Konoha, Naruto Building.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the information in front of him with a serious face. This was the information that Yin Kong Ginya had just sent back.

"Iwagakure still took action. Although it did not launch a large-scale battle, it sent out demolition troops to attack our logistics."

Danzo Shimura was also in the office, looking bad at this time.

"They have taken action, and we have to fight back. Hiruzen, do you have any ideas?"

There is only one reason to be a thief all the time, but there is no reason to guard against thieves all the time.

Facts have indeed proved that even if they send people to defend, it will not have much effect on the elites lurking underground in Yanyin Village, and it will only be a waste of manpower.

Instead of doing this, it is better to take the initiative and trade injuries for injuries to see who hurts more.

Putting down the information, Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up his pipe.

"Just bear with it for now. It's not a good time to start a formal war with Iwagakure. We'll take care of them after we deal with the Amegakure and Sunagakure coalition forces."

Shimura Danzo suddenly stood up.

"We tolerate this, but once we tolerate it, the other party will feel that we are weak in Konoha, and the subsequent harassment will become even more unscrupulous!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew in his heart that Shimura Danzo was right.

Iwagakure is definitely not someone who just settles down after taking advantage.

If Konoha didn't take any action, their harassment and probing attacks would definitely intensify until a decisive battle was launched.

But Shimura Danzo is not Hokage. As Hokage, he needs to consider the overall situation.

"You don't need to endure it for too long, at most one month... one month, the battle in Yuyin Village will be completely over."

Shimura Danzo's eyes widened. The Amegakure and Sunagakure coalition forces have made it clear that they will fight again in the spring. Spring will be at least two months, and it is only December now, which means that they will have to wait at least two months before they can reorganize their offensive, but Sarutobi Zhan said that the battle would be over in one month.

"You mean..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled and looked at the snow falling in the sky outside.

"This time it's time for us to take the initiative."

...............

Hurrying slowly, Yinkong Yinya and Hinata Tianzhu finally arrived at the front line of Yuyin.

A rather magnificent city has been built here, with people carrying food and transporting building materials coming and going, as well as craftsmen hammering on the city walls.

"This is too big, almost half of Konoha."

Ri Xiang Tianzhu said in shock.

Seeing that she looked like a country bumpkin, Yinkong Yinya explained.

Due to the combined strength of the original Jiraiya, Tsunade Hime, and Orochimaru, as well as Konoha's continuous increase in troops, the number of troops on the front line has reached as many as three thousand.

For a force of 3000 people, their food, clothing, housing, and transportation all take up space. With the addition of medical classes, barrier classes, warehouses, logistics, etc., expansion is normal.

It actually took less than a month to build such a large city. It was expanded from the original No. [-] Stronghold. Coupled with the combination of ninjutsu and manpower, the result was extremely fast construction efficiency.

The two showed their identities and walked into the city. They found that although the city was large, the buildings inside were very simple.

Ninjas occupy most of the accommodations separate from the normal ones.

The command post stands in the center of the city and is the tallest building.

Important areas such as the granary, armory, intelligence department, barrier squad, and medical squad are all heavily guarded and scattered throughout the city.

"Why are there so many ordinary people here? Isn't this the front line? They are not ninjas. What are they doing here?"

Yin Kong Ginya glanced at her: "Then tell me why there are 10,000+ ordinary people in Konoha?"

"This..."

Rixiang Tianzhu was speechless for a moment, but she was not stupid. She looked at the ordinary people next to her who were mostly working and said immediately.

"They are here to take care of logistics, right?"

Yinkong Yinya nodded.

"Yes, war not only requires ninjas, but also requires more logistics troops to maintain, build cities, build houses, take care of the wounded, make food, etc. There are about [-] logistics troops living here, responsible for the diet of the ninjas Daily life.”

The ninjas in this world can indeed perform missions in small teams for a short period of time. They are highly mobile and do not occupy much logistics. They can cross mountains and ridges and march thousands of miles.

But performing missions in the field for a short period of time and stationed in a certain place for a long period of time are completely different concepts.

The second type's consumption of ordnance, food consumption, security needs, and psychological pressure are much greater than the first type. Without a base that can provide all consumption and meet all needs, it is impossible to survive.

Only such a city with a mixture of military and civilians can provide everything needed for a long and large-scale war.

Not to mention here, even the front line of Yanyin Village is the same. There is a mixture of military and civilians, including the previous small strongholds, which are also supported by ordinary people as logistical forces.

Along the way, wherever the Yin Kong Silver Arrow went, ordinary people would avoid it. Even if they were carrying heavy objects, they would take a long way to avoid it, for fear of blocking his way.

This is the difference between levels, the levels of civilians and ninjas. Konoha in the back may be fine, and there is nothing to see.

But once they come to the front line, the status gap between ordinary people and ninjas is as big as the difference between civilians and samurai during the Warring States Period in Japan's previous life. The latter has almost 100% power over the former.

And let alone ordinary people, ANBU wearing masks like Yin Kong Ginya, even the ninjas patrolling or performing tasks along the way, would bow their heads slightly and salute when they saw them, because the identity of ANBU can be said to be almost a commander on the front line. The highest below.

After roughly walking around this frontline city, Yinkong Yinya didn't want to waste time.

He asked Hinata Tianzhu, who was actively shopping, to grab a ninja and ask for directions.

"The medical class is to the west. Walk 500 meters along the main road. Turn left and walk to the end. Do you two need us to lead the way?"

This ninja is a member of the Uchiha clan. He wears high-collar clothing and has the red and white Uchiha clan emblem embroidered on his back.

He was on patrol with two of his subordinates, and he was very polite when he saw that the person asking the question was ANBU.

Many Uchiha clan members came to the front line as early as the beginning of the war, but their ranks were not high, and they only did the drudgery of patrolling everywhere.

Families from Konoha such as Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi, Hinata, and Aburozuka came to the front line, either as commanders leading a certain stronghold, responsible for a certain front, or as heads of special departments of a certain stronghold.

But as for Uchiha, they are all big-headed soldiers, and there is no one in a high position. Almost all families in Konoha are better than them.

Therefore, when seeing ANBU, the Uchiha people also had a particularly low attitude, and even came to lead the way.

"No, Tianzhu, let's go."

Seeing the two leaving, the Uchiha captain shook his head.

"What a pity. I thought I could strike up a conversation."

The team members below were confused.

"Captain, why are you doing this to yourself? It's such a small road, they can just walk there by themselves."
