Chapter 509: The Eastern Expedition of the Northern Route Army, the song of the samurai

The night fell, and a large bonfire was lit; the bamboo flute was blown, accompanied by singing far away. The aroma of food wafted far away, and the cheers of samurai roared in the camp. The main business of the entire Mexican Northern Route Army stretches for several miles, and the joy and celebration after the victory is everywhere!

Avit was wearing a royal suit, sitting cross-legged in the tent, still holding the divine scepter in his hand. He watched all the legion commanders celebrate, chat and laugh, and his heart was relaxed and comfortable. The conquests of the past few months flashed in his mind, and scenes poured into his mind, as clear as before.

In December, the Union of Mexica launched a war of gods and devoted all its troops to the battle.

Wearing royal clothes, Avit held the expedition ceremony of the Eastern Expedition on the square in front of the Great Temple. The elders sat on the pergola and briefly attended, accepting the kneeling salute of the chiefs of the states. Later, in the cheers of the people of the capital city, Avit officially worshipped the ancestors, prayed to the Lord God, and announced the beginning of the Eastern Expedition!

The army came out from the east, shaking the four fields, all the ministries in the world panicked, and the Tlaxcala people shrank in an all-round way!

An army of 80,000 North Road troops, five royal legions, four city-state legions, and an elite militia regiment headed northeast one by one. Then, ten legions gradually unfolded and poured into the southeast of Atotonik State to engage with the Tlaxcalans in turn.

In this era, due to the limitations of logistics and combat methods, it is impossible for so many legions to be crowded on the same battlefield, and they must be divided into multiple paths.

In mid-January, the giant bear Stanley led a royal army, an elite militia, a total of 16,000 soldiers, and six condor cannons to attack the city, and they were the first to divide their troops south. They are responsible for attacking the most dangerous gods in the mountains in the south.

Shensuoguan is the key gateway to the western hinterland of the Tlaxcalans, the state of Vesochinko. It occupies a dangerous place in the mountains and isolates the north and south mountain roads. It is not a single fortress, but a group of fortresses composed of dozens of fortresses. However, due to the limitations of the terrain, it was impossible to deploy a large army in front of the gate of the gods, and only a thousand people could be attacked, and a maximum of two legions was the limit.

At the beginning of February, Avit led eight legions and continued eastward. The main force of the northern army attacked the border fortress of the Tlaxcalans, and then captured the ancient city of Hot Springs.

Hot Spring City is located in the northeast of the capital city in the lake, only more than 200 miles away, and the logistical pressure of the army is not great. Fifty or sixty miles to the south from here, is a towering mountain range extending east to west. The mountains are blocked, and the army cannot pass through it. And Tlaxcala, the most important of the four-state alliance, is just behind the mountains.

To cross the mountains, you must pass through the mountain pass. The east-west mountain range extends for more than a hundred miles before a flat mountain pass to the south appears, leading to the hinterland of Tlaxcala. At the mountain pass, two rivers meet, and there is a strong and strong city, which is the northernmost Feathered Snake City among the Four Snake Cities.

Avit did not rush south, but stayed in Hot Springs for a few days, waiting for the various legions to arrive. A hundred miles to the north from here are the already unstable Vasteks; three hundred miles to the east are the Totonaks who are on alert and mobilizing.

In mid-February, Avett split up again. He sent Kassar, the reactivated commander, with four city-state legions, totaling 32,000 warriors and militias, to advance eastward around Feathered Serpent and suppress the Tlaxcala army in the north.

After being silent for many years, Kasar finally won the king's trust and was revived. He has become low-key, and is very respectful to the king. Casal served as the commander of the Mexica for many years and fought against the Tlaxcalans several times. He was not only familiar with the command of the army, but also very familiar with the enemy's tactics. At the same time, he is from the Glory family in the capital city, with profound qualifications, he can suppress the heads of various states, and is the best candidate for commander-in-chief.

Afterwards, Avet personally led the last four royal legions, 32,000 royal warriors, to the reed city in the north, and coerced the southern divisions of Vastek.

Tens of thousands of Mexican legions approached quickly, and all Vastec divisions were terrified. The king sent messengers all the way to Crow City, which is five hundred miles east of the capital city in the lake, and more than three hundred miles east of Weijian City, the southern ancestral land of the Vastek people.

As the suzerain, Avit asked the leaders of the various southern ministries of Vastek to come to meet and provide some food for the army!

The so-called Crow City is the gathering place of the Vastec tribes in the east by the sea, Papantra, which is the "land surrounded by crows". This is a densely populated and very rich town. It is located in the lowland jungle, with a humid and hot climate, suitable for growing spices, especially delicious vanilla beans!

Hearing the call of the King of Mexica, the leaders of the southern ministries of Vastec quarreled for days and hesitated. The otter city in the northern ancestral land is fighting with the dog descendants going south, and it is simply unable to support the southern ministries.

In the end, the leaders finally reluctantly reached an agreement under the persuasion of the southern Vastek leader, Papata the "Silver Crow". With their personal guards and food, they came to Shuqiang Town, Huaugo and Huaqinango, dozens of miles east of Weijian City, to visit the titular suzerain, the Mexican Dynasty.

In the spacious wooden house, Avet sat high on the throne and accepted the kneeling salute of many leaders. He was expressionless, indifferent, and spoke to the crowd.

"This is Huachinango, a place with lush trees like walls and beautiful scenery. And in our Nahua language, 'Huachinango' has another meaning, which is 'red snapper' in the Great Eastern Lake. The priests of the capital once told me that the red snapper is like a tribe on the east coast. A male red snapper will be surrounded by many female red snapper, forming a considerable school. The fish is the leader of the tribe, and the female snapper are the tribe's warriors who obey the leader."

Hearing this, the heads of the Vastec divisions were surprised and a little uneasy in their hearts. They have lived in the lowland jungle for a long time, close to the Great Eastern Lake, and have also eaten delicious red silk fish. When it comes to the habits of this fish, they know much more than the Mexicans.

"For a school of red snappers, if the lead male red snapper dies, his 'wives' swim around him sadly. ', it will turn from a female to a male! He will lead the entire school of fish again, as the leader of the tribe, as the head of the family, leading many 'wives', and start a new life!"

Avit said this, with a slight smile on his face, but revealed a god-like chill.

"The male red snapper dies, his tribe will not avenge him, only a new male red snapper will be born... And if you die, the Vastek warriors under your command will not avenge you either! Instead, they will elect a new leader who will inherit everything from you!"

"Ah! This, the venerable King of Mexica... This, we are all tribal leaders loyal to you!..."

Hearing the king's words, the southern leaders of the Vastek people panicked, fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

Only "Silver Crow" Papata thought about it for a while, knelt down and shouted respectfully.

"The supreme king of Mexica, our silver crow tribe, is willing to join the army of the kingdom of Mexica and participate in the war against the Tlaxcalans! We are willing to gather tribal warriors, travel through the vast rainforest, and harass Toto in the east for you Nak people!"

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Avit's expression moved. He took a deep look at Papata "Silver Crow" before shaking his head lightly.

"Eastern Totonaks, if they dare to send troops, they will be wiped out by the army of the alliance. As for you, the kingdom is indeed useful."

Avit smiled, his expression became gentle, and he said calmly.

"Bring your own guards, stay here, and stay with the Mexican Legion in Treewall Town!"

As a result, the Vastek leaders of the southern ministries "voluntarily" stayed here to guard the town of Treewall for the Mexica suzerain. Avett left another royal legion, "protecting" the Vastek leaders, while suppressing the northern part of the alliance. And the food of the Vasteks also continued to pay tribute.

Everything is arranged properly, the army is about to go south. Before heading south, Avit summoned Papata the "Silver Crow" alone and had a secret conversation for a long time. Afterwards, he also bestowed a golden sun talisman and a bag of turquoise from the Kingdom of the Lake as a reward for the "Silver Crow".

At the beginning of March, after Avit settled the Vastek people in the north, he finally led three royal legions and headed south from Weedjian City. At this time, Kassar had led four city-state legions to fight against the northern legion behind the Tlaxcalans, beheading a thousand warriors and crushing thousands of militia.

The main force of the Tlaxcala army ~www.readwn.com~ kept shrinking southwards, retreating to the core of the Four Snakes City. Kasar first controlled the western and northern areas of Feathered Serpent City, established a stable camp, built trebuchets, and blocked the surrounding area of ​​Feathered Serpent City. Then, he dispatched a large number of scouts to detect the movements of the enemy, waiting for the arrival of the king's main force.

In the middle of March, Avit took the army and came to Feathered Serpent City. Seven alliance legions spread out near Feathered Serpent City, covering more than ten miles of wilderness, completely controlling the west, north and east sides of Feathered Serpent City. The only support channel for the Tlaxcalans was to pass through the south side of the river and cross the river to supply supplies to the city.

At the end of March, Avit divided an elite royal army, including two battalions of bronze armored warriors and two battalions of longbow warriors, across the shallow river in the south, the Atenko River. This legion fought with the reinforcements of the Tlaxcalans, and then surrounded the south side of Feathered Serpent City, cutting off the support of the other three snake cities. At this point, Feathered Serpent City was surrounded on all sides by the Mexican army, cut off supplies, and became an isolated city...

"Ah! Behold the mortal gods,

please tell me...

Who are the descendants of the gods?

Who is the real warrior?

"

The bonfire is raging, illuminating the faces of countless joy; the night wind is warm, blowing the battle clothes of thousands of warriors. At this moment, tens of thousands of Mexica warriors gathered in the camp. They ate tortillas and sang warrior songs, full of pride and power to conquer!

Arvet straightened up and listened. But for a moment, a sincere smile appeared on his face. This song is proud and firm, full of vitality. It is like a thriving Metasequoia, and it is like the backbone of a Mexica, standing straight and high, without bending at all! Click to download this site APP, massive novels, free to read!
