Chapter 1329: Every Citizen Is a Soldier?

Wen Pin was immediately interested when he heard Himiko say that the most important part of the Sea God Festival was that the army offered livestock to the Sea God.

Wen Pin, who was originally worried that the merchants did not get any useful information from the people of Yamatai, immediately decided to accept Himiko's invitation and participate in the Sea God Festival.

It's really a sleepy time and someone gave me a pillow!

Wen Pin was in a good mood now.

He could directly see the number of Yamatai's troops and the quality of the armor and swords equipped by the Yamatai army. This was very useful information for Wen Pin.

"Since the queen has invited me so kindly, and I also think that the scene of the Sea God Festival will be very grand, I'm afraid I will regret it if I don't participate, hahaha!"

Then Wen Pin said to Himiko.

Seeing that Wen Pin had taken the bait, Himiko felt relieved and said to Wen Pin:

"With General Wen participating in the Sea God Festival, I believe that the fleet led by the general will not encounter any storms on the way back to Wei."

"Hahaha, thanks to the queen's good words!"

Wen Pin laughed happily.

Soon, the military parade of Yamatai, known as the Sea God Festival, will begin.

In the Yamatai Palace, Himiko is reading the sacrificial article.

She wrote this article last night.

While reciting, Himiko is still thinking about what will happen to Wen Pin's expression after seeing the Yamatai army.

Now Wen Pin feels the solemn atmosphere inside and outside the palace, and thinks of the time when he and his fleet encountered a storm on the sea.

The power of heaven and earth cannot be stopped by human power.

After Himiko finished reciting the sacrificial article, the group left the palace and went to the seaside.

Although the people of Yamatai did not know what Sea God Festival was today, they were still very willing to join in the fun.

For a while, the people in the whole city followed Himiko's team to the seaside.

The real highlight is about to be staged!

Wen Pin followed Himiko and the officials of Yamatai to the seaside, still looking around.

He was looking for the army of Yamatai, but unfortunately the road was full of Yamatai people who were watching the excitement.

Wen Pin didn't even see the shadow of the army.

After arriving at the seaside, Himiko recited another sacrificial text again.

".Sea God, protect this place!"

After the sacrificial text was finished, Himiko, dressed in a gorgeous dress and wearing a crown, turned around and shouted:

"Offer livestock to sacrifice to the sea god!"

With Himiko's order, drums sounded in the distance.

"Dong! Dong! Dong!"

The people who came to watch were instantly attracted by the deep drum sound coming from afar.

Wen Pin also cast his eyes in the direction of the drum sound, thinking that the Sea God Festival organized by Yamatai was quite full of momentum.

Then Wen Pin saw a scene that shocked him.

After the drum sound, the Yamatai soldiers wearing armor and holding sharp swords appeared.

The tied pigs, cattle, sheep and other livestock were constantly wailing.

Behind them, there was a Yamatai army that stretched as far as the eye could see!

"Ah, this."

At this moment, Wen Pin's eyes widened, his mouth slightly opened, and he didn't know what to say.

The Yamatai army in front of him must be at least more than 10,000 people.

When the number of people exceeds 10,000, there is no end in sight!

It took half an hour for the vanguard of the army to arrive at the beach where Himiko was, accompanied by the sound of drums, with the livestock used to sacrifice to the sea god.

Himiko glanced at Wen Pin's position with her peripheral vision.

I saw Wen Pin looking at the army coming from a distance with a shocked expression on his face.

"Hehe."

Himiko chuckled in her heart, retracted her gaze and continued with the next step.

"Prepare the five animals, sacrifice to the sea god!"

Amid Himiko's loud shouts, the Yamatai soldiers in the front row put the livestock around them on the prepared boats.

The boat was already full of grass and wood, and the livestock were placed in the soft grass and wood, and they immediately became quiet.

These animals had been fed with strong liquor beforehand, and the alcohol began to take effect.

"Light the fire!"

At Himiko's command, a raging fire ignited on the small wooden boat carrying the animals, and it sailed towards the depths of the sea

"God of the Sea, protect this place!"

Looking at the boat sailing towards the depths of the sea, Himiko shouted again.

Then tens of thousands of Yamatai soldiers also shouted:

"God of the Sea, protect this place!"

"God of the Sea, protect this place!!"

"God of the Sea, protect this place!!!"

Wen Pin was completely numb in the midst of the louder and louder shouts.

He had previously estimated that Yamatai had at most 10,000 soldiers.

And Yamatai was still short of steel.

Himiko had told him personally before that some people in Yamatai did not have iron pots and kitchen knives.

But now, wherever Wen Pin saw, all the soldiers of Yamatai were wearing armor and holding swords.

They did not look like they were short of steel at all.

So all the steel in Yamatai was used to make armor and weapons for the soldiers? !

Wen Pin couldn't help but have a ridiculous idea in his mind.

He must report this news to Cao Cao as soon as possible!

Then a strong idea arose in Wen Pin's mind.

This Yamatai is definitely not a soft persimmon!

If you rashly send troops to attack Yamatai, you will definitely suffer a great loss!

Then Wen Pin calmed down and began to observe the army of Yamatai carefully.

According to Wen Pin's experience, the number of troops of Yamatai is at least 20,000.

If he saw an army of 20,000 in Wei, Wen Pin might not have any fluctuations in his heart.

After all, he was also a veteran who followed Cao Cao in the north and south.

But when he saw an army of 20,000 in Yamatai, which he thought was a weak chicken, Wen Pin was only shocked.

To support 20,000 soldiers with the power of an island country can be said to be excessive.

Now Wen Pin understands why Himiko said that some people in Yamatai can't use iron pots.

The steel used to make the armor needed by these 20,000 soldiers can be said to be an astronomical figure at this time.

"Fortunately, not everyone wears iron armor."

Wen Pin found that among the soldiers of Yamatai, only the first ones were wearing iron armor, and most of the soldiers behind were wearing leather armor, and some were wearing cloth armor.

After Himiko held a ceremony to worship the sea god, it was evening.

The setting sun paved a golden road on the sea.

The people of Yamatai kept cheering in words that Wen Pin could not understand.
