Aztec Eternals Chapter 664

In the beginning of April, the meaning of spring is born. The sea breeze brings warmth, and migratory birds migrate to the north. The kingdom's expedition fleet, starting from Wei Village, one hundred and twenty miles to the east, is the town of Crocodile near the coast, which belongs to the Cheer theocracy.

"The theocratic chiefdom of Che'er is a small clan with tens of thousands of people. The reason why it is called the chiefdom of theocracy is because the leader of the Cheer clan was originally the sun **** priest and elder of the Mayapan Kingdom, who was in the Shiwu family. During the rebellion, they fled to the northern jungle and established a clan chiefdom. And every military and political leader of the Chell clan is also the chief priest of the chiefdom."

Ticarlo sat on the bottom of the dark cabin, with both hands and feet tied, with a kind smile on his face. He looked at Priest Thomas and the old militiaman Chihuaco in front of him and spoke patiently.

"The population of the Cheer clan is close to 100,000. Although it is smaller than the four major forces, it is still strong on the loose northern coast. The clan's ruling center is in the city of Tianshui (Izamal), which is eighty miles south, that is, "God-given" The place where the dew falls from the sky" is also a religious ancient city inherited from the golden age."

"Because the original clan leaders were the priests and elders revered by the kingdom, they were naturally hostile to the Shiu family who launched rebellion, subverted the order, and destroyed the power of the priests and elders, and were friendly with the Kapoor family. As for our Cocom royal family, we are closely related to them. Allies. This time the tribe went north to borrow a road from their territory to get supplies."

Hearing this, Priest Tomat and Chiwako looked at each other and nodded slightly. Tikalo glanced at him and suggested with a smile.

"Respected two leaders, I am familiar with the local god-born nobles, why don't you let me come..."

"Dark Serpent, Didi."

Hearing the detailed information, Chiwako did not hesitate to point to the Mayan businessman sitting on the ground and instructed in a deep voice.

"seal!"

"what?"

The ears of the two teenagers were stuffed with cotton, so they couldn't hear clearly. The dark snake was stunned for a moment, but Didi reacted immediately, took out a ball of yellowed cotton cloth, and stuffed it into the mouth of Tikaro, who smiled bitterly.

"Watch him!"

"what?"

Seeing the dazed two people, the old militiaman shook his head. He pointed to the Mayan merchant, and then to the two teenagers. In the face of their sudden realization, Priest Tomat smiled and said.

"Captain Qi, let's go!"

"Um."

When the two boarded the deck, the sea and the sky instantly widened. The fresh sea breeze comes from the pavement, making people feel comfortable.

"This time, let Puap stay on the boat, and I'll disembark with you."

The old militiaman looked at the town on the coast and said leisurely.

"There is no shortage of water on the boat, just add some food. We will go early and return early, and leave on the same day."

"it is good!"

Priest Tommat nodded in satisfaction. He thought about it and added.

"The translation this time will use the captured Toltec survivor, Ustor. He should have no problem with daily conversations."

"Okay! That Ustor is not very brave, so there should be no problem."

The old militiaman thought for a moment and agreed. The two leaders bowed their heads at the same time and prayed sincerely.

"Blessed by the Lord! May the fleet go smoothly!"

The sun rises and sets, and everyone is in a hurry. The old militia commanded the sailors and replenished the supplies on board. Priest Tomat met the god-born nobles in the town, told the divine revelation prophecy, and left a gift of gems, and left in a hurry.

Then, the expedition fleet set off again. The further east you go, the thicker the jungle along the coast becomes, with large swamps scattered among the forests. If there is no guide, such terrain will simply kill people. The fleet traveled eastward for two hundred and fifty miles before arriving at the next large village for supplies, Huoyan Village.

Fire Salt Village is the ruling center of Chijin Chiefdom. Yes, the largest settlement in this chiefdom is a coastal village. As the name suggests, this is the most important salt producing area on the northern coast. There are many small lagoons along the coast of Huoyan Village. The lake water is connected with the sea water. It has been evaporated by sunlight over the years and accumulated into a highly concentrated salt lake. As long as the mouth of the small salt lake is blocked, there are many natural salt drying fields.

This coastal area is the largest salt producer on the entire peninsula. The emergence of the Chijin chiefdom is that the coastal tribes allied with each other in order to defend the huge profits of the Salt Lake to defend against the various clans in the south. The land along the coast is barren after all, and the Chijin chiefdom mainly obtains food supplements through the salt trade. Similarly, the tribes here do not need to spend a lot of time farming, and they are constantly fighting with various tribes that covet the salt production area. The folk customs are both united and fierce.

"The Chijin Chiefdom is a tribal alliance on the coast, with a population of tens of thousands. There is no leader in charge of each department, and more of the various departments watch and help each other. They also believe in the **** of war, the patron saint of merchants, and Aike Quwa. The Chijin chiefdom is also the friendliest. As for the 'fire' in the fire salt, it refers to the hundreds of red flamingos on the shore!"

There was no sunlight for many days, and Ticarlo's face was pale. His expression remained calm, and he still gently explained the various forces.

"The Kapoor clan in the southern inland have coveted the Chijin chiefdom, which produces salt along the coast, for a long time. However, the Chijin chiefdom is quite united and its people are sturdy. They got rich through trade, and they don't need to put a lot of money into farmland, just With 60,000 or 70,000 people, tens of thousands of tribal warriors can be mobilized to guard the salt pond. They also control the salt supply of various states, and their weapons and equipment are not weak."

"The Kapoor clan is hostile to the Shiu clan, unable to go north with full force, and without full confidence, they have always maintained peace with the Chijin Chiefdom. A member of the clan. On the other hand, they also secretly instigated the vassal Tais clan to send troops from Kulubá to raid and plunder the eastern salt fields of the Chijin chiefdom, consuming each other's strength.”

Speaking of this, Tikalo looked solemn, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and his face was wary of the Kapoor clan.

"To this day, there has been a rift between the eastern and western tribes of Chijin Chiefdom. The Kapoor family is very patient, like water snakes that devour beavers, slowly invading Chijin Chiefdom. If they are given decades In time, they have a good chance of annexing the coastal Chijin chiefdom and the vassal Tais clan at the same time. At that time, with the income of Yanchi, the Kapoor family will leap up, surpass the Shiu family and become the most powerful on the peninsula. A mighty force!"

"It turned out to be such a situation!"

Priest Tomat listened patiently and thoughtfully. It sounds like the Chikin Chiefdom is a wealthier, smaller Puton clan. I don't know if there is any chance to spread the fire of the Lord God here.

"Tikalo, the tribal leaders of Huoyan Village, worship the patron saint of merchants, Eke. Are their beliefs pious?"

Hearing this, Ticarlo pondered for a while, and knew it in his heart. He pondered a little and explained.

"Respected priest Tomat, the Chijin chiefdom believes in many gods, and they don't mind worshipping one more god. But the main **** of their tribes must be one of the sun **** and the patron saint of merchants."

"The sun god? The sun **** of the Cheer theocracy?"

Hearing this, Priest Thomas raised his brows. He was keenly aware of something, so he asked carefully.

"There are also missionary priests from other tribes here?"

"Exactly!"

Tikalo nodded heavily.

"The Sun Lord God worshipped by the Cheer theocracy was originally another face of the Serpent God Intesumna. But after the division of the Mayapan Kingdom, in order to draw a line with the Serpent Lord God believed by the Shiu family, Kapoor Both the clan and the Chere chiefdom worship the sun god. The hostility between the two sides extends from territory and politics to the gods of faith.”

"And the Cheer theocracy, working hand in hand with the Kapoor clan, has also continued to spread the belief in the sun **** among the western divisions of the Chijin chiefdom. The rift between the eastern and western divisions of the Chijin chiefdom has gradually widened. The kingdom wants to To spread the glory of the Lord God here is to fight against Kapoor, Chel, and Qijin at the same time... I'm afraid it still needs an opportunity!"

Hearing the secrets of the various ministries, Priest Tomat rubbed his eyebrows and felt a little troubled. The kingdom of Mayapan was shattered into pieces, and the intrigue between the various ministries emerged one after another. And these Mayan gods who have passed down for thousands of years, possessed writing and mathematics, are obviously more complex than the various tribes in the plateau, and they have played well in all aspects.

"This 800-mile lowland Maya is really like a melee ant nest! To clean it up completely, only tens of thousands of alliance troops will come from the sea and launch a war of gods to kill thousands of gods!"

Priest Thomas was secretly fierce, but his face remained calm. It is a pity that the distance here is too far from the alliance, and the jungle environment is very difficult, and the logistics of the army cannot be maintained at all. For a long time, the Alliance had to compromise and cooperate with the Mayan ministries.

"Unless... there is an irresistible force that completely breaks the supremacy of the Mayan gods, and sweeps away these intertwined nobles and priests who have inherited family beliefs for thousands of years..."

Two steps away, the old militiaman was also lost in thought. Ticarlo glanced at him quietly, his face was pale, his expression adjusted to weakness, and he pleaded in a low voice.

"Respected Captain Chiwako, please let me go out and get some air! The Kapoor clan is in Huoyan Village, and there is a caravan leader specializing in buying salt, usually an important member of the clan. The Kapoor clan is hostile to the Shiu family, It is a natural ally of the kingdom. If you want to communicate with the Kapoor clan, I can be a translator and link..."

Hearing this, the old militiaman raised his brows. He looked at Priest Thomas and asked in a low voice.

"Is the fleet going to contact the Kapoor clan?"

"Um..."

Priest Tommat touched his chin and was silent. After a while, he thought of his encounter with the guardian clan of Kanur, made up his mind, and looked at the old militia again.

"Captain Qi, what do you think?"

"Well... two mountain leopards faced off in the jungle, with a group of local dogs beside them. We killed a mountain leopard's cub, and the other mountain leopard, what will happen to us?"

The old militiaman thought about it and asked with a smile.

"Will they take the initiative to come forward and form an alliance with us?"

"Haha! It depends on what we are."

Hearing the question from the old militia, Priest Tommat smiled knowingly.

"If there are 8,000 warriors in the fleet, we are an unbeatable black bear, and the Kapoor clan will come forward and make an alliance. If there are 2,000 warriors in the fleet, we will be the strongest in the jungle. The jaguar can also deter all the ministries and gain the upper hand in communication..."

"But now, we only have more than 200 sailors, more than 200 soldiers, and dozens of wounded among them. Even if the kingdom's equipment has an advantage, it can't offset the military strength gap by several times."

Thinking of the wounded on the ship, the old militia glared at Tikalo again. The Mayan merchant shrank his neck, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the old militiaman stretch out his hand, and the figures on both sides moved. Then, a ball of drool-filled, sour yellow cotton cloth was stuffed into his mouth again.

"Um...uuuuuu!"

The old militiaman looked away, not looking at the struggling old fox. He thought about it for a while, and definitely came to a conclusion.

"The only people who really know the strength of the alliance are Tikalo and the Maya Pan remnants behind him. Therefore, in the eyes of the Mayan tribes in the lowlands, we are now just kestrels flying from the west. Although we fly fast, we may not be able to fight a battle. An ordinary dog, not to mention a mountain leopard in the jungle!"

"Yes! Without strength, there is no basis for an alliance. Even if an alliance is formed, you will be oppressed by the other party, demand benefits, and even act as cannon fodder!"

Priest Thomas raised the corners of his mouth, feeling like he was a confidant. Fortunately, there is an old militia in the fleet. If there are two Puaps, this time the exploration... Priest Tomat secretly shook his head and made a decision with a smile.

"If that's the case, then we won't stay here any longer! After a little supply, we will go to Shahu Town, which is two hundred miles to the east! After Shahu Town, it is the last berth of the lowland Maya, Ekab Port! , is the Cuban Snake Island in the East China Sea! God bless!"

"Good! The Lord God bless!"

The two leaders of the fleet bowed their heads again and prayed sincerely. Seeing the expressions of the two bowing their heads in prayer, Ticarlo lowered his eyes and became quiet. He sighed lowly, both helpless and relieved.

"Hey! If you use the kingdom's gems as a benefit and the kingdom's military force as a guarantee, and use the Kecom family as a communication link, ally the Kanur guardian clan, the Kapoor clan, and the Cheer theocracy, and send troops to the Xiu family together... .If this happens, under the restraint of various forces, the Kecom family will not become the puppet of the kingdom or any party!...It's just...that's all..."

Tikalo shook his head and thought no more. He knew that the kingdom fleet would withdraw from the vortex of the Mayan tribes and continue to complete the route of exploration. And this, for the remnants of Mayapan, is a long wait and patience.

The spring breeze is warm and the greenery is lush. The kingdom's fleet continued to set sail, traveled two hundred miles, stopped at Shahu Town, traded gems, and preached the prophecy of divine revelation.

This is already the territory of the Ekab Chiefdom Alliance, and more than a dozen scattered city-states, under the leadership of the Yandao Holy Land, form a loose defensive alliance. They have no ambition to expand, their power is distributed in the easternmost part of the peninsula, and the important city-states are all along the coast. The inland territory of the chiefdom is mostly sparsely populated and lush jungles.

The Ekab chiefdom is geographically isolated, detached from the various ministries, and there are few battles with the ministries. When the fleet was in Honghu Town, what they saw was a peaceful scene of caravans and endless trade. Here, too, the convoy found a local fleet of Mayan galleys, apparently carrying the smoke from the eastern Cuba, and even Taino-looking sailors.

It's just that these Mayan fleets are a little wary when they see the long ships of the kingdom coming from the east. They inquired about the origin and whereabouts of the kingdom's fleet, and traded gems with tobacco, but never mentioned the Cuban Snake Island, where the tobacco came from.

After the old militia discussed with Priest Thomas, they also reached an agreement, not to disclose the fleet's sailing goal, but to trade tobacco. The two sides completed the transaction in suspicion, and then the local Mayan merchants, in the eyes of suspicion, watched the fleet set sail again to the northeast port of the peninsula, the port of Ekab.

Two days later, the Kingdom's fleet maintained its physical strength and traveled more than a hundred miles to reach the last supply point, Ekab Port. This is a small seaside port, and various supplies are relatively expensive, but they are very sufficient. The sailors and warriors of the fleet finally got the opportunity to go ashore and make good repairs.

The old militia Chihuaco also found a nearby Mayan village and placed thirty or forty wounded from the kingdom's fleet in the village for self-cultivation. Then, everyone held a dinner party at Ekab Port and bought a few large beasts hunted by the locals, the Chinese and American tapirs.

"Huh? What kind of beast is this? It's bigger than a deer, has a lot of meat, and it's not too bad to eat... Well, it's much better than a stinky pig, about the same as a crocodile. I don't know, can you bring it back to raise it?"

Ash-soil Puapu eats meat in chunks and sips fruit wine. He thought about getting a beast like this back, and His Majesty might like it.

"I heard from the locals that tapirs are similar to deer. They are vegetarians. They are very clever and wild, and they have some strength to resist, and they cannot be raised."

The old militiaman Chiwako smiled and drank a glass of turbid fruit wine, and said leisurely.

"Don't think about it too much! The fleet rests here for a few days, and will cross the sea to the east. The sea is vast, there is no reference to the coast, and there will be storms at sea. In the last few days, give me food, sleep, and the rest. The voyage is about to fight with your life!"

Hearing this, everyone at UU Reading www.uukanshu.com was a little silent. Priest Tommat looked serious, and held up a glass of fruit wine in front of the bonfire at night. He stood up solemnly, led the crowd to the west, and praised loudly.

"Praise the Lord God! Praise the Highness of Shen Qi, guide us to this place!"

Then he turned east again, looked at the boundless coast, imagined the Cuban Snake Island in the depths of the East Sea, and prayed loudly.

"Blessed by the Lord! She used her boundless power to bless the devout believers and arrived at Cuban Snake Island!"

The crowd prayed solemnly, with resolute expressions on their faces, and their most steadfast shouts. At this point, there is no turning back, only to move forward!
