Red Dust

"That's what you planned to do..."

I love Luo heaved a sigh of relief,

"But this matter, there must be a result..."

Daimaru waved his hand:

"What's so difficult about this? Since the daimyo wants to maintain his position and keep his reputation, just give it to him. Our Sandyin Village doesn't even mind giving benefits, such as..."

Speaking of which, Daimaru, who showed a narrow smile, rubbed his hands and said frivolously:

"Why don't you bow your head to the big name on behalf of Sha Ren, and even be willing to accept officials such as 'General Zhengyi', 'Regent Minister'..."

The so-called daimyo is actually the same thing. Maybe they have special significance in the field of status and mysticism, but to implement them, they still need real power.

Ninjas aren't samurai, but they don't mind using their methods.

Taking 'Fengying' as the core, the establishment of the shogunate and the country of the wind does not violate the tradition of one village and one country in principle, but the core of the country's operation has undergone great changes.

In a previous life, I had seen Daimaru, who did not know many political models, and there were still many systems that could be learned from in his mind.

The samurai in the ninja world have long been eliminated. Ninjas are actually another kind of mercenaries whose status is far inferior. It is not impossible to not seek social status. The practical benefits in private have been able to satisfy the appetite, and it is natural to live in harmony. Best of all, once the daimyo wants to get it right, the ninjas don't really mind showing their fangs.

Shimura Danzo can frighten the fire country daimyo, and so can Sand Shinobu.

Chapter 1031 Exchange

The time Daimaru acted as Kazekage was too short, and without waiting for the attention of the daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind, and without a single official meeting, Gaara made a comeback.

The "shadows" of the five major ninja villages are not easy to do, especially Fengying, who is under great external pressure, and has to be distracted to provide necessary support for the residents in the country.

Originally, manpower and material resources were stretched thin, and it was difficult to deal with all challenges comprehensively, and he had to be distracted by general affairs other than combat preparations. In the past dynasties, Fengying was known in the world for its military force. The village chiefs, such as Liedou and the second-generation monk, who are skilled in politics, intrigue and research on forbidden arts, have a better reputation.

Having been Fengying for so long, Gaara has long understood that his greatest responsibility is not to charge and fight bravely on the battlefield, but to support more compatriots.

This is very different from the focus of other Shinobi village leaders.

What is lacking, the more you need to work hard in certain areas. The living space of Sand Ninja is too small, and the harsh environment has almost locked all the room for maneuver. As the fifth generation of Fengying, you must not make mistakes and lead Sandyin Village to the wrong one. forward in the direction.

"Our ability to bear failure is too poor to hand over our fate to others, you are right..."

Daimaru's ridicule, Gaara didn't care about it. He also agrees with the method of lowering his posture, compromising himself, and only pursuing practical benefits, but the method is open to question.

"Have a good talk with the ambassadors of the daimyo, and see what their specific requirements are..."

Had to do so.

In fact, there are some things that Daimaru did not say clearly.

It was when Gaara was hesitating, and Daimaru said it nicely, that Sandyin Village is now in a dilemma. No matter what choice you choose, the pros and cons are hard to measure.

It is true that the name is subordinate to the daimyo, although it is possible to borrow the righteousness to implement the policy of Shayin Village, but this also has hidden dangers.

The so-called name is not right. Once there is a clear relationship between superiors and subordinates, even if the name of the country of wind is a puppet, the sand ninja can only offer it up and fight for power within the scope of traditional rules.

If you really bear the notoriety of rebelliousness, it will not be easy to wash away.

It is not uncommon for the son to kill the father and the disciple to kill the master, but all these things are not allowed by morality and law. Those who commit such evil deeds will definitely be difficult to convince the public, and they will be rejected by the mainstream values. People spurn it, and the end is not very good.

The power of Shayin Village is indeed stronger than that of Damyo, and it is not impossible to force him into submission by force, but he cannot resort to force for everything, otherwise the management cost will be terrifyingly high. The country has maintained military control and rule by force for too long.

Obviously he did a good deed and ended up messing up the entire country of wind. It was definitely not what Daimaru and Gaara intended, so they shouldn't be too reckless.

Joining the daimyo system and controlling the country of wind with a government similar to the shogunate will naturally be restrained by the original system.

After all, the Ninja Village is a mercenary organization. Playing aristocratic politics, it is not necessarily able to overwhelm the opponent. After all, that is the field that others are good at.

If you want to hijack the old bureaucrats of the Land of Winds and become the help of Sandyin Village, you must naturally make an agreement and abide by the rules, otherwise you will not be able to play.

In fact, there is a simple and effective method, which has survived countless years of testing, and that is marriage.

Unfortunately, with Gaara's arrogance, he may not be willing to accept such an arrangement. Kankuro's character, status and popularity are not a good candidate for marriage. Temari is so-so, but it is impossible, Daimaru disagrees.

Ninjas have strength, but they don't have the corresponding status. How to make up for the gap, Daimaru also has to think about it.

"In the system of one village, one country, tossing and turning, ruling the government, and using marriage to create a stable blood tie to maintain balance, it should be able to deal with the immediate troubles, but..."

After Gaara left, Daimaru stood high in the sky and looked at the fireworks in the world below.

"All the means of planning are to steal the legal principles governing the country of wind, which is a bit troublesome..."

Despite the fact that the official government represented by the daimyo is not strong in force and has low political ability, he is also a legitimate ruler. Daimaru has never underestimated them.

The so-called power is not just about being able to fight, what if all the civilians, even most of the sand ninjas, don't agree with the plan of the sand hidden village against the daimyo?

It’s not that Daimaru is unreasonable. In Shayin Village, only a few people realize that Shain and Daimyo have a fundamental conflict of interest. Most residents don’t care who Daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind is, but they also agree that Daimyo is the monarch of course, and Shayin Village belongs to In the Land of Wind, Sand Shinobi is naturally considered to be a daimyo's vassal.

Sha Ren did not listen to the command of the daimyo, and was appointed to Gaara because he had no direct jurisdiction, so he was not concerned with the imperial decree of the high-ranking emperor in ancient times, but he was very concerned about the orders of the magistrate of Sesame Xiaoguan County.

Kaze Ying is the boss of Sand Shinobi, not the boss of the Land of Wind. This view is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Even if this is not the case, the righteousness is so. The cost of forcibly reversing by force is too high, it is not cost-effective, and the probability of success is low.

Sure enough, in the next few days, the construction site outside was still busy, and there was still no progress in the negotiations between Shayin Village and Daimyo.

Of course, the key to this matter is not the negotiators, but what Gaara and Daimyo think specifically.

Interestingly, Daimaru and Gaara believed that there was a risk of a civil war, but from the information obtained from the investigation, it seems that the Daimyo side did not prepare for the war, including the Daimyo escort and the private armies of various noble families. Not only did they not call for reservists. , and even the necessary reserves such as ordnance and food are not planned to be purchased in advance.

And this made Daimaru happy.

Sandyin Village has overestimated the possible risks. I don't know if the daimyo really loves peace, or if he thinks he is not strong enough.

Since he didn't really want to meet the soldiers of Sandyin Village, he maintained an aggressive negotiating attitude, obviously he wanted something.

Although this conclusion may not be completely reliable, it also makes Gaara feel uneasy.

Later, after several rounds and rounds, the daimyo messenger cryptically expressed the real purpose of the trip.

"Rebuild Miyagi?"

When Daimaru got this information from Gaara, he was also a little surprised.

what is this?

Daimaru is ready to turn against Daimyo and start a limited war, but the other party just wants a new home.

In fact, no matter how barren the Land of Wind is and how miserable the people are, the living conditions of the daimyo and nobles are not bad.

Apart from the fact that the climatic conditions are difficult to change and it is not very livable, the status of the daimyo of the land of wind and the daimyo of the land of fire is actually not much different. It covers a vast area, a majestic capital, a splendid palace, and various extravagant furnishings. Everything you need.

Because of the rise of Awaji Village and the opening of the commercial road in Naruto Village, the life of the daimyo and the nobles has become more comfortable.

It's just that people's desires are like this, and there is no end to it.

In Sand Ninja's almost changed design, there is no place for a daimyo, and this is what they care about the most.

As for Shayin Village occupying too much land, the population in the future will far exceed the daimyo. They should have seen it, but they didn't think it would jeopardize their own life and death.

"Effective, but not fatal..."

Daimaru pondered for a while and then understood.

If the party did not underestimate the influence of the daimyo, then the other party may have slightly overestimated the deterrent power of the so-called Dayi to Sandyin Village.

The strong stance is not to force Sha Ren to submit, but he really feels that it is not too much to put forward this request because of his position as a big name.

Gaara nodded quietly:

"Those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear, what you said still makes sense. We Sand Ren really have no intention of subverting the daimyo, but this is not because of the so-called righteousness..."

"The model of one village and one country has been in operation for so many years. Not only are many ninjas willing to follow it, but even the daimyo and nobles are convinced, but they forgot..."

Daimaru chuckled lightly,

"Even if Chishou Hasuma and Uchiha Madara joined forces back then, not everyone was convinced, let alone now..."

Today's Five Great Ninja Villages are actually an independent military group, but their size is not enough to support their status, and their status is not enough to support them to take over administrative power outside the headquarters, such as Konoha Village, even if they actually control The Land of Waves, an important maritime transportation route, cannot be directly managed by his subordinates, otherwise there will be great trouble.

Sand Ninja was able to expand smoothly in the Land of Winds because most of the country's territory is worthless deserts, basically unclaimed land, and the possession of Sand Hidden Village will not have much impact.

For example, in this place on the Xuefeng Mountain on the plateau, I am afraid that the big name and the government were also laughing at the sand ninjas for being stupid, spending money to buy such a piece of sand, and happily sharing the money with the purchase price.

"Choose a good place and build a new city for Da Ming as the capital of the country. In the past, it was indeed a bit shabby. Let them issue a task, money or something. Forget it, just waive the loan for land purchase..."

Gaara also thought about it for a long time, and felt that this condition is not unacceptable. Problems that can be solved with money and manpower are trivial matters to Sand Ren.

"No, that's too snobbish..."

Daimaru shook his head, denying Gaara's idea,

"If you have such a good opportunity to sell your favor, you should make good use of it. What is the so-called loan? If you really don't care about the consequences, there are as many as you want. Only the invisible and intangible influence is what we need..."

"You mean..."

As soon as Gaara's heart moved, Daimaru shook his finger with a smile and said as a matter of course:

"Proposal to the daimyo to grant Kazeyage the title of 'Great Imperial Palace'..."

The so-called Great Imperial Palace is nominally the residence of the retired general, and is extended to the meaning of the former shogun, advisor, etc.

Basically, anyone who is described as the Great Imperial Palace is an absolute authority in a certain field, the Big Dipper of Mount Tai.

Of course, this can also refer to the shogun himself who holds the authority, the head of the Wu family, and the Taige, who is extremely civilized.

Shadow body is the leader of Shinobi Village, mastering the military equipment of a country, and it is not impossible to be called the Great Imperial Palace. If it is recognized, it is equivalent to the endorsement of Gaara by the name of the name, which has many benefits.

The key is that the former "military head" who retired in name, the Great Imperial Palace, has ambiguous executive power, unless the Daimyo personally orders a reprimand, and the Kazekage and the Great Imperial Palace, the Gai Luokai government, establishes the government and uses the power of domination. No one can make irresponsible remarks even under the leadership of the government in civil affairs, or even meddling in state authority.

Sha Ren is strong, and the authority of the Great Imperial Palace will naturally rise. If Sha Yin Village declines, even if it is involved in government affairs, I am afraid that no one will care.

In fact, ninjas have been secretly doing this kind of thing for a long time, but this time, Daimaru wants to establish this status quo as a less formal system.

Gaara, who had discussed many times with Daimaru, naturally understood the mystery, but...

"Is it really possible? You wanted me to be the shogun of the shogunate a few days ago, and now it's time to make arrangements?"

Daimaru replied:

"It doesn't really matter how the name is called, the key is to get the right and proper government, otherwise, except for the land directly under the jurisdiction of Shayin Village, even the influential local tyrants and businessmen will not buy Sha Ren's account, and many things will not be able to be done. now..."

With the official status of the tiger skin, even if he still looks down on him and has no position, all ninjas who look at money, want to fight, but also think about it.

Now that we have reached this stage, we can't tolerate Sand Shinobu's retreat. Daimaru took such a big risk and subdued Totoro Otsutsuki, plucked the moon from the sky, established the plateau snow peak, and improved the environment of the Land of Wind, not for the sake of it. Let others pick peaches.

"Strength is the foundation. Righteousness, fame, and influence are the means of getting twice the result with half the effort. Otherwise, if the virtues are not matched, there will be disasters, and there will be more troubles in the future!"
