Chapter 1229 The Fear of the Monkey Is Not that Its Feathers Are Flying Around, but that Its Mind Is Climbing up a Tree

Chapter 1229 The fear of the divine monkey is not that its feathers are flying around, but that its mind is climbing up a tree...

"God bless you! Commander of the army, we captured Shamu City and destroyed the last northern Tekos city-state that resisted! After more than two years of conquest, we finally defeated the northern Tekos tribes on both sides of the river! …Next, shall we continue to go north to pursue Prince Feather’s remnant army?”

"."

The rising sun rises over the East Mountain, casting a long shadow slanting to the west, reflecting the undulating and isolated West Mountain. The ancient Shamu City is located in the basin between the mountains, beside the flowing Shah River. It has spent hundreds of thousands of years.

According to the North Tekos descendants, the original ancestors were of the ancient Toltec bloodline. They hid in the wilderness mountains only to avoid the doomsday disaster. And when the divine disaster passed, they went south from the north, walked out from the "Big Sand River" in the upper reaches of the Shah River, walked out of the continuous mountains and wasteland, and settled in this rare and fertile land! Subsequently, the tribe gradually expanded southward until it reached both sides of the Leman River...

As for the Tekos tribe further south, although their language and appearance are similar to those of the Tekos people in the north, they do not have the ancient sacred blood they respect. They are just ordinary mortal tribes.

"This is what the descendants of the northern Tekos gods say. But in my opinion, the northern and southern Tekos tribes are originally one family... They are all descendants of the wilderness dogs who came south, and they are also one with us!..."

Kuruka, the great monkey chief, wore a feather crown and stood at the top of Shamu City, staring at the north for a long time. To the northeast of Shamu City are rolling mountains, and to the northwest is a gradually opening valley. Continuing north along the northwest valley, you will find the cheerful coastal plain and the flooded swamps impacted by the river.

The large river plains and swamps were the territory of a number of small hunting tribes. The Huilqiao people and the Northern Tecos people shared the hunting ground. There was no longer a city-state of a large tribe.

After seeing all this clearly, the monkey Kuruka turned his head and made a decision in his heart. Then, his eyes burned brightly. Looking at the close confidant battalion commander beside him. His bright eyes were full of examination, just like His Highness used to examine him.

"Guzman!"

"Ah! Legion Commander, what are your orders next?..."

"Witness the Lord God! Guzman, this city of Shamu is the northernmost city-state among the Northern Tekos tribes. Further north, there is the barren territory of the hunting tribes. Those are the poor hunting tribes, and the southern ones. The villages of Tecos are different…”

"Similarly, the current position of the army is four hundred miles away from Hushi City when the expedition was launched, six hundred miles away from the Chapala Lake in the east, and three hundred miles away from the nearest middle section of the Leman River... Three hundred miles away, this distance is somewhat Too far!"

"What's more, it's already the beginning of March... Guzman, do you understand what I mean, do you know the next step?..."

"Ah! Legion commander, please let me sort things out..."

Upon hearing this, the warrior battalion commander Guzman's eyes widened and he thought carefully. He wore cloth-covered bronze armor and held a three-meter long spear. He was half a body behind the legion commander, but half a head taller. After ten years of fighting, this once young and timid Mexican gold miner has gradually grown and transformed in repeated battles, becoming a truly brave warrior with a golden gun, and the most trusted confidant around Monkey Kuruka!

In the past ten years, he has been following Monkey, growing from a nervous and fearful spear militia to a brave spear warrior. Then, he made great achievements in battle and was promoted to a samurai captain who fearlessly charged into battle, then to a samurai battalion captain who was determined to fight bloody battles, and now he is a samurai battalion commander commanding thousands of people. And his step-by-step process is also the life trajectory of many Golden Gun Warriors.

From the First Lance Corps that filled the line ten years ago to the now invincible Great Lakes Corps, it only takes ten years of fighting and has never been defeated!

"Well...Legion Commander, I seem to understand something!...You said that war is a calculation, and all gains and losses must be calculated, especially logistics and food accumulation..."

"God bless you! This is not what I said, it was your Majesty who said it!"

"Yes! Praise the Lord God, praise Your Majesty!..."

The warrior battalion commander Guzman lowered his head and prayed devoutly. Then, with a serious look on his face, he stretched out his fingers one by one to count to the approving monkey Kuruka.

"Witness the Lord God! Legion Commander, Shamu City is indeed the northernmost city-state, and the city wall is also the lowest. And further north, there are only a small and loose Tekos tribe, and even many are still hunting and migrating... Therefore, if we If we continue to go north, it will be difficult to collect food for the army, and these tribes have probably been plundered by Prince Feather and even fled north together..."

"As for the Leman River, it is the lifeline for the army to move quickly and conquer various ministries along the river! Our Great Lakes Legion, as long as it is not far around the river, can quickly dispatch armies with the help of the river's shipping to conquer the upper and lower reaches...three hundred miles It is the time for the army to march for ten days, which is also the limit of timely suppression of the rebellion! As long as we are still within three hundred miles from the north to the south of the river, the 200,000 Great Lake Prepecha people in the upper reaches and the more than 200,000 Northern Tecos in the middle and lower reaches will be conquered! Tribes, as well as the 40,000 to 50,000 Guamar dog descendants settled along the river... These chaotic tribes that have not been conquered for a long time and have not yet truly returned home will be afraid of our powerful military fronts that can arrive at any time, and they will not dare to have the idea of ​​​​rebellion..."

"And now it is the beginning of March, and there are only two months before the spring plowing in May! This time is no longer enough to support our march north to attack the Feather Prince who has fled to who knows where... So, in general, food supply, rear suppression, Even during spring plowing time, we can no longer support our northern expedition! And Shamu City is the end of this expedition. It is lucky that the remaining army of Feathers has escaped with their lives. As for the next step, the army will quickly return south to prepare for this year's five. Moon’s spring plowing!”

After this analysis, the warrior battalion commander Guzman opened his eyes wide, like a student waiting for the teacher to praise him, looking at the regiment commander expectantly. The monkey Kuruka smiled and nodded with sincere joy. He stretched out his hand, patted his close confidant Guzman's shoulder hard, and said with a "very comforting" smile.

"Very good! Guzman, you are very good!..."

"The location of Shamu City is very important. It is the key town in the north of the river. Not only must we guard against the canine descendants from the north who attack from the south, but we must also guard against the Feather Prince who may not come back to attack... Only by guarding this place can we protect the entire river. Stable farming along the coast!…”

"I can only hand over such an important town to someone I can trust and see clearly! Guzman, among the Great Lakes Legion, you are the only one who meets this condition! Therefore, I will hand over this important northern town to you! …”

"Ah? Ah this!...Legion commander, boss! You want to leave me here and let me take charge of a city-state?...But, but I am just...a warrior battalion commander of civilian origin, I can only fight!... "

Upon hearing Kuruca's arrangement, Guzman froze on the spot, his face turned pale, and he once again showed his long-lost nervousness. At this moment, he had full confidence. Under the order of the legion commander, he led a thousand spear warriors to attack and defeated thousands of enemy troops! However, asking him to be stationed alone and responsible for military and political affairs seemed to be far beyond his experience and ability, which made him uneasy and fearful...

"Haha! Guzman, if you want to sit here firmly, it is enough to know how to fight! What's more, you have also commanded the warrior battalion and have experience in farming... This Shamu City does not need much to serve as a northern military town. The tribesmen are too mixed, I will move most of the tribes away! You have to believe in yourself, as long as you can defend, fight, and farm, it will be enough!"

Monkey Kuruka smiled and gave the samurai battalion commander a friendly fist, encouraging his trusted fellow villager. Although he had a smile on his face, he was actually a little sad and worried in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about it. Because he really has no one left!

As the commander of the army who was born as a civilian in Mexico, Monkey had no retainers and no noble descendants of Prepecha to join him. And he kept himself clean and did not marry into any big tribe. At the moment, the only confidants he can completely trust, except for a few kingdom priests and Prepecha generals, are only warriors from the Lance Corps, and the only soldiers he leads with his own hands!

With such a weak foundation, the monkey's conquest and expansion were extremely rapid, just like the swallowing of a big fish. However, in just a few years, he conquered Lake Chapala, conquered the Northern Tecos tribes in the middle and lower reaches of the Leman River, and even pursued Prince Feather for 600 miles, driving him completely to the edge of the northern continent!

But in this way, facing a huge territory that is one-third of the Kingdom in the Lake, the reliable manpower in his hands will be even more stretched...

"O Lord God! From Chapala Lake to the mouth of the sea, it is six hundred miles from east to west. From Shamu City to Ameka City, it is four hundred miles from north to south. In such a vast territory, there are half a million tribes from all over the world... I really Can it be digested steadily and controlled in my hands? ... Do I have to imitate the Qingqiu frog and the poet Paramo and marry the conquered tribes from all over the world? Like Zipan, he has joined forces with the kingdom's priest faction and powerful local forces to support His Highness as a prince... But these methods are just to let the beast out of the cage..."

At this moment, the monkey Kuruka stood on the low and dilapidated ancient city wall, looking at the sun gradually rising into the sky, with thousands of thoughts surging in his heart. After a long time, he breathed out a long, low breath and smiled self-deprecatingly at the sun.

"Your Highness, Your Highness! My mixed-race Dahu County is really too messy! I want to suppress 500,000 tribes, but the Mexica headquarters I can rely on only has 4,000!..."

"God bless you, my Highness, you must come back as soon as possible and well! ... Otherwise, I am really afraid that I will not be able to bear it, and I am afraid that the ape in my heart will climb the tree! In the end, I will either take the clan road of Qingqiu, or walk On the road to Apa’s support…”
