Chapter 571 Mixtec Tribes, Highlands, Lowlands and Coast
"...The original god came from chaos. She was one body with two faces, and had the image of a deer head, which was the Deer One Day God. She separated heaven and earth, divided mountains and rivers, stripped away light and darkness, and created the origin of the world! Then,
Her two incarnations multiplied with each other, giving birth to four creation gods, namely Dzahui, the rain god, Tonatiuh, the sun god, Cohuy, the feathered serpent god, and Mikrant, the death god.
Mitecuhtli..."
"In addition to the four gods of creation, there are also the god of fire Huvet Otel, the god of fertility Nitoayuta, and the god of wealth Yozotoyua... In fact, Mexica
The origin of the gods is quite similar to that of the Mixtec gods. Both belong to the Nahua faith, and may be incarnations of each other..."
Hearing this series of awkward names of Mixtec gods, Black Wolf felt dizzy. His eyes were a little impatient and he gave the young priest a cold look.
"Tell the important point!"
"Yes Yes."
The young priest nodded repeatedly. He licked his dry lips and carefully recited the inherited epic.
"...The four gods created all things in the world. The Rain God and Quetzalcoatl mated in the cave of the Tree in the Clouds, and gave birth to the ancestors of our Mixtecs! The specific location is about two to three hundred meters south of the Shenshi City.
Here, the sacred Cloud Altar of Yunshan City..."
"The Mixtec ancestors of the Goddess needed land to reproduce, and the land belonged to the sun god Tonatiu. So the ancestors of the Gods had a duel with the Sun God and shot Tonatiu with a bow and arrow. The sun god Tona
Tiu was seriously injured and on the verge of death, so he hid behind the mountains in the west, and then the sun set!..."
"Huh? The Goddess shot the sun and caused the sunset?"
Hearing this, Black Wolf was a little surprised. In the Mexica Alliance, which worships the sun god, such disrespectful myths would never be spread.
"Yes, yes! Bows and arrows are weapons invented by the Mixtec ancestors, and were later learned by the Tlaxcalans who went south. Nobles from various states usually collect several bows and arrows and use them in sacred sacrifices. This
In the past two years, the alliance's longbow has begun to spread among the nobles..."
Having said this, the young priest puffed up his chest proudly, and then quickly arched his head with a sneer on his face.
"Of course, the sun god is also the god we worship... Quetzalcoatl is in charge of corn and passed on the knowledge of planting to our ancestors. The rain god controls wind and rain and gives us rain and dew. Corn fields were cultivated in the highlands, lowlands and coasts.
Our ancestors have multiplied and multiplied for thousands of years, experienced four eras and the end, and now we have the Mixtec tribes today!"
Black Wolf's eyes flashed. He keenly captured three key words.
"Highlands, Lowlands and Coast?"
"Ah! The wise Mexica general..."
The young priest nodded respectfully. He glanced at the old priest's body on the ground and did not dare to hide anything.
"The Mixtec tribes, in general, can be divided into three categories according to the location where they gather: highland Mixtecs, lowland Mixtecs, and coastal tribes."
"The highland Mixtec people live in the mountains in the clouds. They have the oldest inheritance and worship the two holy places in the north and south! Among them, the sacred stone city in the north worships the temple in the clouds, which is the head of the tribe. The entire Twa
According to the number of mobilized warriors, there are at least 160,000 to 70,000 tribes in the Kan Valley area! And Yunshan City (Yodzocahi), two to three hundred miles to the south, houses the Temple of the Clouds Sanctuary, which is extremely high and has about 60,000 to 70,000 people."
"In the highlands of Mixtec, there are Shenshi City and Yunshan City. There are more than 200,000 people in total."
Hei Lang looked to the south, where he saw green mountains. He thought silently in his mind and wrote down this valuable information.
"go on!"
"The Mixtecs in the lowlands are generally located in the west and south of the highlands. The core of the lowlands is naturally the prosperous capital of the alliance, Huajuapan, a city of mountains and rivers! Huajuapan, a city of mountains and rivers, is more than two hundred miles southwest of Shenshi City.
There are also 1340000 people in the Huapan Valley. It is also a prosperous place for gold, silver, and turquoise production, and has the most outstanding gold and silver craftsmen in the world. In fact, in the classical era of the second era, it
There is another name, Mine City!"
"Shanhe City!...more than two hundred miles southwest...gold and silver mines..."
Hearing about the capital of the Mixtec Alliance, Black Wolf's eyes glowed with a strong desire to fight. The surrounding canine generals' eyes glowed red, making no secret of their murderous intent and greed.
"..."
The young priest shrank his neck, and a chill ran down his spine. He paused for a moment, and then continued in a low voice until the Mexica commander looked at him.
"The lowland Mixtec area is vast. Two hundred miles west of Shanhe City is Huamuxtitlán, a place rich in fruits. This settlement has about 80,000 or 90,000 tribes. Three hundred miles southwest of Shanhe City is Huamuxtitlán.
Ahuatepec is a place with oak trees and a river for washing. There are also more than 80,000 tribes in the valleys along the river."
"Yeguo City and Oak Valley City both follow the tributaries of the Talsas River and go down the river to the coast. As for the three to four hundred miles due south of Mountain River City, it is the boundary between the lowlands and the coast. Smoke Valley
City (Pu). Similarly, there are eighty or ninety thousand people here."
"Lowland Mixtec, Mountain River City, Yeguo City, Oak Valley City, Smoke Valley City..."
Black Wolf frowned and tried to restore the location of the city-state in his mind. After a while, he gritted his teeth and grabbed the young priest's clothes.
"You, what you said is so messy, I can't remember it at all. Quick, draw it for me!"
"...yes."
The young priest lowered his head and did not dare to refute. He took out a long pen made of feathers, dipped it in Mayan blue dye, and began to draw on the wooden boards of the temple.
After a while, Hei Lang looked at the pictures and then suddenly realized.
Follow the water valley city where His Highness is, fight all the way south, and conquer the Quagmire Village. Below are Yeguo City and Oak Valley City. There are undulating mountains all the way, and the terrain is very difficult to navigate. The logistics of the army can only rely on the rivers and twists and turns.
Going south. And that Yangu City is five hundred miles away from the Shenshi City here, and there are mountain roads along the way, which is extremely far.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The entire lowland Mixtec has four large cities and nearly 400,000 mountain tribes, distributed over 40,000 to 50,000 square kilometers of land. According to 300,000 people supporting 10,000
The ratio of warriors to warriors is about 13,000 warriors, and there are at least twice that number of militiamen.
"Damn it! These Mixtec lands in the south are full of dangerous mountains and forests. It's really a barren land!"
Hei Lang stared at the priest's map and cursed in his heart. However, the even more desolate places were still to come.
"Coast Mixtec is relatively long and narrow. Going south along the tributaries of the Tarsus River until you reach the vast lake is the westernmost city, Ometepec. Twin Mountain City is seven or eight hundred miles away from Shenshi City, and the surrounding area is actually
There are no mountains, only two hills. The city-state is surrounded by coastal lowland rain forests, and it is estimated that more than 80,000 forest tribes gather there. Seventy miles south of Shuangshan City is the Hedou City (icuilapa) by the sea, which produces various products.
Grow delicious beans.”
"Going south from the Cloud Mandala, along the extremely steep Cloud River (i.e. Rio Viejo), six hundred miles away, you will reach the eastern city of Mixtec on the coast, where more than 100,000 tribes gather. That is the immortal unity
The city-state founded by our ancestor King Deer and Tiger Claw, the great Black Temple of Heaven, Tututepec!”
Having said this, the young priest looked a little excited. He temporarily forgot about the terrible Mexica commander, and his eyes were full of yearning and reverence.
"It was the most influential southern Mixtec city-state before the end of the Fourth Age! The immortal Tiger Claw King was also the only king in the entire three thousand years of Mixtec epics who unified the highlands, lowlands and coasts.
!”
"...Unfortunately, the end of the Fourth Era came mercilessly after King Tiger Claw went to the Kingdom of God. Drought enveloped the earth, food production was reduced, and the states fell into division again! As for today's Mixtec Alliance,
We have the name of an alliance, but we have different thoughts and do not belong to each other... Hey! O skylark in the clouds, you have beautiful colors and moving wings. However, in front of the fierce jaguar, you are just being
