Chapter 209 Pre-War Deployment
"What are you talking about? You look so happy. ׺°"˜˜`"°º×"
The one who came over was Sarutobi Asuma, who was also a member of the ninjas going on this expedition.
This ninja army is not only composed of the Uchiha clan. In addition to the Uchiha clan, there are two large clans, the Hyuga clan and the Sarutobi clan, as well as a large number of civilian ninjas.
The Hyuga clan is led by Hyuga Hiashi himself, and the Sarutobi clan also came with several veteran ninjas, which is undoubtedly to check and balance the Uchiha clan, so as not to monopolize the war merits by the Uchiha clan.
Asuma also followed the team. At this time, he had quietly slipped out of the Sarutobi clan's marching team and came to "surrender to the enemy" to the Uchiha clan's team.
Tonghuo smiled awkwardly and said, "Nothing."
"My brother said he would go to confess after the war." Tiehuo didn't remember and poked his brother out again.
"Ah? You also found a partner!" Asuma was shocked, and then made a look of heartache.
"Alas, it hasn't worked yet, but it should be possible in nine out of ten cases." Tonghuo waved his hand, seemingly modest, but in fact he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth.
"How come you're so fast, kid! Che is fine, he's handsome and strong, so it's natural that he can get Hong's favor. But your conditions are not as good as mine!" Asuma said and roared to the sky.
Asuma and Tonghuo had formed a deep friendship in the last war, but seeing Tonghuo find his ideal partner still made him feel sad.
It can be said that he was afraid of his brother's hard life and afraid of his brother driving a Land Rover.
"Hehe, I'm close to the water and get the moon first. I go to her parents' store every day to buy pancakes. Besides, how can love be measured by conditions?" Tonghuo laughed twice in a rather obscene way, and then said righteously.
After Tonghuo finished speaking, seeing Asuma's pitiful look, he kindly added, "How about I ask her to introduce you to some friends later?"
"Uchiha clan? Forget it, my father will definitely not agree, it's too troublesome. Besides, I don't really care about private matters between men and women. I want to seize the time to become stronger. I'd better start a career before starting a family." Although Asuma explained this way, there was still some stubbornness in it.
Che looked at Asuma and Tonghuo from the side and couldn't help but feel funny, "You two are so carefree. You can still relax before the war and talk about love."
"Anyway, the tall people will hold up the sky if it falls." Asuma shrugged.
Tonghuo even showed a flattering smile, "With big brother here, what are we afraid of?"
Che laughed, "Don't think that I can end the war alone. This war is a defensive war for us. Five hundred of us are scattered on the border for defense. Even I can't take care of it. You should rely on yourself."
Tiehuo said seriously: "I will protect the border."
Che patted Tiehuo on the shoulder, "Look, Tiehuo is still reliable."
Asuma and Tonghuo smiled awkwardly, and Tiehuo touched the back of his head and smiled honestly.
After three days of rapid march, they arrived at the northeastern border of the Fire Country.
Originally, the daily garrison of the northeastern border of the Fire Country was maintained by patrol missions assigned by the village.
But these patrolling ninja teams obviously can no longer adapt to the increasingly frequent intrusions of the Cloud Hidden Ninja, so Konoha has issued an order to cancel the mission.
These ninja teams have gathered in the camp at this time, ready to hand over the defense zone with the ninja troops led by Che.
The ninja team had no more than a hundred people, and the leader was a senior ninja. He handed over all the border intelligence to Che, and then led the ninja team back to Konoha.
After the change of guard and handover, Che led the senior ninjas in the army to choose the largest tent in the center of the camp as the headquarters and began pre-war deployment.
"According to intelligence, the invasion of the Land of Lightning this time is mainly a small-scale and frequent invasion, basically dominated by a four-person ninja team."
"Our troops are not sufficient."
Sitting in the first seat, Che already had the posture of a leader, and his blue eyes surveyed everyone.
At this time, all the senior ninjas sitting in the tent were the decision-makers of this army.
In addition to Che, Tonghuo and Tiehuo also got the title of senior ninja because of the blessing of the three-magatama Sharingan, and there was also the Uchiha Eighth Generation, which was a senior senior ninja.
The Hyuga clan is second only to the Uchiha clan. In addition to the two clan leaders, Hiashi and Hizashi, there is also a clan elder.
There are two people in the Sarutobi clan, one is Asuma Sarutobi who was promoted to Jonin after the war, and the other is a veteran Jonin of the Sarutobi clan.
There is only one civilian Jonin, a total of ten Jonins.
"The northeastern border is too long, I think we should request reinforcements." The elder of the Hyuga clan said, his brows were furrowed, and he obviously felt that this defense mission was too difficult.
But his proposal was jointly rejected by the Uchiha and Sarutobi clans.
The Uchiha Eighth Generation and the veteran Jonin of the Sarutobi family raised objections together.
The Uchiha Eighth Generation considered from the standpoint of the Uchiha. If he requested reinforcements as soon as he arrived at the border, wouldn't it make the Uchiha appear incompetent?
The Jonin of the Sarutobi family believed that the orders of the Third Hokage were everything, and it was not yet time to request reinforcements.
The elders of the Hyuga family had no choice but to give up. Che looked at the three people of the Hyuga family and suddenly said, "Chief Hiashi, how far can your Hyuga clan's Byakugan see?"
"The precise field of vision is only fifty meters, but if you pursue the limit, it is about ten kilometers."
Hyuga Hiashi spoke up. The precise vision he mentioned refers to the perspective vision that is enough for the soft fist to work, and if it is just to detect the enemy, the vision can be extended further.
"Ten kilometers, the total distance of the northeastern defense line is more than 500 kilometers, which requires at least 50 Hyuga clan ninjas. Is the number of people brought by the Hyuga clan enough this time?"
"Enough, there are 75 Hyuga clan ninjas in the army, and they are all elite." Hyuga Hiashi replied. Although he is much older than Che, Hiashi did not despise Che, but really regarded Che as the commander.
"Very good, then our defense method is determined. The enemy attacks with a squad, and we defend with a squad."
"Each squad must have at least one Hyuga clan ninja, and it is best to have a wind ninja to restrain the cloud."
"Next, let's assign the squad."
Che's deployment and command were swift and resolute, without any sense of awkwardness, which naturally benefited from his experience as a clan leader in his previous life.
Under Che's leadership, the specific deployment of the entire army was quickly determined.
