Chapter 148: A feint to the east and attack in the west, taking advantage of the opportunity; a big

When the sky gradually brightened, Orochimaru dragged his tired body back to the Konoha camp.

"You run really fast, kid..."

Seeing Liuyun appear safe and sound, Orochimaru couldn't help but smile hoarsely.

"That's all thanks to the teacher for drawing the firepower for me."

Liuyun laughed playfully, then took the initiative to step forward, intending to use the palm magic to heal his injuries.

"sorry to bother you……"

Orochimaru took off his jonin vest on his own initiative, revealing the charred wound on his back. Liuyun's hands glowed green and he immediately began treatment.

Ever since his beloved disciple learned the Palm Immortal Technique, Orochimaru never looked for Tsunade again when he was injured...

"When will we attack Longmen Town?"

Orochimaru looked down at the white cloth that provided him with the life of Hinata Hiashi, and Liuyun took the initiative to ask.

According to his idea, the sooner Longmen Town is attacked, the better. After all, after what the two of them had done tonight, the Rain Ninja must know that Konoha wants to attack Longmen Town, and Salamander Hanzo will definitely send reinforcements there quickly.

"No rush... Since we've already alerted the enemy, let Hanzo transfer the nearest troops from Longmen Town over there first..." Orochimaru replied without even raising his head.

Liu Yun frowned at first, but soon relaxed his brows again: "You want to make a feint to the east and attack the west, and take over the towns around Longmen Town first?"

"Haha... Mr. Liuyun is still so smart." Orochimaru put down the white cloth in his hand and praised with a smile.

"We will attack whichever side is weaker. In the battle of the rain of fire, we have the advantage and the initiative. We just need to advance steadily and nibble away at them step by step. Once we form a siege, they will still not be able to defend Longmen Town."

The Rain Country now has to face the Wind Country, and there are frictions with the samurai of the Iron Country. The Hidden Rain Village simply cannot gather too many troops to fight against the Konoha Ninja, and it is certain that it will be difficult to take care of both ends.

The Konoha ninjas are now fighting more and more easily and with more confidence. Orochimaru even feels that it won't be long before Hanzo will take the initiative to find Konoha to make peace and stop the war.

Half a day later, the Konoha camp began to assemble ninja combat troops in a swaggering manner, and its intention to attack was not concealed at all.

That night, the ninja troops that originally wanted to attack Longmen Town suddenly changed their minds and headed towards the next town.

The towns surrounding Longmen Town had just received an order from their superiors to mobilize troops. Not long after the ninja troops arrived at Longmen Town, the town where they were previously located was immediately attacked fiercely by Konoha Ninjas. The Rain Ninja defenders were caught off guard and were forced to retreat step by step.

The Konoha ninjas captured two towns in just half a day and won very easily. The casualties were much lower than expected, which was considered a considerable achievement.

Yu Ninja, who realized that he had been tricked, was so angry that he jumped up and down, but he was helpless. He did not dare to use the existing troops in the strategic town indiscriminately, for fear that Konoha would seize Longmen Town by force, thus affecting the overall situation.

Ten days later.

During this period, the Konoha ninja openly showed their intention to attack Longmen Town, but secretly they were gradually encroaching on the surrounding towns and villages.

Five days later.

Konoha pretended to attack a town and successfully lured a ninja unit from Longmen Town to come to the rescue. An ambush wiped out nearly a hundred Rain Country ninjas, and Konoha won another small victory.

On that day, taking advantage of the high morale of the ninjas, Konoha took over the small town that was under feint attack in one fell swoop.

At this point, the only relatively important town left around Longmen Town was Guyu Town.

This last town could not be lost. Once Guyu Town was lost, the land passage to Longmen Town would be surrounded. So, Salamander Hanzo gritted his teeth and squeezed out some troops, which more or less strengthened the defense of Guyu Town and temporarily stabilized the situation to prevent further deterioration.

The two towns gradually became the front line of the battle between the Fire and Rain countries. After a period of discussion and many attempts, the Konoha ninjas decided to attack Guyu Town, which had a relatively poor geographical location.

After more than half a month of offensive and defensive battles of all sizes, Guyu Town was finally forcibly breached by the Konoha ninjas.

After this battle, Konoha did not attack Longmen Town immediately. Instead, it consolidated its defense line and relied on its military advantage to withstand several counterattacks from the Rain Ninjas. It took nearly ten days to completely consolidate the results of the battle.

Konoha's style of play was very steady, and it could even be said that they had completely abandoned the idea of ​​taking risks and winning quickly. This strategic intention was obvious to anyone, but the Rain Ninjas couldn't find a good way to counter it.

In the blink of an eye, nearly a month has passed.

When the Konoha ninjas were ready, a great battle to decide the outcome of the war between the Fire and Rain nations began.

In the Konoha camp, the chief commander, Clan Leader Yuhi, convened a combat meeting of all jonin and announced the order to besiege Longmen Town.

Liuyun, the youngest newly promoted Jonin in the history of Konoha, had the honor of participating in the entire decision-making meeting.

It took him less than half a year to be promoted from a graduated Genin to a Jonin, but even though his promotion speed was like riding a rocket, no one dared to question the rationality of Konoha's promotion.

Because Liuyun was promoted to a senior ninja based on his military merits, his "gold content" was higher than any other way of promotion, and others could not refuse to accept it.

He rose to the top entirely by stepping on the corpses of his enemies. The number of low- and middle-level ninjas who died at his hands was at least three digits, and the number of senior ninjas who died at his hands was already over two digits...

Even if Konoha wanted to reward such a strong man, they would have to take into account his feelings and the thoughts of other ninjas in the village and give him the rights and rewards he deserves.

"Orochimaru, Jiraiya, both of you know the art of summoning spirits, and your summoned spirit beasts are all water-type war beasts...

Then you two will lead your companions who are good at water escape to block the waterway and stop the enemy reinforcements, so as to buy enough time for us to capture Longmen Town."

The former commander-in-chief called out the two men and explained their combat mission.

The giant snake in Ryuchi Cave and the giant toad in Myoboku Mountain are the most suitable large ships to deal with the enemy!

"Yes!!!"

They both stood up at the same time and agreed.

"According to the distribution of waterways, the upper reaches of the main river in Longmen Town are connected to the Hidden Rain Village, so you will most likely encounter the Salamander Hanzo coming downstream. Please be sure to intercept him on the river surface...

As long as we capture Longmen Town and then form an alliance with the surrounding towns, even if a demigod comes in person, there will be no chance of a comeback! "

At the end of the meeting, Chief Xiri deliberately kept the two of them and explained the importance of the mission. It can be said that they are the key to whether Longmen Town can be captured this time.

"Please rest assured, Commander-in-Chief, we will complete the mission!" Jiraiya patted his chest and promised seriously.

Orochimaru nodded seriously in response.

After leaving the meeting room, the three ninjas called Liuyun to discuss a more specific battle plan again, and they also took the initiative to share some of their experiences in fighting with Hanzo of the Salamander with Liuyun.
