Once upon a time there was an Uchiha

Chapter 161 59. Deserters
Intensive gunshots resounded through the forest, and countless birds flew from the treetops.

The soldiers looked terrified, looking at the black figure holding a long knife in front of them.

"Is it Lord Mountain God?"

Doubts appeared in the hearts of the soldiers. In a country with 800 million gods, people would always attribute mysterious phenomena to the gods.

"No..." the captain raised his hand and said calmly, "It's avoiding bullets, and it's also afraid of bullets."

The captain's words were like a booster, hitting the soldier's heart.

The soldiers picked up their guns one after another and continued to shoot.

And that black shadow was very fast, shuttling through the bushes to dodge bullets.

Suddenly, there was crackling in the woods, and deep single holes appeared in the trunks on the ground.

The black shadow is naturally Uchiha Lihuo's shadow clone. Facing the concentrated fire of guns, Uchiha Lihuo dare not use the method of cutting bullets with a knife.

The movement that utilizes maneuvering transfer can deal with them better.

Pulling a knife and knocking out the single soldier, Uchiha stepped forward from the fire, cut off the barrel of the firing gun, and the barrel exploded with huge sparks.

These soldiers are not at the same level as the evil spirits. They are fragile, and even with rifles, they are quite easy to deal with.

While Uchiha Lihuo was attacking, Tanjiro and the others approached quietly.

They hid in the trees, suddenly jumped up and appeared from the air, and their sharp sword skills quickly made the soldiers lose their ability to resist.

Clang!
Tanjiro picked up the bullets and quickly appeared in front of the enemy, taking away the guns from the soldiers.

The soldier who lost his gun stared blankly at Tanjiro, thinking of fighting with the dagger at his waist.

In the face of a ruthless person who can split bullets and cut off the barrel of a gun, they will never fight in close quarters anyway.

Watching all this, the captain urged the soldiers around him to fire.

After the soldiers quickly reloaded, the artillery whistled sharply.

Then a flame appeared in the center of the battlefield, and there was a huge shock wave and roar.

"This should be able to solve them." The captain's tone was full of uncertainty, and the scene of the knife slashing the bullets before was unforgettable.

"It's obviously just a group of children, but it's surprisingly scary."

After the flames flickered, the remaining flames on the ground burned the bushes, forming black smoke.

The shadow avatar that made a frontal assault was forced to disband in the explosion. Facing the artillery attack, Uchiha Lihuo could only choose to dodge.

But the outcome of the battle did not change. After a few minutes, most of the soldiers fell to the ground, losing their ability to resist.

Accidental injury was unavoidable. Looking at the squadron leader lying beside him in a pool of blood, the adjutant's face was full of despair.

They were not fighting ordinary people. After seeing the thick tree cut off at the mouth of the bowl and the flying bullets being picked up, the adjutant knelt on the ground, seriously doubting the orders of his superiors.

Uchiha Lihuo put the knife back into its sheath, looked at the soldiers on the ground, and said to Tanjiro: "Take care of it."

Then, he activated illusion to control the only remaining soldier in front of him. Under the erosion of Chakra, he quickly got the information he wanted to know——the location of the highest commanding officer in the battle.

After knocking out the adjutant, Tanjiro and the others also disarmed the soldiers and dragged them into the shade.

"Don't move around here, watch your surroundings, I will come as I go."

Tanjiro and the others nodded.

Uchiha Lihuo planned to go to the enemy's rear to find out what happened to the enemy. After a few jumps, he activated the transformation technique and turned into an ordinary soldier.

A ninja is a job like a sentry assassin, and Uchiha Lihuo can easily sneak into the enemy's interior.

……

the other side.

Other columns lead the battlefield.

After a gunshot, the battle broke out. Unlike the Lihuo side, someone here has already been shot and lost the ability to fight.

Looking at the injured swordsman, the pillars were very anxious, but they couldn't come up with any good solution.

I had no choice but to go to the danger myself, hacking a path in the barrage of bullets.

The uniforms of the Ghost Slayer Squad were specially made, enough to withstand the attack of bullets. Even so, the swordsmen still felt the pain, and while trying to protect their heads, they opened up a way to get close to the enemy.

The speed of the swordsmen was very fast. After approaching the enemy at close range, the situation of the battle had already begun to turn. In a narrow space, the firearms could not shoot effectively.

Shrouded by waves of spray and flames, the attacking soldiers began to retreat, leaving behind their front-line teammates one after another, and headed to the rear side.

Tie up the struggling soldiers with ropes, Butterfly Ninja looked at the other fleeing soldiers and frowned: "The power of guns has exceeded our imagination, it is very difficult to disarm them without hurting them." .”

Giyuu and Xingshoulang nodded, this is indeed a difficult problem, and when facing humans, their sword swings cannot be as smooth as they are facing evil spirits, and there is always a grudge.

"The battle must be resolved as soon as possible." Butterfly Ren's eyes were getting colder, and he said in his heart: "If I guess correctly, these troops are used to consume our strength without misfortune. Once night falls, they will attack."

At this time, Xing Shoulang said: "Let's continue to pursue, quickly deal with them, and recover our strength for the night's battle."

Yoshihiro nodded approvingly.

Now this kind of crude firearms can't play a role for Zhu, and they are most worried about the upper strings hidden in the dark, those are the enemies.

The deserters were running in the mountains, their morale was low. After seeing the swordsman whose speed and strength far surpassed that of ordinary people, their three views began to collapse, and they wondered if they were burning sticks in their hands.

They retreated all the way along the route when they came. After running for several kilometers, the deserters turned around and saw no swordsmen chasing them.

"What the hell are those people? Why are we fighting them?"

"It's the boss's order, just obey it obediently, I don't want to be forced to commit seppuku."

"That can't be fought recklessly with swordsmen like those monsters. I saw a barrel made of metal and was cut in two by them."

"Then we can only hide here and wait for the end of the war. I don't know what's going on up here."

The deserters obviously lost the desire to continue fighting, and hid in the mountains and forests, waiting for the end of the battle.

Similar phenomena happened everywhere in the mountains and forests. The morale of the soldiers who didn't know why they were fighting was low, and they didn't even meet their superiors, but only heard the orders issued.

Uchiha Lihuo walked swaggeringly in the mountains and forests. When the soldiers he met saw familiar faces, they greeted them eagerly and then passed by.

"It seems that the person I imitated with the transformation technique has a high official position in the enemy army and is very popular. Fortunately, this way it will be easier to enter the enemy's interior."

Passing through the camp, Uchiha Lihuo saw a private house, which was the temporary headquarters.

As soon as he stepped into the boundary of the private house, Uchiha Lihuo sensed a familiar smell.
