Chapter 593 King of Kings, Avite's Grand Plan

The mountain city is high and surrounded by bronze armor. The mountain wind blows the kings' hair, and the scorching sun shines on their faces, bringing the fiery and solemnity of late summer and early autumn.

Xiuluot's eyes are clear, and he looks at Avit. He is silent, feeling the fiery will and determination in the king's eyes. After a long time, he nodded heavily, knelt on one knee, and promised in a deep voice.

"Dear king, I obey your king's order! I will capture the White Snake Hill City and besiege the Cloud Snake Mountain City until the descendants of the enemy Cloud Snake are cut off from the world! No matter how long it takes."

"Good! Very good!"

Seeing Xiuluot's obedient attitude, Avit nodded with satisfaction. He stretched out his palm, squeezed Xiuluot's hair, and gently rubbed his forehead.

"Xuluot, my son-in-law. Half of the main force of the royal family in the north has been evacuated. Within half a month, I will return to the capital in the lake with the last two royal legions. Then, I will summon the new high priest group to hold a grand ceremony for the victory of the Eastern Expedition! As for the remaining remnants in the mountains in the four states of Tlaxcala, they will all be handed over to you to pacify!"

When mentioning the high priest group, the king paused slightly and used the word "summon". Xuluot had no time to think about it. He just looked serious and repeated in his heart.

"Grand ceremony for the victory of the Eastern Expedition?!"

The endless sea of ​​corpses and blood seemed to be coming, making Xuluot smell blood. He pursed his lips, hesitated a little, and still gave a warning.

"Father-in-law, I heard that there will be 36,000 sacrifices in the Eastern Expedition Ceremony. Among them, there are 6,000 descendants of the Cloud Snake God and 30,000 men from various tribes! The descendants of the Cloud Snake God are the favorite sacrifices of the Lord God and the most stubborn enemy of the Alliance. In order to stabilize the Alliance's conquest, they should indeed be completely eradicated! But, perhaps, the number of ordinary male sacrifices can be slightly reduced."

"Hmm?"

Avite's eyes were sharp, and he looked over when he heard the voice. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, making people dare not look directly at him. In an instant, there was silence on the hill. After a moment, Avite looked at Xiu Luote's calm face, spoke lightly, and rebuked in a deep voice.

"Xuluot, I heard about your sacrifice in the holy city of Cholula before, and I thought you would change. You know, what the Mexica League needs most now is a great sacrifice to appease the people and suppress the four directions!"

". The Great Temple has been completed, and sacrifices are needed to worship the gods! The immortal elders are going to the Kingdom of God, and sacrifices are needed! The respected high priest was murdered by the city of Cholula, and revenge sacrifices are needed! The victorious return of the Eastern Expedition requires victory sacrifices! And the autumn harvest of the League has just been completed, and harvest sacrifices are also needed!"

"With so many sacrifices added together, the mere 30,000 captured people, who are all humble Tlaxcala captives, are nothing?!"

"Yes, respected teacher, follow your teachings!"

Hearing this, Xiuluot bowed his head slightly, without showing any confrontation at this time. The reason why he spoke out was completely to follow the principles in his heart, not to fight with the king. A true king must act according to his own will, but he must pay attention to strategy.

The young king pondered for a while before reorganizing his words and giving advice to the middle-aged king.

"Teacher, I heard that when the four states are pacified, my brother-in-law Chimarpili will be enfeoffed here and succeed the Cloud Snake God?"

The enfeoffment of the four states involves the transfer of many nobles, which is very involved and will definitely leak out. As a branch of the royal family and the heir of the alliance, it is not surprising that Xiuluot can get the news in advance. And on this matter, Avit was calm and did not hide anything.

"Indeed! The four states of Tlaxcala in the East, except for these two snake cities, have been basically completely conquered. According to the alliance convention, the prince should be enfeoffed to succeed the Cloud Snake God! After much thought, although little Chimalpili is still young, he is a suitable candidate."

"Teacher, enfeoffment of foreign states requires sufficient population tribes to be stable. In this case, why not give these 30,000 population to Chimalpili? With these populations, he can support 2,000 more warriors, and his position in the four states will be much more stable!"

"Huh? Give 30,000 population to little Chimalpili?"

Hearing his son-in-law's suggestion, Avit's face showed surprise for the first time. He was not surprised by the proposal itself. In fact, the female snake Gilim had also made similar suggestions to him. What really surprised the king was that such a suggestion came from his son-in-law!

"Well, Xiuluot is the eldest brother, and Chimalpilly is the brother-in-law. Brothers are friendly and respectful to each other, just like my eldest brother Asiacatel and me."

Avit lowered his eyes and recalled some distant scenes. His heart was slightly warmed, and his eyes were slightly soft. After a long while, the Supreme King smiled and said lightly.

"Xiuluot, your suggestion is also desirable. I will seriously consider it. As for little Chimalpilly, it will take two years to be truly enfeoffed in the east. In these two years, the area of ​​the lake area directly under the royal family needs to be further expanded, and the fiefs of the great nobles within 200 miles of the capital will be transferred one after another."

"The newly acquired four states will be mainly used to settle the great nobles of the alliance, while migrating the people they control and gradually absorbing the Tlaxcala tribe! The Mexica tigers will settle in the rich valleys in the east. And little Chimalpilly is the nominal tiger king!"

At this point, Avit thought for a moment and continued to add.

"Of course, little Montezuma has completed five years of priest studies and has become a priest of the main god. He is the eldest son of my elder brother, Asayacatl. He is over 20 years old and is also supported by many nobles. My elder brother was very good to me when he was alive, and little Montezuma is also brave and intelligent. In the near future, when I wipe out the Mixtecs in the south, I will give him the valleys and forests of 300 miles in the south!"

"Wipe out the Mixtecs and give Montezuma II a fief?"

Hearing this, Xiu Luote was a little surprised. But he thought about it again, and it was reasonable. According to the closeness of the royal blood, Montezuma II is indeed a very close nephew of the king, and he inherited the political legacy of his predecessor Asayacatl.

"Haha! The original god combined himself and gave birth to four main gods. The east is a white cloud snake, the west is a red-tongued black wolf, the south is a dark green hummingbird, and the north is a black night wind. The world was created!"

Under the Cloud Snake City, Avit was in high spirits, looking at the high sky, and singing the ancient sacrificial poem. His ambition, like that of the original god, is to redefine the four fields and rule the world!

"The direct territory of the royal family is the Mexica Valley, located in the center of the world! And you, Xiuluot, will rule the land in the western lake, little Chimalpilly will rule the land of the four states in the east, little Montezuma will rule the land of the southern mountains and forests, and when little Xiuhua grows up, he can rule the northern plateau or the eastern coast. As for the other royal branches, they must be divided into distant places one by one and occupy all the fertile lands."

Listening to the king's grand plan, Xiuluot lowered his head and pursed his lips. Thousands of thoughts fluctuated in his heart, just like witnessing the opening up of China and the enfeoffment of the princes by King Cheng of Zhou.

In this era of geographical isolation and no roads, before the spread of horses and clippers, the distance of direct rule was always very limited. The highly centralized Central American empire had no soil for birth. Therefore, in Avit's most magnificent imagination, it was to unify the four seas and enfeoff the world!

"Three thousand miles north and south, two thousand miles east and west, all the kings of the Mexica royal family will be enfeoffed! In this way, after a few decades, the whole world will belong to the Mexica royal family and slowly assimilate into one! And I, Avitsotel, will personally cut off the descendants of the gods in the world, unite all the tribes, and no longer be the big talker of the alliance, but be the ancestor of the kings and the king of the kings!"

The heroic declaration sounded in front of the ancestral land of the Tlaxcalans and floated to the high clouds. King Avit spread his arms and looked up at the sky, like a divine bird flying to the sky and turning into the sun! Xiuluot lowered his head slightly and stood behind the king, like the wings of a divine bird, steady and powerful.

"What does it look like above the nine heavens?"

Avit, with his head held high, didn't know the answer. He just made up his mind to turn into a burning firebird and fly to the highest! Xiuluot, with his head lowered, knew the answer. He climbed the mountain patiently, waiting for the top of the mountain to be inserted into the clouds.
