Chapter 954 Difficulties
In the north of the Country of Fire, the lush primitive jungles have begun to turn yellow, and the Wind Country, where the wind and sand are raging, has also experienced the coolness of early autumn.
The temperature is high during the day, and small tornadoes rolled up by updrafts occasionally stir up dust in the sky, which only subside a little in the evening.
Gaara and Daimaru, who were chatting while standing on the initially completed city wall, could not help but tighten their loose robes as they felt the heat wave steaming from the ground being gradually suppressed by the cold wave falling from the sky.
The wind and sand are getting lighter, but it's getting cooler.
In the distance, Metkai and Rock Lee, dressed in green leather training uniforms, curiously shuttled among the rows of wind turbine impellers.
Sarutobi Asuma, who was following closely behind, was holding a cigarette in his mouth and looking thoughtfully at the forest of erected steel pillars. Nara Shikamaru, who was slightly interested, compared the appearance and structure of these strange buildings, and found that they were pretty good. Being knowledgeable, he roughly understood the purpose of these "big guys".
The remaining Hyuga Neji, Tenten, Akimichi Choji and Yamanaka Ino did not have such strong curiosity, and sat indifferently on the top of the observation tower that had not yet been put into use and looked at the scenery in the distance.
After a busy day, there are no additional benefits. Just working without getting paid is really frustrating and makes people tired very quickly.
Knocking on the hollow iron pillar, Nara Shikamaru patted the dust off his body and whispered:
"The visible part is of little value. It is a very ordinary generator, but the power source has been specially modified. We in Konoha Village can imitate it, but it is of no use..."
The bearded man blew out a few smoke rings and nodded:
"Without the unique conditions of the Kingdom of Wind, there is no way to use it..."
"Asuma-sensei, don't say that in front of Suna Ninja..."
Complimenting someone like this in front of the residents of the Kingdom of Wind would probably be considered a sarcastic act.
"Um……"
After coughing twice, the bearded man agreed with a smile and nodded.
"There are many rivers in the Fire Country, which can also be utilized. There are also small hydropower stations in some places, but they are very small..."
Although the two of them didn't know much about the difference between small power stations and large power stations, they also knew a little bit about it.
The real technical content is the transmission and distribution station. If there are not enough conditions, the load of such a large-scale wind turbine connected to the grid is enough to burn ordinary transmission lines.
This is also the reason why there is no large-scale centralized power supply in the ninja world. Social conditions do not allow it, and the scientific level is still a little behind.
"In many invisible places, Suna Ninja is already far ahead of us!"
"For example, wing armor, large engineering puppets, transportation machinery, etc..."
As the son of the Third Hokage, even though he was too rebellious as a child, Sarutobi Asuma is well-educated and knowledgeable, and he has a deep understanding of this.
In terms of overall strength, Konoha Village can still beat Sunagakure Village, but the advantage seems to be not as big as imagined.
The two of them were chatting when they suddenly heard several loud banging noises in front of them. Xiao Li flew up to try to see if the windmill impeller was strong. He stared dumbfoundedly at the big iron pillar that fell to the ground and brought the windmill next to it with it. fall.
The heavy object fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of sand and dust, followed by the crackling sound of electricity, the purple-black smoke rising from the wires on fire, and the unpleasant smell.
In embarrassment, Metkai retracted his whip leg that bent the electric pole in front of him.
"These two guys..."
The bearded man stroked his forehead with a headache,
"I told them a long time ago not to get caught, and I'm afraid they will be forced to work for free again..."
"Don't you find it strange? Teacher Asuma, the Sand Ninjas don't seem to care that we see their defense system. Except for a few places, they don't stop us from moving around at will..."
Even Gaara, who is friendly to Konoha Village, has not changed some old traditions that should be adhered to. Daimaru Hingmasa, who pursues practical benefits, does not care about these.
"Maybe they think these are irrelevant..."
The bearded man thought for a while and then answered.
It's not that Konoha ninjas are undefended, but that the strategic focus has changed significantly.
The traditional ninja army battles of the past, with small teams attacking each other, may no longer be popular.
The importance of the top warriors remains the same, but with the rise of air combat troops, the cruelty of ninja wars has increased by several levels. Once they are beaten to their headquarters, they will suffer air strikes and heavy bombings to destroy their potential for continuous combat. In fact, Already defeated.
If the requirement for ninjas in the past was to "defend the enemy outside the country", then in the future they will have to "defend the enemy thousands of miles away." The two may look similar, but in fact they are completely different.
The previous ninja wars that lasted for three to five months, or even several years, will no longer appear. Instead, they will be super-intensity wars that can last as short as one day and as long as ten days and a half. After killing a large number of people, they will quickly separate. Win or lose.
Because of this, there are more accidental factors that determine victory or defeat, and the advantage of sneak attacks and gaining the upper hand is huge. It will be much more difficult for Konoha Village to steadily defeat the ninja world as before.
The effect of relying on comprehensive strength to pile up conventional ninja armies will be greatly reduced. Top-notch super masters and special ninja armies with asymmetric combat capabilities will dominate the battlefield.
"The Ninja troops all over the mountains and plains have been razed to the ground before they even see the enemy; the fortresses and barrier traps built at a huge cost are completely ineffective; the defending side will fall into extreme passivity, and only by taking the initiative to attack can we seize the initiative. And this is quite detrimental to our Konoha Village..."
No matter how powerful a ninja village is, it only has one core core. Once it is destroyed by the enemy, it will be in ruins. Like Sunagakure Village, with Naruto Village and Awaji Village as its wings, it has the ability to strike twice, and there is hope for a comeback. .
In a word, the single "main base" model is no longer viable, and there must be "sub-bases" to bear the risks.
"You don't have to worry about this!"
The bearded teacher smiled and patted Nara Shikamaru on the shoulder.
"The Godaime and the elder advisors are not fools, they must be prepared..."
"for example?"
Sarutobi Asuma said to the students leisurely:
"In places you can't see, there are air raid shelters and emergency escape routes leading directly to the back mountains, as well as many other backup measures. Even strategic material reserves have been put on the agenda..."
Daimaru led the air combat troops and defeated the Iwa Ninja defense line, whose overall strength was far stronger than his own. The entire ninja world saw it, how could it not be touched?
Considering the current situation of the ninja world, there may still be many problems with the expansion of ninja villages and the establishment of other settlements.
Not all places are like the Kingdom of Wind. Nearly 90% of them are deserts that no one wants. But any place of some value has its owner.
Another thorny issue for the ninja village is the daimyo. The ninjas are enclosing land everywhere. How can they persuade the government to provide convenience?
