Aztec Eternals

The long wind is hunting, and the wolf flag is fluttering. The 7,000 Guard Corps went all the way south from Otto City, carrying the power to suppress everything. With heavy armor and bronze guns, the legion could only travel 30 miles a day. It took Shilot four days to reach the fief of the crow family. One thousand Gyeonggi Corps have settled in Raven Manor, taking over every aspect of the fief.

The old crow Sitley brought his clansmen and knelt down at the gate of the manor, welcoming His Majesty's flag.

He hurried all the way, and finally returned to Raven Manor before the Mexica warriors attacked. After reading the secret letter, he slapped the foolish eldest son to the ground and cursed angrily.

"I told you not to be literate! I told you to not be literate! You almost killed the family, idiot!"

That night, the Crow Clan surrendered to the Orosh Army Commander, handing over the entire fief, the population of more than 10,000, and a secret letter from the Zicao Clan. Orosh left a thousand warriors to wait for His Majesty, and continued to lead his army south to support the city of Kuramo.

Sherlot stayed at the Raven Manor for a day and met the old Raven Patriarch. For the obedient choice of the old crow, the king expressed great joy in his heart. In the entire Shicao County, there are three glorious nobles with a population of more than 10,000 people. The palm and comfrey families rebelled one after another, and only the crow family obeyed the will and surrendered their territory.

After pondering for a long time, Shilot decided to set up the crow family as a model. After the crow family handed over 200,000 mu of fief, it will be re-sealed in Guamare State, taking over the 20,000 mu fief reserved for the comfrey family, and allowing 1,000 mouths to be reserved.

The old crow kowtowed again and again, shedding tears of gratitude, and his heart was full of bitter joy. The kingdom's enfeoffed land and Dingkou directly doubled, from a 90% reduction to a 90% reduction.

"...It's better than the comfrey family that has perished, and the palm family that is about to perish!"

The old crow thought so. In such a world of great competition, it is not easy to survive. The next step is to truly attach to the wings of the kingdom, with the condor flying high...

After dealing with the Raven family, the 7,000 Janissaries headed south again and arrived at Kuramo City three days later. At this time, the rebellion in Kuramo City has been quelled, leaving only the blood that has not been washed away. The banner of the Lord God fluttered at the top of the city again, and the patrolling Mexica warriors controlled the city. Thousands of rebels were arrested and guarded in the north of the city.

Jaguars Olosh and veteran Etalek divided their responsibilities after meeting. Orosh was stationed in the barracks outside the city, commanding the Gyeonggi Corps, and taking over all the noble territories in the Kuramo area. Etalik stayed in the temple pyramid in the city to restore order in the city.

Wang Qi was stationed at the barracks outside the city for a day. Oloshi reported the latest development.

After the Gyeonggi Corps destroyed the Shigao family, they were divided into several teams and swept across the north bank of Lake Atoyake. Wherever the king's army went, the southern nobles all bowed their heads and surrendered their land and mouths. The Gyeonggi Corps reached eastward to the easternmost boundary of Lake Atoyak, and merged westward with Ezpan's 2nd Pike Corps. However, in a few days, more than 100 miles from the plain on the north bank of the lake, more than ten noble fiefs, plus the city of Kuramo... The entire eastern part of Zicao County, with a population of more than 70,000, has been controlled by Wang Jun.

Shirot nodded in satisfaction. He took the artillery all the way south, but there was no chance to use it at all. The rebellion in the east suddenly collapsed, and as soon as the flames were ignited, it was quickly suppressed by the samurai army. He praised Olosh a few words, and had a drink with his childhood teacher.

At noon on the second day, the Imperial Guard Corps guarded Wang Qi and entered the town of Zicao, while the artillery battalion remained outside the city. Veteran Etalic told the story of the rebellion in Kuramo City while taking the king into the city.

"You mean, the two thousand militiamen in the city, as well as thousands of Ding Zhuang, all participated in the rebellion? Was it coerced or voluntarily?"

Shilot stopped and stared at the deserted streets along the way. There are only samurai warriors on the streets, and scattered residents hiding in their houses.

"There is coercion, but more of it is voluntary."

Etalic said in a low voice.

"The Zicao family shouted inspiring slogans, saying that His Highness was assassinated, and the legions of various places rebelled. They want to restore the belief in the three gods and rebuild the Tarasco Kingdom. After the successful restoration of the country, everyone involved will be rewarded!"

Shilot was silent. After a while, he was sure to speak.

"There are too many remnants of the old dynasty in Zicao County. After this purge, it should be much better. The priests of the kingdom have already gone south to receive the reclaimed noble territories, organize households, and spread the faith of the Lord God. Wait until the old nobles change their ways. When we reach the Leman Hebei, the entire Shicao County will be brought under the direct control of the kingdom. By the autumn harvest next year at the latest, people's hearts will be greatly improved!"

"Your Highness is merciful!"

Etalic bowed his head and saluted. Then, with a solemn expression, he suggested.

"However, the city of Kuramo is openly rebellious, and the residents of the city must be severely punished. Only by engraving reverence into the bones of the people of the south can the spread of faith be multiplied with half the effort!"

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"The city of Kuramo and the feudal lands of Lithospermum, 20,000 people who participated in the rebellion or were related to the rebellion, were sent to the north, demoted to serfs, and awarded to nobles and warriors for military merit!"

Etalek looked at the thoughtful look on the king's face and said again.

"His Royal Highness, in this rebellion, half of the thousand Mexica warriors were killed! If there is no reverence, there is no grace. Enwei is a twin son. The Kuramo must be severely punished! What's more, according to the new promulgation According to the decree of the kingdom, serfs can get married. If the children of serfs are handed over to the village community and the government to raise, they are considered commoners. When the serfs have worked for ten years, they can restore their status as commoners again, and they can also receive a piece of land to live on. ."

Shuluo nodded, this decree is exactly what he instructed the sage to issue. The original proposal was that after five years of serf labor, they would be reinstated as commoners. As a result, as soon as these words came out, the major military nobles all came to meet His Highness and made a speech.

The sage has also carefully calculated to His Highness that only after ten years of hard work can a serf save money for the master to buy another serf in addition to supporting the military nobles. In other words, the military nobles hope that even if they do not participate in production, they can keep the wealth of their descendants from falling. Judging from the average life expectancy of this era, most adult serfs did not live beyond ten years.

Military nobles are the foundation of the king. Faced with such resistance, he could only temporarily compromise. When agricultural production technology improves and the kingdom becomes more prosperous and powerful, this decree will have to be revised again.

Thinking of this, Shilot made a decision.

"Etalic, as you say. Twenty thousand Kuramos were demoted to serfs and sent to the north!"

Then, the king shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Old Etaliq! You are guarding one side of the kingdom, and you are the administrator of Kuramo City. You are thinking of punishing all the subjects under your control?"

"Haha! Your Highness, painting in a blank space is much easier than tinkering!"

Etalek also shook his head with a wry smile.

"In the past two years, I have suffered a lot in the south! You have to bring in some commoners for me and add some priests. When the priests distribute the houses in the city, the new commoners will naturally be grateful!"

Shirot nodded with a smile and said nothing. While the two were chatting and laughing, the fate of 20,000 traitors was decided. Then, the king climbed to the pyramid in the center of the city with a solemn expression. Looking at the bloodstains that had not been cleaned up, he could imagine the ferocity of the battle at that time. The traces of the fighting stretched all the way to the top of the pyramid. There, the priest of Kuramo, Itri, had been waiting for a long time.

"Praise the Lord God! Greetings to you, Sect Leader of Shen Qi!"

"Praise the Lord God! Priest Yitri, you stood fearlessly in the city of Kuramo and made achievements for the Lord God. The Lord God will see your piety and give you grace!"

"Praise you!"

Yitri bowed his head, suppressing the excitement in his heart. With the king's words, he will have a bright future.

Shirot nodded with a smile, and shook the other's hair. Then, he sat down in the temple and asked about the details of the mission in the city.

"...Sect Master Priest, the Prepecha warriors in the Temple Guard who converted to the Lord God, all fought hard to the end, and no one defected or surrendered!"

Yicui replied respectfully.

"The faith of the common people in Zicao County is not yet pious, and there are too many false **** believers. Please give your will to allow Kuramo Diocese to increase the number of temple guards, establish a special search team, and arrest and deal with false **** believers. power!"

Hearing this, Shulot raised his brows. The city of Kuramo has just experienced a rebellion, and the addition of the Temple Guard is understandable. Only the power to arrest and dispose of false **** believers... This is equivalent to the right of religious inquisition! Although temples around the world will conduct some religious trials to deal with influential believers of the old gods, the scale is not large, and most of them are passively dealt with. Now, the priest in front of him, Itui, has the courage to propose to him to establish a trial team! This is equivalent to the predecessor of the Inquisition...

The king pondered for a long time. UU reading www.uukanshu. com He thought of the increasingly pressing time, and the balance in his heart gradually tilted to the left. After a while, the king looked solemn and finally nodded in agreement.

"Can."

"Praise the Lord God! Praise you!"

Excitement appeared on Etri's face. As one of the few commoner-born priests in the alliance, he finally found an opportunity to show his talents in the south of the Lake District!

"For the stubborn false **** believers determined by the judgment, do not execute them in private."

After thinking about it for a while, Shilot added.

"Gather it up and send it to the Chingambat mine, where there is a shortage of manpower. The formed trial team will first act in the area of ​​Kuramo. If they perform well and the faith of the Lord God is effectively spread, I will consider setting up a separate trial for betrayal. The long position is equal to the fourth-level chief priest."

"Praise you! Praise the Lord God!"

The third-level priest Yicui heard the implied meaning, and his heart shook. This is a real avenue to the sky! The path to the clergy of the common people usually stops at the third level, and then goes up, there are only a handful of fourth-level clergy, and they are often in charge of one party. And now, he has a unique opportunity...

"Sect Leader of Shen Qi, I must sacrifice my life for the glory of the Lord God!"

"Praise the Lord God! He protects you."

Shulot stared at the hummingbird sun in the temple and nodded calmly. He knew the power of the religious trial, and also knew the cruelty of the religious trial, but he decided to let the beast out. Because, after the assassination, the king's heart finally took the last step.

Veteran Etalik was silent. He vaguely felt that a terrifying force was sprouting. After a while, he put his hand deep into his arms, took out a stack of documents, and handed it to the king.

"His Royal Highness, these are the secret letters of the Zicao family, and they are related to many Prepecha generals!"
