Chapter 182 Changes in the Battle Situation

Who would have thought that Danzo, who finally arrived, would bring an urgent secret report.

Before this secret report, any previous arrangements to pave the way for disciples were no longer important.

Kirigakure sent troops and occupied the country of Waves.

The intelligence also showed that traces of Sunagakure were seen in the Land of Waves, and it was very possible that Sunagakure was in contact with Kirigakure.

Then, there was this scene in the office now.

Danzo clamored to send troops to teach Kirigakure a lesson, but where were the troops? Where are the soldiers?

Konoha now has two battlefields open at the same time, and its troops are already stretched thin. Are we going to open a third battlefield now?

It's hard to be the Hokage...

The third generation worriedly touched the thinning hair on his head.

The other consultant elders in the office have also circulated the information. The three of them tried hard to remain calm, but their solemn eyes still betrayed them.

"You've already seen the intelligence, tell me what you think about this matter." After a long silence, the third generation spoke first.

"Of course we attack! Hiruzen and Kirigakure have put their knives on our necks, we must fight them back into the sea!"

Danzo is still as excited as ever...

The third generation looked at the excited Danzo and shook his head slightly.

"But our current preparations are not sufficient, Danzo. Moreover, we are not sure yet what Kirigakure's next plan will be." The third generation replied quietly.

"I don't think it's wise to take the initiative at this stage. I suggest that we put more guards on the border near the country of Waves to let Kirigakure know that we are prepared."

Akimichi Tofeng, who wore a turban that looked like briefs on his head, said calmly.

Akimichi Kaifeng is responsible for the defense of part of the village. His daily style is completely opposite to Danzo. He is a steady person and speaks mature and prudent words.

Moreover, he still has some unspoken subtext.

"Moreover, we no longer have sufficient war reserves. Whether it is soldiers or materials, we are not enough to proactively provoke a war with Kirigakure Village."

Koharu, who was in charge of finance, acted from a professional perspective and helped Akimichi speak out what he had not said.

Mito Kadoyan also added: "The Country of Waves is different from the Country of Kawawa and the Country of Grass. We do not have an allied diplomatic relationship with the Country of Waves. We take the initiative, and we do not have the name to send troops."

Mito Gate is responsible for Konoha's diplomatic work and contact with the Daimyos of the Land of Fire. Although judging from the external environment that Konoha has encountered in recent years, Mito Gate is somewhat of a trap in diplomacy, but in this regard , he still has the right to speak.

Danzo didn't pay attention to the pitfall of Mito Kaden. When he cooperated with Kumogakure Village to deal with Iwagakure, Danzo wanted to curse the "cheating" agreement Mito Kaden brought back when he thought about it.

Danzo glanced around coldly and said: "I understand what you are saying, but do we have to wait until Kirigakure Village invades the Land of Fire before we can react?"

"But we don't have enough war reserves now, and we can no longer afford to fight a proactive war. Moreover, we don't have sufficient reasons, and the fighting mood and fighting will of the village will be affected."

The third generation rubbed the corners of his eyebrows in distress and patiently explained to Danzo.

If the current Konoha is still in the state before the war, the third generation may still adopt Danzo's point of view.

But starting from today's reality, the third generation is more inclined to Akimichi's view of taking the wind and deploying more guards at the border.

Danzo was already prepared for this.

He took out another scroll from his arms, handed it to the third generation, and said confidently: "In terms of military strength and supplies, there is actually no need to worry too much."

"This is an urgent report sent at the same time as Kirigakure's information. I just got it."

The third generation received this information, unfolded it, and his face immediately changed color.

"Very good!" After a long time, Sandai closed the scroll and clapped his hands excitedly.

"Come here! Hand this information to the staff immediately, and use deduction to determine the authenticity of the information!"

An ANBU appeared, took the scroll, and left using the teleportation technique.

"What information is it, Hiruzen?" Mito Kadoyan asked curiously.

"It's information about Iwagakure. We found Iwagakure's supply route! Now we just have to wait for confirmation from the staff!"

The third generation is very excited. This is undoubtedly precious information that can instantly change the situation of the war!

Asking the General Staff for verification does not mean questioning the way in which the intelligence was obtained, but rather asking the General Staff to confirm the feasibility of the strategy for such intelligence that is of great significance to the strategy.

Sometimes, enemies will deliberately reveal false information to cause the other party to suffer losses.

"There is no need to verify at all, it's just a waste of time." Danzo said confidently.

After all, the person who handed over this information was Danzo's ace spy sent to Iwagakure Village, the walking shrine maiden, Medicine Master Nonou.

After a while, the ANBU ninja who had just left returned, and with him came the Jonin squad leader, the Hokage's important adviser, and the current head of the Nara family, Shikatsu Nara.

"I would like to inform you, Sir Third Generation, that based on the terrain of the frontline battlefield and Iwagakure's several reinforcements and attack routes, we have concluded Iwagakure's possible support base."

"After analysis by everyone in the staff department, the Iwagakure supply route described in the intelligence is completely true!"

As he spoke, Nara Shikasou spread out the map on the ground and placed his index finger firmly on a stronghold on the map.

"The key to cutting off Iwagakure's supply line is here, Kannabi Bridge!"

"Once we can destroy the bridge here, we can cut off the enemy's supply lines through the rivers and mountains that divide the terrain, and even cut off the connection between the enemy's various departments!"

"Once supplies are cut off and Iwagakure is divided and surrounded, then it will be an encirclement and annihilation battle!"

Nara Shikagami said the conclusion calmly, but his forcedly calm tone still couldn't hide the excitement deep inside.

"Very good! Thank you for your hard work, Lushou."

The third generation was also very excited. He suppressed his inner excitement to avoid losing his temper and greeted Nara Shikatsumi calmly.

"Yes! Please excuse me."

Nara Shikasou left with the opportunity, and he was smart enough to understand that the next step was the decision-making moment for the top management.

The man of the Nara family can always give the best advice when the Hokage needs it, but when the Hokage does not need him to participate in decision-making, he can calmly retreat behind the scenes.

After Nara Shikatsuki left, Danzo was the first to speak anxiously: "How? Hiruzen! As long as we defeat Iwagakure quickly, we can mobilize a large number of troops to fight Kirigakure!"

"The insufficient supplies can be obtained by Iwagakure's compensation! As long as Men Yan doesn't let you down again!"

Danzo still couldn't help it and ordered Mito Gate Flame. Mito Menyan couldn't help but his face turned dark when he heard this.

However, despite his displeasure, Mito Kaden still spoke out in support of Danzo's opinion.

After all, Kirigakure is entrenched in the Land of Waves, and it is indeed like a thorn in Konoha's throat.
