Volume 1, Chapter 365: Let's turn the page? Sorry, I can't turn it over.
If the people are dispersed, shooting here and there and digging holes there, it will be an advantage for Konoha.
It even caused the war to become like the Second Ninja World War, with Konoha gradually losing a large number of troops in the Land of Fire.
Even though those who died caused considerable losses to the Fire Nation.
"Ye Cang, you lead a patrol team and start patrolling the surrounding area and setting traps. Don't let the people of Konoha get intelligence."
"snort!!"
What Luo Sha did was to squeeze himself out.
Even though Ye Cang was dissatisfied with this, he had no way to resist.
After all, Luo Sha is the leader of the vanguard army, and she can only obey orders.
Like Konoha, the Sand Village is not a monolithic entity. As the Third Kazekage gets older, the competition for the Kazekage candidate becomes more intense.
Luo Sha and Ye Cang are strong competitors.
In addition, the two have not gotten along since childhood, and as they grow older, the competition becomes more intense.
The competition has changed from competition at the level of strength to competition for rights.
Konoha.
The Third Hokage, who had just been at peace for a few days, lost his composure again. Due to excessive nervousness, he stood up too quickly and hit his head directly on the table.
There was a loud bang, and the documents on the table scattered all over the floor.
But the Third Hokage didn't pay attention to these things. He tightly grasped the scroll in his hand, and his expression changed again and again.
The Sand Village declared war on Konoha!!
The border outpost has been attacked, and no follow-up news has been received. It seems that the border outpost has been destroyed.
Most of the ninjas stationed there have already gone to the Pure Land to play chess with the Sage of Six Paths.
"Go and notify the elders to come to the meeting immediately, and the Hokage to assist them. Oh, and the head of the logistics department, Tsunade!!"
"No, without the Hokage's assistance, there will only be the Elders and Tsunade!!"
Although there are many people in the Elders' Council, those who are qualified to participate in important meetings are generally the Elders' Council representatives, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En.
The Third Hokage was so anxious that he even called for the Hokage to assist him.
It's a pity that the Hokage's assistant had already been taken down and was now sitting idle at home enjoying his retirement.
The Sand Village declared war on Konoha, which was a huge earthquake for Konoha, even more surprising than the Mist Village declaring war on Konoha.
The Anbu members acted as quickly as possible and went to notify the elders and Tsunade.
Those who received the notice also dropped what they were doing and rushed over.
Tsunade is still the fastest one, although Utane Koharu and Mitokado En are also strong and fast.
But they are old and cannot compare with Tsunade.
"Old man, don't look for me if you have nothing to do. There are so many things in the logistics department waiting for me to deal with."
Tsunade complained as she walked into the Hokage's office.
Because of the defeat on the front line, there were a lot of things to deal with in the village and Tsunade was very busy.
At this time, the Third Hokage sent someone to find her again. Given Tsunade's personality, it was normal for her to not be able to help but complain.
"The Sand Village has declared war on us."
In response to Tsunade's complaint, the Third Hokage looked up and said something.
As soon as these words were spoken, Tsunade's expression became serious. She walked to her seat and sat down, folding her hands over her chest, frowning and thinking.
"The Sand Village has declared war on us."
When Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En arrived, the Third Hokage dropped the bomb without any further ado.
The two were stunned for a moment, then quickly sat in their seats and asked, "What's the situation?"
"Is the Third Kazekage crazy? The war between Konoha and the Sand Village has only been over for three years. How dare he?"
The fight has come to my doorstep, what is there to be afraid of?
Tsunade pouted.
Considering that now is not the time to argue, I am too lazy to argue with Utane Koharu who speaks without thinking.
Instead of spending your energy on complaining and cursing, you’d better think about how to deal with the coming battle.
Tsunade herself was still depressed. A few days ago, she reminded the Third Hokage to be careful of the Sand Village. But now, the Sand Village declared war on Konoha.
"Right now, we are not discussing why the Third Kazekage dared to declare war on Konoha. What we need to focus on is how to resist the attack of the Sand Village."
Holding a pipe in his mouth, the irritable Third Hokage couldn't help but light up and take a few puffs:
"The war with the Mist Village has involved too much of the village's experience. That's why the Sand Village dared to declare war on us."
The Third Hokage felt even more headache when he thought about the war with the Mist Village, which seemed difficult to end in a short period of time.
"We must send a large army to stop it. Once the war spreads to the Fire Nation, it will be very troublesome."
Everyone was still frightened by the horrors of the Second Ninja World War, and given the daimyo's specific instructions, no one dared to joke about such things.
Otherwise, the daimyo will be angered and won't give money or supplies. How can Konoha go to war with its head held high?
Konoha can only be self-sufficient in peacetime. During war, without the support of the Daimyo Prefecture, it is impossible to sustain the war.
Now there is still a problem, who will resist the attack of Sand Village.
Konoha didn't dare to say that it could send thousands of ninjas to participate in the war at will, but it could always pick and choose a suitable ninja army, and at most it would be a matter of stronger or weaker combat power.
The army is not a problem; what about commanding the high-end combat forces to participate in the war?
Orochimaru and Jiraiya are on the eastern front, and the war with the Mist Village cannot be fought without them. Don't expect to transfer these two people back to lead the troops to fight against the Sand Village.
The Third Hokage looked at Tsunade subconsciously, and Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En also looked over.
Obviously, they thought Tsunade was the most suitable candidate.
"what?"
Tsunade was stunned for a moment and said speechlessly:
"You don't expect me to go to the front and command the battle, do you?"
Tsunade definitely has the ability, but she can't leave.
She was afraid that if she left, the village would fall into chaos again, and she was afraid that the old man Danzo would sell the village out of hand.
By that time, I will be on the front line and won't be able to take care of things in the rear. It will be troublesome if I can't please both sides.
"Don't count on me. I can't leave. The Logistics Department has too many things to do, and I can't leave. God knows if the Logistics Department will be sold after I leave. Besides, it's an emergency period, so I suggest that the Ministry of Finance be transferred over as well, and I will be in charge of it at the same time."
Not only did Tsunade directly refuse to go into battle, she also wanted to bring the Ministry of Finance under her control.
Everyone knew why Tsunade did this and who she was guarding against.
Utane Koharu and Mitokado En looked a little embarrassed and cursed Danzo in their hearts.
The Third Hokage was stunned for a few seconds, then smiled bitterly:
"Tsunade, you're needed on the front lines."
"I'm needed more in the rear."
Tsunade was unmoved. After the Third Hokage tolerated Danzo time and time again, Tsunade understood everything.
I can't rely on him, I can only keep an eye on it myself.
She dared to believe that as long as she left, there would definitely be problems in the Logistics Department and the Finance Department.
"There's no way I'm leaving."
Shaking her head stubbornly, Tsunade refused to listen to the Third Hokage's chicken soup for the soul and gave her own suggestion.
"There are people in the village who can command the battle, but you guys just scare people with the disgusting things you do on a daily basis."
What a mess to turn over?
This is impossible. Since you have done something bad, you should be prepared to be held accountable at any time. Tsunade ignored the ugly faces of the Third Hokage and others, spread her hands and said:
“Is it difficult?
Let Senior Hatake Sakumo go and transfer that kid Chizuki back from the east. I don’t believe the Sand Village can turn the world upside down!!!”
"But can you bear it?"
"Are you so embarrassed to ask?"
"Is Sakumo willing?"
The Third Hokage was a little hesitant as Hatake Sakumo's reputation had just been ruined not long ago, and he even submitted his application to retire regardless of the consequences.
During this period, the Third Hokage tried to persuade him several times, but Hatake Sakumo remained unmoved and was determined to take a rest.
Go find him now.
Will he agree?
