"What?"

"Konoha actually made such a choice?"

"Is that Third Hokage out of his mind?"

"No, there must be some conspiracy here, right?"

After Shoji said these words, not only did Huangtu's pupils in the opposite position suddenly shrink, but Akato, Yashiro and other important Iwagakure village jonins in the positions below also burst into an uproar.

.

It's not that Konoha's choice is outrageous. From a general point of view, when a ninja village faces the attack of two powerful enemies, it is indeed the most reasonable choice to fight and pull, but this is what happens to Konoha.

Look, why does it feel so unreliable? In the past three great ninja wars, has Konoha ever behaved like this?

When was there not a direct challenge to the siege of two or even three ninja villages?

The most important point is why did you choose to agree to the conditions of the Kumogakure Village, and choose to forcefully reject their Iwagakure Village? Is this looking down on their Iwagakure Village? Anyway, most of these people below look at Konoha

This is the attitude that the top management wants to show.

At this moment, I was obviously more angry than surprised.

The ninjas of the five major ninja villages all have their own pride, and the same is naturally true for the Iwagakure. Their Iwagakure village was originally the victor in the Third Ninja War, and has been at its peak in the past two years.

How can you tolerate others looking down on you? Even the Hidden Leaf Village, which is still ranked number one in the ninja world!

"It seems that this is the choice Konoha has made. While using conditions to stabilize Kumogakure Village, it is also concentrating the main force to seek a decisive battle with our Iwagakure Village and get rid of us in the shortest possible time!"

Huang Tu narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke in a slightly low voice.

"Yes, I think so too, Huangtu Sang!"

The general nodded and continued.

After all, people still have their limits. Although Shoji can be regarded as a fusion of the memories of two lives, and the soul in the previous world can be regarded as a relatively outstanding young man, he is still just a young man after all. In terms of experience, experience, etc., there are still some gaps, some

You can guess some things based on your familiarity with the original plot and characters, but other things are difficult to see through.

Konoha's high-level meeting was held in the Hokage Building. There were layers of security forces inside and there were induction barriers arranged. No matter how strong Shoji was, he couldn't sneak into it to get the information he wanted.

Therefore, in the actions against Konoha, Shoji still made a mistake in judgment. He also felt that Konoha really planned to concentrate its forces to proactively seek a decisive battle with their Iwagakure Village. In addition, he also detected that area.

The third Hokage seemed to want to recall Jiraiya and Tsunade, which further confirmed the Shoji's judgment.

This is also very consistent with Konoha's approach in the previous three great ninja wars.

Loess also made his judgment based on the latter point.

"Then do we want to take a stab at it and take a look at the trends in Yunyin Village? Or should we?"

Chitu, who was on the left, pondered for a while and then asked.

"Both options have pros and cons, but if you ask me, Huangtu Sang, I would prefer to take the initiative!"

The general also looked at Huang Tu on the main seat with a solemn expression as he finished speaking.

"Huh? Why? General?"

To be fair, Loess personally prefers a more prudent strategy. Since Konoha's side wants to seek a head-on collision with their Iwagakure Village and a quick victory, choosing to avoid war and delay should be the lowest-risk strategy.

Don't even mention that the risk is too high in a head-on collision with large armies. Once defeated, it is likely to have a chain reaction. Even if our own side wins, it will definitely be a tragic victory. Don't look at the fact that they have an extra tailed beast jinchūriki here.

, and there are two Kage-level powerhouses, Loess and Shoji, but again, even those as powerful as the Third Raikage cannot single-handedly change the battlefield pattern where thousands or tens of thousands of ninjas collide.

It is impossible for Shoji and the three of them to do this.

If one or two Kage-level experts could easily determine the outcome of the war, Sunagakure Village would have been wiped out several times. The reason why Iwagakure Village accepted the good news in last year's war was because

Because if Sunagakure Village is really in trouble, can they send out tens of thousands of troops? A tragic victory is not a victory.

Especially in the case where there are not only Konoha but also Iwagakure's two super ninja villages in the ninja world, all strategic choices must be as cautious as possible. Konoha originally deployed a garrison force in the northwest near the border of Grass Country.

There are more than 2,000 people, and now more than 5,000 people have been reinforced at once, and there seems to be mobilization behind them!

This Chi Guoguo shows the disparity in combat power. Unless the Ninja Village urgently dispatches a group of effective forces to reinforce the front line, otherwise there will be a collision on this scale. Although the Yanyin Village side will win because of the presence of General, Loess, and Han.

The probability is still high, but the losses on one's own side will still be heavy.

Including Jiang Si, Huang Tu, and Han, there is no guarantee that they can escape unscathed.

This is a risk that is clearly in front of us, and there is no room for Luess not to consider it carefully.

However, since Shoji was brought up, Loess naturally wanted to listen. This is not only because Shoji's position in the village is becoming more and more important now, but also because Shoji is the most familiar with the situation, especially in Konoha.

, is an existence that no one in Yanyin Village can match, and his judgment must have his own reason.

"Yes, Loess-san. The reason why I say this is because Konoha can afford it, but we Iwagakure may not be able to afford it. We must not think that if the other side sets up a formation, they will really only choose to collide with us head-on. If it really does

If we enter into a delaying war, although Konoha will also have to bear high risks, so will our Iwagakure Village, and relatively speaking, the price our side has to bear may be higher. In terms of some background, we still

It’s hard to compare with it, and Sand Hidden Village seems to be a little dishonest. On the eastern defense line, Kumo Hidden Village’s control power has not weakened!”

"It is difficult for us to continue to mobilize more troops to support the front line. If Konoha is willing, and spends a little time, it can fully mobilize five to six thousand or even more troops to support the front line. This is still far away.

We are far from reaching the limit of Konoha. The only one that deserves to be wary of Konoha is Kumogakure. Once Konoha chooses to boldly let go of Sunagakure in the west and Kirigakure in the southeast, we can also mobilize some more troops to come back.

That’s when our Yanyin Village is truly in a dilemma!”

The general said with a very serious expression.

Konoha is Konoha after all.

Being able to win three ninja wars is definitely not luck. Although Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Hokage, did some stupid things during his reign, his achievements cannot be ignored, even if the top shadow-level figures withered one after another.

However, the echelon construction of the middle and low-level forces has been done very well.

Not to mention the effective combat power that the major ninja clans can provide every year, the number of genin who graduated from the ninja school and put into the active force is seven to eight hundred or more. Even among these

Some people will be sent back again, or after a period of time they cannot accept the ninja career and choose to give up.

But the huge base is still piled up here.

The number of genin that Konoha can increase every year is far more than any other ninja village. In the most prosperous years, there were even two major ninja villages with the same number. This value accumulated year after year makes Konoha

In any period of time, the number of ninjas in Ye has never dropped below 20,000. At its peak in a certain year, this number even approached the level of 30,000.

Even if the all-out wars and local disputes in the following years weakened Konoha's power step by step, the foundation is still here.

Not to say too exaggerated words, if Konoha is to explode to its extreme combat power now, there is a high probability that a large ninja army of nearly 20,000 people can be mobilized while leaving part of the necessary force to station outside the village!

As a former member of Konoha, Shoji is very familiar with this aspect. Of course, there is a premise here, that is, the major ninja families in Konoha must support the Third Hokage regardless of their expenses!

As I said before, even if civilian ninjas have developed for so many years, the wealthy ninja clan is still a wealthy ninja clan. Especially here in Konoha, the total combat power provided by those large and small ninja clans occupies at least ten people in the village.

Sixty-seven.

Wasn't the initial establishment of the Ninja Village due to the union of these Ninja clans?

As a person from the Ninja clan himself, Shoji certainly understands this. Once the Third Hokage really gives the order to die, these Ninja clan will most likely cooperate. At that time, it will not be whether they can defeat Konoha, but

It’s time to consider which route to retreat!

A general who is as strong as now, once he is trapped in the siege of nearly a thousand Konoha's elite legion, he will die. If he doesn't activate Susana, it has high attack and low defense. It is easy to get hit by GG by accident. Turn on Susan.

Zuma, even if he could kill all these thousand people, the power of the kaleidoscope would probably be almost exhausted.

In the end, it is still a word of death!

Konoha is really strong.

But it is precisely because of this that Shoji must seize this opportunity to directly attack Konoha. Before Konoha can completely concentrate all its power, launch the most powerful attack. With the power of the enemy and ourselves gathered at the border,

It seems that the price you need to pay is not too high!

Although there is a high probability that this will fall into Shikaku's plan, Shoji doesn't know it. What's more, even if Shoji really knows Shikaku's plan, he may not give up his plan. Again,

If Iwagakure Village wants to truly rise and dominate the ninja world, it must take this step sooner or later!

If Konoha still needs to worry about Kumogakure, Jiraiya, and Tsunade not returning to the village immediately, and Sunagakure Village was severely damaged by them just last year, if they wait any longer,

You will only miss the opportunity in vain.

Although decisiveness is likely to be in vain, hesitation is more likely to result in defeat!

"!"

Huang Tu's expression also became a little stern as Jiang Si spoke. He just wanted to be more steady, which didn't mean that he really couldn't understand the situation. He also understood what Jiang Si said, and he also understood the native of his family.

Dad Ying has been waiting for this moment for a long time.

If his Tsuchikage father was on the front line at this moment, he would probably choose to attack without hesitation!

At least taking over the Country of Grass and bringing it into the overall radiation range of Iwagakure Village is the lowest expected behavior that can be achieved.

"Hi, ho!"

Thinking of this, Huang Tu took a deep breath, and after slowly breathing it out, he opened his eyes again, with a cold look in his pupils.

"I understand! Shoji, Akatsuki!"

Then he spoke in a low voice.

"The two of you will each lead five hundred troops, march in parallel from the north and south, clear out all Konoha's strongholds in the Grass Country area, and advance the battle line to the Wuyuan Mountain area of ​​the Country of Fire in one go.
