Chapter 205 Tsunade: Do You Want to Attack the Sand Village?
Of course, the problems of materials and manpower that the Third Kazekage should have been a headache for also need to be taken over by Chiyo.
The war must be fought, but the village's missions and commissions must also be maintained.
These money-making jobs cannot be put down because of the war.
The Sand Village will not do that, and Konoha will not do that either. You must know that the money earned from mission commissions accounts for a large part of the village's income.
It's true that I'm not dazzled.
It's true.
Compared to the Third Kazekage who was furious, the Third Hokage felt like he was dreaming.
He was still having a headache about the war, but a victory report was delivered to the village. After carefully reading the scroll on the desk, the Third Hokage was a little dazed.
"Orochimaru did a good job."
"Shizuoichi is the key!!!"
Tsunade said unhappily:
"Old man, I don't care about what happened last time. If someone suppresses Shizuoichi's merit and reputation this time, don't blame me for turning against you!!"
"Ahem!!!"
The Third Kazekage, who was sprayed in the face by Tsunade, explained awkwardly: "Tsunade, I didn't do such a thing."
"Whether it was or not, you know it yourself. The daimyo's mansion has also received the news. The daimyo is very happy. I believe that rewards and envoys will come to the village soon. I hope you can be more rational."
Tsunade didn't listen to the Third Hokage's explanation.
What have you done? Don't you know it in your heart?
Just because you didn't stand out last time doesn't mean you can keep doing this.
If it happens again, she, Tsunade, will be a non-human.
"Of course, I won't forcibly erase anyone's merits." The Third Hokage smiled with a forced smile.
It's a good thing that the village won the battle, but he really doesn't want Shizuoichi to get too many rewards and benefits.
Unfortunately, it was suppressed last time, but not this time.
Otherwise, Tsunade will be unhappy, and the daimyo will also be unhappy.
"Ah~~~~"
Never mind, never mind.
At this time, the Third Hokage can only retreat. If he suppresses Shizuichi's merits and reputation again, not to mention how the subsequent war will be fought, the village will be in turmoil first.
And there is the risk of offending the daimyo, it's not worth it.
"Stop sighing."
Tsunade, with her hands folded in front of her chest and her legs crossed, said: "Now the enemy has been driven into the territory of the Wind Country, and the full-scale war will turn into a local war. Many ninjas on the front line can be transferred back to the village to concentrate on dealing with the accumulated tasks and commissions. You should be happy."
"Next, it depends on the foundation of the two villages to see who can consume more energy."
Local wars do not require so many troops, so it is certain that a group of people will be transferred back. It just so happens that there are many tasks and commissions accumulated in the village.
It just happens that the ninjas who are transferred back can be used to execute these tasks and commissions.
In fact, Konoha has the ability to draw more ninjas to perform these tasks.
But the Third Hokage cannot do this, and even Tsunade is unwilling to do so.
Because most of these ninjas drawn out are family ninjas, and the accumulated task commissions are to be left to the civilian ninjas with poor foundations and large numbers.
In other words, this is the cake of civilian ninjas.
Family ninjas cannot be allowed to gnaw.
Otherwise, the lives of a large number of civilian ninjas will be more difficult.
Compared with family ninjas who have a family backing and more ways to make money, civilian ninjas need more care from the village.
"Tsunade, do you think the same attack can be carried out a second time?"
Tsunade considered other things for the village, but the Third Hokage had the idea of making persistent efforts.
Since the attack was so effective, why not do it again?
"What do you mean?" Tsunade frowned directly.
"Old man, I warn you, don't try to attack Jingyi. Haven't you suffered enough in the past?"
"Because of your dishonesty and greed, Jingyi has a very bad impression of you old guys. Even so, you still want to attack the puppets?"
"No, that's not what I mean."
Seeing Tsunade's hair, the Third Hokage hurriedly explained:
"Tsunade, the village has suffered a lot in this war, and the manpower and material resources consumed are a terrible number. Why don't we take this opportunity to win the war in one fell swoop?"
Tsunade understood now.
"Do you want Jingyi to continue to use puppets to attack the camp of Sand Village?"
"No, if you want to win this war, it's not enough to just attack the camp. Besides, after suffering a loss, Sand Village will definitely be on guard. Do you want to attack Sand Village?"
Competing in background?
Consuming family assets?
No, no, no, this is the final bottom line. The safest way is to attack.
Force the enemy to choose to surrender.
At this time, the people of Sand Village were unstable and their morale was low. If the village suffered the same attack and suffered huge losses, Sand Village might not be able to continue the war.
This plan seems feasible.
Tsunade thought about it and said uncertainly:
"I don't know how many puppets Jingyi has in his hands, and whether he can launch a surprise attack that will deal a fatal blow to Sand Village. I need to ask first."
"Tell him that as long as he can do it, I, including the top leaders, will never have any ideas about his things in the future. The village will make up for the puppet materials he consumed, and double the compensation!!!"
Give a promise and double the materials in exchange for the end of the war.
Is this a good deal?
It is undoubtedly a good deal.
After all, Jingyi's attitude is here. The puppet cannot be handed over to others. Since he can't get it, why not give a promise to keep everyone safe?
With the promise, you can rest assured, and so can I.
As for the lost puppets, the village will compensate.
Although local wars do not cause as much loss as full-scale wars, local wars often take longer. The Third Hokage does not want to continue to fight the Sand Village endlessly.
Because this war has lasted for more than two years, the lives of the villagers in the village have been greatly affected, and more and more people have complaints.
These are factors that will affect the rule of the Third Hokage.
So he urgently wants to put an end to the war.
"Old man, I can't give you a promise, but I will ask Jingyi."
In the end, Tsunade did not give the Third Hokage a guarantee because she did not want to force Jingyi with her own position.
Otherwise, the relationship between the two will end sooner or later.
"It's always right to try."
The Third Hokage was a little disappointed. He thought Tsunade would agree and help persuade Jingyi.
Unfortunately, Tsunade did not.
Just help to ask, as for the result, it depends on Jingyi himself.
"Hokage-sama!!"
Just as the discussion between the master and the apprentice ended, the ninja from the Intelligence Department rushed in with a scroll in his hand.
"What happened?"
The Third Hokage's face darkened.
The ninja from the Intelligence Department was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Hokage-sama, Tsunade-sama, this is the latest information received by the Intelligence Department, sent from the border camp."
"Let me see."
Tsunade stood up and took the scroll. Seeing this, the Third Hokage had to wait patiently.
At the same time, he secretly prayed in his heart that there would be no bad news.
There are enough bad things in the village.
