Aztec Eternals

Chapter 666: East, West, North and South, an ever-expanding kingdom!

The vines are overgrown and the grass is lush. The migratory birds start their journey north, and the cardinals roar happily for their mates. It's a picture of spring, and the Tlaxcala Plateau is full of life. Birds and beasts rejoiced in the sparsely populated basin, they traveled all the way west, singing happily. It was not until they bumped into the continuous camp, met the patrolling Mexican scouts, and the bone arrows they hunted hit with precision, they let out their dying screams and became the fragrant meat of the warriors at night.

"Good! The meat is crisp and tender, neither greasy nor fishy. Delicate and pure fragrance, unique taste, fresh and long-lasting. After a long aftertaste, it is really top game!"

The smoke rose from the tree snake city camp, it was dinner time. Selot sat cross-legged in the tent, tasting the geese carefully cooked by the chefs. He stretched out the taiko, added a piece of goose meat, and chewed it slowly in his mouth, showing satisfaction on his face.

This goose meat is very tender, similar to broiler chicken, but more chewy and fragrant. The prey was hunted by the scouts at noon, and in the afternoon, they were deodorized with spices, marinated with sea salt, and then simmered in a copper pot over low heat, and then chili peppers were added to stir-fry until fragrant. Then rush it to the king's table in the evening, which will ensure enough freshness.

"Smelling the fragrance of wild goose, the gods want to break their hearts."

The aroma is diffused in the tent, and the aroma of wine and fruit is blended. Shulot ate fresh goose meat, drank tequila, and then ate a soft tamale, and tasted some sweet dried fruit. Finally, he took a long breath of relief and waved the dinner to be taken down. Then, another maid sent refreshing tea, ignited the refreshing incense, and then massaged the king's head. It was a decadent aristocratic life.

The aroma of the food dissipated from the ceiling, and the comforting incense rose again in the tent, which also meant that the short-lived pleasures came to an end. Xiuluot sat cross-legged, straightened his spine, looked solemn, and began to deal with the reports of the states.

"Okay! Five days ago, the black wolf had captured Wushan City, captured 20,000 prisoners, and accommodated 3,000 soldiers!"

The first document was the good news from the black wolf Toltec, three or four hundred miles to the east. Shirott looked at the crooked words and pictures on the document, the corners of his mouth twitched. The artillery battalion of the Praetorian Guard has been temporarily handed over to the Black Wolf Legion under the leadership of Battalion Commander Tupa. Tupa was originally a guard of Toltec, and the two sides cooperated tacitly. The artillery battalion arrived in less than ten days, and it broke through the western town of the Totonaks, Wushan City.

"After a few months, the Southern Route Army has captured 30,000 Tlaxcala, the old and weak, and another 30,000 Totonak Dingzhuang. Add in the 20,000 here, and that's another 80,000."

Sherlot found Bertard's letter a few days ago, flipped through it, and nodded.

The Tuntian camp outside Shuidu City has been prepared, and the 50,000-60,000 prisoners in the early stage are divided into camps under the management of priests and warriors. There were 2,000 Tlaxcalans who settled in the field last year in the camp. On the one hand, they appease the hearts of the captives.

In short, the operation of Tuntian has become orderly and the digestion is strong. It opened its hungry mouth and waited for more captives!

"When the Five Mountains came down, the Totonaks lost their western barrier, and the wealthy seaside land opened its doors. The coastal states of Totonak will be shaken! At this moment, I am afraid that the envoys of the coastal states are all in On the way to Trochititlan, the capital of the lake. And the coalition of the various states will be truly formed.”

Shulot unfolded the map, pointed his finger to the east, and walked eastward from the plundered valley of the Five Mountains City, through the lowland hills for one or two hundred miles, and arrived at the coast of Totonak. And here, various parts of Totonak are scattered around the city-states, and there are tens of thousands of them!

"From Wushan City to the east, one hundred and fifty miles to the east is the Holy Land Feathered Snake Ancient City, and more than two hundred miles to the southeast is the prosperous Jinwan City... Heilang requested to continue to sweep eastward and arrest more s population!"

Shirot stretched out his finger and rubbed the unfolded world map for a while. The east coast had never been so close before his eyes! This "accidental" military operation happened very suddenly and quickly reached a climax.

"Nominally, the Totonaks are the vassals of the Alliance. And this crusade is to punish the god-born nobles who accepted the Tlaxcalans. After more than two months of war, the Black Wolf branched out and captured the fortress. The city of Five Mountains sacrificed the gods and nobles in the city. After receiving such shocking news, the states of Totonak will certainly mobilize a large number of militias to defend, form a tribal coalition, and at the same time send messengers for peace to the capital city in the lake. .."

Shulot tapped the ebony eucalyptus, deducing the development of the situation. Two months ago, he had reported the conflict on the eastern frontier to King Avet. The king was noncommittal, maintaining a tacit attitude. But according to some secretly sent letters, the target of the alliance's next expedition must be the Mistec and Zapotec who directly rebelled in the Eastern Expedition.

"After all, the alliance has many vassals, and the Totonak people did not openly rebel against the alliance. In order to appease the hearts of the many vassal tribes, when the envoys of the Totonak states arrived in the capital city in the lake, they cried around, fell down and promised more tribute. Fu... The king's mediation will, I am afraid it will arrive in one month! And within two or three months, this 'accidental' military expedition should end in time!"

"Just take it as soon as you see it. You can't really use a single division to go on an expedition for thousands of miles and attack more than 800,000 Totonak tribes... Oh, after the fall of Wushan City, there should be only more than 70 Totonak tribes. Thousands of people."

Thinking of this, Shirot made a clear decision in his heart.

"In two or three months, the black wolf must gain a firm foothold on the eastern coast! With this foothold, the kingdom can build ships along the coast and project more warriors to the eastern Maya and Cuba! This foothold needs to be captured..."

Xiulote stretched out his finger and wandered between Feathered Serpent Ancient City and Jinwan City for a long time, thinking about the balance.

Which city-state was weaker in defense? There is no doubt that it is the ancient city of Feather Snake. The ancient city of Feather Serpent is a religious city-state, attracting believers from all ministries, and it is also an open market city-state. It has no walls, just a simple wooden fence. Jinwan City, on the other hand, has low stone walls and is a central town similar to the Five Mountains City.

Which city-state has the smaller army? It is still the ancient city of Feather Snake. The number of tribes in each state should be similar, but the Jinwan City area is more prosperous, and the tribes are slightly better. Also, it's closer to the east and gets more clan reinforcements.

Militarily, the answer is obvious. But from a human point of view, the ancient city of the Feathered Serpent is the western holy land of the Totonak people. It is said that the Feathered Serpent City goes out to sea and crosses the east! The capture of this place means that the kingdom of the lake and the god-born nobles of Totonak, regardless of the east or west, have completely forged a great feud!

Facing thousands of fierce kingdom warriors, the Totonaks of the west could only grit their teeth and endure. And if the expedition fleet of hundreds of people returned, it stopped in the city-state of the Totonaks in the east. At that time, what will happen to the gods who are hostile to the nations...

"Huh! I don't know where the kingdom's expedition fleet went? It's been more than four months, and it must have arrived in Maya, but have they found Cuba?"

In the tent, there are birds and birds, the moonlight falls from the zenith, and the night is exceptionally bright. Shilot stood up and looked at the eastern sky, thinking about the expedition fleet that would go to sea, just like thinking about a kite with a broken line. In this era, sailing at sea is always the test of life and death. However, the era of great voyages has kicked off, linking the whole world together!

"Great Voyage... Feathered Serpent Ancient City... Feathered Serpent God..."

After a while, Shirott thought of something, and his expression became sharp. Killing intent appeared in his eyes, he turned around and sat back, his fingers dropped heavily, and clicked on the ancient city of Feather Serpent. Then, he picked up the pen and wrote, using the most common words, to give the black wolf an order.

"Black Wolf, you've captured Wushan City and captured tens of thousands of prisoners. I'm very happy! When you come back, you can ask for any reward you want. But you have to continue to fight eastward. Within two months, give it to me. Kill to the seaside and take down the ancient city of Feathered Serpent! Those ancient Feathered Serpent priests and god-born nobles, don't leave a single one behind!"

Writing this, Shirlot lowered his eyes slightly. This simple sentence announced that thousands of people's heads fell to the ground. But the spread of belief is always accompanied by blood and fire, and unifying the world also means brutal killing. Now, it is the end of the Warring States in Central America and the beginning of the era of great sailing!

"Let go and do it, clean up the upper layers of the ancient city of Feather Serpent! I'm here in the alliance, I'll give you the bottom line. When you get down to the ancient city of Feather Serpent, don't destroy it, keep the temple and the city wall, and station the defense on the spot. Yes. Counterattack, you can continue to capture prisoners, but do not further capture the city-state of the Totonak people, triggering a full-scale mobilization of all ministries... King Avet is likely to intervene. As for the specific situation, it will be clear when the envoy of the alliance arrives. !"

"And if you capture tens of thousands of prisoners, you don't need to transfer them all back. You take the legion to station on the spot, and let the prisoners farm the fields, cut down trees, and dry the wood... The boatmen of the kingdom will be ready in two or three months. It will come from the east. The kingdom will establish a new shipbuilding division on the coast of the East China Sea to build long ships that can cross the sea as soon as possible.”

After writing this, Shirot pondered for a while. He turned his head and looked towards the south, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but he still wrote.

"Black Wolf, you need to establish a firm foothold on the eastern coast and operate patiently for several months. The eastern coast is more than 600 miles away from the tree snake city camp, and everything is up to you to make your own decisions! If the food supply is insufficient, Go to the Silver Crow Tribe in Crow City in the north and ask for support. After the autumn harvest, Bertard will lead his troops east and replace you!"

After Shurot wrote the long letter, he pressed the seal and handed it to the captain of the guard, Eckart. Eckart skillfully sealed the Wang Ling, and then handed the letter to Shanpao's guards. The guards hid the letter in their battle clothes, and then, under the **** of a team of twenty warriors, ran to the east overnight. They would travel 80 miles a day, and within five days, they would arrive at the foot of Wushan City. And this is already the fastest messenger in the kingdom!

"With the current level of communication, if it exceeds four or five hundred miles, and it takes more than ten days to go back and forth, the power must be delegated... And if it is further away, it is eight or nine hundred miles away, and all the ministries can only govern themselves! As for Maya, which is three thousand miles away, Five thousand miles away in Cuba..."

Xiulott's thoughts drifted far away, his expression gloomy. After a while, his thoughts returned, thinking of the wasteland a thousand miles away.

At this moment, Qingqiu County established by Otomi Palms State is under the autonomy of Poet County Yin Balamo, and there is only one back-and-forth communication for two months. According to Baramo's latest letter, he has formed a tribal army of 8,000 people, attacking all over the wasteland, and subduing the canine tribe migrating south. He also sent two thousand tribal warriors, led by Red Cat Chief Mizli, to quietly go east to join the raiding team of the Red Crow Tribe, and go south to plunder the northern tribes of the Vasteks.

However, Qingqiu County has insufficient food, poor land, and a low level of development. It cannot raise too many full-time warriors, and must obtain the support of the southern kingdom.

After the New Year, the poet Baramo went to Hekou County in the south, sending four or five thousand bitter dog tribes, and exchanged a large amount of food from the monkey Kuluka, as well as hundreds of armors and thousands of spears. . The monkeys added these 4,000 to 5,000 canine descendants to each flag team, and backhanded more than a thousand tribal warriors.

At the beginning of February, Monkey Kuluka dispatched another 4,000 spear warriors, and mobilized 8,000 canine militia groups, and they went to the lower Chapala Lake area to loot. In the north, there were 20,000 tribal warriors from the Guamal breed, and they went south. The two sides, one north and one east, attacked from both sides, looted and robbery, fierce flames and waves. Prince Feather was forced to retreat to the southwest in an all-round way, abandoning the north and east of the Chapala Lake, and only relying on rivers and lakes to defend with difficulty.

The letter that just arrived was the battle report of the monkey Kuluka. The looting of the legion and the trade with the Guamal dog descended, and 20,000 young men and women from Prepecha were robbed and prepared to be placed in the farmland in the middle of the county.

"His Royal Highness! After repeated expeditions, Hekou County was prosperous, with a population of 2.89 million. Seeing that in just a few years, it will be restored to the peak of 300,000 people before the Western Expedition. And the steady stream of spoils , also from the east and west battlefields, flowed into various towns and villages, and enriched the flag teams of the dog descendants. If you return to Hekou County, you will be surprised!"

After reading Monkey's letter, Shiroute smiled. The prosperity of Hekou County is naturally based on the decline of the Chapala Lake District. The monkey Kuluka went to loot again and again, echoing with the Guamal people, making Prince Feather stumped and unable to resist. UU reading www.uukanshu.com After a few years, although there has been no war, the Chapala Lake District has been like a bare dead tree. The branches have been cut down with an axe, leaving only the last dead wood.

"As long as the kingdom mobilizes three legions to fight along the Leman River, it will be able to completely eat this ripe fruit in the Chapala Lake District! However, I can't hand over the great achievements of such conquest to others. Lead yourself!"

Shirot looked at the map of the kingdom and fell into deep thought. Conquering the Chapala Lake District is easy, but it is more difficult than war to establish the rule of a kingdom across 600 miles, requiring a lot of human and material resources!

"Huh, the wasteland of thousands of miles in the north, the distant seashore in the east, the lower reaches of the Leman River in the west, and the mouth of the Tulsa River in the south... The hand of the kingdom has been stretched too long, and it is too long to make a fist. And I, am I right? Too greedy, too eager?"

Shirot reflected on himself, and looked to the south of the kingdom again. The fertile Apa Plain for thousands of miles and the Tulsatian waterway that stretches for 2,000 miles are the focus of the kingdom's efforts. At this moment, in order to consolidate the interior of the kingdom, establish faster connections, and stabilize the foundation of the kingdom's long-term rule... A new construction plan is already on the tip of his pen!
