Chapter 168: The First Move
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye - every day, there was information about the land of earth and the land of thunder on the battle line of Yundu Mountain, and it was only now that Hokage-sama officially announced the attack of Konoha support troops - the theory was that it was supposed to be the vanguard of a small number of people, but this time it was a huge force... is not only led by Zhenyong and Shuimen, but in terms of generals, it is also arranged to be a strong general like Qimu Shuomao!
Surprising and that's not all!
In terms of equipment and the rest of the combat personnel, Konoha is definitely elite this time... Even though the Wind Country has paid a large amount of supplies to the Fire Country in exchange for its human pillar power, this Konoha vanguard is absolutely unprecedented, fully equipped—the simplest thing is that there is no lower ninja in this team at all, and almost every ninja is issued with high-level combat equipment including detonation charms and flash charms...
It's a luxury!
But it doesn't matter... For Konoha, this vanguard will be the first and most important step in the entire war! In any case, Ape Fei must also ensure their use to the greatest extent...
According to the Jihua predetermined with the Emissary of the Land Country, Konoha's troops will not appear directly at the front line of the Undu Mountain, they will take the Land of Rain and go straight to the mainland of the Land of Thunder - this is also the way ninjas cooperate in a general sense... Because of the contradictions between each other, the ninjas rarely "fight side by side" in the real sense, even if they form an alliance, most of the time, they also use this way of encircling Wei to save Zhao to carry out two-front battles, and this has almost become an unwritten agreement...
Since the Land of Wind has surrendered, on the way to the Land of Rain, the True Warriors have not encountered any obstacles - in the era of war and chaos, maybe for ordinary people, no place is absolutely safe, but for powerful ninjas... Especially for the formed ninja troops, it is still very safe to operate in non-enemy-occupied areas...
Even before he traveled, Zhenyong thought about sending someone to find the three Yahiko who were supposed to be active here on the way through the Land of Rain, and then take this opportunity to bring back the eyes that were originally planted by Madara back to Konoha... It's just that unlike in the past, Zhenyong at that time had absolutely no rights, and he didn't have the ability to take three unknown people back to the village - and there was no guarantee that the old guy Tuanzang would not have any evil thoughts after seeing those reincarnation eyes.
But now it's different, if you can invite these three "old friends" to Konoha in advance, I'm afraid Madara's chances will be greatly frustrated... But it's a pity, in fact, after Zhenyong became the head of the root department, he kept trying to find the traces of the three people, and just like this time, the people of the root found nothing at all...
However, this exploration gave Zhenyong some unexpected "surprises"...
In the village of Rain Ninja, which was supposed to be completely safe, three people were killed at the root of the investigation sent by Zhenyong, and none of the four people who came back were injured, but they all said that there seemed to be signs of large-scale movement of people nearby...
First of all, who is the person who made the sneak attack, if you make a hypothesis, the roots that were killed have found something, and the roots that have returned have found almost nothing - there are only two possibilities, one is that these roots have been dropped by the enemy... But given the root-specific imprint, this possibility is infinitely close to zero, so it can only be another
- They've been targeted by a big, big shili...
Big, big, even exaggerated...
With this strange feeling, a not-so-good possibility became clear in Zhenyong's mind...
Anyone else aside, that old guy Onoki is definitely a cunning old man... Longer and more active than Ape Fei, although he is old, he has always been fond of some intrigues...
He wouldn't have thought that Konoha had seen through their jihua?
Especially when Konoha also deliberately postponed the dispatch of troops?
…
One in 10,000 chances, maybe he's really old and confused... And all the enemies happen to be all underestimated!
…
Yes... True courage can't bet on this 1 in 10,000.
So, the question is, if the other party really already knows about Konoha's intentions, then what will they do now?
Honestly staying where you are is obviously not the most haode idea... If Zhen Yong is the commander of the other side, at this time... He would have chosen to ambush him as a matter of course...
On the way to the Land of Thunder for Konoha and his party, they were completely eliminated... And the land of rain, which is flat and not easy to hide, is a good place to start.
Zhenyong left the Chinese army, and he had to talk to Shuo Mao and Shuimen... After all, this is not a matter for a few of them, and Konoha's elite Liliang is being held in their hands... This is a unit that cannot be lost.
However, the flames of war came more urgently than he expected...
Konoha finally made their first move... Now, it's the other party's turn to take the call... In this crucial showdown, any small mistake could bury the entire war...
