Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

Chapter 279: The Vast Ocean of People's War

The revolutionary idea of ​​"equality for all, overthrow of oppression" put forward by the resistance army deeply touched the people who were living in dire straits.

In the villages and towns that were liberated across the country, people saw real changes, no longer just verbal promises, but tangible benefits such as land reform and resource redistribution.

More and more civilians spontaneously joined the resistance army. They not only fought to defend their land and rights, but also fought for the ideals of the revolution.

On the surface, the Five-Nation Alliance possessed powerful military forces and equipment, but in essence they were a tool to maintain the feudal system.

As the encirclement and suppression campaign progressed, they gradually lost the support of the people.

Wherever the Five Nations Alliance went, the people who originally supported the nobles and lords were persecuted, their property was robbed, and they were even forced into combat slavery.

It was precisely because of these atrocities that the Five-Nation Alliance not only failed to fundamentally destroy the rebels, but instead pushed more and more people into the arms of the rebels.

The rebels, through the power of the masses, have a great advantage in intelligence and resource support.

Whenever the Five-Nation Coalition was about to launch a large-scale offensive, the rebels had already grasped the enemy's movements through the people's intelligence network, and quickly moved, hid, or even turned around to attack the isolated forces of the coalition.

The rebels relied on guerrilla tactics to attack the enemy's weak logistical lines and weaken their material supplies, causing the front-line troops of the Five-Nation Alliance to often lack key resources such as food, fodder, and weapons, and their morale to plummet.

As time went on, the Five-Nation Alliance fell into serious resource depletion and internal conflicts.

Although the daimyos of major countries provided a large amount of economic support and resources, these resources were gradually exhausted in the face of a protracted war, and the conflicts between the daimyos of various countries began to intensify due to ineffective encirclement and suppression.

Most of the coalition soldiers were ordinary people. During the long battle, many people gradually awakened and realized that their enemies were actually ordinary people of the same class as them. They began to defect and even joined the resistance.

The ranks of the rebels continued to grow stronger through battles and land revolutions.

Even the main force of the Five-Nation Coalition found it difficult to find the main force of the rebels.

In each encirclement and suppression operation, the rebels were able to retreat flexibly, but in the process of retreat, they continued to spread the seeds of revolution everywhere.

Small resistance organizations sprang up everywhere. Although they fought independently, they all shared the common ideal of overthrowing the feudal system.

Meanwhile, Shadow Moon continued to provide strength to the rebels through his practice.

There are more and more practitioners of Taiping Dao. Ordinary people use natural energy through practice and gain combat power comparable to that of ninjas, which greatly improves the combat level of the rebels.

Although the Five-Nation Coalition had the upper hand in the initial encirclement and suppression, as the number of immortal arts practitioners in the rebel army increased, they gradually reversed the situation in the battle.

A year later, the resistance forces had spread throughout the ninja world.

From the desert oases of the Wind Kingdom to the mountains of the Earth Kingdom and the villages of the Fire Kingdom, the flags of the resistance have been planted in all countries.

The Five-Nation Alliance was on the brink of collapse due to fatigue from long-term war, low morale, and intensified internal conflicts.

Faced with this dilemma, the daimyos of various countries realized that the old order of the ninja world was collapsing and they were no longer able to stop the rise of the resistance.

As the leader behind the resistance, Shadow Moon knows that this revolutionary war is not only a military struggle, but also a struggle of ideas.

He had seen that the old feudal system was crumbling and a new social form was brewing.

Through the guerrilla warfare and land revolution of the resistance army, the people of the ninja world gradually realized that their destiny was in their own hands, rather than being dominated by the nobles and daimyo.

Shadow Moon's influence in the resistance is growing. He believes that a society where everyone is equal and resources are shared is gradually taking shape.

"The sky of the ninja world is changing." Yingyue looked into the distance. He knew that although the road to revolution was still long, the dawn of victory had quietly risen.

As the daimyos of various countries increased their support for the Five-Nation Alliance, they realized that continuing to delay the war would only make the rebels stronger and weaken their control over the country.

Therefore, the daimyos of various countries decided to go all out and formed a huge army of 60,000, including 50,000 ordinary soldiers and more than 10,000 ninjas from major ninja villages, to carry out the final encirclement and suppression operation.

This time their target is the main force of the rebels - the 8,000 elite rebels led by Hatake Sakumo who fought all the way from the Land of Wind to the Land of Rice.

Although this rebel force is small in size, it is the team with the most determined fighting will and the strongest combat effectiveness in the entire rebel army.

They went through a long journey from the Oasis of the Kingdom of Wind to the Kingdom of Fields, crossed many small countries, liberated countless people, and won a lot of support.

However, faced with such a large encirclement and suppression force, the rebels fell into an unprecedented dilemma.

As the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village and the leader of the Aurora Organization, Uchiha Kagezuki actually played an extremely delicate role.

He had to maintain the superficial order of Konoha while secretly supporting the rebels. He knew that this encirclement and suppression operation had reached a critical moment in determining the future of the ninja world.

Yingyue used his own intelligence network to accurately grasp the movements of the Five-Nation Coalition Forces.

He knew clearly that the total strength of the army composed of ordinary people plus the elite ninja forces was close to 60,000, which was almost the main elite of all countries in the ninja world.

If the main force of the resistance army is annihilated this time, the entire revolutionary movement will suffer a severe blow. Therefore, the resistance army cannot fail.

Shadow Moon faces a difficult decision.

Although he had been secretly obstructing the actions of the Five-Nation Coalition through the Shadow Organization, preventing the encirclement and suppression from causing a fatal blow to the rebels, this time, the enemy's scale and strength were unprecedentedly powerful.

Yingyue knew very well that it would be difficult to support this battle with only Hatake Sakumo's 8,000 resistance troops.

Although his incarnation possesses the strength of a Kage, he is unable to use advanced ninjutsu such as Wood Release, Sharingan or Susanoo, which puts him in a passive position in this battle.

However, Shadow Moon decided to fight.

He knew that the rebels had to hold out to the end, even if the battle was extremely difficult.

The encirclement and suppression operation has formed an encirclement, and the rebels have no way to retreat.

After careful consideration, Yingyue personally notified Hatake Sakumo and asked him to be prepared.

This battle will determine the future direction of the ninja world.

Upon learning that they would soon be facing such a large coalition force, Hatake Sakumo immediately began organizing the resistance's defense.

They set up layers of defense at strategic locations within the Land of Fields and used guerrilla tactics using the terrain advantage.
