Chapter 677 Sunagakure Peace Talks and Naoki’s Ambition

The war situation in the Kingdom of Wind has undergone a shocking reversal in a month. The Konoha ninja army, which was originally in trouble, attacked the city and annexed a large amount of territory and population.

Although various countries had a premonition that Sunagakure was going to be in trouble after the truth about the assassination of the Third Kazekage was exposed, they did not expect that the situation would change so quickly.If this continues, within a few months, most of the Wind Country may be occupied by Konoha. The rope tree taught the top leaders of various countries a good lesson. It turns out that people and public opinion are so important in a war. There is a world of difference between the Land of Wind and the now unpopular Sunagakure Village. Konoha's guidance of public opinion this time also amazed all countries. After this incident, all countries have paid more attention to public opinion and people's hearts than ever before.At least they won't make the same mistake as the senior management of Sunagakure Village again.

Countries still have the opportunity to learn lessons and make corrections, but Sunagakure Village, which was used as a negative teaching material, now has no chance to correct itself. Both the people and the daimyo government are very disappointed with Sunagakure's series of mistakes.The daimyo government looks at the problem from a different perspective than the civilians. They have no opinion on the conspiracy of Sunagakure senior officials to trace the corpse of the Third Kazekage and sneak attack on Konoha. At the beginning, they fully supported it. Everyone is a politician. This kind of conspiracy has been around for a long time. Just got used to it.But what they couldn't accept was that all Sunagakure's plots had failed. First, the hundred thousand ninja army in the sneak attack was wiped out, and then the scandal broke out that the Red Sand Scorpion assassinated the third Kazekage. The Land of Wind was disgraced to the whole world. , and on the battlefield, Konoha beat you so hard that you lost a large area of ​​territory continuously, but they were still reasonable, and they accused you of being despicable and shameless while fighting, without even a chance to talk back.Therefore, the Daimyo government could no longer tolerate the incompetence of this scumbag teammate in Sunagakure Village. Why should the entire Kingdom of Wind be responsible for the trouble you caused? So they gave Sunagakure an ultimatum with logistics funds as a bargaining chip. Demanding an end to the war within a month.

And Luo Sha, who had just taken the position of Kazekage, was faced with such a dilemma of internal and external troubles, and after thinking hard, he could not find an effective way to retreat from the enemy.Now that guerrilla tactics have been broken, in a head-on confrontation, fifty thousand Sand Ninjas are definitely no match for one hundred thousand Konoha Ninja Army, and these Sand Ninjas are the last essence of Sunagakure Village. If they fail again, Sunagakure Village may really have to fight. perished.

So after much thought, Rasa came to the conclusion that the only way to end this war was to seek peace from Konoha.It would be better if the [-] Amomum villosum that had been captured previously could be redeemed through negotiation.Of course, he also understands that if Isagakure wants peace talks due to the current situation, Konoha will definitely put forward a series of harsh conditions. At least a large area of ​​territory that is currently occupied will definitely not come back.But now this is the only way to end the war. If it is delayed until a month later, without the logistic support of the Daimyo government, Sunagakure will definitely collapse.If it were Sunagakure Village when the Third Kazekage was in power, the daimyo government would never have the guts to make such a threat.But now the Sunagakure Village has completely lost the support of the people. The Daimyo government has the confidence to impose sanctions on the Sunagakure Village. Even if the entire Sunagakure Village is destroyed, at most it will be replaced by another ninja village to support it. As long as they provide enough financial support, Konoha will definitely It will not embarrass the Daimyo government of the Country of Wind, and the people will not have much opposition.

Of course, the disadvantaged Sunagakure Village is more in line with the interests of the wind daimyo and the nobles than the powerful shogunate, so they will not abandon Sunagakure easily unless they have to.The reason for the request to end the war within a month was not that they really expected Sunagakure to win. It was also a hint that they were actively seeking peace and did not want to take the blame themselves.

Luo Sha had just become the Wind Shadow, so naturally she didn't want to be accused of losing her power and humiliating the country, so the two consultants who had already made a messy statement became the best candidates to take the blame.

Soon, during a recent military meeting, two advisers "proactively" proposed a proposal to seek peace from Konoha to end the war.

As the Kazekage, Luo Sha was initially strongly opposed to this proposal of losing power and humiliating the country. However, after the two consultants argued hard and gained the support of most of the senior officials, Luo Sha reluctantly agreed to the peace proposal. proposed and left the negotiation work to the two consultants.

In short, this military meeting was very successful. Everyone showed superb acting skills. Luo Sha achieved his goal as he wished, and the two advisers were willing to take the blame. Reputation is no longer important to them anyway. , the most important thing is to surrender to Luo Sha and stabilize his position through this matter.

It's a pity that although Sunagakure's senior officials are very good at playing internal political tricks, they don't have a clear view of the external situation. Their sue for peace is a bit wishful and they don't consider whether Konoha will agree.

After two months of fighting, although Konoha has captured a large area of ​​the Kingdom of Wind's territory, even if the entire Western Forest District is included, it is only one-fifth of the total area of ​​the Kingdom of Wind.

The Rope Tree has been preparing for this war for a long time. It took a lot of effort to create such a good opportunity. How could it be stopped so easily?

The country of wind is almost the largest in area, and its potential will be even greater after the climate recovers. Only one-fifth of the land cannot satisfy the appetite of the rope tree.Moreover, all the conditions provided by the Kingdom of Wind are inferior to the territory and population, so Rope Tree does not want to stop at this time.

Of course, in order to avoid arousing the resistance of the people of the Land of Wind again, Sunagakure's request for peace with the rope tree was not completely rejected.With the current power of the General's Office in the Fire Nation and the reputation and status of Skywalker's Konoha, the rope tree easily became the representative of Konoha and had full authority to handle this negotiation.

Nao Shu once again received Sunagakure's two advisors within the Tianxing Fortress and started negotiations.

However, Konoha did not stop the offensive because of the peace talks. Instead, it took advantage of the low morale of the Sunagakure ninja army to speed up the offensive.

Although Sunagakure was unhappy with Naoki's arrogant behavior of fighting and talking at the same time, they still had to compromise due to the formality. They just wanted to end the war as soon as possible.

However, Shengshu, who completely grasped the other party's psychology, delayed the negotiation time and deliberately put forward many harsh conditions, such as ceding half of the territory of the Kingdom of Wind, even the mining rights of several gold mines, and a tail. Shukaku's ownership rights and other conditions directly point to the fundamental interests of the Kingdom of Wind.

Of course, the two consultants would not agree to such excessive conditions, but Shengshu insisted on not letting go of the conditions, which caused the negotiations to be delayed indefinitely.

At the same time, Konoha's offensive is still continuing, with towns being captured every day. If it continues like this, Konoha may slowly annex the Kingdom of Wind. It is not until an unexpected thing happens that the situation changes.
