Chapter 731 Containment
Northern Fire Country.
Rows of material transport vehicles were galloping across the snow-covered ground, shuttling back and forth between the Kingdom of Hot Springs and the Kingdom of Fire.
In addition, there were transport teams driving along with these military trucks.
Among them are ordinary people as well as Yuugakure ninjas who have cultivated chakra.
Their mission is to continuously deliver daily necessities and medical supplies to the people in the new territory.
Quickly relieve the anxiety in the hearts of people who have experienced war.
Although excessive territorial expansion will lead to a significant weakening of the country's defense capabilities, especially in Yugen Village. There are not many suitable people who can manage so many suddenly expanding territories and cities, but these are not a problem for Shangguan Mo.
There is a special management course in his ninja school. He has selected the newest members and brought them with him to take over the cities and territories occupied by the nobles one by one.
The weakened defense due to the expansion of territory does not apply to Shangguan Mo.
He has enough summoned beasts and a strong enough combat record to defeat all enemies who dare to attack the Yugen Village!
It is worth mentioning that the land of the Fire Country has abundant resources and is a rich territory that all the countries in the ninja world covet. Now it has fallen into the hands of Shangguan Mo.
......
In the hot spring village.
Shangguan Mo ate while turning his head to look at Tian Feng.
"... I didn't expect Konoha to give up the northern part of the Land of Fire despite such great public pressure. It seems that the strategy to deal with Konoha in the future needs to be slightly changed."
He dared to turn against the Daimyo of the Fire Nation and fight Shangguan Moxi.
It has to be said that the level of tolerance of Minato Namikaze nowadays is such that even Shangguan Mo is secretly shocked.
"People who are forced into a desperate situation will easily abandon their principles. It seems that there is no other way to become as strong as that yellow flash."
Tian Feng said with a smile.
"Maybe, but you still have to be careful to avoid falling into Namikaze Minato's scheme. Your Pegasus troops should cooperate with Saburo's administrative department to quickly take over large areas of territory and restore the people's livelihood there."
"Yeah, I understand." Tian Feng nodded slightly.
"If he brings together the other four major powers to deal with us..."
Thinking about it, Tian Feng mentioned this possibility.
"impossible."
Shangguan Mo glanced at him and said affirmatively.
"Unless Namikaze Minato can make concessions and become a vassal of the other party...otherwise, what you said is impossible to happen now."
The current Yugen Village is no longer the same as before. It is already strong enough that no one dares to attack it easily!
But whether it was Minato Namikaze or Hiruzen Sarutobi, neither of them would allow Konoha to become a vassal of a certain ninja village.
This has nothing to do with personal face or honor.
But the ancestral heritage cannot be lost in our hands!
"I have handed over the affairs here to Saburo. I will go back to Fire Country, oh no, to the southern part of Hot Spring Country. I am still needed there."
"The Daimyo and Konoha still have the ability to fight back, so don't take it lightly." Shangguan Mo warned gently.
"Yeah, I know. But you're the most relaxed and careless person, right?"
Rolling his eyes at him, Tian Feng strode out of the yard.
......
"Lord Raikage, this is a letter from the Hokage."
An Anbu Jonin appeared and presented a formal diplomatic letter.
Ye Yueai, who was exercising, raised his head, reached out to take the letter and unfolded it.
After reading the above content, Yeyueai frowned and sighed softly.
On this quiet night, an urgent letter from the Fourth Hokage broke the peace.
In the letter, he pleaded with all ninja villages to put aside past grudges and send out elite forces to assist Konoha in the life-and-death battle with the Kingdom of Hot Springs.
Yeyue Ai is totally imaginable.
This letter from Minato Namikaze was not only sent to himself, but also to the other four major countries. Obviously, the Hokage is actively striving for every bit of strength to jointly fight against the invasion of the Land of Hot Springs.
However, the cruelty and ruthlessness of war is heartbreaking.
Even Yeyue Ai couldn't make a decision easily.
The growing power of the Kingdom of Tang made him feel uneasy, but it seemed that he could only endure it silently.
The northern defense line of the Fire Nation has been lost, and large tracts of land have fallen into the hands of the Soup Nation. The people live in a peaceful environment and it seems that they will soon forget the lives of their former rulers.
In order to regain lost territory, Konoha must make tremendous preparations.
According to Minato Namikaze, if the Hidden Cloud Village agrees to send troops, he will once again gather all the ninja forces, take the initiative to launch a counterattack against the Land of Hot Springs, and vow to take back the lost land at all costs.
If there were enough allies, even a powerful country like Tang would find it difficult to cope with such a large-scale attack.
After reading the letter, Ye Yueai closed her eyes and fell silent for the first time in a long time. The Anbu beside her did not dare to make a sound and stood there obediently.
Yeyue Ai understood that Namikaze Minato was ready to fight to the death. They were willing to pay any price and use all means just to take back their territory.
He admired this determination, but he also knew that his decision to send troops would involve great risks.
If it fails, it will be a heavy blow to the entire country.
Even though Minato Namikaze repeatedly emphasized in the letter that as long as everyone worked together and united, they would be able to defeat the Tang Ninja and win.
Yeyue Ai thought this was an excellent opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Kingdom of Soup.
No matter how powerful the summoned beasts of Yugen Village are, they cannot resist the siege of the ninjas from the four countries alone.
However, such a strategy also has potential dangers.
Once the war expands, or the existing contradictions between countries intensify, or disputes arise again due to interests, this so-called alliance will become a joke.
This is what Yeyueai doesn't want to see.
He hopes that the powerful enemy of Yugen Village will disappear.
But he doesn't want to see the Hidden Cloud Village fall into a severe crisis.
He knew very well that this war was not a personal grudge, but was related to the safety of the entire country, the Kingdom of Thunder.
"Oh...it's such a headache..."
Ye Yueai sighed and sat on the ground, no longer in the mood to continue practicing physical skills.
