Chapter 222: Pursuit (Part 1)

The golden sunlight slanted westward, illuminating the bright red battlefield. The earth is soaked in warmth, and the wind is filled with blood. Among the emerald green grass, there are three-color feathers, patterned leather armor, broken spears, shining stone flakes, slanted arrows, scattered flags and countless fallen corpses. Looking at the bright red battlefield from a distance, the distance blurs the cruelty, and it is like seeing flowers all over the mountains and fields, blooming in the spring of reincarnation.

In this spring wilderness, tens of thousands of Mexica warriors raised their hands and cheered in victory. Golden bronze spears flashed on the ground, and black war clubs streamed under the sky. The long and slender bow was raised diagonally towards the sky, and the smoking thunder shot straight to the ground. These wild and powerful oaths were deeply engraved in the eyes of the old militiaman Chihuaco, making him shudder again.

The reinforcements in the royal capital include three thousand elites and fifteen hundred warriors. Even though all the troops had different ideas, after a long period of fighting, they were about to break through Toltec's defense line. However, at this moment, the inherited royal flag crashed down, the sacred cocoa tree collapsed in front of our eyes, and there was no hope for everything!

The three thousand reinforcements from the capital stood there for a few seconds, then made an uproar. Barbarians, militiamen, warriors, nobles, and priests were all in a mess; angry roars, chaotic cries, faint shouts of killing, and fierce arguments all suddenly mixed together.

The former military commander wears the uniform of a hummingbird. With despair on his face, he roared loudly and continued to move forward. However, the numerous nobles shook their heads and demanded an immediate retreat. Soon, a noble shouted loudly, with genuine fear.

"The Mexican Legion is coming!"

Everyone looked together and saw only the enemy commander's command flag waving under the Black Wolf's flag. Thousands of Mexica warriors carried longbows on their backs, waved their war clubs, and marched towards the reinforcements in the royal capital at a steady pace.

Even though they were several miles apart, the nobles could no longer hold back. They all turned around, left the panicked impromptu meeting, and returned to their private armies. The temple legion of the rear army was under independent command, and had already turned around and set off. Under the leadership of the high-ranking priests, they were the first to set foot on the northwest journey home.

Seeing this familiar scene, the old militiaman immediately realized something was wrong. He jogged two steps, grabbed the captain Puap who was roaring angrily, and shouted in an urgent voice.

"Master Huitu! The army is about to collapse! Hurry up and run back with the team!"

Puap shouted angrily, but his eyes were blank. The immortal banner broke like rotten wood, and the High King fell before his eyes. The three views that he had held for decades completely collapsed in an instant, and his spiritual heart was suddenly filled with darkness.

"That's the king of the gods. That's the incarnation of the sun god. How could he disappear so easily? Evil Mexica!"

Puap shouted angrily again, but there was unconcealable fear in his voice.

It's a matter of life and death now, and the crisis is right in front of us! The Old Minutemen exploded with twelve-point potential. He looked at Puap who was still stunned and stunned, and he was breathless. If it weren't for the follow-up plan, he would have escaped with his brothers long ago. Thinking of this, the old militiaman gritted his teeth and raised his hand to slap him.

"Pa! Master, if you don't leave, you will wait here to die!"

Puap was beaten so hard that stars appeared in his eyes, but his eyes finally regained their luster. He covered his sore cheek and yelled angrily.

"Old man Qi, how dare you hit me?!"

Seeing that the captain had regained his senses, Chihuaco quickly put on a smiling face, then raised his hand and slapped himself.

"Master, the sky is about to fall, and you are still in a daze. I am doing this for your own good! Look, the priests have escaped, and the nobles around are also fast. The fastest rabbit eats bean sprouts, The slowest rabbit will be eaten by the wolf! Master, we must run quickly, even if we can't run in the front, we must not run in the last place!"

Puap looked around and saw that the Mexican army blocking the reinforcements was scarred and panting and defending in place. The Mexican Legion that followed was several miles away, and its marching speed was only ordinary. There was no sign of the enemy yet, and the nobles had completely lost their will to fight. They roared loudly, desperately urging their private army to assemble, turned around and fled to the northwest capital. Farther away, the priests' flags were rapidly getting smaller.

"Shameless noble, incompetent priest!"

Puap roared angrily. He continued his search and finally saw the commander of the Hummingbird family. The other party is waving the command flag vigorously to gather the family warriors, but the order to march is actually to attack forward? !

Puap was stunned. He subconsciously looked at Chihuaco, and the old militiaman shook his head resolutely.

"Master, if you attack from behind now, it will be a dead end! It seems that my master no longer wants to live. You can't accompany him!"

"Master, even if we surrender, we must not choose this time! If the hunters catch too many rabbits, they will select a few and kill them. This battle has been going on for so long, the Mexicans are red-blooded, and they With so many prisoners captured, there might be a sacrifice! The only way out is to escape. Let's leave now. Once the real pursuit begins, we won't be able to escape once the Jaguars who are good at running join in. !”

When he heard the name of the Jaguar Chapter, Puap shuddered. This was a habit he had been frightened by horror stories since he was a child. He gritted his teeth and did not look at the commander's assembly order. Instead, he turned around and shouted to his warriors.

"Mexicans, damn it! Let's go back to the capital!!"

As the captain's order was given, the old militiamen clenched their spears, led their brothers, and turned around to return to the northwest. Before leaving, he looked towards the south for the last time. The sunlight illuminated his old cheeks, but could not penetrate his deep heart. There was only a faint sigh, floating low in the wind.

"This first bean, finally paid off the debt!"

Hundreds of steps away, the black wolf Toltec was covered in blood and breathing heavily. He had been fighting for half a day, and his body was quite exhausted, but his face was filled with a proud smile. Toltec looked at the chaotic enemy formation in front of him and their retreating actions, and waved his hand excitedly.

"What a stupid warrior! They are soft in your hands! Militia scouts, assemble quickly. Follow my orders and attack as soon as possible!"

After Toltec gave the order, he turned back with peace of mind and watched the situation in the south. With eyes full of envy, he watched the spear army waving the broken royal flag, listening to the proud and joyful shouts in the distance, and cursed angrily.

"The monkey got lucky again and unexpectedly hit a first move! He's about to be a step ahead of me again!"

The sharp eyes of the black wolf continued to scan, and suddenly stopped not far to the southwest. There were more than two hundred guards running there, led by the general known as the Hound. Black Wolf's spirit suddenly lifted, and the majestic fighting spirit rose from his heart again.

"I, the black wolf Toltec, will compete with the hound Yuku to see who is the real warrior! And catching the enemy general is also a great achievement!"

Black Wolf excitedly grasped the long bow. He looked around and gave orders decisively.

"Come on, two captains of bow hunters, join me in pursuit! The rest of the militia scouts, pursue the reinforcements from the capital, keep the order unchanged!"

After saying that, the black wolf who was good at running took the lead and rushed directly to the southwest with dozens of personal guards. Among the remaining military formations, senior scout Nekali was covered in blood, but he was holding the copper ax in his hand tightly. He looked towards the fleeing prey in the north, and a fierce smile gradually appeared on his face.

The Bronze Ax Guards quickly went west, temporarily staying away from the enemy's pursuit. Suangua stopped abruptly from running. He looked back sadly, watching silently as the ancient royal flag fell, tears uncontrollably overflowing from his eyes.

"The inheritance of our ancestors, the bloodline of the royal family, the magnificent capital, and the great kingdom will all be lost in my hands! Who am I to go to the Kingdom of God where I am destined to meet the souls of my ancestors!"

Yuku paused for a moment and stood beside the king. Half of his left ear was left, and it was simply bandaged twice with white cloth. It matched the king who had an injured right arm. However, this kind of minor injury cannot affect the unparalleled warrior, nor can it shake his firm will.

"Your Majesty, as long as you are alive, there is still hope for the king! The most important thing at this time is to retreat to the southwest. Before the Mexica people recognize your substitute, you can run as far as you want! Your Majesty, please cheer up , we will be back!”

Su Angua nodded and said sincerely.

"Yuku, my loyal hound! My safety is in your hands!"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to die for you! As long as I am here, I will never let anyone threaten you. Your Majesty, please go first, and I will come to the rear. I will definitely fall before you!"

Yuku knelt down quietly and bowed deeply. Then he stood up and waved the flag resolutely. Another fifty guards turned to the north, raised their shields and formed small scattered formations. Determined to die, they faced the longbow warriors who were chasing them, as well as the powerful warrior captains further away.

The hound stood there, took a deep breath, then raised his hand and shot two arrows to kill the first two enemies. Shocked by the fierce archery, the pursuing Mexica warriors slowed down a little, while the warrior chief accelerated the pursuit. The hound shot two more arrows, slightly suppressing the speed of the pursuers, then turned around again and pursued the king like a running wolf.

Two miles away, the black wolf Toltec touched the long bow on his back and showed a grin. Then, he continued to gallop, chasing the big fish in his heart!
