Naruto God Tree Arrives

"Hope" Kato Dan asked with some confusion, and other senior officials were also a little confused about Naoki's answer.

"Yes, I hope." Naoki nodded and said, "If we divide our forces to attack the towns around the mountains, our strength and location will not be concealed afterwards. Do you think that if Yunyin finds that his retreat and supplies are cut off, he will be completely trapped in the mountains? How will China react?”

"If it were me, of course I would break out immediately. Why don't I just wait for death in the mountains?" Jiraiya said without thinking.

"That's right, it's a breakout." Shengshu smiled and nodded: "There is an allusion called Leaving the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat. It tells that in ancient times, a general led an army of 6 to fight against the enemy's 20 enemies. At that time, the general's troops were trapped in a big river and The powerful enemy was unable to advance or retreat for a while. In order to encourage his subordinates, the general ordered his men to smash the cooking pots and burn the boats crossing the river. He only retained three days of dry food in the whole year to fight the enemy. After there was no way to retreat, , the 20 troops under the general's command unleashed a powerful fighting force, fighting to the death with [-] enemies. After nine battles and nine victories, they finally defeated all the enemies with a small number and a large number.

After listening to this story, you will understand what I mean.”

"What do you mean, Naoki, to deliberately leave hope to prevent Kumogakure from burning the boat like that general?" Tsunade asked with a raised eyebrow.

"That's right." Naoki nodded with certainty: "If we block all of Kumogakure's back roads, then they will be surrounded from the front and rear. This situation is very similar to that of the general. Kumogakure's troop strength is 16 Ten thousand, and the army must have more than three days of food and grass. If they all fight to the death, can we stop them?"

"Nature can't be stopped." Tsunade glanced at Kato Dan, who was frowning and thinking, and shook his head seriously: "We only have 19 troops, and the flat plateau behind the mountains is completely undefendable. If we divide our troops into various towns, There is no way to block Kumogakure's retreat, but the other party may concentrate its forces to defeat them one by one."

Naoki nodded and said: "That's it, and don't forget that Kumogakure's way out is not just ours. In fact, I am more afraid of them launching a direct attack on the Kingdom of Frost."

"The Land of Frost" Jiraiya was stunned for a moment and then said in a funny tone: "Noseki, you are thinking too much, right? There are 20 coalition commanders here, and the cold weather is perfect for guerrilla warfare. Unless Kumo Yin is crazy, Only then would I choose this direction.”

"Is that what you think?" Naoki said disapprovingly: "As the saying goes, soldiers are impermanent, power is impermanent, and water is impermanent. Any situation may happen in a war. What we have to do is to prevent all accidents. If I were the commander of Yunyin, After learning that the escape route is cut off, I will definitely lead the army to attack the Kingdom of Frost instead of turning around and fighting back."

"Why did you say before that the environment of the Kingdom of Frost is the most suitable for guerrilla tactics?" Tsunade asked curiously.

"The premise of guerrilla tactics is that the enemy's goal is to occupy a certain area." Naoki looked at the curious Konoha executives around him and explained: "The terrain of the Frost Country is small, and the Frost Ninja and Tang Ninja are the latest to surrender. In cooperation with our Konoha Ninja Army, if Kumogakure gives up occupying towns, only grabs supplies to support the war, and breaks out to the Kingdom of Yu with all his strength, the Kingdom of Frost will be unstoppable with its current combat power.

Nowadays, the people of Yuno Country are undecided and their troops are empty. Once Kumogakure's army invades, liberal arts ninjas will definitely not be our opponents, and the local civilians will not support us. To them, there is no difference between us and Kumo ninjas. It doesn't matter which side they surrender to. .

By then, Kumo Ninja's 16-strong army will be completely

Using Yuno Country as our base, we can obtain enough supplies to maintain the consumption of the army, and even blockade the ports of Yuno Country to cut off our retreat.

What's worse is that if Kumogakure takes the opportunity to form an alliance with Kirigakure and besiege the Fire Country's homeland, then Konoha, which has only 20 troops in the homeland, will be passive.It can even affect the whole body, causing a series of unknown chain reactions on the battlefields of the Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Wind, and our situation will completely collapse. "

A group of Konoha high-level officials broke out in cold sweat on their foreheads after hearing the horrific consequences described by Nasuki. They did not expect that this operation would have such a big flaw.

"We must not let the Kumo ninja break out from the Kingdom of Frost." Jiraiya said with a serious face at this time: "It should be too late to send troops to the Kingdom of Frost now. If you give Noden Tree not only [-] troops but [-], I guarantee that we can do it." block them"

"Haha" Naoki waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous. It's just a hypothesis. As long as we don't block the escape route of the Kumo ninja and leave them with hope of breaking out, it's impossible for them to risk breaking through to the Kingdom of Frost." "

Jiraiya was still a little worried: "But just in case."

"There is no such thing as a chance," Nao Shu interrupted and said, "The same strategy will have very different consequences under different circumstances. If Kumo Gakure's command forces the army to attack the Kingdom of Frost knowing that there is a way out, Then the ninja army will not only not fight to the death but will be disorganized. By then, the combat strength will definitely be inferior to the 20 coalition forces of the Kingdom of Frost. If they really act like this, then we will just march to the mountains to take over the border defense line, and fight with the Kingdom of Frost's The coalition forces attacked from behind and annihilated all the Kumo ninjas in the ice and snow."

When the senior officials heard this, they suddenly understood. Of course they understood how important morale was to the army. For example, in the story of the Burning Cauldron, the general was able to defeat 20 with [-] soldiers by using the morale inspired by the soldiers' desire to survive.If you are not in a desperate situation and are surrounded by enemies from both sides, leading the army to give up your defensive advantage to fight the enemy decisively is no different from seeking death. No wise commander would do this.

After thinking about this, the senior management present looked at Shengshu with admiration in their eyes. What is strategizing and winning from thousands of miles away? This is it.

Kushina and Natsuhi Hoshi, who had never spoken, looked at Naoki with watery eyes, like shining stars.It was their first time to participate in a war and they were inexperienced, so they had not spoken just now, and they even couldn't understand. However, this did not hinder their admiration for Shengshu. They felt that Shengshu's expression when he spoke just now was so handsome.

"Lord Nogeki, you really have a plan. The exit left for the enemy is not only a way to escape, but also a way to vent their morale. We have also eliminated the fatal hidden dangers and established an invincible position." Kato Dan said with admiration on his face: "Only It’s a pity that in this way we lost the opportunity to completely annihilate Kumo Ninja.”

"Haha" Naoki said with a nonchalant smile: "That's not necessarily the case, can't we chase them all the way? How long can the Kumo ninja persist without supplies? And once the opponent abandons the mountain defense line, the 20 coalition troops on the other side of the mountain can Enter the Kingdom of Thunder and join forces with us. Moreover, without understanding our military strength, Kumogakure's reaction may not be so decisive. We have won this war, but what the harvest will be depends on Kumogakure's methods. Is it clever? At the worst, they can control the border defense line of the Kingdom of Thunder and completely block them in the country. This mountain range is called the Angel Mountains by the Kingdom of Thunder, which means the patron saint. But they never thought that once this patron saint fell In the hands of the enemy, it will be called a shackle that locks them. From now on, Kumogakure's ninja army will never be able to step into the center of the continent."
