"Your Highness, the copper pipe you are holding is so shiny that one end is bigger than the other and it is so shiny..."
"Oh! Black Wolf, this is the latest masterpiece of the Institute of Divine Inspiration, the 'Divine Eye Telescope'! It can magnify distant scenery several times, as if it is right in front of you!"
On the hill by the sea, Shulot smiled and handed the one-meter-long copper pipe in his hand to the black wolf Toltec.
"Come! Take a look too!"
"Ah! Divine Eye Telescope? Divine Qi Institute's...new magical weapon?"
Toltec took a deep breath and cautiously took the long tube. He carefully stretched out his hand and touched the two convex transparent crystals on both ends of the long tube, one large and one small, as if he was touching a strange object with mysterious power.
"Oh! Hei Lang, these two transparent convex lenses are carefully polished by the jade craftsmen of Shenqi Institute, using natural transparent crystal as material! The larger side is the 'objective lens', facing the objects outside.
The small side is the 'eyepiece', facing the eyes..."
"The magnification factor is the focal length of the objective lens divided by the focal length of the eyepiece. The specific principles include the focal length of convex lenses, concave lenses, light and virtual and real imaging... I have written a new small book called "Introduction to Divine Optics"
", if you are interested, you can learn a thing or two..."
Shulot explained it carefully for a while, looking at Hei Lang's confused eyes and suddenly trembling arms. He couldn't help but smile, shook his head, and patted his beloved general on the shoulder.
"Haha! Forget it, you don't need to learn specific optics... Well! Hei Lang, this kind of telescope is very convenient for marching and fighting. You just need to be able to use it... Yes, put one eye on the eyepiece, raise the telescope levelly, and look at it.
Just look at the fleet in the distance and you’ll know!…”
"Hey! Is the sea above and the sky below?...Ah! What a big ship, just like in front of me!... Lord God! Is this gorgeous band of colorful light a rainbow dropped by the gods?... This! Lord God bless you!
What a magical magical weapon!!”
Hei Lang closed one eye, held the long tube with both hands, moved for a moment, and saw the inverted sea and sky, the suddenly enlarged Navy flagship, and the "false color ribbons" on both sides of his field of vision.
"Yes! This kind of divine eye telescope is composed of two convex lenses, which will form an inverted real image. Its lenses are easier to process and the field of view will be very wide. It is more suitable for maritime and land combat observation... As for the false color bands on both sides...
In fact, it is the different colors of light dispersed by the refraction of light, which is chromatic aberration..."
Shurot touched his chin, recalling his past knowledge of optics, with a somewhat emotional expression. In fact, what he asked the craftsmen to polish and assemble was based on the optical knowledge he remembered from junior high school, using two convex lenses of different sizes.
The simplest "Kepler telescope". According to his calculations, the magnification of this telescope should be only 4-5 times.
However, when this "ancient" telescope was actually formed, he discovered that the age gap in basic materials science was so huge that it profoundly affected all aspects of manufacturing. He could not make a standard prism to install in the telescope.
It allows the inverted real image to be easily reflected and straightened. He also cannot make double-glued achromatic lenses. White light will naturally disperse into colored light after passing through the lens. Therefore, the image of the telescope will inevitably be blurred at the edges, forming a false image with obvious chromatic aberration.
Color ribbon.
"God bless you!... I have asked the craftsmen to lengthen the long tube, use less convex lenses, and reduce the blurred ribbons on both sides as much as possible. But with the current craftsmanship... cough! Black Wolf, you should use the middle
Look, see it more clearly!…”
"Okay!...It's so big! Ah! Your Highness, I saw that guy! It's so clear and so big! I can shoot an arrow through his...cough!...With such a magic weapon, I can look for it in the distance in the future.
It’s really much easier to observe the enemy’s formation if you don’t have enough enemies!…”
Black Wolf Toltec stopped in time and suppressed the murderous intention that he unconsciously revealed. With the assistance of this "divine eye weapon", he could still clearly see the flagship even from a distance of hundreds of meters.
Priest Papu wearing the feather crown priest robe. At this moment, Priest Pappu is holding the staff high, as if shouting something on the flagship.
"Gods bless you! Ancestors bless you! Assault! Assault! Landing assault!..."
"All warriors and sailors, please land! For the sake of the gods and ancestors, attack the hillock and seize the royal flag!..."
Following the impassioned order from Priest Papu, the morale of the Totonak Navy was boosted and they quickly docked towards the seaside. More than two thousand tribal warriors and sailors jumped from large ships and small boats one after another and boarded the shallow beach.
The Mexican Guards warriors in the formation were silent and did not react at all. They just allowed the hostile navy to land on the shore, gather and reorganize.
"All aboard! Don't leave any manpower on the ship! This is the last chance for the Totonac tribes. The entire army must be pressed forward and go all out!..."
Priest Papu shouted loudly, gathering more than 500 soldiers and sailors loyal to him, as well as dozens of important shipwrights, to his side. Then, he looked at the more than 1,000 Hidden Snake City warriors who had completely landed.
They shouted loudly again.
"Go forward! Follow me forward! Go to the hill where the king's flag is flying! Under the Mexica's Temple of Death, there..."
On the hillock, Shulot watched with great interest the shouts and performances of Priest Papu. He had discovered that the more than two thousand Totonak navy in front of him were clearly divided into two parts. The Hidden Snake Warriors occupied the main force.
They, filled with tragic murderous intent, marched towards the hillock with desperate shouts. However, the remaining tribal warriors and sailors remained silent and quietly distanced themselves from the warriors.
"Interesting! Interesting! This Pappu seems to be unable to control his hidden snake warriors?...But even so, he still brought me people and boats..."
Shulot smiled and saw that all the Totonac navy had come ashore, so he waved the red flag in his hand vigorously. Then, two squatting tiger cannons suddenly fired into the sky, making two thunderous cannons.

Bursts of gunfire, carrying a long-agreed message, spread to the distance. In the bay a few miles to the northwest, three thousand Donghai Marines had been waiting for a long time. The naval commander Nuohuyu stood on the bow of the ship holding a spear. She listened.
When he heard the sound of the cannon, there was no joy on his face, he just calmly waved his spear and pointed it forward.
"Blessed by the Lord God! The whole army goes out! Go and receive the big ship that is 'sent'!..."
"The Lord God bless us! The whole army attacks!"
At the same moment, almost the same shouts suddenly rang out from the water stronghold on the seaside. Then, another two thousand elite guardsmen emerged from the solid water stronghold. They were divided into two teams of a thousand people, with clear goals and footsteps.
Without stopping, they headed directly towards the retreat of the landing navy to outflank them!
"Go forward! Follow me! For the sake of the gods and ancestors, charge towards the enemy's royal flag. This battle will lead to death or death!..."
Facing the newly emerged enemy, Priest Papu held up his staff, shouted generously, and ran with great strides. He took hundreds of his followers and ran for a full moment from the coast where he landed, all the way to the hill where the king's flag was located.
He was only a hundred steps away from the king! And a hundred steps behind him, more than a thousand hidden snake warriors showed their determination to die. Following the heroic commander, they rushed into the encirclement of four thousand guards!
"Um?"
Looking at the two thousand naval forces who were making a desperate attack and getting closer and closer, Shulot frowned and quietly retreated behind the shield guard Ters. Then, he narrowed his eyes and stared at Pa, who was charging forward.
Priest Pu slowly raised a hand. Following his movements, more than fifty longbow guards who were good at shooting all raised their big bows and aimed at Priest Pu Pu who was a hundred steps away!
"Well!…"
Priest Papu was keenly aware of the danger. He immediately stopped and looked around at the distance between the front and rear military formations. Feeling that it was almost done, he pulled off his priest's feather crown, took off his gorgeous feathered serpent robe, and threw it away vigorously.
On the ground, it is like throwing away some worthless garbage and burden.
Then, under the countless disbelieving and horrified looks of four thousand Imperial Guards and more than two thousand Hidden Snake City navy, he suddenly took out a flag from his arms and waved it vigorously. As the sea breeze blew, the flag
The long dark green feathers suddenly revealed on the flag, and the burly figure holding a throwing spear and shield showed everyone that this was the sacred flag of the main god of Mexica!
“God bless you!…”
Priest Papu was impassioned and shouted loudly. He used all his strength to let the shouts echo in front of the hill. And all the sounds on the battlefield fell silent for an instant with his shouts, like falling into a silent night.
Same as in.
"Surrender! We...surrender!!..."
"Under the mighty and supreme Temple of Death! Your humble servant Pappu, is willing to kneel down under your divine flag and offer you all my loyalty and soul!..."
"The most high...Lord God witnesses! We are willing to...surrender to you!..."
