Naruto: History of the Warring States Period

Chapter 621

But even though their tribe wanted to do this, at this time, although the empire was in a state of recuperation, the same was true for the grassland, and the loss of the grassland was actually greater than that of the empire. The foundation is not as good as the empire. What is there? Would people be willing to follow them?

Moreover, Saladine is very clear. Just in the north of the empire, in the south of their grassland, there is still a “preliminary beast” dormant, and he is still the master in the secret. Saladine dare not touch someone’s beard at this time. .

Especially after the empire developed bilateral trade with the grassland, both sides have gained a lot of profits. Most of all, Shaladin knew that the grassland suffered a loss in general, but it is better to be profitable than to get nothing, and It is precisely because of the benefits brought by this bilateral trade that Shaladin’s prestige has increased to a higher level.

Therefore, although their tribe has repeatedly proposed a counterattack and revenge plan to the royal court, they have always failed, except for some people who have made little remarks, and in the bilateral trade, there is either no benefit or too little benefit. The few small tribes with resentment have not received the support of even a large and medium-sized tribe.

The center of the tribe, in the chief tent.

At this time, in the chief tent, almost all the powerful figures and respected elders of this tribe gathered together.

“Boss, what do we do now, those idiots from other tribes are now completely overwhelmed by the ‘trade’ of this fellow Shaladin. If this continues, our grassland will be over!”

A tall and wide burly man asked with an urn angrily about a middle-aged man with a gloomy face sitting in the main seat.

This middle-aged man is the only son of Muhammad, the former leader of the tribe, the Caliph.

“Yeah, boss, XX is right, let’s go on…”

“This kind of grassland is no longer the previous grassland. The grassland now is full of mist, full of smoke everywhere…”

“…”

The people underneath talked and talked, and soon, the whole big tent suddenly became a piece of noise, and it almost became a vegetable market.

“Snapped!”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

At this moment, the leader of the tribe, the Caliph, who was sitting in the first place, suddenly slapped his palm on the table in front of him. The whole table was shot to pieces in an instant, and all the affairs on the table fell on the table. Ground.

Until then, everyone saw the Caliph’s face that was already sinking like water, and immediately everyone stopped talking. Everyone was sitting on pins and needles, bowing their heads without saying a word.

“Say, noisy, go on! Ah? Why don’t you say it!”

Although the Caliph was already angry in his heart, he was obviously a more generous person. He didn’t shout loudly, and asked calmly, but that’s it, everyone seemed even more frightened.

“Since you don’t say anything, then, for me! This time my decision is that no matter whether the other tribes on the grassland are willing to our proposal, I will launch a war, and I don’t need to pay attention to Shaladin, and wait until we succeed. After the war, they will have no choice but to stop the war. The group of people in the empire will not care which tribe initiated the war. They will only think that this is another war started by our steppe people! When the time comes, ours The goal has been achieved!”

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, the Caliph’s expression was slightly less serious than before, and he continued lightly.

“what……”

“Promote the war directly?”

“…”

After hearing the words of the caliph, suddenly everyone’s mind was as if there was a thunder on the ground, and all of them exploded.

Although they are very dissatisfied with the “profit-only” of other tribes on the grassland, and although they are very dissatisfied with the so-called bilateral trade initiated by the Great Khan Shaladin and the introduction of some “luxury goods” from the empire, they are also very dissatisfied with the so-called bilateral trade. Never thought of using the power of a tribe to provoke a war between the entire grassland and the empire.

The consequences of this are too serious, and the loss will definitely be great. After all, no one knew that there would be war in the early stage. Maybe they could take advantage of the sudden attack, but as long as the Northern Army reflects it, then they are a tribe. It was overwhelmingly unstoppable, and even if the war started, even if Shaladin and other tribes swallowed their voices during the war, they would never let them go after the war. This is a thankless thing.

“Uh, chief, chief, this, is there really no problem in doing this? If we should know that if we provoked it first, let alone whether those tribes will help, even if they will help unite the army again, then we must be able to Will you win? Three years have passed. Now the empire has 300,000 soldiers in the north. What about after the war, what if Shaladin and other tribes “liquid” us after the war?”

The discussion in the hall didn’t last long, only a gray-haired old man stood up and asked the Caliph.

This old man is also a respected elder of this tribe. Although he also supports the tribe to unite the grassland to launch war and revenge, he is not too supportive of such extreme methods. You must know that there is no way out, so I heard that the leader Caliph To take such an extreme route, he immediately became full of worries about the prospects of his tribe.

Although the Caliph is a vicious person, he is almost always external, and internally he can still be fair, so he can inherit his father’s position, and he also knows the old man’s mentality very well. He didn’t even give the other side a face anymore, but explained it in a pleasant way:

“Elder XX, I know what your worries are, but I have also considered these! First of all, the other tribes and Shaladin you said do not support it. That is impossible. The empire would not think that our tribe would dare When attacking them, they would take it for granted that it would be impossible without his Shaladin’s approval, and there must be people like us in the empire, and they might help us when the time comes, as long as the war is provoked, Then they have to fight if they want to fight, and they have to fight if they don’t want to fight.

As for the second point, this is easier to handle. Our main purpose is revenge, but as for who has the hands and how to fight, we will decide when it is the coalition forces. Moreover, we will not be so stupid. , During the war, the strength of our tribe was completely consumed, so that there would be nothing terrible after the war. They condemned us in name at most, and there will be no actual situation, because we still have strength in our hands, so During the war, we must preserve a certain amount of strength!

Well, that’s all I have to say above. If you have no objections, then, from now on, we will start preparing for the war, but it’s all done in secret. It’s okay to delay the time, but just make sure that all preparations can be completed. ! ”

Although the caliph’s plan is very good, if it is the usual, then his plan can be realized, but he obviously does not know the relationship between Shaladin and Yuzan, otherwise he will definitely not risk the soldiers, so , His plan this time can be described as an empty basket, and in the end it may really be as worried as the elder…
