Chapter 553: Post-War Arrangements, the King's Conquest

The raindrops fell for three days, and the brutal city washing also lasted for three days. The rain falls on the temple of the hunting god, on the palace of the descendant of the tree snake god, and on the mansions of the hereditary nobles. The fresh blood stains were washed away by the heavy rain, and the dying cries were scattered in the wind. In the sturdy ancient Tree Snake City, only gorgeous and decaying ruins are left.

It was not until three days later that the heavy rain stopped and a new order came along with the sunshine. King Avit issued a royal order to restrain the warriors of various states and divide the garrison positions of each ministry. Then, wearing bronze armor and holding a gem scepter, he walked into the clean tree snake city surrounded by a thousand loyal guards.

"The second Snake City built by the people of Tlaxcala more than a hundred years ago, the de facto capital of the Four Kingdoms Alliance, the Tree Snake City with unbroken heritage, now surrenders at my feet! Haha!"

King Avit climbed onto the eighty-nine-meter-high stone city wall, and accompanied by his generals, looked around the compact and fortified city-state. He looked down at the city inside and outside and couldn't help but laugh heartily! His heroic laughter was filled with the pride of conquering his old enemy and the pride of wanting to dominate the world!

"Your Majesty! The people of Tlaxcala resisted very resolutely in this attack on the city. The warriors suffered thousands of casualties! Even the commander of the thousand-man battalion in our army lost three people on the city wall. It's really for this reason. Elders take revenge, devote themselves to the Lord God, and risk their lives for His Majesty!”

The dead dog Chi Chi Mickey straightened his spine and stood aside. There were still blood stains on his bronze armor that couldn't be washed away. Hearing the king's proud declaration, he gritted his teeth, lowered his head slightly, and warned carefully and tactfully.

"Tree Snake City is so strong, time is so tight, and the king's order to attack the city is so urgent. Thanks to the rock-hard bronze armor, shocking new weapons, and the blessing of the Lord God, which delayed the arrival of rain for a few days, it will be possible to conquer the city. Win such a difficult victory before the rain falls!

"Um?"

Hearing this, Avitt frowned slightly, hearing the unfinished meaning in Dead Dog's words. He turned his head and glanced at the trusted general who had been cleaning the city for several days and was in full uniform, and his expression softened slightly. The king pondered for a while, then nodded slightly.

"Death Dog, you led the royal warriors to fight bravely and lived up to my expectations! The royal legion was the first to break into the city and captured the Lord of the Tree Snake City alive. He also captured the two fleeing Tlaxcala princes. We should fight for this. First prize! Chichi Mickey, my loyal general, I will give you a huge reward! As for the pioneer warriors who broke into the city, as well as the royal warriors who died during the attack, they will all be given huge rewards and compensation!"

"Well, Your Majesty, I don't want to"

After hearing the king's words, the dead dog Chichimicchi opened his mouth slightly and wanted to continue to say something, but he saw the eyes of General Intelligence Officer Gillim shaking his head. He pursed his lips and bowed his head respectfully.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! The Lord God bless you! You are invincible and are my supreme sun!"

"Haha! Not bad, do your best! Next, there will be many opportunities to make meritorious deeds!"

Avitt raised the corners of his mouth and nodded. He stretched out his hand, patted Chi Chi Mickey on the shoulder, and whispered an order.

"Dead Dog, tonight I will have a banquet for all the generals to celebrate the victory of the Eastern Expedition! You go back and sort it out, and wait until tomorrow to report back to me individually the specific number of casualties of the Royal Legion."

"I obey you, Your Majesty!"

Chi Chi Mickey knelt down on one knee and saluted respectfully. Avitt smiled, walked down the high city wall, and continued to patrol the city.

"Your Majesty, such a strong city was captured by the alliance's army in just one month! It can be seen that the Lord God bless the Alliance, and the God of War blesses the king. You are the son of the supreme God!"

Xochikalo was wearing a spruce-striped battle suit, holding the scepter of the commander of the Sourwood Legion in his hand, bending slightly and standing respectfully to the side with a smile. His cheeks were slightly chubby, and although he was tall and tall, his smile was harmless, and even his eyes were narrowed to a slit.

During this siege, the Sourwood Legion was the second to break into the city, occupying many noble mansions and looting a lot of them. According to the custom of the alliance, 20-30% of the looted loot is usually given to the supreme commander, 20-30% to the commander of the direct legion, and the remaining half is divided among the nobles and warriors of all levels who participated in the seizure.

In the Sourwood Legion, Xochikalo, as the successor commander, his share of the spoils is theoretically equal to that of the king. In actual operation, there will be a lot more. This is the benefit of being a legion commander!

"Ha ha!"

Avitt burst out laughing at Xochkalo's compliment. Then, he took a deep look at the other party, then slightly quickened his pace and put some distance between himself and the generals behind him.

Xochikaluo understood in his heart and quickened his pace to keep up with the vigorous king and listen to the instructions alone.

"How is the Sourwood Legion clearing up the remaining enemies in the city?"

Avitt paused for a moment and asked in a deep voice. There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were deep and somewhat meaningful.

"Your Majesty! I have captured the personal warriors who participated in the night attack in Tree Snake City. I will kill them all to avenge the former legion commander Yotiko!"

Hodgcarlo paused, looked around and saw no one around, and spoke in a low voice.

"Um"

Hearing this, Avitt's eyes flashed. He pondered for a moment and said with a smile.

"Commander of the Yotiko Army dedicated his life to the Alliance, and now that he has been honored, he will surely rest in peace in the Kingdom of God! The nobles of the Sourwood Army should be able to settle down and serve the Alliance."

Hearing this, Xochikaluo understood. He responded respectfully and reported on the situation of the city-state army.

"That's right! Your Majesty, since Tree Snake City has fallen, Commander Yotiko died a worthy death! Yesterday, I summoned many nobles in the army to hold a memorial ceremony for the commander. Everyone praised him without any doubts, and they all respected the king. With great martial arts skills, I am willing to die for the king!"

"Yodico's bodyguards served as the vanguard and attacked the city to the death. Now there are only a dozen people left! They avenged the family leader and fought bravely. Now that their great revenge has been avenged, they should be extremely grateful to Your Majesty."

"Very good! Xochikalo, you did a good job! With the Sourwood Legion in your hands, you should be able to make greater contributions to the Alliance."

Avitt nodded with satisfaction. He looked at the slightly chubby Xochikalo, but he couldn't tell that the leader of the Yunshan tribe was so meticulous and proper in his work.

"Captain Yotiko died fighting for the alliance, and he deserved his death. Now that Tree Snake City has fallen, as the king, I will personally hold a ceremony to pay homage to him!"

"Praise be to the King! You are majestic and merciful, like the eagle in the sky!"

Xochkalo nodded repeatedly, smiling respectfully and kindly. Then, he thought of something, hesitated for a moment, and then asked with murderous intent.

"Your Majesty, the warrior chief of Yotiko, Turquoise Tesihuite, is as brave as a mountain lion and storms the city first! Such a brave warrior may have received divine grace and deserves the most sacred honor."

"Huh? The most sacred honor?"

Avitt paused, savoring the Xochkalo words. The most sacred glory has many meanings, but the most common one is to sacrifice to the Lord God and meet a glorious death.

The king looked calm and pondered for a while. He glanced at the towering southern city wall and recalled the previous siege.

During the siege of the city that day, Texihuite was brave and fearless, wielding a shield and a stick, and climbed up to the top of the city to fight. His burly and tall figure was indeed impressive in the king's eyes.

"Such a brave general can serve as a vanguard and kill the generals and capture the flag for me!"

Avitt pondered for a while, a faint murderous intention brewing in his heart, but it was not strong. He thought for a while and asked in a deep voice.

"Xochikalo, that Texihuit made great contributions to this attack on the city. What can you say?"

"Well"

Xochikalo thought for a moment, hesitating his words. He understood what the king meant. He was asking Tessie Whitt if he had any doubts or other thoughts about the death of the legion commander.

"As the name suggests, the Tesihuite people are as stubborn as rocks. He believed that the tree snake warrior was the enemy who killed the clan leader, and he risked his own life when attacking the city. Now, he has avenged his great revenge. After paying homage to the family leader, he practices every day He is not skilled in martial arts, practicing as a warrior, and does not move around. In my opinion, he should have no thoughts."

"Yes, that's right. He is a pure warrior and can die for the Alliance!"

Avitt thought for a while, his murderous intent gradually subsided, and a confident smile appeared on his lips.

All the tree snake guards were killed, and most of the sourwood guards were also killed. The previous plan was like the night attack before the heavy rain, all traces were wiped away. And such a brave warrior, who has made the first contribution, is an example of the city-state warriors' loyalty to the alliance, and can be used to inspire the warriors' hearts! He knew nothing about what happened before, so there was no need to execute him.

Besides, the number of alliance nobles who died at the hands of the female snake had already exceeded a hundred. Their warriors were also integrated into the royal regiment, received favor from the royal family, and fought desperately for the king.

"Haha! Such a brave warrior deserves a glorious reward!"

The king thought for a moment and made a confident decision. He laughed loudly and announced the long-planned royal order according to the original plan. After forcing the city-state legions to attack the city, they recruited warriors from various tribes to further weaken the strength of the alliance states.

".I made a promise to all the armies! The brave warriors of the city-state will be selected into the Broken Hair Guards, and will be rewarded with the fiefdom of Chinampa to fight for the supreme king!"

Avitt declared loudly, his eyes as bright as fire. That is the raging ambition, and it is also the determination of the king, which cannot be violated in any way. His eyes sparkled as he looked at Xochikalo. The newly promoted city-state leader's pupils shrank and he lowered his head, not daring to look at the king.

"Hochkalo, the Broken Hair Guards will continue to expand. Each city-state army must hand over warriors who are good at fighting to fight for the royal family! You will be given ten days to hand over two hundred elites, at least level three. The level of an elite fire warrior! Well, that Texihuit, who is brave and good at fighting, can be counted among them!"

No matter how brave a warrior is, he cannot control his own destiny. In just a few words from the king, everything is decided for a mortal: life or death, or dignity.

"Ah?! Your Majesty, the Sourwood Legion has suffered heavy casualties."

Hearing this, Xochikalo was shocked and looked embarrassed. Two hundred level three elite fire warriors! The Sourwood Legion had suffered a lot of losses, with only more than two thousand warriors left. If we deploy another two hundred elites, it will really break our muscles and bones!

"After the Eastern Expedition, the Duanfa Guards will be expanded to 2,000 men! The seven legions in the north and south, as well as the feudal kingdom in the lake, will have to hand over hundreds of warriors! The Sourwood Legion suffered heavy casualties, so I just opened up. Only two hundred people."

Avitt glanced at him lightly, with a hint of warning and murderous intent. Xochikalo trembled all over. Thinking of Jodiko's death, he suddenly became silent and did not dare to speak again.

"Okay, that's it! Let's go, the pyramid is right in front of us. Let's go to the temple on the tower and take a good look, the respected Lord of Tree Snake City!"

The corners of the supreme king's lips raised, leaving a declaration of victory. His heart was filled with the joy of conquest, to conquer the recalcitrant tribes in the world, and even more to conquer the unruly nobles of the alliance.

"The one who unifies all the tribes in the world, takes control of all the states, and shines as brightly as the sun, is the real supreme king!"

Avit looked up at the scorching sun overlooking the city-state from the pyramid dozens of meters high. He is the main god on the throne, rising after the destructive rain, illuminating everything new, and determining the prosperity and decline of all things.

".And I am the sun!"

The king's whispers faded in the wind. His figure gradually walked away and gradually climbed higher. He was not very tall, but his steps were unusually steady. Step by step, he arrived at the high pyramid.
