Chapter 951 The Fall of Haenyeo Castle and the Departure of the Royal Legion
It's already late spring on the seaside in April. The spreading grass and trees, the harvested soybean fields, and the geese migrating south all symbolize the vitality. On the Mexica Plateau, it's a verdant scene in mid-spring.
.The burned forests along the lake, the tribes migrating eastward, and the large groups of militiamen transporting food are constantly expanding the Mexica Alliance's control over the land of Tlaxcala!
Tens of thousands of royal regiments finally marched from the Texcoco Lake area after two years of silence. The dark green and white gold tide spread to important places in all directions under the unpredictable will of the God King.
They suppressed the nobles of various states, paying attention to the changes in the current situation, and waiting for the promise of the kingdom... Whether they welcomed the triumph with enthusiasm or the cold murderous intent, it all depended on the thoughts of the two kings.
"Master, God bless you! The latest good news from Zicao County! The Zicao Army led by Yin Etalik of Zicao County already broke through the Haenyeo City of the Southeast Tekos Tribes a month ago! The Zicao Army killed three thousand warriors
, captured nearly 40,000 Tekos tribesmen...the southeastern Tekos coast of more than two hundred miles has been completely under the control of the kingdom!"
"Oh?! Veteran Etalik, attacked Haenyeo Castle?"
Hearing such good news, Shulot was refreshed. He took the documents that had been transported thousands of miles away and couldn't wait to read them.
The sea girl city of the Tekos tribe in the southeast is at the mouth of the Talsas River, more than two hundred miles southeast. During the first southern expedition, the kingdom's scouts had already spied on the details of the tribes there. Black
Wolf Toltec once wanted to send troops to conquer. However, the kingdom's foundation on the southern coast was not yet solid at that time, so he gave up temporarily.
A few years later, the Lake Kingdom moved and stationed 20,000 to 30,000 Tlaxcala flag troops at the mouth of the Talsas River, and established dozens of villages to provide food for the army. Enter
Trout Town on the west side of Haikou has developed into an important smelting town where three thousand warriors are stationed, guarding the vital Black Rock Mountain iron ore area. The smelting workshops around the iron ore are continuously providing cheap iron.
, promoting the colonization and development of the kingdom...
The divine priest Nellie, together with the Trapanic merchant Trali, disguised themselves as long-distance merchants and set out from the mouth of the Tarsus River at the beginning of last year to explore the coastal areas of Mixtec and Zapotec.
They passed through the Ama City of the Tecos in the southeast, the Fengyuan City of the Trapanic, the Hedou City of the Mixtec, and the Black Mandala, and arrived at the Lushan City of the Zapotec until
After meeting the merchant fleet from the Mayan city-state in the southern highlands, we returned successfully at the end of last year!
The flag team was properly arranged and the food harvest was sufficient. The newly surrendered Tlaxcala tribe was eager for the opportunity to join the army and be awarded military honors and land. And the intelligence along the way was also collected properly. Yin Etalik of Zicao County did not hesitate.
, led 5,000 Lithospermum legions, recruited 5,000 Tlaxcala flag troops, and launched a crusade against the Tecos people in the southeast!
"Your Highness! Under the bombardment of the ten newly built thunder cannons in the royal capital, in just three months, more than a dozen wooden fortresses of the Tekos tribes in the southeast were wiped out. Tens of thousands of tribes either died or surrendered.
And the fortified Haenyeo Castle also declared its fall!…”
"Under the auspices of the priest of the main god, more than 40,000 captured Tekos tribesmen took a blood oath to convert and became believers of the main god. According to my plan, 15,000 of them will be rewarded serfs, and 3,000 for meritorious service will be rewarded.
Tlaxcala warriors! Later, these named Tlaxcala warriors will be promoted to third-level warriors, and will be granted land and settled in the Ama City area. They will serve as a reliable root system for the kingdom to rule there and manage the newly surrendered Southeast Tekos tribe...
"
"As for the remaining 30,000 people, seven large flag teams of more than 4,000 people and seventy small flag teams of more than 400 people will be established and stationed in the three hundred miles of mountains and forests from Haenyeo City to Yuyu Town.
On the seashore. They will be managed by the kingdom's missionary priests and warrior flag captains, and will be brought under the direct rule of the kingdom! ... And I have sacrificed all the Tekos gods and priests who were originally in charge of the tribe, and eradicated them..."
Seeing the plan of the veteran Etalik, Shulot nodded slightly. Etalik has been sitting in Zicao County for eight or nine years, settling immigrants and integrating various tribes. Now in order to open up the sea route to the southern continent, he
Finally got the chance to go out to fight and show off his skills. And this move showed the ruthlessness of "Old Ginger".
"Your Highness! The three thousand Tlaxcala warriors were enfeoffed and granted fields, and the more than 100,000 Eastern Expedition immigrants who moved into Zicao County have finally been completely integrated into the order of the kingdom, and people's hearts have been completely stabilized! The more tribes surrendered, the more the army expanded.
If there are more, foreign conquests become more necessary! And if we can fight a battle, receive pensions for those who died in battle, reward the warriors who have made meritorious services, and grant slaves to the captured tribes, it will save several years of integration and sorting out time..."
"According to the order you gave me last year, I planned to go all the way along the coast to conquer the Trapanic city of Fengyuan, then plunder the Mixtec city-states on the coast, and continue to open up the southeast sea route... Just... Talsas
The movements of the Alliance Royal Legion in the upper reaches of the river really make me a little worried, and I am also worried about your safety..."
"Um?"
Seeing this, Shulot was startled. He took a deep breath and continued reading, his brows furrowed deeply.
"After this year's New Year's Festival, the royal legions of the alliance went from the Texcoco Lake area to various states to station themselves. At the end of February, three elite legions of eight thousand royal warriors were already stationed at the Talsas River.
In the middle and upper reaches, suppress the three southern states of the alliance respectively..."
"The three royal legions are located in Sun City in Lazico State, Salt Lake City in Sarco State, and Alpine City in Vactepec State...the full army of these three alliances is only a long river away from Talsas.
Two hundred miles! They are nominally stationed in the three southern states to intimidate the disloyal Mixtec tribes. But in fact, they can cut off the long river water transportation at any time, cut off your connection with the kingdom, and cut off your retreat route back to the kingdom...even
Go westward with the current and go straight to the south of the kingdom!"
"Relying on the central control of the alliance over the local states, the royal warrior army of 24,000 people can definitely recruit the same number or even more city-state armies! And the 'Yuyan' and 'Huashu' who are serving under your command
', 'Pan Python' and the three city-state legions. At this moment, their hometown and city-state are in the hands of the royal legion. They must only be loyal to the Alliance's God King Avite. If the God King issues a royal order... Every time I think of it
This place really makes me worry day and night, and I can’t sleep!”
