Chapter 362: The First Four Shadows Conference
"Are you sure you want to surrender?"
"As long as we can guarantee our lives, I will surrender. Of course, it would be better if we could not rob us of our wealth."
"We will not touch any money, gold and silver, houses, and shops that belong to individuals, but all the property in Shayin Village will be confiscated. The other thing is the ownership of the land of the owner, we have to re-register, and if it reaches a certain standard, it must also be confiscated."
"Including all the sand, because we don't know what's underneath the sand."
"You're greedy."
"As the Wind Shadow, you should know more secrets, and you will know that it is better to fall into our hands than in the hands of some individuals or certain families."
"......, well, although I can't accept it, I can't say you, and you are the victor, I am a defeated surrenderer, you have the final say."
In the face of Shamen's banter, the cold-faced Qianshou just sneered, and he took out two contracts that had already been written and asked Shamen to sign.
Shamen carefully looked at the two contract scrolls from the beginning, and even had the signature of the second Hokage Uchiha Madara at the end, and after confirming that it was correct, Shamen signed his name on behalf of the official surrender of the Sand Hidden Village.
On the twenty-fourth day of Madara Uchiha's preaching as Hokage, the twelfth day of the Konoha ninja army stepping out of the border, and the fourth day after the end of the Battle of the Desert, the war in the Land of Wind ended.
Kazekage Shamon led 4,000 ninjas to surrender, and about 11,000 ninjas and more than 300,000 citizens of the Land of Wind fled north into the Land of Bears, Birds, and Demons.
The exiled ninja and most of the people of the Land of Wind eventually entered the Land of Earth, and after re-electing a Kazekage, he called the second generation of the Kazekage, negating the identity of the Kazekage of Shamon, who refused to die in battle.
As the Sand Hidden Ninja entered the Land of Earth, the details of the battle in which the Konoha Ninja Village defeated the 16,000 Ninjas of the Sand Hidden Village in less than twenty minutes spread, and their determination to unify the ninja world was no longer in doubt, and all the countries in the ninja world had to think about how to deal with this monstrous wave.
Now the countries bordering the country of fire have one less country of rivers, but there are more countries of bears, birds, and ghosts, in fact, the small countries of the ninja world such as: the country of ghosts, the country of rain, the country of tea, the country of taki, the country of grass, the country of fields, the country of waves, etc., these countries know that they cannot resist the chariot of the country of fire.
Those who do not have a ninja village in these countries will lie down directly, and those who have a ninja village will run away from the whole village, fleeing to the land country and the thunder country according to their own habits and distances, and the rest of the people will lie flat in the same way.
The nobles learned about the transformation of the Fire Country after the Fire Country occupied the Wind Country and the River Country, and understood that the Fire Country was determined not to leave the nobles.
So they ran away one after another, taking refuge in the land of earth, thunder and water, and even many people entered the country of vortex to try to escape this noble disaster.
One of the smaller countries is the Iron Country, a nation founded by samurai who have been beaten by ninjas for hundreds of years, who have claimed to be permanently neutral for hundreds of years, so they send emissaries to Konoha to communicate with the Hokage, hoping to maintain their neutral status.
When Madara Uchiha heard the messenger's words, he said with great joy, "The Iron Country of 'Eternal Neutrality'? I'm laughing to death, there are neutral countries in the world that sell weapons everywhere, and I don't recognize such neutrality!"
"The ninja world must be unified."
The samurai were speechless, and the swords that were ready to be sold were not sold, sharpened and prepared for battle.
At the same time, the generals of the Iron Country know that the Iron Country has no strength to resist the Fire Country at all, and the encounter of the Wind Country proves that no one great power is enough to fight against the Fire Country alone.
Therefore, in the name of the neutral country of the Iron Country, the Admiral invited the shadows of various countries to the Iron Country to convene a ninja conference to discuss ways to fight against the evil fire country of the ninja world and form a ninja alliance.
Because of the thunder shadow, water shadow, earth shadow, and wind shadow attendees, this meeting is also called the first Four Shadows Conference.
In fact, there was also a fifth shadow in the meeting, Star Shadow of the Star Ninja Village, but everyone ignored his existence together, and no one cared about the title of "Shadow" except himself.
Only the commander of two
Does the "shadow" of the hundred ninjas also deserve to be called the shadow of the ninja world?
You see that the general of the Iron Country, obviously without the title of Shadow, can still sit at the conference table in a grand manner, talk and laugh with the Four Shadows, and preside over the meeting.
In the final analysis, it is because they have commanded more than 8,000 ninja warriors who have mastered chakra.
……
The new second generation of Kazekage first introduced the information of the battle, and as one of the witnesses, his account has a lot of real details.
He even took out a schematic diagram, which was a schematic diagram of the Konoha Village Ninja Army Legion Array that he had summarized afterwards based on what he had seen and the information he had obtained during the reconnaissance of other ninjas.
Pointing to this diagram, Kazekage recounts the battle that lasted less than twenty minutes, describing the horror of the giant ninjutsu raining down.
Eventually, Kazekage concluded, "I never thought that the samurai would be eliminated, and the Ashigaru phalanx they led would be able to exert such great power to the ninjas."
Tsuchikage Onoki looked at the formation chart of the Konoha ninja army on the table, and said thoughtfully, "I think this battle formation is very suitable for our ninjas in Iwakuin Village, as long as you practice hard for a while, you can use it freely."
"It's a pity, it's a pity that there isn't enough time." Onoki looked up to the sky and sighed, and said regretfully, "Madara Uchiha is an impatient, he will definitely let the Konoha ninja start the next war as quickly as possible."
Mizukage was also staring at this formation diagram, his eyes full of envy and helplessness.
The ninja composition of the water country is too complicated, and the state of being independent is the most powerful of the four ninja villages, everyone is copying the management organization of Konoha Village, and other ninja villages can still copy most of the institutions, but the fog hidden village has only established a tax department and a school, and even a hospital can't be established.
It can't be centralized to this extent, and this set of large-scale ninja army tactics in the Fire Country, the Fog Hidden Village can't learn it at all.
Fortunately, the Water Country is independent overseas, and it is a country composed of a series of islands, so there is no room for such large-scale warfare technology.
Lei Ying also stared at this formation diagram for a long time, Ai's age is very young, and his personality is also extremely hot, and he has to use his fists to hit people at every turn, but this is all disguise, he is actually very smart.
Thunder Shadow Ai has realized that this legion array is a product of war that can only be derived after the Fire Nation eradicates the domestic magnates and realizes the complete centralization of the Hokage, and it is not something that the Thunder Nation can simply imitate.
Seeing the speed of development of the Fire Country, which has no nobles, and the new tactics that can be implemented by the huge ninja group that has been raised, Ai finally determines that the nobles are the enemies of the country.
However, his seat in the Thunder Shadow is still unstable, and he has no ability to attack the nobles who have grown up for the time being, so he can only wait for the future.
Kazekage proposed, "We should gather our ninjas, and absorb those small ninjas and wandering ninjas to form a ninja alliance to destroy the Fire Country in one fell swoop with a thunderbolt and eliminate this great plague in the ninja world."
Tsuchikage Onoki nodded in agreement and spoke in support, "That's right, the ambitions of the Fire Nation are beyond doubt, and their brutality is also extremely terrifying, if we can't destroy the Fire Nation in time, all of our countries will eventually ...... Destroyed!"
Mizukage glanced at the other four people, and didn't say a word, the country of water is far away, and to support the country of earth, you have to pass through the country of thunder and the country of iron, and far water can't quench your thirst, and you don't have a chance to use your strength, not to mention that he doesn't have so much strength now.
Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Lei Ying smiled, and he sneered and said, "What you said makes sense, but Yunyin Village is not prepared."
"Even if we're ready, we're going to fight there?" Thunder Shadow looked at the Earth Shadow, "Are you going to the Land of Earth?"
As soon as Tsuchikage's fists tightened, and as soon as Thunder Shadow said this, he realized that it was indeed difficult for him to accept letting the Cloud Hidden Ninja set foot on the land of the Land of Earth.
I know very well that the threat of the Fire Country is still like this, how big should the opposition of the Rock Hidden Village be, and how big will the opposition of the Earth Country be?
The general said, "It's no problem for everyone's ninjas to come to our Iron Country, but look at the current situation, Konoha's
The next target is the Land of Earth, and there is no intention of attacking the Land of Iron."
"There is no problem with the Iron Country, but unfortunately unless our forces completely overwhelm the Fire Country and launch a counterattack, we will not need to assemble in the Iron Country."
Of course, there is another situation that can be used, and that is when the land of earth is destroyed, and the soldiers of the country of fire are pointed at the country of iron.
Lei Ying glanced at Tsuchikage Onoki and decided not to stimulate this little man anymore, this guy's temper is also quite stubborn, and the enemy will not provoke him at the moment.
After a fierce quarrel, the Anti-Fire Nation Alliance was successfully established, but the matter of forming a ninja alliance was not resolved, and the Land of Earth, the Land of Thunder, and the Land of Water each had their own concerns and troubles.
The three major countries had no way to give up their differences, and the other small countries together couldn't get together five thousand ninjas, and the ninja alliance was naturally aborted.
Fortunately, the plan for the joint attack was still discussed, and the Iwain Village and the Sand Hidden Village combined with the Star Hidden Village, the Stone Hidden Village, the Valley Hidden Village, and a large number of wandering ninjas to form a coalition army.
They are responsible for resisting the invasion of 40,000 Konoha ninjas in the Land of Earth, the Land of Thunder unites the villages of Takiin and the village of Kusakure to attack the Land of Fire from the north, and the Village of Fog to attack the Land of Fire from the east.
"It's okay to attack the Fire Country, but ......" Mizukage asked in a cold tone, "Vortex Country, what about Vortex Hidden Village?"
The Iron Country General said, "I'll send someone to contact them, it's best to pull them to the side of the Ninja Alliance, if it doesn't work, let them choose neutrality, and don't help each other."
"Yes, but if the Vortex Nation does not choose to join us and defeats the Fire Nation in the future, I will definitely destroy this hateful nation."
Thunder Shadow sneered, "Okay, I heard that the Fire Country seals the Tailed Beast, and the person who creates the human pillar power is the princess of the Vortex Country, Uzumaki Mito. If we destroy the Vortex Country, we in Yunyin Village are willing to do our part, but we have to have a share in the sealing technique of the Vortex Country."
As soon as Tsuchikage heard this topic, he immediately came to his senses, and he said unceremoniously, "Iwakuin Village will never give up its due interests, nor will it be unearned, and we will also contribute."
"And the tailed beasts have to be redistributed."
Thunder Shadow said loudly, "Okay, the tailed beasts will also be redistributed!"
Kazekage snorted coldly: "No matter how you divide it, one tail was taken away by Konoha from my Sand Hidden Village, it must be ours, and we have to divide another one, and the sealing technique is even more indispensable!"
Thunder Shadow looked at Kazekage coldly: "After winning the battle against Konoha, your Sand Hidden Village can regain your country and village, and you dare to expect more things, it's a bit overwhelming."
Kazekage unceremoniously pushed back, "Strength? Where is our lack of strength in Shayin Village? Thunder Shadow, what my 12,000 Sand Hidden Ninjas are best at is Wind Escape!"
Immediately after that, there was a fierce quarrel, and the Wind Shadow, Earth Shadow, Thunder Shadow, and Water Shadow greeted each other with all kinds of vulgar words, and used various arguments to prove that the other party was lucky to live to this day.
The quarrel didn't last long, and soon they were able to stop and calmly agree on the timing of the attack between Yunyin Village and Wuyin Village.
Mizukage and Thunder Shadow were reluctant to attack in advance, fearing that their attack would make Konoha's next target change from Earth Country to himself, and that would be to prevent the disaster for Iwakuin Village in vain.
But the earth shadow can't accept their slow attack, the strength of the Fire Country is visible to the naked eye, and the Iwakuin Village and the Sand Hidden Village plus the ninjas of other small countries are just 30,000 ninjas.
The difference between 30,000 and 40,000 does not seem to be particularly large, and the Fire Country has also allocated troops to occupy the Kawano Country and the Wind Country, and at least 10,000 people will be used for garrisoning, which means that the two sides are likely to be equal in numbers.
But the gap in the quality of the ninjas on both sides is too big, and there are thousands of miscellaneous ninjas mixed in the 30,000 people of the coalition army, and they generally have to be used by one level.
And the Konoha Ninja is not only a genuine Ninja of the Great Ninja Village, but also a Konoha Ninja Army that has undergone ten years of training, and the combat effectiveness shown is very exaggerated.
The coalition forces fought against the Konoha ninja army, and Kazekage and Tsuchikage knew that they were weak defenders and would not be able to resist for too long.
It's a matter of national fortune and life and death, this
The question was repeatedly and fiercely debated between the four shadows, and no one would take a step back.
But they also knew that this issue had to be settled, and they couldn't waste too much time, so the four shadows were awkwardly quiet.
The general of the Iron Country tentatively proposed, "Why don't you choose the day when Konoha invades the Land of Earth, at that time, the attack of Cloud Hidden Village and Fog Hidden Village does not have to worry about Konoha ambush, and you can also mobilize a large number of ninjas to return and relieve the pressure on Earth Country."
Tsuchikage shook his head, the means of communication were limited, and when they found out about the attack, even if they notified it immediately, it would take two days to notify the Thunder Shadow at the earliest, and the Mizukage would be even slower to learn the news, and it would be easy for the Fire Nation to take advantage of the time difference to break them one by one.
"Forget it, let's set a time." Thunderkage asked Tsuchikage, "Tsuchikage, if you think Konoha is about to attack, you can send the information directly."
"Five days after the Tsuchikage sent it, three days after I received the information, and one day after the Mizukage received the information, no matter whether Konoha really launched an attack or not, we will attack at the same time!"
Mizukage immediately nodded in agreement, the geographical conditions of the water country are the best, and his strategic maneuver is the largest, so it is relatively easy to accept.
On the contrary, the danger of the land country is imminent, and the earth shadow closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and finally agreed: "Good! Even if the Fire Nation doesn't attack, I'll attack the Fire Nation from the Rain Nation to the Fire Nation."
