My Wife is Tsunade Konoha - Chapter 196
c196 The beginning of the war
Ancient unknown virgin forest.
After Qingshu left the Sky Fortress, he spent a week here with Minato and the Xuanjia Army.
In the distance is a vast and boundless plain.
Shangyang City in the center is very lively at the moment.
Within a week, the Fire Nation’s army of 150,000 captured the city, and no one could stop it.
It’s not because of how powerful they are, it’s just that there are so many people.
In a sense, in the ninja world of the feudal era, the most important factor in war is to see who has more troops.
In addition, the army of the Kingdom of Thunder did not arrive in time, giving the army of the Kingdom of Fire a chance.
But they can only go so far.
Behind the Joyo Plain lies the Ontake Mountains.
There are seven levels.
They can only attack by force.
Qingshu withdrew his gaze and looked at the spread map.
“Teacher, according to Anbu’s news, the army of the Kingdom of Thunder has passed through the Ontake Mountains and arrived at Shangyang City last night. It seems that they want to start a decisive battle on the Shangyang Plain.”
Minato used a red dot as a mark, and he asked suspiciously, “This is not in line with the conventional army deployment. The seven passes in the Mitake Mountains are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Logically speaking, we should retreat here.”
“It can only explain one problem, they are very confident.”
Qingshu sat opposite him, “There may be two sources of this confidence. One is that the performance of the Army of the Fire Nation in the past week is really average, and the other is the fourth generation of Raikage Ai.”
Minato nodded. He pondered and said, “The third reason may be that the generals of the Land of Thunder want to take credit.”
He has been in the metropolis of the Fire Nation for seven years, and he knows the nobles very well.
Once there is something cheap to do, it is like a fly that smells and swarms.
The war has suffered the common people and fattened the nobles.
Especially when you have the certainty of winning.
“Tsk, it’s a good show.”
Qingshu was not surprised, he had watched a lot of TV and movies in his previous life, so he knew what Minato needed.
“Minato, tell me how the Fourth Raikage will help the Army of the Land of Thunder win?”
Shuimen looked at the red dot on the map, and after a moment of silence, he said, “If it were me, the king would be the first to capture the thief.”
Sunshine smiled.
Minato was already smart, and he stayed in the military camp for another seven years, and he also heard the classic battles that Qingshu told him.
Thinking or something far surpasses any general of the five major countries.
It is not too much to say that he is a famous general in the ninja world.
“The Fourth Raikage entered the barracks alone. If he wanted to win quickly, this is the only way. The most important thing is that he has the speed and strength.”
“Teacher, what about us? What should we do? Ryo Hiraga sent several invitations to our Xuanjia Army.”
Minato took out the water bag and took a sip of water.
Ryo Hiraga is currently the nominal supreme commander of the Fire Nation army.
The original five generals have been disposed of by Oda Kenzhang.
Ryo Hiraga is the tall guy pulled out by the short guy.
Although the level is not as good as the previous five generals, it is already the best choice for the Land of Fire.
“How did you come back?” Qingshu asked curiously.
“I said I don’t have any interest in being a daimyo, so I won’t participate.”
Minato shrugged, pointed to the large trees nearby, and said, “Then I ran to this forest with the Xuanjia Army.”
Haruki always felt that Minato had learned about his black belly.
He didn’t bother with this anymore, and said: “Your next task is the same as that of the fourth generation of Raikage.”
“Same?”
Haruki’s answer was beyond Minato’s expectations, and he couldn’t help but feel surprised.
He originally thought that the task of the Xuanjia Army was to end the fighting between the two sides and come out to deal with the aftermath.
“Well. I know what you think, but the army of the Land of Fire has a complex composition. Although there are many in number, the hearts of the people are not united. Against the army of the Land of Thunder, it is almost inevitable failure. I suspect that it will be difficult for them to fight The army took huge losses.
The Xuanjia Army only has 10,000. Even after the end, it is not easy to get a bargain. My idea is that in a fierce battle, you lead the cavalry, enter the battlefield from a weak point, and go straight to the enemy’s headquarters. ”
Minato’s eyes lit up.
The idea fit his heart well.
Going into battle and killing enemies is his favorite way.
After getting along with the soldiers for a long time, Minato was unknowingly affected.
“And the timing of your action must be after the fourth generation of Raikage.”
Qingshu emphasized, “Try not to be discovered by him in advance, otherwise, the plan may not be successful.”
“I see.”
Minato nodded seriously.
…
The killing atmosphere on the plain is getting stronger and stronger.
Ryo Hiraga was once again rejected by Minato.
He couldn’t help feeling angry rushing to his heart.
If it wasn’t for Minato being Konoha’s ninja, he must be pulled out and beheaded for public display.
After calming down, Ryo Hiraga felt a headache again.
During this week, the Army of the Fire Nation disappointed him very much.
More than a third of the private army, he is completely unable to dispatch.
At the same time, the discipline is extremely poor.
Apart from excellent equipment and good strength, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a bandit.
Along the way, they killed, burned, looted and tortured, and committed all kinds of evil.
The war has become a zero-yuan purchase.
Because of this, Ryo Hiraga understands that such an army has no chance of winning against the Kingdom of Thunder.
Moreover, the Kingdom of Thunder also has a defensive advantage.
But these stupid nobles actually think that equal numbers mean equal strength.
hell!
He suspected that this week’s invincibility had given them an illusion.
Ryo Hiraga is probably the most sober person.
He knew that the key player in victory or defeat was Minato’s Xuanjia Army.
The Xuanjia Army had a great record in helping Oda Kensho get the title of daimyo last time, and they are definitely the most elite army in the Land of Fire.
But the helpless thing is that the person who commands them is Konoha Ninja.
Minato said that he was not interested in daimyo, but Ryo Hiraga always found it strange.
If so, why did he lead his army into the Land of Thunder?
What exactly does the Xuanjia Army want to do?
After some thought to no avail, Pinghe stood up and looked at Xiongcheng outside the door.
By now, he could no longer retreat.
It’s a pity that the time is too short.
If it takes a few more days, he will be sure to capture Shangyang City, reach the Yuyue Mountains, and then disband.
That’s right, break up.
Although the seven passes in Yuyue Mountains are easy to defend and difficult to attack, they are an opportunity.
His original plan was for everyone to choose a pass to attack based on their abilities, and see who could enter the metropolis first.
But Ryo Hiraga has done his best.
It’s just too much hindrance.
In response to that sentence, you are not afraid of godly opponents, but pig teammates.
Besides, he had the same doubt as Raikage, where did Konoha’s 10,000 ninja army go?
Ryo Hiraga deeply understands that ninjas can completely affect the situation of the battle.
The sun gradually rises.
Hiraga Ryo looked at the group of nobles who entered the camp, and couldn’t help sighing.
This is a war, not an outing.
“General Hiraga, this battle is under your command. I hope you won’t disappoint us.”
“I do my best.”
Ping Heliang suddenly raised his head and rushed out of the camp. The gate of Shangyang City in the distance opened wide, and immediately there was a roar of horseshoes.
What followed was a dense and uniform army.
Cavalry in front, followed by archers and infantry.
Spread out on the plain.
“how so?”
Ryo Hiraga couldn’t quite understand it. It is a better choice to defend the city.
Unless you have absolute confidence, there is no need to confront each other head-on.
Feeling the tremors on the ground, he got on his horse and shouted loudly: “All troops muster!”
