Aztec Eternals

"Ask me to lead 20,000 people to farm and return the imperial guards to me?"

The sky was bright, falling from the ceiling of the big tent, illuminating the faces of the two kings, making it impossible to hide any expressions. Hearing Avitt's smile, Shulot was first moved in his heart. No matter in terms of prestige, qualifications, or ability, he is the most suitable person in charge of the farming. He has also presided over the farming in Shuigucheng of 200,000 tribes. If you can take charge of a whole place now, you don't have to be limited to the God King...

"No! That's not right! I can't respond!... The four lines of the Qian hexagram say, 'No disadvantage, show humility.'... As an auxiliary position, among the king's ministers, you only need to follow the general trend, allocate task resources, and maintain humility. Just be low-key!…”

The complicated thoughts almost only lasted for an instant, and Shulot felt a chill in his heart, but he kept a modest smile on his face without showing any signs of it. He just pondered for a few breaths, then shook his head slightly.

"Dear God King! I am the chief priest in the army. My duty is to divine sacrifices and boost morale. The army is going south to attack Yunshan City. I don't know how long it will take to fight hard. If the city is trapped in a long-term siege, the priest's rituals will be even more needed to appease it. Military spirit!… As for the general affairs of the army, it is better for the God King to choose a capable legion commander to take full responsibility!…”

"Oh? Choose a legion commander? Shulot, don't refuse. Which legion commander's political ability can match yours?..."

Avitt's smile did not change, his eyes stayed on Shulot's face, not missing any detail. Shulot still shook his head and said sincerely.

"Dear God King, as the chief priest of the sect, I should serve the main **** and follow the path of divinity that belongs to the priest! Not the ruling party... In the army on the east road, the leader of the Dead Dog Army, Qiqi Mickey, guards the back road and always does things carefully. .The leader of the Huadiao Army, Chierto, can win people's hearts and is good at appeasing various ministries...The leader of the Yuyan Army, Mihoti, is a branch of the royal family and has a respected status. He is also a glorious nobleman of Sun City, and he can also calm the whole place...In my humble opinion, These three generals can all handle farm affairs well!"

"As the head priest of the sect, you should follow the path of divinity of the priests instead of the ruling party? That's right! Shulot, you have always been inspired by the gods and focused on the path of divinity that you respect. You are the greatest **** in the alliance. Yu!…”

Hearing this sentence, Avitt looked at Shulot deeply for a while, making sure that the other person was sincere, and then nodded with great satisfaction. Then, he gently rubbed his eyebrows and thought about the three candidates proposed by Shulot.

"The dead dog and the flower eagle are both civilian warriors that I single-handedly promoted. Their ability and loyalty are indeed sufficient! But when it comes to governing the farmland, they have neither local experience nor a large number of backbone manpower who are literate and able to manage the village... As for Mi Hoti, he is the leader of a local city-state and a branch of the royal family. He has the ability and talents to govern, but he cannot be trusted. We cannot leave our way out to him!... What's more, I hold three legions of the southern city-states in my hands. , it is precisely to be used in sieges, weaken the strength of the powerful nobles, and complete the centralization and transfer of power to the three southern states... The candidates for this farm are very important, they must be trustworthy, capable and good!..."

After thinking for a long time, Avitt's smile remained unchanged and he once again looked at Shulot who was sitting in a neat posture. He shook his head slightly, smiled and said.

"Xulot, since there are no other people in my tent, there is no need to be so reserved! Come, sit next to me..."

"Yes! Dear God King!"

"As I said, since it's not a public discussion, there's no need to be so angry! Call me teacher..."

"Yes! Respect...teacher!"

Shulot relaxed a little and was about to kneel down next to Avitt. Avitt smiled and pulled him, turning him into the cross-legged posture of a Mexican family gathering. There was a hint of surprise on Shulot's face, and a hint of gratitude at the right time. Avitt looked gentle and patted the student on the shoulder.

"Xulot, my student. I am not very satisfied with the three candidates you just proposed. They can only serve as deputies at most. The harvest from the fields in Shenshi City will determine the basis of the subsequent southern expedition, which is very important! You must have a truly experienced and capable general, and you must have a group of backbones who are familiar with farming, in order to really do this well!…”

"Experienced general? Familiar backbone?..."

After hearing this sentence, Shulot thought for a while and came to a clear understanding. This matter has gone round and round, but it still has to fall on him... no, it falls on the Lake Kingdom family! He thought for a moment and asked softly.

"God King, do you want me to select someone from among my close associates to serve as the alliance's general?"

"Well, that's right! If you want to really carry out a general service like this, you must have a group of reliable backbones so that there will be no problems in the actual operation..."

"I see!…"

Shulot thought for a moment, then saluted respectfully and said humbly.

"Dear...Teacher! The important tasks of the farming can be left to my captain of guard Ekart. He is calm and considerate. He has been by my side and has presided over the farming in Shuigu City. He is both capable and experienced! As for the management of the farming As the backbone, I can ask him to bring my thousand guardsmen there. These thousand people have also participated in the previous farming, and many of them are good at numbers, so they can do this important task well!..."

"Well! Shulot, you want to hand over the captain of the guard beside you and the last thousand kingdom guards left in the army to my farm?!..."

"Yes, teacher! The Lord God has witnessed that these are the most suitable candidates. They can do a good job in farming! And please forgive my little selfishness. I have carefully taught these thousands of guards. Most of them can read and count. . It would be a pity if it were used like the Broken Hair Imperial Guard at critical junctures in attacking a city. It would be better to stay in the rear and farm..."

After saying that, Shulot bowed humbly and looked sincerely ashamed. Avitt put away his gentle smile and showed a rare surprise on his face. Shulot was handing over the last of his personal bodyguards into his hands. He was truly magnanimous, handing life and death into his hands. Although he originally took Shulot with him at all times to separate him from the kingdom's guards, the other party was able to take the initiative to hand over his remaining force...

"Xulot..."

Avitt looked deeply at first, watching the students' frank, respectful and sincere expressions. After a while, he showed real relief. This time, after he was silent for a moment, he did not have a friendly smile or a majestic look, he just spoke calmly.

"My student, I am really pleased that you can put the overall situation of the alliance first!...Shadow Dagger!"

"His Majesty the God King!..."

Following Avitt's greeting, Chief Intelligence Officer Shadow Dagger appeared out of nowhere. Wearing an inconspicuous gray robe, he knelt down in front of Avit silently, waiting for the God King's order.

"King's order: Set up a field in the valley of Shenshi City. Ekart will be the general of the field. He will lead a thousand kingdom guards, four thousand city-state warriors, and fifteen thousand militiamen. He will govern more than 100,000 Mixtec tribes' fields! Then he will use the Huadiao Legion. Chief Chilto is his deputy, leading his eight thousand royal regiments to assist. Ekart is responsible for all farm affairs, while the defense of the north and south of the valley is left to Chilto!..."

"yes!…"

Shadow Dagger saluted respectfully, and then prepared to draft a royal order. But Avitt waved his hand gently and gave another instruction.

"Shadow Dagger, transfer forty of my personal guards, plus ten secret guards, to Shulot's command. Protect his safety strictly, and give him a copy of all letters and reports from the alliance! "

Shadow Dagger didn't say a word of nonsense. He just looked at Shulot and nodded heavily in response.

"yes!"

"Get down!"

"yes!"

After Shadow Dagger left with light steps and no sound, Avitt looked at the students beside him and gave a serious warning.

"Xulot, since you have clearly chosen the path of divinity as a priest, I will naturally leave the position of high priest of the alliance to you! However, given the current complex situation within the high priest group, it is less than thirty years old than yours. At your age...you don’t have to rush, you need to cultivate the foundation.”

"Witness the Lord God! You have been inspired by the gods and obtained the 'divination' method given by the gods, but you have encountered some obstacles with the priests and elders of the high priest group! You should be able to predict that this new divination will have a great impact on those old priests. The impact of the divination power of the priests, this is a real seizure of power! If you had not taken it out in the Eastern Expedition Army, but in the capital city of the lake, I am afraid that there would have been a big quarrel by now, and you would even take action..."

"My student, when you return to the capital, you will be one of the most powerful contenders for the position of high priest, and now you have shown a clear intention to seize power... Although the high priest of Ugel has no intention of fighting for power, he may even be willing to give up his position. But the secret struggle between the other priests and elders and the various priest factions is very unpredictable! ... You must always be on guard against such secret arrows! And if you stay by my side, protected by my personal guards and secret guards, then It’s the safest place!”

"In addition, look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com Starting from tomorrow, I will let a group of young children from the royal family and nobles come to your tent to worship you as their teacher and learn the new god-given 'divination'! Spread the new divination Kailai can not only give you a group of reliable royal priest disciples, increase the royal family's theocratic power...it can also enhance your royal prestige, making you safer and with a deeper foundation!...Little Kuitlawak is ten years old. He is seven years old and is accompanying the army. I will let him pass. You have a good relationship with him. You must teach him patiently and lead him on the path of a holy priest!..."

"Huh? Little Quatlawak? Let him take the path of a priest?"

Shulot had already expected the previous words. He took out his new "Bagua Divination" and embarked on the path of the high priest's divine authority, and he was ready to fight against the alliance's priests and elders! In this ecological niche, he and the powerful sect chief priests who aspired to the position of high priest were complete competitors. Avitt recognized his political positioning and expressed support for him, which was not beyond his expectation.

After all, this is actually the elder's path to theocracy, the path Avitt wants him to take. Avitt didn't care, and even hoped that after his death, there would be another elder in the alliance. Because along the way, Avitt will become a reliable political ally with him, sharing the power of time. But there are many people in the capital, many priests and elders, many glorious nobles, and many royal branches, but they do not want to be enveloped by an immortal sun for another few decades! …

"Teacher, you mean...the enfeoffment of Asal's line, Little Quatlawak?..."

Hearing Shulot's easy-to-understand inquiry, Avitt smiled and nodded. With a gloomy look on his face, he patted Shulot on the shoulder and said in a deep voice.

"I actually have a new idea about the enfeoffment of the Land in the Clouds... Your and Alyssa's second child will be born soon! If it's still a boy this time..."
