Chapter 703 Black Wolf's Oath
The summer rain fell for the first time. It rained for a few days but was windy, and then suddenly the sky cleared up and the clouds dispersed. In the deep sky, only the scorching sun is left, illuminating the fertile seaside and watching the crowds running.
The king's envoy Yao Lin came in a hurry to persuade Nianshui City to surrender. However, he stayed for more than ten days, and after meeting with the leader of the Black Wolf Army several times, he kept a low profile and left in a hurry. When he left, he took with him the eighty slaves given by Black Wolf, as well as the full "sincerity" that the slaves carried with their heads down.
Under the escort of two hundred legion warriors, dozens of divine nobles from Qinbo Ali also followed the messenger Yao Lin to the land of Tlaxcala. Their destination was the Tree Snake City camp where His Highness was stationed five hundred miles away.
"The attitude of the king, the attitude of His Highness, and the attitude of the great nobles of the alliance. I came here day and night. I want to try my best to maintain the tradition and make the three parties accept the leader of the Black Wolf Army but they are unwilling to accept it!"
Messenger Yao Lin turned around and looked back, looking at the tiny Nishui City on the horizon. There were ups and downs in his chest, but his face was calm and peaceful.
"The water of Lake Texcoco is rolling, and the undercurrent is raging up and down the alliance. The whirlpool on the seaside is the projection of Lake Texcoco, and it is not a long-term place for snapping turtles. As a good fighter, the black wolf jumped straight into In the sea, to fight against the tide, you must have the determination not to be afraid of drowning!”
Yao Lin narrowed his eyes, stared silently for a while, and shook his head. He turned around and looked at the rising hills to the west, then at the slaves carrying heavy gifts, and laughed at himself in a low voice.
"Forget it! The changes in the alliance in the past few years are like a roaring hurricane! So many noble people have died one by one according to King Avitt's wishes. I dare not see clearly. His Highness Shulot's ambitions, I also I can’t follow. As for the turmoil among the great nobles of the alliance, I don’t even want to get involved.”
"The hurricane is coming, the raindrops are heavy, the old clouds have dispersed, and the new thunder is booming. At this time when I can't understand the sky, I still hide in the mountains to survive. I have already fought once, and since there is no result, it is also destined. . Let’s give up my father’s business in the seaside place! Even if I leave it with His Highness in advance, I’ll secretly give it to you!”
Yao Lin held the amulet and prayed quietly. Then, with no nostalgia in his eyes, he strode forward towards the nearest Wushan City.
Five hundred miles to the west, he traveled to five mountain cities, mountain climbing springs, passed ancient market towns, and finally reached the main camp of Tree Snake City. And as long as he took the noble chiefs of Totonak, he arrived at Tree Snake City where His Highness was located. , the changes in the war situation in the East will have nothing to do with him from now on.
"As long as we get there, even if the sky falls, all the responsibilities will be borne by the tall Highness!"
"Chief Black Wolf! If the envoy of the Great Chief brings the noble chiefs of Totonak to Tree Snake City, will it be difficult for the Great Chief? Will these troublesome noble chiefs be released again?"
On the hill outside Nishui City, Red Deer Masat was wearing light leather armor, carrying a sharp copper ax on his waist, and carrying a large bow on his back. He widened his eyes, looked in the direction Yao Lin left, and spoke carelessly with murderous intent.
"What kind of messenger just came here and took away so much loot? Leader Black Wolf, otherwise, we would have killed him and the noble chiefs on the way! It would have been an attack by the Totonak people." Look, let’s see who dares to come over and talk!”
"Red Deer, after this expedition, your courage is really growing!"
Hearing this, Black Wolf Toltec withdrew his gaze and turned his head. He looked at the murderous red deer with a half-smile.
"Now, do you dare to shout and kill even the king's envoy?"
"Uh! Boss, I only have you and His Majesty the Death Temple in my heart! As for the king, he has nothing to do with me."
"Ha, you idiot! The king can't control you, but he can control His Highness!"
"Boss, His Highness is invincible, but he is the reincarnation of the real God of Death. Our Lake Army is no weaker than the Alliance Army! This Eastern Expedition is what our Southern Route Army opened the situation first. Now we have to fight against the rebellious Totona To defeat the people, the alliance even sent envoys to restrain everyone. According to me, why bother listening to the king? It’s better."
"You idiot, shut up!"
Hearing this, Black Wolf's eyes sharpened, he raised his hand and slapped Red Deer on the face. Red Deer staggered, and half of his face was instantly swollen. He covered his face and looked up at the fierce eyes of the black wolf. He was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, not daring to say a word.
"Red Deer, please remember this! Are the matters between the King and His Highness something that you can discuss casually? Don't say anything that shouldn't be said! If anyone dares to gossip, sow discord, or shake the alliance between the King and His Highness, If the situation is serious, I will cut off his tongue with my own hands!"
The black wolf's eyes were cold and he stared at the red deer fiercely for a while. He watched the red deer kowtow repeatedly, making his forehead turn red, then lowered his eyes and softened his voice slightly.
"Go back to the People's Liberation Army and put away your arrogant habits! Defeat the Tlaxcalans, Mixtecs, and Totonacs. What kind of skill is that! The Alliance's Jaguar Chapter and Eagle Chapter , the royal family’s Bronze Armor Legion is the real elite in the world.”
"The king's envoys and the noble chiefs of Totonak are handled by the Supreme Highness. Now, there is no one in Nishui City who can stand in the way!"
"Ah? Boss, what do you mean?"
Hearing this, Red Deer raised his head, and a look of joy appeared on his face after being startled.
"Does it mean that the soldiers can let go of their hands and feet?"
"Um."
Black Wolf's eyes were deep, and he glanced at the obedient Red Deer, his voice cold and firm.
"Deal with all the captured feathered serpent priests from the tribes of Qinbo Ali! Clean up all the temples in this city, and use all the property for military purposes!"
"I'll listen to you, boss."
"Recruit another 2,000 men from the 20,000-strong tribe of Ershuicheng! All men over 15 years old will be sent to the army. If there are not enough, use strong women to make up the number!"
"Hiss! Recruit another 2,000 men?! Good! I'll listen to you, boss."
"Open the warehouses in the city and take all the property in the city! The local noble chiefs have left and will never come back. Confiscate their longhouses and houses for me! Give each of the recruited warriors of the Ershui tribe a piece of cotton cloth. Give each of the captured men a basket of food! If any chief dares to resist, arrest them all!"
Hearing these arrangements, Red Deer Masat smiled happily and even forgot the pain on his face. He half-prostrated on the ground, raised his head high, and agreed loudly.
"Ah! Praise the Lord, praise the generous leader! We all listen to you, Black Wolf Leader!"
"After the treatment, let go of the warriors' hands and feet, and let them all have a full meal for three days! Pull out the noble women in the city and let the brave warriors enjoy them! After three days, hold a ceremony for me to sacrifice the rebellious leader with blood. The army will go south to attack Jinwan City! Red Deer, do you remember everything?"
"I remember everything! Leader, I will let the wolves eat and drink enough, and prepare for hunting and fighting!"
"Well! Roll, hurry up and do it!"
"Listen to you, leader!"
Red Deer rolled twice before standing up and running quickly towards the city. Soon, the warriors in Ershui City mobilized. Fierce shouts rang out in various camps and gradually spread to the city, like a group of beasts awakening from sleep.
Black Wolf Toltec did not look back, but just stood up and looked at the southeast coast, like a lone wolf standing proudly on the top of a mountain. He stared silently for a long time, pulled out the obsidian dagger from his waist, followed the ancient ritual, and prayed a few words in a low voice. Then, without hesitation, he cut his handsome cheek and made a bloody oath.
"God bless you! This time, I will defeat the Totonak coalition and kill all the tribes to surrender! If I succeed, I will sacrifice the blood of the descendants of the gods and worship the respected God! If I fail, let me bleed and die happily on the seashore!"
"Your Highness, I am your sharp blade, I will move forward bravely and will never leave myself a way out! And now, I have no way out!"
