The territory of the Land of Fire, on a rocky mountain.

When it was Fugaku's turn to sentry, Makoto and two of his teammates lurked in a mountain col to make final preparations before the battle.

Leaning against a large shady rock, Makoto, dressed in a red trench coat, gently closed his eyes, as if he was pretending to sleep to regain his energy.

This made the Uchiha clan next to him, who was wearing a bandage on his wrist and palm, speak in a much lower voice: "Shuren, you say, will we meet the rain ninja or the sand ninja?" ”

The Uchiha ninja called Shuren said unconcernedly: "It doesn't matter, although it is said that Sand Shinobi is a big village, but Rain Ninja's reputation in recent years is not bad." ”

Pulling the bandages on his hands, the Uchiha ninja, who spoke first, didn't seem to be thinking about whether his bandages were strong or not, he got up, clapped his hands, and looked out with his head exposed.

The endless peaks, but perhaps due to the climate, are not as lush as the hills near Konoha, and the vegetation is lush as if they were dressed in a layer of emerald feathers. These mountains only grow green in some places where the water and soil are abundant, and from a high place, the main color of the mountains is yellow, as if there are green moss growing one after another, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.

"Hey, Xiuren, this time, I always feel a little bad premonition."

The Uchiha Shuto was quite impatient, or perhaps, it was the other party's emotions that aggravated the uneasiness in his own heart, and his voice was a little unconsciously raised: "Yoshiro, even if you don't say so much, no one will be unhappy!" ”

Yoshiro comforted him instead: "No problem, no problem, ahaha, I'm just joking." ”

Cheng listened silently, although most of his mind was focused on cultivation, the uneasy atmosphere between the two teammates still spread through the air to his side.

There are as many as 5 or 6 Konoha squads like this in this endless mountain range, and if it expands to the long front of the entire original border, this number will be even more.

And their target is all the ninjas of the two countries who pass through this realm.

As a newly occupied area of the Land of Rain, the reason why so many ninjas are active here is that Konoha is entrusted by the Land of Fire to carry out the plan for the return of the citizens of the Land of Fire.

In this small territory, there were originally three villages and a medium-sized border city, with a total population of nearly 100,000, and if the Fire Nation could move these people back to its home country as it wished, it would be easy to re-establish new cities in the fertile and vast land of the Fire Nation. Then, what the Fire Nation lost in this incident is just some uninhabited land.

- If economic losses are not taken into account.

The attrition of such a large-scale migration is enormous, both for countries and for individuals.

Compared to a country, the loss of real estate, including houses and farmland, as well as the loss of property during the relocation, is not at all very painful. After a few years of relocation, a rebuilt city can afford taxes and other functions again, and even prosper the surrounding area in the process of rebuilding. Why not use the population that is about to belong to another country to profit for yourself?

The struggle for national interests lies more in the population, and as long as the people are still there, the economic losses can be easily made up.

Naturally, the Land of Rain understood this, and when it was discovered that Konoha had entered a fairly large number of troops and semi-forcibly began to move the population of the territory, the Daimyo of the Land of Rain sent an envoy to the Land of Fire to protest solemnly. On the other hand, they immediately issued relevant tasks to the rain ninja village in their home country and the sand ninja village in the country of wind.

The tedious task of moving the population was carried out by some Konoha ninjas in cooperation with the civil servants of the Fire Nation. Makoto's combat detachment, on the other hand, is ambushed in the direction of facing the Land of Wind and the Land of Rain, and is responsible for hindering the Rain Ninja and the Sand Ninja.

"Kill all the enemies you see."

This is the order from the leader of the team, White Fang.

It is not an ambush war, but a blocking war, a long but weak front, which will face an endless stream of ninjas from both countries.

What is the number of rain shinobi and sand shinobi? What is the average strength? None of this is known, the only thing that is certain is that they will definitely face a siege of several times the number of enemies.

If it weren't for the fact that White Fang was at the forefront of the entire battle line as the leader, this chaotic plan would definitely be opposed by everyone.

The lack of personnel inevitably made it impossible to carry out the conventional multi-layer interception mode, but it hindered the enemy's requirements to the greatest extent, and made it necessary for them to spread the formation off the map and cover a large area.

A pyramid formation with a team of four led by White Fang as the spire, and a fishnet-like contraction formation after spotting an enemy.

It's a crazy battle plan for the few.

The disadvantage in strength and the boldness of the battle plan make the team members who are executors uncertain, which can be predicted in advance.

Maintaining the morale of the team is also one of the job of the captain, Makoto stopped the cultivation in his hand and carefully considered how to encourage the two subordinates who were upset by the truth of the matter.

"Are you afraid?" Makoto's sudden opening made the two of them immediately focus their eyes on him, and the speed showed that the two of them were paying considerable attention to Makoto when they were chatting.

"No, it's not so much fear as anxiety." Yoshiro, who looked a little noisy, smiled bitterly, and the meaning in his words was very mature and calm.

"Do you know if a fish is stuck in a net?" Makoto said.

"Know......" The two team members glanced at each other, vaguely knowing what he meant by mentioning such a seemingly unrelated matter.

"Fish struggle desperately when they get caught in their nets – the nets tighten and tighten, but some fish are strong enough to break through the nets and earn a way out for themselves and even their friends."

"Captain, do you mean that we should try to avoid those powerful fish?" Uchiha Shuto said immediately, unconsciously revealing the weakness in his heart.

Yoshiro glanced at him, and it was because he saw his uneasiness that Yoshiro deliberately gaged to ease his uneasiness.

Strictly speaking, saying such war-avoiding remarks has already violated discipline on the battlefield, and even if you meet a gentler commander, a reprimand is certainly inevitable.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but worry about his playmate since childhood.
