Chapter 183 Fangs pointed at Uchiha
Sandai's excitement slowly cooled down, and reason regained the high ground. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said.
"Okay! However, at this stage, we still need to send some ninjas to the border between the Country of Fire and the Country of Waves to strengthen the security."
The expected decisive battle with Iwagakure has not yet begun, and now the ninjas on the front line of Grass Country cannot withdraw.
"Okay, okay, but where do these ninjas come from?"
Qiudao Qifeng looked sad.
His words reached the ears of the third generation, and a mask of pain instantly appeared on his face.
Although it is still unclear how many troops Kirigakure will attack this time, Kirigakure, who has no foreign enemies, must not be underestimated. As a result, the number of ninjas sent to guard the border must not be less than a thousand.
After several years of war, Konoha's war capabilities and potential have been almost exhausted, and now it really can't even gather a thousand ninjas.
It is impossible for the village not to leave some ninjas to garrison and complete tasks, and there must also be a certain number of jounin in the village. Calculated this way, it is really not enough.
You can't just send a bunch of genin to guard Kirigakure, right?
Even in the ruthless blood mist, seeing this situation would make him laugh to death.
"In addition to maintaining necessary operations, the rest of the root ninjas can be sent to the front line."
Unexpectedly, Danzo was the first to express that he could use the power of his roots.
Everyone looked at Danzo in surprise. Only the third generation took a leisurely puff of cigarette and waited quietly for Danzo's next words.
"As for the other shortfalls, I suggest that the ninjas in the village make up for it."
Danzo quietly showed his fangs.
"Like Hinata and Uchiha, there are still a large number of ninjas staying in the village. Especially for Uchiha, a lot of ninjas stay in the guard force. This is undoubtedly a waste of combat power!"
"But..." Sandai looked at Danzo with some confusion.
Hinata has always had a harmonious relationship with the village, and has been very cooperative with the assignments on the battlefield. Danzo mentioned Hinata only incidentally. Even if he didn't mention it, Hinata would send troops and people as usual when sending ninja troops to the border of Wave Country this time.
Danzo's real purpose should be Uchiha.
However, sending Uchiha to the battlefield can certainly undermine Uchiha's strength, but it also cannot prevent Uchiha from establishing meritorious deeds and expanding his reputation in the village.
This is inconsistent with the concept of restricting Uchiha set by the second generation Hokage and implemented by the third generation. It is a bit of a waste of time.
"Hiruzhan, Uchiha are also part of the village. A large number of Uchiha ninjas in the village are a waste of combat power!"
"Now that the situation in Konoha is imminent, it's time to temporarily put aside our prejudices!"
Everyone, including the third generation, looked sideways at Danzo.
Is this your Danzo line? !
The third generation thought for a moment and felt that he somewhat understood Danzo's thoughts.
Maybe this is...the lesser of two evils?
Compared with the large-scale invasion of the Fire Country by Kirigakure, allowing Uchiha to establish meritorious deeds on the battlefield seemed insignificant.
After all, there is really not much power that the village can draw out now, and those in the Uchiha family who open their eyes are the elite among the elite.
Sandai took a puff of his pipe pot and said slowly: "Okay, no problem, I will contact Hinata, Uchiha, and other ninjas."
After thinking for a while, he looked at Danzo and said, "Since the Ninja clan has to mobilize its forces, I think it would be a good idea to transfer Umino Squad to the border of Wave Country."
"Okay." Since Umino's class member included Danzo's nephew Shimura Kenji, the third generation mentioned this more often. There is naturally nothing Danzo cannot agree to.
"As for the commander, let Orochimaru go." Danzo added to the third generation.
When everyone heard that it was indeed reasonable, they agreed.
Although it was a pity to interrupt Orochimaru's research process, the village could not find a more suitable commander at present.
The Umino Squad is a team composed of juniors from the Sarutobi, Shimura, and Uchiha clans. It is just right to be sent to the border of the Land of Waves at this time, and it can become a benchmark for mobilizing the power of the ninja clan.
Sarutobi and Shimura both sent outstanding juniors from their families and teamed up with Uchiha, showing a cooperative attitude. What else can other ninjas say?
Everyone also agreed with the third generation's decision and discussed some other details together.
Akimichi Tofaze and Danzo assisted the third generation in mobilizing the power of the ninja clan, and later combined with the staff to plan the war zone, allocate troops, and send the ninjas to the battlefield.
After moving to Xiaochun, he was responsible for public opinion in the village and material logistics preparation. Mito Katoen will personally go to the Kingdom of Water to find out the truth about Kirigakure.
The deployment in the direction of the Country of Waves is completed, and the next step is the issue of the front line of the Country of Grass.
There was nothing to say about the battle with Iwagakure. With accurate intelligence, everyone unanimously decided to send an elite team to destroy the Kannabi Bridge. As for the specific implementation plan, they had to make a decision after discussing with the staff.
After the specific strategy is decided, it will be handed over to the front line commander of Grassland Minato Namikaze for implementation. During this period, the village and Minato will still have to discuss and contact each other back and forth.
The third generation has already vague ideas about the candidate to carry out Kannabi Bridge's plan to destroy the bridge.
At this time, there were two elite ninjas standing outside the office door.
Thinking of the buds emerging from Konoha, the third generation's wrinkled face couldn't help but smile.
Danzo was particularly satisfied with the arrangements at the border of Wave Country.
Orochimaru's research on Hashirama cells has reached a certain bottleneck. Both Danzo and Orochimaru are very clear about what is needed to break the bottleneck and allow Hashirama cells to maintain balance.
But in the village, it was difficult for the two of them to attack. Moreover, the "test items" required for the experiment are not that sufficient.
Let Orochimaru go to the battlefield, and the problem of the experimental products will be properly solved.
A large number of Uchihas have taken to the battlefield, and some "necessary supplies for experiments" can also be solved.
Danzo will not show even a trace of goodwill to Uchiha. His real purpose is to allow more Uchiha to leave the village and go to the battlefield.
Orochimaru and Danzo, who want to compete for the Hokage, still have some bottom lines that they cannot take action against ninjas from the same village. Even if there is an urgent shortage of experimental products, they would rather go to the battlefield to obtain them.
But Uchiha, in Danzo's mind, was not considered a "ninja from the same village".
At this point, Konoha's management finally decided on the strategy to be implemented next.
The decisive battle against Iwagakure and the reinforcements at the border of Wave Country were imminent, so they had to be carried out at the same time.
The ninjas stationed at the border of Wave Kingdom mainly serve as a warning, and at the same time try to delay the attack time of Kirigakure Village through diplomatic means.
After repelling Iwagakure and obtaining enough compensation and supplies, the ninja army of Grass Country can free up their hands to go to the border of Wave Country and open up a battlefield with Kirigakure.
Everyone is very satisfied with the current plan, and when it comes to this, it is almost over.
