end, it is better to be cleaned out outside."

"Hehehe, that's true."

Nohara Chi's words made Hidaka breathe a sigh of relief, and when he thought about it, it was indeed the case. The outside of the village was just the first layer of screening net, just pick out some of the larger ones one by one, and then deal with them. As for the criminals who were lurking deeper,

Even for spies from other villages, when they arrive in the village, there will be a gendarmerie in front of them, followed by ID tracking and sky-eye surveillance.

To be honest, it's not as easy as staying outside.

………………

Some more time passed.

Rumors that New Konoha was searching for refugees and bringing them back to the village spread freely throughout the Land of Fire. Naturally, there was fuel from future newspapers behind it.

However, more and more people have seen with their own eyes that in forests, rivers, mountains and even border areas, troops composed of many Konoha ninjas are carrying large numbers of ragged refugee groups over mountains and ridges, across rivers, and across hills.

Facing the brilliance of the sun, head all the way east.

The Konoha ninjas are gathering the hundreds of thousands of refugees who are wandering around the Land of Fire, and taking them from the poor and destitute places to New Konoha.

Among them, the most appealing Konoha team is neither Kuroizumi nor Baiquan, nor is it Natsu Nan and Jiraiya who are already at the border of Tian Country at this time.

It was the Konoha troops led by Tsunade Hime. Along the way, they had gathered nearly 30 villages and twelve towns, with more than 20,000 people choosing to follow Tsunade and willing to go to the new Konoha Village.

When the time came to the end of November in the second year of New Konoha, Tsunade's troops had already moved 300 miles westward with the flow of people, and arrived at the east bank of the Nagagawa River on December 11th.

The Hyuga clan led 500 garrison soldiers to greet them in person, but unfortunately they could not see Tsunade because many unaccustomed people fell ill on the way. Tsunade transferred a hundred doctors from the hospital

We are taking care of the patients at the rear, and we estimate that we will be here in another three days.

Hinata Hidaka looked helpless after hearing this information. At this time, more than 30,000 refugees had gathered here.

More than 30,000 people gathered next to a river bank, which was called an endless river. It was filled with mountains and plains. As far as the eye could see, it was a dense black mass with surging heads everywhere.

Noises, shouts, and screams are everywhere, not to mention fights, thefts, and even murders and rapes. Although they will be suppressed and captured by the Konoha ninjas who arrive immediately, the consequences caused by

The bad influence has spread, making more and more ill-intentioned people ready to take action.

The extremely chaotic scene caused the Konoha guards stationed in Star City to take a breath of air, and the Konoha flags fluttering in the cold wind all sounded a sharp howling alarm.

"Murderers, rapists, group fights, thieves, prostitutes, kidnappers...these people are simply like criminal gangs. They only become ghosts if they are placed in a village and don't cause trouble."

"Even if I die, I don't want to let them in."

"Shut up! This is the policy of the Godaime-sama, and it is related to the future of New Konoha! If you dare to talk casually again, you will all be handed over to the military police!"

And just as the Konoha guards were worried, if they let people in directly, the entire Konoha Village would probably be in chaos overnight. If an ordinary dynasty faced this situation, they would usually choose to kill them directly.

Just disperse the chaos, but letting the mob enter the city is not within the scope of consideration.

If this group of people is violent and impulsive, if there are really a few confused rebels, it will indeed cause a lot of trouble.

"There are about three times as many people as hell. Lord Baiquan and Lord Kuroizumi's troops haven't arrived yet. This place is already overloaded!"

"Immediately launch the A-level preparation plan, transfer 500 security officers, 1,000 daily ninjas, and 2,000 young adults from the existing security system to arm them, and temporarily form a management corps. Then transfer them from the advanced classes of the ninja school

100 people form an Einsatzgruppe."

"Place 2,000 armed villagers around the satellite city. Since there are no more people inside the city, we can only distribute supplies and food outside the city. Place all the armed villagers around the distribution points to prevent riots."

"In addition, 1,000 people living in poverty were divided into groups of three to form a security team and thrown into the 20,000 refugees outside the city to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to cause trouble."

"In the end, the 100 combat ninjas from the advanced class were all thrown to the entrance to the east bank of the Nagagawa River. We also sent the only 10 Uchiha military police left in the village there. We can't let the enemy take advantage of the opportunity to rush in and cause trouble."

Orders were issued urgently, and the entire New Konoha Village was mobilized.
