Chapter 792: The army attacks and surrounds Jinwan
The sun set over the horizon, and the battlefield reflected blood red. The corpses overlapped each other, and they were soaked in blood. The fighting was over, and the outcome was determined. Soon, more than a thousand warriors from the kingdom were escorting several times the number of Totonak prisoners.
, leaving from the adobe village near the river.
The captives were disgraced, with expressions of fear, obedience and numbness. When they walked out of the village gate and saw the bronze cannons in the Kingdom's military formation, they all showed unconcealable fear, as if they had seen terrifying ghosts and gods. From time to time, some captive warriors knelt down and bowed to them.
The golden "bronze beast" prays to the gods for forgiveness.
The black wolf Toltec looked cold, standing in front of the collapsed wall, looking at the head in his hand. The nostrils of the head were inlaid with horizontal strips of jade, the face was carved with red and blue tattoos, and his eyes were closed and bleeding.
.It is none other than the leader of the Eastern Totonak Alliance, the chief of the Hidden Snake Holy City, Kua Snake!
"What a head!"
Hei Lang looked at it for a moment, nodded slightly, and sighed in admiration. Then, he handed the head to the bodyguard beside him and gave a calm order.
"Uta, take care of this head and add it to my trophies!"
"Yes, boss!"
"God bless you! Have you counted the number of people who are coming and the surrendered troops?"
"Hei Lang leader, the five thousand defenders in the main stronghold are all warriors and warriors from Hidden Snake City. One thousand of them were seriously injured or killed in battle, more than 600 people rowed away, and the remaining 3,000 people were all gone.
surrender!"
In this era, it was impossible for seriously injured prisoners to obtain precious medicines, which was equivalent to death. The standard for minor or serious injuries was usually whether they could walk and whether they could be escorted back to the camp.
"Huh? We collected more than 3,000 surrendered troops?"
Hei Lang raised his brows, pondered for a moment, and then calmly gave the order.
"Go through all the surrendered troops, and execute all the noble chiefs and leaders among them! Then, according to the usual practice, let the priests accompanying the army convert the prisoners on the spot. Those who do not want to take a blood oath to convert, just sacrifice them directly!"
"Listen to you, boss! The priests accompanying the army have been prepared for a long time!..."
It was getting dusk, and the priests of the main god sang songs to pray to the gods and lit the blazing holy fire. The sacred conversion ceremony began.
Black Wolf remained calm and watched the ceremony of blood, fire and soul. He watched for a long time and was surprised to find that no one of the captives resisted this great conversion! Even the famous Totonak warrior in the city-state
He prostrated in awe at the feet of the priests who accompanied the army and lowered his once unruly head.
"Praise the Lord God! The Totonac people's faith finally collapsed under the 'divine punishment' of the artillery! They bent down and fell to the ground. This time their surrender will come from the depths of their souls!..."
The conversion ceremony was completed in the curling blue smoke. The army priest Taisier looked happy and reported back to the Black Wolf Commander. With an excited look and a wise light shining in his eyes, he walked to the heavy mortar and announced loudly.
"I want to write a letter to His Highness... This is the bronze beast of divine punishment. It is a weapon for siege and even a missionary weapon! Its thunder and stone bullets will break down the cities and walls of all tribes in the world.
Faith! Therefore, to spread the glory of the Lord God, we need more and thicker cannons!..."
Two days later, Shulot received news of the Black Wolf Legion's victory in the Snake Lake Village camp, and also saw a letter from the priests accompanying the army. He burst into laughter, walked out of the commander's tent, and looked at the plains, coasts and jungles in the southeast.
He knew that a "fruit" that was about to ripen was about forty miles southeast. And after "eating" this fruit, there were more fruits heading east along the coast to the land of Maya!
"King's order! The army moves out! March to the southeast, pull out the surrounding small villages one by one, and completely surround Jinwan City!"
The wind was blowing, and the war drums were beating. When the news of the fall of the adobe village reached Jinwan City, the chiefs of the various tribes in Totonac fell into fierce quarrels. Such a strong adobe village only held on for three days!
Under the "divine punishment" of the Mexicans, thousands of legions in the Holy City of Hidden Snake were completely destroyed. Even Chief Kua Snake died in the stronghold!
Faced with such a terrible offensive, the chiefs of the Eastern Seaboard tribes immediately thought of retreating. Qiqini, the chief of the Jinwan tribes, tried to persuade several chiefs to stay, but almost got into a fight. Soon, the two
On the more than a hundred Totonac war boats, there were more warriors from the city-state retreating eastward.
However, the Mexica army controlled the port and coast of the Adobe River. The Totonac boatmen had to row fifty miles eastward along the coast before the retreating warriors could land. The boatmen rowed for two days, making a round trip of hundreds of miles.
In order to transport a thousand tribal warriors, only two days later, three thousand kingdom warriors crossed the river eastward, further sweeping the eastern coast, making it difficult for the Totonac boatmen to dock.
Five days later, several military strongholds around Jinwan City were defeated by the Kingdom's army, and another two thousand surrendered troops were captured. The thunder of the Mexica people's "God's Punishment" also spread more panic in Jinwan City.
The kingdom's army surrendered six to seven thousand warriors and warriors one after another, and the number has expanded to 34,000! Among them, the proportion of Totonak's surrendered troops was nearly half.
"The faith of the Lord God is spreading in the land of Totonak! And the Golden Bay City in front of us is shrouded in the light of divine power!"
In late February, Shulot led an army to arrive at the gates of Jinwan City and joined forces with Black Wolf's legion. He looked at the surrendering troops of the tribes one after another, looked at the emblem of the Lord God on their foreheads, and nodded with satisfaction.
Subsequently, the kingdom's legions set up forts and surrounded the coastal city-state, leaving only the east side near the sea. The Prepecha warriors boarded the captured war boats and along the coast controlled by the kingdom, fought with Totona
The enemy's boatmen fought and fought. Since then, the last escape route of Jinwan City was completely blocked by the kingdom after three or four thousand warriors escaped!
"In Golden Bay City, there are the last 20,000 Totonak coalition forces, including the leaders and chiefs of each country!..."
The king's flag of the Black Wolf, the God of Death, was set up outside the Golden Bay City. Shulot climbed up the hill and looked at the various garrison troops at the top of the city. He looked at the flags of the coastal city-states and smiled on his face. This is the harvest of the "fisherman"
With a smile on his face, he lifted the net and saw a lot of "big fish".
"Golden Bay City...the Veracruz of later generations...now it is mine!"
Shulot whispered to himself, with fighting spirit in his eyes. He looked around at the generals, stepped forward in person, raised Black Wolf's arm, and praised his favorite general's military exploits. Black Wolf also held his head high, chest puffed out, confident
Excited again.
Afterwards, Shulot called the generals one by one, looked at the faces that were also eager to fight, and issued the king's order boldly.
"The whole army has been preparing for five days and preparing siege equipment! After five days, we will besiege from three sides and we will conquer this city! With the blessing of the Lord God, the kingdom will win!"
"With the blessing of the Lord God, the kingdom will surely win! The Lord God bless your majesty!..."
The generals fell to the ground, saluted, and left with a bang.
