Chapter 313 The ambition to control the Sand Ninja!

Port!

"So now, only Ye Cang and Luo Sha are taking action, and there are still 200 Sand Ninjas?"

After listening to the report from the support team, Uchiha Mei evaluated the enemy intelligence.

In terms of the strength of the Sand Ninjas, this number is at most a vanguard force, and the real army may still be watching somewhere.

Only after confirming the intelligence will the main force enter the field.

The war between ninjas is naturally impossible to fight head-on like an ordinary army, but will be carried out in the form of a stranglehold battle, and when one side can't bear it, it will launch an attack in one fell swoop.

So now Uchiha Mei starts to build a defensive fortress with this port as the core, and the fleet can also serve as fire support.

Don't think that the steel battleships are just decorations.

The reason why these steel battleships were useless in the previous battle with the Sky Ninjas was that the battle was over before they were used.

If they really want to use their full firepower, they can completely launch a devastating attack.

It can only be said that in terms of conventional forces, our side is at a disadvantage. If we want to win, we must play to our strengths and avoid our weaknesses.

In terms of individual combat effectiveness.

Due to the excellent logistics of the castle tower, and the fact that ninjutsu is not as restricted as the five major ninja villages, as long as enough contribution is made, it can be exchanged, so the combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

The most important thing is that there are hundreds of Uchiha among the 500 or so ninjas who came this time.

With the investment of a large amount of resources, and the acquisition of various secret techniques and information from Uchiha Madara, the difficulty of Uchiha becoming a ninja and opening the eyes has been greatly reduced.

So the original 200 or so Uchiha ninjas now number more than 300, and the number of opening eyes has also increased a lot.

In addition to the ninjas trained by the Starting Point Orphanage, there are also civilian ninjas and the Hozuki clan.

Now the number of active ninjas in the castle tower has exceeded four digits.

Of course there is a price!

The massive subsidy expenditure is enough to rival the five major ninja villages.

After all, when training ninjas, various foods and medicines are indispensable, plus ninja tools and the like... that is, the castle tower makes money at an amazing speed, otherwise it would have been dragged down long ago.

The current distribution of troops.

There are 100 ninjas stationed in the Tea Country where the situation has stabilized, led by Uchiha Xiang.

Of the remaining ninjas, 500 participated in this war.

Other ninjas, in addition to carrying out daily clearing and protecting caravans, are distributed in the castle tower and the River Country, and there are no spare personnel.

If the Sand Ninja knew their situation, they might be envious.

Because they have a lot of ninjas, but no commissioned tasks.

Some of the commissioned tasks of the Wind Country were snatched by Konoha, which is also the reason why the Sand Ninja took the lead in invading Konoha during the Ninja World War.

They are starving to death, so why bother about other things.

And Dohei insisted on fighting with the Sand Ninja, not only to show strength and dispel the other party's covetousness, so as to occupy the advantage in the subsequent cooperation, but also to master the layout of the Sand Village later.

Yes, he has already formulated the first strategic goal.

Control the Sand Village!

It's not that he doesn't know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth, but because there is really such an opportunity.

The distance between the Sand Village and the Hidden Sand Village is too close, and everyone is a "neighbor", so it is not too convenient to attack.

At the same time, the other party is also the one with the hardest life among the five major ninja villages. If he tastes the benefits of cooperating with himself, he will only become more and more dependent on him.

Coupled with the advantage of the foresight in the plot, it is not a fantasy to master the Sand Ninja.

While sucking the blood of Konoha, he also has the idea of ​​​​shooting the Sand Ninja.

When the castle tower develops, and there is the "inside ghost" of the Sand Ninja standing on his side, he will have the confidence to fight against danger.

As for why he didn't directly attack Konoha? .

Sorry, Konoha is too deep!

It can be said that it is the center of the "ninja world" and has received all kinds of attention. Even LYB who is hiding in the pure land is also concerned. It is impossible to attack it.

Only after mastering the Sand Ninja and the castle tower is developed, can it be drained by boiling it in warm water.

At that time, there will be only a small broken village left, and whoever likes it will be given it.

Doping will not think that he can make Konoha submit to him just because he is a time traveler.

How dare you play like this? Believe it or not, a certain LYB in the Pure Land gave the two protagonists a cheat on the spot, and instantly rewarded himself with a "Six Paths. Chibaku Tensei!", so that he could rise to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with Kaguya.

So in Dohei's plan, Konoha can suck blood and secretly influence, but it must not occupy or annex.

At least it was like this before it had the strength to deal with the Otsutsuki family.

Another purpose of this conflict was to provide cover.

As for who to cover for? .

Of course it was Konan.

Remember Dohei's promise to her? .

But if you want to revive Yahiko, the Jisei Reincarnation Technique is a forbidden technique that must be obtained.

But Dohei is not sure whether Chiyo has researched it, so Konan needs to investigate.

No one in the castle tower is good at this kind of infiltration and espionage mission.

Even Hyuga Sogetsu, who has a terrifyingly low sense of presence and has the Samsara Eye, is at most an "assassin", and this kind of espionage mission is not suitable for him.

It is absolutely perfect to let Konan, who is good at gathering intelligence, do this task.

If he really fails, Akatsuki will come to rescue him.

The Nagato can even carry rice from Konoha, not to mention the much weaker Sand Village.

In fact, Dohei secretly hopes that the other party will really carry rice.

Once the rice is carried successfully, the Sand Village will disappear, and he can take the opportunity to occupy the nest.

The south of the Wind Country!

Both sides continued to accumulate strength, and the smell of gunpowder was extremely strong.

However, on the surface, neither side claimed that the two sides were fighting.

A local war is not a full-scale war.

Once the matter is publicized to the entire ninja world, perhaps all major forces will intervene, and the situation will be difficult to control.

Therefore, they will tacitly act in a low-key manner.

Soon, the Sand Ninja used the mining area as a base and began a stranglehold war with the castle tower.

It seems that the Sand Ninja will win.

After all, they have an absolute advantage in numbers.

Even though the Ninja World War has just been over for about a year, the number of ninjas is still around a few thousand.

But you have to know one thing.

That is, the castle tower can go all out, but it does not mean that the Sand Ninja can do so.

They also have to execute commissions.

Because if you don't accept the commission, these commissions will fall into the hands of other villages.

Once the commission is transferred, it will not be easy to get it back.

Although the Sand Ninjas plundered a huge amount of wealth in the war, those were just one-time incomes. Only commissions were long-term incomes, and their importance can be imagined.

Therefore, a small number of Sand Ninjas must go to carry out the commission, and the rest must not only guard Konoha, but also the Hidden Rock Village.

The Hidden Rock Ninjas have always been eyeing the Wind Country. Once the border is not guarded, believe it or not, Ohnoki will invade in an instant.

Do you really think that the other party is an ally after the Ninja World War? .

Therefore, the number of ninjas that the Sand Ninjas can freely mobilize is only about a thousand.

This is the limit of a non-all-out decisive battle.

In addition to the number of people, a more serious problem is "logistics".

The castle tower is supplied from the sea.

Because there is the Lieyang Fleet, let alone hundreds of ninjas and thousands of people, even if the number is ten times, it will not be difficult to supply.

But if the Sand Ninja Village wants to supply, it needs to walk thousands of kilometers in the desert, which is simply hell-level.

After knowing the opponent's shortcomings, Uchiha Mei will naturally not let it go.

In addition to constantly strengthening its own defenses, it also constantly sends teams to intercept the Sand Ninja's transport team.

The Sand Ninja, who already had difficulty in supplying, was naturally in a tragedy when they were targeted for their weaknesses.

Supplies became tight in an instant, and even rice balls were often in short supply.

The lack of food for ninjas meant that refining chakra was equivalent to "spending one's life", so you can imagine how serious the situation was.

If a large number of ninjas were sent to protect the transport team, the front line would lose its numerical advantage, which was a dilemma.

After almost two months of fighting!

It was January of the 49th year of Konoha.

The Sand Ninjas finally couldn't help but gather together to discuss countermeasures.
