Chapter 974 Two Proposals From the Old Fox: Worshiping Ancestors in the Holy City
"Witness of the Lord God, Papp, you gave me two proposals!...One is to rebuild the Olmec Eastern Holy City and hold the Olmec ancestor worship ceremony? The other is to make the leaders of the inland jungle tribes in the name of the Olmec ancestors, and become the co-lords of all tribes and unite the hearts of all tribes?"
"Exactly! Your Highness is really wise! With just one or two words, you hit the nail on the head, surpassing everything Papp said!..."
"Haha! Papp, your first proposal is really good! As the orthodox inheritance of the Olmec ancestors, the Alliance is indeed of the same origin as the Totonac tribes and the Sauk tribes! After the destruction of the Feathered Serpent Ancient City and the Hidden Snake Holy City, the seaside Totonac tribes, the Jungle Totonac tribes, the Jungle Sauk tribes, and those loose and messy small tribes... have completely lost their spiritual leaders..."
The setting sun reflected the red glow, and the blood-stained conversion ceremony also made the black king's flag float red. Under the banner of the king, Xiu Luote nodded in satisfaction, and patted General Papp on the shoulder. At this moment, his eyes were full of ambition, and his mouth was a firm declaration.
"So, the first proposal to rebuild the Olmec oriental holy city and hold the ancestor worship ceremony is to let the seaside Totonac tribes, the jungle Totonac tribes, and the jungle Sauk tribes know!..."
"We Mexica are not only the conquerors of the seashore, but also their former brothers on the plateau! The supreme god, the priesthood of the seaside, is their new spiritual leader! And the rebuilt Olmec oriental holy city is the source of the ancestors of all tribes, and it is also their true soul home!"
"Everything about faith, soul, and ancestors must be told to them by the kingdom and by me! Therefore, I will preside over it myself and hold the grandest ceremony to announce to all seaside and mountain tribes..."
"Yes! Yes! Your Highness, you are truly divinely wise! Proclaim your divinity and offer sacrifices to your ancestors!...Praise the Lord God! I, Pappu, lived like a blind fish for thirty years in a swamp, and only saw a real divine snake today! I now know what it means to be born with a divine nature and what it means to be born destined to rule mountains and seas!..."
"Haha! Papp, you are so interesting! Interesting! ...Come on, well said, keep talking!"
"Uh...Your Highness, in fact, apart from speeding up the integration of the ministries and uniting the hearts of the ministries, the establishment of the Eastern Holy City and the ministries of the Alliance have more visible benefits!...According to my stupid opinion, the army should conquer Hidden Snake City and remove the spiritual leaders of the ministries as soon as possible. After the capture of Hidden Snake City, there is no rush for the conquest of the inland jungle tribes, especially the hundreds of thousands of Sauk tribes in the southeastern jungle!..."
Hongxia falls down from the western mountains, and darkness emerges from the eastern sea. In front of the generals and His Highness, Papu was cautious at the beginning and did not dare to say more. But under Shulot's strict order, he had to rack his brains again, gradually let go of his caution, and talked gracefully.
"The army of the kingdom goes deep into the jungle. If there is no logistical support from the waterway, it will run out of food in just two hundred miles. The jungle terrain is dangerous and the movement is difficult, and it is difficult to wipe out all the tribes...cough! Respected leader of the black wolf, I am not talking about you...With your bravery, naturally no tribe can resist. However, they can flee and migrate in the jungle, and even seek refuge in the Zapotec tribes in the south and the highland Maya tribes in the southeast. ...Uh! You can chase thousands of miles away?...But, as long as your army returns, these tribes will also move back and become a hidden danger again...Uh! Ah!..."
"Hei Lang, just talk about the matter, don't beat people! What Papp said is very practical. Although it is related to your front line arrangement and fighting, and will modify your plan to conquer the states, you should listen to what is right!...Come on, Papp, keep talking!..."
"Ahem! ... Dear His Royal Highness, Dear Black Wolf General ... Therefore, in my stupidity, instead of recruiting one by one in the jungle, hard fighting, forcing various ministries to escape ... It is better to set up an Olmek Oriental Holy City and hold ancestral ceremony ... The co -owner! ... After the His Royal Highness established the nominal rule, he could send a call to various departments, and it was out of the east and crusched Maya! "
"Hmm...to form an alliance with the ministries of the jungle and become the co-lord of each ministry...this kind of thinking..."
For this second proposal, Shulot's eyes flickered, but he was actually somewhat disapproving. What Jiangjun Papp said was still the way to form a city-state tribal alliance and become the leader of the alliance, but the scope was expanded to include the entire seaside and jungle for thousands of miles.
After the kingdom wiped out two holy places of Totonac and directly controlled the coastal ministries, it formed an alliance with the inland jungle ministries by virtue of its powerful force, and established the rule of Jiji since then. And by setting up new holy places, on the condition of promising autonomy, in exchange for a large number of looser jungle ministries, nominally surrender. And if Xiulot had enough time and strength, he would naturally go on a thorough crusade and clean up all the jungle tribes thousands of miles inland!
But he thought of the reality, the army marched east to the seashore, and it took three full years to break through the thousands of miles of coastline. If we continue to crusade against the loose inland jungle, some of them don't even have a decent city, I don't know how many years it will take! But the time left is already running out... Thinking of this, he nodded slowly.
"Well, the Lord God blesses you! In the current situation, we must hurry to get through the land of Maya... As for the various ministries in the inland jungle, we can only make a little compromise!..."
The sun was setting, the sky was red, and the sea was glowing with blood. The sacred conversion ceremony had already ended in the setting sun, and it was time for dinner in a blink of an eye. Shulot stood up, gazed at the sunset on the seashore, then waved his hand, and gave orders to Hei Lang, who was glaring angrily, with a smile.
"My black wolf, go, restrain the warriors of all battalions for me, and arrange for the newly converted captives! Tonight, I will drink two cups with you on this hill, and watch the setting sun and the bright moon at the foot of this sacred mountain! …"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
Hei Lang stood up and nodded solemnly. Afterwards, he took a hard look at Pup, the general who was "slick tongued" and "randomly mentioned strategy", and strode away while holding the bronze long sword at his waist.
"Uh...Your Highness, you and your confidants have a drink together, so should I leave first..."
"No need! Papp, you sit next to me at the top."
Xiulot smiled and patted the seat beside him, making Papp's forehead sweat instantly.
"Ah! I... sit next to you on the top? This... this..."
"No problem! Come, sit down!...Pap, set up the Olmec oriental holy city, hold ancestor worship ceremonies, form an alliance with the tribes of the jungle, and become the co-lord of each tribe...These two proposals fit my Mexica epic, tell the myth of the same origin in the world, and are also conducive to reshaping the consensus of the descendants of the plastic man...It really suits my heart!"
Shulot stretched out his hand and pressed the trembling Papp beside him. Then, with a solemn expression, he stared into Papp's eyes and asked seriously.
"But among the two proposals, the most critical point... Papp, where do you think the location of this Olmec oriental holy city is better?!"
"Uh...Your Highness, please allow me to think carefully..."
"Okay! Don't worry. You think about it slowly. If the words are good, I will pour wine for you myself!..."
"Ah! Ah...Your Highness, I can't do it, I really can't do it!..."
Note: The jungle tribes here include the inland Totonac and Sauk tribes. The map of the easter egg chapter will be carefully marked.
