Aztec Eternals

Chapter 230: Night talk and oath, seal and promise!

The bonfire was bright, the night breeze was warm, and the welcome dinner was simple and grand. Simple is the banquet food, solemn is the samurai etiquette.

Avette was sitting in the center seat, and Sherlot was seated next to him. The generals of the two armies stepped forward one after another, toasting the king and His Royal Highness successively, and then offering spring flowers and the most precious trophies. Avit looked at the generals with a smile, talked cordially one by one, praised the achievements of the commanders of the various divisions from time to time, and then asked about the casualties of the troops. Shulot kept quiet, nodding to the generals while thinking about the follow-up plan.

When the generals finished a round of toasting, and the situation of the Northern Army was almost understood, Avit stood up from the main seat with a smile, and proudly raised his glass to the generals.

"Very good! This time on the westward expedition, the North Army took the lead in breaking through the frontier fortress of Tarasco Kingdom, and successively defeated several Tarasco legions, and even captured King Tarasco! Ke, invincible in battle, the Northern Legion has become famous all over the world!"

Then, King Avit patted Shilot on the shoulder and praised kindly.

"Shirot, you have given me a lot of surprises! You are the youngest marshal in the alliance, the most skilled in combat, and the greatest hero in the Western Expedition. This cup is my honor! Come on, all generals fill this cup with me. Drink up together!"

"Your Highness!"

Hearing the king's words, all the generals in the north and south raised their wine glasses and drank in greeting. Shilot hurriedly got up to drink, poured another glass, and responded to Avette. After the two had finished drinking, Avit waved his hand and said to the generals with a smile.

"The prey is beside me, and the jaguar can't take a nap! Let's go here for today's banquet, everyone will go back to their camp, prepare their troops, and make full preparations for the siege!"

"Yes, follow your will!"

"Well. Shirot, you stay!"

The congregation will salute and disperse, and the tent soon becomes quiet. Avit took off his complicated royal clothes, took off his gorgeous long crown, and put on only a comfortable plain robe, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he put away his smile, stroked the divine scepter in his hand, and thought for a while before asking seriously.

"Where is Suangua?"

"He's in the back camp."

"Take me to see!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Shirot bowed his head and saluted, then turned to lead the way. The two walked in tandem under the new moon at the beginning of the month. The moonlight was dim, the stars twinkled, and prayers were sung in the tent. The singing came from a distance, and it seemed to be a hymn about the alternate reincarnation of the four solar epochs. The two kings walked quietly, listening to the quaint songs, but neither of them said a word.

"It's here."

Shulot walked to a side tent, and dozens of guarded warriors saluted. Avit waved his hand, opened the tent door first, and strode in.

The tent is still an ordinary grass bed. Su Angua's complexion was much better than last time. He was lying on the bed quietly, with a strange smile on his face.

"Ah, greetings to you, High King..."

The old priest hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Hahaha!...Suangua! Suangua!"

Seeing King Tarrasco on the grass bed, Avit laughed heartily, almost to tears. Amid the wanton laughter, memories of the past flooded into my mind one by one: the high spirits of the first Western expedition four years ago, the hardship and exhaustion of the fierce battle in the mountains, the unwillingness of the Chinese army’s defeat, and being guarded by a bronze axe The fear of chasing, the torment after losing the right of inheritance... Until today, it is dripping and hearty like revenge!

"what!"

Avit laughed and stepped forward, pulled Suangua's hair, and looked at the other's face. It was the first time he had seen the King of Tarrasco up close. Although, he has imagined today's scene countless times. The king laughed and watched recklessly, as if he was looking at a precious treasure, with joy from his heart; while the other king was always asleep, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he did not want to wake up in a cruel world .

Avit laughed for a while before gradually calming down. Then he looked at the old priest and asked sharply.

"How is he?"

"Ah, esteemed king! The sacrifice is safe and healthy. He woke up once in the afternoon and scolded His Highness for a while. Since he was outside the capital, his mood has been unstable... I fed him again. A little bit of water... Dear King, do you need me to wake him up?"

"it is good!"

Arvet nodded eagerly. The old priest then took out a pot of medicine, pinched Su Angua's chin, and forced the medicine. Su Angua kept pursing her lips and didn't open her mouth. The old priest's forehead began to sweat. He took a peek at the expressionless king, and his heart became cold, his hands became ruthless, and he went straight to pinching the other's neck.

Seeing all this, Avit's expression gradually solidified. He watched the old priest strangle Su Angua's neck, the other side was blue and purple, but he still didn't open his mouth, as if he would rather die of suffocation.

"Stop! Stop, step back!"

Avit coldly ordered.

"He is a noble king of gods after all!"

Hearing this, the old priest Nuonuo let go of his hand and stepped aside.

Avett stepped forward. This time, he just leaned down and stared at the other person's face.

"Suangua, Suangua. My old friend, my old rival, you are indeed a qualified eagle! Because of you, I lost the throne! Because of you, I suffered the biggest setback in my life! ...But, I finally stood up again, and stood in front of you!  …

There are only distant peaks in the eyes of the eagle! Tisok is the first seat, and you are the second seat under my feet! After flying over the mountain, everything in the past is boring, and even makes people no longer interested to think about it... Ah, this world is vast after all, and the eagle is destined to conquer! ...just, you never get a chance to see it again! ..."

Having said that, Avit stretched out his hand and patted Su Angua's cheek lightly. He stared at the sleeping face of the "old friend", and then his eyes flashed, revealing a faint smile.

"Shirot, let's go! Next, we must capture Qincongcan City as soon as possible!"

Avet turned around and walked out of the tent without looking back. Xiulote thought for a while, then glanced at the sleeping Su Angua, and left after Avit.

The old priest tied his hands and bowed his waist, respectfully sending the king and His Royal Highness away, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. Afterwards, he cursed something in a low voice, raised his hand and slapped the sleeping Su Angua twice, and went to prepare the potion.

The tent was quiet again, and King Tarrasco was still asleep. Just unconsciously, tears welled up from the corners of his eyes.

The stars were still bright, but the camp began to become quiet. Avit stopped, found an open flat, and sat cross-legged on the grass. He waved his hand, motioning for the guards to disperse, and then he waved to Shirott to sit beside him.

The two looked up at the night sky, once again silent. After a while, Avit said with a smile.

"Shirot, do you remember the first time we looked at the stars?"

Shirot thought for a while and asked hesitantly.

"It seemed that there were no stars that day, and you asked me what is the human heart?"

Avit froze for a moment, then laughed.

"That was the second time! The first time you were drunk and told me a lot of things from your heart. What equality, what life... I always remember it very clearly!"

"Huh?...I don't remember. But it sure sounds like something I'd say before!"

Xiulott thought for a while, but his mind was blank, so he could only shake his head with a wry smile.

"Haha, actually, that time, I added a little potion to the wine...Shirot, my student, do you still believe this now?"

"Well...I believed it once. Then I didn't. Now I believe it again."

"Oh? Why do you believe some more now?"

"Because, I have been able to change the world!"

Shirot said with a confident smile.

Avit was silent for a while, and a sincere smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"How fast! In just three years, you have grown to where you are today! When I see you, I will feel that I am the best teacher in the world!"

"Haha, then I'm also the best student in the world!"

The two kings laughed at the same time. The cheerful laughter echoed under the night sky, as if to conquer the night sky.

"Okay, Shilot, my child."

After a while, Avit stopped laughing. He turned his head, looked into the boy's eyes, and said seriously.

"The young eagle has grown up! It can't stay in its mother's nest. It needs to spread its wings, and it needs its own territory and sky!"

Hearing the teacher's words, Shirot realized something. He was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"The high priest must have talked to you about the plan of dividing the seal."

Shirot nodded again.

Avit touched the boy's head and continued to speak calmly.

"Since we have hit Qin Congcan's city, and the two armies have successfully joined forces, the victory of the Western Expedition is almost certain, and the enfeoffment is just around the corner. It's time to talk to you about this in person."

"Gilliam gave me some advice. Some I agree with, some I don't agree with. I have been fighting abroad this year, and I am used to seeing bloodshed. You have grown a lot, and I have changed a lot. Now it seems that there are many things in the world. Things must not be hidden and tucked away, they must be directly brought out and explained!"

Hearing this, Shulot was stunned. He had a premonition... The boy looked at Avit's eyes and listened carefully.

"Shirot, my ambition is to conquer the world! You are my best helper. It will be difficult to see each other again in the future. There must be no rift between us!"

"You were born in the royal branch, and you have the same deep roots. My youngest son is still young, and the eldest daughter I love most is your fiancee... Today, I have sworn to the gods in front of the generals: the heir of the alliance will be You, this will not change! Your ability is also enough to control the alliance and defend the world that I will conquer!"

Sherlot looked at Avette's sincere eyes, and the memories of the past flooded into his heart one after another. He pursed his lips and nodded solemnly.

"Avit, you can trust me at any time, and I will never betray you!"

Hearing this, Avet raised his head and laughed. He put his arms around the boy's shoulders kindly and said gently.

"From the day you rescued me in the hands of Totec, I made an oath to my ancestors: For the rest of my life, as long as you don't betray me, I will make you a beautiful jade that inherits the world! The status of the ancestors is higher than that of the ancestors. God. In my heart, Alyssa and you are the only two people I can fully trust!"

Having said that, Avit reached into his arms, took out a roll of delicate cotton cloth, and a cyan sachet.

"Here, this is a letter from Alyssa to you, and this little sachet. Don't take it apart now, and look at it when you go back. Hey, when my daughter grows up, she can't keep her mind. In her heart, You're heavier than me, I'm afraid. She never wrote me such a long letter..."

Sherlot carefully put the letter and sachet into his arms and put them away close to him. Here, there is also the long-awaited longing.

Avit sighed, looked at the stars in the sky, and said with a smile.

"Continue to talk about the division. After conquering the Tarasco Kingdom, I plan to divide the land in the lake into three roughly."

Shilot stood up and listened carefully to Avette's arrangement.

"First of all your fiefs. North to the long Leman River, east to the mountains of Apache Gambang, south to the wide Tulsa River. The thriving Patzcuaro Lake District, the important South Lake District copper mines , the majestic Qin Congcan City, and the wealthy Ivacio City... I will give you all these places! As long as you can effectively control the situation, most of the kingdom will be your fief!"

"Shirot, my student, I should be able to live for a long time! It will take a long time for you to return to the capital. For such a long time, you must be left with the opportunity to start a war. Therefore, I will leave the western boundary of the fiefdom. No. This time the expedition will end in Qincongcan City, and the next focus will be on the Tlaxcala people. Further west, the Chapala Lake District, the Colima Mountains in the southwest, the Guamal Dogs in the northwest, and even Distant North Texans, I'll leave it to you to conquer slowly!"

Hearing such candid words, Shulot's forehead was slightly sweaty, and his heart was full of emotion. He didn't know what to say, he could only bow down and salute.

"Your Majesty...Avit...I..."

"Don't worry! As a king, you need to have some arrangements, and you can also avoid people who push you to do stupid things and make me embarrassed."

Avit gave a hearty smile and patted Shulot on the shoulder again.

"Then came Tepopolo, the noble nobleman. He handed over the titular fief of the city of Tlatelolco and demanded that it be relocated to a foreign country. His fief was on the banks of the Leman. A circle of wooden forts on the north bank, Akambaro, the estuary fortress in the west, is assigned to his family. These places are densely forested and sparsely populated. They are all fortresses and fortresses. The land is also very barren. What a threat."

Hearing this, Shilot was stunned. He opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.

"Finally, Iskali, who came from the royal family. His fief is in Apatchin Gambang. This fief is even smaller, and it is also mainly defensive. It is a completely militarized fort group. In addition, he is also responsible for supervising the new There are many copper mountains there. The copper mine in the south of Ivacio City is given to you, and this copper mine must be directly under the royal family!"

Shulot recalled the map of the land in the lake in his mind, and his arrangement for Avit became clearer. The Akambaro State in the north has a strong fortress defense line, and the Apatchin Gambang in the south has a more dangerous terrain. This time, the division was actually following the offensive route of the north and south armies, dividing the key barriers of the north and south of the Tarasco Kingdom as a separate military territory, and then handing over the most essential kingdom hinterland to himself.

In this way, the Texcoco Lake District, the core of the alliance, will maintain a commanding geographical advantage. Even if the Patzcuaro Lake District is prosperous and powerful again, or even an independent rebellion, it is difficult to threaten the security of the core of the alliance.

Thinking of this clearly, Shirot opened his mouth again.

"Avett, this...this plan...was designed by Gilliam?"

"Well, it's the intelligence officer's second plan. What, Shulot, aren't you satisfied?"

Avit's gentle eyes were instantly sharp. He looked into Shiroutte's eyes and said with a faint smile.

"Shirot, my student. I have tried my best to give you the most! According to the intelligence officer's first plan, the Kingdom of Tarasco will be divided into dozens of small towns, and nobles from all over the world will check and balance each other. ...my student, what more do you want?"

Shilot was silent for a while, gritted his teeth, still looked into Avit's eyes, and said frankly.

"Avit, I want an estuary fort! The expedition of the Chapala Lakes and the Guamal breed requires the Leman River waterway. The estuary is the best naval base and an excellent shipbuilding center! In addition, I have a A far-flung idea: Let the navy follow the Leman River, all the way to the great lake in the west, and all the way north, to the many small islands in the lake. There are countless natural fertilizers there... I can hand over a part of the fief of the lake. ..”

Avit did not speak. He looked into Shulot's sincere eyes and nodded slowly.

"Okay! You shot down the estuary fortress, I'll give it to you! Since you want to build a ship, I'll give you another group of boatmen!"

Serious joy appeared on Shiroutte's face. He thought about it, and promised seriously.

"The copperware skills of the Prepecha people are unparalleled in the world. They not only have simple copper skills, but also skilled bronze skills! The heads of the king's spears are made of solid bronze, and the battle axes of the bronze axe guards are also bronze. Weapons, Suangua even has a bulky set of bronze armor!

These bronze weapons have huge advantages. The reason why the Tarasco Kingdom can concentrate power and become the only kingdom is to rely on the central bronze technology. Qin Cong Cancheng has always strictly managed bronze technology and regarded it as the highest secret. The copper wares used in foreign trade are only soft red copper...

I have captured a group of coppersmiths in the city of Ivacio and have a general understanding of bronze making. As long as you try for a while, you can find a large copper smelting shaft furnace. After the capture of Qincongcan City, I will sort out these technologies as soon as possible and hand them over to you. As long as a large number of bronzes can be smelted, the alliance can effectively reform the mining industry, manufacture a large number of bronze farm implements and tools, and then build roads in the wild, connecting the alliance into a kingdom! "

Avette quietly listened to Shilott's narration. Although he doesn't understand the craftsmanship of these metals, he can identify the excitement and analyze the new future from the young man's words. After a while, Avit replied with a smile.

"Haha, Xiulote, you are the Highness of Shen Qi. I will give you all these technological inventions!"

Then, Avit's expression became a little dignified.

"The Tlaxcalans in the east have mobilized 30,000 warriors and 30,000 militiamen. They have invaded the southeast of the alliance and captured half of the Vácstopec state. The Vastek people in the northeast have also been unstable. , Apatchin Gambang's enemies have surrendered, and the commander-in-chief Kuiyus is missing. There are more than 30,000 warriors and 20,000 militia left in the Southern Army Corps. Most of them have returned to the division to support, and the rest are with me. Here. I won't stay too long in Qin Cong Can City."

"30,000 warriors, 30,000 militias? Did the Tlaxcalans really invade?! Acap is sent to the holy city of Cholula, are you all right now?"

Shiroute looked surprised. He had been fighting in the Tarrasco hinterland and knew little about news from afar.

"Ha, Acap is very popular among the elders in the religious city-state. The divine smoke, holy water, singing and dancing beauty, life is more nourishing than ours. As for the feud of the Tlaxcalans, I will personally lead the army to fight, and I have to fight the last one! "Shirot, do you have any plans for attacking the heroic city of Qin Congcan?"

"Well, I do have some plans for the siege. These days, some nobles in the city secretly sent messengers to contact me. They are willing to lose their sincerity collectively, on the condition that the alliance protects their fiefs."

Having said this, a faint smile appeared on Shirot's face.

"Securing the fief... Well, although the monarch is a proud eagle, sometimes he can act like a wise fox and flexibly deal with a stupid turkey."

Avett chuckled.

Shulot also smiled~www.readwn.com~ He narrowed his eyes and smiled like a little fox.

"That's not necessary. I actually have another way. These days, the legion has slowly built earthen equipment on the surface, paralyzed the defenders in the city, and secretly communicated with each other. I have been waiting for your reinforcements to arrive, so I am so excited, Suppress Qin Cong Cancheng!...Well, this way...that's it."

"Oh? Very good! Since you have a plan, aside from the nobles, the eight thousand warriors in my hands will be temporarily assigned to you!"

"Ah, thank you, Your Majesty!...Thank you, teacher!"

Shulot bowed down and Avette accepted it calmly. The night was dark, the stars fell on the earth, and the two kings sat opposite each other. In a few words, it decides national affairs; in a smile, a smile determines the rise and fall of the world. The night was long and the stars were shining, until the dawn came. Ziweixing disappears from the north, Taibaixing rises from the east, and a new day is coming!
