Chapter 170 Planning for the Great War

Sarutobi Hiruzen's level lasted three months.

In the past three months, Sunagakure Village has not attacked again, but has stabilized the border.

But everyone knows that this is just the tranquility before the war.

Sunagakure Village should be researching ways to break Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique. Once they think of a solution, they will immediately launch an attack.

At this time, Konoha's vanguard troops and follow-up troops have arrived. It stands to reason that the opponent has not yet found a way to deal with Minato, so it is a good time to take the initiative to attack.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen sent a letter stating that Konoha cannot take the initiative to enter the Kingdom of Wind and cannot bear the responsibility of invading other countries.

No child would believe such nonsense, but Jiraiya was also a pacifist, so he actually agreed.

As a result, the Konoha army and the Sand Hidden Village troops came to a stalemate at the junction of the Kawa Country and the Wind Country.

The results of Danzo's investigation have also come out.

"Not all towns have formed militia units. After investigation, I found that a total of 27 towns have formed militia units!" Danzo sent the survey results to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "The number of militiamen in these towns ranges from one to two thousand. , as many as seven or eight thousand, generally equipped with wooden armor, leather armor, rattan armor, and some are also equipped with iron armor. The weapons they use are mostly bows and arrows, as well as spears, machetes, kitchen knives, hoes and the like."

We can't station a ninja in every city just to fight against wandering ninjas.

But these forces need to be limited and regulated.

If there are more ninjas stationed there, there will be fewer ninjas available in the village, which is also a problem.

After all, without the militia, who would fight against the wandering ninjas?

"Yes!" Anbu nodded and left.

This version of the Akatsuki organization has been strengthened too much, and the roots that have not been updated are naturally not enough.

Border cities are indeed areas with a high incidence of wandering ninjas. They commit crimes in the Land of Fire and then hide directly in neighboring countries.

Sarutobi Hiruzen touched his chin, so this is it!

He didn't know if he didn't mark it, but he discovered it as soon as he marked it.

"Yes!" Danzo nodded: "These cities are mainly located in the northern part of the Land of Fire, the border area of ​​the Land of Sichuan and the Land of Rain. After investigation, I found that the first city to form a militia was this Red Flower Town."

In addition, these militiamen are not allowed to practice chakra extraction methods, their annual training must not exceed two months, and they are not allowed to wear iron armor.

Danzo glanced briefly, then nodded: "Okay!"

"What do you mean?" Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned and asked.

"Fifty thousand?" Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked by this number and asked curiously: "How did they expand and why did they expand so fast?"

"How is this possible!" Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up in shock: "That's 50,000 people. How can a mere Akatsuki organization afford it? We in Konoha don't even dare to do that!"

"Ninja subsidy?" Sarutobi Hiruzen was dumbfounded: "Everyone gets it?"

"Take care of food and pay wages!" Danzo said.

It would be a good idea if each town could form a militia to protect itself.

Every month, Konoha will send ninjas to patrol these 27 towns to help control the problem of wandering ninjas. The expenses incurred during this period will be borne by these 27 towns.

"Can't afford it?" Danzo asked.

There is no one versus four in Konoha now, no treaty has been made, and it is not convenient for ninjas to go to neighboring countries to perform missions. Facing these wandering ninjas, although they are not helpless, the procedures are really troublesome.

"So many?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the summary data. The total number of these militiamen was nearly 20!

"Don't worry, just look at the map!" Danzo said.

Form a militia?

Sarutobi Hiruzen wrote down more than a dozen precautions, sorted out the wording, and then handed it to Danzo: "Look, is it feasible to deal with the militia in this way?"

Anyway, we don’t live by these things at all.

"In short, the core members of the Akatsuki organization are provided with one meal a day. In addition, the Akatsuki organization pays wages to each core member." Looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's confused look, Danzo had to add: " It’s a ninja subsidy!”

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo: "Tell me, is there anything else?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and marked these towns on the map one by one.

But no matter what, today is the border, and tomorrow it will be the inland's turn. The day after tomorrow, the village next to Konoha may have to form a militia force.

"Yes!" Danzo nodded.

He was willing to do good things just for political exchange with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Because the Kingdom of Rain is less than 20 miles away from Honghua Town, and there are often scattered ninjas from the Kingdom of Rain who often come to Honghua Town to rob. It happens that there are continuous bamboo forests near Honghua Town, so the residents of Honghua Town He made bows and arrows out of bamboo to protect himself, and the effect was very good. So other towns suffering from wandering ninjas followed suit and formed militia units."

So the border militia was actually forced out by the homeless ninja problem?

"Are they all border cities?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

After all, wandering ninjas can communicate with each other. If there are fewer of you stationed, they may gather together and kill this ninja.

you can!

Although the militia might affect the ninja's income, Danzo didn't really care.

However, if this is the case, it would be hard for Hiruzen Sarutobi to write to the Daimyo to disband these troops.

"The Akatsuki organization has grown to nearly 50,000 people, and has occupied nearly one-fifth of the towns in the Land of Rain!" Danzo said: "I have also convinced Hanzo, so I have to take the roots out, but The opponent is powerful after all, so I still need your help!"

I help you, should you help me too?

Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned the ANBU ninja: "Send this to Kyoto, give it to the daimyo, and come back when you get a reply!"

For example, there are currently a total of 27 towns with militia, so that’s it. Don’t add any more.

"Ah this." Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, then sat down again.

For 3 people, a monthly subsidy of 15 taels is only billion per month.

In fact, you won't be able to give out that many. This must be based on your strength.

Fifty thousand jounin, thirty thousand chunin, ten thousand genin, and five thousand for ordinary people is about the same.

The number of ninjas is far less than that, and there are more ordinary people.

On average, one person can earn less than 6,000 yuan.

Fifty thousand people, that’s 3 million taels. The Akatsuki organization occupied one-fifth of the towns in the Kingdom of Rain and spent 3 million taels of money every month.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is calculated according to Konoha's standards.

Konoha also provides subsidies to ninjas, but not all ninjas, but the civilian members working in the Hokage's office building, the medical ninjas at Konoha Hospital, the ninjas in the Intelligence Department, and all other ninjas working in Konoha.

They couldn't go out to perform tasks, and it was inconvenient to record office work or medical treatment as tasks, so they might as well change their wages to ninja subsidies.

In total, the total number of ninjas receiving subsidies in Konoha is less than 2000, and they have to spend 2000 billion ryo every month.

After all, Konoha is a big country, not as shabby as the Akatsuki organization, and the standard for each person is 10 taels.

If the scope of this subsidy is expanded to all ninjas, the monthly expenditure will be 100 billion taels.

In fact, it doesn't take that much. After all, Konoha has fewer jounin and more genin. Maybe two to three billion per month is enough.

The Fire Nation's subsidy to Konoha is 500 billion taels per year, an average of 41 billion taels per month. If subsidies are given to all ninjas, the funds will be more than enough.

However, Konoha just couldn't afford the money.

why?

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo looked at each other and ignored this question in tacit agreement.

"The Akatsuki organization is indeed evil. They actually give money to ninjas. This is corroding the will of the ninjas!!" Sarutobi Hiruzen knocked on the table and confirmed the Akatsuki organization.

This kind of organization must be eliminated. Otherwise, what if when the news about the Akatsuki organization comes out, everyone will stop talking about the selfless dedication of the Will of Fire and come to me for salary?

Danzo also nodded. When he didn't understand the Akatsuki organization, he was really subconsciously vigilant. After understanding it, the Akatsuki organization became his life and death enemy.

"How many people do you need?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

"At least thirty jounin!" Danzo said immediately: "I have less than ten jounin at my base, and the Akatsuki organization has at least three thousand ninjas that can fight. This is no less than a war. Although the middle and low-level ninjas are Yu Yu Hidden Village will bear the responsibility, but we still have to provide the high-level combat power!"

"Thirty people, I promise to take down the Akatsuki organization!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Thirty people are not enough, I will give you sixty!"

"Sixty?" Danzo was stunned for a moment, then immediately started counting.

There are a total of 150 jounin in Konoha, including 16 ANBU, 120 jounin classes, and 14 people distributed in other departments.

The jounin here refers to jounin, especially jounin is not considered jounin.

In the war with Sunagakure Village, Sarutobi Hiruzen mobilized 80 Jonin to participate in the war, plus 30 people from ANBU and other departments, the total was 110!

There are only 40 jounin left at best. Where did 60 people come from?

What a ruthless Sarutobi Hiruzen!

Our foundation has so much funding every year, and I have been recruiting geniuses everywhere. It has only taken so many years to train 16 jounin. You are so quiet, and you just take out 60 of them?

How much have you been greedy for?

Could it be that you lied to me about the amount of funds that the Fire Nation provides to Konoha every year?

Danzo cursed in his heart, but there was no trace of anger on his face.

You should be angry when you should be angry, but now is not the time to be angry.

Take down these sixty people first, and then stamp them one by one to eliminate the evil tongue.

What? You ask me if I dare?

With 78 jounin in hand, do you think I dare?

"By the way, although these sixty jounin are entrusted to you, they only help you fight and are not responsible for other matters!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"Of course!" Danzo nodded, as long as it's in my hands, it's not up to you!

"That's why I have to send Shinnosuke to lead this army!"

"What?" Danzo's eyes suddenly widened: "You don't trust me?"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke is not strong, that is compared to the Sannin and Konoha White Fang. In fact, his combat strength is also the first echelon under the Hokage, Sannin, and Konoha White Fang, the elite jounin level.

Although it's not easy to fight Danzo, Danzo can't control him.

With him as a channeler, the sixty jounin would not be able to think about it.

"Of course I trust you!" Hiruzen Sarutobi said softly: "After all, we have been partners for more than ten years, but these sixty people are all members of my Sarutobi clan. Of course, it is better for them to be led by ninjas from my Sarutobi clan. You What do you think?"

"You Sarutobi Hiruzen, you actually took the funds given to you by the daimyo and spent them on your family?" Danzo's eyes suddenly widened.

Damn it, I thought I was shameless enough by withholding funds to develop the roots, but the roots are still the roots of the village.

You actually used it directly to develop your own family?

So despicable, so shameless!

Why didn’t I think of that!

Yes, no matter how easy it is to use the root, can it be as easy to use as the Shimura clan?

No, I will do the same thing when I come back from the Land of Rain.

Wait, since he is a member of the Sarutobi tribe, why is he willing to go to the battlefield?

Danzo rolled his eyes and immediately figured it out.

Yes, the leaders of the Akatsuki organization are all underage children. No matter how talented they are, they are still elite jounin.

The number of Akatsuki's 3,000 ninjas and 50,000 members is real.

So the credit for suppressing the Akatsuki organization is equivalent to destroying the country!

This is a great achievement!

If you just look at the numbers, the Akatsuki organization does have the size of a big country, but it doesn't have the strength of a big country!

It is like a balloon that is strong on the outside and dry on the inside. It will pop when you poke it with a needle.

This is equivalent to this achievement of destroying the country, but it was for nothing!

Who wouldn’t want the merit of destroying a country for nothing?

Not only is the merit of destroying the country for nothing, but also the merit of uniting the Rain Country and turning a country that was originally an opponent into a friend is also a great achievement!

Combining the two skills into one, Danzo could not even imagine how much prestige this would bring!

As long as Sarutobi Shinnosuke is involved, isn't that enough to run for Hokage?

"Well, you Sarutobi Hiruzen, that's the original idea!" Danzo, who wanted to understand everything, suddenly became very angry. I obviously discovered the opportunity, so you want to step in?

No, this Sarutobi Shinnosuke cannot take the lion's share of the credit.

However, I only have 16 jounin in hand, and I can’t catch the 60 jounin on the opposite side even if I go all out!

"It seems we need to get some support from the family!" Danzo thought.

The Sarutobi clan can easily bring out 60 jonin, but the Shimura clan may have to break their muscles and bones if they can bring out 40 jonin.

But it doesn't matter. The casualties in this battle will definitely not be huge. On the contrary, the rewards after victory will be huge, and convincing the family will not be a problem.

Just do it!

Danzo, who had thought everything through, nodded sharply: "Okay, I'll do as you say!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, wondering what Danzo was thinking about.

But I thought that with the sixty jounin in hand, as long as they were isolated and set up camp separately from the root ninja, nothing would happen.

Well, to be conservative, let's send another twenty jounin, disguised as chuunin, to follow, so that even if Danzo wants to cause trouble, I will have a back-up!

At this point, a big battle was settled quite casually between the two of them before they even finished smoking a pack of cigarettes.
