Aztec Eternals - Chapter 572
The clouds rolled, and the sea breeze in the east carried moist water vapor; the mountains were stacked, and the mountains and forests in the south were extraordinarily green and lush.
At this moment, the **** smell of Dandan diffused among the towering temples. Most of the rain **** priests who used to be high above turned into fallen corpses, and their souls went to the kingdom of gods in the clouds. In the ancient temple, the tall rain **** sat on the throne. With deep golden eyes, she silently stared at these heavily armored northern warriors, and the barbarians she had never seen before.
“More than 800 miles from north to south, more than 500 miles from east to west, the highlands in the east are dangerous, the valleys in the lowlands in the west are undulating, and the rain forests on the south coast are dense. More than 10,000 tribes; four lowland cities, nearly 400,000 people; three coastal cities, more than 300,000… All together, there are nine large city-states, more than 900,000 tribes!”
The black wolf’s eyes were burning, looking at the young priest who revealed his true feelings, he was silent in his heart. He pondered the situation of the Eastern Expedition, and worked hard to analyze the attack to the south, so as to accumulate experience for the inevitable southern expedition in the future.
The four states of Tlaxcala are small, prosperous, and relatively flat. Most Tlaxcala tribes are concentrated in the core Tlaxcala Valley and the holy city of Cholula. The alliance army is marching east, as long as it overcomes the barriers blocked by the north and the south, it will go straight to the heart of the old enemy and swept the heavy cities in the north and south. That is to say, all the tribes of Tlaxcala must rely on the checkpoint to stand firm with the city-state.
The nine Mistec are quite different. Their alliance is more loose, the land area is vast, and the terrain is divided and rugged. Even the population of each tribe is scattered among the mountains and valleys. In the entire Mistec alliance, the nine city-states do not belong to each other, and there is not a single capital higher than the other states, which can be done with one gram. And to conquer all the city-states, from the north to the south, there are a full 900 miles of mountain roads!
The black wolves have fought for many years from north to south, from west to east. Coupled with His Highness’s patient teaching, his vision has changed.
“The Mistec warriors are not strong. If they fight face to face, the Kingdom’s army can be completely defeated with one blow! But if they hide in the mountains, they will defend each city-state and cottage, and then send a small team of warriors and militia to attack and harass them. The army’s back road…”
Thinking of this, the black wolf frowned and fell into contemplation. If the city-state is cleared up one by one, I don’t know how many troops it will take and how many years it will take. He had a vague feeling that the Mistec tribes were probably somewhat similar to the Turks in the southwestern mountains.
“Facing such an opponent, military combat is no longer the biggest difficulty. The steep mountain and forest terrain, the long marching distance, the difficult mountain food routes, and the long-term maintenance of the military presence are the real troubles! … Forget it, Such a problem should be left to the wise Your Highness or the King!”
After a while, the black wolf shook his head vigorously. As his status improved, he thought more and more, and felt more and more that the knowledge in his brain was not enough. And now, it is still necessary to return to the task given by His Highness when he went south this time.
“…Collect southern intelligence to deter the Mistec ministries from going north. If there is an opportunity, try to reduce the opponent’s war potential as much as possible…”
The black wolf’s eyes became cold again. He stretched out his left hand, grabbed the young priest’s collar, and looked directly into the other’s evasive eyes.
“tell me your name?”
“…Respect Mexica Commander, I am the priest and elder of the Temple of the Clouds, the descendant of the Tiger Claw King, the goddess of the sky Andivi!”
The young priest Andiwei was a little afraid, but when he said his name, he still carried the pride and pride he was used to. In Mistec, andivi is the descendant of cloud, sky, sky. This is a sacred name, and only gods with noble bloodline are qualified to inherit it.
“You, so young, are the priests and elders?”
Hearing this, the black wolf was a little surprised. He remembered the priests and elders of the alliance, which one had not experienced the test, was cunning and cunning, and was accustomed to killing and blood sacrifices. And these ancient Mistec people actually let such a young goddess occupy the position of priest and elder…
He shook his head slightly and continued to question.
“How many warriors and militia are there in the city of God’s Stone? When will the other Mistec minions send reinforcements? How many reinforcements will there be in each state, and how long will it take to arrive?”
“…this, this…I…I don’t know…”
“Um?”
The black wolf looked cold. He stretched out his right hand and took the obsidian dagger handed by Koka the Red Frog. The sharp blade shone with the black light of sacrifice. Then, he grinned, and the black light pressed against the young priest’s neck, bringing real death pressure.
“last chance.”
“This, I…”
Andiwei was sweating profusely, and his face was extremely pale. His eyes drooped, and he saw the corpse of the old priest leader again, and even his fingers were shaking.
“I count three! Three! Two! One…”
“Ah! I said!”
The icy blade exerted a slight force, piercing the skin of the neck, oozing blood red. Andy Wei could no longer bear this torment, and he cried out in his shouts.
“In Shenshi City, there are 5,000 warriors and 10,000 militiamen stationed in the city! Coupled with the Ding Zhuang who fled into the city, it is estimated that thousands of people can be recruited!”
“Um…”
Hearing this, the black wolf raised his brows. In addition to the 3,000-thousand-thousand-thousand-thousand-kilometer Sturk warriors killed in the ambush, there are 12,000 warriors and militiamen in the city of Shenshi. With such a force, relying on a solid city wall, if it can’t hold fast…
“Unfortunately! This time, going south, it is difficult to travel in the mountainous area, and it is a rainy rainy season. It is impossible to carry the copper cannons that can bombard the city wall…”
Black Wolf sighed in his heart. The light troops of the Guaquili Corps dashed forward and raided the Mistec during the rainy season, carrying only a month’s supply of food.
In order to maintain logistics, the eight thousand legions were divided into three branches, scattered all over the valley to loot. The food route for the army was difficult, and the logistics had to be supplemented by looting along the way. Even the arrows lost were very limited, not to mention the heavy copper cannons that could not be used in the rainy season. The city wall of Shenshi City is six or seven meters high, the defending army is sufficient, and the morale of the defending city is also strong. If the other commander does not make serious mistakes, it will be very difficult to defeat.
“anything else?!”
“…The Highland Mistec is one with each other. The nobles of Yunshan City in the south must have received the news. Although their reinforcements are not many, only one or two thousand people, they should arrive within a few days.”
“Yunshan City? Two or three hundred miles to the south?…”
The black wolf’s eyes flashed, and he glanced at the map on the wooden board. Then, his finger pointed to the southwest.
“So, how will Lowland Mistec, Mountain River City, react?”
“This…how do I know…”
“Um?”
“…Ah! Dear general, this time, the various ministries are heading north to contain the forces of the Mexica Alliance and rescue the Tlaxcalans. It is the leader of Mountain River City, the nominal leader of Mistec, summoned by the god-born Yunchen Yuchi. of.”
At the front line of life and death, Andiwei’s thoughts turned rapidly, and he burst out with unprecedented intelligence and intelligence.
“The Tewakan Valley is attacked, and the city of Shenshi is in danger, and the city of Shanhe, which is more than 200 miles southwest, will also be threatened. What’s more, the temple in the cloud will fall, and the priests of all states will be shocked! The leader of Yunchen will definitely be in the mountains and rivers. In the city, gather all the warriors and withdraw the Mistec Legion that came out…”
Hearing this, the black wolf nodded slightly. The Misteke Legion that came out in front of them contracted with all their strength, and the major city-states gathered their troops to defend themselves. Naturally, the Misteke people’s containment of the South Road Army ceased to exist.
“The warriors gather in Mountain River City, and it takes time to mobilize. Before they gather enough troops, the Mistec warriors in the lowlands and coasts probably won’t take a huge risk and give their lives to help…”
Speaking of this, Andy Wei was secretly in his heart. The Mexicans in the north became stronger and stronger, conquering the Quartet and invincible. In the face of the terrifying northern tiger and the divided Mistec flock, when will they be able to unite?
“Oh? In a short period of time, there is not a lot of reinforcements…”
The black wolf narrowed his eyes, and a few thoughts flashed in his heart. Then, with murderous intent on his face, he asked coldly.
“Which tribes in the Tehuakan Valley have large populations and flat villages? Where are they located?”
“This…I…”
Andy Wei shivered. At this moment, he seemed to see endless fire and blood in the eyes of the commander of Mexica.
“Say!”
“Ah! In the Tehuakan Valley, there are about a dozen villages with more than 1,000 people. The largest villages even have tens of thousands of people. Their locations, yes, yes…”
“Andiwei! You yellow bird who betrayed the tribe!”
Hearing this, a middle-aged prisoner of priests couldn’t bear it any longer, and roared angrily. He knew that Andiwei’s next words must have the name of his tribe. And knowing these villages, what the cruel Mexica will do, I don’t know. As for the yellow bird, UU reading www.uukanshu.com has an ominous sign in traditional mythology.
“Think of your glorious ancestors! The immortal tiger claw king is in the kingdom of God, guarding our tribe! Look here again! This is the sacred cloud temple, the sanctuary of the gods! … Divi! In front of the supreme rain **** statue, how can you be so shameful to your ancestors and bloodline?! Aren’t you afraid of endless storms and divine punishment after death!”
“Um?”
Heilang’s eyes widened, and when he heard the sound, he saw an extremely excited middle-aged priest. The priest wore a blue feather crown and seemed to have a high status. The surrounding priests and captives secretly took him as the center.
Hearing the middle-aged priest’s rebuke, Andiwei’s face showed shame. He lowered his head, trembling all over, and was speechless for a moment.
“Ha ha!”
Killing intent appeared on the handsome face of the black wolf. He pulled out the bronze long sword at his waist, took a step towards the middle-aged priest, and suddenly stopped. Afterwards, he looked at the young Mistec priest, and once again looked at the other party’s fear and shame, the corners of his mouth gradually raised, and a playful smile appeared.
“Who is he?”
“…The temple priests and elders, the gods in the mountains, the Yin Pagoda of Flowers”
“Oh? Another elder priest. It seems that he is very dissatisfied with you.”
The black wolf nodded with a smile, and patted Andiwei on the shoulder. Then, with a sharp look, he threw a sharp obsidian dagger at the feet of the young priest with a “ding” sound.
“I said, give you a chance to convert to the Lord God! And now, it’s the test of your faith in the Lord God!”
Saying that, the black wolf stretched out his hand and pointed ruthlessly at the middle-aged priest on the opposite side, the elder Yin Ta, who was still roaring and filial while his hands were tied.
“Andywei! Right here, in front of the Rain God, walk over and kill him!”
