Aztec Eternals - Chapter 579
The first priest, Vico, left, wearing a low-key black robe and a plain black cloak, just as he had come. However, the honorable chief of Shenshicheng had a blue nose and a swollen face, and there was a deep humiliation in his heart, as well as hatred that could not be erased.
Andiwei stood in front of the window of the temple hall, watching the black-robed chief, under the **** of the warriors, disappeared into the western mountains and forests. And behind the mountains and forests, is the sturdy city of God’s Stone, like a curled hedgehog, stuck behind the Mexica Legion.
“Ha! Don’t look at it. If you really hate that old fox, wait for him to come to negotiate next time and kill him yourself!”
The red monkey Ozoma raised his mouth and walked to the side of the young priest, also looking at the city of Shenshi in the sky.
Today’s negotiations, although no final result has been achieved, the Mistec people have already known the conditions and expressed a certain degree of surrender. In a secret negotiation with such a big relationship, the messenger of the other party always has to go back and forth several times. At the very least, Chief Vico should share the responsibility for the demands and negotiation with the priests and nobles in the city of God’s Stone, instead of fighting against it all alone.
“I… personally… kill the Chief?”
Hearing this, Andiwei’s expression froze, his limbs stiff. He had no doubts about the determination of the red-haired barbarian, and once again realized the power of the Aztec Alliance. Even an ordinary tribal chief dared to put the chief priest who killed Mistec to his lips.
“…Uh, the next negotiation, Chief Vico, may not come over… Uh, the negotiation was requested by the Black Wolf Great Chief. Killing the other party’s messenger, I am afraid it will ruin the Great Chief’s affairs…”
“Ha ha!”
Hearing this, the red monkey Orzoma grinned. He reached out and patted the stiff shoulder of the young priest, mocking.
“It’s really a little wolf dog, even biting a fox, it’s timid! The Mistec people have no power to fight back on the battlefield. Even if a priest chief dies, they still have to beg for peace! Besides, outside of this group of dogs You can’t fight, but internal fighting is fierce. Even in the nest, they will bite and bite each other. If you kill the chief, the rest of the people may even be happy!”
“…”
Andiwei was speechless again, his face changed with blue and purple, and he felt like being scolded by someone’s nose. The red-haired barbarian said it was rude, but it was the truth of the southern city-state. The infighting of the priests and elders has always been fierce and cruel…
“Hey! Lord God! May you bless me and give me light in my heart!”
“Ha! The Lord God bless!”
Seeing Andiwei’s prayer, the red monkey Orzoma pursed his lips. He also closed his eyes and prayed for a while. Then, Orzoma opened his eyes, looked at the team of prisoners that were going away, and asked seriously.
“Little Wolfdog, your arithmetic is good. These days, how many young captives have the legion migrated north?”
“let me see.”
Andy Wei took out a roll of cardboard paper from his arms. This is Mexica paper, which is much better than wood.
“As of today, there have been twelve teams heading north, each ranging from five hundred to more than a thousand prisoners… In addition to the one that just passed… There are about ten thousand young men and women!”
“And according to the message from the commander-in-chief of the black wolf, there are probably the same number of young and strong prisoners in the valley to the south, and they will be escorted here!”
“Well, 10,000 plus 10,000, that’s more than 20,000 young men and women? No, there are three or four thousand soldiers, that’s 20,000… 5,000 mouths.”
The red monkey Orzoma hooked his fingers and calculated for a while. Afterwards, he tried his best to calculate the food reserves, and his expression was a little serious.
“With an additional 25,000 people, the legion’s food will only be enough for one month! Expeditions abroad, looting a lot, but the consumption is also huge! It seems that it must be beaten out from the hands of Shenshicheng. Pen rations!”
In this era, armies are scattered and looted, often with great attrition. Unless a large granary or a particularly rich area is captured, it is difficult to have a surplus.
“Yes. Witness of the Lord God! I will fiercely intimidate the city of Shenshi for the sake of the Black Wolf Chief and the Legion! I know their weakness, that is the power of the city-state! If it is delayed for too long, the Tewakan Valley will burn to a white ground. , the strength of the various ministries has been greatly damaged, and the leader of Yunchen in Mountain River City will probably find an opportunity to invade the city of God!
The words of the two gradually became low and scattered into the evening wind of late summer. Their gazes were dimly looking to the west. The west is a verdant mountain forest, and it is a city of gods in the highlands, while Huahuapan, a mountain and river city in the lowlands, is just two hundred miles away!
September gradually passed and the rainy season came to an end. The black-robed messengers from Shenshi City came and went, and the migrating captives made their way northward. The big leader of the cloud dust in Shanhe City finally gathered more than 10,000 Mistek warriors and more than 10,000 mountain militiamen to station at the mountain pass in the southwest of the valley.
These Mistec armies all came from the lowland and coastal city-states, led by different military chiefs, and only responded under the banner of the great chief of cloud dust. They set up camp, took up the terrain, and kept on threatening the Mexica legion going south.
The black wolf gathered the army, brought 6,000 Guaquili Corps, 4,000 Tlaxcala descendants, and 4,000 Sturks descended to confront the Mistec reinforcements. He was determined to have a happy field battle and defeat the main force of the Mistecs in one fell swoop. However, the commander-in-chief on the opposite side did not give him this chance.
The main force of the big leader Yunchen was not stationed, but he just kept sending small teams to fight with the Mexican scouts in the mountains and forests with familiar terrain.
As the sun rises and the moon sets, hundreds of scouts and militiamen hunt, attack, entangle, and die like dry grass in the rolling hills and forests. Every day, dozens of casualties continue. For the Mistecs who were familiar with the terrain, this small-scale battle in the mountains and forests could bridge the gap between them and the Mexica warriors to the greatest extent.
“Damn it! These pigs in the mountains will hide in the mud and smoke people with their stench!”
In the face of such a battle situation, the black wolf was a little irritable. Although the Guaquili warriors can fight in the mountains, it is too wasteful to consume the Mistec people like this, and it is impossible to determine the overall situation. He has a strong urge to directly bring the army to press, storm the mountain camp of the big leader Yunchen, and then personally kill the opponent!
However, after a while, the black wolf let out a long breath and shook his head. In his heart, the instinct of being a commander still overwhelmed the impulse of being a warrior.
“The two thousand people of Yunshan City also appeared in the mountains and forests in the southeast. There are also thousands of warriors and militiamen hidden in the city of Shenshi. The Mistec people have a long history and will build strong camps and cities to control the fortresses in the mountains. They After all, they are the ancient people of the rain, not the same as the wild Texans.”
“Going south so far, more than 20,000 mouths have been looted, and the Tewakan Valley has been sacked… It’s time to embark on the return journey north! His Royal Highness sent a message for the last time, saying that the king was urgently urging him to lead the army of guards to the north. , I don’t know whether to start…”
Thinking of this, the black wolf looked serious and looked north. The high and distant sky is vast, and the land of the plateau is flat and empty. There is where jaguars run and eagles fly. And the vast mountains and forests in the south will wait until later to clean up!
“Send order! Accept the latest conditions of Shenshi City! Give them five days and hand over 20,000 people and a month’s food! As long as the food is sufficient, release the prisoners and nobles captured by each tribe, and return the temple in the cloud to them!”
At the end of September, outside the city of Shenshi, the Guaquili Corps received the last batch of food, withdrew from the Temple of the Clouds, and officially returned to the north. Twenty thousand young Misteke captives were escorted out of the Tehuakan Valley. The 5,000 troops of various subordinates were also coerced by the legion and went to the mountain city of Tlaxcala.
The sun sets, and the birds fly in the mountains. The black wolf Toltek, with the two thousand warriors in the rear, stood on the hill north of Shenshi City, staring silently.
In front of him, he couldn’t wait to send a small team of warriors to recover the Shenshi City of the Temple in the Clouds. Further south, thousands of lowland Mistec militias followed far behind the army, like escorts sending them out of the country, and like grass rats following jaguars. As for the main force of the big boss of Yunchen…
The black wolf narrowed his eyes and looked at the mountains opposite. At the end of the sky, a group of vague dots and a battle flag with an indistinct pattern could be seen faintly.
“Commander of the Black Wolf, that is the battle flag of the great leader of Yunchen. The top is a white cloud, and the bottom is golden sand. The so-called ‘Yunchen’ is the revered descendant of the cloud, occupying the rich golden sand. , Mountain River City!”
Andywei looked complicated and explained in a low voice. As the priest and elder of the Temple of Clouds, he has naturally seen the great leader of Shanhe City. It was an ambitious god-born, also with the blood of the Tiger Claw King…
“The big leader of cloud dust… the land of Jinsha!”
The black wolf paused and repeated it slowly. He pursed his lips and stared deeply for a while before making a solemn announcement.
“Let’s go, don’t look at it! With the blessing of the Lord God, and His Highness’s divine enlightenment, the Legion of the Alliance is destined to sweep the world! … Andiwei, we will be back!”
Having said that, the black wolf turned around with his head held high, carrying a high handsome flag and an elite warrior, stepping towards the conquered north.
At the same moment, a sturdy middle-aged leader, wearing a gorgeous golden robe, was also standing under the handsome banner. He has a handsome appearance, white teeth, exquisite silver ornaments on his hands and feet, and mysterious tattoos on his face. It was a blue wave, a trace of a cloud, and a divine pattern that directly communicated with the Rain God and the ancestors.
“Respected leader of the cloud dust, Aztec barbarians, finally gone!”
A scout warrior came hurriedly, knelt on the ground, and reported to the revered chief.
“Um.”
The big leader Yunchen nodded slightly, maintaining his majestic divinity. Yes, he is not only the military leader of Shanhe City, but also the priest and elder of Shanhe City. In other words, he has completely controlled the entire city-state in his hands!
“Aztecs…Sacred Stone City…Temple in the Clouds…”
The sight of the big leader Yunchen did not stay on the distant wolf flag for too long. He looked at Shenshi City again, after thinking for a long time, he looked again at the Temple in the Clouds not far away. On the towering temple, the flag of the Rain God has just been erected, announcing the return of the god.
“Big leader, Shenshi City has sent a small team of warriors, take the first step and receive the Temple in the Cloud!”
“Ha! The old guys in Shenshicheng gave up the Holy Land, let others loot, and secretly begged for peace with the Aztec barbarians… It’s just humiliating the Rain God and humiliating the tribe!”
The big leader Yunchen had a slightly cold expression, and in front of many chiefs, he spoke uprightly and scolded in a deep voice. However, the corners of his mouth were quietly raised, and he had already made a decision in his heart!
“Mistek ministries, it can’t be like this anymore! Facing the increasingly powerful Mexicans, only the loosely united ministries have hope of resistance! And to unite the entire alliance, who else is there besides me?”
“The Tewakan Valley has been looted, and the strength of God’s Stone City has been greatly damaged. In my hands, there are 20,000 lowland and coastal legions, and they occupy the righteousness of saving the Holy Land… The dominion of God’s Stone City, and even the entire Highland Meath Turk’s theocracy has to be discussed again!”
Thinking of this, the big leader Yunchen lowered his eyes a little and prayed for the Tlaxcala alliance in the north for a second~www.mtlnovel.com~ Then, he opened his eyes, already full of fighting spirit.
“Go! The army goes north to guard the revered Temple in the Clouds!”
The big leader of Yunchen Shen Sheng ordered. His face is full of genuine piety, like a messenger of the gods, which makes people admire at first sight.
“Blessed by the rain god, I led the army to expel the brutal Aztecs! … In order to thank the rain god, five days later, I will hold a sacred ceremony in the temple in the cloud! Send messengers, please Shenshicheng The chiefs, and the rest of the priests and elders, participate in the ceremony together!”
The patter of light rain fell from the gloomy sky, like dust falling from the clouds. The balance of power has been broken, and the sound of the wind before the shower, whistling in the Land of the Rain God, turned into the last heavy rain before the end of the rainy season.
Disputes between the Mistec tribes are about to arise, as for the life and death of the Tlaxcala… Then only, let the cloud snake protect it!
