Chapter 1360 Cuba, the Hot Land, the Kingdom of God on Earth!

"The great flag leader of Copili! We have arrived at Snake Island in Cuba. In front of us is the snake tail at the westernmost end of Snake Island. The Xishan tribe has converted to the main god!..."

"God bless me! These five to six hundred miles of waves, which lasted for five days, really knocked me over! Hurry! Hurry to the shore and let the warriors go ashore to repair it!..."

Six galleys rushed to the shore, almost without stopping, until they reached the shallow water. The three hundred kingdom warriors on the boat jumped onto the beach impatiently. Many people vomited and lay down on the beach. As the leader of the three hundred warriors, Kopili also jumped off the boat and planted a large flag symbolizing the camp on the beach!

"Phew! Each team leader counts the number of people. After the flag leader confirms, come and report to me!"

Kopili gave a loud order, and the landed kingdom warriors quickly divided into teams of twenty and moved towards their respective captains. According to the kingdom's military system, the most basic combat unit is the "twenty-man squad." This is also the tradition of capturing and hunting captives in various tribes in Central America, because if you put your fingers and toes together, you can count exactly twenty people.

The leader of a twenty-man samurai squad is often called the "leader." And further up, a slap, that is, five squads of twenty people, forming a "Team of One Hundred." The centurion has a flag representing the team, so the captain of the centurion is customarily called the "flag leader". And the two palms put together form a brigade of two hundred people. The captain here will be called the "big flag leader".

There are not necessarily only two centurions under the "big flag leader". For example, the Black Wolf's confidant who is currently leading the army, Totonac's brave general Kopili, leads three full centurions, a total of three hundred kingdom warriors. After capturing Port Ekab, he followed Black Wolf's order and immediately followed the opened shipping route and crossed the sea eastward to support Cuba!

In addition to the official Kingdom Legion, similar military divisions also appear in the conscripted tribal flag corps. A small flag team of about 400 people usually recruits 40 soldiers, and the leader in charge is called "small flag captain." The banner team of 4,000 people usually has 400 soldiers, led by the "big banner captain". In other words, the recruited tribal flag team actually only has three levels: "tribal warrior-small flag captain-big flag captain", which is more simplified and crude.

In daily combat expeditions, a team of twenty people is responsible for scouting and reconnaissance, and a team of one hundred people is responsible for occupying a village. Several hundred-man squads control a battlefield node, while a thousand-man battalion is the command unit of the battle. Further up, several legions of thousands of battalions can attack cities and seize territory and conduct large-scale battles.

The resulting military system of the kingdom is precisely the six levels of "warrior - leader of the team - leader of the hundred-man flag - leader of the large flag - leader of the thousand men - commander of the legion." This six-level military system is actually similar to the tribal military system on the nomadic grasslands in the north of China. It is in line with the limits of capabilities under the current culture and traditional habits.

Because this simple and crude military system actually corresponds to actual conditions and is determined by the cultural level of officers and leaders. It's not that the kingdom doesn't want to use more detailed military divisions, Shulot has already drafted many complex military systems, some of which are even ahead of the times...

But practice has proven everything. The tribal warriors gathered from all parts of the world seriously lack more detailed organizational capabilities! If the design of the military system is too complex, it will be difficult for the tribal warriors to adapt, and it will only cause a decrease in combat effectiveness! Similarly, the current military organization is sufficient to deal with the tribal enemies encountered in the expansion of the kingdom, and there is no urgent need for further development and refinement...

"Big banner head! The three centurions, except for the four or five who fell into the water across the sea, the rest are all here! In addition, the tribal militiamen from the Western Mountains who came to greet us have also arrived, just on the east hillside!..."

"Oh! You found us so quickly? This Western Mountain Division is very good! Let me take a closer look... Hiss! These Taino militiamen are so tall, they are very good warriors at first glance!..."

"."

The generally tall Taíno militiamen would always give the kingdom warriors they met during their first meeting a brief illusion of being capable of fighting. But after a real close encounter, you can read the full simplicity and honesty on the faces of the tall militiamen who are obviously carrying spears but look like they are carrying baggage. According to Commander Black Wolf, it doesn't smell like a wolf at all, it just smells like a cowardly turkey...

The large Western Mountain tribe of thousands of Taíno people is located in the southwest corner of the Cuban Snake Tail. There is a complete circle of Nishi Nagaha Island Chain here, which is not easy to get lost when crossing the sea, so it is a very suitable navigation node for landing. As the first stop for the kingdom's reinforcements to cross eastward to Cuba, this is also the core of the kingdom's rule in western Cuba. It has a real and more reliable force of the kingdom's headquarters!

In the Western Mountains of Cuba, Yao Yun, the second-level priest who is also from Mexico and is the brother of Yao Yu, the priest of the Spider Cave Department in Cuba, is in charge. He is also the chief priest of Tomato, oh no, he is a trusted confidant of the new chief priest, and is fully responsible for missionary affairs in western Cuba.

In the entire Xishan Division, there are always three warrior squads, that is, sixty kingdom warriors. Not only do they receive support from Maya across the sea, but they are also always on guard against the invasion of evil spirits! They have trained more than 400 Taíno militiamen, armed with bronze spears, and able to command defensive spear formations. Of course, since these Taíno militiamen have never seen blood, it is actually difficult to say how they will fare once they encounter the enemy...

"Priest Yao Yun! The foundation of these militiamen is so good. As long as they fight a few more battles and get a little more blood on their hands, they should be able to become good wolf cubs! Are there any tribes around here that don't obey the Lord God? Just conquer them. ! Marshal Black Wolf often said, kill one monkey and make all monkeys afraid..."

Upon hearing the suggestion from the leader of Kopili, the priest Yao Yun of the Western Mountain Department smiled and said nothing. The other party had just arrived, and he was still using the fighting ideas of the Mayan jungle. He really knew nothing about the "peace and tranquility" of the Taino tribes in Cuba, and the Cuban missionary kingdom, which was rapidly expanding without any obstacles!

"God bless you! Captain Kopili Warriors, when you come to this peaceful hot land of Cuba, you and the warriors of the kingdom can loosen their fighting bows a little... At least, until the white-skinned evil spirit appears again, on this peaceful island , there are banners of obedience to the Lord God everywhere, and there are almost no places where the kingdom can send troops..."

Priest Yao Yun smiled and took a jar of lightly fragrant cassava wine from the respectful Taino apprentice and handed it to Copili, who was wearing armor and holding a spear. Then, he pointed at the main god's altar in the center of the village, as well as a row of brand-new wooden houses around it, and the more distant Shewei Xishan Mountain, and said with a smile.

"Witness the Lord God! All Taino tribes in Cuba are very good believers! Especially after the white-skinned demon's prophecy was verified, their conversion speed was simply beyond the imagination of all priests! These Taino believers are very good at farming and fishing , most of them are kind, docile and hard-working! This shrine to the Lord God was built voluntarily by the believers. In order to thank the Lord God for his protection and the composting and pottery-burning technology we brought, there is no need for the kingdom to recruit people... "

"Of course, in addition to the belief in the main god and the technology of the plateau, we also teach the local tribes to develop from tribal communes that live in groups and marry in groups to couples and families with clear marriages! You see, the row of newly built wooden houses are the kingdom's warriors and local people. The Taino women married and formed families. Many of them had newborn children, and the tribesmen in the village also began to establish a one-on-one relationship between husband and wife, and the priest and the priest's apprentices presided over the marriage. wedding!…"

"Blessed by the Lord God! The food here is very abundant, and there are very few disputes between tribes. And with the arbitration of the kingdom, conflicts between tribes have almost disappeared on the big island! His Highness once mentioned in Shenwei University Live the wonderful Kingdom of God on earth... In my opinion, it is in this hot land of Cuba, where there is plenty of peace, no shortage of food, and no cold..."

"Captain Kopili Warrior, look at the Western Mountains in the distance! Starting from the Western Mountains, from the westernmost tip of Cuba's Snake Island, five hundred miles to the east! Whether it's the Western Mountains, the Forest Ridge, the Iguana, the Lake Bird or the Forest. They are all large Taino tribes with some warriors stationed and thousands of people who have converted to the main god..."

Having said this, Priest Yao Yun paused, his face showing a look of sincere joy, and showing kindness and kindness rarely seen among plateau priests holding battle axes. Although he only lived in Cuba for two years with Taíno believers, he obviously changed a lot. So much so that the sharp battle ax in his hand turned into a clay pot for wine, and the obsidian dagger he offered as a sacrifice has not seen red for a long time...

"Witness the Lord God! Five hundred miles east of the Western Mountains, the only ones who are still hesitant and have not integrated into the arms of the Lord God are the Havana tribes with a large number of people, probably close to ten thousand people! ... But for the Havana tribes that are rich in tobacco, we There is no need to use force, because the priests of the main god have already begun to preach, and the progress is very fast. As long as Huairou continues to preach for a while, at most one year... we can turn the most fertile land in the center of Havana into the light of the main god. Hot soil!…”

"Haha! The benevolent Lord God, illuminates the entire island! Three thousand miles away from the hot land of Cuba, half of the 600,000 Taino tribe estimated by the Kingdom have now been embraced by the Lord God! ... Although, due to the missionary manpower There is a shortage of people, and many tribes only convert in name, lacking organization and prayer... But I have never doubted that this is the kingdom of gems that spreads the faith of the Lord God! It is the kingdom of God on earth where the Lord God gives pure white cassava! ..."
