readx;?Territory of the Land of Rain, a mountain that has been washed away by rain all year round, leaving only bare/exposed rocks. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It was Hinata Kugami's turn to take the sentry, and Nara Red Deer and ten other teammates lurked in a mountain col to make final preparations for battle.

Leaning against a large, wet/slippery rock, the Nara red deer in a white raincoat gently closed his eyes, as if recovering from a fake sleep.

This made the shadow ninja wearing a cat-face mask with a bandage on his wrist and palm next to him speak in a much lower voice: "Raven, you say, are we going to run into Sand Shinobi or Iwa Shinobi?" ”

The dark ninja who was called a crow and wore a crow mask said unconcernedly, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if it's a sand ninja or a rock ninja, just kill them all." ”

Pulling the bandages on his hands, the cat-faced masked ninja didn't seem to be thinking about whether his bandages were strong or not, he got up, clapped his hands, and looked out.

The endless mountain peaks, just because of the climate, will never be as lush as the hills near Konoha and the vegetation is lush as if it were dressed in a layer of emerald feathers. Under the perennial rain, these mountains only grow green in some places where the water and soil have not been completely lost, and from a high place, the main color of the mountains is black and yellow, as if there are green moss growing one after another, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.

"Eh, crow, this time, I always have some bad premonitions."

The man called the crow 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: "Big cat, you talk too much nonsense!" ”

"Ahaha, I'm just joking......" Although he said that, there was no joke in the speaker's tone, giving people a feeling of forcible cheering, "Although our team is newly formed, there has been no mission failure since the completion of the formation and the start of the mission...... No problem! ”

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

In fact, it's no wonder that these dark parts of them have no bottom in their hearts.

There are only six of them in this endless mountain range, and the problem is, this is a border of more than 80 kilometers. Even if it were extended to the entire long front of the border between the two countries, the number would not exceed fifteen.

And the target of these people is all the ninjas of the two terroirs who pass through this realm.

Even if these less than fifteen teams are the elite of the Konoha Dark Division, it will be impossible to intercept the large-scale infiltration of ninjas from the two countries.

According to the first-level alert model of the Land of Rain formulated by "Kazuya Nakai" and others, and made by "Ashikaga Yoshito" and Sarutobi Hizashi and others, the defense of the border line should be composed of at least a fourfold defense system, and the new rain ninja patrol led by the ninja of Konoha ; A fixed border checkpoint led by a team led by Konoha ninjas and built under the guidance of Konoha The second patrol team is composed entirely of Konoha ninjas sent from within the village; Finally, there is a dark support team hidden in the shadows, tasked with checking and filling gaps, reverse infiltration, interception, and support.

But now, on this long borderline, all that remains is the Konoha shadows. Although the original patrol team was regrouped into teams of eight to twelve people by mobilizing support from within the village, and the area of responsibility for the release line was not expanded, the rest of the ninjas who were originally distributed in the area had disappeared.

Even if the combat strength of those people is worrying, but there is a lack of cannon fodder and filling troops to maintain the front, and even the original front-line troops have been transferred, leaving these elites who were originally mobile troops, how can they defend such a long line of defense?

The most important thing is that this is an extraordinary time, and the uninterrupted covert infiltration between the two countries has turned into an overt infiltration, even to the point of openly assembling ninjas and planning to carry out a wave of infiltration and assault - which means that the friction/friction between the three parties has escalated to the point of a regional war, except for the declaration of war, the war can start immediately.

In this case, even the elite in the shadows will be at a loss in the face of this situation.

"Kill all the enemies you see."

This is the order of Orochimaru, a security advisor from the village of new rain. Before this order was issued, he had already ordered the withdrawal of the unwarlike and fluctuating rain ninja troops, and stopped patrolling the Konoha ninjas, and turned to gathering forces to defend the fortress and the big city.

And what these shadows want to carry out is not an ambush war, but an interception war. This is a long but weak front, and it will face an endless stream of ninjas from both countries.

What is the number of sand shinobi and rock ninja? 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 riot that took place in the Land of Rain more than ten days ago, this chaotic plan would have met with everyone's opposition.

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 defensive formation with squads as tactical units, and a fishnet-like shrinking formation after spotting an enemy. It's a frenzied battle plan for a defended majority few. In the eyes of the Faceless, the best case scenario is to turn the resistance war into a delaying war.

Orochimaru estimated that he knew that with the shadows of less than 200 people, he would not be able to intercept the impact of thousands of ninjas no matter what. However, Konoha currently lacks mobile power in the Land of Rain, and he cannot allow the enemy to enter the heart of the Land of Rain unhindered, because the consequences would be catastrophic.

After the two countries began to increase their troops on the border of the Land of Fire, even if they knew that the other side might be suspicious, Sarutobi had to transfer troops and accumulate heavy troops on the border line for confrontation. In addition, due to the failure to complete the task of "Annai" before the Konoha ninja in the rain country was transferred, when the Konoha ninja was still busy with the security war, with the support of the enemy, another riot broke out in the rain country......

Obviously, due to misjudgment of the situation, unrealistic illusions of peace, or other reasons, such as the economy (full mobilization will lead to a significant reduction in ninjas on other missions, and all manpower will be smashed into war missions), Konoha has not been fully mobilized, and only carried out two successive mobilizations during the attack on the Land of Rain. And his opponent secretly completed the full mobilization.

Ninja Village's war mobilization also takes time, and it is much slower than in modern countries. It is impossible for a ninja who is performing a entrusted mission outside to return to the city as soon as he presses the B button, and there is no spring water after returning to the city, so that he can quickly enter the combat mission with full blood and full of energy. There are also war formations, which can only be pulled out when they are all together. In addition to this, war materials must be stockpiled, and the village's funds must also be considered - how long can it last without mission income and constant consumption?

So now Konoha's situation is very embarrassing, it was originally the first to hit others and catch them off guard, and it has become a situation that needs to be preemptive......

For Orochimaru, no matter where the country is, as the security advisor of the Land of Rain, he has a heavy responsibility. Whether it was the chaos caused by the enemy, the various economic losses, or the further loss of the city and land, it was not something that he could afford to be a small shinobi - even if the Hokage disciple was entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

Therefore, it is only natural to send elite troops to snipe the enemy and buy time for the defense of the rear. As for the attrition of the troops, the superiors naturally don't care. As long as you can delay the enemy, you don't even need to delay until Konoha has finished dealing with the internal affairs of Shinyu Village or the reinforcements mobilized from Konoha Headquarters, so as to buy time for the construction of several strategic points and the second layer of defense. At that time, even if the enemy who is fighting by strangulation will not move forward, he will naturally have plenty of time to take advantage of, and when the time comes, he will lead the main force to fight a defensive counterattack with reinforcements.

However, for the dark part that carries out the front-line defense mission, 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, although Zhao Kun knows that no matter what he says, the effect will not be too ideal.

Because in any case, the difference in strength between us and the enemy is already here. To put it mildly, at this point of manpower, even the enemy's normal infiltration in the past month cannot be intercepted, so what can be used to intercept a larger and stronger force?

Although there is no specific information, as long as it is not for those idiots who believe that there will be peace, it is clear that this time, it will definitely not be a small force.

Ever since the Fire Nation included the Rain Nation in its 'protection', the so-called infiltration has not been interrupted. The rebellion that took place in the village of Xinyu a few days ago is also inseparable from the two great powers of wind and soil. If you want to say that those two forces that are eyeing each other will give up their actions against Rain Ninja Village, the little kid doesn't believe it!

Now, when Konoha is at its weakest in the Land of Rain's defenses, it's a good time to invade. Although the Fire Country has eaten the Land of Rain, it is still far from digesting and absorbing, and it has almost not swallowed. I can't swallow it for a while, I can't digest it, but I definitely don't want to spit it out.

Previously, a series of armed uprisings in several cities had caused panic among the people of the Rain Country. And after the incident where the Konoha ninja who led the team was killed by the rain ninja and then defected, there was a big rift between the two parties. Under the turmoil, Yu Shinobi is reluctant to be cannon fodder, and the captains of Konoha do not trust Yu Ren even more, fearing that they will be killed by the so-called teammates who fight back......

In this case, Konoha can only fully shrink its strength and check the rebellion of the rain ninja. While presiding over the purge of the rain ninja, Orochimaru and Tsunade Jiraiya jointly asked Konoha for reinforcements. As long as it can survive until new reinforcements arrive, relying on the ninjas of Konoha , the so-called independent regime of the Land of Rain will be able to maintain its rule over the land, and its defense will be restored to a solid level.

However, during this interval, a drop in control is inevitable. If there is no external enemy, it can naturally be maintained, but once it is trapped internally and externally, it is normal to cause a chain reaction.

As long as the commander on the opposite side is not a fool, and he will come and drive straight in, he will not lose money. Even if you can't eat more cities, you can make a lot of money, and when the time comes, whether it's a full-scale war or a ceasefire, you won't be able to suffer losses.

This situation is well known to most ninjas. Even those ninjas who don't have brains or are more 'Geng (white) straight (idiot', know that Konoha is not superior in the Land of Rain. The enemy is taking advantage of the void, and we are the void side. By the way, Konoha's supreme commander in the Land of Rain was shrinking his defenses while also sending them out to snipe the enemy.

-- The so-called mantis arm as a car, nothing more than that. The role they can play in these shadows is not so much a sniper as a test of the enemy's strength and as much as a delay in the opponent's march as much as possible. Consumables vs. sacrifices, it's as simple as that.

In any case, as the up-and-coming captain who was appointed by the ducks, Zhao Kun stopped his cultivation and carefully considered how to encourage the two subordinates who were upset by the truth of the matter.

"Are you afraid?" The captain, who was wearing a pure white mask without any patterns, suddenly spoke, causing the two of them to immediately focus their attention on him. The speed shows that the two of them focused considerable attention on the captain when they were chatting.

"No, as a dark part, it's not to the point of being afraid, it's just a little uneasy." The meaning in the words of the cat-faced masked man, who looked a little noisy, was very mature and calm.

"Have you ever fished for goldfish, Meow Pass?" Zhao Kun asked.

"Of course. But Captain, can you please stop giving me those strange nicknames......" The two team members looked at each other, vaguely knowing what he meant by mentioning such a seemingly unrelated matter.

"You see, when fishing for goldfish, the struggle of the goldfish is easy to destroy the fragile paper net, so it is not so easy for the fisher to fish out the goldfish."

"Captain, do you mean that we should try to avoid those powerful or struggling fish?" The man with the crow mask said immediately, unconsciously revealing the weakness in his heart.

The cat-faced masked man glanced at him, and it was because he saw his teammates' uneasiness that he deliberately gaged to ease his teammates' 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 teammates. (To be continued.) )
