Chapter 174: The Next Step and the Messenger Mission

In the tent of Konoha Command, Rope Tree looked at the scroll in his hand, recovering from his previous complicated thoughts, thinking about the situation he was facing and how to proceed next.

Now that the battle situation in the country of Vortex has calmed down, the remaining main enemy is the 4,000 ninja army of Yunyin and Mistin.

Now that the two ninja armies are similar in number, even if someone sees through the weakness of guerrilla warfare, Rope Tree is sure to defend against the offensive from the north and east by means of constant return. And the nearly 100,000 ordinary allied troops sent by other small countries to invade the Vortex Country are now a drag.

Because the small countries that invaded the country of the vortex this time are all located in the gap between the major powers, in order to ensure the safety of their own country, they can't send most of the ninja army, plus the ninjas in these small country villages are very rare, so the total number of small country ninjas who came to the country of the vortex this time is only hundreds, but there are a lot of ordinary troops. Among them, the country of Taki, the country of frost, and the country of frost are in charge of the northern battlefield, and the country of iron and the country of Yu, together with the fog, are in charge of the eastern battlefield.

Due to the special national conditions of the country of the vortex, the military strength of the entire country is completely held by the ninjas of the Uzumaki clan, and there is no army composed of ordinary people!

According to the original plan of the alliance of various countries, the ninjas of the four major ninja villages should be responsible for attacking the ninja army of the Vortex Country, and the ordinary writing teams of the small countries should be responsible for occupying and guarding the captured castles. This tactical division of labor is very clear, and it is also very suitable for capturing the country of Vortex without an army of ordinary people.

However, they did not expect that the rope tree would play its cards out of common sense and use guerrilla tactics to completely destroy their plan, making the small country's army, which was originally a huge help, a useless burden.

If this negotiation of Konoha succeeds and forces the ninja forces of Yunyin and Kishigaku to retreat, then these ordinary troops and hundreds of ninjas who have invaded the territory of the Vortex Country will become a piece of fat, and the rope tree will be able to swallow them in one bite without even waiting for the army sent by the Daimyo of the Fire Country to arrive.

At that time, whether it is used to exchange ransom from various countries or directly collect the spell seal for their own use, it can bring great benefits to the rope tree and Konoha.

Of course, the premise of all this is that the ninja armies of Fog Hidden and Cloud Hidden completely abandon these small national armies and evacuate alone, otherwise these boiled ducks may fly with the ninja armies of the two countries.

Obviously, this goal cannot be achieved through negotiations, and the two ninja villages will not let Konoha take advantage of such a big one in vain anyway.

Rope tree understands very well that it can only achieve its goals by means of war.

Moreover, with the current situation of Yunyin Village and Wuyin Village, in addition to compromising with Konoha, they can also choose to fully increase their troops to the country of vortex!

Although it is unlikely that the two ninja villages will make such a dangerous decision that will lead to an all-out war under the great victory of Konoha, Rope Tree feels that it is better to strangle all dangerous possibilities so that the enemy has no choice, and after tasting the sweetness, he is also very coveted for the supplies of the two ninja villages.

So for Rope Tree, the war is not over yet, and he still needs to put some finishing touches on it.

After the Vortex Country Ninja Army resumed its attack tactics against Cloud Ninja and Fog Ninja again last night, the two commanders, Drubi and Yakura, should have realized that their situation was not good, but they would not change their strategy without receiving the instructions from above.

And now Konoha meddling in the country of the vortex has not yet been made public in the ninja world.

If Konoha negotiates with the four great ninja villages too early, then it will definitely make Yunyin and Wuyin react quickly, whether they choose to retreat or increase their troops, it will be very detrimental to Rope Tree's next plan.

Therefore, Rope Tree deliberately asked the Konoha high-level in the scroll to conceal the news after receiving the secret letter, and wait until tomorrow to negotiate with the four major ninja villages.

And tonight he will implement his own plan of action, and if he succeeds, he will force Yun Shinobi and Mist Shinobi to leave behind the small alliance forces and evacuate the Vortex Country alone!

After thinking about it in his heart, he finally made up his mind that this plan didn't need the cooperation of others at all, and he could complete it alone, so he didn't need to discuss it with others.

"Someone!" The rope tree shouted outside the tent.

"Patriarch, what do you command?" Hearing the call of the rope tree, the thousand-armed city guard hurried into the camp.

As the chief guard of the rope tree, if there are no special circumstances, even if he is now an elite shinobi, he must take turns with other guards to protect the safety of the rope tree twenty-four hours a day.

"City Protector, please go and find Qimu Shangnin, I have an important task!" Rope Tree took the scroll and explained calmly.

"Yes! Patriarch! "The Thousand Hands Protector took the order without hesitation.

After a while, Qimu Shuomao went into the camp, and since he had barely made any moves last night, he was in good spirits, and when he returned to the camp, he lay down in his tent and closed his eyes to recuperate, and did not really fall asleep.

"Lord Rope Tree, I don't know what to tell you to find it?"

Rope Shu raised the scroll in his hand, "Hachiki-senpai, this is the battle report I just completed and the plan for negotiations, it is top-secret information, and it needs to be sent back to Konoha as soon as possible, and there is no room for error." ”

"Senior Qimu is the leader of the dark army, and he is good at stealth, I think it is most appropriate for you to entrust this task to you."

"It's time to trouble Captain Qimu to lead the dark team under his command!"

"This is an A-level mission issued by me as a commander, and after returning to the village, Qimu's seniors and the dark department under his command can get the corresponding remuneration. For this war mission, the daimyo paid tens of billions of taels. And the materials that our Konoha reinforcements spent in this war were completely borne by the Uzumaki clan. I don't think Hokage-sama would have minded this expense after receiving the good news. ”

As a special army under the command of the Hokage, the Shadow Department is responsible for protection and reconnaissance missions, so every time Konoha goes on an expedition, the commander will have at least one Shadow Team with him. In addition to the task of protecting and transmitting information, they also have to perform the same supervision work on behalf of the Hokage, which is necessary to prevent the commander of the ninja army from rebelling against the village, so they have a very special position.

But a transcendent existence like Rope Tree, the dark department has no supervision significance for him at all, and it is more of a protection task, so now Rope Tree can blatantly give orders to Qimu Shuomao, if you change someone, I am afraid that you will not have the courage to risk being suspicious of the high-level to take the dark department away.

And Hachiki Sakushige, who understands this, will not refuse, although Rope Tree said that the matter was very serious and even used his authority to make it an A-level task, but Hachiki Sakumo understood that this was another excuse to give himself credit. Judging from the current battle situation, the enemy simply does not have the spare strength to deploy extra manpower to the west of the Vortex Country, and this delivery of the message is just an errand for him. Isn't it a waste of effort to be able to complete an A-level mission so easily?

"Yes, Rope Tree-sama!" Hagi took the scroll from the rope tree and hurried away a little embarrassed, feeling as if he was accepting a bribe.
