Chapter 53 Like dealing with Hatake Sakumo(1/2)
The heavy rain stops, and the clouds open to see the moon.
In silence, the body of the sacrifice ninja was handled, and everyone was silently waiting for Duanmu's order.
"Go into the border line and wait for the withdrawal of the Grass Country garrison."
If you forcefully practice the immortal mode after a long hand, you will have many hidden injuries on your body and need to rest.
There are only three days, and now two days have passed.
If the garrison troops of Grass Country retreated as Duanmu's request and set off on the day Duanmu issued the order, they would return to the garrison of Fire intact.
If they have any other ideas, they can only wish them good luck.
After half a day of trekking, the group of people arrived at the contact office of the Hachim located on the border of the Kingdom of Fire.
Duanmu immediately recruited the person in charge here and asked:
"How is the retreat of the garrison troops in the Grass Country?"
As early as three days ago, Duanmu issued a formal order scroll when he left the garrison camp.
The first part was given to the garrison camp, and they asked them to retreat immediately.
The second part is given to the secret department’s liaison office, asking them to handle the acceptance matters.
The third part was sent directly back to Konoha Village in the form of filing. The scroll explained that while Duanki was pursuing Orochimaru, the Kusino Country garrison troops were asked to retreat quickly.
The captain of the Anbu Liaison Office is also a ninja of the Sarutobi clan. At this time, he was submissive and could not say a whole word.
Duanmu had a premonition that something was wrong and shouted: "Say! What's the situation!"
The captain in charge looked up from time to time and glanced at Duanmu's expression, and finally said in a squeaky manner:
"The Minister of the Imperial Ministry said... said... you will definitely think clearly and will definitely take back your previous orders... He is waiting for you in the garrison camp..."
Duanmu was so angry that he laughed:
"Wait for me? What should I do? Wait for me to collect his body?"
After the silence, the captain in charge only heard the consultant sigh, but did not know how to answer. He could not disobey the orders of the young patriarch.
After hesitating for a while, Duanmu said, "Take all the people here and go with me to rescue the garrison troops of Caozhi Country."
The captain in charge hurriedly retreated and went to order the staff of a squadron here.
Duanmu rubbed his face, and his expression just now must have been particularly cold.
Duanmu once again remembered the prophecy made by the San Daimu on him: If you kill Danzang, you will eventually become Danzang...
After walking out of the contact office, he saw the person at the root resting in the woods outside the contact office.
Hong and his hands were snuggled together for a long time, and his hands were still holding Ari's mask.
Duanmu sighed and walked towards them.
"Shouji, you stay here for one thing: mobilize other liaison offices around and medical supplies and medical ninjas in the town. In a few days, this place will be filled with wounded people."
"Genjian, take the Second Team with me. We are going to rescue as many Ninjas as possible in the garrison troops of the Grass Country."
Duanmu had to go to Caozhi Country again. At the same time, a blood-covered intelligence officer rushed into the Caozhi Country's garrison camp.
"Sir, the enemy wearing a black-bottomed red cloud robe attacked in the direction of our camp again!"
The only person in this intelligence team escaped.
The Caozhi Kingdom garrison troops, which had been delayed for two days, were finally panicked at this moment.
The first time I encountered an attack from the Akatsuki organization was because of the internal strife of the enemy, I escaped by chance.
This time, Duanmu Baiyun consultant has gone to pursue the rebel ninja Orochimaru. Now there are only five brigades of the Anbu in the camp.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the Ancient Minister Xing.
The Minister of the Ancient Ministry was slow for a while and said, "Send troops to find consultant Duanmu Baiyun first, explain to him the reason why we defend the camp to the death, and argue to him that his orders were wrong!"
The identity of the Minister of Anbu is not a secret in the Uenin who attended the meeting, and no one pays attention to the real command of Sarutobi and Kiri, the camp.
"Slow down!"
The ninja was about to leave the command center, but saw Sarutobi and Chu stand up.
At this time, Sarutobi and Ku's firm attitude shocked the Uenin in the command center.
Sarutobi and Chu also wanted to open up. Judging from the strength of the attack camp of Akatsuki's organization last time, he did not think that if the five additional gangs of the Ancient Army would have any essential changes.
It’s nothing more than the difference between persisting for half an hour and persisting for one hour. In the end, they are all destroyed here.
Others don’t know that he knows the strength of the young clan leader, and he is very strong, but there is a qualitative difference between the clan leader Li and Duanmu consultant.
"All the Shangnin and the special Shangnin will be commanded by me from now on!"
"The army of four hundred people, plus one hundred and fifty people at the root, has a total of five hundred and fifty ninjas."
"Three hundred ninjas cut off their rear, and two hundred and fifty ninjas retreated to the Kingdom of Fire according to the orders of Duanmu Consultant."
"The retreating ninjas are mainly young ninjas, and I will stay and cut off the rear."
Sarutobi and Chu looked at the direction of Konoha and said:
"At least, the lives of 250 ninjas can be preserved for Konoha. After Duanmu Baiyun consultant chased Orochimaru, he must be on the way to arrive. These 250 ninjas will definitely be able to escape."
Sarutobi and Kiku's tired but resolute face at this time made everyone in the command center know that he was the commander here.
Although the Minister of Anbu is also a senior member of Konoha, his identity and responsibilities are not suitable for interfering with a garrison commander. He can only wait for the young ninjas to go out before negotiating with Sarutobi and Kiku, trying to change Sarutobi and Kiku's attitude.
Waiting for the gang to take the order and leave, Sarutobi and Chu looked forward dumbly, but their voice was said to Minister Anbu:
"Cousin, I will stay and cut off the rear. You can run away!"
Regarding this matter, Xing, the Minister of the Uncharted Ministry, refused to comment, but just asked: "Danmu Baiyun has not appeared yet?"
Sarutobi and Kiki return: "Intelligence Ninja did not discover Duanmu Consultant."
The Minister of the Ancient Ministry gasped and said, "How dare Duanmu Baiyun give up the garrison troops of Caozhi Country!
Yuri Hong and Mishoushi Hongdou are his friends, and Shikuno is also his friends!
How dare he abandon Konoha’s five hundred people for personal love to die!”
Sarutobi and Chu said with unconscious eyes: "Consultant Duanmu said two days ago, retreat immediately. If we had retreated at that time, we would probably have camped in the country of Fire... More than 500 people were camping, and none of them were missing..."
Minister Anbu lifted his mask and revealed a face with a dense beard like Sandaime.
But at this moment his face was full of ferociousness:
"No! Two hundred and fifty people cannot be retreated! We must swear to defend this camp to the death!
Duanmu Baiyun is very treacherous, and now all civilian ninjas are influenced by him.
On the other hand, after our Sarutobi tribe, Hinata tribe and Nara tribe declined, the Nin tribe also complained about us a lot.
This camp is our counter-attack, and we must never give up!
Listen to me, and the tree! Two hundred and fifty people pretend to retreat and sneak around the Akatsuki organization to attack them! We can definitely win!"
Sarutobi and Chu just thought he was joking: "It's impossible to win, young patriarch. You have never seen the strength of the Akatsuki organization..."
Minister Anbu stood up, his eyes full of flames: "I've seen it! I know how strong my father is! I know how strong Orochimaru is! I also know how strong the organization can make Orochimaru a thug!"
Sarutobi and Chu looked at the crazy Minister of the Anbu in surprise:
"Then what are you doing? Let all five hundred people die?"
The Minister of the Ancient Ministry said with a grin:
"If 250 people escape successfully, it can only prove that Duanmu Baiyun is right. Konoha really cannot defend this camp now, and there is indeed no qualitative difference between 300 people and 500 people.
But, have you ever thought about it?
If more than 500 people were sold here, and if all five Anbu brigades were sold here, do you know what the result would be?"
It has been a long time since Sarutobi and Shu had seen his cousin's appearance. His cousin had become the Minister of Anbu early, and also became a code name and a mask early. At this time, when he was looking at his cousin's face, he felt that this person was a little strange.
"What will happen? What will happen if you deliberately let more than 500 people die?"
The Minister of the Ancient Ministry said frantically:
"Five hundred and fifty ninjas will die! You will die! I will die! But!
But Duanmu Baiyun will become the next Hashigi Shuomo!
As long as it is operated properly, as long as the villagers know that he caused the death of more than 500 ninjas, because Konoha lost the grass country garrison camp, he would be drowned by the spit of Konoha villagers!
Before coming here, I had already deduced several results and made several plans. The current situation is just right for the re-enactment of the Hashiki Sakuro incident.
As long as Duanmu Baiyun is not ready to defect, he can only choose the same ending as Hashiki Shuomo."
Sarutobi and Kiki widened their eyes because they were puzzled:
"Are you crazy?"
The Minister of the Ancient Ministry calmed down at this time and said calmly:
“No, I’m not crazy.
To be continued...
