Chapter 115 Making a feint to the east and attacking in the west

"The enemy's strength is more empty than we expected. We can concentrate our forces to destroy Kirigakure's coastal stronghold in one fell swoop."

Fugaku estimated the amount of troops both the enemy and ourselves could invest.

One thousand fourteen against eight hundred, the advantage is mine.

"However, Kirigakure's Headquarters of the Country of Waves is always a trouble. It can assist the frontline strongholds when entering, and transport Kirigakure's local troops when retreating. As long as this hub is still there, even if we take the stronghold, we will not be able to expel all the Kirigakure ninjas."

Shikaku pointed to the small island of Wave Country on the map.

"It's okay. As long as we maintain a swift and fierce offensive and seize the coastal stronghold before the reinforcements of the Mist Ninjas from the Land of Waves arrive, then we can use this as a base to defend the enemy from outside the country." What Fugaku said makes sense.

Lu Jiu nodded slightly, then looked at Che, "Che, what do you think?"

"My thought is, let's try another goal."

Che said with a smile.

Seeing that Fugaku and Shikaku were deep in thought, Che continued: "It is certainly unexpected for Kirigakure to attack the stronghold, but what is even more unexpected for them is that we can also directly attack their headquarters of Wave Country."

"But we don't have enough manpower. Even if the entire army attacks, we will only have less than half the strength of the enemy headquarters. If we attack forcefully, we will probably suffer heavy losses."

Fugaku also considered this issue, but had to give up due to troop constraints.

Shikaku thought of something, "If we attack the coastal stronghold, the country of Waves will definitely send troops to reinforce it, and then we can take the opportunity to attack."

"But it would be easy for the enemy to attack from both sides." Fugaku still had concerns.

Che pointed at the map and expressed his thoughts: "We have 1,400 people, 400 of them will attack the coastal stronghold, and we will use the momentum of Konoha's main force to make the Mist Ninja ask for help from the headquarters of the Country of Waves."

"The remaining one thousand people were ambushing the enemy's reinforcements at sea, and then took the opportunity to directly attack the enemy's headquarters."

Fugaku and Shikaku looked at each other, "It works!"

However, Fugaku became worried again, "In this case, our two troops will be under great pressure. On both battlefields, we will fight with less and more."

Che took the initiative to take the responsibility: "A thousand-man army can be led by me, and I can be responsible for annihilating the enemy's main force."

"Captain, you and the 400-man army only need to create a momentum and attract the enemy's attention. You don't need to fight."

Fugaku sighed after hearing this, "I am old after all, and I am not as strong as you. Okay, let's do it."

Shikaku also agreed, and the counterattack was scheduled for tonight.

The three of them rested as usual, and Fugaku and Shikaku began to gather their troops at night, so Kirigakure had no chance of noticing.

Shikaku allocated the troops according to the temporary list. He and Fugaku led four hundred people, and Che alone led a thousand people.

As for the supplies and equipment, they are divided in half, so that four hundred people can fight against a thousand people in a short period of time.

Che led the team to take a detour to the coast, while Fugaku and Shikaku led a force of 400 people straight to the coastal stronghold.

"Attack from the north, which is closest to the warehouse of the stronghold. We can blow up the warehouse. This will not only create momentum, but also weaken Kirigakure's strength."

Fugaku first asked Shikaku for his opinion.

There was nothing particular about the direction of the attack, and the strategic significance of destroying the warehouse was indeed great, so Shikaku agreed without much thought.

After both commanders agreed, the order was passed on naturally.

The troops turned around and headed north.

The dim moonlight shone down, and the traces of the troops in the forest were vague.

"who?!"

The fog ninja who was on patrol at night carefully pulled out his kunai.

Fugaku's figure emerged from the dark forest, his eyes were blood red, like a fierce demon.

Magical shackle technique!

The Mist Ninja's figure stagnated, and his throat was sealed by a kunai blow.

Fugaku pulled out his kunai and tied a detonating charm on it.

Fugaku then looked behind him and saw that everyone was ready.

Fugaku gave an order, and everyone threw the Explosive Talisman Kunai.

boom! ! !

The northern wall of the stronghold was blasted open by the detonating talisman.

The interior of the Kirigakure stronghold is a coastal village occupied by the Kirigakure, and the outer wall was built later by logging, so the defense of the wall is not high.

Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique!

Fugaku's Dragon Fire Jutsu was quite large in scale and directly destroyed several houses, killing many Kiri Ninjas on the spot.

Shadow Suture Technique·Black Flower of the Other Side!

Several fog ninjas surrounded them and jumped up, raising their swords to strike at Fugaku, but Shikaku restrained them with one move.

Fugaku killed the mist ninjas with several shurikens in his backhand.

The two opened a hole for the Konoha troops, and the Konoha troops filed in and attacked the stronghold wantonly.

Qing was reviewing the list of supplies that had just been delivered, and immediately came to the window when he heard the noise.

Roll your eyes, open!

Ao looked through the building wall and saw clearly the invading Konoha ninja.

"Four hundred Konoha ninjas...Huh, it's really a feint attack. Do you think you can deceive me?"

Qing still thinks that the news that Konoha is going to attack the eastern stronghold is false.

Thinking that these four hundred Konoha ninjas were just attracting firepower for the southern front.

"Fortunately, I have already dispatched 200 elite troops to support the southern front. There are now more than 1,700 people there. They should be able to withstand it. If it is not possible, let the headquarters send troops to support..."

Qing Guan rolled his eyes. Instead of worrying about the stronghold he was guarding, he was instead planning for his colleagues on the southern front.

"Master Qing!"

A fog ninja rushed in.

"I understand, isn't it just Konoha who came in? It's just Konoha's..."

"The second line of defense has been lost!"

"What?!"

Qing, who was still strategizing at first, suddenly lost his ability.

Kirigakure also knew that the temporary fence on the outside was fragile, so he built two stone positions inside the fence.

Three lines of defense were formed in the stronghold.

Within the third line of defense are the most important supplies and command locations.

Qing opened his Byakugan again, confirming the authenticity of the news.

"They are actually Konoha's elite troops. Does Konoha plan to have both?"

Ao is still trying to figure out Konoha's intentions, but time waits for no one.

Qing immediately rushed out of the command post and mobilized his troops to fill the hole in the northern position.

In any case, there were twice as many Kirigakure ninjas in the stronghold as Konoha, but Konoha concentrated its forces and penetrated the defense line.

As long as other ninjas fill the gap, everything will be fine...

But no.

The Konoha troops, led by Fugaku, were extremely brave, and the sufficient supply of ninja tools also allowed the Konoha troops to explode with astonishing attack power.

Soon, under the leadership of Fugaku and Shikaku, Konoha broke through all three lines of defense.

Art fire escape ho fireball!

Fugaku rushed to the warehouse and released a fireball, blowing up a wall of the warehouse.

Just as Fugaku was once again preparing to use a fireball to detonate the detonating talisman in the warehouse, a wall of water blocked the fireball attack.

boom!

In the mist, it was Ao who faced Fugaku.

This battle between Konoha's Byakugan and Sharingan happened between Kirigakure and Konoha.
